Anna Sprengel

is a magician of the Rosicrucian Order, the master of its No. 1 temple in Germany, who was said to have played a role in the foundation of the Golden Dawn and supposedly acted as a point of contact for the Secret Chiefs, though her existence has been considered a dubious one. Epilogue Between the Lines 1 Chapter 2 Part 12 Epilogue Prologue
==Appearance==
Anna Sprengel has the physical appearance of a ten-year old girl, about 30-40% shorter than Madame Horos when she was possessing Anna's body and with a flat chest. Prologue She has purple eyes and long reddish-blonde hair which reaches her ankles, ContentsRainbow Spectrum rolled into large ringlet curls and squished flat at the ends into several fried shrimp shapes, with rose decorations throughout. Anna is also capable of assuming an adult form like the one that Madame Horos had used, which she refers to as her "proper form".
After being restored to her body, Anna wore the gaudy red dress which Madame Horos had been wearing while using her body (the fabric and design of which Anna did not like), which was now too big for her and had to be held to avoid it falling off. Between the Lines 2 She was also barefooted, having discarded the shoes as they were now the wrong size for her, though she would later wear the shoes and leggings again on assuming her adult form.
==Personality==
Anna is a cruel, proud and self-centered individual, who looks down on most other people and things in the world, and is focused on pursuing her own goals and interests, with no regard for whoever or whatever is harmed in the process.
Given her immense power and her ability to predict outcomes with near certainty, Anna is often bored and finds enjoyment in things which defy her predictions. While various things can catch her interest, they usually don't hold it for very long and when she loses interest, she moves on. If something actually disappoints her, she is likely to destroy it before moving on.
She is a callous and toxic manipulator who has no compunction about manipulating and harming others for the sake of her own goals, often setting things up so that her pawns end up destroying themselves. Between the Lines 1 Chapter 2 Part 1 Chapter 2 Part 8
From past experiences, with cabals and magicians not truly understanding the meaning of her words and distorting them to suit themselves, Anna believes that no one could understand her and is angered at people thinking that they can. Chapter 4 She also believes that exchanges of words only distort the truth and spread corrupted information. Chapter 3 She hates being interrupted in the middle of an explanation, in at least one case going on a rant and taking out her anger on a nearby object. Epilogue
Anna has been described as clinging to success and victory more than anyone, regardless of what she says, to the point that she cannot maintain herself without them.
==Background==
Anna Sprengel is a legendary figure who supposedly helped in the foundation of the Golden Dawn. However, to most of the world it wasn't certain whether she actually existed or whether her existence was fabricated.
According to her legend, Anna Sprengel was a member of the Rosicrucian Order, master of its No.1 temple (also known as Lichte, Liebe, Leben) in Germany, and a priestess who could call on the power of the Secret Chiefs. She was said to have functioned as a point of contact for the Secret Chiefs, much like Aleister Crowley would act as a point of contact for Aiwass, described by him as one of the theories concerning the Secret Chief. Anna Sprengel was supposedly the one who authorized the founders of the Golden Dawn to create their cabal, with William Wynn Westcott finding her name and address in a , and communicating with her in an exchange known as the . Chapter 1 Part 11 Allowing for her name to be used in the formation of the Golden Dawn would have been breaking one of the rules of the Rosicrucian Order in the process. Between the Lines 2
However, it was later determined that the letter which Westcott supposedly received from her was actually forged by him in order to give prestige to the cabal he helped found. Chapter 3 Part 9 Chapter 3 Part 13 Wanting to claim that the cabal was the continuation of an ancient Rosicrucian line, he apparently faked a letter sent to the German cabal (whom he claimed to have two temples) as well as a response from Anna Sprengel authorizing the creation of a British branch (hence the Isis-Urania Temple being called #3). Anna Sprengel was rumored to have been based on the founders' teacher, Anna Kingsford, who died around the time of the cabal's founding. While he faked the letters, Westcott also ended up acting as a cloud concealing another truth. Between the Lines 1
In truth, while "Miss Sprengel" was a fiction, there was indeed an Anna who was a member of the Rosicrucian Order. As deduced by Mina Mathers, this Anna was not well known and as such, while she had proper Rosicrucian knowledge, her students would disregard her, refusing to study and learn things in the proper order, taking shortcuts and doing things their own way in their haste, which would inevitably lead to tragedy, which she would usually be blamed for. Despairing at both the ignorant and foolish who refused to learn in the proper way, and herself for the lack of trust from her own unimportance and lack of fame that kept them from listening and prevented her from guiding them properly, Anna thought that she might be able to be listened to and correctly guide those in search of wisdom if she were someone important.
This occured at the same time as Westcott was beginning his faked exchange of letters to help create the fictional persona of Miss Sprengel, and learning of this, Anna decided to assume this identity to have a name with some weight behind it. She replied to a letter had sent Westcott to an arbitrary address as Anna Sprengel, likely to his shock and embarrassment. As part of the ruse, Anna would travel to and create fake ruins that one might associate with the First Temple. However, Anna Sprengel's hopes would ultimately be dashed with the downfall of the Golden Dawn.
At one time, Anna tried out the in but was disappointed. Another time, she consumed a sample of that time's St. Germain, which apparently left a bit more of a tingle on the tongue than the present-day one. Another time, she saw the actions of an individual entity she would later describe as a machine that went around saving people, a performance that was around 2000 years prior to the present day. Chapter 3 Part 7
As a priestess who could call on the power of the Secret Chiefs, Anna had made contact with Aiwass prior to Aleister Crowley's 1904 contact and had a part in the latter, having Aiwass plant a new seed by giving Aleister the knowledge that would become the Book of the Law, influenced by disgust at the Golden Dawn's rapid decline after the Battle of Blythe Road. She also anticipated what would happen with Lilith Crowley, though the final part of her prediction would ultimately be defied.
At some point in the late 19th century, Anna Sprengel's body was stolen by the fraud Madame Horos under unknown circumstances. Having been summoned by Anna, Aiwass was to hunt down the fraud and return Anna to her body. While the Golden Dawn was still active, Madame Horos approached Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers posing as Anna Sprengel and made off with crucial cabal documents after deceiving him, bringing a disaster to the cabal and earning Mathers' hatred.

Epilogue
===Souyaku Toaru Majutsu no Index===
====Christmas Eve Arc====
At some point before Christmas Eve, Anna started overseeing the development of R&C Occultics, Between the Lines X Epilogue an IT company specializing in magic and distributing magical knowledge over the internet, Chapter 4 Part 1 Epilogue growing in-between the Magic and Science Sides, with the two not able to properly respond to the new development.
Shortly after midnight on the morning of December 24th, Anna had infiltrated Academy City, though she had not addressed her clothing situation. Filming a group of delinquents attempting to rob an ATM, she was spotted by Kamijou Touma as he was visiting the convenience store and then by the delinquents, leading to Touma carrying her while fleeing from the group. The pursuit was eventually ended by Misaka Mikoto who had escaped from Tokiwadai's strict Christmas oversight and spotted the two. As Touma was having to explain himself, Anna deliberately aggravated the situation with a grin on her face. Prologue
In the evening, after Touma's battle with Neoka Norito, who had used magic acquired from R&C Occultics, Anna approached Touma after he returned to the street, alarming Othinus who recognized who she was. After updating the R&C Occultics site, Anna placed a black pill in her mouth and assumed an adult form before moving in towards Touma. Wishing her amnesiac enemy Merry Christmas in a declaration of war, she kissed him and exposed him to the contents of the black pill in her mouth.
====Christmas Day Arc====
====Operation Handcuffs Arc====
Anna spent the events of Operation Handcuffs discussing the operation's disastrous turn with the new Board Chairman and taunting him about how much he knew about what he had inherited. Between the Lines 1 Between the Lines 2 She was present for his conversation with Valart Signal about the impacts the destruction caused by the operation could have on the city's future, as well as "Vanish". Between the Lines 3
As Operation Handcuffs concluded, Anna continued to taunt Accelerator, remarking on the peaceful intent he had for the operation and for the members of the Dark Side of Academy City, as well as revealing to him that the Coins of Nicholas randomly distributed by R&C Occultics caused the operation to collapse. She came to the conclusion that though the division between Magic and Science is constructed, the freedom of the latter disrupts the order of the former, though she was noticeably intrigued that Hamazura Shiage gave up his coin in the end. Qliphah Puzzle 545 angrily attacked her for this, irritating Anna due to her being interrupted by the artificial demon, and prompting a counterattack from Aiwass. Having concluded her plans in Academy City, she let herself out from the cell and set off towards her next objective. Between the Lines 4
====Los Angeles Arc====
Anna was absent from the events in Los Angeles on December 26th, surrounding the joint operation by the Anglican Church and Academy City to destroy R&C Occultics HQ and the disappearance of the city's population caused by Citrinitas in response. However, Melzabeth Grocery had caught her interest with her failed secret rebellion and following Anna's intentions, Citrinitas (whose rank and title she had granted, but unknown to him did not expect much of, using him as a pawn and bait to obtain someone greater) used Melzabeth's image in an attempt to frame her for their crimes in order to break her back into their service and leave her with no place to go besides R&C Occultics.
In the aftermath of these events and the destruction of R&C Occultics (with Aleister gruesomely killing the executives at the HQ ahead of the joint force to send a message to her), Anna was at an unknown location with Aradia. During their conversation, they discussed the sacrificial pawn that the company had been, their acquaintance Alice, and the coming new age, with Aradia remarking on Anna's capriciousness and Anna anticipating crazed masses and poisoned justice after the incident, while also thinking that it was a pity to lose Melzabeth. Epilogue
====Post-Handcuffs Arc====
On December 29th, Anna was guided around the Bridge Builders Cabal's base by Aradia, meeting a couple of the group's members while on her way to be introduced to Alice, who Aradia warned her not to anger and whom she also suggested should be a higher priority for Anna to introduce herself to than H. T. Trismegistus. However, they both found Alice was missing, much to Aradia's dismay. Between the Lines 1
Unbeknownst to Aradia and the rest of the Bridge Builders Cabal, Anna had informed Alice about Touma before being invited into the group, leading Alice to head to Academy City to go on an adventure with Touma, getting involved in the events surrounding the Overhunting and Vanishing Tunnel (the results of the aftermath of Operation Handcuffs). After the incident was resolved, Anna came to Academy City to bring Alice back to the group's base, earning Touma's anger. Upon their return, the group learned that Alice's interest in Touma had swayed her from using her magic to help in their plans, as well as learning of Anna telling Alice about Touma, which had thrown a wrench in their plans. Epilogue
====New Year's Eve Arc====
As the Bridge Builders Cabal was split between the Killers and the Rescuers, Chapter 2 Part 1 Anna Sprengel did not take a side and merely watched on. Epilogue Despite her actions, she was still recognized as a Transcendent of the cabal.
After the last battle between Kamijou Touma and Aradia on December 31st, she was pondering killing Aradia to provoke a change in the boy, when she was confronted by Anna Kingsford, whose preserved body had been retrieved and reanimated by Aleister Crowley. Stricken with terror, her arrogance and abilities crushed, and unable to overcome the disadvantageous connection they had, Anna Sprengel was easily defeated by Anna Kingsford and sealed away into parchment charms in a film can. She was subsequently interrogated by Aleister about Alice Anotherbible and the Bridge Builders Cabal.
====New Year's Arc====
Between January 1st and the morning of January 3rd, the sealed Anna Sprengel was interrogated by Aleister's group about Alice Anotherbible and the Bridge Builders Cabal, at one point being used to magically locate the latter. Chapter 1 Part 6 Chapter 1 Part 8 Chapter 2 Part 5 Chapter 2 Part 7 Epilogue Around the same time, the Transcendents were planning to execute Anna for her actions, with a fight arising from Touma's objection to the unilateral execution. After escaping from the cabal's consulate on the morning of January 3rd, Touma encountered Aleister with the sealed Anna and freed her with Imagine Breaker, fleeing with her and Aradia.
The group spent most of January 3rd and 4th in a hijacked Predator Octopus, stealthly heading for a back-up of R&C Occultics hidden in School District 15 that held information that could be used as leverage against the Transcendents, in the middle of martial law in Academy City and trying to avoid detection and attacks from Aleister's group and the cabal's executioner Mut Thebes. Prologue Chapter 1 Part 2 Chapter 1 Part 3 Chapter 1 Part 5 Chapter 1 Part 7 Chapter 2 Part 1 Chapter 2 Part 2 Chapter 2 Part 4 Chapter 2 Part 6 Chapter 2 Part 8 Chapter 3 Part 1 Chapter 3 Part 2 While they managed to reach their destination, Mut Thebes ultimately hit Anna with the Shrink Drink, putting her life in jeopardy. Chapter 3 Part 4 Chapter 3 Part 6 Between the Lines 4 Chapter 4 Part 1 Chapter 4 Part 5 Chapter 4 Part 6 Epilogue After Mut Thebes was defeated, Touma and Aradia heading to find Alice in hopes of getting her to cancel the Shrink Drink's effects, only to find her dead at the hands of "CRC", whose resurrection Anna had sought to stop.
Anna spent most of January 5th on the brink of death in the ICU of Heaven Canceller's Hospital, kept barely alive as Heaven Canceller struggled to find a way to save her, while elsewhere "CRC" made his way towards the hospital to take her life. Prologue Chapter 1 Part 1 Chapter 2 Part 5 Heaven Canceller eventually managed to save her by temporarily changing her blood type through dialysis, causing the Shrink Drink's continual attack to lose its target and cease. Chapter 3 Part 12 Chapter 4 Part 6 Anna awoke around the same time as Touma and Aleister managed to defeat "CRC". Chapter 4 Part 7 Chapter 4 Part 8 She would subsequently provide blood to Touma to make up for the blood lost when he fought "CRC" with his hand severed and using the power behind Imagine Breaker. Epilogue
==Abilities==
A magical expert of the Rosicrucian Order and master of its No. 1 temple in Germany, Anna Sprengel is an immensely powerful and knowledgeable magician. While not being a Secret Chief herself, Anna is a priestess who can freely contact and draw on the power of these transcendent beings, including Aiwass. As a Transcendent of the Bridge Builders Cabal, Anna is said to be powerful enough to rival the regular magic side on her own. Chapter 2 Part 1
According to Aleister Crowley when he confronted Fiamma at the end of World War III, as a point of contact for the Secret Chiefs (much like Aleister would act as a point of contact for Aiwass), Anna was said to have been the same kind of higher existence that he had become at that point (described as existing in a different dimension, beyond just being expressible as 0 or 1, and being able to exist in multiple locations at the same time). Aiwass has referred to Anna as a genius who can rearrange atoms in front of her like it was normal and someone who can see an end result from the beginning like it was normal. After actually encountering her, Aleister referred to her in a message to Tsuchimikado Motoharu as someone who had crossed the Ungrund (or the Abyss).
At her full strength, Anna is apparently powerful enough to destroy Aiwass in his non-incarnated state in a single blow. After being weakened due to Madame Horos squandering much of that power, an arm stab to the gut from her was only able to bring Aiwass to his knees. She can jump on a spiked chair or into an iron maiden without scratching her skin and with only a mild feeling, and consume a sample of the potent St. Germain virus without any ill effects. A drop of her blood can apparently produce unknown miracles. Her full power is manifested in her adult form, but she cannot maintain that form for long in her weakened state, expending power in doing so.
In addition to her wealth of knowledge, Anna also has a high degree of foresight, having known the situation which would befall Lilith many years in advance, and while her predictions are not absolute, the end results of events don't often betray her expectations. She is also highly proficient in psychological manipulation, both at an individual and collective level. Although she has a powerful intellect and immense knowledge, she does not possess a perfect memory.
Due to the connection formed between herself and Anna Kingsford, as well as the latter's superior skill, Anna Sprengel cannot defeat her. She believed the use of Aiwass could change this, though subsequent events convinced her otherwise. As with the other Transcendents, individuals who like her took on roles to perform, she is vulnerable to the Shrink Drinks and the power of Alice Anotherbible that they utilize.
===Rosicrucian Magic and Techniques===
As per the rules of the Rosicrucian Order, Anna is skilled at blending in with her surroundings, able to slip into the damaged Tower of London unnoticed by the many people viewing the damaged exterior through digital devices and the Anglican jailers careful to set up various measures to conceal the interior. Together with Aiwass, Anna has also made use of an invisibility spell based on the symbol of the black egg.
While in the Tower of London, she used a technique derived from the legend of the miniature garden which Christian Rosencreutz supposedly used to view the world, in order to view the current scene inside Windsor Castle. She made use of a jump rope, with silver paper and plastic film from chocolate boxes attached at set intervals and blue lighting provided by Aiwass. While she was swinging and jumping over the rope, the light was reflected off the pieces attached to it, forming an egg-shaped display area around her. A bluish-white image of Windsor Castle was visible from inside this area (but not from the outside), with people being shown in yellow. She also has knowledge of methods connected to Rosencreutz's seven-walled tomb and considered using them to restore her lost power.
Anna is capable of creating magical landmines through distortions in the ley lines. Utilizing the Sephiroth's correspondence to the human body, she can focus on the channels between the spheres to make her physical blows obstruct the unseen circulation and flow of power through an opponent's body.
Against a reanimated Anna Kingsford, Anna Sprengel's thwarted attempt to kill her involved a spell contained in a glass anti-personnel mine with a glass vial of chemicals in place of a regular fuse. When stepped on or hitting the floor, the vial breaking would cause the chemicals to mix and detonate. For Anna's spell, in the mine, controlling its own microcosm, the aspect of 'summer growth' would be extracted from the four-step cycle and used to stop up the regular cycle of (the boundary of which her target had crossed) to create an environment of endless growth, which would then by linked to the eighth operation, separation. The intended result was a deadly, expanding space which would separate every joint and organ from the victim's body. However, Anna Kingsford suspended the explosive in mid-air and never let it hit the floor.
Aside from the Pneuma-less Shell and the glass vial, another item which Anna used was a rosy thorn crown, slipped onto Touma's head to paralyze him. She was also able to concoct an acute version of the St. Germain virus, delivered in pill form.
====Pneuma-less Shell====
The is a spiritual item, described as a base metal still made by intentionally distorting the , which Anna uses to add some randomness to her battles, as well as disturbing her own rhythm and reducing her status, in order to mitigate the risk of careless mistakes that come from eliminating death and forgetting the fear of it.
It is a two-meter tall metallic sphere, hovering in the air and emitting a dull silver light. There is a wheel at its center and when it is spun, the orb makes a grinding noise similar to gears before opening up in a complex manner to dispense an item. At a snap of her fingers, it can compress itself into the form of a small round flask, no larger than an eyedrop container, with multiple necks like a bagpipe and lined with thin lead foil.
The sphere manifests with the command , causing a shockwave which knocks down objects and individuals in its vicinity. When initially using it, Anna spoke its name, invoking the Philosopher's Egg, , and a spell which never strays far, even found hidden in music and paintings. Declaring that she did not seek the red stone, she had it show her a distorted result to entertain her with the unforeseen.
Anna is capable of extracting the 'essence' of the produced items, associated with their history and traditions (in explaining this, she gave examples of firsts; e.g. the first projectiles being stones, the first smokescreens being dried grass, the first biological weapons being corpses, and the first blades likely being stone or bone), and applying them to produce potent effects:
 	Essence 	Effects
Tree branch 	"The world's oldest whip" 	By extracting and applying the branch's essence, Anna was able to blow away the nearby snow and tear off the right half of the Anti-Art Attachment's wings, rupturing its twin rocket engines in the process, with a casual swing of the branch.
Rope 	"The world's oldest form of bondage" 	Drawing out the essence of the old worn rope, Anna was able to apply tremendous pressure and break away a pillar with a light tug after throwing the rope, missing her target and wrapping it around the pillar. It has been said that she could bind a falling asteroid and hold it in place in mid-air.
 	"The world's oldest orbital launch" 	Using the satellite's essence in an attack, Anna raises her hand, causing loose objects in the target area to rise up before tearing the target from the ground and launching it into the sky. Anna attempted to use this against Shokuhou Misaki, but her target unexpectedly falling while attempting to run led to a nearby bus stop sign being launched instead.
Charcoal 	"The world's oldest writing tool" 	
Charcoal was used before papyrus and parchment, being mixed with blood and used to write on cave walls. As the oldest writing tool, it is also where grimoires start from.
Anna can make use of this to turn objects into original grimoires by writing text on them. Animated for autonomous defence by drawing power from the ley lines, they follow her commands. Although impromptu ones, they are still true grimoires and reading their text with have the same harmful effect. Anna can also dispose of her creations by erasing the text, causing the grimoires to fail to establish proper circulation of power absorbed from the ley lines and rupture from within.
The dispensed charcoal on Christmas Day was the size of a fist and had a small indentation which a finger could be stuck into. By doing so, toying with the thick reddish-black substance on her fingertips and moving her hand as if carving something into the world, Anna wrote text on a nearby table, pillar and snowman decoration, animating them as grimoires. By wiping the paint from her fingertips, Anna caused the text to melt away and the makeshift grimoires to collapse.
Rose cross staff	"World's oldest 'human-made' miracle of the rose"	
A staff resembling a giant gold cross decorated with a red ruby rose, obtained and by Anna during the battle with Alice Anotherbible. Chapter 4 Part 2 Considering it excellent luck to acquire, Anna described the gold cross and ruby rose, the Rose Cross, as the world's oldest 'human-made' miracle of the rose, supposedly originating in ancient times but first depicted in the middle ages and rediscovered in more recent times. She claimed it symbolized the destruction of the origin, bringing death through disillusionment, and containing the violence found in the magic of extreme growth and maturity.
By merely raising the staff, without incantation or magic circle, flames appeared and were released from the staff towards Anna's opponent. These magical flames were described as shooting forward with a liquid motion and scorching space itself regardless of physical material, though Alice was easily able to bind them. It was also able to produce a powerful burst of wind at will, that split the Executioner in half.
===="Breakers"====
During her battle with the combination of Kamijou Touma and St. Germain, Anna made use of Aiwass to form and wield powers in her right hand, matching her opponent's use of a right hand in a case of deception, misdirection and mockery. This mimicry is not the same type of power as Imagine Breaker and Anna's right hand is not special in the same way, being an application of magic. When starting off, Anna ordered Aiwass, who disappeared from her side, with his name and the command .
Anna made use of a Hebrew-based rose spell to determine the nature of the power formed within her right hand using the energy of Aiwass. It is based on the symbol of the rose with twenty-two petals, used by both the Rosicrucian Order and the Golden Dawn. Each of this rose's petals is associated with one of the 22 Hebrew characters, which fields such as Kabbalah (often used by the Rosen) and Hermeticism say can be used to explain the entire world - with the rose symbol representing the world. Chapter 3 Part 6 The petals and letters are divided into three groups; the outer ring has twelve petals associated with the Zodiac constellations and colors, then seven petals associated with the seven metals and their respective planets, and finally three central petals. The letters associated with the central three are Shin (ש), Mem (ם) and Aleph (א), representing the elements of fire, water and wind respectively, with the element of earth not present.
The possibilities are not limited to the number of petals and the combinations not limited by the three starting characters. With Gematria, characters are assigned numbers and two words with the same number are considered to have the same meaning. For characters and combination with a multiple-digit value, the digits are added together to produce a single-digit number - these can be read simply as they are or read as a sum (e.g. Shin's numerical value is 300, which becomes 3 - this can be 3 (Gimel) or 1+2 (Aleph and Bet)). Depending on how it is broken down, the possibilities are endless, and Anna has well over a million attack options. The initial values of Shin, Mem and Aleph are 1, 40 and 300 respectively.
Anna does not use a rose accessory for her spell to switch between powers, instead using her left hand and the elemental correspondence of the fingers (from the thumb to the little finger; ether, water, fire, earth and wind). By bending her index (water), middle (fire), and little (wind) fingers, Anna can switch their respective elements (corresponding to the central three petals and letters of the rose) on or off. Using this method, Anna can create whatever Hebrew character she wants in her left palm to control her angel and the power formed within her right hand.
Anna initially named these powers to match Imagine Breaker's name (e.g. Structure Breaker, Article Breaker, , , Gravity Breaker, etc.These last three names were not given by Anna herself but through examples considered by the narration or Touma's thoughts.), but gave up on naming them after tiring of the 'Breaker' pattern. The powers produced in Anna's right hand in this manner included:
Name 	Effects
 	Through the movements of her hand, Anna can slice through space, regardless of the distance and material in her way. Her touch described as negating the world, it will tear through whatever is in the affected area along with the dimension and space itself.
Unnamed	A burning right hand that can burn holes through a cloud of hydrofluorocarbon steam. By placing two fingers against her lips and blowing out like with a whistle, Anna can blow sticky orange flames, reminiscent of a flamethrower or napalm, from her mouth.
 	With a snap of Anna's fingers, bluish-white sparks scatter with an ephemeral flashing. Once this flashing is as bright as a blowtorch, it causes electrical equipment in the vicinity (e.g. LCD signs, lights, air conditioning, train power lines, phones etc) to explode like a cluster bomb.
 	By raising a finger and spinning round, Anna gathers nearby objects (e.g. metal trashcans, cleaning robots, street lights, wind turbines etc) into a single large mass, swing it around her as though attached to an invisible chain, building up centrifugal force before flinging it at her target in an attack which uses both supernatural and physical power.
Unnamed	A use of power which was used to deal with flames from a crashed airship, either freezing the area or eliminating the flames and heat.
Unnamed	A swing of Anna's hand causes a gust of wind to blow through.
Unnamed	Anna's use of this power causes a flood of caustic acid spread out like an amoeba.
Unnamed	A swing of the hand with this power causes a bright light to burst out and slam into a target.
Unnamed	Swinging her palm from a distance, Anna causes three explosions in quick succession.
Unnamed	
Formed through Mem and Shin (40 + 300) which, with the digits split out separately and summed together, comes out to 7 - the true character extracted being Zayin (Z). This corresponds to the path between Binah and Tiferet (understanding and beauty) on the Sephiroth and the Lovers in Tarot, with the meaning of sword or armor. By using her fingers, Anna can apparently slice through things at a distance, closing two fingers to create a massive invisible maw with her target's head between its jaws.
Anna's use of this power was interrupted when Touma threw a golden decoration in the shape of a Capricorn sign (with the essence of the element of earth, which has no place in the center of the rose) towards her, interfering with her control of her spell and causing a white light comparable to a blowtorch to explosively expand within her grasp, forcing her to grab her wrist with her other hand in a brief attempt to control it.
Anna had previously used slicing powers (including Structure Breaker), slicing through a power line and an airship, though it is not clear whether those powers and this one were one and the same or different variations.

==Trivia==
*According to Kamachi Kazuma, he is focusing on making Anna Sprengel a character who initially appears as a great ruler reigning over everything but is actually full of holes, seeming similar to Leivinia Birdway (young on the outside, perfect on the inside) but actually the opposite. Due to her role in the creation of the Golden Dawn, he wanted to give her an oddly powerful allure which draws people in like a black hole. Afterword
