Eh, just figured I'd put something recognizable on the tag there. I would very much plan on them being on the G-corp side of things, at least once they reach an understanding.
(it would be a VERY good idea to mute the video before you click play to see their powers. Very loud rock music.)
>Times for demonstrations.
0:20 to 0:45 Soul resonance. (see below)
1:12 to 1:39 (Partial transformations)
Other times (Disregarded. The punch at the end is never going to happen.)
>Name: Maka Albarn
>Age: 23 (older than the video, time has passed in my mind.)
>Race: Weapon?
>Origin: Soul Eater Anime
>Clothing: A DWMA uniform robe/top and skirt as seen in the video.
>Appearance: Her appearance hasn't changed much over the passage of time from the video above to "present day."
Blonde hair, green eyes. Height. (about 5 ft 9 inches) generally older looking than in the video though.
>Weapons: Fights unarmed, arming herself instead with the power to (albeit limitedly) transform.
>Powers
>Partial Transformation: Can change or extend parts of her body into scythe like blades at will, using this as her main method of attacking solo.
>Full Transformation: (adapted and assumed, as never actually seen in the series.) Turns entirely into a conscious two-handed scythe. Reversible at will.
>Soul Resonance: An interesting ability. Channeling the power of two souls together creates a sort of magic, normally used to empower transformed weapons like herself (or her fighting partner and friend in the video above.)The effect of the combined power is usually specific to the weapon, but can adapt into stronger or weaker forms. The attack used in the video above is specific to scythes, and can roughly be summarized as the stages of the base attack "Witch Hunter."
>Soul Sight: Maka always had the capability to transform into a weapon, though rarely ever used it. She instead decided to train to wield the transforming weapons as a "Meister." (explained in backstory.) "Meisters" essentially train these weapons by slaying, capturing, and infusing them with the souls of irredeemably evil human beings. To be able to identify this, "Meisters," when focusing specifically on the task, can see the soul within someone, and to a limited extent, gather slight details on their nature. This can actually be used from a fair distance, used mostly to locate their targets. It's almost like a radar for living things that spans a certain distance, even through closed doors and walls.
>Weaknesses:
>When Fully transformed, though conscious and able to control their transformation, they are a weapon. Not a flying possessed weapon, a weapon. As such, to be at all useful there has to be someone around both willing and able to wield them as such.
>Soul Resonance requires one of either combatant to be fully transformed. As such, I believe it's safe to say she'll only be able to use this while she is fully transformed. After all, it'd be pretty uncommon to find someone else with the same ability. A secondary downside comes from the nature of this ability. The reason everyone and their brother doesn't wield one such weapon isn't just practicality. Though anyone can pick up a stick and swing it, such is not the case with weapons like Maka's transformation.
Maka is as much a person as a weapon, as is every weapon from the series. As such there is more than a little room to be picky about who swings them around. It's actually to the point where, if she and whoever tries to pick her up are too angry with or not accepting towards each other, that person cannot sync with her until the issue is resolved. The result? Involuntary, painful shocks to said person when in contact with even the not so sharp bits on her transformation.
>Soul Sight, although usable at long range, has two downsides. Firstly, detailed information is very hard to gather from a distance. Second, the souls seen are not as detailed as, say, an outline of the person they are tracking, which gets to be very confusing should that target run through a large enough crowd. (for an example of what she can see, skip to the very end of the demonstration video. Those blue wisps at around 3:04 are the souls she can see.) The only exception is the soul of a witch, which looks different for reasons explained below.
>Backstory: Maka Albarn is from the Anime, "Soul Eater." In the context of that world, the Grim Reaper was long ago, and remains, a witch hunter of sorts. Alas, complications from an extremely powerful demon called Kishin (if your watching the English Dub) which even he could not destroy bound him to where he imprisoned it. The problem is, while a city he later rules is built above the demon's "Tomb" he cannot venture out of it physically for very long. The answer came from the only witch to ever escape him, who was so traitorous to her own kind, that she created the very first transformable weapons using the souls of other witches.
These weapons had magical capabilities, in that they were in fact Sentient, and able to take a human form. Fast forward many, many years later, and we have the up and running DWMA. (Death Weapon Meister Academy) Where people with the particular talent to perceive into the souls of living things are trained from youth to wield said Sentient weapons. These weapons, who are in fact more human than one would think for the term, have a mission alongside their wielders. The wielders train their weapons by "feeding" them the souls of 99 Irredeemably evil human beings (in the pilot episode, Maka and her weapon take down Jack the Ripper, for example) ... and one witch. The weapons, once this training is complete, get amazingly powerful afterwards. While they get this power, however, they are sent to help The Grim Reaper do his job, literally becoming a part of his own personal arsenal. Maka's father was one such weapon, and his wielder was also her mother. Not an uncommon thing, considering they spend most of their lives/childhood training a single weapon. It can be pretty difficult to separate.
So Maka, now in her 20's has completed her weapon's training quite some time ago. Preferring now to train herself, rather than a new partner.
