{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|A Transient belonging to Akihabara Academy where the Creators meet. He is always hanging his head in shame and covering his eyes with his hair, but it seems that this is out of fear of meeting eyes with anyone. As a result he's become an otaku-spirited cosplayer that adores things in 2D that can't look back at him. Catoblepas has a perfectly proportioned body that would get him scouted from his main job as a model, but since he doesn't realize this himself he usually wears off-sized clothing and dresses like a mess. If his eyes are ever unhidden, everyone would surely look into them. His cosplayer handle is Catoble, though sometimes he's called Catoble-san. It seems he's recently made a friend he can enjoy cosplaying with. He feels evasive towards people who seal away refuges and allow no escape.}}

{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|Catoblepas possesses an evil eye Sacred Artifact. It has the power to force people to look into it and nail them to where they stand. He fears harming anyone with this ability, so he is always hanging his head and looking down. However, he has seen that the Creators in Tokyo aren't afraid of that. They'd look anyone in the eyes and aren't afraid of harming anyone. What if he could make a work like that? What if he could become a work like that? Those are the thoughts that spurred him into cosplaying. His physique makes turning around in itself difficult, so his movements are slow and he often trips up. He feels familiarity for those who adore Creators as well.}}

{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|This time, the summer cosplay character Catoblepas has chosen is a protector near the water AKA a lifeguard. The red he wears is meant to raise the danger awareness of beachcoming visiters. When Catoblepas tries out something to cosplay, it's only natural that he makes no concessions over the clothes designs, the cloth, the sewing, and the posing. But given the role he's picked this time, he's taking care not to bring shame to those who save lives. Catoblepas has made full use of the interlayered information network and ask for instruction from an active duty high school lifeguard who attends Toyosu Academy. That attitude at least is already that of a proper Creator. By gathering experience over the summer, Catoblepas's work becomes ever more appealing and evolves by the day. And he hopes that the thoughts and feelings he put into this presentation will reach someone someday.}}
