Moebius

Moebius is a faction and main antagonistic force of Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

Characteristics
Moebius are Consuls who can take the form of a demonic version of an Ouroboros. In order to survive, Moebius must take life from other s bound by Flame Clocks. A notable characteristic of Moebius are their infinity-shaped Irises. Moebius can also Interlink with another Moebius as seen with O and P. When someone becomes Moebius, they inherit memories of their past lives. Individuals can only be revived as a Moebius once. Once they die, they are considered dead permanently, unlike the Kevesi and Agnian humans and such, most of Moebius are afraid of death. According to N, Moebius is the will of the world.

Story
The first Moebius encountered by the party is D at who was fought off by Noah and Mio who Interlinked for the first time thanks to Guernica's efforts. After his defeat, D projects an infinity symbol in the sky which is seen by K, P and N, marking the party enemies of Moebius before departing.
