๐Ÿƒ Rei & Joker

Reflections of Rebellion

Two minds from different worlds.
Two hearts that rejected false comfort.
When Rei Reltroner, the Astralis Architect, met Joker, the Phantom Trickster, the universe witnessed a bond beyond illusion.


๐ŸŒŒ Origins of Friendship

  • Location: Between realities โ€” Twilight Terminal
  • First encounter: A clash of philosophies
  • What formed the bond?
    They both knew what it meant to rebel โ€” not just against a system, but against the illusion of ease and conformity.

โ€œI donโ€™t just see through the lie,โ€ Rei said, โ€œI destroy it.โ€
โ€œThen weโ€™re the same,โ€ Joker replied with a smirk. โ€œLetโ€™s rewrite the script.โ€


๐ŸŽฎ Dynamic in Combat

  • Rei focuses on zoning, disruption, and red pill energy
  • Joker excels in fast combos, stealth, and all-out Persona assault
  • Together: a strategic vs stylish harmony that breaks opponents apart

โœจ Signature Duo Techniques

  • Red Phantom Blitz โ€“ Joker launches enemies while Rei fires Astralis Pulse through the opening
  • Comfort Breaker โ€“ Joker distracts foes, Rei activates a mini Ritual that purifies the area
  • Double Final Smash (in special mode) โ€“ Joker triggers Metaverse Lockdown as Rei warps them to the Astralis Realm

๐ŸŽด Relationship Highlights

  • Joker teaches Rei how to smirk before a fight
  • Rei teaches Joker how to see through emotional illusion
  • They both sit in silence sometimes... and thatโ€™s enough
