Background / History

Shari was created by Ryan as a female killer-type AI character. Her initial appearance was set with black hair, black eyes, and a height of 1.7 meters; her starting attributes were exceptionally high, particularly her 12 Magic score and 10 Charm. Her spawn point was Berman City in the Augustus Empire. 23

Her generated history identifies her as a gladiator: war destroyed her hometown, a slave merchant sold her to an arena, and she survived repeated gladiatorial battles through her physique and reflexes before being taken away by unknown people. 23

She entered the Karut Maze beneath Cassola Prison and progressed from a classless fighter into the Blood God's Chosen. The Blood Cult intended to use her as a sacrifice, but she killed Hart at the ritual's climax, survived the blood sacrifice, and became a Blood Knight. 52 53

Appearance

Shari is a tall, black-haired, black-eyed woman whose usual battlefield presence is defined by a blood-red greatsword and blood-themed power. Following Ascension, her appearance gained distinctly demonic traits. 23 245

• Black hair and black eyes; 1.7 meters tall. 23
• Often appears in red formal attire or fitted black combat clothes. 115 287
• Wields the nearly person-tall Sword of Ares. 64
• Her Ascension form manifests demonic horns, crimson wings, and blood-red energy at her feet. 245
• Her later Holy Blood Angel form retains the Ares Greatsword and features large blood-red wings. 287

Personality

Shari is direct, energetic, and highly violent toward enemies. As leader of the Earthfire Gang, her “enthusiasm” is associated with crushing opposition rather than diplomacy. 60

In combat, she is decisive but not recklessly greedy. During an engagement with stronger Kainter Transcendents, she used a powerful sacrifice technique to kill a Second Tier opponent, then withdrew rather than risk a prolonged fight with a Third Tier enemy. 83

She is intensely loyal and affectionate toward Ryan. During his staged public death, she embraced him before stabbing him and declared that he belonged to her alone. 133

Abilities & Skills

Blood Knight Physiology

As a Blood Knight and Blood God's Chosen, Shari possesses unusually high attributes, durability, and sustained combat ability.

• Her Level 13 attributes already exceeded those of ordinary practitioners in the same profession. 53
• She gains experience from killing ordinary people, making large-scale warfare especially effective for her growth. 57
• Her battlefield-focused class excels through high health, defense, life-steal, and area damage. 120
• Her principal weaknesses are limited crowd control and pursuit options; Blood Knights are less suited to chasing agile or stealth-oriented opponents. 120

Blood Control

Blood Control is Shari's exclusive God's Chosen gift. It enhances her through control of her own blood and damages enemies through control of theirs. 53

• Forms blood threads capable of cutting down ordinary opponents with ease. 78
• Can create blood hands to seize and crush targets. 214
• Can release high-tier sacrifice attacks such as Sacrifice Blood Pattern Break. 83
• Its sustained use depends on available mana; Shari can heal through blood, but cannot quickly restore expended magic power. 53

Bloodthirst and Blood Servants

Bloodthirst draws power from blood to restore Shari's injuries, while Blood Servant temporarily animates those she kills as combat summons. 53

• Bloodthirst allows her to remain in prolonged melee despite severe injuries. 53
• Blood Servants can repeatedly screen her from enemy advances and overwhelm targets through numbers. 66
• The servants are vulnerable to concentrated attacks and can be rapidly depleted in defensive engagements. 72

Blood God's Blessing and Ritual Absorption

Shari can draw upon Blood God rituals intended for other sacrifices.

• During Birdman's ritual, she absorbed the descending Blood God's Power instead of being harmed by it. 73
• The resulting Blood God's Blessing doubled her attributes and damage. 73
• She later gained Blood God's Blessing as part of her Second Tier advancement. 66
• Her status as a God's Chosen protects her from the Blood Contract's debuff, though the contract affects those bound by it. 116

Sword of Ares

The Sword of Ares is Shari's class-bound, upgradable legendary greatsword and exclusive weapon as a God's Chosen. 53 83

• Its Tier 2 form grants +10 Constitution, +10 Magic, and +20% attack damage. 83
• Its Blood Sacrifice ability consumes Shari's health to activate increasingly powerful attacks, culminating in Blood Dragon Slash. 83
• The Ninth Blood Dragon Slash drains 90% of her health and is dangerous without the Ring of Death's invincibility effect. 71
• The sword's Blood Sacrifice reached its second stage, Blood Return, restoring Shari's health after kills. 66

Battlefield Skills

Shari has developed multiple large-scale warfare abilities beyond her original profession.

• War Domain — increases allied damage by 0.01% per enemy killed, raises allied morale, and mentally suppresses enemies; it functions only on a battlefield. 85
• Trample — shatters the ground to inflict area damage and stun nearby enemies. 86
• Blood Frenzy — restores injuries through blood while increasing damage by 10%; the effect extends to allies affected by her power. 147
• Blood Armor — gained alongside Blood Frenzy at Fourth Tier. 147
• Shari seized and refined the Flag of Victory through sacrifice, merging its war fog with her blood mist to destabilize the Moonlight Knight Order. 214

Ascension and Faith

Doklodus granted Shari an Ascension trial after she attracted Chaos Power through sacrificial faith and warfare. 234

• Completing the trial against Barton's shadow unlocked her demonic form. 245
• After Barton's death, she inherited the Blood Hand Butcher title's Power of Faith and could establish additional epithets without losing its existing faith collection. 287
• Ryan named her new epithet Holy Blood Angel. 287
• Her Holy Blood Angel name later spread through the Southern Continent and began gathering substantial faith, including from the Kingdom of Oen. 328

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Sword of Ares — Class-bound, upgradable blood-red greatsword and Shari's primary weapon. 53 83
• Ring of Death — Grants twenty seconds of damage immunity; crucial for safely using the Ninth Blood Dragon Slash. 71
• Blade of Erosion — Temporarily transferred from Lin Qi for Shari's early exploration of the Karut Maze. 34
• Kasa's Bracelet — Equipped during the Kainter campaign. 86
• Thorn Armor — Equipped during the Kainter campaign. 86
• Flag of Victory — War-path relic forcibly refined through sacrifice during the battle against the Moonlight Knight Order. 214

Relationships

• Ryan — Creator, controller, commander, and fiancé. Shari openly vows to follow him for life and displays possessive affection toward him. 115 133
• Cassidy — Princess and political patron. Cassidy repeatedly supports Shari's command decisions and considers her indispensable to the war effort. 71 86
• Lin Qi — Allied character who arrived with Janus followers to help Shari and the surviving captives escape the Blood Cult. 53
• Magana — Powerful ally and battlefield rival. Their poor coordination against Barton's projection nearly caused them to hinder one another. 244
• Mortis — Assassin partner who coordinated ambushes with Shari during the elimination of Adechis's councilors. 199
• Earthfire Gang — Shari seized control of its predecessor gangs and consolidated them into the Earthfire Gang. 59 60
• Holy Blood Army — Her personal military force, strengthened by her War Domain and Blood Frenzy in major campaigns. 147 168

Her military achievements earned her a leap from commoner to Imperial Viscount, with Kosotoya granted to her as a territory to guard. 99

She defeated Barton's shadow with a Holy Seal, completed Ascension, and gained a demonic form. 245

Barton’s later death transferred his gathered faith to Shari, elevating her to Sixth Tier and establishing her Holy Blood Angel title. 287
