Phantylia is a heliobus[3] who serves as one of the seven Lord Ravagers of the Antimatter Legion. She is known for favoring the internal and self-destruction of mortals. She infiltrated the Xianzhou Luofu to revive the Ambrosial Arbor and start a civil war but was defeated.
Profile[]
Origin[]
Phantylia belongs to a class of particularly powerful heliobi that have an especially strong sense of self-awareness. Such heliobi are made up of several heliobi who have resolved their differences and fused into an indissoluble whole. Weaker heliobi fear such beings because getting too close to them will cause them to be absorbed by the more powerful heliobus and permanently lose their sense of self, essentially leading to their death.[3]
At some point, she caught the attention of Nanook, the Aeon of Destruction and soon proved herself to THEM, eventually being given the rank of Lord Ravager. The Nameless were aware of her prior to her infiltration of the Xianzhou Luofu. She finds pleasure in causing the self destruction of mortals.[4] She favors causing destruction through internal collapse.[5]
Phantylia has stolen many bodies and wishes to obtain an indestructible body but knows that this is impossible. She describes herself as a flame of The Blemished One and that if the fuel ever runs out, the fire will also be extinguished.[6]
Activity[]
The Yuque's Divination Commission believed that an unseen and unidentified Lord Ravager caused chaos on at least 122 planets and their ultimate destruction by the Antimatter Legion over the span of 600 years. All reports attribute their demise to internal conflict, spiritual collapse, loss of trust and hope as the main causes.[7] After Phantylia's invasion of the Luofu, the Alliance eventually concluded that she was this unidentified Lord Ravager.[8]
At some point, she intercepted a Whistling Flames ship operated by the foxian Tingyun and stole her identity, using her disguise to infiltrate The Xianzhou Luofu. Tingyun miracuously survived the incident, but Phantylia's actions would contaminate her with the power of Destruction. She made a deal with Dan Shu, the leader of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus, to provide them with a Stellaron and told them that the Ambrosial Arbor would bestow upon them undying bodies once it was revived. She arranged for the Stellaron to be brought aboard the Xianzhou by someone. After Dan Shu was defeated by the Astral Express, she begged Phantylia to uphold their deal. Phantylia ignored her request, instead becoming disgusted as she was now forced to directly intervene, shedding her disguise and sending a large number of Antimater Legion footsoldiers into the Luofu.[4][9]
Phantylia headed to the roots of the Ambrosial Arbor and took control of its power and a body created by the Arbor. After the Trailblazers found her, a battle ensued where she tried to convert Jing Yuan into a member of the Antimatter Legion, believing that it would put the Luofu into chaos. In doing so, a mental link was formed between the two, allowing Dan Heng • Imbibitor Lunae to damage her by attacking Jing Yuan, ejecting her out of her body. Phantylia did not mind, as she had only lost a body stolen on a whim, while taunting Jing Yuan as she wondered how long he would last. Jing Yuan believes that if she had focused on the battle, she would have likely won against them.[10]
At some point after her defeat on the Luofu, Phantylia took on the persona "Mangas" and rallied the borisin into larger packs. She instigated the borisins to free their Warhead Hoolay to sow discord in the Xianzhou.[11]
Heliobus[]
As a heliobus, Phantylia is capable of possessing bodies, such as that of the Ambrosial Arbor. While not possessing a body, such as directly after discarding her Tingyun disguise and after being defeated, Phantylia takes the form of a bright colored, sentient flame that is capable of speech.
