Seraphita Polaris/Ether

**PHASE PHENOMENON TRANSFER**
**相現象移**

**Background**

Seraphita’s Ether full name is “Phase Phenomenon Transfer”, but is often shortened as “Phase” to be more simple.

Seraphita's Ether was not inherited, it was designed by purpose for her within the Polaris Project. The Ether was envisioned to be able to handle entire armies on its own at maximum potential, which is why the Starfall Foundation considers her Ether the most powerful or useful in that context. If Seraphita fully mastered her Ether, she would be able to provide unlimited artillery and battery to the Foundation, as well as being the best soldier on the fronts.

**Fundamentals**

This Ether allows Seraphita to turn, to *"phase"according to Seraphita* into any inanimate object that she or somebody else desires. Seraphita mostly uses her Ether to turn into tools and weapons, making her tremendously useful in most situations.

**Manifestation :** Seraphita can manifest a copy of herself of the object she can turn into, and these are temporary copies of herself. Proprieties are the same as Seraphita's original body.

**Scaling :** She is free to choose the size and scale of what she turns into. She notably likes to turn into a gigantic pair of scissor as a unique kind of weapon by example.

**Catalyst :** Anybody that possess an energy-related Ether can store and multpily the effect of their Ether within Seraphita in her phase state. It can then be released later alongside an attack if she is used as a weapon. She acts as a catalyst and Ether storage, which can prove itself to be useful when combined with manifestations allowing for great Ether storage on Operations.

**Requirements**

In order for Seraphita to turn into the desired object, she must have comprehensive knowledge of the object in question. This implies that Seraphita needs to know the inner workings, the structural composition and atomic/molecular configuration of the said object.

Seraphita needs to have Ether in stock in order to "phase". The transformation itself is what costs her Ether, but anything she turns into does not actively consume Ether, unlike how most transformative Ethers work. The bigger and the more intricate the transformation is, the more Ether the transformation will take in energy.

**Limitations**

This Ether can only let Seraphita turn into inanimate objects, which excludes all forms of living beings. This means that she is not capable of mimicry in a traditional sense.

In her phase state, Seraphita is more reactive to stimuli such as pain, pleasure, strain and fatigue. It implies that using Seraphita as a weapon can be very painful to her if not wielded correctly. Forcefully injecting Ether into Seraphita can also heavily harm her. A feedback loop of stimuli can happen when multiple manifestations are present or when she hands out one to somebody else, which can create dangerous situations.

Seraphita can only manifest up to 2 (later on, 5) copies of herself in phase state. Those copies are subject to the same constraints as Seraphita herself and those manifestation cannot turn into another object or in human state. This means that the manifestation has to be phased out in order to create a different one. Seraphita herself is not subject to that limitation as it is her original body.

The catalyst aspect of her Ether is related to affinity and synergy between Seraphita and the user. The greater the two are, the easier it is for Seraphita to store, multiply the wielder's Ether and in turn, it is easier for the wielder to use Seraphita proficiently without hurting her.
