Background

Add is the demon of paradox, stuck in endless contradictions of Time and Space. He can destroy time and space with his paranormal powers that far exceeds the power of technology and science.

When Add realized that it's impossible to return to the exact past that he hails from, he loses his mind from despair, and aimlessly travels around Time and Space, leaving endless destruction in his path.

Perhaps it was a fatal side effect of his aimless traveling between different parallel universes, but Add feels that his body has reached its limit. Before his body completely disintegrates, he attempts one final experiment, a forbidden experiment that will deconstruct him to a molecular level then tie his very being to the essence of Time and Space.

"With this... I'll be back in the cycle of time..."

With the experiment ending in a success, Add becomes a separate entity existing independently from the natural progression of time. The only thing that remains is his obsessive desire to return to the only past in which he felt happiness.

Trivia

• Mad Paradox is no longer a physical being. Instead, he is now an enigma in time and space with a fluctuating appearance, explaining his child-like default appearance.
  • His appearance shows parts of his body breaking away. This is reflected in the back-story that his body is reaching the limit of time travel. This is reflected more in his Alternate Mode form.
  • The in-game model for Mad Paradox still retains the same size, despite his child-like appearance.
  • His younger body is still affected by the time travel disease on one eye, despite him only receiving it during his time as Time Tracer.
  • The half-opened eyes he has in his portrait (with the exception of his Alternate Mode) also reflects on his default model in-game.
• Mad Paradox's actual age is still the same as the other paths, as he shows in his Alternate Mode.
• Prior to the Korean update on November 1, 2018, going into Configuration Mode (Awakening) even in his child-like form would cause both of Mad Paradox's sclera to turn black, just like Diabolic Esper.
• The white shard floating right next to him in his portrait seems to display his mother from one of the alternate timelines.
• Mad Paradox has a cat hood, which has returned after the Time Tracer job.
• Upon advancing to Mad Paradox, Add's personality takes a drastic turn from being a loud and manic class to a more subdued and nihilistic one, as shown in his new voice lines and backstory.
• Mad Paradox and Herrscher are the only two 3rd job characters that aren't physical beings.
• Mad Paradox's Job Change Item, Mad Paradox's Shattered Flask, might refer to the flask of poison from the Schrödinger's cat experiment.
