Appearance and personality[edit]
Story arc[edit]
History[edit]
Febronia was a U-TIC Organization developed human-Realian hybrid designed by Joachim Mizrahi for Zohar control experiments on Miltia. She was owned by the Uzuki family. She helped raised Shion while her mother was in a coma and her father worked for U-TIC. Additionally, Febronia's creation provided the foundation for three other Transgenic Type Realians, the 100-Series Realians, and the 27-Series Asuras. During her time on Miltia, she took care of an abandoned church on the outskirts of Dasgupta. Shion frequently attended this church and at one time, prayed with Febronia. Febronia also taught Shion how to grow flowers during this time
Miltian Conflict[edit]
During the Miltian Conflict, Febronia came across a wounded Galaxy Federation soldier named Luis Virgil, who narrowly survived the Second Descent Operation. In an act of selflessness, she nursed him back to health by transplanting her own organs into his body. After growing a deeper understanding of their differences, Virgil and Febronia entered a brief relationship.
On the night of the Third Descent Operation, the activation of the Song of Nephilim caused a group of group of berserk combat Realians to chase Shion back to the church. Febronia confronted the Realians to serve as a distraction and allow Virgil and Shion to escape, but was stabbed and cannibalized by the berserk Realians in the process. Virgil, greatly upset by Febronia's death, retaliated against her killers and took her body to safety. To cope with the trauma, Virgil convinced himself that he never loved Febronia, and attempted to maintain a disdain for the Realian race as a whole. Shion, on the other hand, subconsciously suppressed her memories of the Miltian Conflict after her brother Jin helped her evacuate the planet.
Episode I[edit]
As Virgil is shot in the back by a bullet barrage from the combat Android KOS-MOS, he sees a brief vision of Febronia. Much later, Febronia appears to Shion and co. when they make their way into KOS-MOS' Encephalon to a memory of Old Miltia. She claims she longed for it to be a place where Realians could find peace. Shion recognizes Febronia and quickly flashes back to her being eaten. She claims she knows her, but says she doesn't want to remember. Febronia has Shion and the others follow her into a room in the back where she claims they will come face to face with themselves. This brings them to a memory of the Acute Neurosis Treatment Facility, where Shion's mother stayed when she was a child. After the group defeats the Gnosis Tiamat, Shion appears in a field with a tree where she sees Febronia accompanying two young girls, her "sisters" Cecily and Cathe. Febronia tells her that isn't the real her, and this field is an illusion created for Cecily and Cathe and that she's showing it to them using KOS-MOS' Encephalon construction abilities. She claims her sisters are trapped by a binding spell used by mankind to control the Zohar. She requests that Shion release them.
Episode II[edit]
Febronia appears to Shion while she is on board the Dämmerung. She appears in a vision along with the Zohar and explains this is a cage her sisters are held in. She asks Shion to free them and lift the curse mankind has placed upon them. When Shion and the others arrive at the U-DO System, finding Cecily and Cathe, Shion hears Febronia's voice again, asking her to set them free.

She met Shion as a child at the time of the Miltian Conflict, and looked after her in Shion's hospitalized mother's stead.
Later, she met Luis Virgil, who had been wounded in battle, and transplanted a portion of her own body tissue in order to save his life. For a brief while after that, she and the human Virgil rendezvoused frequently, nurturing the love between them.
However, when the combat Realians went out of control upon the activation of the Song of Nephilim, she shielded Virgil and Shion, and was brutally killed before their eyes.
