Eta

"I want to spend the whole night... hearing more of the Shadow Wisdom."

- Eta

Eta (イータ) (Ήτα) is the seventh member of Shadow Garden, being one of the original "Seven Shadows", as well as the head of the organization's R&D department. Her public identity is Eta Lloyd Wright, a genius architect whose work won an award through implementing basic scientific and mathematical principles taught to her by Shadow.

Appearance
Eta is a female elf with long brown hair with bangs and purple eyes under a continuously sleepy gaze. Despite being a petite elf, Eta is said to be an extremely beautiful women those who once saw her are said to be become utterly mesmerized by her bewitching beauty.

In her civilian attire, she dresses as a scientist as she is in her lab most of the day, reverse engineering and adapting the innovations of Shadow's Wisdom. In her room, Eta is a lazy dresser and often times just wears the clothes she went to sleep with.

For Shadow Garden, she is adorned in the customary Slime Bodysuit with a stylized cloak and scarf, having frills and minor decorations along the cloak of her bodysuit. On the back of her bodysuit, the belt extends and almost appears as a tail. Her coat has large sleeves but drapes over her shoulders, the back of which has a tattered look at the base to appear as though it were torn, while her scarf is cartoonishly large. In terms of her attire at the torso, the light novel has it appear similar to a professional dress which ends at the hipline, while the anime has it appear like a unitard similar to Beta. Her belt hangs low along her hips in the light novel, while the belt meets her waistline in the anime with two coupled belt circumventing around and behind her hips.

Eta has two decorative smaller belts around her femur-- her left leg in the light novel, and her right leg in the anime. Eta has simplified ink gray/black trousers in the anime, while they are cuffed pants curing up and outward in the light novel, while having riveted fins along the back; from the kneecap, down the achilles, ending at the ankle. Eta's footwear in the light novel seems akin to professional businesswoman heels like Gamma's, while the anime has her wearing high heeled platformed shoes with a single gold trim at the metatarsal joints of the shoes.

Personality
"Sacrifices are inevitable... but they are necessary, for the development of the Shadow Wisdom."

- Eta

Eta is slow-paced, shown by how when she falls asleep that she is not easily woken. This is attributed to a circadian rhythm disorder affecting her body's clock. But despite her fatigue, Eta is expeditious in her research, as within a few years after the rescue of Claire Kagenō, Eta took "Shadow's Wisdom" and developed technologies based on his past life to be used in their world, such as the instant camera and the automobile, which she applied the technologies to Mitsugoshi publicly, while equipping Shadow Garden secretly.

According to Alpha, Eta appears to be somewhat of a mad scientist, as she has a motto which states "development always comes with sacrifices" and prepares for a drugs and experiments among her friends. Alpha also feared what Eta would do to their newly-captured Earthling if she got her hands on her. Eta loves doing the "V" peace sign, as it stands for “Victory”.

Eta is interested in the "science" when she heard from "Shadow's Wisdom" and conducting various research and development based on said wisdom. When it comes to things that interest Eta, such as architecture and research, she immerses herself in them without even having time to sleep.

Powers & Abilities
Due to her sleeping disorder, Eta is arguably the second-weakest member among the "Seven Shadows", with only Gamma being lower. Instead, her strength lies in her intelligence, inventing and reverse-engineering things for Shadow Garden using the Shadow's vague descriptions of Earth.

Physical Ability / Slow Pace
Eta has a habit of dozing off while either working or even during important meetings. She even has a habit of sleepwalking around the Shadow Garden's base and hit into wall, thus forcing the other members to retrieve her.

Due to suffering from a sleep disorder, Eta is only active at indeterminate intervals. However, when she does participate in combat, she can keep pace well enough with her fellow Shadows. Although it may not seem like it, Eta has great innate strength, almost rivaling the strength of her companions, Zeta and Delta, being able to lift several tons of weight without effort and not magic in it, As understood, said force was acquired through the training of his Master Shadow, while he cared for and trained her and the other first members, who would make up the "Seven Shadows", of Shadow Garden.

Resourceful Intellect
Eta is arguably the smartest member of Shadow Garden, which is already saying a lot. She is the organization's head scientist, researching the Slime Bodysuits based on what Shadow previously created when he first started. In addition to developing several types of Slimes by applying the slime technology invented by Shadow, she is also involved in the construction of each branch of the Mitsugoshi Company as Eta Lloyd Wright in the public society, as a "rare architect".

Eta is also a master translator, able to "decipher" Shadow's message written in Japanese, an unfamiliar language, far faster than even he had anticipated whilst no one else was even capable of it.

Professional scientist/Mad Scientist?
When Eta was enamored by Shadow, she slipped him an aphrodisiac to manipulate him to love her. When she found he was immune, she intensified the "experiment" with fatal poison capable of killing dragons and discovered he was fully immune to that as well.

According to Alpha, the leader of the Seven Shadows was afraid of what Eta may do to their alien guest, Akane Nishino. This could hint that Eta's morals are flexible, given her sleep disorder affects her mood, and that she most likely would experiment on Akane as she casually did on Shadow.

Swordsmanship
Like the rest in Shadow Garden, Eta is trained in the sword but has limited practice due to her infrequent sleeping.

Within the Game, Eta specializes in long-distance strong attacks, using her slime weapons as a whip, and mainly, to create powerful Slimo weapons of various types, be it Swords, axes, spears, among others retail. Said weapons, she did not wield as such, but similar to Aurora's abilities, she could throw them from any possible direction, (not counting from below the ground), at very fast speeds, reaching almost equal to the speeds of sound.

Magic
Being a direct pupil of Shadow, Eta knows some degree of magical utility. Especially since the Slime Bodysuits require conscious magical control to be shaped upon the user.

Skilled Engineer
With limited information, Eta was also able to reverse engineer an instant camera for Shadow Garden espionage, develop the "internal combustion engine" she heard about in "Shadow Wisdom," and also the "automobile" that uses the engine as a power source after Mitsugoshi discovered an oil field for their civil market when Gamma began expanding into the Velgalta Empire.

Weaknesses
Eta has one obvious weakness that completely cripples her as a fighter: her sleep disorder. This is exaggerated by her often working long hours on her investigations, causing her to not have a good body clock. As a result, she often stumbles while standing up and is prone to sleepwalking, during which she has a habit of walking into things. However, her physical constitution is not as bad as Gamma's and she can presumably hold her on in combat just fine provided she's fully awake.

Trivia

 * Her civilian surname is likely derived from the American architect: Frank Lloyd Wright.
 * In general, Eta does not show any high or strong emotion, whether it is a positive or negative response towards others or the members of Shadow Garden. As of now, the only person who can inspire strong feelings in her is Shadow.
 * Despite the fact that Eta only shows her strong emotions in front of her lord, Shadow, she has also shown a maniacal interest in her own master, not only in love, since she wants to know about the biology of his body.
 * During the quotes from Vol 5, Eta wanted to inspect Cid's body in a possible way, first making him drink an aphrodisiac without him knowing it. But seeing no reaction, she tried something much deadlier by making him drink a poison that could even kill a dragon, also ineffective. In the end, she resigned herself and was only able to collect the biological immunity that Cid had.
 * In the spin-off KAGEJITSU, when Delta accidentally breaks the artifact that was said to be able to nullify the effects of magic absorption, made by Eta, she decides in the end, to hit Delta, lifting a huge hammer without problem, whose weight is 100 T, (which means 100 tons), implying that her supernatural physical abilities are almost on par with those of the Beastkins, such as Zeta and perhaps Delta, since they are the ones that stand out for their brute strength. as race.
 * In the spin-off KAGEJITSU, Eta seems to notice Epsilon's fishy reaction whenever the topic of slime body and breasts are mentioned, although she is unaware of the former's secret.
 * Like her Master Shadow, it is unknown how many languages Eta has mastered, used, and generally learned. Until now it is only known that apart from knowing the ancient writings and runes, plus the normal language of the Other World, Shadow taught him other languages, and ancient means of communication.
 * Eta has knowledge about communication and language, such as Morse Code and translating a message in Japanese, completely alien to her world. It is speculated that Shadow taught her when they were young.
 * The morse code that Eta sends out at the end of final episode anime season 1 actually spelled out "To be continued".
 * Apparently, the only language that Eta has not yet been able to master or learn well is the language of "English". (TBA)
 * Eta tends to be mistaken for a named number by the other numbers, when she is in fact a Shadow, the numbers are completely baffled on how a girl like Eta or even Gamma can be on the second tier of the organization since they tend to be viewed as the weakest of the seven shadows, or even in all of Shadow Garden.
 * The named Numbers tend to view Eta as the scary, weird older sister, who can look innocent most of the time, by downright obsessive whenever she is in her experimentation Phase, because she tends to use the Shadows and the Named Numbers as Guinea pigs for a wide assortment of drugs and behavioral studies.
