Consul N

N is an antagonist in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. Unlike the other Consuls, he doesn't wear the red attire. He bares a striking resemblance to Noah and the leader of Kevesi Consuls.

Appearance and personality
N's appearance and hairstyle is identical to Noah albeit without his hair tied in a pony tail. Unlike the other Consuls, N wears full golden armor with red lines with a red X on his chest as well as a golden mask to conceal his face. N doesn't battle in his Moebius form unlike the other Consuls, preferring to fight in his humanoid form. In combat, he uses a dark version of Noah's sword.

Story arc
N is first seen observing the infinity symbol that D projects into the sky after his scuffle with party.

N is later seen alongside M seen during a meeting with his fellow Consuls, reminding D that his encounter with the party is fate. He then sends K after the party.

N is then seen watching the party's progression at the Amphitheater with Z and his fellow Consuls, with Z notifying them that the Eclipse is approaching.

N then observes a battle between Kevesi and Agnian forces on the theater screen while two Consuls plays what appears to be the Aionios version of chess before being sent off by to Keves Castle.

N then visits Cammuravi in the prisons of Agnus Castle, addressing him by his full title "Smouldering Cammuravi" before his eye glows the infinity symbol.

When Ethel reports in to the Queen of Keves, N was standing besides her, before demonstrating the power of the Annihilator weapon (which harnesses the power of the Annihilation Effect) on the Urayan Mountains, aweing Ethel with N revealing that the weapon can be used anywhere, before the Queen decides to target Colony 4 with the Annihilator, much to Ethel and Bolearis' protests, with N stating that they were freed from their Flame Clock. N then blackmails Ethel into killing the party, sending Cammuravi alongside her in her mission as well as new Ferronises (which is tied to both of their lives) made specifically to combat the party, much to her shock, with N saying that it is "entertainment", saying that forcing her rebirth is not fun to him.

When O and P reports to N at the Castle who was observing the flight of Bolearis, they express worry that he'll report to the party, N is not worried about that, confident that they'll come to him as it is the party's nature.

After O, and P's deaths, D, J, and N are seen looking outside a window of Keves Castle, J wondering if the party will come, which N confirms. D then mocks J if he's gonna give them a hug, saying he wants out. N then explains he wants to show the Queen how hope dies, further explaining that she occupies the same existence that Moebius does.
