Appearance and personality
The Queen of Keves wears a black and white mask, silver hair that reaches her tailbone with curls and small wings on her head. The Queen wears a long black dress with blue feather decorations.

The Queen is ruthless, determined to destroy Ouroboros at all costs believing them to be a danger to Aionios. She's willing to kill her own people, as seen when she attacked the Kevesi soldiers, Noah, Eunie, and Lanz as well as her Agnian enemies Mio, Taion, and Sena in the Throne Room. She is even willing to destroy her own colonies as seen when she threatens Ethel with the destruction of Colony 4, via the Annihilator.

Story arc
The Queen is first seen in a Homecoming of a soldier in a flashback.

She is later seen recieving a report about the destruction of Colony 4's Flame Clock from Consul I, prompting her to deploy her underlings to destroy the party.

The Queen is later seen alongside Consul N when Ethel and Bolearis report in from Colony 4. N demonstrates the power of the Annihilator on the Urayan Mountains to the Commander before the Queen decides to target Colony 4 with the weapon, knowing that she's been freed from its Flame Clock.

When the party ends up in the Throne Room while trying to escape Keves Castle, The Queen descends to the Throne Room, while N personally confronts the party. The Queen accuses the party of trying to bring ruin to Aionios for being Ouroboros, by destroying Colony Flame Clocks, and treason, before sentencing the party to death.

When the Queen erects a barrier, the party is unable to harm her, prompting Noah to considering drawing Lucky Seven, before being stopped by Lanz. Just as the Queen was about the finish the party off, she malfunctions and her mask comes off, revealing that she was nothing more than a mechanical imposter. While the party is shocked by the revelation, N laughed, "talking" to the real Queen that she hasn't given up hope. As N was about to engage the party, he cast asides the machine and draws his Blade. Just as he was about to fight the party, the Lost Numbers made their move, seizing the many Cradles that were being housed there, allowing the party use the ensuing chaos to escape.

After the party reaches the City, reveals that both Queens are imposters and that the real Queen is sleeping somewhere else.

After Nia's awakening at the Cloudkeep, she reveals to the party that the real Queen is held prisoner within Origin.

The fake Queen is seen one more time during Side Story: Noah, attempting to attack the party again when they returned to the Throne Room, only for Crys to destroy her again.

It was revealed to Noah and the party that the "Queen" was nothing more than a mechanical imposter imitating the real Queen. Behind the mask is a mechanical, skull-like face with glowing violet eyes.
