Background / History

Creation of the King of Purgatory

Naiser’s ranking profile credits his success to exceptional skill and closed-beta experience. His unusual character-development route began with a succubus avatar: during a war between the Abyss and the Celestial Realm, he seduced an angel, conceived a child, and arranged to return as that child through the resurrection system. The resulting Nephalem looked human but possessed powerful attributes and racial talents from both bloodlines 293.

He developed this character through the constant warfare of Abyssal Hell. After killing the previous King of Purgatory, he brought the Purgatory Legion under his control through bloodshed and force. Its tournament listing identified the City of Sin as its main city, recorded a population of 473,127, and rated the faction “invincible” 293 300.

His published battle record included the following victories 293:

Demon King Tournament

Naiser’s promotional video placed second in popularity, featuring him cutting through a demon army without speaking. In the Evil Forces Competition, he left his army guarding its base and attacked the Blade’s Edge Force alone. After slaughtering the undead along Boneyard Ridge, he defeated the ogre bosses King Molagu and Kara and killed their leader, the seven-skull gronn Typhon the Defiler 300 308 309.

A mysterious black-robed figure subsequently offered him power and an alliance. Naiser rejected the suggestion that he needed help against Azathoth and attacked the stranger. He also initially refused a public proposal to arrange the tournament’s outcome, although Liu Wei later learned that he had agreed to an arrangement 311 334 335.

In the final against Xiao Yu’s Azathoth, Naiser built up Nephalem Valor by killing his own troops and neutral monsters. Xiao Yu countered by dispersing his army and fighting largely alone, denying Naiser an easy supply of further kills. Their duel involved a temporary agreement inside a black hole, deceptive doubles, and repeated attempts to outmaneuver one another 350 354 355.

Naiser nearly finished Xiao Yu by immobilizing him and targeting his elemental core. Ragnaros intervened, dragging Naiser into a miniature sun while Xiao Yu attacked from outside. With his Valor exhausted and stamina depleted, Naiser failed to escape; Ragnaros’s self-destruction triggered the explosion that killed him and secured Xiao Yu’s victory 356.

Afterward, Naiser shook Xiao Yu’s hand and acknowledged that he had been stronger. He retreated to Purgatory Royal City, where the black-robed figure approached him again and Naiser agreed to hear his proposal. Naiser later received a finalist award; many spectators still considered his individual strength comparable to Azathoth’s because Ragnaros had helped decide their match 357 360.

Council of Sages

Naiser later cooperated with Xiao Yu during the expedition beneath Ulduar. When Xiao Yu stretched out one of Yogg-Saron’s tentacles in Chaos Dragon form, Naiser severed it so Merlin could preserve a sample. Kairoz then used the Eye of Time to move the group to a timeline in which their intrusion had not occurred 381.

After Xiao Yu terminated his contracts with Sky Group, Naiser approached him outside the company, praised his defiance, and drove him away to meet someone. Shen Yuan subsequently introduced Naiser as the Council of Sages’ ninth member, granting him the title Demon Sage despite the council’s usual restriction to spellcasters. Naiser requested “Holy Demon Sage” instead, arguing that his title should acknowledge his angelic half 402 408.

His council activities included reporting the Alliance and Horde’s plans against the Elemental Throne and receiving an assignment to obtain Y’Shaarj’s blood. He later helped Medivh construct a permanent Abyssal Gate for an assault on the Caverns of Time. Leading fifty thousand demons, he cut down a bronze dragon warlord and ordered the Purgatory Legion into the caverns while Xiao Yu and Kairoz sabotaged the defenders from within 408 423 425.

Rebellion and the Scepter of All Gods

Naiser joined Shen Yuan’s rebellion against Li Mingfei, the God of Holy Light. During the subsequent Pantheon fighting, he deliberately accumulated several thousand stacks of Nephalem Valor in preparation for claiming the Scepter of All Gods 439 447.

At his peak, he badly damaged Frostmourne, drove back Arthas and Illidan, killed three and wounded four members of a seven-hero Alliance–Horde group with one strike, and wounded Deathwing. Nevertheless, the scepter he seized was a substituted Kirin Tor Elder’s Scepter. Xiao Yu held the real artifact and used it to become the God of Elements 447.

Naiser attacked Xiao Yu but was driven back by divine elemental spells. The other combatants refused his demand for assistance after he had announced his intention to make them his subjects. They instead supported Xiao Yu with ranged attacks, and Xiao Yu cast a vastly strengthened black hole at him 448.

Imprisonment and *Great Hero of Humanity*

Following the rebellion, Naiser was imprisoned. His family distanced itself from him after his involvement in the case and gambling losses of hundreds of millions, accompanied by substantial debt. He accepted an apparent opportunity to clear his record by recovering alien technology from dangerous ruins 455.

Believing the expedition’s deaths were real, Naiser led a twelve-person team and sought the Phantom Spirit Race’s mental cultivation methods. He hoped to obtain powers in reality and avenge his defeats by Xiao Yu. By the expedition’s end, only Naiser, Gao Daquan, and Li Li remained 459 507.

Naiser shot both companions, took their data cases, and escaped with seventeen technologies, including an antigravity engine. On returning, he discovered that the expedition had been staged for the reality show Great Hero of Humanity, and that audiences would judge his conduct rather than simply reward his successful recovery of the data 508.

He defended his actions in a speech arguing that humanity needed a ruthless victor rather than a self-sacrificing hero. The speech brought his popularity close to Gao Daquan’s, but Li Li’s final vote gave Gao the victory. Naiser returned to prison with his life sentence unchanged and no prospect of a sentence reduction 509 510.

Earl of Monte Cristo and Forrest

An elderly visitor offered Naiser a way to serve his sentence outside prison as a company’s technical adviser, provided he played another game. Naiser later appeared as the Earl of Monte Cristo, an identity Ner’zhul recognized. When Xiao Yu investigated, he found Naiser apparently still imprisoned and reading The Count of Monte Cristo. Naiser used their conversation to suggest that Xiao Yu, rather than himself, might be the one truly confined 510 525 526.

Old Li subsequently reported that Naiser and Shen Yuan had escaped with powerful backing. Later, while serving Forrest, Naiser helped Xiao Yu disrupt Forrest’s attempt to absorb Azathoth. He froze his own men with Time and Space Stop and threw Xiao Yu into Azathoth, enabling its awakening 539 544.

Naiser presented this betrayal as a sacrifice for humanity, but privately suspected that he was again participating in a reality show and needed to perform heroically. Forrest had him beaten, healed, and imprisoned for future punishment. Shen Yuan later visited and gave him access to Earth Online 545 546 550 551.

Entry into *Earth Online*

Using Shen Yuan’s dedicated gaming helmet, Naiser entered the original Earth Online and explored its simulated twenty-first-century streets. Kairoz collected him and brought him to a rooftop gathering with Shen Yuan, Alodi, Ner’zhul, Lilith, and Merlin. Still worried about his imprisoned physical body, Naiser watched as rifts opened above all 108 major cities and the Overlord’s forces invaded 551.

Appearance

• Humanlike Nephalem form: Less than two meters tall, with long black hair, a stern face, and striking, alluring eyes 293 300 308 346.
• Clothing: Close-fitting black demon dragon leather armor and a black cloak, without a helmet; later also described wearing a signature demonic dragonhide trench coat 300 379.
• Weapon silhouette: Carries an enormous broken greatsword and can wield the two-handed weapon with one hand 300 346.
• Light and Shadow Twins: His demonic half has scales, curved horns, and bat wings; his angelic half has white wings, a halo, and white armor 354.

Personality

Naiser is proud, competitive, and openly theatrical. He challenges groups to attack him together, proclaims himself destined to defeat Xiao Yu, and boasts of ruling others once he obtains divine power. His confidence does not entirely prevent him from recognizing a legitimate defeat: after the tournament final, he acknowledges Xiao Yu’s superiority 308 333 357 447.

His persistence becomes increasingly tied to revenge. During the alien expedition, hatred of Xiao Yu sustains him through repeated brushes with death. He ultimately shoots companions he believes will truly die, prioritizing his return and revenge over loyalty. Although privately uneasy during his televised defense, he presents an uncompromising argument that victory matters more than the means used to obtain it 459 507 508 509.

Repeated deception also makes him suspicious of apparent opportunities. His later righteous behavior under Forrest is not confirmed moral reform: he continues the performance because he hopes he is on another reality show. Shen Yuan identifies his central weakness as an excessive fixation on winning, causing him to discard things that later determine his defeat 510 546 550.

Abilities & Skills

Nephalem Valor

• Grants 1% to all stats per stack, with no stated stacking limit 350.
• Gained by killing monsters; stronger victims award more stacks. His own troops can serve as sources 350.
• Makes mass attacks and summoned creatures dangerous liabilities for opponents, since their deaths can strengthen him 309 350 353.
• Is temporary: accumulated strength fades after battle, and his tournament stacks eventually wear off 311 356.

Nephalem Wrath

• Can trigger when a powerful Nephalem suffers a major blow 353.
• Grants a 2% damage bonus for each 1% of health lost, with negative statuses providing an additional attack bonus 353.
• Allows severe injuries to increase his offensive threat rather than simply weaken him 353.

Swordsmanship and Physical Combat

• Combines immense strength with exceptional speed and mobility; his Nephalem template supports both warrior-style attacks and agility-based techniques 351 352.
• Cleave: Deals a full-power frontal slash with knockback; can trigger the Dark Ripper’s Dimensional Rend 351.
• Infinite Chain Slash: Chains attacks as long as each strike destroys its target. Naiser uses it to strike thousands of incoming fragments almost instantaneously 351 352.
• Shockwave: Uses a super-armor effect to break free from Ragnaros’s grip 356.

Demonic Fire and Holy Light

• Purgatory Fire: Releases demonic flames absorbed through slaughter, melting ice barriers in his path 351.
• Hellfire: Bakes a restraining mud sphere into a solid shell that he can shatter 352.
• Wings of light: Enable aerial charges and pursuit 351.
• Holy Light Barrier: Provides sustained protection without reducing his damage. It lasts while supplied with holy light, but is not absolute invulnerability 352.
• Because he forces holy light to obey rather than believing in it, he cannot use Divine Shield. His holy-light reserves are limited by his long residence in purgatory 352.

Light and Shadow Twins

• Separates into distinct angelic and demonic bodies, each wielding a copy of the Dark Ripper 354.
• Enables coordinated attacks from different directions 354.
• Has a limited duration, after which the bodies merge 355.

Spatial Control and Deception

• Spatial Confinement: Immobilizes an opponent; used to prepare a strike against Xiao Yu’s elemental core 354 356.
• Telekinetic manipulation: Pulls an Ancient Creation into the path of an incoming attack, using it as a shield before killing it 353.
• Real Phantom: Leaves a convincing double in front of Xiao Yu while the real Naiser attacks from behind 355.
• Boundless Darkness: Activates an orb that fills the area with shadow energy, concealing even bright elemental light. Ordinary wind cannot disperse it 353.

Later Spellcasting

These spells are demonstrated during his later service under Forrest, separately from his tournament-era Nephalem techniques.

• Time and Space Stop — ninth tier: Freezes the men surrounding him 544.
• Vector Throw — fifth tier: Launches Xiao Yu into Azathoth 544.

Limitations and Counters

• Resistance is not immunity: Ordinary debuffs initially fail against him, but Xiao Yu’s later elemental attacks inflict freezing, petrification, burning, and paralysis 351 354.
• Strength cannot solve every restraint: Cutting apart gravity-drawn rubble only creates smaller fragments that return to him; he must change tactics and dispel the effect 352.
• Ranged attrition: Xiao Yu’s Raven of Chaos form and autonomous Elemental Stars let him evade pursuit while steadily reducing Naiser’s health without supplying killable summons 353.
• Finite endurance: Lost Valor stacks, depleted stamina, and prolonged environmental damage leave him vulnerable despite his exceptional melee power 356.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Dark Ripper: Sargeras’s former weapon, described as a non-artifact whose weapon power exceeds ordinary artifacts. Its Dimensional Rend can cut through armor, scales, protective magic, and substantial barriers. It also emits purgatory flames and can split an incoming fire ray 293 311 351 356.
• Black demon dragon leather equipment: His characteristic armor and later dragonhide trench coat 300 379.
• Darkness orb: The inventory item used to release Boundless Darkness 353.

• The Count of Monte Cristo: Reads it in prison while operating under the corresponding Earl of Monte Cristo identity 525 526.
• Dedicated gaming helmet: Shen Yuan’s gift, used to enter the original Earth Online 550 551.

Relationships

• Xiao Yu / Azathoth — Rival, occasional collaborator, and eventual object of revenge. Their tournament duel drives Xiao Yu to develop counters to Naiser’s racial talents 309 354 459.
• Shen Yuan — Council leader and later source of assistance. Criticizes Naiser’s obsession with victory and provides his route into Earth Online 408 550 551.
• Mysterious black-robed figure — Offers power and an alliance before the tournament final; returns after Naiser’s defeat 311 357.
• Ragnaros — Decisive tournament opponent whose intervention prevents Naiser from finishing Xiao Yu 356.
• Ner’zhul — Fellow sage who identifies him beneath the Earl of Monte Cristo persona 525.
• Kairoz — Fellow sage and operational ally; later escorts him to the council’s gathering in Earth Online 425 551.
• Li Li — Expedition companion and lover who saves him twice. He shoots her during the staged mission; her final vote subsequently defeats his bid to become Great Hero of Humanity 508 510.
• Gao Daquan — Expedition teammate and ideological opponent who defeats him in the reality show’s final vote 508 509 510.
• Forrest — Later employer whom Naiser betrays. Orders his torture and continued captivity, intending to punish him further after attaining godhood 544 546.
