Arc 1Wien and Nel’s Ascent

Wien rose from a weak Ordinary Hollow into a cunning leader, built a band of followers, and pushed onward through Hueco Mundo after losing Inora and finding Nel. He tracked Nel through the Forest of Menos and finally reunited with her as she revealed her Cero Doble while battling Kaslanine and Niji.

  • Wien woke in Hueco Mundo as a humanoid Hollow, hunted weaker Hollows to grow stronger, and escaped the giant lord of the deadwood forest after it broke his claws and arm.
  • Wien established a trap-filled hunting territory, but Grimmjow ambushed him and forced him to rely on the forest’s traps to survive.
  • Lephas brought Wien to the forest’s core group, and Wien united its Hollows to defeat the newly evolved Gillian Mirot before leading the survivors toward the Forest of Menos.
  • Wien used traps and coordinated attacks to conquer a new forest, helping Falles and Feisilin'na advance before Inora lost his mind as a Gillian and Wien devoured him.
  • Wien traveled west alone, killed Kades, spared the Saiga Hollow Nel, and took her along as his subordinate and companion.
  • Wien and Nel hunted together until Yammy attacked them, and Nel healed Wien after he was badly injured while they fled.
  • Wien tracked a Gillian he hoped was Nel, fed it masks as its Spiritual Power neared its limit, and followed it into a gathering of Gillians summoned by Kaslanine and Niji.
  • Wien turned Kaslanine’s Gillians against him and helped Niji gain the advantage, while the Gillian Wien had been tracking revealed herself as Nel by returning Kaslanine’s Cero as Cero Doble.

Arc 2Wien’s Rise in the Central Forest

Wien evolved from Gillian to Adjuchas, joined forces with Nel and Jekain, and destabilized the Central Forest while expanding his territory. After killing Pairomon and absorbing his power, Wien prepared traps against the retaliation he expected.

  • Wien evolved into a Gillian, learned the laws of Hueco Mundo from the Forest of Menos, and heeded an Adjuchas’s summons to war.
  • Wien helped the Lord of the Forest North defeat the Southern Forest, then fled when the Sandworm Menos Grande tried to keep him as a strategist, and Nel rescued him from Riate and revealed her Adjuchas form.
  • Wien and Nel hunted in the Central Forest, defeated a territorial lord, and escaped the great lord’s attempt to recruit them, and Wien later emerged from a year-long dormancy as an Adjuchas with a Rift-Splitting Greatsword.
  • Wien reunited with Jekain, assassinated Yisrute, and used covert killings and alliances to fracture the Central Forest’s lords while building his own faction.
  • Wien targeted Pairomon’s territory, ambushed his forces, and advanced to the middle tier of Pseudo-Adjuchas before leading a guerrilla campaign against him.
  • Wien defeated Pairomon’s subordinates and, with Nel and Jekain’s support, killed Pairomon after agreeing to absorb his Spiritual Power.
  • Wien ordered Jekain to harvest Pairomon’s territory and trained while his forces faced losses and the threat of Snegatakk, and he then tested a spiked larva bomb whose blast proved weaker than expected.
