Template:Organization (Traitors Scheme)

Traitor (道場破り, Toreta) is the name given to any individual who ventures into the limits of Death City, with the singular purpose of challenging those affiliated with Shibusen in order to test their strength, through means of combat. Thus far, all those that have been observed appear to share some connection with the Witch Shaula Gorgon, who seems to be manipulating them for her own means.

Overview

The majority of Traitors are normal humans and as such, are often regarded as no more than mere nuisances to the students of Shibusen and the residents of Death City, rather than posing any real threat to the general population. In most instances, they are so lacking in skill that just a simple demonstration of strength performed by even the lowest echelon of pupils (i.e. the "Not" class) is enough to drive them away, without the necessity for any actual engagement. However, due to the sheer volume of occurrences which take place (with it requiring greater than around 16 per month to be regarded as abnormal), the existence of the Traitors still serves as a constant source of annoyance and in spite of the apparent weakness of most of the Traitors, the potential risk that they constitute means that some students still fear them deeply.

History

Beginnings

Shaula awaits for the results of her experiment.

Not much is known on how the Traitors first came around. The witch, Shaula Gorgon, began practcing her experiments on brainwashing at some point. She eventually used Meme Tatane as her experiment for a more advance brainwashing and placed her in Shibusen to serve as a sleeper agent and spy for her. 

Shaula also begans creating a stimulant in which is able to craft people into the "perfect soldiers". The stimulant puts anyone she infects under her control and raises their physical ability. 

Rise of the Traitors

Akane encounters the first prototype.

As time passed by in Shibusen, the number of traitor in appearance began spiking. Shibusen eventually captures one of the traitors. Shaula orders her second prototype to kill the first one, who was being held in a Shibusen prison to cover her tracks. Despite her efforts, Shibusen does pin the rise of traitors on Shaula.

Death Bazaar Incident

Eternal Feater is forced to attack innocent bystanders.

Going in under a disguise as a seller of scorpion-related jewlery, Shaula eventually attractst the N.O.T Senior, Eternal Feather. Placing her under her hypnosis and contro with the use of the poison ring, she forces Eternal Feather to attack the people in the Death Bazaar at random. Her actions force the intervention of the E.A.T class members, Maka Albarn and Soul. Feeling the need to cover her tracks, she forces Eternal Feather to kill herself. Despite her efforts, Eternal Feather miraculously survives the order without memory of what actually transpired. Tsugumi, prior to passing out, see's the poison ring fade away. 

The wait till Halloween

Shaula infects Sid.

As Halloween approaches closer and close, Shaula herself remains hidden from Shibusen's attempts of finding her, having figured she was planning on making her move on the same day of the Battle Festival. Despite their best efforts, Shibusen is not sucessful in finding her and were running out of time. As days passed, Shaula occasionally used Meme in order to steal documents for her. Eventually, Shibusen finds a connection between Meme and Shaula. Sid Barett, who was in charge of the investigation, plans to use Meme to lure out Shaula. 

Sid is killed by Shaula

On the day before the Battle Festivla, Shaula sets her plans in motion. She went to retrieve Meme Tatane, who was caught while acting out as her spy by Akane and his weapon, Clay. However, Meme succeeds in escaping as she is then controlled by Shaula. Shibusen gives pursuit and Shaula infects some of Sid's forces. As he gives chase to Meme, he is cornered by his own men who were under the mind control of Shaula. Despite his best efforts, he is infected by Shaula and killed, impaled on the head by a replica of the Statue of Liberty.

End of the Traitors

Shaula killed by the trio's triple soul resonance.

The trio began battling the witch leader, Shaula Gorgon, with everything they got. Though the leader is impressed,  the trio knows that even with the three of them together isn't enough to put her down. The battle interrupted by Akane☆Hoshi and Clay Sizemore, who join the battle with the girls. Together, they pose more of a threat and corner Shaula. As she gains some distance from her opponenets, she is surprised to see that all of the eight Death Scythes from around the world have come to reclaim their city. She also finds that Death himself and his son, Death the Kid had arrived to take her down. Anya, Tsugumi, and Meme pull off the triple resonance at the same time, Shaula being distracted long enough to recieve the killing blow. With her dead, the mind control stimulant is nullified and the threat of the traits end. Her soul is this claimed by Death the Kid.

Trivia

• The kanji used to refer to a Traitor (道場破り, Dōjō Yaburi) is actually a reference to outsiders who used to approach various dojo in order to challenge the school's particular Sensei. To do so, the outsider was required beforehand to work his way up through the ranks of students, before he was even considered to have earned the right to such an opportunity. In Soul Eater, these so called Traitors approach Shibusen with similar intentions and likely gained such a name from opposing an organization that is so deeply trusted throughout the world.
