Background / History
Pandora was originally the first Aeon born in the universe and the source of the Path of [Emotions]. She created life and bestowed the Path of [Emotions] upon it. The later births of Paths such as [Destruction], [Abundance], [Preservation], [Immortality], [Order], and [Harmony] were connected to her influence. 197 198
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse—Plague, War, Famine, and Death—betrayed Pandora in an attempt to divide her Path and ascend to Aeonhood. Plague deceived her, her Path collapsed, and the Four Horsemen and other Aeons killed her. Her remains and authority were divided, but her soul survived and eventually became housed within the Pandora Scythe Blade. 198
The scythe was later kept in the Kasantiya royal collection. It was regarded as a top-grade Divine Artifact blessed by an Aeon, and the First Emperor of Kasantiya was said to have used it to carve out the kingdom. The imperial family did not know that the scythe possessed a consciousness. 2 3
Pandora awakened to find Bai Sheng exhausted and suicidal after the deaths of his soldiers. She scolded him, struck him with the scythe’s handle, and adopted a protective role toward him. Bai Sheng became the first Spirit Puppet inheritor to recognize and cooperate with her, making him essential to her recovery. 2 9 100
After Bai Sheng joined the Stellaron Hunters, Pandora helped him gather souls for the scythe. She extracted Aatrox from a magic sword, overpowered him, and sealed him into one of her gemstones. 5 13 Later, she guided Bai Sheng through the use of the Seven Sins and assisted with the awakening of Beleria and Aatrox. 35 79 100
Pandora eventually disclosed her true identity to Bai Sheng. She acknowledged her desire to reclaim her lost authority, rebuild the Path of [Emotions], and take revenge on the Four Horsemen. 197 198 During the conflict with Plague, she repeatedly advised Bai Sheng and helped resist Plague’s attempts to capture and refine her residual soul. 209 270
Bai Sheng later restored Pandora with a large quantity of Path Energy. She awakened with her memories restored and confronted War, who possessed the true soul of one of Bai Sheng’s friends. Pandora killed War and recovered the soul. 420 421
Appearance
Pandora most often appears as a black-and-purple scythe with seven colored gemstones embedded in its blade. When manifesting a humanoid form, she appears as a tall woman in an ornate purple gown, sometimes with her face hidden behind a veil. Her Aeon form contains deep darkness beneath the gown and radiates overwhelming Path energy. 3 90 197 346
Distinguishing features include:

She is pragmatic and suspicious of other Aeons, especially those connected to her betrayal. Pandora is willing to negotiate when necessary, but she demands guarantees and reacts aggressively to perceived manipulation. Her caution is evident in her dealings with Aha and the Abundance. 239 469
Pandora also has a mischievous side. She assists Huohuo in schemes against Bai Sheng, teases him about his transformations, and sometimes withholds information to force him to think for himself. 243 449 513
Her recovered memories bring guilt and introspection. After regaining her full identity, she confronts the consequences of her past actions and her responsibility as the former Aeon of [Emotions]. 421
