==Character History==
===Kharn Flashback===
Ahriman meets with Kharn and two subordinates to discuss the incident where one of the Ninth killed three squads of the Third. Feeling herself in the right, she demands the murderer's life and the transfer of [[Mami Tomoe]] as compensation. Kharn refuses these terms and kills a hundred of Ahriman's subordinates.

Protected by her Equerry [[Erebus]], the Third Warmaster gains power from her golden staff and the sacrifice of her underlings and assaults her enemies with powerful magic. While Kharn fights Erebus, Ahriman grows wings and pushes Malal and Murderface into a tight spot before nearly killing the Third Warmaster upon her return.

Close to death, Kharn acquires a golden weapon of her own, shocking the faithful Ahriman by gaining the Blessed Lady's favor, and defeats her rather easily. Worshiping her goddess until the end, Ahriman is beheaded and her soul gem crushed by the Ninth Warmaster.

<spoiler show="Full Chapter Summary" hide>Ahriman awaits Kharn in her throne room like office to discuss an incident involving Girl A killing three squads of her Eversors during a joint mission. She and her subordinates are wearing white, apparently in the middle of mourning their fallen comrades. Ahriman ignores Kharns offenses, mentioning how she should mobilize her Officio against the Ninth, but instead demands the murderers soul gem and Mami Tomoe as compensation. 

After cackling for a while, Kharn tells her that the gem is already shattered and that she will never hand one of her own over. Ahriman mentions that her offer to restore balance without bloodshed is reasonable, taunting Kharn for refusing and manifests her snake headed golden hequin staff. Proclaiming that her magic powers are vastly superior, he mocks Kharns corruption, threatens to reveal her secret to the other Officios and drags the russians family pride through the dirt. 

As the Kharn proclaims full mobilisation and announces to kill everyone in the building, Ahriman calls her a fool but is cut off by her three opponents charging into combat. As Erebus pulls her away, she screams at Kharn, voice filled with rage. Hiding behind a protective formation, she merely watches Kharn's group slaughter a hundred of her subordinates, shocked by the Ninth Warmaster's mad lust for blood. 

Kharn offers to let the Third Officio go if she surrenders herself to be executed. Before Ahriman can answer, Erebus tells her to escape to the rest of the Officio while she holds Kharn back. As she runs, Murderface shoots her, but in this moment her eyes turn black, dark powers filling the Third Warmaster. She tosses Murderface at Malal and states that she predicted this outcome and let Kharn do the dirty work of slaying a hundred souls as an offering to her Blessed Lady. 

Confident in her new powers, Ahriman once again demands Mami Tomoe to be turned over to her, threatening to destroy the Ninth Officio together with the whole town otherwise. Erebus steps in as Kharn charges her, but is quickly struck and hurled across the room, causing another desperate scream from her Warmaster. She starts praying to the Blesed Lady before flinging spells at her assailants, lightning bright enough to darken everything around it. Her magic is deflected by Malals barrier, each bolt tearing holes into the walls until she collapses, spitting black blood. 

When the Ninth Warmaster readies herself to strike the exhausted magic user, Erebus tackles Kharn out of the building. During her continued fight with Malal, Ahriman sprouts black crow-like wings on her back, black and crimson veins emerging around her midnight colored eyes, a distorted scowl on her face. Her hands twisted into claws, she keeps holding her golden hequin staff while hurling magic bolts at her opponent. 

She screams at the returning Kharn before trembling at the sight of Erebus prayer parchments, evidence of her Equerrys death, being thrown at her. Crying bloody tears for her friend, she says that the Blessed Lady promised to keep her safe, that she sacrificed everything for this and begs her deceased Equerry for forgiveness. 

When Kharn charges at her, Ahriman stops the burning chainsword with her magic and shatters the weapon with a mere gesture, sending the pieces flying towards the russian. As Kharn lies pinned to the ground, paralyzed with the pain of being impaled by several steel shards digging into her stomach, Ahriman makes to follow Malal and Murderface, saying how they are interesting, bearing the mark of the Blessed Lady. Her magic penetrates the Culexus shield and knocks her unconscious until Ahriman lifts her up and starts tearing her arms off. 

Alarmed by a buzzing sound, she turns to see Kharn stand again, wielding two golden chainaxes. Shaken by the heretic receiving the Bleddes Ladys gift, she points her staff at her, forming arcane words, but is interrupted by the Kharn charging her at high speed. She blocks the first strikes with her staff, terrified by the blasphemy, but gets pushed back by the relentless assault. She tries gaining distance by flapping her wings, but the axe wielder bypasses her defense and cuts off her right wing, making her fall back to the ground. Another chainaxe swing cuts off her legs, sending Ahriman to the ground while Kharn kicks her staff out of reach. 

Praying to the Blessed Lady, the crippled Warmaster tries to crawl away, towards her weapon, but is pinned down by Kharns bladed leg. When asked again about why she wanted Mami Tomoe, she says that the Blessed Lady's True Herald opens the way to the Golden Truth and that the Black Sarcophagus must not be given to the Irregular. Without another word, Kharn beheads Ahriman and crushes her blackened [[Soul Gem|soul gem]], putting an end to her words of worship.</spoiler>

===Currently===
After her death at the hands of Kharn, Ahriman's soul survives inside the golden staff. It made it's way into the hands of [[Oriko Mikuni]] who appears as the Prophet working against Chiaki Matsuda. Whether it is Oriko's own will or Ahriman's manipulation is unknown.

==Trivia==
*Ahriman is a reference to the Warhammer character of the same name, a powerful Chaos Sorceror of the Thousand Sons Traitor Legion.
*Ahriman's appearance is based on Nyaruko from Haiyore! Nyaruko-san.
