Sefer Yetzirah (OU)

Sefer Yetzirah is a young and mysterious woman. She is leader of the equally mysterious Shinsengumi, and plays a key part in Gabriel Ascheron's plans for universal domination, apparently being needed to activate the Fruit of Knowledge. She possesses the Fruit of Life, and is responsible for unleashing the Stands upon the BZPB Multiverse. As such, she possesses the original Stand; Cruel Angel's Thesis.

Biography
Sefer is charismatic and collected, with a serious demeanor which belies her youthful appearance. This, combined with her confidence, is a major part of her success as leader of the Shinsengumi. She is manipulative, preferring subtle persuasion, and firmly believes that a few well-placed words can affect the outcome of any situation. As such, she can be seen as the ice to Gabriel Ascheron's fire.

Sefer is apparently extremely intelligent, being able to design the technology for the Lurian fleet re-organization project by herself; designs included a mass-production variant of the Icarus weapon, city-scale replicators and multiple infinite energy drive designs. Ascheron suspects she may have stolen these designs, but acknowledges their usefulness regardless. She also fully understands the nature of the Stands.

Ascheron suggests that Sefer supports the Republic because her and it share a common goal; it is not currently known what this is.

The Conflict Begins: Original Sin
Sefer was present on the Assault Shadow even before Ascheron's voyage into Guf. During this time, and after, she had free access to all areas of the ship, including the bridge, throne room and meeting room.

The Speech
Immediately after Ascheron gave his speech to the Republic of Luria, he returned to his quarters, and found Sefer there. The two shared a drink, over which they discussed the morality of his actions, with Sefer suggesting he was a nihilist. Ascheron suggested she was no different, but she disagreed.

Sefer was only actually named during the following post. Altian informed Ascheron that his crew were suspicious of her, at which point Ascheron revealed Sefer's identity, as well as her contributions to the Lurian fleet re-organization project. However, Ascheron also stated that he believed Sefer would become the greatest threat Luria would ever face.

Stand Alone Complex
Sefer later left the Assault Shadow and returned to the Shinsengumi vesssel Kusanagi. She briefly checked on the status of the Fruit of Life, summoning her Stand, Cruel Angel's Thesis.

Cruel Angel's Thesis
Main Article: Cruel Angel's Thesis

Sefer possesses the Stand, Cruel Angel's Thesis. Being the original Stand, it is one of the most powerful. This, combined with Sefer's inherent understanding of Stands, makes Sefer an incredibly dangerous opponent.

Trivia
