Faust

"Ah.. no way!"

Uh oh! We're missing things in this article. Gregor would be glad if you would help and add the missing information!

Overview

Gallery

The sinner who developed the engine of Mephistopheles, the bus operated by Limbus Company. She claims that there is no one in the City who could rival her library of knowledge and wisdom, and she isn't necessarily wrong. You might find her high and mighty attitude when she allows you to converse with her displeasing, but as seen with how she treats everyone with subtle gestures of arrogance, there is no hope of her parting with it, ever. We recommend simply nodding once and getting over it. Even though she has an unparalleled genius, we can't quite figure out how to use this one. Perhaps you could be the one to find out?

»Es irrt der Mensch, solang er strebt.«

"Man errs, as long as he strives."

Faust (Hangul: 파우스트, Pauseuteu) is designated Sinner #2 of Limbus Company's LCB department.

Faust is an observant and intelligent woman with a highly egotistical and prideful attitude. She was the first to be affiliated with Limbus Company, having spent the time leading up to it recruiting the members of the LCB and developing Mephistopheles.

She will be the focus character of the currently unannounced Canto XII.

Appearance

Faust is a woman of average build with a paler complexion and shoulder-length white hair. She has powder blue eyes along with visible blush on her cheeks.

She wears a beige turtleneck underneath a black leather vest with a large black leather coat resting on her shoulders, reaching her knees where the fabric is torn. She wears a black waist belt with her ID being on the left side. She wears black business pants accompanied by black shoes.

Before the events of Limbus Company, during her recruitmen of the Sinners, Vergilus and Charon, she seemed to have Greyish-brown short hair and wore a brown coat. This appearence of her can be found in-game in the Representation Emitter E.G.O. and during Yi Sang's recruitment in a flashback during Canto IV.

Personality

Faust is a soft-spoken sinner with a sharp tongue, prone to narcissism. She claims to be highly intelligent and appears to have the accomplishments to back up this self-proclamation - such as having developed Mephistopheles, albeit having stolen the blueprints, concepts, and mechanics of the current Mephistopheles from other various now-deceased inventors of T Corp. - but nonetheless comes off a bit arrogant because of this. She expresses absolute faith in her abilities and is calm even in troublesome situations. As one of the more quiet Sinners, Faust appears to simply prefer standing back and watching events unfold. As of recent chapters, she have been having information to divulge in the moment.

It's clear that Faust knows considerably more than she lets on, which is something that everyone around her seems to have already picked up on, including Dante. In Chapter 3, Sinclair leads the other Sinners through a passage under his old house, towards the Golden Bough. When he dully accuses Faust of bringing along the Sinners as sensors for the Boughs, she continues rambling on about the mission at hand rather than elaborating. When asked again by Dante, she tells them she is "simply not in the position to comment on it". Faust expresses a similar attitude regarding anything concerning their life before the clock head.

Under her usual calm, serious attitude, Faust appears to be a bit of a narcissist. In her dialogue for her base LCB Sinner card, she expresses that she always gets up after three hours of sleep (and used to believe that everyone does this), and does not concern herself much with hobbies.

Weapon

Faust's primary weapon during combat is her Zweihander, "WALPURGISNACHT," which is often drawn out on her hand.

• As Lobotomy Corp. Remnant Faust, she wields a red-tinted sword.
• As W Corp. L2 Cleanup Agent Faust, she wields a W Corp-charged glaive.
• As The One Who Grips Faust, she uses both an elongated large nail and electric-charged gauntlets.
• As Zwei Assoc. South Section 4 Faust, she wields a standard Zwei Association Zweihänder.
• As Seven Assoc. South Section 4 Faust, she wields a standard Seven Association longsword.
• As Lobotomy E.G.O::Regret Faust, she wields the E.G.O equipment Regret in its set: Weapon, Suit and Gift.
• As Blade Lineage Salsu Faust, she wields a standard Blade Lineage jikdo.
• As Wuthering Heights Butler Faust, she utilizes a serviette in her arm.

Background

Later on, Faust would go on to be recruited by the Limbus Company to help retrieve the Golden Boughs and find other various peoples of the City that could help achieve the company's goals. To this end, Faust decided to plagiarize not-yet patented blueprints and inventions of various T Corp. inventors for development of Mephistopheles, as well as sending Shi Association fixers to assassinate the T Corp. inventors.

Trivia

• Faust is represented by the 👻 emoji.
• Like all of the Sinners, Faust voiced a "Document Excerpt" Youtube short.
• Faust and her creation, Mephistopheles, share names with the central subjects of Goethe's Faust.
  • However, in Faust, Mephistopheles is the demon with which a disillusioned Faust contracts with, exchanging his soul for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures.
  • This is further reinforced with Mephistopheles being the Limbus Company bus, leading Faust into hell (or, in this case, the inferno.)
• Faust's weapon, Walpurgisnacht, shares its name with an event which occurs in Goethe's Faust, Part One.
  • Walpurgisnacht is the gathering of witches and spirits on April 30th, which Mephistopheles guides Faust to in order to complete his descent into immorality.
• Faust's icon depicts a glass flask bound to a Homunculus. This plays an important role in one of the subplots of Faust Part Two, in which a Homunculus created by Wagner, Faust's assistant, tries to become human during the festival of Walpurgisnacht. However, this fails, and the Homunculus dies as the flask shatters.
• Faust has been noted by some to be have a slightly difference appearance in Leviathan, appearing to have grey hair as opposed to her current white. This may however be simply a lighting difference.
• Faust's voice actor re-recorded the voice for Intervallo II to Canto V following an update at 13th June 2024 due to a vocal pitch lower than intended, making it look as if there are two Voice Actors.
