History Characters / SaikyouJuzokuTenseiCountJulemAndCohorts

* BatmanGambit: [[spoiler: He was the one responsible for Firo getting separated from the Abel search party, by attracting monsters to the caravan she was in. This makes her reach Russell village earlier than Gizel and her group, so that she would warn Abel in advance of his sister, and have him consider leaving the Fage territory]].
* DirtyCoward: He spends his confrontation with Abel using Gizel as a HumanShield, knowing Abel can't attack him and [[AlwaysSaveTheGirl risk hurting his sister]]. When Abel shields himself from his attacks, he threatens to shoot his stone arrows at the nearby civilians. When Abel figures a way to hit him and miss Gizel, he shrinks his mass into tentacles tangling her neck and limbs, and [[SadisticChoice threatens him to tear her limb from limb unless he surrender]]. When Abel tries to negotiate with him, he pretends to agree and [[ILied then says he lied]], telling him he'll kill him anyway, kidnap Mea and keep Gizel as [[AndIMustScream a stone statue with her mind intact forever]], and petrifies her. [[VillainBall which proves to be his undoing]].

* KickTheDog: He [[TakenForGranite turns Gizel to stone]] while [[PrideBeforeAFall he's gloating to Abel]], exposing himself for the latter to launch an attack that will only hurt Sim, and leave Gizel unharmed. Abel even wonders what made him do that so suddenly.

* NoOntologicalInertia: When Abel turned his petrification curse on him and defeated him, every person he just petrified in the city, Gizel included, were turned back to normal. [[spoiler: When he was [[KilledOffForReal killed while a part of Silfheim]], [[MissingMom Nelea]] was turned back to normal]].

* ToxicFriendInfluence: When Gizel and the Marren teens (sans Firo) reached Palgas village looking for Abel, he convinces Gizel to forget about Firo, preying on her jealousy and awareness of the latter's feelings toward her brother.
-->'''Sim (writing in the book's page)''': "I'm sure this Firo kid will slip through the cracks. You'd better leave her behind while you still can. I was betrayed by a girl like that when I was human. Besides, you shouldn't be wasting your time here."

** He appeared to Gizel as a spirit of Marren woman whose brother ran away from the village before their wedding.

A famous sorcerer genius who lived and died 500 years or so. Revealed to have been a High-ranking Spirit similar to Count Julem and works along with him in their evil plan. He was also the kind peddler who helped Abel escape his village, '''James'''.

* CombinationAttack: He and Julem trap Abel with a powerful water flood for the latter to defend himself with a barrier of Hydeem Magimetal, trapping himself for James to attack him with his chaos element magic from above. Abel sees through it and has Quetzalcoatl move and shoot at him with his [[BreathWeapon Sacred Flames]]. He flies to escape them, only for them to track him and blow up at him, [[NotQuiteDead temporarily removing him from the fight]].

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: During their first fight, Abel, using a ploy to trick James into thinking he's switched to defense, quickly [[WeaponizedTeleportation teleports his Chaos magic]] to the totems he caught in his hands, causing his [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe body to be torn apart]], defeating him... only to turn out it to be a [[DeliberateInjuryGambit ploy to escape unnoticed]].

* LackOfEmpathy: In contrast with the [[GoodSamaritan affable and kind person]] was to Abel and Mea, James is actually devoid of emotions. When he appeared to assist Julem, he didn't show a reaction to seeing Abel again, and was dismissive of him.

-->'''James''': "It's not like we're relying on Moebius that much either. Please be prepared for this, Abel. You've been too persistent against us individually. You're no longer a convenient puppet, and you can no longer be considered a slightly obtrusive pebble rolling in front of Kudor. I'll do everything in my power to eliminate you. It would be unfortunate for both of us, though."

-->[[spoiler:'''James''': "The way I see it, [[ImpossibleTask that thing won't budge even if we do it for ten thousand years]]!"]]

-->'''James''': "It's not very realistic to protect you repeatedly while fighting. Don't get your hopes up."

* TwoAliasesOneCharacter: He was '''James''', the peddler who took Mea and Abel on his wagon and left them in Lomarn city. Abel, for a while, thought he was Count Julem after hearing Dafne's story, and concluded that he was "[[UnwittingPawn dancing in the palm of his hand the entire time]]".

-->[[spoiler: '''James''': "The last to laugh will be us, who have [[TheAgeless lived far longer than the humans]], Abel-kun. Then ...... we shall never meet again".]]\\

* WeakButSkilled: Compared to [[PersonOfMassDestruction Julem]], James is lower in magic than him, but he's [[TheArchmage far better than him]] at using it to simply destroy his target with Chaos magic. He just can't afford to use it willy-nilly.

* GoAndSinNoMore: [[spoiler: Abel tries to {{invoke|dTrope}} the trope on her, asking her to leave peacefully and hide from Kudor, out of [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe gratitude of her and James being the reason he and Mea met]], even admitting that was selfish of him. [[SubvertedTrope She refuses]]]].

* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler: She and James escape justice for their crimes, with their [[AllForNothing 10,000 year-old plan failing]] and [[DwindlingParty three of their cohorts dead]] as a consequences. The fact that they'll have to work alone for their new plans and hide from Kudor, [[SternChase who is chasing them]], [[{{Determinator}} isn't a deterrent for them]]]].

-->'''Abel (narrating)''': ..there is one person around me who has been giving me advice on what to do everywhere I go, just like Gizel's travel guide was Sim. [[OhCrap And now she's accompanying Mea]].

* PostClimaxConfrontation: [[spoiler: Tries to kill a weakened Abel while he's resting and recovering his magic, minutes after he defeated [[FinalBoss Silfheim]]. Setting up for one last battle... [[SubvertedTrope before James break it off]]]].

* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler: Her bravado collapse and she falls on her [[ImMelting melting knees]] in the water, after hearing from James that the "Reincarnation Project" has failed]].
* WeWillMeetAgain: [[spoiler: {{Inverted|Trope}}, thanks to James]].
* UncertainDoom: [[spoiler: She and James [[NoOneCouldSurviveThat survive the destruction of Silfheim by the Abel Cannon]] but were heavily injured, and [[KnowWhenToFoldEm escape to hide from Kudor]] before she breaks free from the PrisonDimension she was trapped in. James claims that their remaining strength will be enough to evade Kudor once she chases after them]].
* TheUnfought: Zigzagged. She's the only member of Julem's group who didn't fight Abel, alone or in their group attack. But then she fights him as [[SplitPersonalityMerge Silfheim]] indirectly. [[spoiler: Then she attacks him and tries to kill him via drowning [[PostClimaxConfrontation after Silfheim's death]] and he actually fights her... but then James arrives to break it off]]!

* MyDefenseNeedNotProtectMeForever: [[spoiler: Abel {{invoke|dTrope}}s this on her. He plays up to her sadistic nature by attacking her with Ortems for her to easily break them left and right, even [[SacrificalLion letting her destroy his Babylon 8000]], and [[DoWellButNotPerfect appears desperate and keeps fighting]]. Moebius ends up exhausting both her stamina and magic in the fight, causing her to eventually slip and expose herself to a [[HeroicSecondWind strong counter attack]] from Abel. When she gets back up and declares that she'll stop holding back and kill him, she was too late, as [[TheStrategist Abel has already finished setting up the means to her downfall]], leading to her defeat]]:

* DarkChick: The only female in the group, and seems unsuited for combat. [[spoiler: However, see CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass]].

* PintSizedPowerHouse: Thanks to her 10,000 years of training, she can use, on a bigger scale, the powers of the Doom tribe and their [[BizarreHumanBiology unique biology]] to enhance her strength, gaining both SuperStrength and SuperToughness in the process, in [[TheChick Mea]]'s body. Both of Abel's [[DeployableCover Hydeem Magimetal]] and [[AttackDrone Ortems]] get effortlessly smashed by her.
* PowersViaPossession: The [[MuggleBornOfMages magically inept]], [[TheChick helpless girl]] that Mea was transformed after getting possessed into a PintSizePowerhouse, KungFuWizard with access to [[CastingAShadow the darkness elemental magic]], AxCrazy, PersonOfMassDestruction capable of [[KillTheGod fighting off a god]]!!

* ToxicFriendInfluence: When Gizel and the Marren teens (sans Firo) reached Palgas village looking for Abel, he convinces Gizel to forget about Firo, and preying on Gizel's jealousy.

* ToxicFriendInfluence: When Gizel and the Marren teens (sans Firo) reached Palgas village looking for Abel, he convinces Gizel to forget about Firo, [[ItAmusedMe for some reason]].

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The chapter he appears in front of Peter and Myunhi. Sitting in Peter's own chair, surrounded by the corpses of many of Peter's highly trained sorcerers and fighters, he [[BreakThemByTalking tells Peter that everything he did to unseal Kudor]] was [[AllAccordingToPlan all part of his plan]] to Peter's horror, and [[BreakTheBadass scares Myunhi]] by threatening to [[ForcedTransformation turn her into a frog]], then [[IWasJustJoking tells her that he was just kidding]] and laughs as she faints from the shock alone.

* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: He finds himself in the wrong end of one, courtesy of [[GoodIsNotSoft Kudor]], while he was [[EvilKnockoff disguised in her image]]. She tears him in half, beats him to a bulb with her tentacles until he shrinks to his true form, [[ForcedTransformation turns him into a fogg]], then finishes him [[KilledOffForReal once and for all]] with one last tentacle slap.

%%* JerkassGenie

'''Count Julem and Cohorts'''-]]]]]

** She manages to block [[TheBigGuy Babylon 8000]]'s arms with her hands, rip '''four''' of them after that. Later she overpowers and rips another arm, then '''[[WreckedWeapon destorys Babylon 8000]]''' beyond repair with a torrent of “[[SphereOfDestruction Darkness Ball]]” spells!

* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness

* AchillesHeel: Since they are high-ranking spirits with immense amounts of magic and no ''organic'' bodies, their [[AwesomeButImpractical consumption of magic is inefficient]], and regaining it takes a really ''slow time'' to happen. This is why they would rather deplete [[ArchNemesis Kudor]]'s magic first by [[LetYouAndHimFight manipulating the human Kingdoms to attack her]] first, than [[DirtyCoward having to fight her at all]].

A famous sorcerer genius who lived and died 500 years or so. Revealed to have been a High-ranking Spirit similar to Count Julem and works along with him in their evil plan. He was also the kind peddler who helped Abel escape his village, '''James (ジェーム)'''.

** She is, by far, the only opponent that [[spoiler: actually [[NotSoInvincibleAfterAll got to inflict wounds]] to [[InvincibleHero Abel]]]]!!

* PersonOfMassDestruction: All of her attacks packs quite the punch, and slowly threatens to cause the temple she's fighting Abel in to collapse. Her physical attacks are enough to destroys Abel's Deployable cover, her “Wings of Destruction” shoots crystals to [[AbnormalAmmo with a speed enough to pierce and penetrate armor]], can control '''TWENTY magic circle''' in parallel to perform “[[SphereOfDestruction Darkness Ball]]” spells and that is just her [[JustToyingWithThem holding back]] on Abel to prolong his suffering!!

* KickTheDog: When Moebius awakened after possessing Mea's body, Shame does one cruel prank on Abel, before [[TroLl telling him the truth to mess with him]]. [[FakeKillScare It works]]:

* TemptingFate: She gloats to Abel, after blindsiding him with her PlayingPossum act, that he'll need to put “a hundred times more magic power into it” to work. [[SubvertedTrope Abel cannot do that]], since increasing the output [[AccidentalMurder might kill Mea]] in the process. [[spoiler: Then it is DoubleSubverted, as [[DoubleMeaning he uses this]] to defeat her, by having the same spell shot at her, [[BeamSpam times hundred]]!!]]

* CharmPerson: Stated to have the ability to [[{{Brainwashing}} enslave and bend her whole tribe to her will]]. Silfhiem made it so that only a red stone Doom clansman can have that ability to control them, if they get out of line, and only Moebius knows how to.

* TheAntichrist: Created by the [[GreaterScopeVillain Sky God Silfheim]] by smelting humans and demons together, and became the proginator of his HenchmanRace, so that she could procreate with Norcs to build her own tribe, lead them to aid her creator in TakingOverTheWorld and defeating [[BigGood Kudor]].

* TheDragon: She was meant to be this for Silfheim, in order to lead his HenchmanRace, the Doom tribe, to do his bidding and fight his battles for him.

* EvilMatriarch: She thinks of her distant grandchildren as nothing but [[HenchmanRace pawns at her disposal]] for the Sky God, and rubs in Abel's face how little Mea matters to her:

** Abel'a [[DeploybleCover Hydeem Magimetal]] easily cracks and shatters to her hits and “[[FlechetteStorm Wings of Destruction]]”.

* PersonOfMassDestruction: All of her attacks packs quite the punch, and slowly threatens to cause the temple she's fighting Abel in to collapse. Her physical attacks are enough to destroys Abel's Deployble cover, her “Wings of Destruction” shoots crystals to [[AbnormalAmmo with a speed enough to pierce and penetrate armor]], can control '''TWENTY magic circle''' in parallel to perform “[[SphereOfDestruction Darkness Ball]]” spells and that is just her [[JustToyingWithThem holding back]] on Abel to prolong his suffering!!

Both of Abel's [[DeployableCover Hydeem Magimetal]] and [[AttackDrone Ortems]] get effortlessly smashed by her.
