Melville

==Summary==
Mashiro Kuji is a magical girl who seems calm and somewhat distant, speaking in a way that makes it hard for others to understand. In reality, she is a cold woman with very little regard for the lives of others, only valuing power. She believes the weak have no place, especially among magical girls. After meeting Cranberry and surviving her exam, she aligned her philosophy with hers, decided to become like her and became her pupil. However, while they are both magical girl killers, she doesn't share Cranberry's appreciation of fair fights and instead uses any and all methods to win, with no morals. Her magical girl name is Melville. During the events of Restart, she's part of Team Bell, alongside Lapis Lazuline, with whom she gets decently along, and Cherna Mouse.

At least Multi-City Block level+, likely Small Town level with Power Talisman (Much stronger than Rionetta, and stronger than Clantail.

Melville trained directly under Cranberry), Higher with bow and arrows (She was confident she could defeat Lapis Lazuline if she attacked at range rather than in melee)

Stamina: Superhuman. As a magical girl, she has hugely improved stamina and resistance to fatigue (moreover, she doesn't need to eat or to sleep). Fighting against other magical girls for a while, running kilometers and rescuing people for several hours doesn’t affect her at all. Magical Girls can stay active for multiple days without rest, resist freezing cold and scorching heat.
Range: Standard Melee Range, Hundreds of Meters with javelins and arrows

*Optional Equipment: Bow and unlimited ammo of arrows, Unlimited ammo of javelins, Water Charm, Holy Charm, Power Talisman, Shield
Intelligence: Above Average, possibly Gifted in combat. Having trained directly under Cranberry and accompanied her on several death games, Melville has learned most of her fighting methods and thought processes from her, making her very quick-witted and adaptable. She will also use any trick and ruse available to win, with no regard for others' lives. She went on a murder spree during Restart without ever being suspected, fooled everyone regarding Cherna Mouse's death, defeated Rionetta, brushed off Clantail, held her own against Lapis Lazuline and even defeated her, one of the most skilled characters in the story.
Weaknesses: Can sometimes be hot-headed. None of the regular human weaknesses. If she becomes unconscious, she turns back into a human and loses all the magical girl advantages.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Color Manipulation: Melville’s magic is to change the color palette of anything she touches or herself, for an unlimited duration that stays in effect even after her death. For example, she can thus effectively turn invisible by merging with her surroundings, erase the color of the ground across an area and turn it black to confuse enemies, create a "clone/illusion" away from or over her to trick and bait her opponents, or seemingly erase texts and pictures on technological devices and paper. She has also learned how to decrease her sound emission to some extent (though not as well as Cranberry), as her magic only affects eyesight, and can thus still be detected through smell or hearing.
