"Mature Content"
This character or verse has mature themes and concepts, thus those of young age are ill-advised to look through these.

That’s what I did. This cradle is the home of my father. The guardians have fallen. You are Queen of a kingdom that no longer exists. You’ve never been here to do such a thing. Your role was to take care of him, and you have failed your task. And because of you, I must now complete my sacred mission. Lost in preparing the birthday party, you forgot who it was for. …Queen of the flies, it is time for you to join your disciples. Nothing went right, we must forget it all and dream sweet dreams now. However, his shows fear.
~ The Batter to the Queen before and after the battle
Avatar Beat

Background

The Batter is the main protagonist of OFF. When starting the game, The Player is assigned to the Batter and told that he has a special mission to fulfill. The Batter is aware that the Player is controlling him and that he has a purpose, but is relatively uninformed about the nature of the Zones and the world he is in. The Batter fights with different types of baseball bats and utilizes competences that are usually named after baseball terms. He acts as the savior of the world. Embarked on a holy mission, he plans to fulfill this task with the help of his puppeteer who controls his movements. In many ways, the Batter's relationship with the Player resembles that of a solemn religious crusader whose every deed, action and decision is justifiable purely on behalf of his Higher Power.

If The Player chooses to align with the Judge in the game's final battle, the Batter spontaneously takes on a much more disturbing appearance. He is now seen as a depraved, crocodilian creature with soulless white eyes, a mouth filled with serrated teeth and a pair of enormous claws. It is confirmed by Mortis Ghost that this is not a different form of the Batter, but simply a different perspective of him since at that point in the game the player would perceive him as the enemy.
