Mariposa

Summary
Mariposa is an ancient angel, who, many years in the past, during her time as one of Observer’s angels, met a comparatively young Milky Way. Although Milky Way was still rather reclusive at the time, her and Mariposa eventually became good friends, and Milky Way’s influence led Mariposa to leave Observer’s ranks to pursue her own dreams.

Appearance / Personality
Mariposa is an angel of average height, though she is somewhat muscular and chubby. She has dark brown skin, light brown eyes, and very long, messy dark brown hair, with long bangs. Her hair is dark enough to be mistaken for black, and is very curly. She has a single pair of wings, somewhat similar to those of a butterfly, but not quite - they are ornate, magical, and colorful. Finally, she has a bright, bright halo. She wears simple clothes, and likes trench coats and wide-brimmed hats, as well as knee-high lace-up boots.

Mariposa is, in short, a sweetheart. She is gentle, kind, humble, and quiet. She is very thoughtful and considerate, and is devoted to maintaining safety and security across the galaxy when possible. Although she hates conflict and would much rather talk things out, she has a very good understanding of others, and if she decides to fight, she will fight at her full potential and will go for a painless kill as quickly as possible.

She is one of the few mages in the galaxy skilled enough to hold her own against the likes of Observer, Milky Way, and SOLSTICE in combat, and is widely considered to be one of the greatest martial artists known by the TGWA. Mariposa also excels at reading others and adapting to their combat styles based on observation, even without Ether, and is a phenomenal teacher who has taught many powerful mages, including Kuna and Fuse.

Weaknesses: Mariposa tries to avoid fighting as much as she can, though she never holds back when she decides to fight.

Abilities
Angel: As an angel, Mariposa has the traits and powers expected of one. This leads to her large, colorful, and ornate magical wings, and her bright halo. Her wings and halo aid her in calculations and spellcasting, both passively and actively. Unsurprisingly, she has immense magical and physical strength.
 * Halo: The halo of an angel is actually a complex reality wheel, passively maintained without draining any energy. This reality wheel designates an angel as a fundamental being of Reality - therefore, the only way to kill an angel is to defy reality through magic, making them notoriously difficult to permanently kill. In addition, a halo contains the magical information that makes up an angel’s existence. Through this, an angel can regenerate from wounds, whether they be minor or extensive and severe.
 * Wings: Mariposa’s wings are composed mainly out of magic and ether, and interlaid with constantly shifting magic circles. Although they do not resemble the wings of other angels, they have all the same properties - she can use them to draw in and absorb magical energy, as well as emit and manipulate magnetic fields. In addition, she can fire magic-based attacks from them. Due to their magical properties, she can use them to shield herself from attacks. Of course, she can also use them for flight, but they aren’t necessary for this.

Magic: The act of using one's understanding and willpower to direct the power of Fantasy. As an angel, Mariposa has naturally expansive magical powers, along with a wealth of natural understanding. Due to her relatively reclusive and thoughtful nature, Mariposa has had a lot of time over her long life to refine her knowledge and her skills.

Mariposa’s magic grants her many abilities, including a significant portion of her superhuman abilities. It sustains a near-constant, 360° magical image of her surroundings that is far more reliable than her eyes and much harder to circumvent. It also allows her easily sustained, near-effortless flight.
 * Absolute Barrier: A magical barrier that protects the user from external manipulation and attack, on every level of existence. An Absolute Barrier protects the user’s body, mind, and soul - their cells and atoms, the magical and physical forces keeping them together, and everything else. It is akin to a magical immune system, protecting the mage from threats and adapting to future attack. It passively protects the user from most types of attack, manipulation, and control, as long as the barrier is strong enough - a witch of substantially greater power can punch straight through one. An Absolute Barrier is passively maintained at all times, even in sleep, requiring no energy to maintain, and can only be removed by a stronger witch actively stripping it away, or by the user consciously lowering them.

Ether: A unique magical power Mariposa unlocked through her halo. Ether is a spiritual energy that exists all across the universe, dispersed through all matter and energy. Through her powers, Mariposa can manipulate the essence of ether. When she is controlling it, it resembles a fine blue mist.

Through ether, Mariposa can read the souls of others to gain insight into their soul and self. She tends to do this before combat to try and see if her opponent has the capacity or possibility for redemption. In addition, she can channel her soul - and those of others - and latent spiritual energy into all sorts of magical attacks and spells. As all sorts of planetary bodies have their own spiritual energies, she can draw upon and manipulate them as well.

In essence, ether is linked to the concept of magnetism, and through this link, Mariposa can manipulate magnetism in its many, many forms, on a level both physical and spiritual. As she has control over magnetic fields, she can manipulate and move particles, and, through this, she can disassemble and reassemble objects on the quantum level.
 * Attraction / Repulsion: By tuning herself into the spiritual frequency of her opponent, Mariposa can manipulate spiritual magnetism to pull their soul - and their body - towards her. Or towards whatever else she designates as a magnetic anchor. No amount of normal physical resistance is enough to resist the spiritual pull of these techniques - only magic can.
 * Forcefield: Mariposa can manipulate ether and magnetic fields to create a forcefield that defracts, reflects, and redirects magic and other forms of attack fairly easily, releasing it into the cosmic background of space and protecting herself from harm.
 * Magnet Sphere: A blue orb of magical energy, constructed out of ether. These spheres strip whatever they touch of both their ether and their magnetic charge/fields, taking it into themselves. This destroys whatever they touch in the process, as it loses all the magnetism keeping it together.

Explosion: One of Mariposa’s unique magical powers, and the power that she was most famed for during her employment by Observer. Through a combination of Ether and her other magical talents, Mariposa can “prime” materials and objects she touches - whether physically or with her magic.

These primed materials can be detonated whenever she pleases - this can be when she specifically triggers the explosion, or when a specific condition is met. Either way, upon detonation, the primed object is annihilated on every level simultaneously - even on a conceptual level, leaving a huge, gaping hole in their conceptual origin of her target.

Her explosions tend not to be specialized towards destroying anything in particular, though she can alter the primer to better suit the destruction of certain things. A primed object will remain primed indefinitely if not detonated, unless it is deliberately cancelled, and Mariposa can detonate it from any range, at any time.

When used in combination with Ether and Milky Way Butterfly, Mariposa’s explosives are extremely dangerous and tend to be almost invariably lethal.

Milky Way Butterfly: A physical and spiritual martial art developed by Mariposa (with Milky Way’s help) for her own use. Due to her long lifespan, Mariposa has had lots of time to master her martial arts. Her martial expertise and skill is enough for her to match the likes of SOLSTICE in physical combat.

Milky Way Butterfly is a martial art dedicated to grace, speed, and finesse. In addition, the entire martial art is built around Mariposa’s desire to finish fights as quickly and painlessly as possible. When used with ether, Milky Way Butterfly grants her considerably increased physical and magical capabilities by pumping ether through her body.

Reality Wheel: One of the most advanced and powerful magical techniques. A reality wheel acts as a powerful magical extension of its user, and allows its user to change the nature of reality within its range. Reality wheels are incredibly difficult to use and properly control. In addition, they tend to drain a lot of energy and stamina, making it difficult to use them for extended periods of time, although this can be mitigated by more powerful mages.
 * Relative Lightspeed Spiral: A type of reality wheel, created and utilized with the intent of allowing technical faster-than-light movement. It functions by defining the user as their own universe - and in that universe, the speed of light is a variable they can change. So by increasing the speed of light for themselves, they can accelerate past what the rest of the universe defines as the speed of light.
