Description
Ilie, bearing the full name Iliaster signifying "the origin of life," is a unique human-Cagaster hybrid. Raised as a shepherdess by her adoptive father Griffith after escaping E-07 in infancy, her biological parents are researcher Franz Chilio and Tania, the Queen of the E-07 Insect Cage. Ilie's hybrid nature traces back to Tania, born human after her own mother transformed into a Cagaster during pregnancy.
Her appearance is petite with pale skin. Initial descriptions note teal blue/mint hair featuring a red streak on the left side and grayish blue-purple eyes, while alternative depictions mention silver hair and purple-gray eyes reminiscent of her father Franz.
Sheltered innocence blends with tomboyish resilience in her personality. Despite enduring trauma, including witnessing Griffith's death and separation from her biological family, she maintains a polite, good-natured demeanor that positively influences others.
Ilie's abilities emerge progressively. She first exhibits healing powers countering the Cagaster virus. Later, under threat, her touch unconsciously transforms a human into a Cagaster. This power evolves until she consciously commands Cagasters, leveraging her inherited "queen" potential.
Her journey begins when Kidow rescues her after Griffith's death, promising reunification with Tania. In Trade City E-05, she adapts to urban life under Mario, who acts as both employer and parental figure, befriending local orphans. Her complicated feelings for Kidow shift from dependency to romantic attachment.
Her past resurfaces when her bioengineered older brother Acht identifies her during an attack. Abducted to E-07 by Adham's military forces, she learns her origins and her mother's forced transformation into a weapon. Confronting this legacy, Ilie embraces her hybrid identity, proclaims herself the next queen to protect allies, and ends Tania's suffering by deactivating her life support.
Key relationships include her evolving bond with Kidow, moving from reluctant guardianship to mutual affection and partnership; her sibling-like connection with Acht, who sacrifices himself for her; and her mentorship under Mario.
Following these events, Ilie achieves closure regarding her parents, accepts her hybrid nature without succumbing to its destructive potential, and departs E-07 with Kidow to forge an independent future.
