Xiē Yīng Luò

"The clashing of swords to determine who is fastest or strongest is comical in its pretension. A drop of poison on the tip of a needle is the art of death's purest expression."

Xiē Yīng Luò (蠍瓔珞, Katsueiraku, "Scorpion Necklace") is a major antagonist in Thunderbolt Fantasy and a minor antagonist in Thunderbolt Fantasy: Bewitching Melody of the West. A member of the Order of The Divine Swarm, she is sent to retrieve the Sorcerous Sword Index from Shāng Bù Huàn. Her specialty is poison and subterfuge.

Abilities

 * Swordsmanship: In combat, Xiē Yīng Luò uses her rapier, Tú Mí Shì (荼蘼螫, Dabiseki, "Thimbleberry Sting"), as a slicing and stabbing weapon. According to Shāng Bù Huàn and Xiào Kuáng Juàn, her sword skills are poor. It is possible that this is due in large part to her lack of confidence when using a sword: she has the training to use the powerful weapons at her disposal, but she prefers to not face an enemy head-on and, instead, rely on her library of poisons to take down her foes.
 * Even while using Qī Shā Tiān Líng (七殺天凌, Nanasatsu Tenryou, "Seven Blasphemous Deaths") and benefitting from the sword's life-sapping abilities, Yīng Luò's lack of confidence gets the better of her and earns her the scorn of Qī Shā Tiān Líng.
 * Creating Poisons
 * Control of Scorpions
 * Poison Mist Storm Technique
