Editing Toaru Majutsu no Index:Item Prologue (section)

===Between the Lines 1===

(Note: The following is only saved in and managed by this undisclosed independent archive kept separate from the Bank. For many criminals, their information is disclosed here to admit to their secret links with the city’s leaders and to provide a sign of their trust. Generally speaking, the dark side dislikes being told what to do, but they are aware of the many hidden attempts to take control of the city’s darkness and are willing to perform the daily work to preserve the darkness.

This data will be kept secret even if it means taking a life. In other words, handle it with care. It does not matter if you are directly responsible or not. It could be a simple error or a cyber-attack by someone else. If the information leaks out, know that you have killed whoever illegitimately accessed it.)


Mugino Shizuri.

Level 5 Meltdowner.

One of the seven current Level 5s. By firing electrons in a state that is neither a particle nor a wave, her power creates a strong resistance that applies massive heat and friction to the target and forcibly burns through it. As a weapon, this power is classified as a high-speed particle-wave cannon. By its nature, this power is expected to have a wide-variety of research applications, including new weapons development, proof of zero-dimensional matter, and non-laser nuclear fusion reactors. Her power has the highly unique property of manipulating the state of an electron no matter who is observing it, which could have applications in a new type of quantum computer, quantum cryptography, highly flexible AI development, and next-generation high-volume high-speed communications. (Note: Some results of this research have begun to be incorporated into the Aneri Project, among others. See separate entry for details.)

There is a risk of mutual interference with the Railgun, another electric Level 5. Be cognizant of this when designing their research facilities.


Takitsubo Rikou.

Level 4 AIM Stalker.

Her power accurately records and saves the AIM Diffusion Field weakly emitted subconsciously by an esper so she can track it. Once she has recorded it, there are no distance limitations on tracking it, so she can accurately track it even if they flee the solar system. However, this recording and searching of AIM Diffusion Fields requires the oral consumption of a special powder known as Body Crystal, which has high production costs and powerful side effects. (Note: Further details on Body Crystal cannot be viewed without an authorization key from 1 Board of Directors member.)

Even when not using Body Crystal, she makes comments which suggest she is receiving something (e.g., “I detect a signal from the south-southwest”), but what this means is entirely unknown. It isn’t known if this premonition or sixth sense comes from her power or if she is subconsciously detecting something based on her experience.

Also, there are still many unsolved mysteries regarding her AIM Stalker power. Data on it is protected unusually strictly for a Level 4 and there are signs that her Bank data is incomplete. This could be related to that project the entire Board of Directors is (Note: The rest of this entry cannot be viewed without an authorization key from 6 Board of Directors members.)


Frenda Seivelun.

Level 0.

She has no esper power, but she excels at using a variety of explosives (albeit without any licensing or authorization) and she knows how to fight hand-to-hand. But since her combat style appears unique, it is likely something she learned on-the-job in order to survive in the dark side as a Level 0.

Her knowledge of explosives, and of chemical synthesis as a whole, is on par with a university professor. The lack of obvious burns and scarring on her body suggests this knowledge was not obtained through self-taught trial-and-error, but it is unknown who taught her. She has too many friends and acquaintances to make a determination.

Because she has an unusually wide range of friends and wants for nothing in her life, it is unclear why she has chosen to place herself in the dark side. For a time, it was suspected she was an undercover agent for Judgment or an online news site who was given the necessary chemistry knowledge with a Testament, but that theory has since been disproven. Which leaves her as even more of an enigma. If the cumulative points against her ever exceed 10, form an investigation team to look into it.

Kinuhata Saiai.

Level 4 Offense Armor.

Her power controls the nitrogen in the air to surround her body with a layer of ultra-compressed gas as a solid defense or to artificially boost her strength. The defense in particular will automatically react even to surprise attacks from her blind spots. It is also sturdy enough to leave her entirely unscathed from a shotgun blast at point-blank range. She is a close-quarters specialist, but her specs are so high the outcome of the battle is mostly determined by whether or not she can limit the battle to close range.

She was also a subject of the Dark May Project, meaning a portion of #1 Accelerator’s thought patterns were transplanted into her mind. (Note: See separate entry for project details.) The way her Offense Armor automatically activates to protect her comes from the successful adoption of an inferior version of the reflection equations the #1 loves to use. Related to this, there are reports of her manner of speech changing when she is excited.
