OVA
Description
Ryuu Lyon, an elf from the Ryumilua Forest, belonged to a lineage guarding the sacred tree. Disillusioned by elven prejudice toward outsiders, she departed her homeland young and journeyed to Orario. Concealing her identity as "Gale," she joined the Astraea Familia. Extensive combat against the Evilus organization accelerated her leveling, reaching Level 4 in roughly seven years. Her familia faced near-total annihilation on the Dungeon’s 37th Floor when the Rudra Familia’s trap unleashed the Juggernaut; Ryuu and one comrade survived. Consumed by vengeance, she convinced goddess Astraea to leave Orario and dismantled the Rudra Familia and Evilus affiliates through assassinations and sabotage, becoming a fugitive. Severely wounded, she collapsed in an alley and was rescued by Syr Flover, who nursed her under Mia Grand’s supervision. Ryuu retired from adventuring for five years, working as a waitress at the Hostess of Fertility tavern. After the Great Faction War, she joined the Hestia Familia under the name Ryuu Astraea.
Ryuu has sky-blue eyes and fair skin. Her naturally golden-blonde hair was dyed green by Hostess colleagues but later reverted to its original color and length. As a waitress, she wore a green maid uniform with a white headband, apron, and brown boots over black leggings. Her adventurer attire includes a green flower-shaped hood, white sleeveless top, green shorts, brown gloves and boots, and a white sash carrying her weapons—typically a wooden sword and dual kodachi. She employs a green mask for anonymity when needed.
Initially stoic and reserved, Ryuu upholds a strict, justice-oriented demeanor shaped by her Astraea Familia past. She avoids physical contact per elven tradition but permits exceptions for trusted individuals, influenced by late comrade Alise’s counsel to value those who reach out. Though outwardly detached, she deeply cherishes friends and intervenes decisively when they are endangered. Her idealism about justice evolved into pragmatism post-familia tragedy, though she retains a strong moral core. Unlike many elves, she bears no animosity toward the Crozzo family for historical conflicts.
As a Level 6 adventurer, Ryuu’s physical prowess—strength, speed, agility, reflexes, durability, endurance, and stamina—surpasses lower-level adventurers. Her combat style prioritizes high-speed evasion and rapid strikes, augmented by skills like Mind Load (mana-imbued attacks for increased power) and Aero Mana (movement-speed-based attack boosts). She wields Alf’s Justitia, a magic-conductive wooden sword, and inherited Kaguya’s Kodachi Futaba for dual-wielding. Her elven heritage grants exceptional magic affinity; she casts Luminous Wind (offensive stardust orbs) and Noah Heal (restorative magic). After obtaining Astraea Record, she gained diverse spells, enabling roles like healing. Ryuu masters concurrent chanting, reciting spells while fighting or dodging. She also employs tachi techniques learned from Kaguya, self-assessing proficiency as moderate. Additional abilities include Fairy Serenade (night-enhanced magic), Abnormal Resistance, Magic Resistance, and Hunter (improved effectiveness against previously fought monsters).
Ryuu met Bell Cranel through Syr, aiding him incognito during the Apollo Familia War Game. Their bond solidified when stranded together in the Dungeon’s lower floors after a Juggernaut attack. During four days of survival, they shared vulnerabilities: Ryuu revealed past trauma, and physical closeness occurred while huddling for warmth. She later prioritized Bell’s safety over vengeance, and he testified for her during false murder accusations. Ryuu developed romantic feelings, but their relationship remains unresolved due to external events, including Syr’s identity as Freya.
Ryuu is the reincarnation of poet Ryuulu. She once carried an 80 million valis bounty. Her birthday is in March, aligned with the Episode Ryuu spin-off release timing. Her magic Astrea Record was named after a game anniversary event, while her skill Astrae Varmas references goddess Astraea and comrade Adi Varma.
