Red Thryssa

"I may only be an extremely small fragment, but I still remember the day I lost to Enryu. With this power, we will leave the Floor of Death in search of Enryu, in order to repay him for the humiliation of that day."

- Red Thryssa to Urek Mazino

The Red Thryssa (붉은 바리, Bulg-eun Bari) is an extremely small fragment, a remnant of the corpse of the 43rd Floor Administrator that survived after Irregular Enryu killed the Administrator. It has intelligence and consciousness. After Urek Mazino defeated Hell Joe, the soul core of Red Thryssa chose Twenty-Fifth Baam as its new host.

History
Urek Mazino once discovered the Red Thryssa during his last visit to the Floor of Death. At that time it was still weak, however, Urek realised its power had properties similar to that of a Administrator. At first, Mazino wondered what to do with it. Ultimately he decided to hand over that power to a person who would use it properly. Having encountered Hell Joe at one of the holes on his previous trip to the 43rd Floor, Urek deemed Joe to be suitable to use its power, entrusting it to him, thus Hell Joe acquired personal usage of the Red Thryssa's powers. After its defeat at the hands of Urek Mazino and Baam, it appeared as a red orb that went inside Baam. Urek Mazino was surprised that he felt the Red Thryssa inside of Baam.

Appearance and Personality
The Red Thryssa is a lizard-like entity with a primarily light grey body and blood red claws, spines and fangs. While still a juvenile creature it had a small body with a pair of arm-like extensions tipped with a long claw each and a spiny tail. When it was merged with Hell Joe and took control of his body, the Red Thryssa took on the form of a completely blood red version of Joe with all his devilish features more pronounced and the addition of a long spiked tail. After being separated from Hell Joe, the Red Thryssa was larger with a large goat-like head with blood red eyes, a mouth filled with sharp fangs and a pair of long spine-like horns protruding from the sides of its head. It also had four pairs of blood red rib-like spines protruding from either side of its body and a pair of incredibly large wings sprouting from its back.

Red Thryssa came into being from a small part or fragment that had been severed from the corpse remain of the 43rd Floor Administrator. Because it retains all its memories prior to its death at the hands of Enryu, the Red Thryssa is extremely arrogant of its apparent god-like power and former status as a Administrator. It's very sentient, it has its own personality and wills as it forcefully took over and possessed Hell Joe's body.

Ever since the Red Thryssa entered into the body of Twenty-Fifth Baam, it has always remain quiet and never talk.

Powers and Abilities
The Red Thryssa's predatory abilities are so powerful that it can bypass the immortality spell cast on the 43rd Floor, enabling it to paralyze and then absorb the powers of Floor of Death inhabitants once it bites them. It has been likened as the natural enemy of Floor of Death inhabitants.

Red Thryssa Transformation
People who become a host of the Red Thryssa can transform their physical form and body part. The user's body part will turn into claws, horns and jaw.

Host Transformation
Red Thryssa will try to persuade its host in order to gain control and possess the user's body. As shown where the Red Thryssa managed to persuade Hell Joe to becoem its host and grow up within his body and slowly overtake control.
