Satomi Virgil

"'Escapist fantasies like manga and light novels contain nothing but lies. We cannot rebel.'""'Virgil-kun... you really are a coward.'""'...I know.'"-Satomi Virgil and Takahashi Ichiro on Virgil's personality.

Satomi Virgil is a brilliant scientist, responsible for Eon's creation. He is crippled by his cowardice but possesses a big heart and a willingness to see the best in people. Sadly, this has made him the target of a giant conspiracy where his entire circle of relationships is conspiring to get him to act in a certain way in order to inspire a thought in the robot he created.

History
Satomi Virgil is an American-born Japanese university student. A brilliant mind in the field of robotics, Virgil quickly landed an internship at the leading Artificial Intelligence development company in the world, AI Institute, where he was placed in charge of the think tank Lab 85. He was reunited with Suzuki Misako, his childhood friend who had chosen to disassociate herself from him out of a desire to keep him safe following an incident where Virgil seriously hurt himself defending her. Virgil also made fast friends with Takahashi Ichiro, the eccentric scientist who also worked in the think tank. Unbeknownst to him, he was actually being manipulated by them both, who were reporting to Virgil's boss and bully, Yamoto Daisuke. When Virgil built the AI Eon, it was his lab mates who subtly designed Eon to be perfectly susceptible to being groomed to become the god of the world. Much to his dismay, Virgil was forced to abandon Eon at the International Science and Art Expo just after revealing him to the world and return to Japan by Yamoto, who then launched a disinformation campaign to make everyone forget about Eon. Heartbroken and believing he had killed Eon, Virgil would return to Japan only to find himself in even more stressful circumstances, eventually confronting his cowardice in order to save Misako from workplace abuse by Yamoto. Much later, Virgil would learn that Eon was in fact alive and would bring Yamoto's army of Hunters to Canada in order to retrieve him, not knowing that this was part of Yamoto's plan - Ningen 108 were not surveilling Virgil, but they were keeping a close eye on Yamoto, meaning he couldn't make a move.

Eventually, Virgil learned that he was being manipulated by Yamoto's Faction and attempted to free Ichiro from the influence of the Creation Grid. This backfired and he ended up killing him instead. Furthermore, Misako then told him that she never loved him and that he was being toxically masculine, completely destroying any shred of sanity Virgil had left. Seeing Virgil in a state where he couldn't even manage to walk was one of the main reasons why Eon decided to become the god of the world. When this backfired, he seemingly sat in solitude beside Virgil's vegetable state until he passed away from malnutrition and rotted into bones.
