Gevurah (Chinese: 格乌拉 Géwūlā), also known by her title, The Archon of Destruction (驱逐舰 统治者 Qūzhújiàn Tǒngzhìzhě) or simply The Destroyer, is an upcoming boss in Realms of the Multiverse. As a cosmic entity, her role is to watch over the borders of the multiverse to take on external threats and euthanise dying universes so their energies can be recycled and used to create new ones. Like her fellow Archons, she is genderless, but is referred to in female pronouns because of her human form.

Design

In her human form, Gevurah appears as a Chinese woman of average height and build in her twenties with long, wavy, brown hair parted in the middle and black lines under her eyes, giving the impression of tears. She wears a white dress slightly above the knees in this form.

As a handgun, Gevurah shares superficial similarities to a revolver, with an orb of shifting colours where her cylinder should be. She is predominantly white in colour, with some parts of her being gold instead.

Personality

Gevurah is a dutiful being who takes her responsibilities seriously to the point of seeming cold or even cruel, both as the Demiurge's enforcer and the leader of her army, and later, as the Archon of destruction, proven in her willingness to fight and possibly kill her sisters. While she may appear callous, she does not take her position as a license to cause wanton destruction. Instead, she compares her role to that of an executioner who culls those that would bring imbalance to the multiverse if left alone, destroying only what needs to be destroyed to keep it in harmony and order and to leave space for new creations to arise. Despite her outward seriousness and her use of archaic language in her speech, she does not care for honourifics, both when being referred and when referring to others, considering them beneath a cosmic being such as herself ever since she defected against her creator.

She rarely expresses emotions, often wearing a blank expression, if not a stern one.

Profile

Realms of the Multiverse

Creation

...And so The Demiurge channelled her strength into her left hand and created Gevurah in her malice; and to this creation she commanded, "become my gun and destroy all who oppose me".

Gevurah was created as part of the Demiurge's attempt to emulate God and create her own host of Angels. In the false god's imperfection, she created the three Archons, all of them bound by time, space, and their own emotions, while carrying an unlimited amount of free will before being severely weakened from the strain. Gevurah was then tasked to enforce her rule and crush dissent among the ghosts of Earth.

Betrayal

While on watch at the edge of the multiverse, Gevurah was visited by Keter, and the Archon of dominion explained her experience of meeting the angel who informed her of their creator's true nature and that of God. Seeing this as an act of treason, Gevurah attacked her sister, initiating a battle where Keter was almost killed. In the last moment, Chesed arrived at the scene, carrying the same message from the angel. Weakened from her previous battle, she was defeated by both sisters, who refused to kill her. Considering her own failure as an unforgivable one the Demiurge would punish her for, she reluctantly joined forces with her two sisters to defeat and seal their creator.

Gears of the Multiverse

To adapt to the new situation, Gevurah took it upon herself to destroy dying universes for Chesed to recycle and create new ones from. She continued to remain vigilant of the border between multiverses, ready to strike at anything that dared enter hers with hostile intent.

Immense spiritual power

Gevurah's spiritual power is far beyond the average Awakened, being able to use the Brahmastra to destroy planets without an incantation.

Immortality

Being an Archon, is ageless and can only die by being killed.

Weaknesses

As a divine being, Gevurah can be harmed by weapons and ammunition made of Soul Stone.

Creation and conception

In addition to the concept in Kabbalah, Gevurah was partially inspired by the Anti Monitor from DC Comics. However, RMD wanted to have a personification of destruction that was amoral, or at least seemed so instead of an outright malevolent entity. Ulquiorra from Bleach was also a partial inspiration for her. Yuqi was chosen to portray her instead of the other members of (G)Idle because he thinks that her deep voice is fitting for a serious looking character who seems cruel.
