Like the other two members of The Carnival, Gamma is a tall figure dressed in a wide grey robe with an expressionless white face mask. As depicted in its character portrait, Gamma's chest area is filled with eight bloodied claws resembling mandibles surrounding a gaping "mouth", all vertically arranged. Gamma's head can also split into two. A number of clawed mechanical legs also appear from under Gamma's robe.
Personality
Gamma appears to be the most inquisitive and cautious of The Carnival trio. Gamma possesses a male voice which sounds the least mechanical of the trio.
Story
Background
Gamma, like Alpha and Beta, is a Tailor who utilizes a Singularity stolen from a now-defunct Wing to consume people and turn them into silk with which resilient, high-quality fabric can be woven. Though they previously operated freelance, the trio have recently been presented a Prescript from The Index to eat 15 Sweepers and turn them into silk, and have been forced to comply.
The Carnival
Gamma is seen alongside Alpha and Beta, ripping apart and consuming a Sweeper. Like Beta, Gamma is unhappy with the Sweeper's taste, and they banter about their current displeasure and their memories of an unfortunate Fixer who they previously consumed. Gamma also questions their plans for the future in case they receive retaliation from the Sweepers. When Yan arrives with a new Prescript for the trio, Gamma follows the Messenger's explanation about the Prescripts. After their visitors all leave, Gamma enters the Library with the others.
In the Library, Gamma points out its hunger and goes on to agree first with Beta, who asks about eating Angela, and then with Alpha, indicating that Angela does not seem human.
Eventually, Gamma, alongside the rest of The Carnival, dies in their Reception, and is turned into the Book of The Carnival which may contain their Key Page.
Key Page story
The Carnival’s Page
There are many important things to consider as a Fixer, and attire is one of them. A Fixer’s attire is the most effective way to signify the image of an Office. It’s important for an Office to show that it has formality and class; most Offices have set a dress code for that reason.
As much as it’s necessary to choose the right attire according to the code, the most important factor is the fabric that clothing is made of. Quality fabric can offer better protection, lighten the wearer’s weight for quicker movement, or allow the wearer to carry heavy weapons as large as their body. Those who create and provide such fabric are called ‘Tailors’.
We are Tailors who consume people and make silk out of them. Whether it’s melting people inside our belly and congealing them in a mold, or it’s unraveling humans into the thread they’re really made of, the fundamentals do not matter. This technology doesn’t originally belong to us. We merely took hold of a technology that came off patent when a Wing was broken. The only thing that matters is that silk made from humans has strength that differentiates it from ordinary thread. Only those who crave it visit us.
Cloth weaved from human silk possesses various powers depending on the human’s strengths. Some humans may have a strong body, another may be fragile but wise, and yet another may flaunt incredible speed. Since the silk reflects the characteristics of the human it was made from, there are as many forms and powers of cloth as there are humans in this world. Therefore, there is more to being a Tailor than simply weaving silk carefully. Picking the right people to meet the demands of the client is the most important. Hastily making silk out of a human that looks courageous on the outside might end up yielding useless cloth that does nothing but bolster courage, so one must be careful with picking the right material.
Not every piece of fabric is accessible, however. It takes more than cash to purchase high-class fabric; one must earn the favor of Tailors first and foremost. Many Tailors will only give their best fabric once the trust between them and their client has been established after complex turns of events.
Because of that, Tailors who make high-quality fabric usually belong to an organization and create cloth exclusively for them. But we were different. Until the Index gave us a Prescript, we did our work without taking orders from anyone, unchained to any Syndicate or other organization. We were free, as some may call it.
