Background / History

Awakening at Herta Space Station

Stelle appears as the intended Stellaron vessel while Kafka and Silver Wolf are under Lin Chen’s control. Recognizing her potential to influence the world’s future, Lin Chen forces Kafka to use her Whispering Spell to establish him as Stelle’s trustworthy older brother. Their sibling relationship is fabricated rather than established biological kinship 126.

On briefly awakening, Stelle immediately recognizes Lin Chen as “big brother,” then falls asleep again. Kafka attributes this to the side effects of her memory reset and describes herself as Stelle’s mother “in a sense.” Before leaving, she receives Lin Chen’s promise that he will care for Stelle as his own little sister 127 135.

Stelle subsequently wakes with no recollection of her past. Initially wary of Lin Chen’s companions, she accepts his reassurance and soon bonds with March 7th over their shared amnesia and interest in searching trash cans. Her first documented find is an Interastral Peace Corporation currency storage card 137 138.

Joining the Astral Express

Stelle fights alongside March 7th and Himeko against a Doomsday Beast, intending to protect Lin Chen. Seeing him finish the wounded beast with one punch leaves her briefly discouraged, but she decides that relying on him occasionally is acceptable 145 146 148.

When offered a choice between remaining at Herta Space Station and traveling aboard the Astral Express, Stelle chooses to follow Lin Chen. Himeko welcomes her as a Nameless, believing that future journeys might offer a way to remove the Stellaron 155.

After the next Doomsday Beast attack, Stelle loses consciousness under an external blessing. Lin Chen carries her aboard the Express, where March 7th looks after her. Following her recovery, she receives a limited-edition phone from Lin Chen and a room arranged by Himeko 160 169 170.

Herta’s Simulated Universe

Herta recruits Stelle as a uniquely useful test subject: she calculates that the simulated Aeons will mistake the Stellaron vessel for Akivili, allowing her to observe their responses. After several failed attempts, Stelle asks Lin Chen to help her in Herta’s office 170 171 173.

Lin Chen joins without participating in combat, giving Stelle an opportunity to protect him herself. Fighting under the name Caelus, she defeats a group of Voidrangers despite suffering minor wounds. The encounter is followed by Qlipoth’s appearance and a succession of simulated Preservation blessings; successful completion of the run is not documented in the supplied chapters 172 174 175 176.

Appearance

• Build: Tall and slender, with a striking, heroic bearing; described as slightly taller than Himeko 126 174.
• Hair and eyes: Long pale gray or silver-gray hair and amber eyes 126 127.
• Facial features: An angular face, high nose bridge, and thin pink lips 126.
• Clothing: A fitted white shirt, mechanical-style punk jacket, and short black leather skirt 126.
• Characteristic pose: Carries her baseball bat resting on her shoulder after battle 146.

Personality

Stelle is initially innocent, reserved, and strongly dependent on Lin Chen. Although her memory reset leaves most everyday vocabulary and common sense intact, she has conspicuous gaps in understanding—particularly concerning romance and March 7th’s proposed “sister-in-law” title 138 141 169.

Her desire to protect her brother brings out a determined, reckless side. She describes gaining strength by thinking about someone or something worth protecting, and throws herself into combat when she finally has the chance to defend him in the Simulated Universe. Outside such moments, she is comfortable leaving overwhelming threats to Lin Chen and concentrating on quieter pleasures such as finding trash-can treasure 146 157 174.

She becomes more playful online, insisting that Lin Chen address her as Caelus even while they are sitting together. She extends that persona to the Simulated Universe because a virtual world calls for different “character settings.” With Lin Chen beside her, her initial nervousness around Qlipoth gives way to confident requests for additional blessings 170 174 175 176.

Baseball Bat Combat

Stellaron Vessel

• Carries a Stellaron that Himeko cannot currently remove completely 155.
• Serves as Herta’s proposed stand-in for Akivili during simulated encounters with Aeons 171.

• Can select blessing cards during the Simulated Universe run, including gold-rarity choices 175 176.

Trash-Can Treasure Hunting

• IPC universal currency storage card — recovered from a trash can and immediately pocketed; its balance is not stated 137.

Relationships

• Lin Chen — Believes him to be her older brother because of Kafka’s implanted instructions. Regards him as her only family and wants to protect him; his initially reward-driven attachment gradually becomes more genuinely familial 126 148 170.
• Kafka — Calls herself Stelle’s mother “in a sense.” Performs her memory reset and Whispering Spell conditioning, worries about her opinion, and asks Lin Chen to keep her safe 127 135.
• March 7th — Close friend and fellow amnesiac with a shared enthusiasm for trash cans. Cares for Stelle during her recovery and tries, with limited success, to explain her relationship with Lin Chen 138 160 169.
• Himeko — Welcomes her into the Nameless and arranges her room aboard the Express. Recognizes the Stellaron inside her and hopes the Trailblaze will provide a solution 155 170.
• Herta — Simulated Universe researcher who uses Stelle to attract simulated Aeons and gather information. Approves of her more determined combat performance 171 174.
• Nanook — The Aeon of Destruction whose attention accompanies Stelle’s unexplained collapse. Stelle is troubled that she drew their gaze while merely watching Lin Chen fight 160 169.
• Qlipoth — Encountered within the Simulated Universe; grants her repeated Preservation blessings after her greeting and Lin Chen’s requests 175 176.
