Ceres (Johanverse)

Ceres (セレス, *Seresu*) is the Herrscher of the Brilliant Star, she was the result of the fusing of the Herrscher of Solar, Olga Marie Herrscher self, with the personality of Olga human self.

After the fusion of Olga Marie Herrscher's self with her human personality, Ceres was born, and possessed a heightened scale of power and memories from both sources. She was also known to be the former Herrscher of Solar and the current Herrscher of the Brilliant Star in Honkai: Nine Realm. Initially, Ceres was presumed to be dead after being killed by Arthur Pendragon, the Pillar of Glory. However, it was later revealed that Arthur was able to befriend her instead of killing her and made her the second Herrscher to join humanity. This surprising turn of events ultimately led to her stay in the pocket dimension Arthur created for her, where she could resist her impulses towards the destruction of humanity while still maintaining a deep-seated hatred for them.

Despite joining the Human side after the fuse of her human and herrscher personality, Ceres still carries a deep hatred toward all humans, but she was resisting her impulse to cause wide extinction of the human race solely due to the fact that doing so will burn the bridge between her and Arthur, something in which she rather dies than to let happen.

Due to her distaste for the Human race as a whole, as of the end of the series, Ceres has yet to leave the pocket dimension that's specially made by Arthur for her in the royal castle of Britain, she also has yet to show her face or talk to any other being other than her 4 Fragment and Arthur.

## Personality

Ceres' internal conflict between her deep-seated hatred towards humanity and her desire to maintain her good relationship with Arthur is a constant struggle. She understands the gravity of her actions, and the potential consequences that would follow if she were to act upon her impulses. However, the resentment she harbors towards humans cannot be easily overcome, and she struggles to reconcile her feelings towards them.

Despite her reluctance to interact with others, Ceres has grown attached to her four Fragments, who act as her loyal companions and confidantes. Their company provides her with a sense of comfort and security, as they are the only beings she feels she can truly trust.

Despite her self-imposed isolation, Ceres has been shown to be a powerful Herrscher, capable of altering the reality to her will with ease even from the inside of her pocket dimension. Her pocket dimension is said to be filled with wonders and mysteries beyond human comprehension, and many have speculated that Ceres is using her powers to reshape the world in her own image from within the safety of her sanctuary.

Despite her hatred for humanity, Ceres is not without her sympathies. She has been known to show mercy to those who have earned her favor (Such as Arthur Pendragon), and has been rumored to have intervened on behalf of certain humans in the past (Cough\*Arthur\*Cough). However, it is unclear whether these acts of kindness were motivated by genuine compassion or simply a desire to further her own goals.

As for her relationship with Arthur, it is rumored that the two share a complex and tumultuous bond, filled with both love and animosity. Some speculate that Ceres is using Arthur as a means to an end, while others believe that the two truly care for each other on a deeper level.
