[ Abilities ]
Possession - Being a 'Ghost', Alma can enter the bodies of the living, causing them to act and speak of her own will.
This can be very useful, as some unskilled humans cannot even really see her. The duration of her stay depends upon her 'vicitim's
soul strength. The stronger they are, the more easily they can fight her off and push her from themselves.
Spectral Flow - This is the ability to effortlessly move through any object, wall, or person. Her normal state of being
is actually to be as a solid, touchable individual, so she must be conscious of her transparency to be able to use it. It
is nearly impossible to harm her with usual means, or even get a hold of her body without simply passing through her. Her
body can fully materialize, though, from fear of being afflicted, she will rarely do so.
Rattling Chains - Being burdened with heavy shackles and chains that will not leave her body, even in full Spectral Flow,
Alma must both, make use, and be aware that her chains are a weapon. She may use these, when in full materialization, to constrict
her enemy's movements. The greatest downfall of this ability is that once she captures them, she cannot use her Possession
against them as her body must remain solid to use the chains.
White Noise - This ability allows Alma to amplify her soul wavelength to the point where she can actually cause a sound
from it. It takes up great amounts of her energy, so it must be used sparingly. The vibrations themselves turn white, and
all that are around, in the vicinity of this Noise will hear a deafening static like screeching, able to disrupt other wavelengths
or even cancel them out when she is at her fullest power. Another portion of this ability will allow Alma to channel her wavelength
over a distance, and actually be able to speak to someone else's soul. This is also rare, especially since she has yet to
trust a person enough to bond with their soul on a personal level.

O-fuda Sutra - This seal is placed on her lower back and is believed to keep her bodiless soul tied to the world of the
living. If it is removed, the effects are unknown, however Alma feels that it will send her soul to an eternal rest, or otherwise
leave her in the state of any regular soul.

Though it may seem odd, Alma is a soul without a body. However, she is not the run of the mill soul that simply floats
in place until captured or eaten. She, by way of an O-fuda seal, is bound to this world, more so with a human form, most likely
the one she had when she was living. She remembers nothing from the point before she was awakened in her current state, or
that if she is even truly 'dead' in the first place. Feeling that there is something greater than a simple sutra tying her
to this world, Alma finds herself constantly confused and conflicted with finding an answer so that she can either, rest in
peace when she is finished, or come back to 'life' and remain here as a normal individual.
Although nothing has been fully confirmed, since she had awakened to her disembodied state in the castle of Baba Yaga,
that perhaps it was Witch magic which put her in this realm between the living and the deceased. This could also be a form
of an out-of-body experience, and the art of removing a soul from it's human vessel without actually killing the shell of
a person. Then again, she has no idea about the facts on this matter, so she continues to be kept in the dark about all of
the important details of her being.
Once Arachne decided to make use of her 'skills', Alma was sent out to fight a Death Scythe on her own. This Weapon, however,
was a one-man team, the Holy Guillotine, Justin Law. Because of her abilities, Justin could not harm her, but as the fight
dragged on, her strength weakened, and so did her special Ghost like attributes. Justin would have drawn a final blow on her
already seemingly deceased self, however the young Priest was a man of compassion, and knew that she did not intend to injure
him throughout their entire battle. he took it easy on her, and she was grateful for this, eventually leaving Baba Yaga completely
to seek out the blonde that gave her soul good feelings, just by being near him. Alma did eventually find Justin, and he accepted
her with open arms.

[ Personality and Soul Type ]
She acts the way she is, a fragile being. The O-fuda sutra on her back is the only thing really tying her in her current
state of semi life, and if it is removed, she believes this would render her as a normal soul. Timid and rather pathetic,
Alma knows how easily the sutra can be damaged, and often stays in a state of de-materialization. She is often afraid of anything
and everything, including the kindest of people, and is constantly worried over the small things that mean nothing in the
long run. Despite her various techniques for fighting, Alma truly hates to be in a conflict of any sort.
