Nine of Spades
The Count of Chocula had been missing for years, with government of the land was passed to the Cucumber Baron by the Marchioness Tanthul. She returns in Episode 5, appearing as an elite Moonshot Bandits mercenary for the Baron before turning on and killing him at the behest of the Marchioness and taking his place as her favored vassal. She is of a noble and unholy house blessed by Acheron, one which specializes in crafting forbidden chocolates associates with the sin of Treachery. She and the Marchioness intend to betray and kill each other openly, but to do so they must play around each other to find for themselves and prevent for the other the most aesthetic possible moment to do the deed. Neither is sane enough to have any other priority accelerate this courtship.
She appears in full plate mail, holding a greatsword, with eight more floating in the air around her. She was seen to open combat by stealing initiative points from everyone in the vicinity, followed by "retrocasting" the initiative-stealing spell on her actual turn; She then dropped into a counter-stance which applied Dodge and caused her to teleport at long range to interrupt spellcasts, and to teleport to counterattack physical ranged attacks if they missed. This was followed by dropping the stance and doing a heavy flurry of regular greatsword attacks against the Baron, and then party, and at the end of combat she telegraphed an AoE for a round and dropped powerful chocolate acid over a large radius.
