Never There

Overview
Never There is a Top-Tier Longinus Class Sacred Gear, also known as the '''Laughing Ghost Gear. '''It is considered to be the fourth most powerful Sacred Gear, and allows the user to erase his presence.

Appearance
Never There retains no physical appearance.

Summary
Never There is considered to be the most enigmatic of the Sacred Gears. It is stated by Azazel to be one of the most formidable of Sacred Gears and no one knows how The Biblical God managed to create a Sacred Gear that erases the user's presence. And with God's demise, there is no shortage of abilities that Never There can use.

Abilities
Never There gives the user the ability to erase their presence from the world, allowing them to pass through walls, defy gravity to an extent (depending in the wielder), and even eliminate their own causality.

The downside of this ability is that, if the user 'dilutes' their existence too much, they will literally cease to exist, even to those who knew them.

The only way to counter this effect is through their own personal 'fetter,' a 'link to the world the user wishes to return to'. In Tai Lung's case, Rias Gremory, having made him her Bishop, has become Tai Lung's 'fetter.'
 * Existence Dilute: The user dilutes the existence of a single target to the extent that they cease to exist at the cost of several years out of the user's life.
 * Heart Attack: An attack used by Tai Lung, where he slips his hand into the target's chest and squeezes the life out of their physical heart.
 * Laughing Ghost Dominion Claim: Another ability created and used by Tai Lung, where he is able to possess a person, place, or object. This, however, is limited to the size and integrity of the chosen object.
 * Laughing Ghost Influence: A lesser version of Laughing Ghost Dominion Claim, to which the user whispers into the mind of a living target, influencing their decisions and choices.

Trivia

 * Never There was an inspiration of the abilities of Chain Sumeragi, a character from Blood Blockade Battlefront.
 * The wielder of Never There, Tai Lung, was originally the possessor of Annihilation Maker, but the idea was scrapped.
