Aigis (アイギス) is a divine treasure in the form of a magical set of talking armor, which was originally given as a divine item to one of the people who reincarnated from Japan.

Appearance

Aigis is a tall set of silvery white metal armor with no visible joints, though upon closer inspection he is covered in scratches. It is hollow inside, but from a distance it's often mistaken for an armored knight. Kazuma had noted that Aigis' appearance alone conveys strength and durability.

Personality

Even being genderless, Aigis has a perverted and womanizer personality, as it demands to be dressed by women only, since Aigis enjoys to feel the women's body inside of it. Aigis also has a too high standard, wishing to be worn by not just beautiful, but well-endowed women. Aigis is quite impetuous too, as it was willing to ally to the Devil King's Army as long as Aigis is surrounded by women. On the top of that, its hobby is ranking women.

Aside of being an womanizer, Aigis is also very vulgar and disrespectful, as it minces no word while talking to men or women who aren't its type, like the flat-chested Chris. Aigis is also a scoundrel, since it is willing to lie to convince a woman to dress Aigis without any piece of cloth, plus persistently hits on and sexually harasses the women around it for fun, and makes off-color remarks and brag after being worn by a woman.

Furthermore, as an armor, Aigis is very prideful about his toughness, and prefers to be used by sword-users in a fight. However, although its function is defense, Aigis doesn't like to feel pain.

History

Aigis was worn by a Japanese swordswoman years ago and served her faithfully until the swordswoman died of illness, following which it continually looked for a suitable master. It eventually ended up at the hands of a the corrupt noble Undyne through underhanded means, but when Kazuma and Chris tried to steal it back, even trying to convince it to be stolen on order to find a new master, however, when Chris said only men reincarnate in the Parallel World, Aigis called the security.

Kazuma and Chris eventually returned in order to steal Aigis, that still demands a female master, but since Chris refuses the request, Aigis decided to go on a journey to find its new master, running away from Kazuma, Chris and the Undyne Manor. Aigis, however, was eventually attracted by the Eris Church's Eris' Costume Contest, being captured by Kazuma, with who it watched the contest, even though Aigis still refuses to go with Chris, until she transforms into Eris in the contest stage in order to convince Aigis and prevents the Axis Cult's plans. It eventually went along with Eris, protecting her from the mob who invaded the stage asking for Eris' blessing.

Eris gave Aigis to Mitsurugi, but since he was a man and didn't allowed it to harass his party members, Aigis ran away, pretending to go on a journey, in order to meet woman, eventually going to the Crimson Demon Village. It started to attend the Succubus Lingerie bar, chatting with Kazuma and Nerimaki. Kazuma ended up asking Aigis' help with Yunyun's final trial to become the Village chief, and even with its attempts to be worn by a naked Darkness, Yunyun asked Aigis' help too, that agreed to help her.

They ended up spending the night in the woods, completing the trial. In Yunyun's celebration, Aigis teased Yunyun's father about being worn by Yunyun, who attacked him unsuccessfully. It also made his way to the capital, where Aigis helped Iris against the forces of the Devil King's Daughter after being convinced by Arue, who showed it a photo of her mother in order to show Aigis her "future growth".
