{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|}} | {{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|Shamash possesses a cane whip and circle Sacred Artifact that signifies a solar orbit and is the embodiment of the idea "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth." When activated, it has the power to circumvent all physical and metaphysical obstacles to reach Infinity. When used on a subject that isn't classified by the world as having questionably verifiable existence, it shines a light on all crimes they have committed. It can also be said to recreate and inflict the pain caused by these crimes onto the subject as a way of using materials to form a judicial decision. Anyone judged by Shamash will receive a fair and commensurate punishment in accordance to their crimes. The criminal underworld fears him as the Mysterious Revenge Contractor, and many reluctantly seek him out. Shamash has given private lessons to promising athletes on workout routines and doing legal checks of professional contracts. That said, there are times when he identifies too strongly with direct emotions and gets pulled in by it, so some keep their distance from him for that. On the other hand, he tends to get on well with people who find the burden of carrying All things too heavy and those who accept all of their sins.}} | ||
