Lady & Gentleman

Shion Otosaka, also known as Lady & Gentleman or simply Gentleman, is a Runecraft leader in Shadowverse and a main character in Shadowverse Flame. Their Digital Friend is Milady.

Biography

A mysterious person who always acts from the shadows through a digital avatar. She is a 1st year student at Shadowverse Battle College, although she take classes remotely. She was also the leader of Sixth Magic. However, due to everyone rejecting her advice due to her controlling personality, she appointed Shinobu Miki to act on their behalf in the club, following instructions through an earphone.

After a battle with Light Tenryu, she joined Seventh Flame.

Upon going to Nekome's arcade center, her true identity is discovered by Ren Kazamatsuri and Tsubasa Takanashi. Tsubasa challenges her to a battle and she accept, asking her to keep her identity secret if she win. Despite winning, Tsubasa decides to keep her secret, having formed a bond with Shion, who starts to see that she is not as alone as she thought.

Gentleman is the first representative of Seventh Flame in the Shadowverse Club Tournament, facing Shinobu Miki. At first, she fears that Shinobu will hate her for manipulating her, but she remarks that she does not understand her feelings. Despite breaking down when her calculations are exceeded, Shion manages to pull off the win thanks to the support of their clubmates and promises Shinobu a real talk.

Shion finally shows in person to their clubmates and other club presidents when they all go to the resort on Genesis Island. This gives her enough confindence to go in person to the club as well and support Light in his battle with Mikado Shirogane.

After entering the Shadowverse World Ranking along with the rest of the club, Shion begins to experience difficulty to even asking someone to battle with them due to their social anxiety. This leads them to use their avatar again and win various battles. On the second day, seeing Warden Craft in the city and identifying him as a Grand Master, Shion decides to challenge him, seeing that they could win a lot of points. However, Warden turns out to be not only an amazing tactician but someone who surpasses Shion even in boastful attitude. After losing, Shion takes Warden's words about being alone to heart.

Shion finishes in fifth place in the World Ranking after defeating Shiro Kiriyama. However, they remain distant from their friends even when they are all taken to the Shadow Area for the battle against the Seven Shadows. After reaching the area where Warden is, Shion decides to confront him again to find the answer to whether they should be alone or with their clubmates. However, even though Ren and Tsubasa come to support them, Shion remains trapped in their internal conflict and her fear that their bonds will break over time. However, seeing how Ren jumps to her defense when they are about to lose, claiming that none of them are forced to change who they really are, Shion is able to understand that they do not need the absolute certainty that Warden claims, since they can move forward towards an uncertain future being the dubious person that they are. Thus, they manages to win, impress Warden and strengthen their bond with Ren and Tubasa.

After supporting Light in the final battle against Hiro, Shion and the rest are taken to Genesis Corporation to stop the Shade invasion led by the Arc Ruler. To do this, they are given the Nexa System and tasked with stopping the three towers created by the Arc Ruler. Shion is shown to be the most doubtful about their role in the situation and what the Arc Ruler really is, but finally decides to help.

Shion is the one who decides that the best strategy is to divide into groups and attack all their objectives at once. When assigning the teams, Shion chooses the one who would go to help Shadoba College, but Mikado decide that it is best for Shion to stay in Genesis leading the mission, with him being the one to help at the school.

However, Shion is forced to abandon their post to stop Warden who had left the mission to fulfill his own objective. As Shion intercepts him with their digital avatar, Warden forces them into a battle in which both risk their lives thanks to a program that he himself designed which added sensory feedback even through Shion's avatar. During the battle, Shion confronts Warden about his selfishness and disinterest in the welfare of the world, though Warden denies that his goal is the only thing that matters and unleash the power of Calamity's Genesis that he stole from Leon Aurenche. Still, Shion remains steadfast in their desire to preserve their bonds and future, allowing Milady to evolve into Milady, Mystic Empress, giving Shion the victory.

After Warden reveals that his system was never actually going to kill either of them and that the battle actually opened his eyes, the two are shocked by a large explosion coming from Shadowverse College.

Personality

Shion is a solitary and reclusive person, always avoiding any human contact and preferring to interact with their avatar. They really like rabbits, video games and chess.

By showing themself as Gentleman, they prove to be an eccentric and spontaneous person, and somewhat arrogant and short tempered. They have great knowledge about Shadowverse and sincerely seek to share it, but they have trouble connecting with others due to being overly controlling, which leads to their reclusion. They are also quite unscrupulous, spying and hacking others without remorse.

The in-game event story Frayed Flames implies that Shion's grandiose personality is partly a front used to push people away out of fear of being rejected. They say that they are "a heartless, selfish jerk" and that "there's nothing about [them] to love", and believe that everyone finds them insufferable and hates them just as much as they hate themself. However, the other members of Seventh Flame assure them this is not so; in response to their kindness, Gentleman agrees to be less controlling and works out their issue with Ren.

It is seen that, due to their long time isolated, Shion suffers from great shyness and fear of social situations. They slowly starts to get over it by showing themself off to their clubmates.

Deck

Shion uses a Runecraft deck constructed around Chess cards. Their strategy focus on swarming the board with Magical Pawns and using spells to deal damage and add cards to their hand, with Mystic King as their ace and finisher.
