Spoiler warning! This article contains major spoilers for the end of Twilight Mirage. Tread carefully! |
Delegates are synthetic people created from Divines. They were "carved away" like "slivers" from the whole of the Divine, and so they represent aspects of whatever Divine they were made from.
Many Delegates could be made from a single Divine, though it is not clear what was left. The Divine, Arbitrage describes them as "abominations" and a "failed experiment".[1]
Appearance
Delegates generally have humanoid, human-sized frames. They are compared to the robots in Binary Domain: visible joints, ceramic plates rather than metal, and slits/hatches in place of a mouth (see also: comic book Iron Man).[2]
History
Delegates were developed as the Crown of Glass and early Divine Principality worked out how to break Gumption apart to put it into other Divines.[2]
Delegates are enslaved by the Fabreal Duchy; they are the lowest on the social hierarchy, whose exploitation enables the function of the Duchy's infrastructure. August Righteousness secretly operated a Delegate resistance movement named Reunion, which is now in open rebellion and works with a group of Swordbreakers and Kalar Anakalar's Giantkillers as the military faction Jade Kill.
Known Delegates
- August Righteousness
- Bright Mercy
- Gentle Influence
- Cruel Emphasis
- Limited Dissent[1][note 1]
- Partial Palisade[3][note 2]
- Lucent Reflection[4]
Notes
- ↑ The originating Divines seem to have been deceased former members of the Divine Fleet, as most of them were mentioned at least once in Twilight Mirage.
- ↑ Resurrected in the corpse of an unnamed Delegate. His existence as a fractured part of a Divine evokes their existence, despite being created in a different social context.
