Canon History
Dextera was the smaller and weaker of a set of conjoined twins. He and his brother were attached at the hip but they shared a heart. Because of this, only one could be awake at a time. They played chess, taking turns when one would wake up, and writing notes for the other sibling for when it was "their turn". However, one heart couldn't keep both of them alive, so they were dying. The choice was made to separate the two, which doomed Dextera's brother because he wasn't the one with the heart.
Meanwhile, The Absolute God had returned to the world. In Baroque, God is a physical being. The Absolute God used items called Consciousness Orbs to filter the world. Each orb is attached to another in a way, and ideas, information, and items can be transferred through them. They gather at the bottom floor of a building known as the Neuro Tower—the sanctuary of the Religious Order of Malkuth, and the place where God dwells.
However, because of the Order of Malkuth experimenting with Consciousness Orbs and the transfer of information, the Absolute God was beginning to lose grasp of reality and when God's reality shifts, the reality of the world shifts. The common delusions that people held began to grow and physically affect them, twisting their bodies and distorting them. The Order of Malkuth took it upon themselves to Save God and try and fix what was happening.
They failed.
Not everyone within the order agreed, however. The Archangel took it upon himself to pour more distorted data into the consciousness orbs (as well as in fake consciousness orbs created to transfer only information,) and God began to go madder and madder. The Archangel's plan was to remove Pain from the Absolute God, and create a Mad God completely incapable of realizing her own insanity. He then wished to collect her Pain into an ampule and fire it within her, letting the shards of God's Pain explode into her and destroying God herself. He gave orders to Dr. Angelicus and Longneck to begin removing Pain from her, which became embodied by small angels called Littles.
The Archangel wished to collect the Absolute God’s Idea Sephira. An Idea Sephira is the core of a person, the very embodiment of everything they are into a small crystal and if he had the Absolute God’s Idea Sephira, he could shape the world into his ideal one – a world without the pain of distortion or suffering.
On the other side of the Order, a high-ranking group known as the Koriels had a different idea. The Koriel's consisted of 12 members, one of which being Dextera. Rather than allow The Archangel to destroy God and create a new world, the Koriels wished to fuse a human with God and give her words. They wished to understand God's will, rather than simply destroy her. For this, however, a human would have to be fused with The Absolute God.
Dextera was picked because he had “lost” half of himself when his brother died. On May 14, the Koriel tried the Dabar fusion and it nearly succeeded. However, the Archangel interrupted the fusion and Dextera and the Absolute God were torn apart. Dextera lost his memories and his voice but gained the ability to purify while the Absolute God gained a voice to speak with but there was now a gap where Dextera was supposed to go. She created two Divinities – Alice and Eliza – to fill in that gap, who would go on to wander the Neuro Tower.
This event also triggered The Blaze which sped up the distortions, turning everyone into a Twisted One or a Meta-Being. The world soon fell into ruin afterwards.
Meanwhile, the Archangel labeled the Koriels as traitors and locked them within Confinement Coffins within the Neuro Tower. Dextera, however, he kept. Because of Dextera's ability to purify (and his absence of memories) he could be used to further Archangel's plans in purifying the Absolute God. To ensure that the task could be completed, Archangel cloned Dextera.
Each clone was instilled with the 'memory' of a sort of test-run— Appearing on the surface of the Outer World, meeting the Archangel and receiving the Angelic Rifle, and repeatedly being told that he must go to the bottom floor of the Neuro Tower and purify God to atone for his sin of ruining the world. They also retain the memory of the clone before them due to a consciousness orb—so if one were to die or fail in some way the next would begin again at the surface, starting over with no experience or equipment, but with all the information gained by the previous one.
Eventually Dextera stumbles across a video that shows him his true role in the Blaze: he wasn't responsible for causing it, he was actually supposed to be part of fixing the problem. Unfortunately he's stabbed to death before anything else can happen.
Asphodel History
Naoki lives alone, having lost his older brother in an event that he can't remember but blames himself for none the less and suffers a strange, intense guilt he can't place. Spent most of his childhood in the hospital and also lost his parents during that time. Oddly the death of his brother hit him harder than the death of his parents.
Naoki has fairly average marks in school, enough to pass but not enough to be noticed by anyone. Tends to spend his time writing things he sees in a notebook in an effort to help his memory. He's usually regarded as a bit unsociable, mostly due to the fact that he's mute and has difficulty communicating with others and is a little strange.
Routine
- Wakes up at six o'clock to make breakfast (usually something extremely simple like toast).
- Spends time before going to school writing in his notebook about anything he dreamed the night before or anything he's seen up until that time.
- Goes to school at eight and generally fades into the background during this time.
- Heads home without participating in any after-school programs (as none have caught his attention yet). Finishes any homework and writes how the day went into his notebook.
- Spends an hour or so outside just wandering around. Goes to bed right after.
