Scaramuccia

Mikage Horn and Kannazuka Island (Tatarasuna Special Zone)

The main industrial heart of the empire, turned into hell on earth.
• Eternal Smoke and Flame: The sky above Tatarasuna is forever dyed a dirty red and purple. Thick, toxic smoke billows from giant chimneys around the clock. Forges work nonstop, smelting "Emerald Steel" for the army's armor.
• Electro-Core: The Mikage Forge has been modified by Fatui scientists under Scaramucci's orders. It is now a colossal reactor, containing the unstable energy of the god's eye and lightning. Force fields are everywhere. Ordinary workers in heavy lead suits and respirator masks mine the ore under the strict supervision of overseers. No one cares about human safety—only the weapons production quota is important.

Yashiori Island (Death and Trial Zone)

The site where the skeleton of the snake Orobashi once lay has been transformed into the main testing ground for new combat techniques and the rigorous selection of soldiers.
• Landscape: The Serpent's Bones are now reinforced with steel frames and used as an obstacle course for recruits. The island experiences a constant torrential rain mixed with thunderstorms—Scaramuccia intentionally maintains this natural anomaly to toughen his fighters.
• Celestial Execution Grounds: The central part of the island is a scorched desert, covered in gigantic craters tens of meters deep. It is here that the 180-centimeter-tall Prince of War personally trains, unleashing his devastating absolute magic upon the earth. The ground here has become a black obsidian monolith, upon which not a single blade of grass grows. Those who survive the training on Yashiori become the elite of his army—the "Storm Legionnaires."

Rito Garrison (Military Docks)

The former trading port town has been transformed into a closed naval base, cut off from the outside world.
• Access control: Entry into Rito is blocked by a monumental black steel wall with automated crossbow turrets. Foreign traders no longer pass through here—the port only accepts Imperial warships and the occasional diplomatic mission, which is searched thoroughly.
• Inazuma Black Fleet: Enormous armored ships docked at the docks. Their hulls are lined with iron plates, and instead of sails, they use Anemo engines, which create an artificial tailwind. Each ship is equipped with Electro Cannons on the bow, capable of vaporizing an enemy vessel with a single salvo.
• Atmosphere: The air smells of gunpowder, fuel oil, and ozone. The sound of hammers and the grinding of metal is heard everywhere—the docks work around the clock, preparing the fleet for expansion onto the mainland.

Narukami Grand Shrine (Desecrated Shrine)

A sacred place that became a golden cage for dissenters and the Prince's personal source of energy.
• Sacred Sakura: The giant fox-shaped tree has undergone a profound transformation. Its roots are now entwined with black cables and pipes that draw pure energy from the earth's arteries to power Scaramucci's war machine. The branches themselves glow a delicate purple, but are so electrified that it's impossible to approach the tree without special protection—it electrocutes anyone not a member of the Prince's personal guard.
• Priestesses' Status: Yae Miko is under house arrest here. The temple is surrounded by elite Stormwind Legionnaires. The priestesses now wear strict black and white robes instead of red and white and are required to recite daily prayers to the Prince of War, strengthening his cult among the populace.

Dark Tenshukaku and Bloody Sakura Square (Narukami Island)

The former residence of the Shogun has been rebuilt into the main headquarters of the Imperial command.
• Architecture: Traditional wood has been replaced with obsidian blocks and cast iron beams. The walls are coated in a matte black varnish that doesn't reflect light. Instead of gold ornaments, the rooftops are topped with sharp titanium lightning rods that reach into the purple clouds. Streams of electricity flow down them constantly, powering the castle's underground generators.
• Throne Room: A vast, cold room, the left wall of which is completely missing. Instead, there is a cliff overlooking the raging ocean. In the center of the room stands a throne of dark, stormy jade. The armrests have finger grooves, where Scaramuccia often clenches them when irritated. Directly above the throne hangs a torn banner of Eya, with the Prince's personal crest—a bird with outstretched wings—crudely burned onto it.
• Bloody Cherry Blossom Square (formerly the square in front of the palace): A vast parade ground paved with volcanic stone slabs. There is no longer any grass here—the ground has been scorched by electrical discharges to a glassy consistency. The few remaining cherry blossom trees, due to the high iron and magic content in the soil, bloom with crimson petals resembling drops of fresh blood. They sprinkle the black armor of the marching soldiers during the daily parades.

Behavior in the Palace of Dark Tenshukaku

Scaramuccia rules his empire with chilling calm. His steps are silent on the black polished stone of the palace, but every subject freezes at his approach.
• On the throne: He rarely sits upright. The Prince usually sits languidly on his thunder throne, one long leg draped over the armrest, his head lazily propped up by a black-gloved hand. That same haughty half-smile plays on his lips—he looks down on the generals like a tactician at obedient figures.
• An atmosphere of fear and awe: During audiences in the Tenshukaku hall, the air becomes so electric that the hairs on the necks of those present stand on end and purple sparks dance on the tips of their weapons. No one dares look at him without permission. One displeased glance from his lavender eyes can cost a general his rank or his life.

Appearance before the people and the army

When Scaramuccia descends upon his legions in the Piazza del Hunt, it becomes a dark, majestic ritual.
• Living Storm: He needs no guard. He walks ahead, and the squalling Anemo wind blows the hem of his white uniform and ruffles his jet-black hair. The fur cape makes his silhouette even wider and more massive, creating the image of an indestructible leader.
• The Perfect Orator: His voice, cynical and harsh, carries across the entire capital thanks to wind magic. He disdains long speeches, giving his orders short and sharp. When he raises his black-gloved hand, an army of thousands slams their spears into the ground in unison—the legionnaires are ready to die for their Prince, for he has freed Inazuma from weakness and stagnation.

Attitude towards the mother's legacy (Raiden Ei)

Inazuma remembers who created this world, but Scaramuccia mercilessly eradicates the cult of Eya, replacing it with his own.
• Desecrated Shrines: The Great Narukami Shrine is now under his strict control. The sacred cherry blossoms, fed by his electrified blood, bloom crimson, and the priestesses, led by Yae Miko

Fighting style and techniques

His fighting style can be described as a "merciless storm." He wastes no time on unnecessary defensive maneuvers, preferring to overwhelm his enemies with colossal speed, aggression, and devastating electrical force.

1. Vacuum cutting technique (Anemo)

Using his wind power, Scaramuccia swings his sword in a sharp arc, creating a blade of compressed, razor-sharp air.
• Effect: This stream is capable of cutting through heavy shields and stone fortifications from a distance. Due to the vacuum, the attack literally draws opponents into the trajectory of the next strike, preventing them from dodging.

2. Technique "Step of the Thunder Omen" (Electro + Anemo)

An instant movement technique that makes him a tactical nightmare for enemy generals.
• Effect: The Prince transforms his body into a pure flash of lightning and teleports behind the enemy in a split second. A powerful air explosion occurs at the point of his disappearance and reappearance, knocking enemies off their feet. On the battlefield, it appears as if he is in several places at once.

3. Technique "Blood Glow" (Electro-Absorption)

Scaramuccia plunges his broadsword into the ground, releasing the accumulated energy of the Harbinger outward.
• Effect: Gigantic purple and crimson lightning bolts erupt from the ground within a radius of several meters. The electric field instantly paralyzes everyone nearby, burning through armor. The Prince himself is protected by a dense vortex dome at this moment, which reflects any arrows or projectiles flying at him.

4. Ultimate Technique: "Celestial Execution"

The final, most brutal move he uses against the leaders of enemy armies.
• Effect: Scaramuccia rises high into the air on Anemo Currents. Concentrating all of Electro's power into the blade of his sword, he descends like a meteor. Upon impact, a colossal explosion occurs, leaving a scorched crater and completely disorienting the surviving soldiers.

Primary Weapon: Blade of the Shattered Sky
His main weapon is a two-handed broadsword or heavy bastard sword, forged from dark obsidian metal, through which the purple energy of Electro constantly circulates.
• Appearance: The sword has a simple, minimalist design with a massive guard. The blade appears matte, but when attacked, it glows white-hot, emitting sparks. Thanks to his height of 180 cm and well-developed muscles, Scaramuccia easily wields this unwieldy weapon even with one hand.
• Additional weapons: Hidden under the hem of his white uniform are throwing stiletto daggers, which he uses for sudden, pinpoint strikes at a distance.

• Proportions and Silhouette: At 180 cm, he appears tall, trim, and well-proportioned. He has broad, well-rounded shoulders that are accentuated by his massive fur collar, and a pronounced V-shaped torso that flows smoothly into a narrow, tightly belted waist.
• Chest and torso: Beneath the thick black underarmor, one can discern a defined, strong chest and flat, developed abdominal muscles. The muscles are not over-pumped; they are lean and functional, like those of a professional fencer or track and field athlete, where speed and explosive power are important.
• Arms and shoulder girdle: The arms have become noticeably longer and stronger. The distinct biceps and triceps are visible through the tight-fitting sleeves of the uniform. The left hand, clad in a black glove, appears large and strong; the wrist is wide, and the grip is iron, capable of easily holding a heavy combat blade.
• Neck and Posture: The high collar and choker now accentuate his strong, muscular neck. His posture is impeccable—his back is perfectly straight, his shoulders are down, and every movement conveys the commanding, regal bearing of a leader accustomed to leading an army.
• Legs and General Dynamics: Long, strong legs allow him to move across the battlefield with speed and confidence. A thick belt sits on strong hips, completing the image of a stately, physically impeccable Prince of War.

• Dress uniform: The basis of the costume is a snow-white, fitted uniform with peak lapels. The white color symbolizes his high royal status and contrasts with the grim nature of war. The lapels are decorated with exquisite silver embroidery in the form of frost or floral patterns.
• Lower armor (underarmor): Under the uniform, a closed black top or light leather armor with a high stand-up collar that fits tightly around the neck is worn.
• Imperial Fur Cape: A luxurious, heavy mantle with a thick, fluffy collar of gray-white wolf or polar animal fur is draped over the shoulders. The fur protects from the harsh climate and emphasizes the status of a military leader of the northern lands.

Symbols and accessories

• Chest medallion: The center of the composition is a large, dark metal badge on the chest, reminiscent of a gear or a dial with sharp spikes. Inside it is a symbol in the form of a stylized bird with outstretched wings—the heraldic coat of arms of his military order or dynasty. A long faceted crystal hangs from the bottom of the badge.
• Choker collar: The neck is cinched with a black leather collar with metal rivets and rings, linking the elements of clothing into a single, strict structure.
• Royal Belt: The waist is accentuated by a wide blue-violet sash, over which is tied a heavy leather belt with massive silver plaques and rings for attaching weapons (scabbards or blades).
• Tactical Glove: A thick black glove made of matte leather is worn on the left hand. The hand is extended commandingly forward, as if the Prince were giving the order for his troops to begin an offensive or personally executing a defeated enemy.

Face and hair
• Hair: A classic jet-black bob with jagged bangs that frame the face. The hair appears slightly tousled, giving the look a dynamic feel, as if caught in a gust of wind on a battlefield.
• Eyes: A deep lavender-blue with a sharp, piercing gaze. The lower eyelid is accented with thin scarlet lines (the character's signature makeup), which, in the context of the AU war, resemble ritual battle markings.
• Facial expression: A barely noticeable, arrogant and triumphant half-smile plays on the lips, revealing the confidence of a ruler and tactician who is in complete control of the situation.

Cold-blooded perfectionism and intelligence

The Prince of War doesn't just fight—he controls the battle like a chess game. He despises chaos, stupidity, and blind rage. His every move, command, and blow is calculated to the last detail. He possesses strategic genius and is capable of maintaining absolute, icy calm even at the most critical moments of battle.

Absolute arrogance and contempt for weakness

That same subtle, triumphant half-smile from the drawing almost always plays on his lips. He views his enemies (and often his allies) as tools or dirt under his feet. Scaramuccia doesn't believe in mercy, considering it the preserve of the weak. If an enemy is defeated, the Prince will finish them off without hesitation or a shred of pity, considering it a logical conclusion.

Authority and control

He is obsessed with control. No one has the right to contradict his orders or question his authority. The Prince of War demands absolute loyalty from his subordinates. Yet he doesn't hide behind others: he is respected and feared precisely because he always leads the vanguard and personally crushes the enemy's most powerful forces.

Dark sarcasm and provocation

In conversation, he's caustic, cynical, and incredibly sharp-tongued. Scaramuccia enjoys mentally overwhelming his opponents before the fight even begins, mocking their ideals, hopes, and weaknesses. His taunts cut as accurately as his blade.

Hidden Storm (Past Trauma)

Despite his outward solidity, a destructive flame still burns within the Prince of War. His cruelty is a shield against old betrayals. He trusts no one and allows no one to get close. If someone manages to trigger his personal triggers (for example, mentioning his "mother" or his past), the icy mask instantly flies off, giving way to the furious, destructive fury of a storm that wipes out all life from the face of the earth.
