'''Lycoris''' (meaning "red spider lily", he has no surname) was an AI scientist, a former member of [[90wish]] and the main researcher at [[Sangvis Ferri]] Manufacturing. Before his mysterious death during the [[Butterfly Incident]], Lycoris had developed the self-improving AI {{enemy name|Elisa|boss}} using the [[OGAS]] system as a base, and his research had become a point of great interest to certain dangerous people.

Both escaped assassination attempts after being noticed by [[IOP]]'s president [[Havier Witkin]], who hired a PMC to escort them to IOP's headquarters. Persicaria and Lycoris agreed to work for IOP under false names in the shell company named Hermit. They were instrumental in solving the long-standing problems that made the CSD series [[Tactical Doll]]s unusable as frontline fighters and helped designing the CSD-08 series, IAD series and ACD series Tactical Dolls for IOP.<ref name=Files1G>{{cite|cf1|The First Generation of Tactical Dolls}}</ref>
After the end of [[World War Three]], Lycoris participated in developing the SST series and Service Dolls series dedicated to civilian markets, but while Persicaria's goal was constant improvement of T-Dolls models, Lycoris was interested in autonomous AIs and asked Witkin to provide him the necessary funds, but he refused because Persicaria's research war more directly profitable for IOP. Frustrated and losing passion for his work, Lycoris used business conferences to approach [[Sangvis Ferri]] Manufacturing, IOP's old contractor-turned-rival. SF promised to fund his research and Lycoris left Hermit without informing Witkin. SF hired IOP's partner [[Griffin and Kryuger]] to protect Lycoris in case Witkin would seek retribution. As a payment, G&K asked access to all of Lycoris' future research results, which SF accepted. In just three years, Lycoris drastically improved the performance of SF's ALR series T-Dolls. G&K and SF's combined weights dissuaded Witkin from trying to get back at Lycoris for leaving Hermit.<ref name=Files2G>{{cite|cf1|The Second Generation of Tactical Dolls}}</ref>
