History Characters / FireForceWhiteClad

* AnthropomorphicPersonification: [[spoiler:Embodies all despair in existence and seeks to destroy everything as a result. The form she assumes isn't her true one, which she reveals at the very end as a swirling vortex of hate and wrath with three unsightly, hideous eyes calling back to Asura from Manga/SoulEater. Makes sense, as Shinra is forced to create the world of ''Soul Eater'' thanks to her.]]
* AsLongAsThereIsEvil: [[spoiler:As the manifestation of mankind's despair, it's implied as long as mankind despairs she will return in some shape or form.]]

* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: [[spoiler:Prequel in this case, and to Asura from Manga/SoulEater. The Evangelist is a supreme deity of all existence and a GodOfEvil who roams freely seeking to envelop the world in despair by destroying it. Shinra creates Death to take her place so he can absorb some of the despair instead of spread it, while Death himself would later create Asura from his fear and be forced to [[SealedEvilInACan seal him.]] Asura is not a supreme deity, but poses just as much of a threat by instead wishing to turn [[InfectiousInsanity all of mankind]] [[FateWorseThanDeath insane.]] Plus, their ultimate fates are different. While Shinra manages to rewrite the rules of what constitutes despair and destroys the Evangelist forever, Asura is allowed to endure because he embodies the world's fear and there is no way to actively change it since it's an essential part of human nature, so the best they can do is seal him again and pray he doesn't escape.]]

* EldritchAbomination: An otherworldly being of supreme power we never get a proper look at who wants nothing but suffering for mankind. [[spoiler:The closest we see of what she ''really'' looks like is a mass of darkness with three inhuman, alien eyes. Likely because it's the closest humans can ever get to comprehending what she is.]]

* GreaterScopeVillain: The Evangelist is directly or indirectly responsible for most of the evils in the Fire Force universe. And most ArcVillain characters work for her.[[spoiler:It is implied she may be one for the Soul Eater verse as well. Since she is the manifestation of the collective deepest feelings of humankind, the despair of all humanity in one single form, she may have lingered on to take another form in the shape of Asura, the collective mass of Death's own fears which gained power on its own, and other Kishins.]]
* TheHeartless: [[spoiler:Haumea claims that she is the manifestation of the collective deepest feelings of humankind, the despair of all humanity in one single form.]]

* NearVillainVictory: [[spoiler:Succeeds in bringing about the second Great Cataclysm, wiping out all life in existence save those still trapped in Adolla and leaving nothing but an empty void of despair. Then Shinra turns the tables by becoming [[DeityOfHumanOrigin Shinra-Banshoman]] and recreating everything, reviving the deceased, and restoring hope to the world by lessening the severity of Death. [[VillainousBreakdown She doesn't end up too happy about that.]]]]
* OmnicidalManiac: Her goal, at least how the knights interpret it, is to turn the planet into a star by setting it on fire.

* TimeAbyss: She is at least thousands of years old. [[spoiler:She created the Sun itself. That places her real age in the ''billions'' at minimum.]]

* ArcherArchetype: Arrow uses a bow of flame to fire arrows. She falters at close range and is often independent.

** During the fight in the Haijima facility, she uses her electric powers to create something akin to [[Franchise/SpiderMan Spiderman's]] spider web to stay in the air between tall buildings ([[https://imgur.com/a/es2das0 screencaps]]).

* BoobsOfSteel: The bustiest member of the Ashen Knights, and also the female with the most blatantly destructive powers - namely her arrows.

* BoobsOfSteel: Possesses an ample bosom comparable to Arrow's one and is more action oriented than her commander Ritsu.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: When she was a child, Haumea's clothing had no footwear attached. Now that she's older, it includes sandals.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Always barefoot.

* PeekABangs: Her fringe covers the left side of her face completely.

* ContraltoOfDanger: Her voice is husky and mature, reflecting her professionalism and seriousness (especially compared to the likes of [[PsychopathicManchild Haumea]] or [[CuteAndPsycho Inca]]).

* WhipItGood: She creates a fiery whip with her power named Medusa Whip. When its spinning it can block bullets, but when its straight it has a powerful offense that can kill anyone who doesn't have a strong resistance to fire and harm those who do.

* HistoricalRapSheet: It is speculated that the Evangelist has been creating demons and inspiring religions across the globe for all of human history. She is directly responsible for the Great Cataclysm that nearly destroyed the world in the series' past. [[spoiler:The Sun itself only exists because she successfully enacted her current goal on an unknown planet long before humanity existed.]]

* HistoricalRapSheet: It is spectated that the Evangelist has been creating demons and inspiring religions across the globe for all of human history. She is directly responsible for the Great Cataclysm that nearly destroyed the world in the series' past. [[spoiler:The Sun itself only exists because she successfully enacted her current goal on an unknown planet long before humanity existed.]]

* BareYourMidriff

** [[spoiler:Amaterasu embodies Madness, Haumea is Passivity, Sho is Apathy, Shinra and Inca are Rage and Destruction respectively, Sumire is Disgust and Iris represents the end product; Despair itself. Nataku's vice is left unknown.]]

* TheBadGuyWins: [[spoiler:Succeeds in bringing about the second Great Cataclysm, wiping out all life in existence save those still trapped in Adolla and leaving nothing but an empty void of despair. Then Shinra turns the tables by becoming [[DeityOfHumanOrigin Shinra-Banshoman]] and recreating everything, reviving the deceased, and restoring hope to the world by lessening the severity of Death. [[VillainousBreakdown She doesn't end up too happy about that.]]]]

* AchievementsInIgnorance: [[spoiler:Dragon's survival in the vacuum of space is mostly down to[[YourMindMakesItReal his connection to the Adolla allowing him to bend the rules of reality to fit his self image and understanding of what the world is]]. His supreme confidence in his own indestructibility combined with the fact Dragon doesn't know he should be dying means he's able to breath and talk just fine.]]

!!!Voiced by: Akinori Egoshi (Japanese)

* ShoutOut: Her various abilities are named after English language bands, such as Music/RadioHead, Motorhead, {{Music/Talking Head|s}}.

* CryCute: Fitting with his young age Sho looks adorable crying upon [[spoiler:remembering memories as a baby with Sho through their Adolla Link.]]

* NotSoStoic: It takes a lot to get a reaction out of Sho but over time a LuminescentBlush or CryCute are the most obvious displays of emotion.

* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: [[spoiler:Prequel in this case, and to Asura from Manga/SoulEater. The Evangelist is a supreme deity of all existence and a GodOfEvil who roams freely seeking to envelop the entire world in despair by destroying it. Shinra creates Death to take her place so he can absorb some of the despair instead of spread it, while Death himself would later create Asura from his fear and be forced to [[SealedEvilInACan seal him.]] Asura is not a supreme deity, but poses just as much of a threat by instead wishing to turn [[InfectiousInsanity all of mankind]] [[FateWorseThanDeath insane.]] Plus, their ultimate fates are different.

* OutsideContextVillain: The Fire Force is designed to research a disease, protect people and fight the occasional criminal. An extra dimensional being with plans for the entire planet that has shown up out of nowhere was not expected.

* RealityWarper: The full extent of her abilities is unknown, but she can casually ignore any known scientific laws and impact the entire universe, if necessary. With her powers, even something as ridiculous as turning a small terrestrial planet into a fully functioning star is entirely possible.

* FishOutOfWater: Begin raised by a cult underground means that Sho has basically no idea how to deal with the surface world. When trying to blend into a crowd and remaining inconspicuous; he ends up picking up clothes so stylish that passersby stop are stare at him.

* MindScrew: Everyone watching him fight completely loses tract of what he is actually doing. It takes a genius to figure out what his power is and even then Shō's ability is too powerful to break.

* AxCrazy: Though slightly more (big emphasis on "slightly") subdued than the likes of Haumea, Inca is basically insane and shows excitement at the prospect of seeing people die horribly and feeling the sensation of danger.

* HateSink: Aside from [[{{Meido}} Ritsu]], nobody cares for Inca. ''Nobody''. Her callous attitude towards others, her disdain for a normal life and ''need'' for an adrenaline rush, the fact that she murdered her friend without a second thought (who was trying to save her) and countless other heinous actions have ensured that she pretty much earned the enmity of all those around her. [[spoiler:Largely {{subverted|Trope}} by the epilogue, settling more for a FriendlyEnemy relationship with Shinra, and the possibility she became the mother of Shinra's child.]]

* JapaneseDelinquents: Her gang are basically this. Wearing masks to hide their faces during their criminal activities. Although Inca herself seems like a normal student.

* SanitySlippage: While Inca was never entirely sane she seemed to have some attachment for her associates Sancho and Panda, as well as for her friend of the school. After discovering the true extent of her powers and joining the White Clad, Inca loses any restraint she had before. Fully embraces the chaos and destruction the Evangelist is planning to unleash, becoming much more noticeably unhinged and deranged.

* TheDragon: To Haumea and is one of the strongest characters in the entire series.

* FighterMageThief: Among the Guardians of the Pillars belonging to the White Clad, he's the Fighter. Charon is a mountain of muscles who displays great physical prowess in battle, being able to throw powerful blows and being a very skilled martial artist. His Second Generation ability also makes him the perfect tank, being able to stand, absorb and redirect powerful attacks, even nuclear blasts with enough power to blow up an entire city.

* UnstoppableForceMeetsImmovableObject: Charon is basically invincible so [[spoiler:Kurono]] can't hurt him. But [[spoiler:Kurono]] is so skilled that Charon can't do anything to him.
* VillainousValor: [[spoiler:Risked his life to deflect a huge nuke fired by Nataku that would have obliterated the entire city. Granted, he had to protect the Pillars gathered in the area, but still.]]

* TheChessmaster: [[spoiler:The whole Joint Investigation arc is a big gambit of Ritsu to lure Companies 2 and 8 to the Nether and kill enough people to create an army of Infernals to blow up the entire Tokyo Empire.]]

* {{Meido}}: Has this aesthetic, and even refers to herself as Inca's maid.

* NiceHat: Wears on the top of her head what it seems to be a nurse hat.

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Juggernaut slams a missile into her face with so much force it crushes the left side of her face, pops out her right eye from its orbit and even apparently breaks her neck in the process. Then it explodes [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill with the explosion of the bomb being so great it's implied it reduced her to nothing]].

* ShoutOut: She's an obvious reference to Medusa from author Atsushi Okubo's [[Manga/SoulEater previous work]]. She's a female antagonist with greenish yellow hair named after a mythological figure related to snakes and even her ability is called Medusa Whip.

* TheDreaded: To Arthur specifically and to Company 8 by extension. Once Dragon makes himself known to them they build entire combat strategies around conserving strength in case Dragon shows up. Arthur just seems to know when Dragon is on his way.

* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: [[spoiler:After just doing this to Arthur in their rematch, he in turn gets the entire left half of his body disintegrated by Arthur's Violet Flash: Planet Divider.]]
* HumanoidAbomination: [[spoiler:Though some kind of Pyrokinetic Generation, it's not clear if he's entirely human. He came into existence after the first Cataclysm in destroyed parts of the world, has lived for centuries, and as a late has been considered the incarnation of despair whose negativity keeps the Great Cataclysm going. It's implied he's the living incarnation of the human collective thought of a great beast that lives within the skies that inspired stories of Dragons]]

* PersonOfMassDestruction: He has been one throughout his entire life, having his spent his early years from childhood wrecking the landscape and splitting oceans while destroying what little remained of civilization.

* YourSizeMayVary: Dragon's size is in constant flux. When he's doing nothing he is still twice Arthur's height (meaning at least 10 foot tall) but when he attacks his fist are bigger than a human's entire upper body. When people start to feel overwhelmed by him, Dragon appears as a colossus blocks out the sky.

* KillThemAll: Her goal, at least how the knights interpret it, is to turn the planet into a star by setting it on fire.

* BlindingBangs: Her bangs are so long they cover her eyes completely.

* UnderestimatingBadassery: Dismishes Obi as a weakling cause he doesn't possesses any fire manipulation ability. [[BadassNormal Obi]] proves him wrong and defeates him of a single punch to the face.

* DeviousDaggers: In addition os possessing an Ignition Ability, he's seen carrying a dagger with him, that he uses to try to kill Tamaki before being stopped by Captain Honda.

* ItsAllAboutMe: Inca cares about her own happiness above all else. If many people end up dying just to excite her, ''so be it''. [[spoiler:She later downplays this in the final chapter, as while she's still causing problems in the world as the first Witch, she's not going around killing people anymore and is only doing it to have Shinra's attention on her, wanting to give birth to his child as thanks for saving her and continuing Shinra's heroic legacy.]]

* LackOfEmpathy: Inca has no regard for anyone but herself. She happily indulges in atrocities without a second thought for any suffering she causes as long as she can get her thrills. [[spoiler:She would burn one of her only friends to death without a second thought if her powers show the possibility.]]

* NeverMyFault: A hallmark of her character is her avoidance of responsibility. For all her talk about her powers showing what's predetermined, she ignores the fact that she's the one who actually triggers the lines and has never considered NOT activating them. [[spoiler:When her friend Panda makes a misguided attempt to "rescue" her from the White Clad, she sees the lines around him. She thinks to herself that it was meant to be and nonchalantly burns him alive before continuing on her way without missing a beat.]]

* SanitySlippage: While Inca was never entirely sane she seemed to have some attachment for her associates Sancho and Panda, as well as for her friend of the school. However, after discovering the true extent of her powers [[spoiler:and joining the White Clad, Inca loses any restraint she could had before and fully embraces the chaos and destruction the Evangelist is planning to unleash, becoming more unhinged and deranged.]]

* ShoutOut: Her hoodie has the same eye marks as Medusa, a major villain of ''Manga/SoulEater''. [[spoiler:Th connection between the two is much deeper than shown as Inca is revealed to the the predecessor to all Witches in the final chapters.]]

* SquishWizard: Inca's fire prediction and direction powers make her very destructive in a fight, but she has no physical combat abilities and her powers require time to properly use so she requires constant protection. Ritsu was assigned as her guardian so she could always have a small army to keep enemies at bay.
* StrawNihilist: Inca doesn't see any inherent value in life beyond entertainment, so she gladly goes along with the White Clad's apocalyptic plans purely to indulge her need for excitement. She doesn't even care that her own death is required as she would rather die than live a "boring" life.

* YouCantFightFate: The weakness of her explosive power is that she cannot use it without seeing a pathway of heat to control. Inca interprets this as she is fated to attack some people and not others. [[NeverMyFault This also means she feels no regret or shame when using her power when she can]].

* DissonantSerenity: Despite her real intentions exposed, she still has a very calm expression when confronted by Hibana.

* NervesOfSteel: She basically has to dodge shots from a tank and will do it without a shred of panic.

* EvilVersusEvil: They will fight against people who are just as terrible as they are if get their way.
* HolyHitman: Many of the members can and will act as assassins when needed. Assault even describes himself as an assassin.

* TheyCallHimSword: The majority of them don't use traditional names. Instead, they are named after their ability or their function. It's possible many of them don't have real names and some of their agents are just using aliases when interacting with wider society. Only the upper ranks seem to have actual names.

* SuperSpeed: He can travel a fair distance, calming observe someone, come to a decision and attack within the span of a second. [[spoiler:It's later revealed his speed is more due to time dilation than actual speed.]]

* CosmicKeystone: [[spoiler:She has the Adolla Burst and it makes her very valuable.]]

* FaceHeelTurn: She was never a good person, given that, though she rescued people from fires, she did it for profit, but at least showed some care for his close friends. Unfortunately, upon discovering that what she truly wants is a world where she feels constantly in danger, [[spoiler:she willingly joins the White Clad and becomes a full-fledged antagonist, rejecting Shinra's offer to get rescued by Company 8 and abandoning her old life by killing her former friend Panda.]]
* TheFatalist: The nature of her power causes Inca to believe that events are inevitable, thus causing her to commit horrible acts without a care in the world.

* LackOfEmpathy: Inca has no regard for anyone but herself. [[spoiler:She would burn one of her only friends to death without a second thought if her powers show the possibility. ]]

* NeverMyFault: A hallmark of her character is her avoidance of responsibility. For all her talk about her powers showing what's predetermined, she ignores the fact that she's the one who actually triggers the lines and has never considered NOT activating them. [[spoiler:When she sees the lines around her friend Panda, she nonchalantly thinks to herself that she has no choice and it is not her fault for burning hm alive.]]
* NightmareFetishist: She's really into the idea of danger and the risk of death. It makes some her conversations with [[spoiler:Shinra]]... [[InterplayOfSexAndViolence interesting]].

* PsychoForHire: She doesn't really have any loyalty to the White-Clad or believe in the Evangelist's cause. She's just with them because she sees more potential for thrills and power as part of their faction.
* PsychopathicManchild: She couldn't care less about the consequences of her actions or human life. As long as she can get her kicks by being in dangerous situations and playing with super powers, she'll gladly help burn the world, including herself. She'd happily rather the watch the whole of humanity die than risk ever being bored.
* RedOniBlueOni: The red to Ritsu's blue. Unlike her Guardian, Inca is excitable, seeks thrill and takes things lightly, though in this case, their opposing personalities make them work efficiently as a team, with Inca being able to predict accidents that can allow Ritsu to employ her necromantic abilities better. They are even ColorCodedForYourConvenience, with Inca sporting pink hair to contrast Ritsu's blue one.

* ShoutOut: Her hoodie has the same eye marks as Medusa, a major villain of ''Manga/SoulEater''.
* TheSociopath: Once she peels back the layers this is all she is. Inka is a shallow person devoid of empathy, obsessed with her own pleasure and believes that because life is important '''her''' life is more important than anyone else's.

* EnemyMine: [[spoiler:Having left the White Clad alongside Sho, she ends up directly teaming with Company 8 when Sho disappears to Adolla along with Shinra and Iris. The heroes haven't forgotten her crimes, [[ButForMeItWasTuesday not that she really cares or regrets what she did]], but considering the White Clad are seemingly one step away from the EndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt, they don't really have time to debate.]]

* OverarchingVillain: She's just a henchman, but Arrow shows up multiple times within several arcs. [[spoiler:She is finally defeated and seemingly killed 4 arcs after her debut.]]
** [[spoiler:Turns out she's still alive and causing trouble.]]

* KnifeNut: In addition os possessing an Ignition Ability, he's seen carrying a dagger with him, that he uses to try to kill Tamaki before being stopped by Captain Honda.
