Black Beast

The Black Beast is a legendary beast that threatened to cause much calamity before the events of the first game.

Information
The Black Beast is a combination of Ragna and Nu fusing together inside of the Cauldron of Kagutsuchi, Ragna is its body, and Nu is its heart. When Ragna was defeated by Nu at the Sheol Gate, they were thrown into the cauldron and smelted together to form the Black Beast. This resulted in the Black Beast, along with Jin Kisaragi being thrown 100 years into the past, who then became Hakumen of the Six Heroes.

It was confronted by the Six Heroes and sealed away during the Dark War. In BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, it is revealed that the Black Beast was a failed product of Terumi Yuuki in an attempt to create Kusanagi, the "Sword to Slay the Gods". It is based on the story of Yamata no Orochi from Japanese mythology, one of the few such references in the series not to be directly named after its inspiration.
