Initiator

For the term, see Cursed Children.

Initiator (イニシエーター Inishiētā) are Cursed Children, individuals with the Gastrea Virus, that are partnered with an individual from the Civil Security Corporation.

Physique
Initiators are all Cursed Children, which subsequently means they are female, but are currently only seen to have pre-pubescent bodies, as the Gastrea Virus that gave rise to them has only existed for 10 years.

Agility
Initiators can outrun extremely fast Gastrea and attacks thrown at them whilst carrying their Promoters on their backs, without losing any energy in the process. Further; when Enju fights with a Gastrea that attacked her with web that glued her to the ground, Enju portrays remarkable speed as she frees herself and kills the Gastrea in mere seconds.

Recovery
As a result of the Gastrea blood in their veins, Initiators can recover their own wounds at an amazing rate. When they do so, smoke covers the wound and, after it clears, the spot appears unharmed.

Animal Abilities
All Initiators carry a particular variation of the Gastrea virus that provides them with a Model. Each Model is named so because of the particular aspect of an animal there fighting capability resembles. For example, Enju Aihara is a Rabbit Model, which mean like a rabbit, the majority of her strength is concentrated in her legs, which is why when engaging in combat she proceeds to make use of kicks. Furthermore, her legs are hardened to the point of being able to break steel as is the case in the fight between her and Kohina Hiruko.
