To be fair, those guys were all doomed by that point...XD And we were in the middle of a Guild-wide reduction of the massive number of characters, necessitating such wholesale slaughter (or disappearances) for the greater good.
That, and it was really, really fun.

That stab-in-the-back thing fits with Sheoldred, since of where she is from, she has to deal with people who are just as strong as her on a daily basis.
@Zorc: No, Yatsuda's being taken away by minions. Ryofu's dealing with Al and Ennea. o wo He'll be let out when... the event says so. If at all.
@Hiba: I know, right?
@Arena: Your last sentence is undermining my confidence in the rest of your statement. XD Fortunately, they were all made to be disposable, so yeah.

And he will break out... ...to save Yuki-hime
and the information about sheoldred:
Sheoldred, Whispering One
Role: Sheoldred is one of the seven Steel Thanes that struggle for power over black-aligned faction of Phyrexia, and she currently holds the title of praetor.
Appearance: Sheoldred appears as a feminine humanoid torso emerging from a huge-mouthed, many-jointed fiend. Her movements are spiderlike in their grace, her limbs finding purchase among the mycosynth and metallic structures of the Core. Her body is covered with plates of oily, corroded metal. Her voice is a soft, grinding whisper, and she is kept informed at all times by a constant stream of informants, spies, and underlings.
Motif: Enslave.
Agenda: Although the agenda of the Steel Thanes in general is to overpower, corrupt, and enslave all other beings, Sheoldred herself has managed to hold power through the use of subtler methods. She collects debts and manipulates relationships in order to keep her allies in check and her foes as powerless as possible. Her goal is nothing less than control of all of Phyrexia—and she may just get her wish.
That is the motif that I am basing Sheoldred's skills around. And Naniyori would fit perfectly. As Geth
If you're willing to be backstabbed and the situation is interesting enough, it might be possible. 'Course, he'll probably betray you at the most critical moment, but that can be entertaining as well... XD

Oh, Naniyori might be willing to play along with the charade for a little bit if the charade is interesting enough...this is the dude who randomly does just about anything if he finds it amusing (like making puppet shows out of dead bodies and burning the Konishi Liquor Store something like 5 different times now)...but controlling him or expecting that he can be reaaally manipulated or kept under thumb?
Even Mori knew that wasn't possible...which was why when he was done with him he cut him loose to Sapporo, before he had a chance to stab him in the back. XD
To read this article will explain alot of what I am studying to be able to play Sheoldred perfectly.

I think that's also the reason why Naniyori's main boss is Louis Cypher himself. It's difficult to backstab a guy who A) Utterly rules the faction whose entire point is survival of the fittest and strength being power, and B) is Louis Cypher. Anyone much less than that, though... >.>
<.<
I mean, y'know, sometimes he might save a small child and pat them on the head just to make people wonder, but... it's Naniyori. You don't know him like we do.
