Double

Infromation

Blood type: All / None Birthday: Unknown Height: Varies Occupation: Nun (as Sister Agatha) Keeper of the Skull Heart Affiliation(s): The Trinity Religion: Trinitism Gender: Unknown Age: Unknown Despite her taking on a female form as a disguise and her combat stance being feminine, her gender is still listed as Unknown on the official site which may be because she's not actually human and as such has no true gender. The nun form that she takes is based on no one in particular; it's just a form she takes to blend in at the cathedral. Double chooses a nun form in order to manipulate people with religion. Double's true form has been long forgotten. But the face in the nun form does have hints of what her original image was.

Personality

Double is an enigmatic character who lacks a distinct motive or will that most of the cast have and rarely emotes. She mostly maintains a stoic demeanor when conversing with someone. However, she has shown bouts of pure rage and hatred when it comes to characters like Squigly (Squigly refuses to obey Marie's orders) and Eliza (Eliza killed Aeon and Venus). Double's encounter with Eliza implies that she has an unspecified connection to Queen Lamia, such as being her avatar or 'shadow'. She has been shown to be a manipulative figure who will do anything to further her agenda and create Skullgirls. Even if she follows their orders, Double will not hesitate to eliminate a Skullgirl should they put The Trinity's plans to a standstill.

Backstory

Though her origins are vague, Double is devoutly loyal to the Trinity, using her shape-shifting powers to support the Trinity's ominous agenda. As such, she is an ally of the Skullgirl, and appears to take steps to ensure the creation of new Skullgirls. Double is capable of transforming her nightmarish form into that of any person, but she often takes on the appearance of a smiling nun. Double can frequently be found in the Grand Cathedral of the Divine Trinity, listening to confessions and tending to the catacombs beneath. She also seems to be connected to a Queen named Lamia who was an old enemy of Eliza.

Story

Fourteen years before the events of the game, Double attended the birthday of Selene Contiello in the disguise of a beautiful socialite, giving her the Skull Heart. But much to her dismay, she realized she would not willingly wish on it and had to take drastic measures. She then notified the Medici Mafia that Squigly's family, the Contiello, possessed the dangerous artifact, undoing decades of accumulated good-will in an instant. As Double expected, the Medici gunned down the entirety of the Contiello family, thereby sending a message to the rest of the world that they were not to be challenged. A few years later, Queen Nancy meets up with Double and makes a wish on the heart to stop the war. After a few more years, Nancy returns to the shapeshifter demanding to know why her wish had not came true. Double reveals it is because her soul is still not pure, as she partially made the wish to spite her husband. She then tells the Queen that all she can do now is except her fate, and become the next Skullgirl. By the time of the game itself, Double is working under the newest Skullgirl Marie, serving as one of her two attendants (alongside Valentine). In her Story Mode, it is revealed that she is responsible for Marie's transformation, taking in the girl when she fled from Rommelgrad and offering her the Skull Heart as a way to fulfill her desires. However, Marie's strong will allowed her to fight against the Skull Heart's influence, delaying the Trinity's plans. Learning of her masters' displeasure, Double began searching for possible replacements for the disobedient Marie. However, she then stumbles upon the Last Hope who engage in a battle against her. After being beaten, she becomes furious and crushes Hallow just to spite them. Later, after Patty and Easter sacrificed themselves when facing the hoard of undead Gigans, Christmas and Valentine come across what seems to be a alive and well Hallow. And while Valentine believes it, Christmas sees through the disguise...

Name

In her current guise as a nun, she goes by the name Agatha, which means "good" and was also the name of a Christian saint. The full name of the nun identity is Agatha Gloomfoil.

Appreance

Double seems to have still been able to shapeshift in this era of her design as in one piece of concept art she is seen taking on a form where she resembled Filia, except Samson's head was where Filia's should be and Filia's was on the back of the skull and appeared very emaciated. If you look closely the Filia mimic design has some of the distinct traits of the humanoid figure's design as she has the same dots on the forehead and the same hairstyle in the middle section of the head. At another point, she was a jumble of distorted pieces from other characters wearing a crown. The crown has a cross on it and may have served as inspiration for her current design having a crown-like head and her being part of a religious affiliation but this could also be coincidental. The “jumbled” design seems to be closer to when the game was starting or going to be made as you can see a shadow of Filia that looks similar, if not exactly, like her current sprite but the part that is meant to represent Ms. Fortune shows her old design. It also shows characteristics of Squigly/Leviathan and Umbrella/Hungern which also implicates it was made at the time when they were still planned to be part of the original main cast. It's Unknown Creature or monster, as if every character was mixed. In literal way. Her human form is a nun. In human form, she is a blonde who wears a nun uniform. Her eyes are always stay closed and she has a slight smile.

Story

After capturing Filia and Cerebella, Double is sent to Anti-Skullgirl Lab 8 in order to destroy their research. Against Marie's wishes, she engages and defeats Peacock, claiming that Marie's old friend has become too great of a threat to their goals. Unbeknownst to Marie, Double captures Peacock, believing her to be another potential candidate. Following the destruction of Lab 8, Double continues her hunt for more candidates, capturing Parasoul, Painwheel, and Ms. Fortune. She then returns to the cathedral, defeats Valentine who she knew would betray her, and confers with her masters about her next move. On their orders, Double descends to the catacombs and confronts Marie, who appears to have realized her alleged servant's intentions. Declaring that the Trinity are tired of Marie's refusal to follow their agenda, and brushing off Marie's pleas for a little more time to finish off the Medici Mafia, Double engages the Skullgirl in a fierce battle.

Voice

Double's voice is monotone and as if it's glitchy. Double can mimic anyone's voice.
