Description
Piltz Dunant, better known by her hero alias Lady Black, is the hero representing Switzerland in the anime Shy. In her civilian life, she is a sixteen-year-old nursing student who also works as a nurse in the medical department of Black Cross, an international relief organization. Because of this role, she frequently travels across borders to provide medical care during missions around the world.
Piltz experienced a serious accident in her past in which she lost both legs, and she now relies on prosthetic legs. Rather than allowing her disability to define or limit her, she stands proudly as Switzerland's hero while working toward her goal of becoming a nurse. She is small in stature, with black hair and green eyes, and her birthday falls on September 6.
Her personality is stern, blunt, and highly competitive. She dislikes losing and has a sharp tongue, often criticizing others directly and without hesitation. In one word, she can be described as a tsundere, meaning her cold and harsh exterior hides a genuinely kind and caring heart. Beneath her prickly manner, she is warm-hearted and looks after those around her. She holds her duties in the highest regard and carries strong convictions as both a nurse and a hero, believing that a hero is someone whose mere presence brings a sense of relief to everyone. This belief gives her unwavering pride in the work she does.
Early in the story, Piltz is openly critical of the protagonist Teru Momijiyama, the hero known as Shy. She finds Teru's insecure personality irritating and states plainly that she does not believe Teru deserves a place in the hero team. Her harsh words are not born of malice but of sincerity and high standards; she insists that she means every word she says, and her bluntness is meant as a form of honesty rather than cruelty. Over the course of the story, she develops into a good friend and dependable ally to Teru, supporting her with medical aid during missions and joining the fight against enemy groups such as Amaralilk and Inori.
As a hero, Piltz wears a pair of bracelets that synchronize her Heart spirit into power, allowing her to transform into her hero form, Lady Black. The bracelets also enable her to understand foreign languages and communicate with people from other countries. Her most defining ability is healing, as she possesses innate healing powers that make her an invaluable support for her fellow heroes. Despite primarily being a medical specialist, she also demonstrates genuine bravery in combat, participating directly in battles while tending to wounded allies. Through this combination of healing, courage, and dedication to both her medical and heroic responsibilities, Piltz proves to be an all-rounder who contributes to the hero team in many important ways, and her growth from a blunt critic into a steadfast supporter reflects her deeply principled nature.
