House of Spiders

Appearance:Rufo is a tall and well-built woman with straight, dark blue, hair, featuring lengthy sidelocks and three white feathers resting on the left side of her head. Her dark complexion is marked with white face paint under her blue eyes and along the bridge of her nose. She wears a dress shirt beneath a suit jacket, and ankle-length skirt, all in the Ring's signature white color. Her left arm and right leg are composed of a chimeric blend of various animals ― including a claw apparently belonging to a bear, and a large, bird-like foot ― similar to other Fauvists. The seams between the different animals that make up each limb are covered in gold-trimmed strips of cloth decorated with snaking brushstrokes. Atop the left side of her waist hangs a set of polished teeth and blades. She has a large plume of fur for a tail, a white center silhouetted by a pale blue bunch of fur.

Rufo carries a stitched-together mask made of a white wolf, decorated with two separate pairs of horns. Its mouth is sealed shut by the same strips of cloth seen on its chimeric limbs.

Personality:Rufo is a composed artist sharing common sensibilities of the Ring; someone willing to reach extreme violence if it becomes necessary for his goals, yet still leaves room available for possible discussion.

Émile Benoît (Master

Appearance:Benoît is an imposing figure draped in primarily white clothing, comprised of robes overlaid over a textured undershirt. Over her coat, she wears a boa made up of multiple animal furs and hides stitched together, consisting of the following from bottom left to bottom right: a piece of black striped orange fur; a white feathered wing with darker wings layered beneath; the scales of a blue reptile with spikes protruding; a portion of leopard print fur; a dark colored beast's hide with yellow claws protruding; and the tail feathers of a peacock. Emerging from her back are branching antlers with sharp tips, the ends of the antlers bleached with dark tips. The antlers are draped in colorful cloth with a pixelated texture. Benoît wears a fractured mask that resembles a deer skull, with the same antlers as the ones behind his back. The forehead of the mask features white ornamentation that extends down its front. Rather than typical human legs, she has dark legs with pale hooves.

While entering combat in her gallery, she uses an artwork consisting of an oversized pale snake head with rows of sallow teeth behind its massive fangs, large enough to crush Don Quixote in a single attack.

During his days teaching Ryōshū, Benoît wore a mask composed of and resembling a wolf.
Personality:Émile Benoît is levelheaded, with an eye for aesthetic perfection based on the merging of beasts. She is highly esteemed among the Ring, with numerous Students ready to follow her order no matter the cost. Her mastery of art has garnered her immense popularity, even among outsiders unfamiliar with the Fauvist branch, shocked by the grotesque and fascinating nature of her artworks. Benoît is incredibly capable, with the abilities and organizational force able to harvest the eyes of a Second Kindred for her art, highlighting her success as an artist. Her utilization of her artwork extends to her combative abilities, making use of a massive snake-based piece as an extension of her arm. She has a particular fondness for the forms of beasts, and a recognized air of self-superiority in the subjective field of interpreting their most beautiful aspects.

Callisto (Former peer

The entrances and exits are unknown to strangers; only the residents know how to get in and out. According to the union, there are several corridors, but each corridor has its own dynamics and method.
The Ring Corridor: Characteristics of the Ring area are art and carnal obsession: Ring members in this area deal with anatomy and blood. Macabre workshop aesthetics: It functions as a twisted studio where they experiment with life and bodies under a philosophy of "supreme beauty." Finger Dynamics: The area reflects the Ring's hierarchies and indoctrination techniques intended for a supposed art, but it is grotesque yet always clean and white.

Appearance:Ren is a calm-looking man with pale skin. His hair is black with a blue dye, cut to chin length, and parted cleanly down the middle. Ren's eyes are sharp and similarly dark with a blue highlight. He wears a black turtleneck with long sleeves that go all the way to his fingers, a long black hakama with three straps on it, black shoes with blue-gray laces and an open coat that has a top-to-bottom black-to-blue gradient with blue flowers patterned on it.

Ren carries a long white ōdachi, with metal tips on the ends of the handle and scabbard. It also has a white tassel with white and black hair attached to the handle, and a dark scratch-like pattern running along the scabbard and handle.
Personality:Ren has a humble manner of speaking with a near deadpan delivery. He appears strict with clear priorities: taking his master's orders very seriously, doing what needs to be done without complaint, and not standing for those unwilling to obey. Ren also constantly belittles himself, constantly asserting that he is insignificant and unworthy in a way that ironically comes off as somewhat prideful. He is defined by his faithfulness to the Dihui Star, who he acted as the voice of and cared for deeply enough to follow her to her grave.

While Ren is harsh on himself, he is shown to be immensely skilled in his role. Among the apprentices, he is able to dutifully mimic the abilities of Ryōshū to a lesser degree. He recognizes himself as no substitution for the Sinner despite his talent, so devoted to his role as a stepping stone for her that he views himself with no self-worth in comparison.

Shiomi Yoru (Master)

Appearance:lbina is a cold-looking woman made up of artistic white prosthetics. Her hair appears artificial, and is light gray in color with a smooth, straight cut done up in a high ponytail, resembling cables. Shapely lines run across each of her cheeks and several other places where human joints would lie. Her full-body prosthetic possesses gold highlights, and in other areas such as her thighs, neck, and chest, black machinery and wires are made visible, with both palms featuring a similar color. Her prosthetic body is humanoid, although it is most unusual around the center, where the machinery is more akin to a human skeleton. Albina has heterochromia iridium, with her right eye being black and her left eye being white. Albina's prosthetic arms include a variety of medical equipment that can unfold from her forearms, including a massive pair of scissors, a hacksaw, various scalpels, a three-pronged claw, a pronged retractor, and a smaller pair of scissors.

Her iron maiden armor is white with large amounts of bright yellow and select golden highlights, as well as a faint iridescence. It takes the form of a heavy-looking full-body suit ending in a long dress, with spikes protruding from the lower half and a golden spiked headband. Chains hang down from either side of her headband, as well as from thick white bands clinging to her elbows. Her mask has sharp golden eyes painted on and two white spikes on each side. The armor is overall somewhat knightly in appearance.

She carries with her a greatsword named Fascia, featuring the same white and yellow palette as her outfit. It has a removable white panel on its side, that, when removed, reveals a dark, skeletal frame with an interior made up of viscera and ribs. Said viscera is brighter in the area the panel typically covers.
Personality:Albina is generally calm and soft-spoken with an obsessive interest in the arts, common of her associated Syndicate. She appears very fond of her weapon, Fascia, lovingly conversing with it, "feeding" it with the flesh of others, and growing concerned when it seems it might get damaged. This fascination of her weapon goes so far that she becomes willing to break imposed rules in the event she can allow it further time to shine, even while others on her side attempt to rein her in, and values ​​her 'life' over her own.

Albina also has an overly honest manner of speaking and appears to struggle socially, with a desire to make 'friends' (a concept she equates with ingredients for Fascia) that she can't seem to manifest. Like with her artwork and thoughts of friendship, Albina becomes highly fixated on whatever catches her interest, and can't seem to pick up on or adapt to the feelings of other people in a conversation. Additionally, although Albina appears to possess more talent than her master, she greatly looks up to Callisto and hopes to surpass him one day.

Appearance:Kira is a short woman with a disarming smile. She has bright purple eyes and voluminous white hair that frames her face, and she wears a ribbon over the middle of her bangs. Kira wears purple sweatpants, stark white sneakers, and a white winter jacket, with the hood pulled over her head, and with her Book of Vengeance hanging from one of her pockets. Kira carries a curved sword on a white scabbard, strapped by her back with large golden chains, along with a shorter curved sword and a cleaver, and her forearms are covered by large sections of the same chains wrapped around them. Under her chains, she wears the Middle-styled augmentation tattoos
Personality: Kira has an upbeat and outgoing personality with a willingness to befriend anyone she meets. As is typical of members of the Middle, she enjoys combat, is stubborn in her beliefs, and carries herself without much seriousness. She holds a lot of admiration for those she considers "badass", lending to a love of Fixers, comics, and television; a result of efforts to bond over a shared interest with her otherwise unreachable father. Kira also has a distinctly youthful manner of speech that leans into slang and blunt word choices.

Having spent her recent life getting whatever she wanted from her father in the confines of the House of Spiders, Kira appears somewhat lonely and naive. This lends to an overly friendly and sincere style of interaction, to the point of her chatting up the members of the LCB and LCD during the House of Spiders' attack on their headquarters. However, as is shown through her failed attempts to involve the other Apprentices in her hobbies, Kira's struggle to read the room often ends up pushing others away. Additionally, because of how many her hobbies have defined her personality and upbringing, Kira is prone to viewing the real world through the lens of a story. She relies on this false perception of the world in order to excuse her own unjust behaviors, dismissing justice-seekers as playing a character and believing that those kinds of values ​​aren't realistic outside the screen. Matthias' childish way of caring for her contributed greatly to these flaws and left Kira without a proper role model.

Matthias Adoptive father, mentor

Appearance:Sora is a short, slender woman of pale complexion with black, messy hair. At all times, she wears a large metal collar with the Index's insignia that covers half of her face, with chains that connect to cuffs, along with wearing large round glasses.

As a Proxy of the Index, she dons the Finger's signature white cloak, with a white shirt with black sleeves, black tie and skirt, with black thigh high boots with golden heels. With her Effloresced EGO active, her arms and legs are shrouded in shadows, having large clawed hands and feet. She also grows a long, thin tail with an arrow-like end, alongside a pair of horns and a halo—the chains and cuffs are broken in this state as well.

She is also briefly seen wearing the Dimension Shredder LCE EGO, extracted from Wayward Passenger, which she stole from a deceased employee. This EGO Suit took the form of a dark blue coat and pants with red, fleshy ornaments, a dark undershirt and vest, and thick black boots.
Personality:Sora is a shy and insecure person, often worrying about how others perceive her. She has no friends due to her position within the House of Spiders and, as a result, craves companionship and validation from others. When she disguised herself as a member of the LCE, she quickly grew attached to the employees of Limbus Company and enjoyed having people to talk to, while also lacking the ability to understand that they were only speaking to her on friendly terms due to believing she was a colleague of theirs. These factors characterize her as naive, a trait which also shows in her desire to please and become family with Rien, who clearly holds no genuine affection for her.

Despite her cravings for companionship, Sora puts her loyalty to Rien and the Prescripts above all else, even if it entails killing the people she has grown fond of. Similarly, she remains a devout member of the Index even as the Prescripts guide her life in a direction where she remains alone and unable to befriend others. When his duties don't have to come into play, however, Sora demonstrates a kind and trusting heart that believes good people should be rewarded.

Rien (Master)

Appearance: Lucio is a tall young man, with violet eyes and light gray hair split neatly to reveal his face, tied into a long ponytail that reaches his waist. He wears a Thumb uniform consisting of a rose-red vest, trousers, and a neatly buttoned ivory shirt fastened with a dark red tie, with his sleeves rolled up past his forearms. His hands are covered by rose-red gloves of the same color as his vest and trousers. His vest is fastened by two suspenders which connect to a belt, with a golden pin with one arrow pointing rightwards on his left breast. He carries two golden swords contained in wine-red scabbards, with gilded hilts and tips on the scabbards - one longsword with a striped pattern on his back, the other smaller with a spiral pattern at his left hip.
Personality:Quiet and steady, Lucio carries an air of professionalism unlike his mentor. Even in the face of immense adversity and scolding, he remains calm and collected, ready to continue his efforts even while confronted by the possibility of loss. Given his role as a possible tutor, he is expected to be prim, proper, and dutiful. Although he frequently criticizes his opponents' forms in combat, his words are not as harsh as his master's, as he attempts to use them as a point of growth rather than disappointment.

Despite Valencina's abuse of Lucio, he feels permanently indebted to her for feeding and sheltering him, and is not willing to admit to her cruelty when asked. However, his combat passives demonstrate that he actually burns with resentment towards her, and has long been aware of her depravity, considering it his responsibility to eventually take her life.

Valencina (Mentor)

Appearance: In her youth, Araya had dark hair with blunt bangs, with two long side bangs reaching her shoulders. Her hair features three distinct blue strands, one on each side bang, and one on her straight bangs. She has large, black eyes, and wears a dark blue kimono featuring a pattern of golden bows in sets of large and small patterning it. Her obi is a darker blue hue than the rest of her kimono. She wears short loafers on her feet.
Personality:As a child, Araya was a sunny girl, frequently smiling with a cheery attitude, even while surrounded by the Nursefathers, or the air of violence that surrounds them. Although she primarily lived in the House of Spiders, rarely ever shown outside of Ryōshū and her shared room, she managed to spend plenty of time outside the house, enjoying her time in school while socializing with peers, always making sure to teach her mother the slang of her age. Even with the air of misery that haunted the House of Spiders, she became a light for Ryōshū, who sought a better world for her to live in.

Ryōshū (Mother)
Shiomi Yoru (Grandmother

Appearance: Ryōshū is a woman of average height and build, with straight black hair in a bob cut style and sharp red eyes, which at times can be seen glowing. She wears the dark gray and red LCB coat around her shoulders, secured by a small belt that goes over her right arm. Attached to the coat itself is her ID card. She wears black trousers, and her shirt uniform is untucked; she foregoes the tie. She is occasionally depicted with a black glove on her left hand.

Along with this, she typically carries around a sheathed ōdachi on her back,[5] with the words 無我夢中 阿鼻叫喚 支離滅裂 (mugamuchū abikyōkan shirimetsuretsu, "Wading through a dream, the self nowhere to be found. Like the Naraka of Avīci and Raurava. Severed and torn until even the form is undone.") across it. The ōdachi's hilt is golden, and decorated with a butterfly pattern. The end of the sheath is wrapped in a red ribbon. The blade is consistently sheathed, as pointed out during the story.
Personality: Ryōshū has an individualistic, free-spirited, and somewhat sadistic personality. She feels little obligation to uphold common courtesies like politeness or attentiveness, and near the beginning of the game, the majority of her comments are hostile or violent in nature. Even among the Sinners, Ryōshū comes off as strikingly unfriendly and forthright, preferring to live at his own peculiar pace.

Araya (Daughter)
Nursefathers (Parents, mentors

Appearance: Shiomi Yoru wears an ornate white kimono that conceals almost her entire body. The kimono is blue-accented, with several blue ribbons tied to her headwear, wrists, and obi. Her pale face is covered by a veil adorned with a flower pattern, which is also visible on the outfit's sleeves and hem. She wears white gloves and a long, uniquely-knotted rope that hangs from her neck to her waist. The Dihui Star's hair is black with blue streaks, falling past her shoulders.
She carries the Dihui Star's Blade, a dark blue ōdachi kept within a white-blue scabbard.
Beneath her veil, her face is similar to Ryōshū's, though with longer hair with strands of blue strewn about.
Personality: Little is known of Shiomi Yoru's personality prior to her joining the House of Spiders, although she is shown to be a woman deeply mourning her loss of autonomy, which was taken away when the task of raising Ryōshū was forced onto her. Antithetical to her role as a member of the Pinky, she found herself bound to the House of Spiders, stuck without the freedom she desired.

Despite her own misery, Yoru was without sympathy for Ryōshū, since the child's birth all through her adulthood, and the Sinner often remembers Yoru belittling her or even threatening her through her pet Saru or Araya. Similar to the other Nursefathers, Shiomi Yoru carried a level of specific expectations for Ryōshū, most prominently during her time at the House of Spiders. Among the group, however, Shiomi Yoru treated her with a particular level of contempt, as Ryōshū seemed to her as a reflection of herself, and a constant reminder of the freedom and autonomy that had been forcibly stripped away from her.

She carried a bitter resentment of her protégé, choosing to openly admonish her for her connection to Araya, which reminded Yoru of her own connection to Ryōshū, as a daughter whom she saw as a living fetter. Despite her burning disgust for Ryōshū and what she meant, she understood her own failings as a person and mentor, which she drilled into Ryōshū as something to avoid down to making a pinky promise with her, expressing bitterness and disappointment whenever Ryōshū failed to do so, and resembled her even in minor ways, such as smoking her same cigarettes and getting eye prosthetics that made her eyes resemble hers.

Through her pain and imprisonment in the House of Spiders, she understood her role as a stepping stone, showing grace—although tarnished with her hatred—even while being killed by the child she'd raised, egging her on to leave the House of Spiders and even seeing her own death as freedom. Even still, her distance from the woman was all that remained following her death, haunting Ryōshū beyond Shiomi Yoru's time.

Appearance:Callisto is a man of towering height, whose body is composed of sleek, full-body prosthetics with a metallic textures on his torso and a taste-patterned, white shell on his leg and shoulders. He wears draped white robes with a gilded trim along their perimeter, silver-adorned white high-heels, and a large-brimmed hat featuring a litany of holes through its brim. His body, visible through a gap in his robes, reveals some of his innards through glass panes. His arms feature large gaps in their centers, with sharp claws at the end of his hands. He carries an art piece called Tibia, a massive sword composed of his own original corpus, which features several large pointed notches along its blade.

Beneath his wide-brimmed hat, his brain is partially exposed due to a failed attempt to utilize his brain in an art piece.
Personality:Common of members of the Ring, Callisto shows an interest in the macabre and brutal when framed through a lens of artwork, taking a primary interest in the human corpus. This interest drives him to an intense yearning for a peer who understands it to a point of equal discussion, even if it were merely a discussion of pure tastes. During Ryōshū's time with the House of Spiders, he showed a caring side towards the woman, mentioning his wish for her to wield what he considered his prized creation upon its eventual completion.

Callisto frequently expresses a distaste for the habits of the other Nursefathers, admonishing their poor behavior while attempting to carry himself at a higher standard. Despite his recognition of the group's collective poor attitudes, he experiences similar odd behaviors as them, shown most effectively in his attempts to cheer up a young Ryōshū with a piece of grisly art. His obsession with art comes above all else in his life, consistently causing him issues in both his and others' pursuits of the craft. He is shown to be easily pushed to ramble when given the opportunity to discuss art with another.

Albina (Pupil)
Émile Benoît (Former peer

Appearance:Matthias is a bulky man, with dark skin and pure-white hair worn short with blunt bangs. He is typically seen wearing a pair of thick sunglasses, with a gold bridge between the lenses. He wears a white suit overtop a black dress shirt — unbuttoned and revealing a large scar on his chest — with a massive coat with the customary colors and pattern of members of the Middle worn over his shoulders. He keeps his Book of Vengeance on his left hip, with his opposite leg wrapped in golden chains. Notably, his right leg appears to shift through the use of his enhancement tattoos into a large claw, one he uses in combat. He is missing his right arm, although he is shown to have worn white gloves on both hands in the past. His body is covered in enhancement tattoos, similar in design to other members of the Middle. On his back remains an oversized metallic sword and scabbard.

The sword, Lævateinn, is bound by at least three layers of seals, taking the form of thick chains keeping each layer tightly bound. When revealed, the sword appears with a thin-tipped appearance and a red burning hue across the entire length of the blade.
Personality:Typical of those in his primary faction, Matthias presents as deeply devout to those on his side and brutal to those not. He is shown to feature an intense excitement at the possibility of reuniting with Ryōshū, who he called "buddy" in his youth. He features a toy-loving attitude, which contributes to a short attention span likened to his destruction of new toys, as well as a tendency to buy and collect things he has no intention to actually use. Despite this somewhat immature personality, he remains highly capable in combat, able to fend off a variety of opponents at a time, with a litany of specific tools that assist his battles. Even with his boisterous personality, Matthias is a brutal and dedicated man who understands the goal of his side, never wavering when it is threatened or questioned.

However, at his core, Matthias is an intensely selfish man who only truly cares about short-term pleasure and indulging his hedonism. While he expresses affection for those under his watch, his understanding of parental care is highly superficial and neglectful, mostly involving flaunting his wealth and spoiling his "children" with no heed for consequences. Ultimately, he treats the needs of his peers as entirely irrelevant compared to his own, even fellow Middle members, and will even sacrifice them in a heartbeat if it benefits him.
Lævateinn:A sword of overwhelming heat wielded by Matthias.
Lævateinn was found within the Ruins by Matthias and two of his Middle Siblings, where it was acting as the heat source of a lava river.[31] Matthias chose to kill both of his allies in order to claim the Relic for himself.[32] It is said to be a shard of a sword once wielded by an "endwatcher" of the Ruins, containing their immense power despite its fragmentation.[33]

Lævateinn requires an unknown aptitude, which Matthias only met enough to just barely use it. Likely because Matthias does not possess the aptitude to wield the Relic at its full power, he keeps the sword wrapped in three layers of seals that are progressively undone throughout battle, presumably allowing him to brute-force his way to its greater strength.

Kira (Daughter, apprentice)

Appearance:Rien is a tall man with pale skin, black hair with silver strands, and a right eye featuring a golden pupil. The left side of his face is hidden behind a porcelain mask, the base of the mask being white, with a golden trim, used to obscure visible burns. The mask features a large crack along it. He wears a black suit jacket with golden buttons and an Index symbol on his left shoulder, with two similarly gold chevrons beneath it. His dress pants and shoes carry the same color as the rest of his suit, with the soles of his shoes having golden trim. Beneath his suit jacket, he wears a plain white dress shirt and black tie. He wears white gloves on his hands.

In combat, he wields a golden vial with a chain on it, which allows for a ferrofluid-like liquid to transform into various weapons based on his assigned Prescript.

Prior to Ryōshū's departure from the House of Spiders, Rien's left eye was exposed and undamaged. When removed, the mask reveals a scarred part of his face that also has a damaged eye, only showing his pupil from within the wound.
Personality:Rien is a composed individual, acting with simplicity and speaking gently even while harming himself or others. Though he acts with grace, he carries a sinister air, tormenting people both physically and mentally. Due to his allegiance to the Index, he shows extreme devotion to orders of the Prescripts, going as far as maiming himself to provide the completion of his orders.

Among the Nursefathers, he was the one who most readily assumed the role of father towards Yoshihide, reading books to her, reminding her to take care of her wounds, and even expressing a form of discontent in hearing of Valencina's physical abuse of her. Since Yoshihide's youth, he has tended to treat her as younger than her current age, which would annoy the girl; Even when meeting her again during the main story, Rien's behavior towards her appears unchanged, with him often referring to Ryōshū as his "darling daughter" despite Ryōshū's unwavering will to severe herself from the Nursefathers. Out of the Nursefathers, Rien is also the most dedicated towards his task of perfecting Ryōshū into the perfect wielder of Arayashiki, rejoicing upon seeing her enter the state of non-self, and describing her as the House of Spiders' masterpiece.

Despite his unflappable meaning, Rien harbors mixed feelings regarding the Prescripts. As it is due to them that he could indulge in sufferings and the pleasures of the City, Rien is grateful for the chance they allow him to enact great violence on others; However, he conceals a resentment towards them, having harbored a genuine attachment for his previous family, which he had allowed to die by following the order of the Prescripts. Rien also grew attached to his second daughter Ryōshū, to the point that near the end of his life, he was finally willing to defy the Prescript to attempt to convince her to return to her family in the House of Spiders, believing them to be able to protect her from the rest of the Fingers. While Rien returned to following the Prescripts after making his escape from the House, he eventually commits one act of true defiance in refusing to recite a poem that had been assigned to him by a Prescript, and deciding to take his own life instead

Sora (Apprentice)

Appearance:Valencina is a tall, older woman with sea green eyes and long, bushy dirty-blonde hair that covers her right eye. She wears a Thumb uniform consisting of a rose-red jacket, trousers, wide brimmed hat and untied ribbon over an ivory shirt with the top buttons undone. The right lapel of her jacket has a golden pin with one arrow pointing rightwards. She is seen smoking a cigar, and has black gloves with light palms.

While not visible in her sprites, she is said to have the Relic "the Eye of Odin" in place of her right eye, a mechanical eye with a sea green iris and a segmented sclera.[2] As Ryōshū damaged the Relic using Arayashiki, the wound reopens when Valencina is in its presence, at one point causing a cascade of blood to cover her face. Her death sprite suggests she wears a black eyepatch over it, which has a golden cross printed on the front.

She carries two swords, one being a rapier with a revolver barrel at its guard kept in a red sheath, and the other, a curved sword with yellow ribbons on its grip kept in an orange sheath. Both have golden, ribbed blades.
Personality:Valencina is an arrogant, booze-loving woman with a violent, foul-mouthed personality. She has an excessively short temper, taking to physical abuse whenever she feels frustrated regardless of if she lacks excuses to justify the behavior. While she aims to benefit greatly off the cultivation of Ryōshū's abilities, Valencina regards the woman with no shortage of disrespect and contempt, and has no qualms about treating the others around her with the same discourtesy. Despite her untimely discharge, Valencina continues to carry typical traits of the Thumb, demanding respect from those she views as her inferiors and taking to injury as the first response to failure. By striking down, Valencina affirms her perceived status as someone deserving of more than the stagnation of the House of Spiders.

The Nursefather remains extremely bitter about her expulsion from her home Syndicate and subsequent failure from grace, convinced that she can get herself reinstated with an impressive enough accomplishment despite repeated failures. This trait—alongside her unwillingness to properly question the House of Spider's true intentions—characterize Valencina as somewhat naive, comfortable with living foolishly so long as she has subordinates to take her anger out on. Valencina is also excessively smug and self-assured in her combat abilities, although she has a long list of war successes that substantiate this confidence. She also demonstrates a large amount of dedication to what she puts her mind to and enough maturity to complete important tasks with little complaint.

In rare moments of lucidity, Valencina is capable of demonstrating fairness and passivity. Although her disagreeable attitude remains, she will at times admit to facts that damage her pride or hold herself back from extreme cruelty, particularly when she's in a good mood. Ryōshū notes seeing the most of this from the woman during her era as a Smoke War soldier, where Valencina was putting so much of herself into the battle that she temporarily dropped her reliance on alcohol and abuse. However, Valencina fell back into all of her unfavorable habits the moment she was denied the right to reenter the Thumb, proving herself unwilling to commit to her betterment. While his later decision to house Lucio was commendable, Lucio's resulting struggle to let his hate outweigh his gratitude may have been intentional manipulation on Valencina's part. Although Valencina seems to have been an accomplished woman who suffered greatly from the Thumb's rejection and her inability to live a satisfying life in the House of Spiders, the daughter she spent decades with ultimately remembers the Thumb Nursefather as her abuser first and foremost
The Eye of Odin: A prosthetic eye that uses vast calculative power in order to present its user with the most likely scenario in the upcoming instant. Valencina uses the eye as a form of precognition.
This Relic is one third of a single Relic that was broken in the past. Potentially because of this, the Relic has a tendency to overheat with extensive use, and faster so when forced to calculate more difficult and extensive variables. Overheating can cause it to temporarily fail, putting its user in sudden danger.

Valencina used the Eye of Odin for many years, and may have originally received it as a family heirloom from her Thumb family. He was responsible for many of his victories during his time in the Smoke War.
