"Humans banished from the paradise were foolish enough to revolt against god. In order to resist the power of god, they created twelve Anima Relics, and called themselves gods... For 10 days, 10 nights, the world shed its blood, Mahanon was enveloped in flames. But human strength was no match for god and the arrogant humans were destroyed by god's anger. Only a few righteous men were left on the land. However, god was also tired and wounded. He decided to rest in the deepest depths of the earth. God's rest was long. But eternity is only a moment to god. Since then, the righteous men who didn't revolt against god had to live in the harsh nature by themselves, being in constant fear of death... When the righteous men's children are born again, god will awaken from his long rest and give a helping hand to them."

Billy's Anima Relic, "Joseph"

The Anima Relics are a series of twelve yellow rectangular parts, each with one eye that resemble the Zohar. When a Gear aligns with one of them, the Gear is able to morph into a vastly more powerful Omnigear.

History[]

The Anima Relics are an organic part from biological computer Kadomony, with the other two being the Persona, and the Animus.

10,000 years ago, when the Eldridge crash scattered the Anima Relics across the planet, Cain and the Gazel Ministry were created with the purpose of locating them to complete Deus's revival.[1]

Names[]

Five of the alignments are explicitly stated by the Gazel:

One alignment is mentioned on the computer in Karellen's Laboratory. In the comments of Bart's profile, it states, "Upon 'Dan' Anima's retrieval, schedule for Animus adjustment."

The Gazel state only that Dan, Joseph, and Gad "have each been aligned with a surface dweller as their Animus." On the computer in Karellen's Laboratory, Bart, Billy, and Rico are displayed in the same order as their Anima Relics are obtained in the game. It is therefore assumed that Joseph is Billy's and Gad is Rico's.

The Gazel also state that the other four relics "were already aligned 500 years ago," referring to the Shevat-Solaris War. Fei states that they are in the hands of the Ministry. It is assumed only that one of the relics is aligned with Myyah Hawwa and her Opiomorph. Emeralda and Maria do not have Anima alignment.

  • Reuben (#1) was aligned 500 years ago.
  • Simeon (#2) was aligned 500 years ago.
  • Levi (#3) was aligned 500 years ago.
  • Issachar (#9) was aligned 500 years ago.

Etymology[]

  • The names of the twelve Anima Relics correspond to the names of the first twelve children of Jacob, an important figure from Abrahamic religions.
