Blue Archive Gematria / Characters

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gematria_members.png

The Members of Gematria.

A mysterious group of foreign researchers and explorers who came to Kivotos to study its secrets... by any means necessary. Considerably elusive and lacking any concrete information on who they are, they are an enigma, even for a city like Kivotos.

Despite their amoral nature and willingness to trample others in the name of their research, some of their members have occasionally approached Schale to guide them toward dealing with larger threats...

In General

Above Good and Evil: Gematria's members could care less about the ethics of turning a school into an army or betraying a desperate third-year just to get at her powers.
Always a Bigger Fish: When Gematria tries to stop the invasion of the False Sanctums, the mysterious entity behind the invasion sends a dark version of Shiroko to kill them all.
Big Bad: Save for Volume 2, they are involved with much of the plot of the game, working from the shadows to manipulate other factions to do their bidding before eventually being confronted in one way or another.
Eldritch Abomination: In a city of girls with halos, robots, and even talking animals, Gematria's members stand out with their far more peculiar physical appearances.
Even Evil Has Standards: While Beatrice is unambiguously evil, the other Gematria members tend to be more gray. Black Suit, Maestro, and Golconde & Decalcomania are far more ambivalent when it comes to morals, and in the Final Volume, even they realize that allowing the False Sanctums to invade Kivotos is bad for them, so they take steps to defend the city their own way. They even execute Beatrice themselves when they learn she's in league with the Chroma.
Evil Counterpart: Like Sensei, they pride themselves in being "adults". But where Sensei makes it their task to guide and help the next generation, the members of Gematria see their experience as a pass to exploit and manipulate for their own gain. Beatrice even more so, as she is technically the teacher of Arius, a position she uses to drill and destroy all hopes and dreams in her students. Interestingly, this counterpart relationship means that most of Gematria is on surprisingly good terms with Sensei, who they see as a peer despite radically different ideologies.
Knight of Cerebus: The usual slice-of-life nature of Blue Archive can quickly go out the window whenever a member of Gematria reveals themselves.
Mad Scientist: Their research takes priority, even if it means that students have to suffer to achieve results. Just ask Hoshino and the students of Arius.
Manipulative Bastard: They're more than happy to manipulate the people of Kivotos to get what they want.
The Man Behind the Man: Whether manipulating the Kaiser Corporation in its conflict with Abydos or sending Arius to attack the Eden Treaty, Gematria often stays in the background until things really start to heat up.
Sliding Scale of Antagonist Vileness: Gematria's members, for as bad as they can be, tend to vary in levels of hostility toward Schale and Sensei, with Black Suit, Maestro, and Golconde & Decalcomania willingly speaking to Sensei about the raid bosses despite the actions of Black Suit and Maestro. In contrast, Beatrice just wants sensei dead so Kivotos loses hope for the future.
Underestimating Badassery: Falls victim to this in Volume F against the Chroma which they presumed up till then to be, as powerful as it is, just a mindless force. They learn quickly that not only It Can Think but it can also strategize by sending its representatives to quickly take out the most immediate threats, like an alternate version of Shiroko directly to Gematria to swiftly eliminate them and steal their knowledge or Phrenapates to kidnap Kivotos's Shiroko.

Affiliation: Gematria

Age: N/A

Birthday: N/A

Height: N/A

Hobbies: Researching the Nameless Priests' Technologies and Mysteries of Kivotos and Sensei

Illustrator: mx2j

Voiced by: Manabu Sakamaki (anime)

The first member of Gematria to be revealed. His interests are in the ancient and technologically advanced relic left by the Nameless Priests, and he watches over the AI Decagrammaton and its Prophets as it proves its godhood.

Affably Evil: He's very polite and courteous towards Sensei when they finally meet in person, even after he starts losing his patience as he tries and fails to understand why Sensei keeps on insisting on Hoshino's return despite it not being his problem whatsoever. When he finally realizes he can't sway Sensei into giving up, he relents and freely gives away Hoshino's location, allowing Sensei to leave without complaint.
An Offer You Can't Refuse: While an actual gun is never used as a threat during their meeting, Black Suit has a metaphorical gun to the Task Force's heads when making his offer to Hoshino: since Abydos owes their debt to the Kaiser Corporation and Black Suit is an associate of theirs, he can easily convince the Kaiser Director to simply inflate Abydos' debt over and over again until they drown in it and have no choice but to default on the loan, forcing Hoshino to sign herself away to save her school or watch it go under anyway.
Appropriated Appellation: Hoshino calls him "Black Suit" in part due to his enigmatic nature and his offers, and he "grows fond" of the epithet to let Sensei use it as his name.
Cut Lex Luthor a Check: He admits that his plots to recover the technology of the Nameless Priests are mostly so that he can sell it off the black market for huge profits.
Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Black Suit can't understand why Sensei handed over control of the Sanctum Tower to the General Student Council, as opposed to seizing it, and with it control of Kivotos and all of its Mystics, for themselves. He also refutes Sensei's assertion that an adult takes responsibility for others, calling them ignorant and insisting that being an adult is about being in charge of and controlling those others instead.
Black Suit: "Adults rule the aimless with authority, the ignorant with knowledge, and the weak with power. That is what it means to be an adult."
For Science!: He reacts with distaste when Hoshino assumes that she's going to be made to work for Kaiser PMC in exchange for Black Suit clearing away Abydos' debt, assuring her that he would never waste "the most promising Mystic in Kivotos" on such menial labor. He instead explains that he wants to understand how Hoshino and her Mystics work...by any means necessary.
Black Suit: "My objective is to study, analyze and understand Takanashi Hoshino. You, in other words, are our guinea pig."
Friendly Enemy: Toward Sensei. Black Suit genuinely respects (and even seems to like) him, is unfailingly polite toward him in their interactions, and ideally would very much like to not be his enemy.
Mad Scientist: Though he never gets the chance to do any proper experiments on her, it's Black Suit's self-proclaimed mission to study Hoshino and her Mystics, while his willingness to support Kaiser's efforts to annex Abydos and what he does to Hoshino once he finally gets his hands on her more than covers the 'Mad' part of this trope.
The Man Behind the Man: He's this for the Kaiser PMC Director, supporting his efforts to annex Abydos to eventually get his hands on Hoshino, in an effort to study her and her Mystics.
Person with the Clothing: Black Suit does, indeed, wear a black three-piece suit at all times.
The Rival: According to Beatrice, he considers himself this to Sensei, believing that the two of them will better each other through opposing one another even if Black Suit considers Sensei a comrade. This is why, in Volume F, he goes to Sensei to tell him how to reach the Ark, because he believes that he, if anyone, has a chance against the Chroma.
Suddenly Shouting: Devolves into this as he struggles to understand why Sensei won't just give up on getting Hoshino back.
We Can Rule Together: He makes an effort to try and recruit Sensei to his cause, insisting that neither he nor his faction wants to oppose Sensei. Though Sensei turns him down, Beatrice comments in Chapter 4 of the Trinity Arc that Black Suit still considers Sensei a comrade, believing that they can better each other.
Your Head A-Splode: Black Suit didn't get away from Anubis' attack unscathed, as during his subsequent encounter with Sensei, you can see that practically half of his head has been blown off, leaving an open wound that burns with white flame.

Maestro (Unmarked Spoilers)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maestro_6.png

^{Click to see Maestro in Volume F.}

Affiliation: Gematria

Age: N/A

Birthday: N/A

Height: N/A

Hobbies: Making Arts and Study of Immortality, Creating Mimesis

Illustrator: mx2j

Voiced by: N/A

The second member of Gematria to be revealed. He's specialized in mimesis, the ability to recreate and replicate beings of Mystery in Kivotos, having used said ability to move the Amuse Dolls of Slumpia and recreated the Communio Sanctorum.

Berserk Button: He really dislikes other people using his "works" without permission. When meeting with the other Gematria members in Chapter 4 of Volume 3, he gets pissed at Beatrice for using the Justina Saints as cannon fodder for her Arius forces, insisting that they were never meant to be used for war.
Body Horror: Chapter 2 of Volume F shows that he's taken quite a bit of damage from Anubis' assault, missing a chunk of one of his heads, being riddled with bullets, and losing his entire second head. The damage is bad enough that Black Suit needed to reanimate him by grafting a fresh puppet head onto the stump.
Creepy Doll: A two-headed wooden puppet wearing a nice suit. After the assault on Gematria, Black Suit was able to bring Maestro back to life by patching him up with another wooden puppet.
Commonality Connection: According to Beatrice, Maestro believes that he and Sensei have this, and the two of them will help expand one another's knowledge through conflicting ideas.
Evil Genius: He's set up as the guy with the most smarts when it comes to mystics, as he's the one who helped to hijack the Justina Saint army (or as he calls them, "The Guardians of the commandments") via his "mimesis" technique for Arius' use in Chapter 3 of Volume 3.
Tranquil Fury: He never raises his voice during the meeting in Chapter 4. Nevertheless, Maestro makes it very clear just how angry he is at Beatrice throwing his "works" into the fray as expendable meat shields.
Villainous Friendship: Seemed to have a bit of this with Golconde who Maestro notes he will miss when Black Suit informs him that Francis has returned.
We Can Rebuild Him: Anubis' assault on Gematria actually killed him from all the damage he took, though Black Suit brought him back by attaching another wooden puppet head to his form to replace the one he lost, which Maestro doesn't mind all that much.
Maestro: "Well, the flesh is disposable, after all. Whatever form I take is of little concern."

Golconde & Decalcomania (Unmarked Spoilers)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/decalcomania.png

^{Click to see Francis.}

Affiliation: Gematria

Age: N/A

Birthday: N/A

Height: N/A

Hobbies: Interpreting "Text" and "Signs"

Illustrator: mx2j

Voiced by: N/A

The third member of Gematria to be revealed. He's specialized in interpreting "text" and "signs", and watch over the Library of Lore with great interest.

Death of Personality: Golconde effectively suffers this at the hands of Anubis in Volume F, being replaced by Francis onward.
Knight of Cerebus: As Francis, Golconde appears before Sensei in Volume F and tries to assume this role, telling Sensei that the arrival of the Chroma on Kivotos will pave a way for the story to become Darker and Edgier and a happy ending won't be possible. Sensei of course rejects Francis outright and promises to defy Francis' prediction.
- Interestingly Maestro shares a bit of this opinion of Francis too, noting that in some ways he is even more dangerous than Beatrice.
Meta Guy: Where Black Suit styles himself a businessman and Maestro an artist, Golconde thinks in terms of writing. The man will often describe people and happenings in pure literary terms, giving him the odd role of a character who practically talks like a troper. And if some of Maestro's comments are any indications, he might be fully aware that he's a character in a fictional work.
Non-Indicative Name: Golconde, the portrait which resembles Rene Magritte's work Decalcomania, while Decalcomania, the man carrying the portrait, resembles the men depicted in Golconde.
Theme Naming: Both characters are themed after paintings made by René Magritte.
- After Anubis's assault on Gematria, Golconde is replaced with Francis, who is named after the British painted Francis Bacon, known for works with unsettling imagery. The portrait that was formely Golconde is changed into the face of a screaming man which resembles Francis's work Study after Velázquez's Portrait of Pope Innocent X
Plot Armor: Golconde believes that trying to fight directly against Sensei is pointless because he fully believes Sensei is protected by the current meta-narrative. Or in other words, actual metaphysical plot armor. Francis though believes that said plot armor will eventually run out, even after the crisis in Volume F.
Verbal Tic: Through Decalcomania, whose sole thing they say is a shout of "But of course!".

Beatrice (Unmarked Spoilers)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/beatrice_56.png

^{Click to see her Ascended form.}

Affiliation: Gematria

Age: N/A

Birthday: N/A

Height: N/A

Hobbies: Spreading Pain and Death, Instilling Hatred onto Students

Illustrator: N/A

Voiced by: N/A

The final member of Gematria to be revealed. She has taken over the Arius Autonomous District in the midst of its inner conflicts by exploiting the student's hate and indoctrinate them into being her tools.

Ascend To A Higher Planeof Existence: Her seeming end goal, with her explaining that, using the fragments of Atsuko's Halo combined with the "Mystery" in her royal blood after she's sacrificed in the planned ritual, she'll be able to become a "higher existence". It's later revealed that wanted to use the ritual to make contact with the Chroma, which is a truly godlike entity.
Arch-Enemy: Considers Sensei this by the end of Chapter 4 of the Trinity Arc, even referring to them as "my antagonist" when they meet in person in To The Most Holy Place, most likely because of Sensei's Hope Bringer status and willingness to support his students' dreams directly threaten Beatrice's methods of controlling hers, which involve crushing their dreams and breaking them into Blind Obedience.
Bad Boss: The fact that the majority of the Arius students are kept in line by fear of her, according to Saori, doesn't paint her in a very good light. It only gets worse with the reveal that she intends to sacrifice Atsuko in a special ritual, and uses the threat of that to force the Arius Squad into doing her bidding and attacking Trinity and Gehenna.
Berserk Button:
- Insulting her intelligence. When Maestro did so during their conversation early in Chapter 4, she interrupted him to snap right back:
  Maestro: "I am not asserting possession over them, you brute, I-"
  Beatrice: "Brute? How dare you call me that."
- She takes a very dim view of Sensei's Rousing Speech in Infinite Possibility, to convince Mika and Saori that there's still hope for a better future for them, interrupting them to denounce them as a liar and sic more Justina Saints on the group. Considering her own modus operandi as a Hope Crusher, this isn't surprising.
  Beatrice: "ENOUGH of your nonsense! How dare you utter such nonsense in my basilica."
  Beatrice: "I am no longer amused. The show shall end here."
- Related to the above, she snaps again in Kyrie For Courageous Girls when she hears the hymn Mika plays on an old set of organs and gramophones during her Hold the Line action, which Misaki identifies as a "Kyrie eleison" or "hymn of mercy". Since she rules through fear and despair, she doesn't want to hear ANYTHING that might lift a student's spirits and break her hold over them.
  Beatrice: " No, no, NO!!! I will NOT stand for this! How dare she play a song of mercy in MY territory!"
  Beatrice: "No, I cannot allow this!! Students must only sing curses of hatred... of contempt!"
  Beatrice: "Students must remain in a hell of mutual harm and contempt so that WE may exploit them!"
Big Bad: Is set up as this for Chapter 4 of Volume 3. With Mika's plans for Trinity foiled and the Arius Squad's assault on the Eden Treaty defeated, Beatrice seems set to move from Greater-Scope Villain to the central antagonist now that Sensei and the Arius Squad are taking the fight directly to Arius Branch.
Bring It: Once Sensei refutes her assessment of them, and declares that it's their duty as a teacher to simply be there for and support his students when they're in need, Beatrice erupts into a Slasher Smile and dares them to prove their resolve.
Beatrice: "Is that so? Then prove it to me here and now...!!!"
The Corrupter: The one responsible for verbally tearing down and indoctrinating the Arius Squad, and by extension all of Arius at present, into being what they are via her pessimistic and self-serving philosophy, and in turn helping to twist Mika from a once-idealistic girl into an angry, backstabbing traitor.
Dream Weaver: Implied to have some power over dreams, as she is able to perceive, interact with, and even imprison Seia when the latter dreams her way into the Arius Basilica in Chapter 4, mocking her for believing she was safe simply because she was in a dream.
Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: While she's a fair bit more pragmatic in her approach to dealing with Sensei than her colleague Black Suit, Beatrice still manages to fall into the same trap that he does, fundamentally misunderstanding the kind of person Sensei actually is and how they might not be swayed to her side by Beatrice's explanation of her endgame. It's telling that their rejection of her assessment of them leaves her utterly flabbergasted and angry, as if unable to understand how Sensei could be different from her.
Beatrice: "Surely, you understand the value in such an undertaking. You, who possess the absolute power to pass judgment on or offer salvation to all students...!!!"
Sensei: "No, you're wrong. You misunderstand me."
Beatrice: "What...?"
Sensei: "I'm no judge. I don't have the right to pass judgment on anyone. I'm no savior. I can't rid this world of suffering. I'm no absolute being. I can't rid this world of sin. I'm none of those things."
Beatrice: "If you are none of those things... then what in damnation are you!?!"
Evil Counterpart: Chapter 4 styles her as this to Sensei, with Beatrice having a leadership role and authority over many students just as Sensei does, with her even positioning herself as the only trustworthy adult they can turn to, just as many of the other schools' students turn to Sensei and SCHALE for support and reassurance. However, the key difference between them is that Sensei puts their students' dreams first, even being willing to risk themselves openly to help them succeed, while Beatrice has turned Arius' students into her own private army, cares very little for their safety or wellbeing and effectively indoctrinates them into discarding any dreams or views they may have in favor of her own philosophy ("All is Vanity") and serving her whims.
For Science!: Much like her colleague Black Suit, Beatrice is interested in knowing. Unlike him, she's interested in unraveling the secrets of Kivotos itself and the world it's part of, rather than focusing on the Mystics of students...and she believes that sacrificing Atsuko in a ritual will grant her the knowledge she seeks.
Greater-Scope Villain: Was this for the first 3 Chapters of Volume 3, being the leader of Arius supporting and directing their efforts against Trinity and Gehenna while staying out of the spotlight completely until Chapter 4 rolled around.
Hope Crusher: Beatrice's indoctrination routine for the Arius Students, as alluded to in Saori's flashback in Another Me, revolves around convincing them that they have no hope for a brighter, more pleasant future and all they can do is accept their miserable lot and serve her unquestioningly. She even mentions destroying all the organs and gramophones to stop any students from playing uplifting songs, ensuring they stay angry, vengeful, and miserable.
Humiliation Conga: Suffers this in Kyrie For Courageous Girls and Beloved. First, she severely misunderstands Sensei as a person, leading to an angry, flabbergasted rant as she tries to work out what they are; her One-Winged Angel form is beaten twice by the Arius Squad under Sensei's leadership; her guards fail to show up when she summons them thanks to Mika's Hold the Line action; and she needs to be bailed out by fellow Gematria member Golconde, who makes it very clear to her that she's not in fact The Hero, nor is Sensei her personal villain, outright calling her "an insignificant plot device".
I Will Punish Your Friend for Your Failure: Uses this threat to keep the Arius Squad doing her bidding, repeatedly threatening to sacrifice Atsuko in a dark ritual unless they do as she asks. Then she goes ahead and has Atsuko used for the ritual anyway.
Knight of Cerebus: While Volume 3 was already veering into a quite dark territory with Mika's coup attempt, the (attempted) assassination of Seia, and Azusa's willingness to become a murderer herself to stop Saori and protect her friends, Beatrice's introduction ramps things up even further. She's taken complete control of Arius Branch and rules the students through fear while indoctrinating them with her philosophy into an army willing to fight and kill for her, she's plotting a ritual using Human Sacrifice as fuel, abducts and tortures Seia when the latter spies on her via dreams and is the first Gematria member to explicitly order Sensei killed off to stop them interfering.
Knight Templar: Going off of Beatrice's dialogue when she's finally confronted face-to-face, she genuinely seems to see herself as The Hero trying to save Kivotos with her ritual with Sensei as the Designated Villain, even calling them "my antagonist". Unfortunately, she's a vicious, abusive torturer that's very out of place in the world of Blue Archive and is a Dark Messiah at best even if her goals of salvation are sincere, and winds up losing to Sensei and the Arius Squad.
More Deadly Than the Male: For all of their plans and strategies against the other schools and students, neither Black Suit nor Maestro has acted against Sensei directly, with Maestro barely interacting with them and Black Suit trying to recruit them, then giving in and forking over Hoshino's location without complaint when it's clear he can't sway Sensei. Beatrice, meanwhile, is insistent that Sensei needs to be killed to stop them from interfering with her plans. She's also the only known Gematria member to have a One-Winged Angel transformation that she uses to fight personally.
Ms. Fanservice: Compared to her compatriots, Beatrice is decidedly more conventionally attractive, lacking Maestro's two heads or Black Suit's mineral-Esque skin and instead wearing quite a revealing Sexy Backless Outfit accentuating her sprite's Boobs-and-Butt Pose. Even the multi-eyed headpiece that covers the top half of her head does little to detract from her looks.
Theme Naming: Named after Beatrice from The Divine Comedy. She refers to herself as a Visionary of Pilgrims, and during her first meeting with Sensei, she compares the Arius that has been taken over by her as a 'Paradise' exclusively for adults, where adults dominate, exploit and prey on children.
The Needs of the Many: Reveals this as part of her motivation in Agnus Dei, insisting that her 'ascension' is in fact necessary to save Kivotos, and arguing that one sacrificial lamb (that being Atsuko) is a small price to pay for the power and knowledge to save everyone else.
No-Nonsense Nemesis: Where Black Suit and Maestro either attempted to recruit or avoided Sensei when carrying out their plans, Beatrice fully recognizes the threat they can pose and plots to have them killed as soon as possible.
Beatrice: "Their interference would alter the meaning of all that I possess. They are dangerous."
Beatrice: "That's when I realized in order to bring my plan to fruition, I must eliminate Sensei before all else."
- Demonstrated nicely in Chapter 4 of the Trinity Arc, where Beatrice's immediate response to Sensei turning down her offer of a partnership is to sic Justina Saint Guardians on him and the Arius Squad, ordering them terminated at once.
Omnicidal Maniac: Having gone mad from her defeat at the hands of the Sensei, Beatrice deliberately reveals the location of Kivotos to the Chroma, which would result in not just the destruction of the Sensei and Schale, but the entire city and everybody in it.
The Promise: She made one to the Arius Squad that she wouldn't sacrifice Atsuko if they continue doing her dirty work. In truth, she never intended to follow through and tries to kill them after their purpose is done.
Too Dumb to Live: She boasts that she's in league with the Chroma to the rest of Gematria, despite knowing that Gematria are vehemently opposed to the Chroma and would have no qualms killing her to put a stop to her plans.
Tyrant Takes the Helm: Has already seized control of Arius Branch and its autonomous district by the time the story shifts to focus on them, and her rule is apparently bad enough that most of the students fear her. Near the end of Chapter 4, it's outright confirmed, both by the Arius Squad and Beatrice herself, that she keeps her students miserable and angry on purpose to allow her to exploit them better. Later, it's shown that she wants to expand her tyrannical control to all of existence.
Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: Beatrice is extremely off place for the setting of Blue Archive in-general. While most other villains are mitigated by either being somewhat comedic, have redeeming qualities or in Mika's case, too detached from reality, Beatrice is essentially Agatha Trunchbull waltzing into a more-or-less light-hearted waifu gacha game to wreck havoc with her horrific physical and psychological abuse. Even compared to her other Gematria brethren, she sticks out.
Villainous Breakdown: She doesn't take it well when her One-Winged Angel form is beaten, twice, by the Arius Squad, first in Agnus Dei and second in Beloved, her composure shattering as she's reduced to angrily screaming and then weakly moaning that everything was in place and there's no way she should have lost.
Villain: Exit, Stage Left: Fellow Gematria member Golconde arrives to collect Beatrice after she's beaten in Beloved, allowing her to escape to plot another day since the Arius Squad is busy tending to Atsuko and Sensei is a Non-Action Guy who can't actually stop him.
We Can Rule Together: During her encounter with Sensei in Chapter 4, Beatrice tries to entice them to allow the ritual to go ahead by pointing out all the secrets of the world they can uncover together. Sensei, being who they are, turns down the offer, adamantly refusing to accept anything that involves sacrificing a student.
Beatrice: "It is the duty of an adult to bring salvation to all. And that is accomplished by ascending to a higher existence. And that is exactly why I have prepared this ritual. By utilizing a power foreign to Kivotos, I shall ascend to a higher existence. And once I have climbed to such lofty heights, I shall bring salvation to this world. Such is the ultimate destination any adult must strive for!"
Wrong Genre Savvy: Lampshaded by Golconde when the rest of Gematria finish her off, as he chides Beatrice on her ambition.
Golconde: "Oh dear, oh dear. Our poor Madame has not read enough storybooks. Side characters who strive to become the protagonist never make it to the ending."
You Have Outlived Your Usefulness:
- She makes the Arius Squad do her dirty work so she won't sacrifice Atsuko, but later decides to do so anyway, even trying to kill them.
- On the receiving end of this by the rest of Gematria early through the Final Volume, after she reveals that on top of attempting to control the Chroma she has given the Chroma the location of Kivotos and quite possibly doomed them all, which leaves Beatrice a liability.

Underground Dweller (Unmarked Spoilers)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dweller_portrait.png

A former member of Gematria who was expelled and sealed away. He was brought back by Francis in order to rejoin Gematria.Just as the other members of Gematria have their unique world view, he sees the world like a tabletop RPG, with each world being a Rulebook, and his schemes against said world as the Campaign.

The Anti-Nihilist: The Dweller is fully aware that everything is going to end someday...which motivates him to cherish the experiences and insights he'll gain through his life instead of caring about such things as 'winning' and 'losing'.
Berserk Button: Francis trying to advise him on how to defeat Sensei gets the Underground Dweller angry enough to assault him and start yelling, as he does not like others 'interfering' in his campaigns.
Basement Dweller: "ANONYMOUS TRAVELLER, DON'T INTERFEEEEEERE!!! THIS IS MY CAMPAIGN!!"
Basement Dweller: "WHAT MATTERS IS THE INSIGHT I'VE ATTAINED THROUGH MY PENANCE!!"
Basement Dweller: "DON'T YOU DARE GET IN MY WAAAAAAAAY!!!"
We All Die Someday: His rationale for not really caring about winning, because everyone will die, and thus 'lose', eventually, so why not focus on the journey instead?
