Equipment
Hollow Persona also known as Through the Looking Glass is the sacred gear possessed by Christopher Evans.

Hollow Persona is a support-type state change sacred gear that allows him to manipulate the light around himself or other objects allowing him to render them invisible. The setback to this however is that if he is viewed from multiple different directions at the same time, it can allow his enemies to see small traces of him in general, thus limiting the effectiveness when facing multiple opponents. This sacred gear also relies heavily on his stamina, eating it up the more he stays individual.
