Ater (アーテル) is a supporting character from The Gray Garden. She is one of Kcalb's two demon cat underlings, the other being her twin sister Arbus. She is also one of the handful of survivors from The Great War.
Physical Description[]
Ater has long white hair cut into a hime cut, red eyes with white pupils, black cat ears, a black pointed tail, and two pair of small bat wings. She wears something of a school uniform, consisting of a white dress shirt with a red tie, a light gray blazer, dark gray pleated skirt, red checkered leggings/tights, boots with the top folded over and having small four black buttons, and a little bat wing sticking out on both boots. Although her sprite has shown her to have two tails, in her official art, she is seen with only one. Like Arbus, she is also shown holding a black trident with diamond shapes and bat wing shapes on it.
Personality[]
Much like her twin sister, Ater is described to be a huge troublemaker and idiot. When her sister and her get the chance, they will take routes and paths allowing them the most fun, making up excuses and shifting the blame for when they get berated later.
Ater is rather naughty but knows when to be serious. She does not listen to her master Kcalb's orders and does whatever makes her happy. She apparently likes sightseeing, as shown when Arbus and her strolled in the Flame Underworld. She is the type who regularly asks the questions and wonders, whereas Arbus gives the answers and possibilities. Ater appears to be the more cautious and anxious of the two. She has been shown worrying more about their rightdoings and safety.
The bonus room states she likes Lord Kcalb's lap, hates water, and has a hobby of strolling. She also thinks aojiru tastes awful.
Background[]
During the Great War between angels and demons, Ater fought together with her sister Arbus alongside her devil Kcalb. The war eventually ended, leaving Ater and Arbus as two of the six survivors.
Ater and Arbus continued working under Kcalb as his subordinates after the war. They now live in Blancblack Castle alongside Kcalb and Etihw.

Arbus is Ater’s twin sister. The two of them are rarely ever seen apart and they work together. They always do whatever makes them most happy, which frequently receives a negative reaction from their master. Ater asks questions and wonders while Arbus makes up the answers and possibilities. The two tend to tease Kcalb and sarcastically wonder about his constant anger towards them. Despite this, Ater does her best in serving him and worries for his wellbeing as seen when she and Arbus came to his aide during his fight with Ivlis.

Kcalb[]
- This section is incomplete. You can help improve this article by expanding it.
Kcalb is Ater's master, having served under him since the events of the Great War. She is devoted to him but rarely does anything he commands the way he likes it. Irked yet resigned over her mannerisms, Kcalb relies on Ater to survey and report to him. He labels her sister and her as "hopeless idiots," and the two sarcastically wonder about his constant rebukes. Despite this, Ater is devoted to Kcalb and will not tolerate opposition toward her devil. She does their best in serving him and also worries for his wellbeing as can be seen when her and her sister come to his aide during his fight with Ivlis.
Like Arbus, Ater enjoys sleeping on Kcalb's lap. The two also state that Kcalb never takes them out. In the bonus room video Old Guy Black, Ater declares her loyalty to Kcalb no matter "how old and decrepit" he becomes.
Alela Grora[]
Grora has a strong aversion to Ater. During the war, Ater gouged out Grora's eye and seems to have lost it since, provoking Grora's wrath, which hasn't waned many years after. Grora near-constantly looks for both Ater and her missing eye, considering the demon never sticks around for long and runs at the mere sight of Grora.
After being wounded by Rieta, and found by Yosafire and her friends, Froze explains how they were saved by Ater and Arbus. Hearing this, Grora is visibly shocked, disregarding Froze's pleads of her staying silent due to the amount of blood she is coughing up; Grora keeps pressing on for information regarding Ater. She holds venom in her words when telling the girls of Ater's past doing.
During their reunion in the game, Grora immediately disregards everything around her and focuses solely on Ater. She proclaims with exuberance her wishes of taking Ater's eye, but the demon flees to Blancblack Castle, to which Grora continues her pursuit.
In the end of The Gray Garden, Grora is seen chasing Ater in a circle around the fountain in Blancblack Castle, with Arbus and Wodahs looking on in silence.
