History
Early life unknown. During her time as an active warrior, she was a single-digit, but awakened at some point, and attacked the city of Gonal, leading it to ruins.

Surprise visitor
Amid ruins of Gonal, the Gonal Hunt collapses into chaos, as Ophelia cuts off Clare's legs. She challenges Clare to reattach them as she fights Raki in sword match. With each passing minute, Ophelia increase her skill level, till Lucky is killed.

A young girl appears. Raki warns her away. But she awakens into Former Single-digit. Clare reattaches her legs, but Ophelia throws Raki to Single-digit. She hold down Clare face-down as Raki is about to be eaten. Clare awakens and escapes Ophelia's grip. Clare cuts Lucky free of tentacles. While Ophelia is preoccupied with Single-digit, Clare flees Gonal with Raki.

Ophelia tries to reach Clare, but the Awakened Being catches her and breaks her neck. She thinks Ophelia is dead and casts aside the body. Ophelia springs to life and decapitates the former Single-digit. Shortly before her death, the Awakened call Ophelia a monster.
