Amatsu-Mikaboshi (Solarverse)



"Who's…Amatsu-Mikaboshi?

Not who, boy. What.

Okay…What is Amatsu-Mikaboshi?

It is the strongest entity in our faction. As well the first to exist in it.

What? But I thought you were the oldest being in Shintoism.

I am the oldest deity in Shintoism, not the oldest being...There's one simple way to describe it…It is one of the five existing personifications of the Originating Darkness."

- Amenominakanushi and Issei Hyoudou conversating about Amatsu-Mikaboshi

Amatsu-Mikaboshi (天津甕星) — also known as Ama-no-Minaka-nushi — is the Primordial Shinto Cosmic Entity of Sin, Malice, and Stars, specifically the Pole Star, according to the creation myths. It is the Primordial Chaos that existed before the Kotoamatsukami, and therefore predates the entire Shinto Pantheon.

History
Amatsu-Mikaboshi is the personification of the primordial darkness that existed before the formation of the DxD Universe, alongside several other cosmic entities alike it. As time passed, the unstable energies of In and Yo began moving spontaneously, causing Amatsu-Mikaboshi's original form to partially collapse on its own. The realm of Takamagahara is formed to replace it, and within it, the first and oldest deities of Shintoism are born- The Kotoamatsukami.

From there on, Amatsu-Mikaboshi's fate is a mystery, as there's nothing else written in the myths. However, in the present, it is revealed that Mikaboshi lies within the realms of Yomi-no-Kuni and Soku-no-Kumi.

Amatsu-Mikaboshi is inside the Solarverse, but it also originates outside of it, as it has existed before its formation.

Appearance
As the dark, primordial void of Shinto Mythology, Amatsu-Mikaboshi has no singular form, meaning that any indication of its original form is rather elusive. Its true form can be characterized as a frightening endless mass of absolute darkness that induces utter madness and insanity. After its fragmentation however, the size of its mass diminished greatly, but it retains its original shape.

Personality
"I still don't understand how it is connected to that realm you speak of. What would it be doing there?

Hiding, of course.

Hiding? From what?

From Life, boy."

Although Amatsu-Mikaboshi is primarily known as the "God of Evil and Malice", it is anything but. Rather, it is a bitter and cold force of nature, and as such, speaks with a voice oozing with acrimonious and faintly hidden contempt for all that is life. This is presumably due to its annoyance of the concept of Life essentially 'ridding' of the Primordial Darkness that Amatsu-Mikaboshi originally was.

In addition to its aloof nature, Amatsu-Mikaboshi is in fact an emotionless and apathetic individual. It is well aware of the dichotomy between good and evil, as well as the difference between right and wrong, but does not care for the concepts, as such notions are beneath the cosmic entity.

Powers and Abilities
As it is a 'personafiction of the Originating Darkness', Amatsu-Mikaboshi is suggested to be an extremely powerful existence. Amenominakanushi believes it to be more powerful than even him and Issei, with the latter thinking that it might even be strong enough to confidently challenge the Great Red himself.

It is ranked amongst the top 5 strongest Solarverse entities in the Above's list.

As if now, however, nothing more specific can be said about it. However, the fact that it's a universally primordial entity of darkness, suggests an extremely powerful Umbrakinesis ability.
