Name: B.B.
Arcana Association: The Tower
Persona: Hastur
History: B.B. and Yakumo were friends and business partners at one point. Yakumo found the Black Book (perhaps because of Nyarlathotep), but B.B. was the one who could utilize its power.When B.B.gained the power of the Black Book, he started to beome less human and more devil. He and Yakumo amplified the power of the Book with computers and machinary that seemed to feed of Personae.
Personality Analysis: What can we say about B.B? His arcana association has no positive spin. To give it to you straight, the Tower stands for catastrophic and irreversible change. That pretty much sums up his situation. Also, by being the Tower, B.B. is the back bone of Nymphea's entire operation, and this is in a very literal way. After B.B.'s death the Black Book became less stable (since it had no living conduit). Every surviving member of the organization started to loose their humanity and be taken over by their Personae. As for his actually personality, B.B. is very cold, has limited contact with people, and he does seem capable of showing emotion. In most group scenes with the Nymphea crew, you can see B.B. in the back ground. He doesn't say a word, nor is he near anyone. He is actually a very solitary figure, and it's sort of sad...
Relationship: It's hard not to feel sorry for him, in my opinion. But while there's a lot to this character, his condition prevents him from having much human interaction. He also doesn't get much love as far as fandom is concerned, but there is one possibility.

- Yuuri: Yuuri works closely with B.B. in the lab, and he was most effected by his death. This is most likely a case of hero worship to the extreme. B.B. is an incredibly intellegent man, and Yuuri wants to be like that. Honestly, even if Yuuri felt more, B.B. wouldn't be able to return it. Boy, he knows how to pick them!
- Yakumo: At one point or another, he and Yakumo were friends. Yakumo respects B.B. a lot, and his death was a big blow to Yakumo (it just wasn't as hard to him as it was to Yuuri). While they were close, as he was in the manga, it seemed as if they had drifted apart. Whenever Yakumo is in a meeting (while he was still human), B.B. came with him, since he was a loyal friend.
