====[[Eidolon|Her Creator]]====
She calls [[Eidolon]] an administrator of the highest order<ref name="II19.z e4">Her creator was an administrator of the highest order, and she had been selected out of a pool of emergency resources.  All of her kind had.  Behemoth had been created to break stasis, Leviathan to take away resources in space and land, forcing communities into conflict as they were made to relocate. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/02/23/infrared-19-z/ Excerpt] from [[Infrared 19.z]]</ref> and uses male pronouns when referring to her creator.<ref name="II19.z e6" /> Eidolon, who has [[Eden]]'s [[List_of_Shards#High_Priest|counterpart shard]] to [[Scion]]'s [[List_of_Shards#The_Administrator_.2F_Queen_Administrator|Queen Administrator]],<ref name="reddAdmin">'''HighSlayerRalton:''' Taylor is Eidolon's 'reflection'.

After [[Scion]] killed [[Eidolon]], she right away started to behave strangely<ref name="28.4 e3" /> such as appearing on the opposite side of the planet from [[Bohu]]<ref name="28.2 eStrangeBehavior2">It was hard to think of the terms that applied to Bohu alone.  Tohu and Bohu were usually referred to as the Twins.<br><br>But Tohu was nowhere to be seen.<br><br>And Bohu had situated herself in the middle of a field.  The ground was only beginning to reshape beneath her, twisting into structures, walls, a maze of stone, soil and grass, of arches and pillars without anything to support.<br><br>She simply loomed, her impossibly long arms hanging at her side, head slightly bowed, her eyes shut.<br><br>The other images showed the same thing from different angles.  One from the other side, then another from directly above, showing the alterations to her surroundings as concentric circles.<br><br>It was daylight.  Going by the times of the photos, she was on the opposite side of the planet, roughly, from the Simurgh.<br><br>“Holy fuck,” Canary murmured.  “Two at once?” - [[Cockroaches 28.2]]</ref> and remaining motionless.<ref name="28.2 eStrangeBehavior1">Defiant scrolled through the images of the Simurgh, floating in the air above the ocean in the middle of the day.  The last one was from just an hour ago, showing her in early evening, utterly still. - [[Cockroaches 28.2]]</ref> [[Valkyrie]] acknowledges her as Eidolon's long-time opponent; two years after his death, a mere mention of the Simurgh's name would agitate his shade.<ref>''The Simurgh'', was the reply.<br><br>Almost instinctively, another spirit deep inside her shifted, agitated.  Eidolon.  David.  The man’s battery was nearly spent, and the cost of replenishing it was high.<br><br>Stirred to life by the mere mention of his long-time opponent. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/10/20 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 9 II]]</ref> According to [[Tattletale]], she has a real love-hate relationship with him: the Simurgh respects him despite going to war against him.<ref name="28.4 e16" />
