Levia Barisol

Levia was one of the four gods in the Evillious universe. After opposing the sun god's decision for their third paradise, she was transformed into a twin-headed dragon along with Behemo. Merged with her hated twin brother, Levia wreaked havoc on the Third Period before being sealed inside Sin. Once they escaped from the ark centuries later, Levia and her twin incarnated in the corpse of Elluka Chirclatia.

Early Life
Since time immemorial, Levia along with the rest of her kin enjoyed paradise in their world; at some point, the god and her twin brother Behemo became on bad terms with each other. When their world suddenly collapsed, the gods boarded the ark Sin and traversed the black sea until finding a new place. There, they created the Second Period and prospered in the new paradise for a thousand years. When the Second Period faced destruction, the gods dubbed the cause "Malice". As HERs contaminated the world, the twin gods and 70 of their kin boarded Sin and successfully escaped the world's destruction.

Later later sailed to another new place. With the sun god heading the creation of the Third Period, other gods and kin were tasked with helping create the individual aspects of the third paradise, Levia and her brother focusing their efforts on creating the minds and bodies of the world's humans. While working, Levia created the minds for humanity. During the process, 62 of their kin died and the earth god had them reincarnate as forest spirits on the ground world.

The surviving four gods and six kin then completed their creation by BT 528. When the sun god shared his plans to leave their new paradise in the hands of the humans they created, Levia and her brother opposed the decision along with six of the other kin. After quarreling with the sun god over his decision, the creator god transformed the twin gods into a twin-headed dragon, tasking "Levia-Behemo" as the "temporary gods" for the humans of the new world. Merged with her hated sibling and banished from their godhood into an ugly dragon form, the wrathful twin gods broke the sun god's rules and attempted to destroy the Third Period along with the six kin. The sun god then sealed Levia-Behemo and the kin in Sin and buried the ark in the world's north.

False Gods
"Hey darling, you hear this voice? Hey darling, if you can hear this voice, throw my corpse into the ark in the temple to resurrect me."

- Levia impersonating "Elluka Chirclatia" to Kiril Clockworker

Afterwards, the twin gods waited in their prison until the ark was excavated by the nation of Levianta. Whispering to what few humans could hear them, Levia and Behemo shared their origins and history with these prophets and became worshiped in the new Levin faith, a temple being built around the "forbidden" ark. Around BT 005, the twin gods concocted a plan to have the Leviantans incarnate them as humans so they could escape their prison.

They then began whispering to Queen Maria Moonlit that they would destroy the Magic Kingdom Levianta if their worshippers didn't cleanse the ark Sin by incarnating them into human vessels. Once Prophet Marry-Go-Round shared the twin gods' lies with the nation and started Project 'Ma' to create suitable twin vessels for them to inhabit, the twin gods waited for the project's success.

As Project 'Ma' faced continual failure over the years, Levia-Behemo grew impatient. After Kiril Clockworker witnessed his sister Irina murder his fiancee Elluka Chirclatia in EC 013, the twin gods decided to entice the man to free them from Sin, unwilling to wait for their eventual incarnation receptacles to grow up any longer. Impersonating Elluka, Levia cried out to Kiril, asking if her "darling" could hear her.

The god then told him to throw "her" corpse in the temple's ark to resurrect the mage. Insisting the kingdom had become rotten due to everyone being blinded by their desires, she coaxed that everything needed to be reset by both of them, The god then qulaified that it couldn't be done alone and that they certaintly could overcome the obstacles together. Adding that the whereabouts of the miracle were now in his hands, Levia led the distressed Kiril to Sin.

Once he entered the temple and approached the ark's location, the god related that the forbidden devie was just ahead and that no one would discover him if he did it now. After hurrying the man to it, she stated it would start there and told him to not hestiate and run over. Once he did so and began casting the Clockwork Secret Art to restore the aged forbidden ark for his use, Sin began going out of control. Panicking, Levia told her "darling" to hurry putting "her" body in Sin, repeatedly telling him to do so as Kiril obeyed.

Mage of Eternity
Main Article: Elluka Clockworker

Following the unexpected explosion caused by Sin, the twin gods' souls were freed from their prison and inadvertently incarnated in Elluka Chirclatia's corpse, Levia becoming the active conscious while Behemo slumbered in the subconscious. Believing herself to be the real Elluka, the twin gods' reincarnation awoke to the destroyed Levianta and became consumed with grief. "Elluka Clockworker" met with Held a few years later and was tasked with collecting the vessels of sin, accepting the quest to pass her "newfound" immortality.

Over the centuries, Elluka traveled across Evillious, helping anyone in need that she came across. After failing to collect the vessel possessed by Duke Sateriasis Venomania, the mage swapped bodies with Lukana Octo to protect her from the wicked mage I.R. After failing to acquire the Glass of Conchita as well, the mage defected from the Beelzenian Empire to serve King Arth of the Kingdom of Lucifenia, becoming famed as one of the Three Heroes. After the deaths of Arth and his wife Queen Anne, Elluka foresaw Lucifenia's destruction under the tyrannical reign of the demonically possessed Princess Riliane.

The mage then incarnated Held's forest spirits Michaela and Gumillia as humans, training them as her disciples to help prevent the kingdom's demise. Following Michaela's death and Lucifenia's collapse, Elluka and Gumillia continued the search for the vessels of sin across the continent while pursuing the red cat mage also seeking the vessels. After Elluka confronted Eve Moonlit and forced the mad witch's spirit into her own, the twin gods' reincarnation's memories reawakened. In denial of her true nature, Elluka continued pursuing the red cat mage Irina Clockworker and eventually dueled her at Merrigod Plateau on January 30, EC 611.

Confronting Reality
"Now, how about we resume our duel! Levia, and—you along with her! Behemo!"

- Irina Clockworker

After Irina activated her Black Box Type S during the duel, Levia was transported into her own inner psychological world. Manifesting in her original form, the god ascended the stairs of the illusory Leviantan temple before her. As she reached the square at the top, she saw Irina before the ark Sin along with Gumillia, Behemo, and Eve in their original forms standing in front of the three other staircases. Fully realizing the reality of her true identity, Levia lowered her head in silence while Gumillia questioned Irina about Elluka's whereabouts.

After overhearing Irina's explanation that she had killed Elluka 600 years ago and directed Gumillia to the god if she was looking for her master "Elluka Clockworker", Gumillia approached Levia and inquired if she remembered everything. The downcast god nodded before admitting she had known since taking in Eve. Gumillia then put a palm to her right face cheek to her face and noted her true face and form as the god Levia. Afterward, Levia moved toward Sin in the center of the square, musing about the nostalgia the ark presented before asking to confirm that it wasn't actually the real one.

After Irina confirmed it wasn't, the mage described that they were in her inner psychological world embodying her memories and feelings in her mind, hence why they could all appear in their original forms. Levia immediately struck the ark repeatedly, lamenting the fact Seth installed a device that could transport beings into one's mental world into someone's body. The god then mused that it wouldn't be odd for him to be the fifth god if he weren't a HER. Turning back to Irina, Levia finally questioned how the mage figured out she wasn't' Elluka.

Irina admitted she only recently obtained conclusive evidence before pointing out there were some oddities when she thought back on it. When the mage pointed out Elluka Clockworker visited her "old friend" Held after the Levianta Catastrophe, Levia listened to her explanation that she neither heard such a story from Elluka nor know her to have ever left Levianta during her entire life despite the rumors she was communicating with Held. Levia then concluded that the priestess of Lighwatch's death meant she couldn't have been acquainted with the earth god.

Afterward, Irina expressed her doubt Held would be friendly with humans and that Elluka shouldn't have heard him speak unless she was a fellow god or kin. Moving away from the ark, Levia noted that what few memories she had of being Levia made her believe she was Held's old friend before musing that the fact itself was accurate. As she deduced that the earth god had therefore decided to match the mage's story insisting they were friends, Irina speculated that the god realized Elluka's identity immediately and feared she'd regain her memory, pointing out his alliance with the sun god would naturally make the twin gods hostile toward him.

Levia agreed, surmising that she was tasked to search for the vessels of sin so he could monitor her. Admitting it had worked until his life neared its end five hundred years later, the god cited he therefore gave her a new monitor as she approached Gumillia. Putting a hand on the former spirit's shoulder, Levia asked to confirm that she was the monitor. The former kin admitted she was and confirmed Held's intent to have her act as the Mage of Eternity's apprentice. As Gumillia began to qualify the purpose was in case the god ever regained her memories, Levia interjected that the plan would've been to have Michaela help her seal the gods away again.

As the crying kin admitted to the fact again and tried to explain her guilt, Levia gently stroked her head, telling the woman she knew and that the mage knew her, stating that she was a wonderful apprentice. After the crying god kin threw herself into her arms, Levia admitted she didn't understand why she and Michaela didn't lose their memories when they were incarnated from their animal forms. Gumillia explained they did lose them and that Held saved a copy in advanced and overwrote them immediately after the reincarnation so Elluka wouldn't find out. Levia then noted the heavy work required to do so, lamenting that the "old man" was such a sham.

Once Gumillia explained there were side effects and that Michalea's fever was probably due to that while she fared better, Levia slowly moved away from her apprentice and closer to Irina. The pink-haired mage immediately questioned if she had been aware one of her friends during her time as one of the Three Heroes, Prim Marlon, was a HER and Levia hesitantly admitted she wasn't. Irina replied that that would be impossible if she were the priestess of Lighwatch who had the power to heal a HER, noting she could've prevented the Kingdom of Lucifenia's collapse had she possessed the ability.

The mage then noted Elluka conversely possessed abilities she shouldn't and Levia replied that she referred to the Swap Technique. After Irina admitted it was easy to believe the ability was gained as a side effect of her resurrection in the ark, she pointed out it was even easier to believe someone else was inside Elluka Clockworker. Becoming suspicious, Levia pointed out that Irina's reasoning ability was a little too high regardless of how long she lieved, claiming she couldn't have discovered the answer so easily.

The bothered mage then smiled and admitted that she had found out because of Seth, explaining that he cleverly slipped in and became the Demon of Wrath while Hansel and Gretel were creating the vessels of sin. Once the mage related she told Seth about her suspicions when they reunited centuries later, Levia listened as she confirmed that the Demon of Wrath revealed all the facts about the gods, their kin, the demons, and the mechanics of the world to her, hence her discovery about Elluka's true nature. The god then watched Irina approach Eve while describing the completion of her experiments with the Clockworker's Doll fifty years ago.

Once the mage awakened Eve as the "Master of the Court" and the temple crumbled until only the scaffold they were standing on remained floating in the new grid-like space, Levia stood aghast while staring at the mage pair across from them. Irina then welcomed them all to the Court, explaining that the Master of the Court's ability to reset everything was likely the cause of Levia's memory awakening in Elluka. Once she confirmed the realm of judgment Eve created equalized everyone and made it possible to even kill gods, the mage suggested they resume their duel, challenging both twin gods to battle while conjuring massive pillars of blue fire.

When Gumillia expressed her confusion that the person in the maid dress was Behemo, the embarrassed god scratched her head before confirming he was indeed her fraternal twin brother, saying he was a weirdo. Behemo immediately chided that she being too cruel, asking what was wrong with a man dressing like a woman. Before she could answer, Gumillia began arguing with Irina over her vengeful intentions for targeting the gods, the red cat mage citing it was the gods' mistake for allowing Seth to escape their ruined world with them without noticing he himself was a HER.

Once the mage said it her duty as a HER to eradicate the gods and everything related to them, exclaiming she would destroy them all, the Demon of Gluttony intervened and declared she would instead reap the benefits from all their fighting and kill all of them there. Afterward, Levia watched as the demon floating above them summoned a massive skeleton, commanding her "Worldeater" to devour them. When Irina retaliated with her fire magic, telling the Demon of Gluttony to not get in her way, Levia unleashed her own lightning magic from her right hand at the so-called "ultimate dead soldier" as well, adding she wouldn't be killed so easily either. After the two's magic then clashed with Worldeater, the resulting blast caused Levia, Irina, and Eve's souls to fuse together into one.

Legacy
After the duel's conclusion, the new entity comprised of Levia's and the two mages' souls and memories left Merrigod Plateau in Elluka Clockworker's body, dubbing herself "Ma". The mage later traded bodies with Kayo Sudou and continued collecting the vessels of sin for her own ambitions. Levia continued to be worshipped in the Levin faith, a cult faction worshiping belief that the Magic Kingdom Levianta was destroyed because the Leviantans turned away from their teachings after they were supposedly saved when Meta Salmhofer birthed the incarnated twin gods.

Personality and Traits
Levia was a headstrong and stubborn god, fueled by her hatred before eventually letting it go. After helping create the Third Period, Levia strongly opposed Sickle's proposal of leaving the Third Period to the humans' devices, becoming consumed by her anger. Although once amicable with the sun god and the rest of their kin, Levia eventually grew hostile towards him, razing the ground world after being transformed into a dragon and fused with Behemo against her will. Levia similarly disliked her brother, becoming enraged following their merge into Levia-Behemo. After being sealed in Sin, Levia aimed to break free, influencing Maria Moonlit to issue her prophecy and eventually becoming impatient to the point of manipulating Kiril in order to gain freedom.

After losing and regaining her memories, Levia retained Elluka Clockworker's personality, greatly caring for Gumillia and losing her desire to destroy the Third Period. This change in heart even extended to Behemo, although the god was still embarrassed by his unusual way of dressing. Levia also acted civil with Irina, discussing her true identity with her and willingly divulging information about her past. Despite this, Levia disliked Held even after her memories were restored, irritated by the earth god's deception.
