Overview |
“¡Por alcanzar la estrella inalcanzable!”
Don Quixote (Hangul: 돈키호테, Don khihothe) is Sinner #3 of Limbus Company's LCB department.
Don Quixote is a rambunctious and steadfast woman with a strong sense of justice. She wants nothing more than to be affiliated with the Fixers she idolizes so heavily to the point of delusion, having earned her own Fixer Identification Number prior to recruitment. Unaware to even herself, it is revealed in the second interlude of Canto 6, that she is a Bloodfiend, being the Second Kindred to the first Bloodfiend.
She will be the focus character of Canto VII: The Dream Ending.
Appearance[]
Don Quixote appears to be a short young woman with bright yellow blonde hair styled in a bob cut and deep, sparkling round hazel eyes. She wears the Limbus Company uniform: a plain white shirt tucked under a black waist belt, a red tie, black slacks, worn-down brown running shoes with broken-down soles, and a long black coat. Her upper body is thoroughly decorated with various Fixer merchandise.
Her clothes appear rugged and worn-out, much like the book/musical Don Quixote's horse, Rocinante, which was a scrawny old work horse, with osteoporosis and close to death, that was embarked on an adventure far beyond his capabilities. In any circumstances, she refuses to remove her shoes, which have undoubtedly become extremely stinky due to her years of wearing them.
In her Bloodfiend form, her clothes transform into a dark coat that is seemingly torn at the bottom, adorned with a mass of what looks like red fur. Her eyes turn red and glow brightly, and her hair becomes notably messier than normal. Finally, she is left barefoot, as Rocinante has been removed. However, the exact details are hard to make out, as the area was shrouded in darkness upon her transformation.
Personality[]
Don Quixote is a naive and quixotic person, with a childish view of how the world works. She consistently talks in an animated, exaggerated manner, and jumps into any situation with enthusiasm, regardless of the death or suffering involved. She notably speaks exclusively in Middle English, seemingly in an attempt to take on a more "knightly" persona.
Don Quixote has an intense sense of justice and desire to protect the weak, as she violated a Taboo in front of K Corp personnel after they forcibly separated a child from his parent and beat a gang member for threatening a pawn shop owner.
Don Quixote is extremely impulsive and has a propensity for violence, remorselessly impaling Ryōshū straight through her head in retribution for killing Ishmael and Heathcliff during an argument they were having. This tendency was shown again in Canto III when she pummeled Sinclair hard enough to splatter blood all over herself, in an attempt to return him to his senses and "for justice." This impulsivity mixed with her insatiable thirst for justice makes it difficult for her to follow orders and often results her endangering her fellow Sinners and disrupting plans (and possibly fail the mission), much to their, or Vergilius' frustration and misery. She, however, appears to avoid any mention of this particular fact whenever possible.[1]
Don Quixote has an affinity for anything Fixer related. She idolizes some of the most famous Fixers, such as the Grass Maiden, Siegfried, and the Red Gaze, though she has an obvious admiration for all of them, as shown in her interactions with the Molar Office Fixers and Nelly. She prides herself on her collection of Fixer merchandise, and knows a large variety of information about Fixers and Associations in general.[2]
In her true form as a Bloodfiend, she is haughty and imperious, exuding an air of aristocratic elegance, with a sense of superiority and entitlement. Her personality is be marked by a dramatic flair, often speaking in a refined, eloquent manner with an underlying tone of condescension. She views herself as a noble protector of lesser beings, seeing others as mere pawns in her grandiose quests, while also perceiving any insolence from her lessers as unacceptable.
Her obsession with chivalry and knighthood is translated into a vampiric code of honor, believing herself to be a guardian of ancient traditions and the true essence of nobility. Despite her haughty demeanor, there is an undeniable charisma to her presence, drawing people in with a mix of allure and intimidation.
However, beneath the grandiosity, there is demonstrated a tragic and delusional aspect to her character, as she clings to outdated ideals and refuses to acknowledge the changing world around her, seeing herself as a timeless figure above the mortals she interacts with.
Weapon[]
Don Quixote wields a massive lance named "SUEÑO IMPOSIBLE" that towers over her, indicating that she is much, much stronger than she initially appears to be. This fact is further supported by her dexterity with such a massive weapon and her effortless ability to pierce a human skull with it at such a short distance.
- As Shi Association South Section 5 Director Don Quixote, she wields a katana.
- As W Corp. L3 Cleanup Agent Don Quixote, she dual wields W Corp-charged daggers.
- As N Corp. Mittelhammer Don Quixote, she wields a massive hammer and an elongated nail.
- As Cinq Association South Section 5 Director Don Quixote, she wields a standard Cinq Association rapier.
- She does not wield a weapon as The Middle Little Sister Don Quixote, but attacks with her fists fitted along the chains to her left shoulder.
- As Lobotomy E.G.O::Lantern Don Quixote, she wields the E.G.O equipment Lantern in its set: Weapon, Suit and Gift.
- As Blade Lineage Salsu Don Quixote, she wields a standard Blade Lineage jikdo.
Background[]
Currently, Don Quixote's origins are unknown. However, the events surrounding her recruitment appear to be distressing, as she fearfully froze up when Vergilius mentioned them. Don Quixote also recognizes Moses' name, although she is unable to recall how or why she knows it, implying a possible connection between her and the Distortion Detective.
Her shoes, Rocinante, act to keep her true Bloodfiend powers and sense of self locked away. This is the primary reason why she refuses to remove her shoes under any circumstances, even after they become extremely dirty, or when entering the Warp Train cryo-preservation capsules. She has worn these shoes, barefoot, for nearly 200 years, as demonstrated by the timeline given by Cassetti. She is a Second Kindred, meaning she was turned by the very first Bloodfiend to exist, and is very high ranking in Bloodfiend society. As a Second Kindred, she possesses a great deal of strength compared to ordinary Bloodfiends, likely far surpassing Elena, The Blood-red Night, a Star of the City. Don Quixote has likely lived an extensive length of time, and how long she lived before her nature as a Bloodfiend was locked away is unknown. Cassetti, who believed that as a Sixth Kindred he was the highest ranking Bloodfiend alive, recognized Don Quixote's true form on sight, meaning that before obtaining Rocinante Don Quixote was a well known and powerful figure amongst fellow Bloodfiends. This development has been heavily foreshadowed throughout Don Quixote's Identities and story content.
Abilities[]
As a Bloodfiend, she is granted numerous abilities, such as the power to manipulate blood, which she uses both offensively and defensively. Don Quixote can use blood to create ethereal banners, flags, or sigils in the air, representing her ideals of chivalry and justice. These manifestations serve to rally allies or demoralize enemies, instilling a sense of purpose or fear depending on her intent. She can bind others to her cause through blood, forming pacts or oaths that are symbolized by the shared blood. These oaths can grant temporary enhancements to those who swear loyalty to her, such as increased strength, speed, or resilience, so long as they remain true to the cause. Unlike Vergilius, her bloody counterpart's more pragmatic and versatile use of blood, Don Quixote focuses on creating weapons that reflect her knightly persona, such as a blood-formed lance, sword, or shield. These weapons are imbued with her unwavering belief in justice, making them particularly effective against those she deems evil or dishonorable. A signature ability is the creation of a massive, ornate lance made of hardened blood, which she wields with great skill. This lance can pierce through multiple enemies, symbolizing her relentless pursuit of her ideals, no matter the cost. In moments of intense emotion, Don Quixote can channel blood to empower herself, increasing her physical abilities such as strength, speed, and durability. This blood empowerment is tied to her sense of righteous fury, growing stronger the more she feels wronged or the more she is determined to protect the innocent. Her ability to control blood is be strongly tied to her emotional state. If her faith in her ideals is shaken or if she experiences doubt, her powers could weaken or become uncontrollable, as seen when she loses Rocinante.
This serves as a clear parallel to Vergilius's awakened E.G.O form, who also gains great capabilities to control and redefine his own blood, and that of his enemies. Where Cassetti, a extremely weak Bloodfiend, uses a spear of crystallized blood, so does Vergilius in his ultimate attacks. Similarly, they both possess the ability to become stronger as they gain additional stacks of a unique status, empowering their various abilities. Even more significant is the deep and underlying similarity of the red eyes that all Bloodfiends universally share, which every Bloodfiend introduced so far, whether in this game or the previous, all share. As such, the reveal that, in the post-credits scene of the latest Intervallo, Vergilius is a Third Kindred, created by Don Quixote's long-time rival, Samson Carrasco, is not necessarily surprising to all players. Even though he does not exist as a direct descendant like Don, he still possesses tremendous power and strength as a partial Bloodfiend.
Trivia[]
- Don Quixote is represented by the 🎠 emoji[3].
- Like all of the Sinners, Don Quixote voiced a "Document Excerpt" Youtube short.
- While the true origins of the first Bloodfiend currently remain a mystery, the Abnormality Nosferatu featured in Library of Ruina is most likely related to this Bloodfiend.
- It is possible that Nosferatu is the first Bloodfiend and was the one who turned Don Quixote into a Bloodfiend, or he could be born out of fears representing both that first Bloodfiend as well as Bloodfiends as a whole. Due to Library of Ruina not having Abnormality codes, it is impossible to know if he is an Original Abnormality or one born out of Fairy Tale stories.
- The text on her lance reads "Sueño Imposible", which means "Impossible dream" in Spanish.
- Its writing during battle changes to "Soñar lo Imposible", meaning "Dreaming the Impossible".
- "Impossible Dream" is a reference to the song in the musical, "Man of La Mancha."
- Her intro quote is also a reference to a line in the "The Impossible Dream" song.
- SUEÑO IMPOSIBLE is estimated to be 2.5 m / 8'2 ft long.
- Don Quixote's running shoes read "Rocinante", referencing the name of her literary counterpart's horse.
- One of her pins (specifically the one at waist level on her jacket) is the symbol of the Purple Tear.
- Don Quixote is one of two Sinners to have a Fixer Identification Number (FID), the other being Ishmael.
- She has 863 dreams, one of which was to sail the Great Lake in U Corp's district. This was fulfilled in Canto V.
