Syou (tribal name: Sterk Hart) is an Animan originally born from the Vernigde Tribe. He is currently the president of Exodus, and holds many secrets that may drive one into insanity should they discover them. He aids the main cast through unconventional means, and sometimes sabotages them all in the name of toughening them up for the prophesized calamity. Syou is also a secret playable character and therefore cannot be used in main story scenarios.

Playstyle

Syou's playstyle is similar to Elysion's in which he can switch from a defensive role to an assault role mid battle. He is also a DoT specialist, capable of stacking burn statuses and igniting them all for burst damage. His ultimate, "Reality Inversion" is an automatic victory for any fights, including bosses. However, it cannot be used again until NG+.

Techniques

Flow Ability: Sacred Flame

At the beginning of battle, inflict a special "Burn" status to all enemies. This burn status cannot be cured and stays permanent until battle ends. Disappears once ignited.

Synergy

Aruke Enaru

Aruke adds additional DoT since her burn status can stack with Syou's. Syou can also ignite her burn statuses.

Background

Syou was originally a Karsandan human from the Vernigde Tribe 515 years ago. Around that time, the Imiwaki were also executing their plans for the Animan Project. Since Syou had the perfect DNA for the project, he was captured as a result. His genes were used to create the prototype Animan gene. This gene enabled any sentient being to commune with the Seraphim at will. Thus, allowing them to use some of their powers (including immortality). After his capture, his conscience was transferred into a new body in order to preserve his genes. After the Animan Project's demise, Syou woke up from his dormant body and started a new life.

Trivia

• Syou is the only character that has two Combat Styles among secret characters due to him canonically possessing a "Noah's Core".
