==Powers And Stats==
Tier: , at least with Picchi Gemellati | At least 
Name: Souju, Ayase Souju, Luka / Ruka Souju | Zweiköpfiger Böser Flügel
Origin: Puella Magi Kazumi Magica
Gender: Female
Age: Likely in her teens.
Classification: Magical Girl with a Split Personality | Merged Witch
Powers and Abilities: Puella Magi Physiology, Multiple Selves (Type 1 & 2, both girls are magical girls), Teleportation & improved Telekinesis (Both abilities are not limited to herself, as shown when she teleported the soul gems of several magical girls around her), possibly Reality Warping (The background around her warped, seemingly pulling the amusement park around her), Fire Manipulation via Avviso dell' Ustione, Homing Attack & Danmaku via Secundo Stagione, Ice Manipulation via Caso Freddo, improved Fusionism (Capable of both personalities becoming magical girls at the same time, transforming into an even more powerful magical girl), Explosion Manipulation (By combining their two conflicting powers, they can create explosions several times more powerful than she should be capable of), possibly Power Nullification with Picchi Gemellati (Managed to bypass Limiti Esterni, which has the ability to erase anything it comes in contact with), possibly Fate Manipulation (The witch description of their witch reveals they merged either as result of their witch or by bending fate, apparently they were so spiteful they choose to become a witch that doesn't drop a grief seed). | Witch Physiology (Puella Magi), Flight
Attack Potency: City level individually (Capable of burning several of Niko's clones into ashes, each one being comparable to the original and having their own soul gem), at least City level with Picchi Genellati (Capable of injuring Kazumi, although Souju was probably holding back. Overpowered Kazumi's own Limiti Esterni and even a second time when Kazumi had the help of Niko) | At least City level (Overpowered the barriers of several other witches upon being born, including the witch of Saki Asami)
Speed: At least Massively Hypersonic
Lifting Strength: At least Class 5, likely Class 50 once merged (Individually, she's stronger than Niko but once merged poses a threat even to Kazumi Subaru).
Striking Strength: City level (Deflected or cut through multiple of Niko's finger grenades, punched a hole through Niko although didn't managed to get completely through), likely higher once merged.
Durability: Unknown (Survived being sent flying from the shockwaves of Kazumi Subaru's and Niko's Hot and Cold attack, but she was fairly away from the initial blast epicenter), Higher for her Soul Gem (Soul Gems tend to be the most durable part of a magical girl, as their purpose is to provide a safe, compact 'body' for magical girls according to Kyubey.) | City level (Was hit down from the air from a singular swipe of Kazumi Subaru's wand / staff, and one-shot by her Limiti Esterni)
Stamina: At least Peak Human, likely Superhuman (Should at least be on par with Homura Akemi, who is rated as one of the lowest in terms of stamina. Can be comparable to Sayaka Miki who is ranked slightly higher.) 
Range: Tens of Meters with most attacks, possibly Hundreds of Meters with Reality Warping. The soul gem can only possess the magical girl's body up to 100 meters away; Kilometers with Extrasensory Perception (All magical girls can detect the usage of magic and the existence of curses from within their cities, sometimes even outside their own city), likely Kilometers once she becomes a Witch
Standard Equipment: Her soul gems, several other soul gems, two katanas, and likely some grief seeds.
Intelligence: Gifted (Capable of regularly pulling off attacks that would fail if off by even a millisecond according Niko, has the combined intelligence of two experienced magical girls in her disposal whom have defeated several magical girls without intending to kill)
Weaknesses: Destroying the soul gem would instantly kill one personality.
Notable Attacks and Techniques:
<tabber>
|-|Souju's Abilities=
* Avviso dell' Ustione: Souju fires off several dark fireballs, each capable of destroying one of Nico's clones and their individual soul gems.
** Secondo Stagione: A variation of her fire magic that targets her opponent(s) in a flurry of fire.
* Caso Freddo: A simple ability to freeze her opponents.
* Picchi Gemellati: By combining her fire and ice magic, Souju can create an explosion several times greater in scope than her regular magic. This requires incredible synchronization to pull off, but as the Souju personalities share the same body, she can bypass this weakness.
|-|General Magical Girl & Witch Abilities=
* Weapon Creation: Most Puella Magi are capable of creating weapons out of thin air using their magic. While most select specific weapons, some with a heightened mastery of their abilities can create different weapons with their own minor capabilities.
** Telekinesis: On top of creating weapons, they can also control their weapons in the air and with no limit to how much at a time. The same applies to many weapons that they have enhanced.
* Puella Magi Physiology: Because their bodies no longer harbor a soul, they effectively act like flesh puppets that have no real impact on the 'essence' of a magical girl. According to several interviews and in-series showings, a magical girl can have all their blood drained from their body and still fight with little impairment, or have their head torn off or shot through and still walk just fine.
** Fusionism: When two opposing magical abilities (Like Fire Manipulation and Ice Manipulation) or opposing main abilities (Like a magical girl who wished for Creation and another who wished for Existence Erasure) combine their attacks, the result is an attack the multiplies in power. In addition, if two soul gems were to harbor the same body, the result can be them swapping control or fusing into one magical girl, albeit temporarily.
** Extrasensory Perception: Magical Girls were shown to be capable of detecting despair and magic from within their cities as well as being able to telepathically communicate with one another. As of Magia Record, it is shown that their abilities extend well into other cities and is not limited to emotions or magic.
* Barrier: The standard ability for most witches, the barrier is a small pocket universe that can greatly vary in terms of size made to protect the witch from the outside world, only accessible by magical girls or when witches allow access. They are based around the witch's former life's mental condition.
* Familiar Summoning: Another standard ability, a witch can summon several familiars (or create alongside the barrier) to fight on her behalf. If they absorb enough life energy, they can become duplicates of the witch itself.
* Witch's Kiss: Witches can manipulate the mind on innocent bystanders by thought (not an actual kiss), often causing them to commit suicide or create suicidal cults.
* Absorption: A witch can passively absorb the life energy of those who enter their barriers. However, this is a rather lengthy process.
* Reality Warping: A witch can manipulate reality to cause issues for their enemies. This has been shown from manipulating the outsides of the barrier to attack the enemy, preventing them from even entering, or manipulate unresistant enemies themselves.

Feats:
* Individually, Souju had managed to destroy three bodies of Nico through her fire magic alone. Notably, the Puella Magi can resist fires hot enough to reduce a regular person to ash with little difficulty.
