Fifth entry for the Fav Male Characters collection, this time from the biblically-blasphemous game, Xenosaga.

His name in the game is actually 'chaos' (with small-letter "c"), but why would you call him that when he's obviously SPACE JESUS!

You might think I'm kidding or lying, but I'm not. He is actually HALF of Jesus' powers (which is questionable, because God is infinite, and if you cut infinity in half... how does that work?). And that hot blue-haired android he's with that has the big-ass guns? Saint Mary Magdalene. Is that just awesomely blasphemous or what?


ACTUAL BACKSTORY
chaos (or 'Yeshua' as he was called) is the human incarnation in the real number domain of the Universe of the power of Anima existing in the imaginary number domain from the lower plain of the Universe. Along with Mary, he followed the man called the 'Messiah'. Long ago at the beginning of the universe, certain wills of humanity resonated purely with Anima. These wills began a chain reaction throughout the collective consciousness, resulting in the dispersal of consciousnesses, a phenomenon that led the universe towards destruction. The dispersing wills that reject the collective consciousness are commonly called Gnosis when seen in the real world. Eventually, the increasing dispersal of the collective consciousness would lead the universe to collapse. To counter this, Anima also possessed a failsafe function. When consciousnesses of rejection-- those that desire dispersal-- exceed critical mass, the imaginary number domain collapses, which causes the collapse of the real number domain and, as a result, leads to the collapse of the entire universe, swallowing up the upper domain. This is the universe's desperate, dangerous situation. When a breakdown or error is produced in one part of a system, the "failsafe" is the function that keeps the effect from spreading to the entire system. It is for the sake of ensuring safety. In other words, it is thought that the Failsafe is the system that keeps a problem produced in one section of the universe from spreading its ill-effects to all the world. If that's the case, then it is thought that the function of the universe's Failsafe is something for the sake of avoiding the collapse of the entire universe, including both upper and lower domains. However, as long as Anima existed, the consciousnesses of the universe would continue to disperse until the universe was slowly destroyed by collapse. Wilhelm chose Eternal Recurrence to avoid this. By using Zaruthustra he planned to perpetually rewind time to the past, living in an eternal cycle. This prevented both the collapse through dispersal and the destruction of wills by the failsafe. But this meant living the same lives over and over again. chaos rejected the Eternal Recurrence, deciding to trust in the wills of humanity to change the future.

Did you get all that?

The wing closest to the camera is too low. It needs to be higher or the other one needs to be lower. Whichever. Other than that looks good
