- Gomorrah, the Devourer of the Divine (Dur 10. A six-legged, 100' long black wingless dragon-like demonic beast, displaying formidable strength, speed and resilience, attacking with crushing fangs and sharp claws.)
- Malphas (Dur 5. A crow-like demon with black wings, a vicious beak and wicked talons. May be only partially summoned to grant its summoner its wings along with Flight 7 (Agl.bonus, Efficient).)
- Hekatoncheir, the Shatterer of the Earth (Dur 8. An unseen six-armed demons who only manifests by his arms bursting from the ground to perform its summoner's bidding.)
- Scolopendra, the Eradicator of Paradise (Dur 10. An immensely long and slithering centipede demon exceeding ten kilometers in length. Enjoys crushing its victims by constricting around them until near nothing is left.)
- Phantasmaraneae, the Twister of Flame (Dur 7. A huge, terrifying stone and magma spider demon with multiple powers related to fire, explosions and its own children.)

- Baal, the Empress of the Fathoms (Dur 8. A gigantic toad demon with a red and gold crown on her head with a spiked back, and tongue. Despite not being a mammal, has very noticeable breasts. Its tongue is very sticky and often used to swallow victims whole, and can also spit acid.)

- Carnage, the Reveler of Plague (Dur 3, with 1 more stone per additional Carnage spawned. Unlike the other Summons, Carnage is actually multiple demons appearing as large dragonflies. They die fairly easily for demons, but then release spore and bacteria that can infect and kill way more than their physical might could otherwise indicate.)
- Madama Butterfly, the Mistress of Atrocity (Dur 15. Bayonetta's Infernal sponsor and one of the most frighteningly powerful and feared demons of Inferno. She is surprisingly friendly and even pretty chill with her most prized servant, apparently seeing Cereza as more of a daughter of sorts than a tool unlike most demons.)

Additionally, adds stones played as defense for the user from affected people's attacks, up to AN, to represent how difficult it is to hit someone moving considerably faster than oneself.

- Guillotine (Atk VS Agl + Ref.Dodge, 2x damage, May only work when initiated from behind target. Bayonetta summons a large, black metal guillotine with a huge blade.

- Pulley and Chain (Atk VS Agl + Ref.Dodge, Normal and Stun damage, Only usable when both Bayonetta and her target are off the ground. She summons a large metallic structure with a pulley and a long chain, jumping on her target's head and wrapping the chain around it, launching it into the pulley.)
- Tombstone (Atk VS Durability, 2x damage; Only usable against a foe laying down on the ground. Hands from hell crawl out of the ground to grab onto and immobilize the victim, as a huge tombstone is summoned, floating above the victim... for a second or so before it pummels down onto its hapless victim, crushing it.)
- Wooden Horse (Atk VS Agl + Ref.Dodge, 2x damage, Normal and Stun damage, Halves Speed, rounded down, for 1 panel/white stone of damage. This extremely painful attack consists of summoning a spiked wooden horse torture device, and a metal whip. Bayonetta will crack the whip as the victim tries to run away, catching them with it and slamming them onto the device. She then tugs on the whip while pushing the victim onto the spikes with her heel.)
- Vise (Atk VS Agl + Ref.Dodge, 3x damage. The victim is caught by chains between two huge metal hands with dozens of sharpened spikes on the palms. They struggle to get free for a moment, before the hands slap against each other, hard, crushing the victim into a bloody paste.)
- Wheel of Torture (Atk VS Agl + Ref.Dodge, 2x damage, Deals Half the initial damage, rounded up, on the next panel. Bayonetta summons a giant spiked wheel of torture, slamming it into her enemy and pinning them to the ground. She kicks the wheel once, causing it to spin and its spikes to rip into the victim, before kicking it again, sending wheel and victim flying away before it explodes.)
- Chainsaw (Atk VS Agl + Ref.Dodge, 2x damage. Bayonetta leaps onto a foe as she manifests a huge demonic-looking chainsaw from behind her back, reving up the engine before slamming it into the victim who tries to block, but is soon overpowered and usually cut in half. The Chainsaw then remains in Bayonetta's possession as a slow, clumsy yet devastating +8, 2x damage, Limited AP weapon for up to AN panels after the initial attack, vanishing into a black cloud of smoke afterwards.)
- Treadmill of Blades (Atk VS Spd + Ref.Dodge, 3x damage. Bayonetta summons a treadmill leading to a rotating wall of spinning blades and spikes under the victim's feet. As they attempts to run to stay ahead of the blades, she kicks them into the blades, leading to a gory death.)
- Spiked Cage (Atk VS Agl + Ref.Dodge, 2x damage, Normal and Stun damage, Paralyzes for 1 panel/white stone of damage after the attack, Only usable from behind the target. Bayonetta summons a cage before the victim, kicking them inside as she manifests a three-headed whip to lash at them with repeatedly. After a moment, she then kicks the cage's door closed, as a ceiling filled with spikes descend unto the victim to finish them off.)
- Bear Trap (Atk VS Agl + Ref.Dodge, 2x damage, Only usable against enemis off the ground while Bayonetta is on it. She manifests a large bear trap in midair before manifesting a metal whip, which she proceeds to catch the victim with, and slam them onto said trap.)
- The Rack (Atk VS Dur, 2x damage. This huge metallic device is summoned directly onto the victim, trapping them within. Bayonetta then pulls the handle near the base, causing the Rack to twist and pull at the victim's body until it is violently torn in half.)
- Rottisserie (Atk VS Agl + Ref.Dodge, 2x damage, Sets flammable objects on fire. The victim is trapped inside a cylindrical cage with knives pointing inwards, which is suspended over a fire.

CHALLENGES
-Looking non-human (-2; Cereza is quite tall for a girl, and near superhumanly beautiful, due to her half-Umbra, half-Lumen heritage.)
-Psychological (-3; severe pride. Bordering on downright arrogance, Bayonetta is a very proud person, with the utmost confidence in her own capabilities and skills, as well as beauty and smarts. She certainly has much reason to be, but it can, and has, been used against her.)
-Psychological (-2; highly sexual. Cereza is extremely seductive, flirtatious and playful in regards to her own sexuality, using it to tease, taunt and mess with friend and foe alike. She is not one bit afraid to use her looks or charm to get her way in life.)
-Psychological (-2; showoff. Bayonetta loves to be the center of attention and to be needlessly over the top if it means looking good while doing it.)
-Psychological (-1; mild impatience. Cereza prefers when life gets a move on, and being forced to wait or 'waste' time in a boring situation tends to annoy her. She can live with it, but won't be happy with it.)
-C.T.S.U.F.U (-2; while she would never admit it, Bayonetta is a good-hearted person who cares for others more than she cares to admit it.)
-Antisocial tendencies (-3; severe violence. While she is otherwise classy and eloquent, Bayonetta is utterly ruthless and brutally violent towards her enemies, slaughtering them without remorse of mercy. She will be mostly friendly and kind in her usual nonchalant manner otherwise, but her foes will most certainly suffer.)
-Duty (-4; Bayonetta sees it as her duty to oppose her world's Angels, who seek to destroy the free will of mankind, and the Demons who want to destroy it entirely. While self-appointed, she takes said duty very seriously.)
-Hatred/prejudice (-3; VS Angels, and demons who would oppose mankind.)
-Addiction (-1; postively, absolutely and wholeheartedly loves lollipops. Seems to consider them as the best treat ever.)
-Minority (-1; pansexual. She doesn't seem to care much about gender when playing around and flirting with people for fun.)
-Deadly enemies (-7; most of the Angels of Paradiso, and many of the demons of Inferno, want her dead. Naturally, it's a very reciprocal feeling.)
-Demonic Pact (-5; with Madama Butterfly. In order to achieve greater power and become a full Umbra Witch, Bayonetta has made a pact with the demonesss known as Madama Butterfly, taking her as her infernal sponsor and pledging her soul to her in return. When she dies, Cereza's soul will fall directly to Ingerno where she will become a servant/slave of the demoness. Luckily, such a relationship might turn out to be not so bad, as the two seem to usually get along just fine.)
EQUIPMENT
-Currently Worn: Umbra Witch uniform (Appears as a sexy, form-fitting black leather jumpsuit with various engravings and markings as well as 'sleeves' of hair going down from her arms, along with matching shoes and gloves, and a pair of fancy, rectangular glasses. However, the entire outfit with the exception of her gloves, boots, and weapons, is actually all made out of her shapeshifted hair, see Wicked Weaves above. The outfit becomes more and more revealing the more she uses her hair in her attacks, up to vanishing completely when summoning a demon fully.)
-Love is Blue (+3, 2x damage, 3x damage VS Angels and Demons, Limited AP, Range 5 each, or +2 each when used as melee weapons, Indestructible; four of them. This set of four magical semi-automatic handguns draw upon their user's magical power to generate infinite ammo, and are generally fairly devastating in battle for their size. Those blue pistols each bear the Umbran symbol, a gem (red teardrop, grey oval-shaped, black diamond-shaped and green rectangle-shaped), and an engraved inscription (respectively 'Eye of the Overseer', 'An Endless Life', 'The Darkest Night' and 'A Jealous Lover'), and also bear individual names, namely Prelude, Minuet, Toccata and Nocturne. Bayonetta dual wields two of them in her hands, and attaches the other two to the back of her shoes, firing them telekinetically in battle. They are her favorite, and main weapon in battle.)
-Umbran Watch (Makes a Witch who wears them immortal. Useless to anyone else.)
-Lollipops aplenty
-Smartphone
RESERVE EQUIPMENT
-Rakshasa (+3, 2x damage VS Angels, AP, Indestructible weapons, four of them. Swords that absorbed the demon god Rakshasa's essence and were then cleansed with Soma. Like Love is Blue, Bayonetta owns four of them, which can be wielded in her hands and set on the back of her shoes, making her devastatingly dangerous in close quarters.)
-Alruna (+2, 2x damage; Normal and Stun damage OR Area effect 3, Indestructible; four of them. Another weapon which Bayonetta owns four of, which can be wielded in both hands and on both shoes. Alruna are four demonic whips within which the soul of the demoness Alraune was sealed, thus giving it its cursed power. They appear as cruelly thorny, red vine-like whips.)
-Undine (+3, 2x damage, Area attack, Sets flammable objects on fire for the two fire launchers, and +3, 2x damage, Area attack, Normal and Stun damage for the two ice launchers. Alternately may power up either pair with the other two to make the fire launchers deal 3x damage, or the ice launcher Atk VS Durability to freeze solid. The launchers are Indestructible and are usually worn with both fire launchers held in hands, and the ice ones set to her shoes. Imbued with the soul of Undyne, who threw herself into the Coctycus river after a failed relationship out of jealousy and lament, powering up the flames and the freezing effect of the weapons.)
-Chernobog (+8, 2x damage, 3x damage VS Angels, Demons and Gods, AP (Ignores 3 Toughness even when No AP, Indestructible. This demonic three-bladed scythe imbued with the soul of the God of Death, Chernobog, and has the ability to kill almost any being permanently, including beings that would otherwise benefit from Reconstitute Self or similar abilities. Exclusions to this effect may include higher rank deities, cosmic entities and eldritch abominations.)
-Takemikazuchi (+10, 3x damage, AP, Normal and Stun damage, Can't split stones between multiple targets, Automatically causes collateral damage. This massive hammer is empowered by the energy of the divine sword of Takemikazuchi, the Futsuno-mitama. It is extremely destructive, but also very slow.)
-Chain Chomp (+5, 2x damage, Good Luck +3 to hit targets, Range 1. Must be equipped to one of her legs. The Chain Chomp is not as much a weapon as an intelligent being recovered by Rodin and given to Bayonetta. Since it is sentient, and very eager to bite enemies, it receives a bonus to hit targets when it attacks. During Umbran Climax, it doubles in size and gains +1 to its Wpn.modifier. If Bayonetta hits more than one enemy in one panel, the chain chomp will duplicate itself, creating a clone for every additional foe she hits after the first one, with each creature going after a still living target with an attack of as many stones as Bayonetta's highest Attack that panel -3. If successful, each will also explode in an Area effect 2. Comically enough, the Chain Chomp will also try to bite most creatures that wander too close when it is equipped, although its bite then won't be lethat as much as painful. It will also try to bite any chest or hidden treasure within the length of its chain, detecting them with an Enhanced Vision 10 (Sense treasures), making it excellent to detect them.)
-Odette (A pair of crystal-like demonic blue ice skates, that have the ability to freeze enemies when kicking as +2 (Atk VS Durability to freeze solid) weapons, to skate on solid ground instead of running which increases her Speed by 1 (which leaves a trail of ice crystals behind her), and to move over lava without any damage. When equipped, Bayonetta cannot use her other foot mounted weapons, as they lack the necessary implements to equip them on the skates.)
-Umbran Armor (+6, No AP, No 2x damage Armor; +5 Str, -2 Agl, -2 Spd, +3 Dur, -1 Ref.Dodge, +2 to Leaping, Flight 6. Equipped with two +6, 2x damage, Area attack, Range 5, Causes massive collateral damage miniguns, one on each arm; and +6, 2x damage, AP, Range 4 shotguns on each foot. Pretty much appears as a 10' tall Mecha, but functions as a very powerful armor for simplicity's sake. May be summoned for 2 stones per panel, or for free during Umbran Climax. Amusingly enough, Bayonetta shoves her middle finger into the machine's 'keyhole' to get it started, as a final 'f*** you' to its soon-to-be victims.)
______________________________________________________________
STORY: Cereza, more widely known as Bayonetta, is one of the only surviving members of the Umbran Witches, along with being the child of a Witch and a Lumen Sage, their polar opposites. A complex series of events led her to be sealed away for five centuries, causing her to lose her memory and to unwillingly play her role in a prophecy leading to the awakening of a planet destroying entity known as Jubileus. Luckily, her awakening to her true nature as the legendary 'Left Eye of Darkness', along with the help of her friends (fellow Witch Jeanne, the journalist Luka, underground informant Enzo, and Weaponsmith and Bar Owner Rodin), allowed her to destroy the being in time to save the world.
Later, when something went wrong with one of her summonings, Bayonetta was pushed out of its way by Jeanne to save her life, causing the other Witch's soul to fall into Inferno instead, and driving Bayonetta to descend into it to save her friend's soul. To make a very long story short, she saved Jeanne's soul, and the world again.
But that was a year ago... and this is now.
