  "textContent": "Lacrimosa is confirmed as a playable S-Rank character in Neverness to Everness, fighting as a Chaos-element main DPS who stacks Nightmare on enemies through her Frying Pan and Red Jelly attack modules. She is not, however, available on day one of the global launch.\n\n🍅\n\nQuick answer: Yes, Lacrimosa is playable in NTE, but she is not part of the launch roster on April 29, 2026. She is expected to arrive on a limited banner during the first patch cycle, likely as the second or third featured character after Nanally and Hotori.\n\n* * *\n\n### Lacrimosa's role and kit\n\nLacrimosa belongs to the Bureau of Anomaly Control's ETD-4 division and plays as a damage-over-time main DPS. Her core gameplay loop revolves around switching between two attack stances, Tomato Metal (Frying Pan) and Tomato Percussion (Red Jelly), to apply Nightmare stacks and detonate them for burst Chaos damage.\n\nProfile| Detail\n---|---\nRole| Main DPS / DoT\nElement| Chaos\nArc type| Liquid\nRarity| S-Rank\nFaction| Bureau of Anomaly Control (ETD-4)\nEN voice| Baraka May\nJP voice| Maria Naganawa\nBirthdate| June 26\n\n* * *\n\n### When Lacrimosa becomes playable\n\nNeverness to Everness launches globally on April 29, 2026, with Nanally Collins (Spirit) headlining the launch banner. Hotori, the Light-element time-stopper, follows from May 13 to June 3. Lacrimosa is positioned as a limited banner character within the first patch window, expected to arrive after those two pickups.\n\nNo official banner date for Lacrimosa has been confirmed yet. Treat any specific date you see floating around as unverified until Hotta Studio publishes a banner schedule.\n\n* * *\n\n### Skill set summary\n\nSkill| Type| Effect\n---|---|---\nSweet and Sour (Tomato Metal)| Basic Attack| Up to 5 Frying Pan swings dealing Chaos damage; the 2nd attack's projectile can be shattered for an extra explosion.\nSweet and Sour (Tomato Percussion)| Basic Attack| Up to 5 Red Jelly strikes dealing Chaos damage.\nFlavor Variation| Basic Attack| Stance switch via Aim button. Flying kick from Metal, ground slam from Percussion. Determines Ultimate pattern.\nDevilish Inspiration| Basic Attack| Hold-aim that copies an enemy's combat technique, replacing Morning Tomato until forgotten.\nLycopersicum Meteors| Basic Attack| Aerial plunge attack scaling up to 200% based on fall height.\nfff Rest| Critical Riposte| Triggered after Critical Dodge; 6 Chaos hits and Break reduction.\nMorning Tomato| Skill| Throws Esper Ability Constructs, applying Nightmare and combo-ing into the 5th basic.\nDevilish Gift (Redirect)| Skill| Mimics another character's skill using Lacrimosa's stats; she's locked in place but can cancel or swap.\nWorking Day Judgement| Ultimate| Truck slam (10 hits) in Metal stance or Car dismantle (5 hits) in Percussion, applying Nightmare in AoE.\nMicrowake| Support Skill| AoE Chaos hit that triggers her support entry effects.\n\nTwo passives anchor her damage. Tomato Banquet adds 400% ATK extra damage when Discord triggers on a Broken target, and Sleep In grants an additional Morning Tomato cast after five basic attack chains land within a single skill cooldown.\n\n* * *\n\n### Awakening progression\n\nTier| Name| Effect\n---|---|---\nA1| Clock Out Clemency| +50% Nightmare DMG ratio.\nA2| Rise and Shine| +15% damage for 15s when entering via Support Skill.\nA3| Molten Ice Cream| Detonates all stacked Nightmare on the 5th basic hit.\nA4| Almighty Lord of Tomatoes| Nightmare duration extended to 6 seconds.\nA5| Tempered Glass Judgement| Healing no longer removes Nightmare stacks; reduces target Max HP by 200% of one Nightmare instance.\nA6| Morning Spell| Auto-casts Support Skill and triggers Nova/Scorch/Discord cycle when swapped to within 5s of Devilish Gift.\nResonance| The Heart's Drowsy Flames| +1 skill level to Sweet and Sour, Morning Tomato, Devilish Gift, and Working Day Judgement.\n\nNTE's awakening system is flexible. Breakthrough effects are not locked to a single slot, so you can equip a higher-tier awakening option even at a lower breakthrough level and swap them as encounters demand.\n\n* * *\n\n### How to acquire her\n\nLacrimosa will be obtained through NTE's character recruitment dice system. The featured banner uses a 90-pull pity with no off-rate drops, and the soft pity rate-up kicks in from pull 70 if the featured S-Rank has not appeared. Pulling more on a banner also rewards cosmetics like costumes along the way.\n\nHer signature Arc, when revealed, will use a separate Triple Keys currency with an S-Rank guaranteed at 60 pulls and the featured Arc guaranteed at 80 pulls. Arc pity carries over permanently between banners.\n\n📌\n\nNote: Until Hotta Studio publishes Lacrimosa's banner window, plan your saved Annulith and dice around the confirmed Nanally and Hotori runs first.\n\n* * *\n\n### Where to download NTE\n\nIf you're setting up to play before Lacrimosa drops, the game is free-to-play across PC, PS5, iOS, and Android with full cross-platform support. The PC build is roughly 47 GB.\n\nOfficial NTE site\n\nLacrimosa's role is settled. She'll be a Chaos DoT specialist whose damage scales hard with stance management, Nightmare uptime, and her A3 detonation timing. The only open question is exactly which patch slot Perfect World drops her into, and that detail will surface on the official channels when the first post-launch banner schedule is locked in.",
