Bacilio

"“Wings of crimson, flow of flames! Bacilio, forward!” ―Bacilio"Bacilio (バシリオ) is an original character introduced in Anime Complex: Cross Arena 2020 and one of the three main characters of the game's Magical World Saga, along with Shinazuma and Cramagix, all who form with him the group of "Crazy Magix Three". Bacilio was previously a human named Shinichirou Hatsushiba (初芝 真一郎) who died tragically before being reincarnated in the world of Aima as a shapeshifting Abratross. However, he has no memory of his previous life as a human.

Appearance
As an Abratross, Bacilio has the form of a red bird with green eyes, red wing armor with golden trimmings, massive wings with yellow and green feathers at each end and two long flowing rainbow-colored tails. In his humanoid form, he takes the appearance of a young tall handsome man wearing red and gold armor.

Personality
Bacilio is a serious person who takes matters with great concern. He is compassionate to his friends and merciless against his enemies. He has zero tolerance whatsoever with people who are willing to do heinous things just to get what they want. He is also hot-blooded, which fits his motif as a flaming phoenix warrior.

A Bad Time
He was a human who had a decent life as a president of a school baseball club. However, during a summer camp trip in an isolated island, things went wrong when a civil war between students broke out, forcing male teachers to evacuate and attempt to call for help but never returned due to a shipwreck. This forced the students in the island to take drastic measures with dwindling supplies. Shinchi was soon betrayed by his own schoolmates from the Survival Games Club and publicly executed in front of his girlfriend Yuuki Mochizuki, by being thrown alive from a ravine into the sea.

Reincarnation
After his death, his soul and Yoshiyuki's encountered the consciousness of a mysterious magical world of Aima and they were chosen to be reincarnated into more powerful creatures, because they were seen as two of the only few good people in their cruel world willing to stand up against their own peers. Afterwards, Shinchi was reborn as a magical phoenix named Bacilio without any recollection of his past life whatsoever.

Cross Arena 2020: The Magical World Saga
When the energies of the Crossgate opened the gateway between Earth and Aima, Bacilio and Cramagix would be involved in the conflict that is to come.

Trivia

 * Like Shinazuma and Cramagix, Bacilio's magical animal motif as a red phoenix is based on the four legendary beast deities of Chinese astrology, with Bacilio's being based on the Vermilion Bird of the South.
