EVE is a member of the 7th Airborne Squad as part of the Eve Defense Force and the main playable protagonist of Stellar Blade. Originating from the off-world Colony where the human race shelters, EVE's arrival on Earth is a disaster. As the 7th Airborne Squad begins its operation to reclaim the planet from the Naytibas, a ferocious surprise attack leaves her unit decimated. With the odds firmly against her survival, EVE is saved by a scavenger named Adam, who guides her into Xion, the last surviving city on Earth. Aided by Adam – and later an engineer named Lily – EVE vows to continue her mission: the complete elimination of the Naytibas. Referred to as "Angel" by Xion's surviving residents, EVE explores the treacherous territory, uncovering more of its surprises with almost every step. And as she does, it becomes apparent that she faces much more than a battle against a formidable enemy force… Her values and everything she has held true to this point are about to be questioned.
