Luste Teuber [RKS005 Funf] (ルステ・トイバー, Rusute Toibaa; pronounced Lust Toi-ber), who refers to herself as Protogirl Bluste and is also referred to as "The Metal Hero" by her stage introduction in Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~ when donning her "Garb of Justice", is the fifth member of RKS. She is a cheerful, easygoing yet self-centered girl with deep admiration for Spiritia. She is also the superior of Doris Warmind, the leader of the RKS Special Forces unit, despite the latter's one-sided rivalry with her.

According to her profile on the website for the April Fools' Day joke Rosenkreuzstilette ~Lustatem~ before it was taken down, Luste is ten years old, making her one of the youngest members of RKS. Her height was also stated on the site to be 143cm.

Appearance[]

Luste wears perhaps some of the most revealing clothes in the Rosenkreuzstilette franchise. In Rosenkreuzstilette, she wears a very revealing black bikini with a bronze cross and a red gem on it on the middle of her bra. She also wears long black gloves, stockings, a black collar, long oval-shaped rings around her wrists and white shoes. Luste has short, orange hair with two ahoges on the sides of her head, sage-green eyes, black cross earrings, and fangs. She also has small, floating bat-like wings.

In Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~, she wears a pair of orange goggles (which appear to have a red hue in the game), a slightly more revealing black bikini, metal knuckles, and slightly larger oval-like rings.

Personality[]

"Let's play Cops & Robbers! Tia, you're the bad guy!"
—Luste Teuber, Rosenkreuzstilette

Luste is a cheerful, optimistic, and easygoing young girl who enjoys living in the present and believes that she is emotionally mature for her age. Her easygoing personality, however, makes her treat everything like a game. According to her profile on the April Fools joke pages for Rosenkreuzstilette ~Lustatem~, she doesn't seem to contribute much to RKS's missions. She also has a lot of admiration for Spiritia, though when she plays games with her, she makes Spiritia be the "bad guy". Luste cannot tell the difference between a game and real fight. She can also be self-centered and simple-minded at times. For an unknown reason, she enjoys drinking tomato juice.

When she dons her Metal Hero gear, Luste prefers to call herself Protogirl Bluste, the Metal Hero of Justice, and acts like an over-the-top superhero, saying that she fights for the sake of justice and refusing to use her real name while donning said gear. She also genuinely believes in the notion that heroes are supposed to forgive their enemies instead of killing them, which she refers to as an act carried out by bad guys.

Abilities[]

Luste's ability, Lustatem, allows her to produce orange-colored pressurized blades of wind through the air. She can also change the blades trajectory and fire them in rapid succession. Luste is also capable of jumping higher than any normal human being, often to be believed that she is actually flying, possibly due to her small wings.

Ch-Luste

Luste as she appears in Rosenkreuzstilette.

Luste was thrilled to meet up with Spiritia. Her main reason for the joining RKS's rebellion against the Holy Empire was simply to be "the hero that will defeat the evil Empire", thought she admitted to having fun smashing several buildings. From there, Luste decided to play a "game" with Spiritia, and fought her. She lost and realized the difference between a game and a real fight, though she still had fun "playing" with Spiritia. Luste then promised that she will never smash a single building again.

At the end of Rosenkreuzstilette, Luste awaited Spiritia's arrival along with the other members of RKS on a floating island, and they happily reunited.

Rosenkreuzstitte ~Grollschwert~[]

In Rosenkreuzstilette ~Grollschwert~, Luste wondered what was Grolla Seyfarth doing in her territory. She ordered Luste to stop what she doing, but she refused to listen and wanted to play more. Grolla called her an idiot and Luste remarked, "Ah! It takes one to know one!" and Grolla decided to discipline her. Luste lost and Grolla wanted her to leave and reflect on her actions. Luste began to cry a little, and Grolla figured that she hadn't disciplined her enough. Luste apologized for her actions and left.

Boss strategy[]

Luste immediately jumps high into the air and begins by firing Lustatem shot at the player multiple times as she lands. Sometimes when she lands on the groud, Luste will fire Lustatem shots in every direction. If they player approaches Luste, she will approach the player to stay in her firing range. When the player gets too close to Luste, Luste will jump over behind the player and attack from there. When Luste reaches Desperation Mode, she will sometimes fire a series of Lustatem shots in every direction when she lands on the ground and when the player gets too close to Luste at this time, she fire a large Lustatem shot at the player as she jumps over them.

Her weakness is Liebessturm, which can be obtained after defeating Liebea Palesch. Because Luste is based off of Metal Man, she also shares the same weakness; her own weapon, Lustatem. Because Lustatem can't be used during the initial first battle, as the player does not possess the weapon yet, the player will have to use Liebesstrum to deplete her health quickly. The only time this trick can be performed is when the player fights the Luste Homonculus in Iris Quarters.

Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~[]

"The heavens know! The Earth knows! I know! Never fear! The Metal Hero, Protogirl Bluste is here!"
—Luste Teuber, Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~

Freudia investigates the reactivation of the sky fortress Sleipnir and finds Luste playing her "silly" games again. She introduces herself as Protogirl Bluste, the Metal Hero of Justice, proclaiming that she will right wrongs and triumph over evil, calling Freudia the "unflinching ice queen". Freudia doesn't buy it and surprises her by calling her by her real name, which she denies.

Freudia defeats Luste but Luste refuses to go to the aid of slowing the progress of the Imperial army, even though she was originally ordered/pleaded by Sichte to aid Grolla. Freudia, having no other options, tells Luste that the "evil Pope" and the "bad people" were coming to persecute the people in the land of the Count and convinces Luste that it is more heroine-like to save those people when they need it the most. Luste leaves immediately afterwards. Strudel asks if Zeppelin's Castle is in trouble and Freudia says no, but that the Pope and the Church would be in trouble soon enough.

Freudia learns Eislanze from her in the full version of the game and acquires Strudel's Frügel from her.

Rosenkreuzstilette ~Weißsilber‎~[]

Pamela heads to the sky fortress Sleipnir to pursue Luste, one of her targets. Upon finding her, she quickly reveals her secret identity from the start, but Luste doesn't care, proclaiming that she will right wrongs and defeat evil. Pamela is shocked at the notion of being called evil and asks her what she's wearing, stating that there are limits to indecency, while Luste answers that the only outfit a hero needs is the "Garb of Justice", reasoning that anything that's not sexy is not justice, saying it's why she's the hero and Pamela is her nemesis. Pamela wonders to herself that she doesn't get how justice relates to the amount of skin revealed, then shouts at her that she's on the side of justice.

After defeating Luste, Pamela makes her intent to show no mercy clear and orders her to say her prayers. Luste calls her out as a phony saying that heroes are supposed to forgive their enemies instead of killing them, calling her a bad guy for her choice of words. Both shocked and infuriated by what Luste just said, Pamela, stating that she is on the side of justice, decides to spare her instead and orders her to leave, after which Luste happily complies and bids her farewell, leaving her to wonder if she was really doing the right thing.

Stage[]

Main article: Luftfeste Sleipnir

Boss strategy[]

Luste will jump around the room three to four times firing several Lustatem shots before flying high up towards the other side of the screen and firing several Lustatem arrows in eight directions. When she lands, she will pose, create a wind that drags the player towards her, and fire a large Lustatem shot at the player in a direction dependent on where the player is positioned. From that point until her HP is at half health, she'll repeat the same process. Once she goes into Desperation Mode, the floor will disappear off the screen and be replaced by several rising platforms, with the main one in the center not moving as Luste flies high upward. When she comes down, she will fire several Lustatem arrows in several directions either below her, above her, or to several sides of her, and she'll do it at least twice before flying back up and coming back down from in another spot from the top of the screen.

Luste is weak against Eisschwert, which is learned from Grolla.

Trivia[]

  • Luste's name is derived from the German word "lust," which means "desire" in German. "Lust" can also signify delight or an energetic nature, which reflects her cheerful personality. Her name could also be derived from "lust," as in one of the Seven Deadly Sins as a reference to her under-dressed appearance. "Teuber" comes from Klaus Teuber, the award-winning German designer of the well-known board game Settlers of Catan, among others.
  • Luste Teuber is a reference to Metal Man from Mega Man 2. Her Homonculus in Iris Stage 3 can also be defeated by her own weapon in two hits just like Metal Man in Rosenkreuzstilette.
  • One of her pre-battle quotes, when said in Japanese, happens to be a play on "Oni-gokko", the Japanese name for the game of Tag. Japanese children enjoy giving new names to traditional games whenever they implement new rules of their own.
  • Luste's Game Over screen in Rosenkreuzstilette parodies Flandre Scarlet, the extra stage boss, on the boxart of Touhou 06 ~ Embodiment of Scarlet Devil.
  • In one of the screenshots from the Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~ April Fool's site, Luste was shown wearing sunglasses and a yellow scarf similar to Proto Man from the original Mega Man series. Though her final design in Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~ still bears a striking resemblance to Proto Man in said game.
    • Luste also calls herself "Bluste" in one of her introduction quotes in said game, a mixture of her name with "Blues", the Japanese name of Proto Man. The other title she creates, "Metal Hero", refers to the subtitle of Rockman 8 as well. In addition, during the first phase of her fight in Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~, her attack pattern may be considered an amalgamation of Proto Man's from Mega Man 3 and 7.
  • In the story mode of Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~, her dialogue theme reused the title screen theme of the original Rosenkreuzstilette.
  • During her dialog with Freudia before the boss fight in Rosenkreuzstilette ~Freudenstachel~, Luste says, "In the name of the Blues, I'll punish you!" This line is similar to the common phrase said by the Sailor Senshi in the Sailor Moon franchise, only the word "moon" is switched out and replaced with "Blues".
