Personality: As a result of his demonic nature and the strong residual feelings of the fallen magical girl clashing against one another, Nero has a stoic personality, but tends to lean towards good deeds wherever he can. He does, however, have a violent nature and reasonably short temper, and is known to lash out should he be pushed too far. He doesn't care much for the opinions of others, especially pertaining to his true nature, but values Susan Nakamura's views due to the hero-worship of the girl who's spiritstone he was formed from.

During battle, his demonic side is more evident as he is ruthless and aggressive, and if he is not careful he can succumb to slight bloodlust, which can make him more reckless and act without regard to the consequences.

Bio: 22 years ago, a magical girl fell to demons and her spiritstone wasn't purified in time. From the stone, Naerious was born. His demonic nature urged him to consume and destroy, yet the strong feelings of that fallen magical girl echoed through her spiritstone and urged him to protect and fight off the demons. Angry and confused, he did answered both sides of his conflicting nature by preying on and consuming other demons, growing in power and avoiding conflict with the magical girls all across Japan. He spent the next 18 years gaining power, until his instincts finally grew into competent sentience. A memory formed in his mind from the fallen magical girl, an older girl she idolised named Susan Nakamura, and began to search the country until he finally located HeartShine Academy. Disabling the first few girls to attack him, he asked for Susan by name. When he finally spoke her, he was barely able to convince her of his good and agreed to join HeartShine a year later, when she took up her role as Headmistress.
