Name: Haumea

Gender: Female

Affiliation: Evangelist’s faction (one of the executives)

Alias/Title: Second Pillar

Voice Actor (Anime): Rie Kugimiya

Haumea is instantly recognizable by the crown-like visor that covers her eyes, giving her a mysterious, almost divine look.

Her hair is gathered and tied up at the top of her head, emphasizing the unusual silhouette of her headgear.

The combination of her blindfold-like crown and her constant smile creates a disturbing contrast with her cruel behavior.

Her overall appearance reinforces her role as a key figure among the Evangelist’s followers.

On the surface, Haumea has an extremely foul mouth and laughs often, switching to sudden, explosive anger over trivial things.

Her mood swings are intense, and she seems to enjoy mocking or tormenting others.

However, this is not her original personality.

Because of her ability to read the thoughts of people around her, she is constantly flooded with others’ emotions, which has severely warped her behavior.

Underneath that chaotic exterior, Haumea is actually naturally pessimistic and gentle, more subdued and calm than she appears.

Her current temperament is largely a defense mechanism against the relentless noise of other people’s minds.

Haumea is one of the Evangelist’s chief operatives and a central figure in the Evangelist’s grand plan involving the Pillars.

As the Second Pillar, she works closely with other high-ranking followers to manipulate events from the shadows.

Twelve years before the main events of Fire Force, Haumea was already serving under the Evangelist despite being only five years old.

During the catastrophic fire that affected the Kusakabe family, she played a key role in the tragedy that shaped their future.

Using her powers, Haumea controlled Mari Kusakabe after she turned into an Infernal.

Under Haumea’s manipulation, Mari abducted her younger son, Shō Kusakabe, who had just awakened his Adolla Burst.

This incident separated Shō from his brother Shinra Kusakabe and placed Shō directly in the hands of the Evangelist.

Haumea’s actions there are one of the core traumas behind the Kusakabe brothers’ story.

Haumea is a Third Generation pyrokinetic with a highly specialized and terrifying ability set.

Instead of manipulating flames in a straightforward way, she converts heat energy into electrical energy.

Heat-to-Electric Conversion

Haumea can transform thermal energy into electrical discharges, essentially weaponizing electricity rather than fire.

This lets her produce electric shocks and electromagnetic effects as a form of combat and control.

Her electricity-based powers extend far beyond simple offense.

They form the foundation for her neurological and mental interference abilities.

Thought Reading and Mental Control

By using electricity as neural signals, Haumea can read and interfere with the nervous systems of others.

She can pick up the electrical impulses of the brain, effectively allowing her to read thoughts.

With more focused use, she can hijack those signals and control other people like puppets.

This includes forcing them to move against their will or perform complex actions under her command.

Haumea’s mental intrusion is powerful enough to manipulate both ordinary people and transformed beings such as Infernals.

Her control was strong enough to command Mari Kusakabe even in her Infernal state and make her kidnap Shō.

However, constantly hearing the “voices” and emotions of others through their thoughts has a severe psychological cost.

Haumea is never truly alone in her own head, which is a major reason for her twisted outward personality and volatile behavior.

Weakness: Interference from Plasma

Haumea’s powers are significantly disrupted in the presence of plasma.

When plasma-based abilities are active nearby, the precision and effectiveness of her electrical and mental interference are greatly reduced.

This makes Arthur Boyle, who can manipulate plasma with his sword, a natural counter to Haumea.

In battles where Arthur is close, Haumea cannot use her full range of abilities, turning him into her natural nemesis.

Radio Head (Hōshatōnō)

Haumea’s signature technique is known as Radio Head.

By amplifying and tuning her electrical signals, she can send and receive information much like a living radio.

This ability allows her to broadcast commands directly into other people’s brains.

It also enhances her capacity to eavesdrop on thoughts and emotional states over a wider area, acting as both surveillance and control.

Radio Head symbolizes the core of Haumea’s theme: manipulation of information and minds using electricity as a medium.

It makes her incredibly dangerous on any battlefield, turning allies into liabilities and turning crowds into tools.

Haumea stands as a direct enemy to Shinra Kusakabe due to her role in the abduction of his brother Shō.

Her manipulation of Mari Kusakabe’s Infernal form made her a central figure in the Kusakabe family tragedy.

Her rivalry with Arthur Boyle is both tactical and symbolic.

Arthur’s plasma powers undermine her abilities, making him one of the few people who can naturally resist or cancel her mental control.

Within the Evangelist’s faction, Haumea functions as a strategist and controller rather than a simple frontline fighter.

Her presence on the battlefield often means that the true threat is not her own attacks, but the allies she turns against each other.
