Beelzebub Meringue

**Beelzebub Meringue**(ベルゼブブメレンゲ *Beruzebubu Merenge*) is a non-playable character in *Hexad Powers: Cosmos Raid*. Following the player's match against Lazlo, she is the final boss of both Arcade and Timebattlers (or Clocksmashers in the update) Mode. She is a version of the original that was resurrected during her last moments on Earth. Fumiko Orikasa reprises this role from the anime.

Despite being an unplayable last boss, she still gains a nickname in *Cosmos Raid Excelsior*like the other fighters who make up the game's roster (except Divine Amigos). Her alias is **Transcendent Zeal**.

## Biography

*Conceived December 21. In spite of the childlike form she had throughout much of her longevity, Meringue was 30. Her stunted growth came about because of a lost artifact. The Incubus Ball, the artifact in question, could augment the strength and bring out latent potential within any holder so long as they were pure evil. Thanks to the combined efforts of Vivi Albright and one Derek Hobgoblin, that object was reduced to nothing. She was the brains of an ensemble that called themselves Neoshade Force. She always dreamt of destroying Fusionbuster City along with its denizens, so she assembled a team to help further this objective. They wouldn't realize until much later, however, that their leader saw them as pawns. After that WHAM moment struck, Meringue fought Vivi to the death, swallowing the Incubus Ball whole in a last-ditch effort. She was then beaten and cursed everybody that opposed her -- end of story.*

*Up to the point where she reclaimed her plot device, she conducted herself in a practical manner. She wore an aloof expression and liked to smoke. Following her betrayal of Neoshade , she did a 180 personality-wise, becoming more berserk, loud, and obscenely arrogant.*

*In the events of CR, she was revived! Greatly bristling with enmity toward those who challenged her ideals, this antagonism became so strong it paved the way for her return. Even with a decaying body and the Revenant Band triad long deceased, Meringue won't die satisfied until Fusionbuster ceases to exist.*
