Cecie

Cecie is a quiet and reserved girl who works as a herder within Banga. As Lisa’s adopted daughter, Cecie is usually on the receiving end of her mother’s strict teachings. When she runs away from home, Kat is asked to track her down.

Past

Template:SpoilerCecie first arrived in the Banga Settlement after coming through a gravity storm. She was later adopted by Lisa and started working as the settlement's herder.

Gravity Rush 2

Cecie works as a herder within Banga. She takes a liking towards Kat, admiring her positive outlook. She reveals to have looked after Dusty while he and Kat were separated when she ran off just before a Gravity Storm. When Banga docks in Jirga Para Lhao, Cecie is often found in the marketplace, in one case looking for a gift for Lisa.

Eventually, she, along with Lisa, Syd, and some other Banga residents, are taken prisoner by the Council, and it is up to Kat and Raven to break them out. She is later seen being held captive inside the engine powering Neu Hiraleon. Kat saves her, but Raven discovers crystals covering parts of Cecie's face.

Later, as Kat is fighting Kali Angel, Raven and Cecie show up through a wormhole that brought the two to Hekseville, but some time afterwards, she comes to Kali's aid (during Kat's second fight with her) and suddenly undergoes a transformation into Durga Angel, due to being a compatible vessel. As Dr. Brahman's plans to freeze time is carried out, she recognises Kat, and becomes conflicted over whose side she's on. It is only after Lisa's voice reaches her that she regains her senses. After Kali is defeated, Cecie is carried away in Lisa's arms, visibly exhausted.

Cecie shows up one last time during the battle against The Darkness to assist Kat as a declaration of her loyalty by transforming into her Durga persona, now having mastered it. She crystallises The Darkness long enough for Kat to seemingly finish it off, but the creature breaks free and violently swats Durga/Cecie away, seemingly killing her.

A year later, she is revealed to have survived the encounter with The Darkness. Lisa now leaves Cecie in charge of Banga while she goes away for important business. Raven and Lisa both comment on how wonderful of a job she has done in that time frame.

Personality

Among Cecie's most notable traits are that she is very timid, quiet, and reserved. Despite being scolded by Lisa on several occasions, she remains loyal to her adoptive mother, and always tries her hardest to keep her happy. She appears to be afraid of letting Lisa, and to an extent Kat, down, as demonstrated by an apologetic demeanour when she does something wrong or makes an error of judgement.

Her interactions with Dusty show that Cecie is also very caring, having looked after him whilst he was separated from Kat.

She is incredibly shy, and has a hard time expressing herself (as indicated by her dialogue, in which she appears to stutter quite a bit). Over the course of the second game, she slowly starts to come out of her shell, becoming more vocal about her feelings and eventually taking initiative. The latter is best demonstrated by her transforming (at will) into her Durga Angel form to assist Kat against The Darkness, and in the epilogue, taking care of the Banga Settlement whilst Lisa is away.

In many ways, Cecie looks at Kat somewhat as a role model, valuing her for her optimism and strong will. Throughout Gravity Rush 2, she remains loyal to the Gravity Queen. After the final battle, when Raven pays her and Lisa a visit, she exclaims that being strong and positive is something she's always wanted to be (...like Kat) as a reply to Raven's comment of having grown in her role.

Abilities

Originally, Cecie wasn't shown to have any powers until she arrived in Hekseville. She could manifest crystals from her body, but didn't have conscious control over this ability. After her transformation into Durga Angel, she had complete control over her crystals, generating countless masses of them without any sign of fatigue. Cecie could generate shields of crystal durable enough to stop a combined finishing move from Kat and Raven, as well as create small cages and platforms. When fighting alongside Kali Angel, she created large blades around Kali's arms. It would appear that these crystals can also levitate in the air, as shown when she created platforms for Kali. It could be due to Cecie making them float in the air, similar to when she fires her crystals as projectiles.

In her angel form, Cecie is granted the ability to fly.

Relationships

Lisa

Cecie was discovered by Lisa after she appeared from a gravity storm and was adopted as her daughter. Although Lisa is often strict with her, Cecie tries her best to make her happy, which is why she works as the settlement's herder. When Cecie first transformed into her angel form and was lost in her Durga Angel persona, Lisa's voice was able to reach her and bring her back to her senses, showing the strong bond between them.

Kat

Cecie was the first from the Banga Settlement to meet Kat after she and Syd came through the gravity storm. As with everyone, she acted shyly towards Kat but often held her in high regards. She admired Kat for her positive attitude and strong will, not to mention her gravity powers. As the story progresses, Cecie becomes more open to Kat and during the final fight against The Darkness, she declares her loyalty to Kat and transforms into her angel form in order to help her.

Dusty

Cecie took care of Dusty after his arrival with Kat in the Banga Settlement. While he was separated from Kat, Dusty seemed to have taken a liking to Cecie.

Appearances

Cecie makes a very brief appearance after the credits in Gravity Rush Overture.

Gravity Rush 2

Trivia

Cecie's name bears strong resemblance to "Cecilia," a Latin name that is derived from the Latin caecus ("blind").
Cecie's doll, Angel, seems a likely allusion to Durga Angel.
She is the first new character from Gravity Rush 2 to be introduced (though her name wasn't known at the time), due to her cameo in Gravity Rush: Overture.
