Victoria

Victoria (ウィクトーリア) is a member of Shadow Garden, being one of the Numbers under the codename No. 559 with abilities said to rival the "Seven Shadows". Before joining the organization, she was known as the "Saint" and the former leader of the Templars. She is also a member of Zeta's secret sub-faction.

Appearance
Victoria is a rather statuesque woman, standing nearly as tall as Cid was in his previous life, and towering over 664, 665, and 666. She has long strawberry blonde (pink in the anime) hair that reaches below her hips and covers her left eye.

Victoria is described as an extremely beautiful and good-looking girl, even Rose Oriana describes her beauty as a goddess. Her face normally bears a cold expression with her eyes being lifeless, unless in the presence of Cid and she will suddenly become highly expressive and attentive.

In terms of attire, she wears a unique version of the Shadow Garden standard Slime Bodysuit with a short torn cape on her back and a large shoulder pauldron, giving her an overall more armored look than regular members. A strap continues from the pauldron to her right shoulder and connects to her cape. Her pauldron has several belt straps dangling over her cape, each strap measured at her arm's length. Her attire has a frilled neckline at the collar, dress with a opening at the bust that ends in a tattered material, while there are more belt straps coming from her abdominal section. Her leg are a standard Bodysuit design but with long thigh high boots, or stockings given the clip-on straps, with a pattern at the top then again at her lower legs in a V shape edging, and with short heeled soles.

She is also adorned with a veil on the temples of her head, held there by a tiara giving her the alluded appearance of having horns. In the light novel, these horns are depicted as floating just off the tiara only connected by stands of slime from the bodysuit. While in the manga, the horns are solid in design, more like a one-piece item. In the anime, although brief, her tiara appears to be a one-piece item as well with the horns intact.

The Saint
As Saint, Victoria previously wore, a beautiful bright white outfit, a long apron that covered her reaching down to her feet, not tripping over how long it was. Her arms were covered with tight white sleeves, which covered her from almost her upper arms to her hands. On her breasts, it was the only part of her, which was not white, but rather she had a design of black color, of thin fabric, which refreshed her (according to what is understood).

The ombreras that the victory dress covered as "the Saint", are made of a white feather-shaped designer fabric, to make her look like someone angelic, with golden edges on the tips and sides, and she had a long white cape, which was behind Victoria's back, reaching almost to her knees. On Victoria's neck, it was half covered with a long feather-patterned cloth, with an ornament, in the shape of a golden Jewel right in the center of her neck.

Victoria's hair used to be a semi-golden bainilla color, with bright light blue eyes, which dazzled, even more, the beauty and attraction towards Vistoria, so to avoid in part, that it caused her indecisive attraction, among others, she He covered his eyes with a semi-brown mask with glossy black, with some spider web-like engravings (it seems). Victoria carried with her a crown of golden leaves, which she carried with her on her head, along with a long, thin white apron, which covered part of her hair, from behind, with a feather-like design on the sides, with striped designs. golden, almost on the edges.

Personality
"It’s my duty to purge any who are unworthy of his grace."

- Victoria

Victoria usually holds a very cold and intimidating demeanor due to her tragic past that has lost all her kind and caring side, except in the presence of Shadow or the Seven Shadows. She harbors an absolute and deadly hatred toward the Cult of Diablos as well as the Church and their preaching and is solely dedicated to Shadow Garden's mission of destroying them by all possible means. She is so dedicated that she is very reckless about her own safety and life and ruthless in even killing those whom she believes to be their enemies without any hesitation or remorse, and she is unconcerned about the safety of innocent people. To this end, she would eliminate anyone she deems unworthy to be by her master's side, no matter who it is, even her fellow Shadow Garden members, as she has shown to be strict toward her subordinates, scolding and even branding them as "traitors" should they deviate from their mission.

However, Victoria is not without faults. She is headstrong and reckless, at times charging into battle without any strategy. This is further supported by her communication problems, as she does not even bother to explain mission objectives to her subordinates.

But the truth is that Victoria is a spoiled girl when she is with her master, Shadow. Evidently, she would make a cute expression on her face and grab the sleeve of Shadow's coat which is her first habit after he completely healing her Demon Possession symptoms, also make an dissatisfied expression and kept tugging at his coat sleeve when her request was rejected by Shadow. However, when her wish was granted, her eyes would light up with joy. Victoria still, to this date, likes to tug on his coat whenever she gets the chance to meet him personally.

Similar to the members of the Seven Shadows, Victoria utterly adores Shadow. In his presence, the usual cold demeanor immediately disappears, and she recovers some of her past self. Her attitude is replaced with that of a love-struck yandere. On the other hand, her adoration causes her to be jealous of others. For example, she exhibits needless cruelty toward Rose Oriana (666), whom she considers unworthy of her lord's attention. She also desperately tries to rise through the ranks and wishes to become a higher-ranked member of Shadow Garden and eventually a member of the Seven Shadows so that she can get closer to Shadow.

In the past, Victoria was noted to be a far kinder and more naïve person with her very kind-hearted soul, like an innocent and gentle girl who Cid noted that Cid she was so timid that she couldn't even harm a fly when prior to curing her from her possession on their first meeting. When she used to lead the Templars, Victoria showed great care for her subordinates, although she retained a pleasant, saint-like demeanour at nearly all times, whether it be during battle when Victoria talked about purging heretics or declaring Shadow Garden as a heretical organization that must be cleansed. However, after everyone she once trusted betrayed her following her Demonic Possession, Victoria lost all hope and faith as she sunk into the depths of despair until she was saved by Shadow, resulting in her current personality.

Power & Abilities
Prior to joining Shadow Garden, Victoria was already a powerful individual, being known as the "Saint". Drake considered her to be the most suited to lead the Templars and even the 5th seat of the Knights of Rounds from the Cult of Diablos, Fenrir, acknowledged her capabilities. After joining Shadow Garden, she quickly rose through the ranks and her current abilities are rumored to rival those of the Seven Shadows, with even Alpha noting that she was almost as strong as her when they first met.

Physical Prowess
Victoria was able to almost single-handedly battle a large squadron of high-ranking cult members for three days and nights continuous, without sleeping or eating or drinking anything, although ultimately overwhelmed by fatigue and sheer numbers despite she still wanted to fight despite having her arm has been cut off, a large gash in her stomach, and receive several other injuries. Even so, she defeated the entire group of First Children, even killing off three cult leaders among them, with Kouadoi the only last Cult member that she is about to take him down, before being overwhelmed by him due to her being exhausted.

Swordsmanship
Before joining Shadow Garden, Victoria was already a strong swordsman, trained and prepared by the Church, being able to resist, a battle of attrition, against the 2 of the 7 shadows, (Alpha and Zeta) when they met as children, (according to the game), although it is seen that he had help and company, from his Templar soldiers. But even with all this, the swordsmanship of victory, in terms of discipline and so on, according to the 7 shadows, was lacking, which compared to her Master Shadow swordsmanship and discipline, hers, They are excellent.

When Zeta and Victoria faced each other for the third time, according to Zeta's words, Victoria's swordsmanship was amateurish, she fell even further behind, being able to only resist the pace of their fight, implying that magic fencing and the rest of the 7 Shadows, it was still growing, while Victoria was left behind, like the Saint that was Victoria.

Fencing Upgrade: After being saved by Shadow, and starting to be trained, like the other Shadow garden members, to Lambda guidelines, Victoria's swordsmanship became as good as the Named Numbers of Shadow Garden, becoming faster, penetrating and manageable.

Magic
In terms of magical power, Victoria was already strong before joining Shadow Garden. When she joined the organization after being healed and receiving Shadow's power, her abilities grew to a point where she could nearly rival those of the "Seven Shadows", even being able to defeat some of the weaker members.

Standard Equipment:

 * Sword of "The Saint" (Formerly): Victoria carried with her, previously as "the Saint", a special sword, made of Mithril, according to (it is understood in the game), capable of conducting her magic, made of detailed ornaments, with a feathered wing on the hilt. Said weapon, Victoria handled it well, as the Saint of the Church, and the leader of the Templars. The sword as such could carry 30-50 of Victoria's magic, but according to her, I partly believed that the weapon was blessed, thanks to the Will of the "goddess Beatrix". When Victoria fell under demonic Possession, she lost everything she owned, including her sword, which was given to her. (there is more to detail).
 * Slime Bodysuit: After being rescued and joining Shadow Garden, Victoria received and began to use the Slimo suit, from Shadow Garden, and after understanding its operation and explanation of its use within the organization, Victoria used it and improved to fit her, giving a defense, resistance and versatility and use of magic, much stronger, than when he was as the Saint.
 * Slime Weapons: Like the other members of Shadow Garden, Victoria, can use her Slimo sword, very effectively, being able to be on par in fencing combat being at the level of the "named numbers" I can be able to defeat, from 1 children, even the generals, of the Cult of Diabolos.

Explosive Aura Slash
TBA

"Goddess's" lightning smite (Game)
Victoria as the Saint, he could launch a powerful magic attack, with his sword, charging the magic in it, and then aim it at the sky, capable of launching powerful strong lightning bolts, capable of annihilating many enemies who, if they survived the attack, being an attack of the Lightning element, he would lower them paralyzed, for a few moments, which gave him the opportunity to annihilate them with his sword.

Like Santa that was Victoria, she gave some beautiful dances, along in part with a small prayer to the "goddess Betrix", before launching said magical attack, since according to her belief, this amplified the damage of the attack.

(Although the ability as such is only in-game, it is considered somewhat canonical. As of the current date, it is unknown if he can still cast her again, now as a member of Shadow Garden, as 559. )

Quick Flash
Before joining Shadow garden, Victoria, since she was a child, developed the special ability of magic swordsmen, to be able to move quickly, thanks to the training she received from the church, after being the leader of the paladins. Said special ability, was almost at the level of the Seven Shadows, from Shadow garden, when they met as children, as enemies. (according to Game)

After joining Shadow Garden, Victoria possesses the ability through the use of her magic, to quickly move through any land that she can like any other elite magical swordsman. Under Lambda's training, her Flash ability is upgraded, leveling up to Shadow Garden's "7 Shadow" subordinates.

Trivia

 * Victoria is one of the only two people, except the "Seven Shadows" to receive their powers directly from Shadow himself.
 * Her assigned number in Shadow Garden, "559" has a meaning, in terms of numerology, just like the number "666" carried by the character of Rose Oriana. Its meaning, at the angelic level, "symbolizes a period of change and progress. It guides you to put aside regressive beliefs and make positive changes in your life. It indicates a time of growth, progress and fulfillment."
 * Victoria's assignment number, (if one considers it well), is usually in more agreement with the character, both before and after her strong change in personality.
 * Victoria gained a portion of Epsilon's role in the Web Novel, where she was the injured Shadow Garden member saved from defeat by Shadow.
 * Like Zeta, Victoria does not care about consequences or collateral damage as long as she can accomplish her mission.
 * Victoria is one of the clear examples, although it continues to be very ironic for the majority of society, who witnesses this, that even the most virtuous, fair, believing and devout person can fall before the darkness that lurks in every corner of society. Since this is reflected in the sudden change she suffered, at the personality level, when everything she believed in and had faith in was nothing more than a lie and deceit in almost everything she believed and learned when she became a Santa, and he, like everyone else, humiliated and tortured her, before sentencing her to die, (if it weren't for the Shadow, she would have completely broken).
 * Victoria hair color differs from each adaptation she appears in; in the Light Novel, her hair is described as strawberry blonde, while in the Master of Garden game, her hair is shown to be platinum blonde; and in the Anime, her hair, which was initially shown to be pink in a cameo, is eventually set to be purple, which has already confirmed on the manga covers of Volume 11 and the spin-off Volume 5.
 * Although it was rumored that Victoria magical power was rivaling, or was at the level of the Seven shadows, of Shadow garden, this is only almost, since according to Victoria's own words and her way of expression, she was still being well inferior to them, since the 7, received not only power, but they were disciplined and others by Shadow in person, since they were little, for which he was, even far from being able to reach them. (Until now)
 * It was unknown to what race Victoria belonged as such, both for the Latin American part, as well as for the North American part, for the 3 parts of the story; Light Novel, Manga and Anime, until the release of the Game, where we see that she is an Elf, which was somewhat of a surprise, since it was believed that she was a Human.
 * It is unknown, to this day, why Victoria's hair, like her eyes, changed color strongly, from platinum blonde hair, with light blue eyes, to full pink. Apparently, this is involved, when it happened, he rescued her from Shadow, during Victoria execution, for Demon Possession. (to be confirmed).
 * According to the Game, Victoria seems like she was good at dancing, both for ceremonies she did in private, and sometimes, when she fought in front beautifully. According to her, it seems she did it in honor and pleasure of the Goddess Beatrix, before losing her position as Saint.
 * In the Game, when Victoria prayed to the "goddess Beatrix", she believed that this goddess lived in the heavens, specifically, the Moon. When Zeta met again, Victoria was seen looking at the full Moon, saying oratiba, that it was the Will of the goddess, that they meet again, (according to what is understood)
