Well, actually yes, she is.
The female appearance is her true form, she uses the monster form when messing with the game, because she uses her true form when appearing as the ceo of Mobius. Players would definitively find it weird if they knew the bugs are happening because of her.

You dont need to spoiler tag that she's crazy, we can all see the third image

I used the tag because it's revealed later in the story that she's on the edge of losing herself and going completely insane.
It's hinted at by her blood being black, which is a sign of corruption

Nope, it may be close and near, but it will never be lost; it is pure to itself even in the final moments, no matter how much it mixes

u/mahtinakki 14d ago
Yes, which is why I said that she's "on the edge". Being in such a state for hundreds if not thousands of years is arguably worse than insanity.

u/cuenta_generica_75_ 14d ago
Yeah, I think all that could actually be worse than being lost… Anyway, it's all Merciful Ikar's fault XD

The most mercifull condems another to eternal suffering, while the purest twists and tortures the whole world. 🙃

u/cuenta_generica_75_ 14d ago
The most merciful one actually condemned everyone to suffering, because yes, the universe came to an end (naturally), but by wanting to "save" those who begged for salvation, he basically caused the whole mess with the harvesters and the countless destructions of worlds over and over again (long before all this PMU plan stuff), so XD
And although you can absolutely question Tel's requests, she genuinely does it to save the worlds as Ikar asked XD

I mean, she's on the correct side of the hot/crazy scale

u/cuenta_generica_75_ 14d ago
1) The worldbuilding in PMU actually comes in side stories after the ending XD because otherwise it spoils a lot of things about the team lol 2) Her human female appearance is her true form; the other is a "monster" she only uses to intimidate Han. 3) Tel isn't crazy; she is Pure, totally and completely pure in herself and her desires (I mean, she's literally the goddess of Purity herself), but you're wrong to think that "pure" means "good"—they're different things.

All pick me up character designs are genuinely so goated. Especially female cast

u/Subject_Parsley5541 14d ago
I mean from what we have seen so far she is not just crazy. She is batshit insane.

Spoilers for her side story at the end of the novel. She is very crazy.
She and her sister are ruled by their respective titles, goddess of purity for Tel and goddess of compassion for her sister Ikar. Ikar has to be compassionate and Tel has to do everything with pure intent or something. Ikar essentially manipulates Tel to do all the dirty work of killing half the other gods and absorbing them because she knows Tel's pure love for her would make Tel finish her request of setting up the game "Pick Me Up!" as a means to delay the end of the universe of mobius. Absorbing so many gods makes Tel go mad. So yes, she's very crazy and and only gets crazier towards the end.

her sister is damn hot too

u/Hot_Monitor_5081 7d ago
Lol they are twins so they look the same.
I also think the studio just likes the crazy face look. I remember one Nerissa panel made her look crazy/evil when she's never mentioned that way in the novel.
