Wretched Egg

The Wretched Egg (レチッド エグ, Rechiddo Egu) is Shiro's second personality. She is the original Deadman and is also known as the Red Man (赤い男, Akai Otoko).

Appearance
The Wretched Egg used to wear a red, worn-out cape with a mask that cover her nose and eyes, without any holes. As the Red Man, she also wears a heavy suit of armor that defends her body, legs and arms. This outfit actually makes her look like Aceman, a superhero Shiro looked up to.

The Wretched Egg has recently changed her look. Now, she has the same body suit as Shiro, but without the red lines. Instead, she added some kind of fishnet stockings over her arms and legs. She also wears a collar with a small chain attached to it.

Personality
The Wretched Egg is the opposite of Shiro. She is sadistic, appears to value solitude over companionship and doesn't enjoy sweets (whereas Shiro adores it). The most obvious difference is that Shiro is naïve and sweet while the Red Man is vicious, merciless and cruel. The only thing that is consistent between the two is their affection for Ganta (though the Wretched Egg's feelings for him are much more warped when compared to the innocent love Shiro harbors for him).

History
When Hagire Rinichirō and Sorae Igarashi experimented on Shiro and caused her so much pain so couldn't handel it anymore, Shiro created a second personality to cope with the pain. This personality was the cruel and vicious Wretched Egg.

She was the cause of the Great Tokyo Earthquake

Abilities
Branch of Sin: As the original Deadman, the Wretched Egg has the power to control her blood freely out of her blood.

Branch of Sin: Unknown Branch: As the Wretched Egg, her powers are unmatched even by the strongest of opponents while her powers were restrained by the Mother Goose System. She has been shown to massacre dozens of people by creating a whip of blood that can destroy parts of the body instantly. Her Branch of Sin also resembles a hurricane. While unrestrained, she was powerful enough to cause the Great Tokyo Earthquake that submerged a large area of Tokyo. Its possible her power can spread infinitely and be expressed in multiple forms.

Regeneration: The Wretched Egg has the power to regenerative completely in a very short time. She has displayed this by healing several wounds by Ganta's Ganbaru Gun almost immediately.

Manifestation of the Red Crystal: The Wretched Egg can also materialize a Red Crystal that houses the Nameless Worm and inject it into someone by shooting it in his/her chest. She has only done this once, to Ganta in the Nagano school massacre.
