Overview
Fadia is an S-Rank Psyche Esper in Neverness to Everness. She wields a transforming Cross-Shield and holds the title of Apostle of Love and Death. Fadia is affiliated with the E.T.D. division of the Bureau of Anomaly Control. Her birthday is October 31.
Fadia has a striking vampire-like appearance and fights as a martial artist wielding a massive tombstone-like cross-shield. She is one of the game's premier tank and support hybrids, capable of redirecting damage from teammates to herself and sustaining the party through self-sacrifice mechanics.
Backstory
Fadia's philosophy centers on the idea that desire is an inescapable burden shared by all of humanity. She expresses this through her signature quote: "Endless desires, never sated; this is the curse that binds you, me, and all of humanity."
As a member of the Bureau's E.T.D. division, Fadia operates alongside other elite Espers in high-risk Anomaly containment operations. Her vampiric nature and self-sacrificial combat style reflect a character who has come to terms with suffering and uses that acceptance as a source of strength.
Combat Abilities
Fadia's kit is built around damage redirection, self-sacrifice, and the powerful Lilith transformation state. She protects her team by absorbing their damage, then converts accumulated suffering into devastating counterattacks. All of her skills have a 100 Cycle Rate, meaning they instantly charge the Esper Cycle meter.
Ability | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
Basic Attack | Wordless Rejection | Performs up to 5 shield attacks. When Fadia's HP is above 1, she redirects a portion of teammate damage to herself (mitigated by her shield). When her HP drops to 1, she shares incoming damage equally with surviving teammates. |
Skill | Existence | Deals 1 instance of Psyche DMG to a target area and applies Destructive Experience to the enemy with the highest max HP. A portion of Fadia's damage is then redirected to the marked target. |
Ultimate | Agony to Euphoria | Enters the Lilith state, dealing 6 instances of Cognito DMG and healing Fadia. During Lilith state, she can recast her basic attack up to 5 times. When lost HP reaches the Destructive Threshold, her ultimate immediately recharges. |
Outsider | Swings her shield, dealing 1 instance of Psyche DMG to the surrounding area. | |
Passive 1 | Furnace of Guilt | When Nova expires on enemies, the team siphons 20% of the enemy's max HP (up to 1000), capped at 30% of Fadia's base max HP. |
Passive 2 | Denial and Plunder | When Fadia is in the team, increases team max HP by 10%. |
Awakening
Fadia's Awakening progression transforms her from a sturdy tank into a nearly unkillable self-healing juggernaut:
Node | Effect |
|---|---|
A1 | Damage redirect from teammates reaches 100%, meaning Fadia absorbs all incoming damage intended for allies. |
A3 | +30% base max HP, significantly increasing Fadia's survivability and the cap on Furnace of Guilt healing. |
A5 | +50% CRT rate while in Lilith state, dramatically boosting her damage output during her ultimate. |
A6 | Destructive Experience can now be applied to up to 10 targets simultaneously, enabling massive AoE damage redirection. |
Trivia
Fadia's birthday on October 31 (Halloween) aligns perfectly with her vampire aesthetic and gothic character design.
The Lilith state references the mythological figure Lilith, who is often associated with darkness and rebellion in various cultural traditions.
Her 100 Cycle Rate on all skills makes her one of the fastest Esper Cycle chargers in the game, allowing frequent character rotations.
The "Apostle of Love and Death" title reflects her dual nature: she protects her team (love) through self-destruction (death).
