Hmph. Good job catching me. If you hadn't, I would have beat the crap out of you.—Futaba Lily Ramses, to Tachibana Ichiro, Taimanin Asagi Battle Arena
Personality[]
Lily is a confident and strong-willed tsundere from a noble Egyptian clan, carrying herself with a lady-like demeanor. Though she often treats others as commoners, this attitude is primarily directed toward Tachibana Ichirou. She has a high opinion of herself, but her arrogance comes across as more endearing than truly intimidating, especially when she displays her smugness toward Ichirou. While she may appear dizzy or overly expressive in her superiority, her actions are often more playful than serious. As she calls him a commoner or slave.
Lily is well-liked and respected by her classmates. She interacts with them politely, displaying a more refined side. She shares a close friendship and mentorship with Morino Yuuko, whom she admires and wishes to be taught by, while she holds a more antagonistic stance toward Kaya Blanche. She also views Ichirou as a competitor in the apprentice battle, seeing him as a rival. Part of her disdain for Ichirou stems from the attention he receives from Yuuko.
When Lily falls in love with Ichirou, her tsundere nature softens. She becomes more affectionate and possessive, openly seeking intimacy and desiring to be his primary focus. Although she allows other girls to be part of his life, she wants to be regarded as his number one. She might also allow herself to show a more submissive side, willing to call herself a slave but only in bed, if she is angered even in such situations, she still will become violent or sulky if she feels not respected enough.
While much of the story in RPGX has not yet unfolded, she still holds Ichirou very close to her heart and all her "what if" events are with him, being clearly in the same type of releationship of the visual novels.
Appearance[]
Perhaps it is because she is a quarter, but she has a neat face and a style like a model that is far from Japanese.
She has slightly darker skin, blue eyes and blond hair.
History[]

Lily is in the same class as the Tachibana Ichirou and is the chairperson of the "Occult Research Society"-club. Lily is a returnee from Egypt and has been attending Higashisaka Kitano Gakuen since the beginning of the first semester of her second year a few months ago. She has since then become an idol and class president.

Visual Novels[]
While both, were walking together, Lily was tricked to take a cursed item from a disguised Eisen Faust. While Ichirou sneaked around and broke magic barriers around Yuuko's house, Lily encountered him, wishing to put a hex on him just to keep him away, the cursed item she had instead turned Ichirou into a tentacle monster, while still remaining human in mind. With Yuuko now also arriving, she noticed the mind of Ichirou started to slip and both had physical contact to ease the effect, but this also resulted in a bit of an addiction for the witch. Lily, feeling guilty and responsible for anything, would the next days also present herself to ease the effect, and both her and Ichirou started a relationship.
Both look for the vendor, which had given Lily the cursed charm, but it took a while and the condition of Ichirou seems to get worse. Another witch student of Yuuko arrives a bit later, Kaya Blanche, and both her and Lily fight, as Kaya thinks that almost all mages are corrupt and evil, and given Ichirou's current state as a tentacle monster this makes things not easier.
Eisen Faust is revealed as the true villain. Faust wishing to revive his creator "Sorcerer Faust", with the corrupted body of Ichirou and the power of the 3 witches. Regardless of the route, the group of heroes is able to find Eisen Faust, while Lily almost dies in the encounter, Ichirou's body is transformed but overpowers the control spell for his desire to protect Lily and the others. Ichirou is able to awaken to his own power over life and turns Faust into a tree, granting him the eternal life his creator always desired.
After their win, Lily became the self-proclaimed "slave" of Ichirou and his real lover, with Ichirou now cured of his tentacle form.
The games LILITH-IZM 04 Tanned Skin and LILITH-IZM 06 Digital anime with Lily & Lilia: Another Story continue their story further, with Lily's route being the more canon one.
Timeline TABA[]
Tachibana Ichirou and Lily have been transported by a Brain Flayer, to the Taimanin universe. Ichirou had been captured by 12 Angels in his monster form for research, and Lily tried to break into the hideout to break him out. She is assisted by Fuuma Kotaro, that for his own reasons wishes to take down 12 Angels and is at the location at the time. After defeating the 12 Angels, she thanks Kotaro and returns home with her lover.
Another Lily appeared in the TABA universe with Morino Yuuko. They hunted down Guignol Faust which came from their own world and attacked many people in Tokyo Kingdom. With the help of Fuuma Kotaro they disarmed the witch and returned with her and the Brain Flayer that moved them there to their own world.
It is unknown if a version of her also existed in the TABA timeline natively.
Timeline RPGX[]
It is mentioned that Morino Yuuko, tought at Gokou Academy before switching to Higashisaka Kitano Academy to watch over Tachibana Ichiro. Lily, just as in Tentacle and Witches made her way to Nanso Town as an exchange student to study under Yuuko, the current Witch of the Ocean. It is mentioned that she has powers from a demonic bloodline, which had not been explained in the original games.
Like in her own game series, Lily is given a magical scroll and turns Tachibana Ichirou into a tentacle monster by mistake. Lily meets a disguised Eisen Faust appearing as an unknown vendor.
She is given a spell charm, she wished to try out creating a familiar but Eisen Faust cursed the item. Lily again curses Ichiro by mistake, as he spies on Yuuko, near the witches home. While, it is not stated if a lewd interaction occured like in the Visual Novel. Lily wants to cure his body for her mistake, and both are very close already.
Lily now wants to cure him to make up for the mistake, as Ichiro is turned into a tentacle demon at times. However, other than in the VN, the Magicians Association makes its request to keep a close eye on him. Both Lily and Ichiro, now leave Nanso Town, and arrive near Kyoto, in Rokuhara. As an exchange student of Gokou Academy to solve the situation. Both learn Onmyoji Techniques/magic in order to gain more knowledge. Lily refuses to call herself an Onmyoji, as she says her powers come from magic and she just prefers this label. This sometimes leads to her coming into conflict with Kurahashi Hokuto, which believes the term "witch" should only be used for evil demons or evil humans.
Training under her teachers, Shiki Reika, Kamimura Azuma, Kiichi Azusa and Morino Yuuko which has also followed the group, as the headmaster is more hostile towards Ichirou. Her classmates, Kurahashi Hokuto and Tan Youka, sometimes go on missions. Lily herself later travels to Yomihara, to get help with Ichirou and find a cure. Looking for the great witch, Lyuli, she finds her way to the Downtown Detective Agency and gives her a request to find her.
Merriam, just hearing about her search for a great witch, assumes she is meant, until she gets shot down. Lyuli herself arrives, through the window at that time, and attacks Merriam for a personal grudge. After, Lily helps with solving the conflict, she asks Lyuli about the origin of the scroll and a cure, but is only able to learn that the spell was made specifically to turn Tachibana Ichirou into a tentacle demon.
Returning, to Gokou, Lily gets at times annoyed that Ichirou is not thankful enough, which Ichirou counters with it being her fault in the first place. As an information gathering mission, which Morino Yuuko had sent failed and the hired hand "Coolidge" had been captured, a rescue group which includes Lily is sent out. Ichirou that still wants to get minor revenge, follows the group to the demon world with invisibility magic. As Lily and the others are separated, Lily awakes in a bed, dreaming she had been saved by Ichirou, which might also had touched her inappropriately. Leaving, the bedroom, she herself fights the person behind the capture of Coolidge, the witch "Lady of the Ruins". Though, Lily is able to find out the other witches' weakness, she is stabbed by her magic draining blade, and a dust storm separates her from the arriving others. Ichirou does not hesitate, and tackles the Lady, which saves Lilies live before she falls unconscious, thankful. Yuuko herself, kills the witch afterward, and the entire party returns home, having also rescued Coolidge.
In the year 2088, Tachibana Ichiro told Lily he was a fan of Y-kazeX and that she kinda looked like Lily as well, commenting that if she dressed up cute she could be an idol as well. Lily was offended by this and started to watch Y-kazeX out of spite at first refusing to admit they did look kinda similar but became a fan. As Y-kaze made a casting call, to play with her as band members, Lily thought about Ichiro's comments and joined the competition. While, her classmate, Kurahashi Hokuto also arrived with the stage name, Electric Biwa Master and another contestent, Dolores used a remote controlled Golem called Loney Guiltar Heroine, only Lily just used her entire full name Futaba Lily Ramses as her stage name, having not thought of one. The group went on stage but Dolores Golem went out of control and could be stopped by the singing of Y-kazeX and the play of the others. Afterward, Lily noticed a demonic energy or spirit hidden in the audiance, though they were not successful in its capture, Lily does remember having meet it before but could not recall. Afterward, Lily shares her contact information with Yukikaze and Dolores, as they became friends as well.
