It is later dubbed White Chlorination Syndrome. Later that year, people start being afflicted by a deadly illness that does one of two things: turns them into salt (fatally!), or makes them go berserk. The defeated Mother Angel, aka the Giant, looms over Tokyo at the end of Drag-on Dragoon. So what comes next? Some of this is revealed in NieR, but it’s brought together and a lot of missing details filled in with a companion book called Grimoire NieR. Grimoire NieR timeline, 2010 ( fan translation) Ultimately, the Mother Angel collapses-but moments later, Caim and Angelus are shot down by JSDF jets, and Angelus is left impaled on Tokyo Tower. There, the Mother Angel attempts to destroy the world with rings of magic, which Angelus answers with her own rings in an unforgiving rhythm game. Unexpectedly, the three fall out of a portal in the sky in Shinjuku, Tokyo in the year 2003, in a world which has until then followed history just like our own. In the most inaccessible ending, originally a joke, Caim and Angelus dive towards the Mother Angel. They are led by a gigantic, statue-like woman called the Mother Angel, whose power over ‘Great Time’ threatens to destory the world altogether. In the branch we’re interested in, angels descend to Earth in the form of giant flying babies, which soon set about devouring everybody in the Cathedral City. The Seal system, anchored in Caim’s sister Furiae, is broken, leading to a variety of apocalyptic scenarios. Within the Union is an orphan prince named Caim, driven by fierce hatred of the Empire.Īt a fateful moment, Caim forms a Pact with a dragon named Angelus, linking their souls and giving him the power to slaughter thousands of the Empire’s soldiers and turn the war around. The Red Eye-infected form a large Empire, and the remaining nations ally against it in a Union. Over the next hundred years, the unconscious malevolent influence of One’s brother leads to the appearance of a ‘Red Eye’ disease among the followers of the Church, which gives people supernatural strength and an inclination to violence. However, before long, One’s brother is deposed and exiled. The Church creates a ‘Seal System’ designed to contain all the apocalyptic badness threatening the world, anchored in the person of a Goddess. However, moments later, One’s brother kills Zero, which also causes Mikhail to die.Īs the sole survivor, One’s brother founds a new Church of the Angels, which worships Intoners and the Angels they summon. To save him, Zero uses the Flower’s power to create a magical form called a Pact, which links the souls of a human and a magical creature, granting great power at deep personal cost to the human. In the branch that leads to NieR, Zero kills her sisters, but Mikhail is fatally injured.
One, the leader of the Intoners, created a clone who she calls her brother. From then on, the timeline splits into at least five branches, with different outcomes. Her first attempt fails, and Michael is reincarnated as an infant dragon, Mikhail.
Zero allies with a dragon called Michael, and goes on a campaign to eradicate her five sisters. When she attempted suicide, the five sisters manifested as a defence mechanism. These five sisters spawned from a woman known as Zero, who became infected with a parasitic magical Flower which wants to end the world. The city becomes known as the Cathedral City, and world history is irrevocably transformed.Īround 1000 AD, the magical feudal order is overthrown by five magical sisters known as the Intoners, who can summon powerful beings called Angels. A modern city suddenly manifests in Spain, bringing with it magical creatures such as dragons. It begins in 853 AD, in an alternate timeline. We have covered the plot of Drag-on Dragoon 3 and Drag-on Dragoon in a whole lot of detail, but let’s quickly recap. and I suspect he’s the artist for most or all of these images, but I can’t confirm! Drag-on Dragand Drag-on Dragoon/ Drakengard, 2003 The main character designer for the game is known as D.K. The illustrations in this article are official art, from Grimoire NieR via the Nier wiki. However, fans have done an incredible job making up for the lack, and there are only a few significant gaps. The vast majority of NieR content has never been officially translated, which is unfortunate because the game leaves out a lot of key plot information covered in books like Grimoire NieR. You may want to read previous articles on DoD3 and DoD1. I began in 2018, abandoned the effort for two years, and then came back to it. This project is an attempt to stitch all the Drag-on Dragoon and NieR games, and their surrounding novellas, stage plays, concert dramas, lore books, and so on, and so on, into one full, cohesive story.
