Chain Sumeragi (チェイン・皇・すめらぎ, Chein Sumeragi), is an Invisible Werewolf and a member of the Werewolf Bureau that was assigned to Libra. She does a large amount of Libra's reconnaissance work. Her power is erasing her presence, which needs a link to connect her to the world in order to counter the effect of her ability or she will cease to exist.
She is voiced by Seiko Yoshida in the vcomic, Yuu Kobayashi in the anime, and Trina Nishimura in the English dub. She is portrayed by Shizune Nagao in the stage play/
Appearance[]
Chain is a young Japanese woman with chin-length black hair and dark purple eyes. She is seen clad in a black suit with a white shirt underneath it, black pants and shoes.
After the events of B3P Chapter 5, Chain has a small patch of white hair on the left side of her head, a side effect from when she was in the splash zone of Steven's Esmerelda Blood Freeze Style.
Personality[]
In general, Chain almost always presents herself as a responsible and reserved character, however, she has a small sadistic streak, since whenever possible she starts, for no apparent reason, a fight or an argument with Zapp Renfro, in addition to provoking him in various ways, most of which involve causing him some pain or injury; nevertheless, she does show some protectiveness towards her friends, as shown when she refused to give her friend Angelica's phone number to Zapp who kept pestering her.
While she shows Leo and Zapp little respect (the two often being the ones she steps on - though in Leo's case she never causes him much physical harm in stark contrast to the daily amount of pain she inflicts on Zapp), she seems to care for Leo as she is the one that has helped him on two separate occasions and following him to ensure he was alright, implying she cares for him like a younger brother. She also has feelings for Steven which he is oblivious to. In fact, her link to the world is her attachment to her apartment and Steven.

Powers and Abilities[]
Skillset[]
- Espionage: As both an espionage artist and a member of the Werewolf Bureau, Chain is extremely skilled in information gathering, interrogation and hacking. She is a remarkably skilled fighter, even among werewolves, being able to defeat an opponent alone even when four of her werewolf allies were unable to.
Unique Abilities[]
- Spatial Manipulation: While known as an Invisible Werewolf, Chain isn't so much turning invisible as she is manipulating reality around her to her presence. This ability allows her to pass through walls, defy gravity to an extent, and even erase her own causality. The only way to counter this effect is through her personal cypher, a link or chain that she wishes to return to.
- Patient Case (症例 Shōrei?):
- Heart Attack (心臓発作 Shinzōhossa?): Chain digs into her opponents chest and squeezes the life out of their physical heart.
- Existence Dilute (存在希釈 Egujisutinsu Dirūto?): Chain uses her invisibility to the highest degree, which seemingly makes her non-existent. This technique was used on Velved Rheinkeimer.
Weaknesses[]
- Potential Causality Erasure: While Chain's Existence Dilute ability makes her an invaluable asset as an intelligence agent, she will literally cease to exist if she dilutes her existence too much. The only way to counter this effect is through her personal cypher, a link to the world that she wishes to return to. In Chain's case, her cypher involves having Steven A. Starphase visiting her apartment.
Equipment[]
- Pistols: In combat, Chain typically uses dual-wields pistols, though it is implied that she and most of the Bureau's agents are poor shots.
Creation and Development[]

Trivia[]
