Suiren Nakano is the oldest and strongest child of Raido Nakano and Naazariya from another timeline and the only living person from that timeline. She was once known as one of Izanagi's most exceptional Valkyries and had earned a number of aliases from such a standing. After the death of her entire family, she traveled to the main timeline with the help of her mentor and Izanami Mikoto in the hopes of getting to see her family again.
In her old timeline her mastery over the afterlife led people to refer to her by many names such as the Astral Princess, but in this timeline there is but one alias that demons have begun using. Cocytus.
Suiren has a strong family resemblance to both her mother and father, especially her mother who's figure she inherited. The few in main timeline who have seen Suiren describe her as a cold beauty whose smell inexplicably reminds them of ghosts. Someone they want to approach, but are too terrified of her to do so. She often has rigid posture with an expression that seems to say if bothered too much she will kill you and use your entrails to jump rope. It is clear from her demeanor she is someone who has important things to and isn't allowing herself to indulge in fun or distractions until that is finished. Occasionally hints of the excited and curious girl she once was surfaces to reveal the socialite demeanor she once had. Those who do see this side often joke about how almost dying to see it was worth it.
Suiren has thick long bright orange hair that she normally keeps in a ponytail to fall past her shoulders to reach the middle of her back. Her bangs frame the right side of her face in such a way that the strands of hair on the side of her face that fall a few inches past her right eye makes a 90 degree angle with the part of her bangs covering her forehead.
In terms of figure, Suiren is described as somewhere between her mother and father. Not as buxom as her mother while at the same time not as chiseled as her father. She has a slender figure just shy of being shaped like an hourglass with toned legs, moderately large breasts, and slim arms. Thanks to the regeneration granted to her through her contract with Izanagi there isn't a single scar, bruise, or blemish on her body. If one ignores her dangerous expression it would be hard to tell that she has been trained to fight as there is nothing about her body to suggest she has ever fought. Looks like she works out a lot sure, but not as though she has ever seen combat. This has lead quite a few people to underestimate her and none of those people are alive to learn from their mistake.
In order to avoid distractions, Suiren has recently adopted to wearing attire that doesn't draw too much attention. She wears a form fitting plain blue or black sleeveless shirt, a matching form fitting short pants, plain brown cloak, and elbow braces. She doesn't wear any jewelry to tempt thieves and she makes sure her clothes look worn to make it clear she has little money. The only possession she has is a single picture of her parents which keeps hidden in the inside pocket of her cloak alongside a grimiore.
Personality[]
Suiren's joy at seeing a spirit as a child
Suiren is a girl currently filled with regret. Her excitement over supernatural creatures like ghosts and spirits lead her to spend most of her days in the Astral Realm with her mentor and his other contractees and not as much time with her mother and father which she now earns for. There are still small traces of the curious, charismatic, and afterlife loving girl, but the side is repressed by her desire to reconnect with her parents from another timeline. She currently cares for nothing, but to see her parents again. She knows they won't truly be her parents, but doesn't seem to care in the slightest.
She has developed a great loathing of people who don't appreciate their family and will attack these people with the same amount of ruthlessness her mother would when defending the Nakkai Islands. She isn't above knocking the crap out of children not appreciative of their parents just so they run crying back to their parents mother or father they were just arguing with. In her eyes people who don't realize how important family is are better off death.
She includes her past self among those deserving of death, which hints at the bottomless self hatred that is hidden just under the surface. Her acts of aggression especially against children she does because she is either unable or unwilling to kill her past self and so has decided to let her anger out on children her age who act like her past self.

Prior to Family's Death[]
Depending on who you asked Suiren prior to her family's death would have been described one of two ways. A callous, uncaring, oddball who is completely disconnected to social norms or a very caring, hardworking, and charismatic girl who is seemingly always happy. Which view of her is corrected depends on whether you are of the living or the dead. If one wants a description of Suiren from an unbiased source Izanagi is the closest one can find. He would have described the past Suiren as, "A member of the living who focuses too much on the dead." She was callous and bored of the living while at the same time excited and kindhearted to denizens of the afterlife, wandering souls, and spirits. She was viewed as an oddball by the living only because she followed the social customs of the afterlife, which are very different to the social customs the living are used to. Her fault lie in how she refused to adhere to the customs of the living when outside of the afterlife because she once believed everything after life was better than life itself. There are countless examples of this contrast, but the three most apparent examples are her views of modesty, trust, and life vs. death.
The first example is modesty and her views on the body vs. the soul. Back in her old timeline the few friends she had outside of the afterlife would have described her as very immodest. She didn't walk around naked constantly, but she didn't care about being seen naked nor did she understand why others were bothered by it. She wore clothes because she wanted to not to cover herself and if clothes ever made her uncomfortable she saw no need to stay uncomfortable. In simpler terms so long as her physical body wasn't giving her issues she didn't care about it, who looked at it, or what happened to it. It wasn't that she didn't care if she made people uncomfortable, but because she wasn't aware they were uncomfortable. In her head there was no reason to be uncomfortable with physical nakedness. She wasn't immodest though; she just had different views of modesty that reflected the afterlife where she spent 99% of her time. When she wasn't sleeping at home she was there. A place made up of the souls of the deceased. Made up of people who have left their bodies behind and now live their after life in the world of the dead as shapeless souls. Why would such people care about the body and growing up in their society why should Suiren? Sure, Suiren didn't care about being seen physically naked, but she wasn't a savage who walked around with her soul bare for all to see in its entirety. Yes, she didn't seem to get people wanted privacy while changing. However, she wasn't a creep who leered at your soul by reading it and learning all of your deepest darkest secrets. No, Suiren wasn't immodest. She just valued spiritual modesty over physical modesty just like the people in the afterlife. She was used to being around people who didn't have bodies and were shapeless souls and thus didn't need ideas of physical modesty. While everyone was calling her immodest she was thinking of them as being savages for walking around with their souls easy to read. Sure, with how powerful she is it is impossible to cover the soul enough by the afterlife norms. If she wants to read a soul nothing anyone can do can stop her. However, the fact she didn't try to read souls shows that it isn't she lacked standards, but that she had different standards.
Another example is trust. In the land of the living people would describe Suiren as naive or overly trusting. The type of person who would give an obviously untrustworthy person money because they promised to pay her back. What the people from the land of living failed to realize is that Suien wasn't stupid. She knew she wouldn't get the money, but she didn't care and not just because she was once indifferent to the living. She spent her time in the afterlife. Around souls who were already dead. What is the worst that can happen in the afterlife from trusting the wrong people? Death? They are already dead. Loss of needed resources? What resources? Residents of the afterlife don't need anything. Physical pain like torture? They lack a physical body and normal residents are too weak to inflict spiritual pain. For residents of the afterlife there is zero reason not to trust someone. If they are betrayed it is so insignificant it doesn't matter and if they aren't that's great. Suiren adopted this view and just like her modesty brought it to the land of the living out of habit.
Then there is how her views of life and death used to be flipped on its head. In the afterlife people viewed death the same way the living viewed the beginning of life and viewed the beginning of life the same way the living viewed death. Death means being "born" into the afterlife while birth can mean having your soul recycled and leave the afterlife if Izanagi choose to instead of allowing Life to create a new soul. When Acnologia destroyed Earth Land in her timeline she didn't care about the deaths she cared because it would mean finding homes for the new residents. She cared because she knew would be overworked. This made her appear as a person very indifferent toward life and that is because she was. However, not because she was callous but because she genuinely thought death was something to be celebrated. Death means leaving the boring world of the living and going to the always exciting world of the afterlife.
History[]
Suiren was born on the base of Tartaros at an unknown date to Raido Nakano and Naazariya. Suiren didn't have much of a childhood and her mother would often get angry at her for running off to look for ghosts or spirits instead of doing what she was supposed to do and her father was often busy killing demons. This forced Suiren to go up quickly and learn how to entertain herself, which for her meant roaming around the base looking for ghosts and spirits. Growing up it was clear she was a daddy's girl. Just like what would be the case for her other siblings her mom would only really talk to her when needed, but unlike Naazanko, Suiren didn't care all to much due to her preference for her father. Things changed one night when she left the base with her parents to the Nakkai Islands. A five year old Suiren ran off having seen a spirit at last. She chased after and played with it for several hours all the while getting completely lost in the forest. No one quite knows why the spirit did what it did next. Some believe it was as thanks for playing with it, some believe it was sent by Izanagi, and others believe it was because it saw something in Suiren. Whatever the reason was the spirit decided to use its spiritual energies to modify Suiren's demon factor to turn the young Suiren into a unique combination of a spirit, demon, and a human. When her father found her in the morning Suiren was far stronger than when she was the night before.
The power proved to great for Suiren and it began corrupting her; urging her to drain the souls of any living thing she could get her hand's on even when they got back to the base. Things came to a head when Suiren almost killed an entire small town of humans when out with her father by draining them of their soul one by one. Izanagi Okami, the absolute ruler of the afterlife in her timeline, appeared on the island the very next day offering to help by making a contract with her to help control her power then teaching her how to use it. The next several years of Suiren's life was spent mostly in the Astral Realm. She only came home to sleep in her bed, to guard the island whenever her mom forced her once her family moved their, or to spend time with her father. When she wasn't needed to guard the island she would be gone before anyone got up. Suiren loved the Astral Realm and began finding the Earth Land and how it lacked spectral stuff by comparison boring leading to her grow distant with her family.
Possibly out of jealousy that Suiren had found a good life, one of her siblings confronted her one day. Suiren's only response was declaring she could take this sibling on with both hands tied behind her back and she did just that marking the first time she showed her family just how far she had come. The sibling not knowing how to deal with her unique curse and being unable to overcome the training and real life experience provided to her by a being who created an entire realm. None of them dared step out of line with her again after humiliating them to such a degree.
Suiren and Izanami fighting like usual
Suiren continued living her life and maintaining her distance from her family. Seeing her continued being a rare sight for her family and she only really had the energy and motivation to talk to her dad when she was around them. In the Astral Realm though, Suiren was incredibly social and known to have many friends and even became engaged to a Yōkai. She had intense rivalry with Izanami Mikoto because Izanami saw her as a threat to her standing as Izanagi's right hand woman. If people from the land of the living saw how she acted in the land of the dead they would remark how the difference is as drastic as night and day. She loved the afterlife and its denizens and found the land of the living plain and boring by comparison.
For training, Suiren trained hard with Izanagi and every day on how to use her curse and receiving an education from Izanami. When she wasn't with him her body was being honed by three deities who held nothing back with her physical training. Eventually though Suiren managed to reach a level where she was expected as one of Izanagi's valkyries, which is an elite group of warriors tasked with helping Shinigami Auxiliaries maintain the balance of life and death. She still had her physical and curse training, but not as much as before for that time was instead used for her new job. During her first week as a valkyrie her parents and siblings could tell something had changed in Suiren's schedule by her increased exhaustion at home, but only her dad cared enough to ask about it.
Suiren was very engrossed in her life in the world of the death and so barely even noticed when Acnologia destroyed Earth Land and her family moved the Nakkai Islands where they were currently living to Tehom. Her only response to such events was something along the lines of dreading the increased work load such was her apathy toward the realm of the living. Shortly after moving to Tehom she quickly got back into the rhythm of her daily life. While Suiren didn't show any appreciation toward her family she still preferred coming home to a full house over an empty one. She was happy and this life continued for many years. One day though things took a turn for turn for the worst when she got home and found her entire family dead with her father minutes away from joining the rest of them. That moment was like a slap in the face to her because it made her realize how awful of a person and distant she was. Her father asked her to eat his soul and use his magic to better defend herself. Feeling like she wanted to do something right for once in relation to her family she agreed and her father passed she ate his soul with her tears staining her face. After eating she made his magic her own to transform her into the next Cryomancer.
Suiren didn't feel hope was completely lost though; the afterlife was like her backyard and she swore if she couldn't be a good family member in the land of the living she would be one in the land of the dead. However, when she got there Izanagi told her he had already recycled their souls into something new. Hearing this destroyed what was left and she spent the next days hidden away somewhere in the Astral Realm filled with self loathing. One day though she remembered learning about the Eclipse Gate from Izanami and asked Izanagi if with his great power he could do something similar and promising him that this time around she would cherish life and her family. This is apparently what he wanted had wanted to hear from Suiren for a very long time because in that very moment he had wide smile as he and Izanami used their immense power to create something close to it allowing them to send themselves and Suiren to a different timeline where her family still lived. When asked if she would like to bring more with her than what she currently has Suiren's only response was to proclaim that everything she wants is at her destination. The very moment she arrived she separated ways with her old mentors and began searching for her mother and father in Tehom.
Synopsis[]
Equipment[]
Winter Solstice: Suiren has in her possession the Winter Solstice grimiore from her timeline. She has yet to use it and if she ever does, she will gain full access to the Ice Devil Slayer Magic she gained from her father's soul when he died.
Soul Lacrima: Soul Lacrima is a new type of Lacrima invented by Suiren. This Lacrima can hold the souls extracted by Soul Harvest for her to use or eat at a later date. If the wails are anything to go by, souls trapped in the Lacrima have some degree of consciousness and are in a constant state of pain. Currently she doesn't have any Soul Lacrima on her because she left all of the ones she had in her timeline and has yet to find time to create more. When Soul Lacrima are empty of souls they will begin drawing in and absorbing spiria to be used at a later date.
Curse, Magic and Abilities[]
Astral Curse[]
Suiren manifesting death force
Astral Curse is a Curse that feeds off the fear, despair, and uncertainty that everyone has regarding death and the afterlife. When Suiren came into contact with a spirit as a child its spiritual energies modified her demon factor much in the same way it would to a magic origin if trying to grant a Slayer Magic. However, instead of granting her a Slayer Magic it granted her a unique never before seen Curse called the Astral Curse. This curse allows her to combine the spiritual energies generated by her modified demon factor with a massive amount of magical barrier particles and her curse power to create death-force, which is the essence of death and the afterlife and what this curse revolves around creating and manipulating.
Death force is that which causes things to rot, wither, and decay. Death force doesn't simply cause things to decay like in the case of Death Magic, but it is better described as death given a physical form. It brings decay in the same way fire brings heat. This spiritual energy can leave a trail of death, destruction, and decay in its path and only other spiritual forces can stop it. This makes it very difficult to deal with because it will simply phase through any obstacles in its way in order to reach its target. This is probably why very few have fought Suiren and lived to tell about it because most don't know how to deal with it and the few who do usually can't deal with it effectively enough to save them. Despite its power though Suiren rarely uses the natural form of death force to attack because what else it can do and what it can turn into is far more useful.
Suiren growing wings made of astral energy
It also gives Suiren the ability to create and manipulate the forces of the astral plane and afterlife. The place where dreams, the mind, and spirits reside. She can use death force to summon and command astral energy or ectoplasm, summon or control spirits or phantoms, summon and control ghosts, mimic the attributes of various spirits and phantoms, and manipulate the dreams of others. Death-force also allows her to interact with souls and spirits in various ways. She can project her own soul from her body or someone else's, trap souls or spirits, absorb or destroy souls, receive visions of the future from spirits, gain various psychic powers from spirits, and other such things.
Essentially there is nothing she can't do with the astral plane and its forces making it vastly superior to the Absorption Curse in every way possible. No Absorption Curse user of any level can compete with what she is capable of doing. What the strongest Absorption Curse user can do with souls with their highest tier jinx she can do with a mere swipe of her hand. However, it should be noted that her powers are reduced greatly when she is in Earth Land even though she is still more than capable of taking down powerful foes and still completely out of the league of any Absorption Curse demon. Only when she is in the Astral Realm does she have full access to her abilities.
One unique aspect of her Curse is due to the spiritual energies that her demon form generates the Astral Curse is able to interact with Spirit Arts as though it were one demonstrated by how she once dispelled the spells from the Demons' Parade Spirit Art with a snap of her fingers implying that her curse power is some strange union between curse and spirit power.
Subspecies Abilities[]
Death Drive:
Suiren's Death Drive
Death Drive is a spiritual ability that allows Suiren to draw power from her proximity to death due to the increase ease of drawing power from the afterlife. The closer to death she gets the stronger her body and curse power becomes.
Astral Manipulation: Astral Manipulation is an ability that allows Suiren to manipulate all things relating to souls and spirits with her mind including astral energy. Her control over such things is absolute to a point where ice has a better chance refusing an Ice Devil Slayer than such things have with refusing her will. She has demonstrated this numerous times by forcing Celestial Spirits to turn on the person who summoned them, hijack objects possessed through Human Possession in order to attack the person who created them, or negate Animal Possession. In the Astral Realm she once defused an uprising by taking control of an entire country of ghosts and forced each and every ghost to kneel to Izanagi. Admittedly she is unable to use this ability on that level outside of the Astral Realm. Outside of the Astral Realm her limit appears to be an entire city of ghosts. Currently the only person who has shown more control over spirits and souls than her is Izanagi himself. The one flaw this ability has is she has unlike Izanagi she has trouble manipulating anything that is not fully a spirit. For example, she can't manipulate a demon-spirit hybrid very well though she can easily manipulate a spirit or wandering soul of a demon. It takes her full attention to control just one or two spiritual hybrids. The greatest testament to her control over souls is how in her timeline Izanagi claimed Suiren has the potential to take his place should he ever retire, but that she still has a far way to go.
Psychic Manipulation:
Death Sense: Suiren has the ability to sense coming death and the actual death of those around. She can tell exactly how a person close to death is going to die and exactly when they will die down to the millisecond with no margin of error. She is also able to tell when a family member or someone she loves dies regardless of where they are. Through long meditation she is also able to predict when a person is going to die several decades in advance.
Soul Eater: Soul Eater is an ability that allows Suiren to feast on the souls of others to heal and enhance her body. She can feast on the spirits of the dead that roam the world around her, Spiria, or a soul extracted from a person. As magic is the physical embodiment of the soul, eating the soul of a living person can allow her the option to obtain that person's magic. She is very picky about the magic she obtains though and only allows her body to draw out the most powerful magic from souls which is why to date the only magic she has obtained though soul eating is her father's Ice Devil Slayer Magic. Seiren has stated that souls do have taste and its taste depends on the magic of the person as well as their personality. If the fact that 98% of her diet now consists of souls is anything to go by the taste appears to be far greater than normal food. The last 2% of her food intake that consists of normal food only exists because she doesn't want to be rude and not eat when at a table with someone which implies souls do provide her with enough nutrition to live on.
Indomitable Soul: Suiren's curse has greatly strengthened her soul far beyond that of any ordinary demon. This is best seen in her Resurrection ability where she is able to deny death and reattach her soul to her body up to twice a day through the sheer strength of her soul although it is very exhausting. Once she does resurrect whatever the fatal wound was is removed. The strength of her soul also grants her immunity against things that would try to damage, take, or trap her soul.
Astral Immunity: Suiren is not just immune to her soul being damaged, but all spiritual things in general. She is also immune to all things obtained through spiritual means such as Fire Magic if it was obtained by absorbing someone's soul.
Spiritual Awareness: Suiren has a very high spiritual awareness. She is able to recognize a person just by their soul even if they have reincarnated and if they have reincarnated she can tell by what means by the condition of their soul. She is also able to see wandering soul which is a feat that should be impossible. When she meditates for long enough she can sense the location of each and every wandering ghost, spirit, etc. in whatever world she is in. On a similar note, she is able to track someone by their soul no matter where they run or how they try to hide by meditating for long periods of time. She can also obtain vast amounts of information on someone by reading their soul whether the soul is in a body or free standing like a ghost or astral projection. When people in her old timeline would say she could peer into your soul to see past any facade they meant that in a very literal sense. In her old timeline the only person better at sensing spiritual stuff is her mentor who was the one true lord of the afterlife in their original timeline.
Jinxes[]
Soul Harvest:
Suiren removing a human's soul
Soul Harvest is Suiren's simplest and most dangerous jinx and the reason why she wasn't just Izanagi's top Valkyrie, but his most terrifying assassin. She wasn't always such a cold person, but once was someone known to be very friendly and easy to get along with, which for purposes for this jinx is very deadly. It allows her as the name suggests to remove the soul of anyone whom she has established some sort of connection with typically for the purposes of consuming. In theory there is no soul she can't remove meaning there is no soul she can't safely eat and thus no one she can't kill. The problem is the jinx's drawback. The stronger the individual is the greater the connection must be. For instance brief physical physical contact like touching them with her hand is enough to remove the souls of those weaker than her. However, to take the soul of someone strong such as a dragon, god, or phoenix she needs to establish a better connection such as an extended hug. This makes the jinx useless in combat for the most part because people she can instantly kill with this jinx are also the same people she would have beaten in a fight anyway and establishing a strong connection to kill someone in the middle of combat is too hard. She might not be able to take the entire soul of such creatures she is able to small pieces after punching or kicking them to gradually kill them. What makes this jinx terrifying is how physical contact isn't the only way to meet the jinx's requirements. Friendship or any form of relationship, being connected through something like Organic Link Magic, or performing a Unison Raid with someone all count. It doesn't matter if the connection is physical, personal, spiritual, or magical.
Power Sample: Power Sample is a jinx that is only usable once se has consumed a bit of a mage's soul. She can use astral energy to break down the tiny bit of soul into spiritual information to use as a blueprint to temporarily transform her own soul into an exact copy for a maximum of 20 seconds. The connection magic and the soul has grants her the ability to use the same magic they can and manipulate the opponent's spells as though they were her own until Suiren's soul reverts to its normal state.
Language of the Soul: Language of the Soul is a method of soul reading that allows Suiren to understand anyone regardless of what languages they speak, codes they use, or how they encrypt their words whether it be through lies, natural, or supernatural means. With this no one can lie to Suiren. Izanagi's first lesson to Suiren was "Death transcends all barriers" and this jinx is that lesson take to its absolute zenith. By reading the surface level of a soul she is able to gain an impression of a person's intent allowing her to understand people. Of course in the past she has used this in combination with this jinx's counterpart to understand and comunicate with people whose language she doesn't speak, but it has purposes in battle as well. In a fight she is able to gain a vague impression of what an opponent is intending to do making it seem as though she has the same danger sense common in her uncle's side of the family.
Speak from the Heart: Speak from the Heart is the inverse of Language of the Soul. Instead of reading intentions from a soul she is able to send her own intentions from her soul to someone else's so that regardless of language they are able to perfectly understand what Suiren is saying.
Spirit Pressure:
Suiren destroying the ground around her with just her spirit pressure
Spirit Pressure is the soul variant of stuff like magic pressure or curse pressure and this jinx allows her to exert it as a means of intimidation. Suiren has often described this jinx as something akin to shaking a soda bottle and loosening the top slightly to repressurize the container. She isn't exerting her actual soul, but the pressure of her soul. In the case of spirit pressure it shows itself as an aura of spiritual energies; the same kind that her demon factor creates. In addition to instilling fear on those whose souls are weaker than her own, which most are, it can also push enemy's back and paralyze those with inferior souls. To those with high spiritual awareness her spirit pressure can cause spiritual sensory damage in the same way loud noise can damage the ears. Depending on how close they are when she releases her spirit pressure and how attuned they are to spirits the damage may be great enough to blind their spiritual awareness preventing them from ever sensing spirits or ghosts again. It also has defensive and supplementary uses as well. It can completely obliterate any hexes placed on her even those from gods or primordial demons. Suiren's spirit pressure is stronger than the curse and magic pressure of all original nine Demon Gates put together as one may expect from one with an indomitable soul. Her spirit pressure is so terrifying she has made creatures like devil kings, dragon kings, and high gods tremble in abject terror with the only ones managing to remain unphased are people as strong as Izanagi.
Spirit Pressure Control: Spirit Pressure Control is a jinx that allows Suiren to use her curse power to control her spirit pressure in various ways. She isn't limited to just releasing pressure as an aura but can also do things like unleash all of it only from her fist instead of her entire body to greatly augment the power of her punches, control it so it is released from the bottom of her feet to launch her into the air, or use it to knock aside attacks. As a whole, Spirit Pressure Control functions in much the same ways as the Spirit Art Immovable though not quite on the same level and achieving its results in a different way. One interesting thing to note is that when she enters her demon form she loses access to this jinx and it is replaced by Immovable suggesting the only difference between Spirit Pressure Control is one uses spirit power and the other does not.
Death Cry: Death Cry is an offensive way of using Spirit Pressure. It allows her upon crying out manipulate her spirit pressure so as to launch the spirit pressure at the opponent from her mouth much in the same fashion as Sword Pressure. Instead of slicing through things the wave of spirit pressure it propels the opponent back with great force as it breaks their bones and damages internal organs.
Demonic Soul-Make:
Suiren using Demonic Soul-Make to grow phoenix wings
Demonic Soul-Make is a jinx that as the same suggests allows her to use death-force to mold her own soul. However instead of molding it into objects like Molding Magic she can reshape it into the soul of another creature to cause an effect similar in nature to Take Over. This jinx is inferior to Take Over because while the result allows her to modify or body to gain the physical traits of a creature she is unable to gain the magical abilities of the creature.
Soul Healing: Soul Healing is a jinx that allows Suiren to use astral energy to heal her own or someone else's soul. This can have a wide variety of effects including removing hexes, reversing corruption, or repairing a damaged soul. If a person's soul isn't damaged it can be used to strengthen the soul and use the excess power to heal the physical power until said excess power runs out.
Soul Cleansing: Soul Cleansing is a jinx derived from Soul Healing. It allows Suiren to use astral energy to lift burdens from from a person's soul. This can cause effects such as removing guilt or healing mental trauma to a degree.
Valkyrie Death Marking:
Valkyrie Strike: The Astral Curse doesn't have many common jinxes like creating barriers or ordinary offensive spells. Valkyrie Strike is the closest thing the Astral Curse has to an ordinary offensive spell and it is also her most used jinx. It is a jinx that that allows Suiren to incorporate astral energy into a palm strike. To perform, she cloaks her hand in astral energy and increases the concentration of astral energy as she simultaneously vibrates the astral energy at high frequencies. After doing so, she slams her palm against the opponent's body and releases the astral energy into the target's body to knock the opponent back at great speed and damage body and soul alike.
Bondsmith: Bondsmith is a jinx that allows Suiren to create blades made out of spiritual energy whose appearance makes it easy to confuse them for the blades seen in Maguilty Sense. Suiren is able to manifest a single weapon into her hand to use for close range combat, manifest them from a distance for a sudden and unexpected surprise attack, or unleash a barrage of them at her opponent for a long range attack. On the surface the blades appear to be useless. They can't do damage nor can they inflict pain. Instead, they establish a spiritual connection where there is none or strength pre-existing spiritual connections with whoever they harmlessly phase through. The opponent inches closer and closer to death every time a blade phases through them. The spiritual connection established or enhanced doesn't have to be used for Soul Harvest making this jinx deceptively versatile. The connection can for example be used to help Suiren perform a Unison Raid with someone where it would normally be impossible or to enhance a Unison Raid spell.
Death's Feast: Another of her few "ordinary" jinxes, Suiren snaps her fingers and a horde of ghosts made of astral energy bursts out of the ground beneath the opponent in a fashion akin to Dragon Spirit. The horde of ghosts bombard the opponent to deal a tremendous amount of blunt force damage. Enough to overwhelm Iron Dragon's Scales.
Soul Possession Cannon: Suiren forms the Kuji-kiri known as Zai with her hands while coating her hands in astral energy. Using the astral energy as a catalyst she is able to fire her soul at a target in order to possess it. While possessing it her body collapses to the ground and remains vulnerable until she returns to her body which she can do whenever she chooses. Despite what people think Suiren is able to possess more than just living things, but objects and elements as well. In a fight she mainly uses this jinx not to possess people, but to possess elements to temporarily gain control them and redirect the attack before returning back to her body before it can hit the floor.
Soul Possession Cannon: Omnipresence: Omnipresence is an advanced form of the Soul Possession Cannon. While the Soul Possession Cannon can only allow her to possess a single small target like a person or a single fireball this jinx allows her to possess an entire landscape. The entire landscape becomes her body allowing her to control everything it from plants to animals. When she possesses a landscape she knows every tiny thing that happens within it. The more curse power she uses the larger of an area she possess.
Demonic Spirit Channeling: Demonic Spirit Channeling is a jinx that imitates the effects of Enchantment. It allows her to place new properties into things she touches by using astral energy to channel a spirit that matches that property into her desired target. For example, she can give something elemental properties by channeling an elemental spirit into the target, grant weapons the ability to drain away life by channeling a wraith into a weapon, etc. In many ways Demonic Spirit Channeling is not as versatile as Enchantment because in order to give something a unique property there must be a spirit that represents that property. Suiren has learned how to overcome this limitation by using Living Magic to create new spirits that can grant the property she wants.
Astral Projection: Astral Projection is a jinx that allows her to use the Astral Curse to separate her soul from her body causing her body fall asleep and once outside of her body she can move her soul around as though it were her body. Her soul once projected is not limited by the physical plane like her body. It can freely move forward and back in time, ignore gravity to float where she wishes, and enter the dreams of others.
Astral Teleportation: Astral Teleportation is a method of teleportation using the Astral Projection. After using Astral Projection and having her soul move a distance away from her body she can use the immense strength of her soul to pull her body to the location of her soul thus causing her physical body to teleport.
Deal with the Devil: Deal with the Devil is a jinx that allows Suiren to corrupt the soul of a human with a combination of astral energy and death force to turn them into a Corrupt Human. By employing the same of corrupting a soul on a person's magic origin and body instead she is able to transform the person into a Devil Slayer and grant them access to Spirit Devil Slayer Magic, which is the Devil Slayer Magic variant of Spirit Dragon Slayer Magic as well the Devil Slayer Magic variant of Suiren's Astral Curse.
Deal with the Spirits: Deal with the Spirits is an alternative method of using Deal with the Devil's second effect. Instead of corrupting a person's magic origin and physiology she uses her astral energy to apply the same changes the spirit made on her demon factor, but on a human's magic origin and body instead. This allows her to transform a person into a Spirit Slayer and grant them Wraith Spirit Slayer Magic, which is a Spirit Slayer Magic equivalent of her curse and Spirit Dragon Slayer Magic.
Izanagi's Spirit Chains: Izanagi's Spirit Chains is a jinx that allows Suiren to coat the area in a thin mist of ectoplasm that reduces the power and effectiveness of Spirit Arts used within the area by slightly draining the spiria that makes up the spirit power used to perform Spirit Art spells. The absorbed spiria is transmitted to her after being absorbed and if enough Spirit Arts is used her body can use the absorbed spiria to create its own spirit power granting her access to her Ghostrick Spirit Art outside of her demon form. This rarely happens though because it takes several minutes of constant Spirit Art use to obtain enough spiria for that to happen and most opponents she has faced are smart enough to think of doing something about the mist rather than ignore it.
Kitsunebi: Kitsunebi is Suiren's trademark Astral Curse and it allows her to summon mysterious balls of light wherever she chooses. These balls of light look like blue ghostly balls of fire when in actuality they are a special type of ghost. Coming into contact with these ghosts causes an opponent's soul to be stripped away to slowly kill them as well as causing their body to slowly withered away all the while inflicting pain reminiscent of being burned from the inside out being rated as a four out of four on a pain scale as it is as painful as a bullet ant. This makes it feel as though their soul is being burned away. It takes about 10 or 12 solid hits with the spell to complete strip an opponent of their soul to kill them. People who have been killed by this jinx have been found as an emaciated corpse with their souls unable to pass on as it was consumed by the ghost. To add to how dangerous this jinx is, Suiren isn't limited to being summoned in her hand to throw at an opponent for she is able to summon them from a distance and is able to summon hundreds upon thousands of these balls to make it very hard to move around without bumping into one of them. When Suiren is in her demon form and can use her Spirit Art she can increase the power of these ghostly balls considerably by turning into a kitsune and infusing them with spirit power. In this state it takes only five solid hits to kill a person. When she is in her demon form or has access to spirit power some other way the ghostly balls gain the ability to absorb an enemy of their spirit power in addition to their soul.
Forbidden Back Door of the Celestial World: Forbidden Back Door of the Celestial World is a jinx that allows Suiren to use astral energy as a catalyst to summon Celestial Spirits. Suiren can use this spell to summon the Celestial Spirit King himself, but it requires her to use 98% of her maximum curse power meaning she can only really summon him at the beginning of a fight when she has yet to use much curse power.
Celestial Symbiotic Dress:
Mono no Aware: Mono no Aware (物の哀れ, 'the pathos of things') is an advanced jinx that Suiren mastered with help from her cousin Vincent Nakano from her original timeline. It allows her to use death force to summon a massive beam around the target or targets that reaches toward the sky composed of the same dark spirits that make up the infamous curse Memento Mori. Just like with the curse those killed by this jinx are simply erased, becoming nothing for eternity. The power of this beam is enough to easily over power Genesis Zero and comes a little short of reaching the power of the curse that inspired it. Mono no Aware has to major flaws. The first is that it requires a length incantation spoken in the language of the dead to perform, which requires Suiren to have backup to perform the jinx. The second is it requires her to use 40% of her curse power, which makes it pretty exhausting to use.
Soulcalibur:
Suiren's Soulcalibur
Soulcalibur is a jinx that allows Suiren to manifest a weapon that best represents her soul. This jinx is preformed by channeling astral energy around her soul and using it as a mold to modify it to become an extension or clone of her soul. Once finished she manifests the modified astral energy and allows it to take the shape and form of the weapon that best matches her soul, which in Suiren's case is a sword. This sword operates much in a similar way as the weapons seen deployed by users of Shinigami Auxiliary Magic. Injuries inflicted by this weapon are impossible to heal by normal means because any time the sword injures an opponent the opponent's soul in a similar fashion. In this way a person must heal their soul to heal their body. No physical healing spell of any level of power can heal an injury caused by this sword. In normal cases damaging the sword can damage Suiren's soul, but due to how strong Suiren's soul is it is impossible to damage the sword in any way, shape, or form. The blade can't even grow dull. This blade can physically cut inanimate objects, but it phases through living beings like a ghost. When it does it severs that part of the soul turning the part of the body it phased through black and useless and it will never be able to move again unless the soul is healed. When the sword phases through an enemy's heart, neck, or anything else that would be lethal to a normal human it utterly eradicates the soul causing their death. Unlike, shinigami weapons though it is unable to kill every species though it is able to harm every species. When killing someone the person's eyes will "burn" out as their soul is eviscerated.
Living Magic[]
Spectral Spies: Spectral Spies are creatures that can not be sensed by other people unless they can highly attuned to the astral plane and ghosts. They have no combat ability so they mainly used only for spying on people. They do have the ability to possess people, but unlike with Possession Magic they don't retain a person's memories or knowledge. When using this ability they tend to stalk a potential for several months to learn everything about them to make up for this.
Vengeful Ghost: Vengeful Ghost is a type of ghost capable of using curses mainly the Calamity Curse. Due to the fact Suiren used her mother's Calamity Curse as a blueprint for the Calamity Curse of Vengeful Ghosts they can use all the same jinxes she can albeit not at the same level. These creatures can phase through most physical attacks and can only be hit and killed by spirit-based magics. They are extremely vulnerable to Spirit Slayer Magic. A glancing blow from an average Spirit Slayer Magic spell is enough to kill them.
Nature Spirits:
Enchantment Spirits: Enchantment Spirits are the name of the spirits Suiren uses to broaden what she can do with Demonic Spirit Channeling. They take the form of normal ghosts with not much definition to them. They have next to no abilities beyond intangibility and when created they are connected to a certain trait so that Suiren can pass on that property to the target when she channels the spirit into her desired target. They are incredibly easy to make allowing Suiren to effortless create them in the midst of battle.
Charm Magic[]
Charm Magic is a Caster Magic and Holder Magic that revolves around hypnotizing victims. Suiren's catalyst is the moment the victim responds to the phrase, "Want to get a bite to eat with me?" Any response is adequate including a denial and once trapped in its effects the magic is very hard to break. In most cases the signature charm of Charm Magic is an overwhelming physical attraction to incapacitate targets, but Suiren almost never does this. Instead, she instills in them an overwhelming desire to want to befriend her in order to more easily reach the desired level of friendship to take their soul. Suiren has displayed much more restraint with this magic's use than most mages. She only uses it on people she intends to kill and not those she genuinely wants to befriend. This might be why her friend's in her original timeline trusted her enough to befriend her despite the fact that doing so might mean death. They know if killing them was her aim Suiren would have attempted using Charm Magic at some point. This of course can just be a means of comforting themselves because said friends also know if she wanted Suiren can be so subtle with the magic that a person will never notice.
Ice Devil Slayer Magic[]
Ice Devil Slayer Magic is a Caster Magic, Lost Magic, Slayer Magic, and Devil Slayer Magic that Suiren obtained after she ate her father's soul when he died. Suiren has commented it was the worst thing she ever done and only did it at his father's prompting. It appears that the act traumatized her quite bit because since arriving in this timeline she has refused to eat the soul of anyone who uses any power related to the cold. When she ate his soul she was able obtain this magic after she drew out his Devil Slayer Magic from his soul. This magic revolves around the use "unholy ice" from the coldest regions of the nether world in its various forms. This magic is currently in a very incomplete state and as a result the only ability the magic granted her is complete immunity to cold and its elements as well as the ability to consume ice in its various forms, and of course the ability to create and manipulate ice. She doesn't have her father's devil slayer markings, can't use Frostbite Decree, enter of the magic's forms, etc. However, should she ever read her father's grimiore she will gain full access to her father's magic and turn her into the next Apex Cryomancer. With the exception of Instantaneous Freeze, Suiren does not rely on this magic like her father did, but rather saves it for when she needs to fight demons.
Instantaneous Freeze: Instantaneous Freeze is by far the more useful of the three Ice Devil Slayer Magic spells she can currently use. She can completely freeze everything within a large radius just by a flick of the wrist. Freezing individuals, groups, and landscapes to turn the area around her into an arctic wasteland. Her freezing powers are on par with her father's allowing her to allow her to kill humans and lesser demons instantly by flash freezing them to a point where they become brittle and easily able to shatter. Unlike her father, this isn't the end. Using her Astral Curse she can draw in the souls of those killed before they go to the afterlife, plants included, to regain her reserves of curse power and empower herself. In her demon form Instantaneous Freeze obtains all the properties of all normal Spirits Arts specifically Freezing due to the ability to use this spell with spirit power.
Ice Devil's Rage:
Suiren using Ice Devil's Rage
Ice Devil's Rage is a spell that allows to inhale the unleash a large blizzard of of cold air, ice and snow from her mouth at the target of her choice. The blizzard inflicts great damage upon those it contacts, causing those who were hit to be sent flying away with immense force, as well as leaving behind a trail of destruction in its wake, heavily damaging the area it passes through. She is able to infuse astral energy into the blizzard granting it the ability to freeze an opponent's very mind and soul as well as body. This prevents those frozen by this incapable of thought due to the frozen state of their mind and makes their soul incapable of leaving he body with stuff like Astral Projection or Possession Magic because of the frozen state of the soul. Furthermore, when infused with astral realm the blizzard gains the ability to phase through anything that gets in between itself and Suiren's target much like a ghost making it impossible to defend against it. In a similar vain, with astral energy infused in it the blizzard can counter or interact with Spirit Arts. Suiren can also use this spell with cryogenic energy instead of releasing a blizzard.
Ice Devil's Winter Shotgun: Ice Devil's Winter Shotgun is Suiren's third and final Ice Devil Slayer Magic spell. It allows her to unleash a mass less burst of supercooled air and cryogenic energy from her fist and hand. This spread-type blast is released in a violent explosive concussive force to deliver a nasty frostbite. The force of the blast and punch is enough to run opponent's straight through with the intended force of a shotgun to the gut. Among it's freezing capabilities is stings the opponent greatly causing the opponent to go through varying degrees of frostbite, intense cold and some numbing. If Suiren is able to charge the spell she is able to greatly augment the power of the spell. The charged version of this spell is usually called Ice False Devil Tyrant's Vehement Shotgun because it falls just short of being a Tyrant class spell. Suiren typically saves this variant as a last resort because it saps her of all of her strength.
Death Bringer Fist[]
Death Bringer Fist is Suiren's main fighting style, which she learned from her mentor Izanagi. This fighting style has its roots in Jeet Kune Do and much like it the fighting style teaches the best defense is an overwhelming offense which gives rise to its core principle of intercepting attacks. Many of the attacks of Death Bringer Fist serve as both a way to apply pressure and parry away attacks at the same time so as to merge offense and defense into one. It relies on punching, kicking, trapping, and grappling woven together with flexible water-like movements to achieve this union. What makes this fighting style dangerous though is how incorporates her Astral Curse. Suiren is able to many of the same feats Izanagi can with his Shinigami Auxiliary Magic allowing her to flow astral energy to parts of her body to destroy and mutilate the soul with every strike. "If it has a soul it can die," so says the core tenet of the fighting style. It truly lives up to this idea by bypassing any physical boon an opponent has to kill them by destroying their soul instead of destroying their body. When Suiren is done with an opponent their soul is mutilated to the point that nothing can bring them back by making it unusable through stuff like Historia of the Dead, Necromancer, and Seith Magic. Demons, dragons, and gods alike have fallen by Suiren's hands thanks to this fighting style. When it isn't mutilating an opponent's soul, Suiren is cloaking her fists or feet in death-force to cause any body part she hits to stiffen as though undergoing rigor mortis to render that body part immobile. If the opponent is not careful, she can stiffen vital organs, causing potentially lethal effects.
Reduced Earth: Reduced Earth is a technique that serves as the bread and butter for close range combatants. It allows her to move to another location in the blink of an eye by slamming her foot against the ground ten times. Her mastery of this basic technique allows her to effortless surpass mages of High Speed and Slowing Magic all without the use of magic power. The sheer power and speed afforded to her by this technique can overwhelm archdemons and even Devil Kings if they weren't expecting her to be this fast. While it may seem like she is teleporting to a solid 70% of foes she faces it is not. This makes it easier to predict her movements. In addition, unlike teleportation she can't simply ignore obstacles and must run around it allowing foes to interrupt her movements by placing something in her path provided that object is strong enough to endure the collision. Suiren's superhuman senses make up for this flaw to some extent because it allows her to react to things at the last second while moving at these ridiculous speeds. This can be seen in how Suiren often uses this technique to move across vast distances in the blink of an eye by weaving around trees, buildings, and other obstacles on her way to her destination.

Water Walk Reduced Earth:
Afterimage Reduced Earth:
Wavejet Step:
Touch of Death: Touch of Death is one of the simplest offensive Death Bringer Fist technique that expands on the rigor mortis touch. It allows Suiren to cloak a body part in death force and use it to induce any any of the other stages of death once she has made physical contact. She can induce algor mortis to reduce the body temperature of the part of the body she touched to cause frostbites or flash freeze the limb, livor mortis to temporarily draw blood away from the upper body so long as physical contact is maintained, putrefaction to cause the skin and flesh that she touched to break down, etc.
Demon-blooded Physiology[]
Demonic Physical Capabilities: While Suiren's astral training was overseen by Izanagi her physical training was overseen by TheThreeNoble Children. During her training when she wasn't training with Izanagi she was being pushed by deities who had godly expectations for her. The only reason she is still alive is thanks to the regeneration granted to her by her contract with Izanagi for if not for that they would have worked her to death on day one. The training paid off and Suiren has impressive physical abilities as a result even if they are still laughable when compared to her trainers. She is able to easily outrun users of High Speed or seemingly ignore the effects of Slow Magic for the most part with her speed and reflexes. According to those three her physical prowess is equivalent to an archdemon and far superior to her siblings. She often uses her speed to confuse her foes by moving faster than the eye can track or weaponizing her speed by breaking the sound barrier. Her durability and endurance is made great use of by Death Bringer Fist by allowing her shrug off a lot of attacks and ignore pain to keep on the offensive. She isn't invulnerable outside of her weaknesses and it is possible to inflict enough pain to bypass her endurance, but having enough power to inflict serious damage or submit to pain is not easy to do by any means. If one does manage to harm her, Suiren's regeneration will allow her to heal the injury and off the chance a person does kill Suiren with one of her weaknesses she is able to come back from the dead twice a dead to make her more stubborn than a zombie to put and keep down. These things make her an incredibly resilient person and it is little wonder why she can ignore most attacks. Suiren's strength is great enough to match blow for blow with powerful creatures like dragons, lesser deities, and archdemons. Once in her original timeline when trying to assassinate a Dragon Slayer she was able to overpower a Dragon Slayer using Dragon Force in a contest of strength. Suiren usually uses her strength to maintain her distance by striking the air with enough to generate a wave of pressure to help keep her distance or to attack enemies trying to run away. The rest of Suiren's physical abilities are on the level of her speed, strength, durability, and endurance making her a threat in close quarters combat and broadening her options when fighting.
Enhanced Senses Suiren possesses superhuman sight, touch, smell, hearing and taste. She can pick up from miles away and recognize who it belongs to if she has smelled it before, notice very small details from several meters away with her sight, detect very quite footsteps with her hearing, feel tiny disturbances in the air around her, and detect subtle poisons with her taste.
Immortality: Suiren is unable to die by natural or normal means. She doesn't have a lifespan, unable to succumb to any disease, and can live without vital organs provided it wasn't removed by one of her weaknesses. One can think of her as being immune to death and the only way to stop that is with her weaknesses. It wouldn't be a lie to say death favors her and ignores her for both death the person and death the concept do.
Weakness: Only two things can kill her: Devil Slayer Magic and Spirit Slayer Magic. These two forms of magic are the only things capable of bypassing her immortality and negating her regeneration. It takes a high caliber Spirit Slayer Magic to kill her while most forms of Devil Slayer Magic can kill her.
Enhanced Combat: As one of Izanagi's elite valkyries, Suiren has become a monster on the battlefield. Her valkyrie training has led her to have complete mastery in all forms of combat including martial arts, weaponry, and long range in particular. With her combat ability alone Suiren has been able to change the result of wars.
Contractee Powers: Suiren is Izanagi's second most powerful contractee surpassing the likes of the Three Noble Children. When she formed a contract with him Izanagi flooded her body, mind, and soul with astral energy to permanently modify them. It made her mind highly attuned to the astral plane and Astral Realm giving her an encyclopedic-level of knowledge about it and what it resides there. It also granted her the ability to resist the temptation of the corrupting force of her curse and reverse the little corruption that had happened.`The modification of her mind also improved her astrakinesis by a very large degree.
Regeneration:
Spirit Arts Resistance:
Dimensional Travel: Granted to her by the contract, Suiren has the ability to travel between dimension like The Void, Astral Realm, and the dreams of others and she can do it so easily that it is as natural to her as walking.
Demon Form:
Suiren's demon form
Suiren's demon form has been called terrifying by those who have seen it. She retains a human shape, but grows glowing red horns with her eyes turning into pits of red luminescence and her teeth growing into fangs emitting the same ominous red glow as her eyes and her mouth stuck in a wide blood chilling smile. Izanagi claims this can be called her true appearance with her human form being something like a disguise. When she enters this form she gains full access to her abilities allowing Suiren to gain various enhancements and new abilities. Most notable of these abilities is the ability to use the full extent of her Astral Curse outside of the Astral Realm once demonstrated when she established a spiritual connection and extracted the souls of hundreds of lesser demons with a swipe of her hand arm. This form is harder for her to get into than it is for other demons to adopt their demon form. Suiren seems to need to consume 12 powerful souls within a minute to access her true form, which is where her Soul Lacrima comes into play. One other dangerous aspect to demon form is her resiliency. In her human form the modification to her demon factor has made her vulnerable to two forms of Slayer Magic. Her demon form helps somewhat by making her resilient to all but the highest caliber Devil or Spirit Slayer Magic. If an insufficient Devil Slayer Magic or something holy hurts her then her demon factor will generate spiritual energies to heal her and if the opponent uses an insufficient spirit killing magic or item her curse power will heal her.
Increased Curse Power Reserves: Suiren has access to more curse power than she does in her human form. In her demon form, Suiren's has enough curse power to exceed the magic power of any Wizard Saint though not by much.
Spirit Art Immunity: In Suiren's demon form the Spirit Art Resistance granted to her by her contract with Izanagi is enhanced to an absolute immunity to Spirit Arts. She is invulnerable to all forms of Spirit Arts allowing her to not be harmed by Spirit Arts in any way, shape, or form. The largest Spirit Art spell is unable to even make her budge.
Spirit Art Manipulation: Spirit Arts become completely ineffective against Suiren in her demon form. In part because of her immunity, but also because she gains the ability to take control over Spirit Arts used by anyone. She is able to negate Spirit Arts with a flick of her wrist, augment its power, transform a Spirit Art spell into another spell, or telekinetically control Spirit Arts for instance she can control fire from a fire Spirit Art. With this she can turn any Spirit Art an opponent uses against them.
Ghostrick: In Suiren's demon form her demon factor is able to generate more spiritual energy than normal which allows her to convert it into spirit power that she can use for the Ghostrick Spirit Art. This Spirit Art allows her to summon ghost-like, paranormal entities from Spiria.
Ghost Mode: Ghost Mode is an ability granted to her by her demon form. It allows to infuse her body with spiritual energy to become incorporeal like a ghost making her invulnerable to physical attacks while in this state. The drawback of doing so is that it makes her far more vulnerable to Spirit Slayer Magic. So long as she stays in Ghost Mode any Spirit Slayer Magic can hurt her instead of only the highest caliber variants.
Curse Power[]
Suiren has an impressive amount of curse power allowing her to throw around high caliber Astral Curse jinxes with very little signs of exhaustion. She has much more curse power than most guild master's have magic power. She can possibly outlast a wizard saint's magic power reserves. When she releases an aura of curse power many opponent's report beginning to feel uneasy with the feeling that tons of eyes on them, but with none in sight when they turn around. Some have said it is more like a feeling of being in the spookiest haunted house, but multiplied by a thousand.
Suiren's curse power is not like other demons due to what the spirit did to her. Instead it acts like spirit and curse power merged together. Just like with curse power it can grow stronger in the presence of negative emotions, but at the same time it has been shown that magic is unable to affect any of Suiren's jinxes making Spirit Arts and Curses the only options for dispelling or absorbing Suiren's jinxes and for the same reasons Suiren's jinxes and curse power can interact with Spirit Arts.
Zero Aura: Zero Aura is a jinx that allows her to lower the temperature of her aura of curse power after it has been released allowing her to imitate her father's below zero magic power thus adding the same effects of his magical pressure to her curse pressure in addition to the ones already present. However, do to how she has curse power instead of magic power the effects are far more intense. She can turn a hot day into one with below zero degree temperatures after only a few seconds of exerting her curse pressure. She usually lowers the temperature to negative 55 degrees, but can lower it further by increasing how much curse pressure she is using. The exertion also begins to fill the air with Magical Barrier Particles to poison those who are not immune.
Quotes[]
"Cherish your family while you can. You never know when you might never be able to see them again." - Suiren after overhearing a kid complain about his parents.
Trivia[]
Suiren's appearance was taken from Ning er from the Tales of Demons and Gods.
Suiren's newest alias of Cocytus was chosen in part because it means lamentation, referencing her current mental state. It is also the name of a river in Greek mythology that surrounds the world of the dead in reference to her curse. In the Divine Comedy it is a frozen lake in hell in obvious reference to her Ice Devil Slayer Magic.
The abilities of Soulcalibur were inspired by Shardblades from the Stormlight Archive.
