Tressa Shiryu

"Together with my brother, we are the Perfect Life Forms. Don't piss me off, or I'll wipe you away with a mere flick of my finger."

Tressa Shiryu is the result of scientists from all over the world coming together and wanting to create an anti-war trump card. Fortunately (or unfortunately), Tressa is a weapon with enough power to nuke a planet. Deep inside of her, she resents the act of fighting, but her primal instincts cause her to relish in blood and violence. Due to an event that happened about 60 years prior to her first encounter with Dixie Onikawa, her memories are fuzzy. Once she remembers what happened prior to her sealing, Tressa begins a genocidal campaign that became known as the Darkened Mirror Incident. At first, her brother Shadow supported it but eventually turned against the idea when he saw how his sister became consumed with revenge and hatred. She was eventually stopped through a combination of a stinging defeat to Dixie, exchanging ideas with her, and remembering why she and her brother were created in the first place. After they joined the Legacy, the two began working hard to fix everything they messed up. Due to some possible tampering with her mind, all she can feel is neutral to negative emotions; she is incapable of feeling happiness or other positive emotions. She cannot even smile; her facial range goes from 'resting bitch face' to 'pure hatred'.

While Shadow tends to have a calm demeanor, in battle, he can become a feral beast when he unlocks his Phase Power. He is a strong willed fighter who will do everything he can to make sure that the team comes back in one piece, even if it means getting his body destroyed in the process. Tressa, on the other hand, is the complete opposite of her brother. She is unhinged, loves to fly off the handle in rage, and has a very sharp tongue about her. She believes that since she cannot die, she can be as reckless as she wants in battle, but her body can only regenerate at a speed relative to how much damage she has sustained. She cares only for herself and her brother, making her a difficult teammate to have.... unless your name is Dixie. She has an unspecified relationship with her, but rumor has it that Tressa is much nicer to Dixie than anyone else. Make of that what you will...

Even though Tressa and Shadow flipped sides to the Legacy, Tressa is far from being a squeaky clean hero. She is an anti-hero is a strong pragmatic streak within her. Her intentions are always very clearly to help people, but she is not afraid of shedding blood and ending lives to reach her goal of repentance. Strangely though, she will bring no harm to children and will merely scold them. She tends to be some level of hostile with her teammates, especially with Dixie as they develop a fierce but friendly rivalry. Tressa trains relentlessly for the day that she can get a rematch with the only person to have decisively beaten her.

Tressa holds within her half of the Spirit of Annihilation, possibly the most powerful of the 8 Phase Spirits. Using its power, it boosts her already high Chaos Energy levels to seemingly infinite levels and causes her strength to grow the angrier she becomes. It’s possible for her to turn into a near literal anger golem. However, the drawback is severe; when she leaves the Phase State, her energy is drained to near empty and she is left in a helpless state. This is best used for her as a last resort and nothing more; if goaded into using the Spirit’s power, she will become a heavy burden for her team. The Spirit is also actively antagonistic and malevolent towards her, which Tressa doesn’t handle very well.
