Sterling Utahraptor

Sterling Utahraptor, also known as the Purgatory Strange Demon, is the Ancient Gear of Damian Hoffman. It is an independent avatar Ancient Gear and one of the Friends.

Summary
In the past, the God of the Bible created the Sterling Utahraptor by using three separate sources, which is an extremely rare case, even among the Longinus. First is Amanojaku, the Fallen God from Japanese mythology, who was birthed when the Storm God Susanoo vomited out his built up rage. Second, being the Tenka-Goken, five powerful swords from Japanese legends. And third, a Utahraptor from the Cretaceous period of earth, to serve as a body.

Once each were sealed in Sterling Utahraptor, the evil and wickedness of Amanojaku caused the five blades to be transformed into cursed blades, with one in particular, the Onimaru, becoming the base ability of the Ancient Gear.

Appearance
Esther takes the form of a large raptor, around the size of a German Shepherd dog, covered in white-colored scales and dark spots, with red eyes and red hair and feathers.

In it's true form, the Sterling Utahraptor becomes an 3-meters tall, vicious-looking raptor of snow-white and jet-black scales, with blue flames shooting from it's mouth and nostrils.

Abilities
Sterling Utahraptor summons a raptor that has its own instincts, moving around independently from its wielder. has the ability to generate large amounts of powerful flames of varying colors such as blue, red, and black.

In Volume 4, after undergoing a ritual along with Beatrice Strauss and Gertrude Bauer, Damian became able to summon two of the five swords within Esther, the Onimaru and the Mikazuki.

Sterling Maverick Blaze
Sterling Maverick Blaze, also known as the Mad Blade Armor of the Strange Heavenly Demon, is Damian's Overdrive of Sterling Utahraptor. When he first used, Damian appeared in an disordered-looking, militaristic armor with five distorted swords appearing from his back and flames appearing around parts of his body.

After it's second use and later uses, it now appears as an sleek, clean, militaristic knight armor of dark-tone with flames appearing from his face, back and legs. In this form, Esther's now azure flames are comparable to the strongest forms of fire magic and the flames of the Vermilion Bird, capable of melting the flesh and bones of a man in moments.

Upon his second activation, Damian recites a chant to activate this form, which is as follows:
 * <<——Mine be a Strange Beast born of flames>>
 * <<——Dancing upon the cinders of ten thousand goblins>>
 * <<——Bathed in a Seething Flare, mine name be one etched in wood>>
 * <<——O ye, perishest by mine own five malformed claws>>
 * <<——Fool ye art, oh Mad Fallen God>>

Trivia

 * The appearance and size of the utahraptor is a reference to the Indoraptor from the movie Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.
