Versusia (Voice: Elizabeth Maxwell [EN] / Maki Kawase [JP])
Versusia is an amalgamation of the divine and mortal—the god of destruction manifested in human flesh, indifferent to the Sky Realm and the lives that dwell within. Her purpose is clear: to reset a world plagued by distortions. Those who would defy her are met with a destructive fate as she mercilessly purges all who stand in her path.
