KURO

magiturge that broke out of the arena enmeshment timeloop and completely erased their data from the machine, separating them permanently.
after separation they watched "the madness" occur and effectively caused another timeline to split into existence, where a different, nameless grunt is subjected to the enmeshment loop. _{(and the timeline where the madness occurred but nobody cares about that:3)}
and in said timeline, it was as if they never existed- nobody has any recollection of them, yet they exist regardless.
// alongside this, due to kuro not being stored in the "theoretical" metaphysical database within the machine, its impossible to alter any code relating to them. so their stats will permanently stay absurdly high and removing their skills & abilities are also impossible to do.

after experiencing the [integer limit] number of enmeshment loops, kuro is abhorridly powerful to where they're essentially in permanent creative mode. they can be harmed, yes. but it isnt easy to do any sort of meaningful damage to them. but its plenty easy for them to cripple you.
and infact just using their abilities in large doses is enough to cause the surrounding area to lag and within the general radius, it'll feel as if all movement is sluggish and delayed.
, i should mention what kuro is able to do. but in reality they can do jackshit anything. minus doing things that would require an improbability drive to do (altering stats, cracking into purgatory, etc).
// despite this they are really, REALLY adamant about trying to manipulate their magic to that skill level. but they can't do that without enmeshing so they're kinda just. crying about it, ig

they currently just roam around nevada central. specifically keeping tabs on SQ and just watching everything that goes on.
and they aren't really on anyone's side? i mean. they have nothing to gain apart from that last bit of power they crave, but really is it worth it to be better than the top? and even with that power, they wouldn't care to do much with it, since they have all they could ever need or want.
