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

Prison arc
The Wretched Egg first appears as the Red Man, floating outside the window of the Nagano middle school. While, the lullaby sounds, the Red Man attacks the class using her Branch of Sin. He kills every student in Ganta's class except himself. She is seen holding Mimi's head when she notices Ganta being conscious again. She moves towards him, grins and plants a Red Crystal in his chest. Ganta faints again and the Wretched Egg goes back to Deadman Wonderland.

Deadman arc
The next time the Wretched Egg takes over, is when Yō and Shiro search for an entrance to G Ward. Yō tells Shiro to attack the guards in the control tower, so that he can order the central control tower to shut off the power in that area. They do so, and with that, the Mother Goose System is shut down as well. With the MGS down, the Wretched Egg takes control of Shiro's body and kills all the guards and destroys the whole tower. She falls down and faints after that. The twins take Shiro back to the director.

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.
