Code:Emperor

Code:Emperor was the most powerful special power user. He was also one of the founders of Eden. His special power was the Flames of Purgatory.

Appearance
Nobody really knows what Code:Emperor's adult form looks like, besides the three other Founders, who have presumably seen his true form.

Personality
He acts, as his epithet says, like an emperor and expects to be treated that way. He has a short temper, and will burn anyone who opposes him. However, in the Shibuya mansion he showed a soft side to him and even developed a crush on Rui Hachiouji.

He also takes pride whenever Ogami acts cool, as if he's the one who did it, by choosing Ogami as his host.

Background
During the Meiji Era, he, along with Heike and the other founders, created Eden. At some point, he was the founder of Kibou High, which served as a school for power users to be made into soldiers.

When he learned about the power of the negation, he immediately ordered all Rare Kinds to sever their bonds with power users, but both sides were unwilling to leave each other. After many failed attempts of persuasion, he lost his temper and set out to burn all the Rare Kinds. That day became known as December 32.

Story
The Emperor appears for the first time in chapter 86, coming out of Ogami's left arm for the first time. His form at first is that of a blue fireball. However, he doesn't seem to realise the fact that he looks like a fireball and doesn't hesitate to burn Toki and the others when they mention the fact. That's when Prince Rui steps on him, threatening him not to burn the Mansion. When all the Code: Breakers team up against him, he takes the form of a huge blue flame monster, wrapping himself around everyone, terrorizing them, until Ogami stops him. That's when the Emperor realises that the Code: Breakers are important to Ogami and so, he warns him to keep them out of harm's way, since he(Ogami) will be targeted, now that the Emperor has awakened.

After that, the Emperor vows to find everyone's weaknesses and take advantage of the situation. Thus, he enters their rooms at night, trying to discover some of their weaknesses, when he finds a Nyanmaru comic book. At that moment, he shows his sensitive side, as he starts crying due to the comic's content. However, when he accidentally sees his reflection on the switched-off TV, he thinks that it is a ghost and he accidentally falls on the remote controller. The TV turns on and the Emperor sees the "8 Tears" for the first time, instantly falling in love with her.

Immediately after that, he is notified by the tracking flame that he put on Rui, that she is leaving the house, so he decides to follow her and discover her weakness. So along with Sakura, Puppy and Ogami, who follow him, he goes to the concert hall where Rui sings, realising that she is the "8 Tears" and he becomes torn between his revenge and his love for the "8 Tears". Finally, he calls out "You rock!" to Rui, forcing Ogami to make him go back into his hand before the crowd realises he is there.

The next day, he tries to Burn Shibuya, when the latter tries to sell a picture of the Prince sleeping or when he tries to make money out of her singing.

Later that day, he visits the Prince's house along with Ogami, Sakura and Shibuya, finally realising that her weakness is her lost family. So, he decides to use Satan's Blaze to bring back the souls of her dead family members. However, Ogami notes that the soul of her Saechika didn't come back and the Emperor explains that he is not dead. This prompts Rui to kiss him and he becomes very excited almost burning everyone around him by accident. He is also, once again torn between revenge and love, finally stating that he will postpone his revenge on Prince. He is later seen coming out of Ogami's arm during his fight with Haruto, telling him to pass his own judgement and not a judgement under the law or the name of Code:Breaker and that if he fails, the Emperor will burn him. After Ogami passed his judgement by using the "Flame of Rebuke" the Emperor notes that he has finally learnt to deal a smart judgement.

In chapter 94, while standing in front of the destroyed Shibuya Mansion, he mocks Shibuya's words that the other Code:Breakers were forced to destroy it, thus earning him a hit from Shibuya.

In chapter 95, after the Prince declares her allegiance to Ogami, the Emperor is once again moved to tears, admiring the fact that "his" 8 Tears has refused the order of Eden. Later, during Ogami's and Prince's fight with Saechika, he urges the former to do something, because he is already at his limit, since they are connected.

In chapter 103, Code:Emperor appears in a form of a small boy. Since he is just a residual of soul, that form is the best he can do. He appeared again in the kid form in chapter 106.

In chapter 109, it is shown that Code:Emperor starts to remember Heike. He recognised Heike, and remembered that he was one of the people, along with Heike to build Eden. He couldn't recognise Heike earlier because of his previous flame form. In chapter 110 and 111, we are told that Code:Emperor, Heike, and Sakura's real mother founded Eden. In chapter 134, he supposedly gave himself to save Ogami from Toki's attack, although he reappeared to show that he wasn't dead. Indeed, once Ogami's Seven Flames go out of control after he defeats "Reggae Four-Eyes", Code:Emperor reappears and subdues them.

Flames of Purgatory
Code:Emperor uses the Flames of Purgatory. He seems to be the "original owner" of the Seven Flames, and his descendants are capable of using some of the Seven Flames; Ogami is unique in that he was able to use all seven as a child.
