The Rapture Queen's Role in the Story
The Rapture Queen is the main antagonist and the core of the major conflict facing humanity in the game Goddess of Victory: Nikke. His role is very central and has an impact on the entire gaming world:

1. The Root Cause of All Disasters

• War Trigger: Queen 001 is identified as the "root of all causes" (the root cause of it all). This means he is the one responsible for creating and leading the Rapture army, a mechanical creature that forced humanity underground (Ark).
• Main Enemy: His presence marks the climactic battle that humanity and the Nikke have been waiting for and dreading, because he was the brains behind the invasion for hundreds of years.

2. Entities in Orbit

• Threat in the Sky: The image you included mentions him as an entity that has been around for a long time "orbiting, waiting" (circling in orbit, waiting). This shows that Queen 001 is not on the surface of the Earth, but in space, perhaps at a control station or Rapture headquarters.
• Remote Control: His position in orbit implies that he controls the entire Rapture army on Earth from afar, enabling him to oversee and coordinate larger strategies.

3. Connection with Heretic

• Heretic Creator: In the storyline, the Raptures are incredibly powerful and unique, known as Heretics (such as Chatterbox, Modernia, or Liberalio), are often closely associated with Queen. They are thought to be creations, direct subordinates, or even experiments of the Queen.
• Nayuta Relationship: There are new characters like Nikke Nayuta (Pioneer Squad member) who has an important role in tracking the Rapture Queen's movements through duplicate information gatherers, and even viewed the Rapture Queen as a "mother" figure—highlighting the complex biological or creational relationship.

4. Symbol of the Final Battle

• Climax Phase: The battle against the Rapture Queen is often the focus of major events, especially game anniversary celebrations (such as the "Goddess Fall" event). This positions it as the toughest test that the Nikke, including the legendary Nikke called the Pilgrims, have ever faced, to reclaim the Earth's surface. In short, The Rapture Queen is the “Final Boss” in the conflict between humanity and Rapture. He is not only an entity with incredible power, but also a mystery behind his origins, technology, and the purpose of the Rapture invasion itself.

Engagement Against Queen 001
Fight against Rapture Queen (Queen 001) is the climax of Nikke's main story that has been going on for several years. Hunting into Orbit: The Nikke, especially the strongest squads like Pilgrim and Pioneer (led by Nayuta), must launch a major operation to reach Queen 001's location in orbit.
Facing the Heretic: Before reaching the Queen, they must defeat the strongest Rapture forces, especially Heretic—who is considered to be the commander or direct subordinate of the Queen. The Key to Humanity: Victory over Queen 001 is the only way for humanity to regain Earth's surface and end the conflict, which has been going on for centuries. Anniversary game stories often focus on the efforts of the Pioneer team (consisting of several Pilgrims) to achieve and end this threat, with characters like Nayuta who have an emotional and important connection to this conflict.

Little is known about the Rapture Queen in the current storyline but it is known that she is the leader of the Raptures, mechanical beings that invaded Earth over a century ago. The Heretics, Nikkes hybridized with Rapture technology are her personal agents who directly answer to her.[1]

Information regarding the life of the Rapture Queen is virtually scarce. But she has been active since the first Rapture invasion.[2]

Red Ash
After the Raptures invaded Earth, the Goddess squad plans to eradicate the Rapture Queen to turn the tides of the war. However they are unable to trace her whereabouts. When an unusual amount of Raptures was detected, they then infer that the space station located at the end of the Lift may be the Rapture Queen's hiding spot.

Despite the squad's best efforts, the mission was an utter failure after Cinderella became corrupted and the increasing number of Raptures, deducing that destroying the Queen and capturing the Lift are impossible or mutually exclusive tasks.[2]

The Rapture Queen has the following aliases:
My Queen (by Chatterbox)
Queen of Hearts (by Alice)
Mother (by Liberalio)
Great Mother (by Nihilister)
Modernia's costume, 'Second Affection' shares the three stars symbol found in the Queen's forehead as well the numbering scheme on the clavicle.
Her torso have the words "soulless/heartless/bodyremains 0-001", with the star on the first 0 making it look like Q.

Nihilister explains to the protagonist that the Rapture Queen is implied to have been born out of maternal instincts, similarly to how Heretics are born out of their own desires. After being reminded of Nihilister's plea bargain, Nihilister brought up that "Lilith's body" is rumored to be located elsewhere.

Cinderella who has recently been freed from her Corruption decides to exterminate the Queen alongside with the remaining Old Tales squad. However while ascending from the Lift, the Rapture Queen fires an energy beam that separates both Cinderella and the Old Tales squad, leading her to fight the Queen alone. After a long battle, Cinderella was eventually defeated due to her overconfidence although she managed to sever the connection of the Lift with the space station.[5]

The Rapture Queen has been biding her time for a long time and has been orbiting around the planet. All Raptures draw their lineage from her and humanity's struggles stem from her influence. Befitting her majestic title, she has powers and abilities to match. The Queen is equipped with powerful regenerative abilities that even the most powerful attacks are easily shrugged off.

Rapture Queen (Queen 001) Ultimate Ability
Rapture Queen is one of the strongest enemies and is the supreme leader of the Raptures. Its core strengths revolve around control, massive damage, and challenging mechanics.

• Control over Rapture: As Queen, she has absolute control over the other Raptures and Heretics (Raptures born from Nikke), allowing him to coordinate attacks on a large scale.
• Wide Area (AoE) Damage & High Energy Projectiles: Rapture Queen often launches wide-ranging and destructive energy attacks that can target the entire Nikke squad, forcing players to take cover or use Burst Skills for defense.
• Critical Gimmick or Core Mechanics: Fights with him often involve unique mechanics that players must address, such as the following:
  • Destroying Critical Core: He may have some weak points (core) which must be destroyed within a certain time limit to stop a fatal attack or release its potential damage.
  • Instant Wipe Attack: Some battle phases may have attack mechanisms that if failed are interrupted (for example, by destroying all cores in time), will instantly wipe out the entire squad.
  • Environment/Battlefield Manipulation: In several important battles, He may use the surrounding terrain or create obstacles that make it difficult for Nikke to move or focus his attacks.
• Strong Immunity or Debuff: As a high level boss, He often has high resistance to some types of debuffs and has the ability to inflict powerful debuffs on Nikke (for example, reducing Attack or Defense).

You are a human who has a noble goal, namely to save the world from the Rapture's and destroy the Rapture's Queen to end all this. But even though it looks easy, it is a big risk because there have been so many victims who have fallen before Rapture's Queen, all of whom died horribly.

Raptures exist in all shapes and sizes; in the form of small and medium robots, flying drones, walking machines, animal-like mechs and numerous other forms. Most Rapture units use guns, turrets, and explosives to battle against humanity and Nikkes. They generally attack humans and Nikkes on sight, although some only respond to Nikkes such as the likes of Material H.

Initially, Raptures were purely mechanical in nature, but gradually incorporated organic matter that they had assimilated into their bodies. This physiology has existed since the first generation of Raptures. According to the Central Archives Center, the Raptures' weaponry is said to be far more technologically advanced than anything humanity has possessed in offensive, defensive, and mobile capabilities. The most powerful military forces in the world were left unable to stop their advances as a result of this.Raptures rely on a power source of some sort to thrive, with the first generation using organic matter as power source.[1] Unfortunately, some such as those who live in the depths of the ocean became dormant due to humanity fleeing into the Ark and the waters becoming scarce for a power source.[2]Raptures are notorious for a phenomenon otherwise known as "Corruption." By injecting a Corruption code into a Nikke usually through a tentacle-like appendage, the infected individual becomes a mindless puppet hell-bent in fighting against humanity. Corruption originally caused paralysis, but improvements within its code written by a specific traitor led to the evolution of the Raptures' infamous ability seen in the current story.[3] Notable symptoms of a corrupted Nikke feature red eyes, the tendency to utter repetitive words with disturbing vocal cords and the increasing risk of becoming an Irregular.[4][5] In the worse-case scenario, they transform into personal agents to serve the Rapture Queen. As such, these corrupted Nikkes were declared "traitors."[6]

It is currently unknown whether they are living beings from another planet or man-made automatons. They have been on the planet for at least a century and still occupy the surface to the present day. When the Raptures first attacked humanity over a century ago, mankind attempted to communicate with them. However, reasoning with such mechanical beings proved fruitless. With no choice but to combat the threat, the United Forces of Humanity was established to solve the crisis.[9] Humanity eventually suffered a catastrophic defeat when one of the second generation Grimms Model code-named "Cinderella" was corrupted and became the first known Heretic. As such, humanity was forced to retreat into the Ark.

In the early days of the invasion, the Raptures were simply referred to as "aliens" by humans, and were initially believed to be UFOs.[10] Few understood the nature of the threat, and believed that ordinary small arms were sufficient to deal with them.[11] There are also conspiracy theories claiming that the Raptures are not aliens, but 'failed creations' of the Big Three.[12]After the Ark was established at some point, humanity firmly believed that they were safe from Raptures after sheltering themselves in an underground haven. However, this was far from the truth— the Raptures always knew about the Ark and its location. It was revealed that Chatterbox, a unique Tyrant-class Rapture communicated with Enikk, the AI overseer of the Ark to create a deal: Enikk will provide Nikkes implanted with Chatterbox's corruption codes in exchange for the Raptures not attacking the Ark.[13]

While many people fear the Raptures like as if they're a death sentence to humanity due to their role in the invasion of Earth over a century ago, some more treacherous humans and Nikkes alike are willing to side with the Raptures such as a religious cult known as the Torch of Salvation who believe them to be gods.[14]

The Raptures are mechanical enemies that are currently the dominant species of the earth's surface and the main antagonists of Goddess of Victory: Nikke.

Based on the Over Zone and Red Ash events, here is an explanation of what happened to Liliweiss:
What Happened Before Liliweiss Disappeared?
As the leader of the Goddess Squad unit, Liliweiss is the first and strongest Nikke ever created. However, this incredible power puts a huge burden on his body.

• Death and Funeral: Liliweiss eventually "dies" (suffers irreparable systemic/biological damage). After she fell, the other members of the Goddess Squad, including Dorothy and Snow White, buried him in a secret location on the surface so that his body would not fall into the hands of humans (the Central Government) who wanted to dissect him, or into the hands of Rapture.
• Theft of the Body: Tragedy struck when his grave was discovered by the enemy. When the Goddess Squad members returned to check, they found that the tomb had been broken open and Liliweiss's head was missing.
  How Did the Queen of the Raptures Transform into Liliweiss?
  It is important to clarify that technically, the Queen of the Raptures did not "transform" into Liliweiss, but rather the Raptures used Liliweiss' body or consciousness as a "host" or primary foundation.
• Assimilation of Genetic Material: Rapture has the ability to assimilate human/Nikke technology and biological materials. By stealing Liliweiss's body parts (especially her head), Queen or the central entity of Rapture managed to integrate the DNA and combat data of the strongest Nikke into themselves.
• The Queen's Identity: In the latest story, it is revealed that the figure currently leading Rapture has a very similar appearance and memories to Liliweiss. However, she is no longer the Liliweiss who was known as the hero of mankind. It is a new entity that uses the Liliweiss "vessel" to destroy civilization.

He didn't carry any weapons while fighting against Raptures because he had very strong and extraordinary abilities. He can destroy the Raptures just by slashing his nested hands towards the Raptures making them cut in half or maybe into small pieces. He can destroy anything with a slash of his hand, no matter how hard the metal is, it is nothing compared to the power of his slash which can cut everything without touching it.
