Babit
Babit, the Incarnation of Love and Lust, is a constellation who turns love, hatred, regret, obsession, and embarrassment into quests. Babit tests Kim Gong-ja through a romantic confrontation, then accepts him as a temporary follower and supports the campaign against the Magic Tower.
Biography
The heart of the Grand Campaign
Babit joins the constellations evaluating Gong-ja's claim to be the Sword Emperor's successor. A blonde female apostle invokes Babit's power, colors the surroundings pink, and challenges him to make her heart flutter before she captures his. Gong-ja's commitment to Raviel prevents the intended seduction and reverses the test; Babit then recognizes him as a temporary follower. The constellation's main quest asks him to tear open the Magic Tower elder's buried emotions and orders every follower to support him, treating love, hatred, or bittersweet attachment as equally valid proof that the elder's heart still moves. (Chapters 291–300)
During the uprising, Babit's followers fight despite admitting that combat is not their specialty. Babit becomes troubled when the elder attacks the narrative behind the quest, but the alliance succeeds and the constellation acknowledges its completion. Babit later offers Gong-ja a full apostleship and remains an active observer among the constellations rather than punishing him for retaining other loyalties. (Chapters 301–313, 324, and 334)
Appearance and personality
Babit does not display a confirmed personal body in the supplied corpus. The fresh-blonde girl in a red cloak is an apostle whose expression and posture change under Babit's romantic power, not Babit themself. The constellation's quest language is theatrical, playful, and melodramatic, but its interest extends beyond pleasant romance to hatred, regret, and emotional rupture—any bond intense enough to expose what a person has concealed. (Chapters 299–300)
Abilities and skills
Babit issues emotionally framed quests, recognizes temporary followers, empowers apostles, and can impose Pink Romantic Comedy through an apostle. Within the demonstrated five-meter field, circumstance draws people physically and psychologically closer and turns accidents into romantic-comedy encounters. It does not guarantee love: Gong-ja's existing bond gives him a stronger answer to the test. Babit's quest authority can also mobilize followers around an emotional objective even when their combat talent is limited. (Chapters 298–304)
The elder-heart quest demonstrates the breadth and limitation of Babit's domain. The desired result may be love, hatred, regret, or another painful attachment, so the power concerns emotional intensity more than a single romance formula. Babit still depends on participants and circumstances capable of producing that response; when the public premise of Gong-ja's role is challenged, the constellation cannot simply declare the emotional narrative true without evidence. (Chapters 300 and 304–313)
