Berenice takes pride as member of group and has no obligation of showing her pride in front her comrades and enemies. She appears annoy majority of her comrades and seems it a few members in the organization that she doesn't get along with.

Like majority of her comrades she sees Yhwach as a god and unbeatable even calling it just luck that Ichigo Kurosaki defeated him the first time.

She appears to look down on the him for three reasons. One his lack minimal fighting skills, two she thinks he is mad because obsessional and freaking experiments comparing him to a mad a Scientist. Three for being Arrancar which according to her is basically a type of Hollows. She even threated the latter saying that if it weren't the Coalition that she would kill when her leader demanded it.

## **Powers and Abilities**

As a member of the Sternritters, Berenice is among the strongest fighters within the Wandenreich. So far in the war she was able to defeat two high ranking members of the Whitebeard Pirates, Vista and Jozu

She was able to fight with Lucy Heartfillia before being defeated by her and nearly defeated Bartolomeo.

**The Question** (異議 (ザ・クエスチョン), *Za Kuesuchon*; Japanese for "*Objection*"): Berenice claims she can force her opponents to question everything about themselves and their abilities. Such as, having her enemies question themselves if they are strong enough or having themselves question about their past failures or regrets, thus could lead them to committing suicide. However it does have its limits, as it cannot effect those who are hard of hearing, nor does affect those who do not question themselves.

**Reishi Manipulation**: As a Quincy, Berenice primarily absorbs Reishi from the atmosphere, and combines it with her own Reiryoku to form weapons. She has an easier time collecting this energy in environments with higher concentrations of Reishi such as in Soul Society or Hueco Mundo.

* **Hirenkyaku Expert:**
* **Blut** (血装 (ブルート), *burūto*; German for "*Blood*", Japanese for "*Blood Guise*"): A Quincy ability that gives one inhuman defensive & offensive capability. By making Reishi flow into their blood vessels, a Quincy can increase their attack and defense power drastically. **Blut** is significantly dangerous, but it has one big flaw - the two forms of **Blut** for attack and defense work using two different Reishi systems, so they cannot be used at the same time.
	+ **Blut Vene** (静血装 (ブルート・ヴェーネ), *burūto vēne*; German for "*Blood Vein*", Japanese for "*Stilled Blood Guise*"):
		- **Blut Vene Stiche** (German for **"**Blood Vein Stitches"): Allow her to use her own blood to stitch up an injury.
* **Ransōtengai** (乱装天傀, Heavenly Wild Puppet Suit; Viz "**Disheveled Paradise Puppet**"): This is a high level technique that allows the user to control their body parts using strings of spirit energy controlled by their brain, forming lines or strings out of Reishi. By using this technique, the user can control their body as one would a puppet, allowing them to move freely despite paralysis, broken limbs, or any other force that would impede normal movement.

**Great Spiritual Power**: As a member of the Sternritters, Berenice's spiritual power is on a level comparable to or greater than that of a captain-level Soul Reaper.

### Spirit Weapon

**Heilig Bogen:** Take the form of a crossbow.

* **Heilig Pfeil** (神聖滅矢 (ハイリッヒ・プファイル), *Hairihhi Pufairu*; German for "*Holy Arrow*", Japanese for "*Sacred Destruction Arrows*"): Her arrows have a common pointy tip, but they end in a slight curve at the end like a question mark in away.
	+ Verstreuten Pfeil (German for "Scattered Arrow"):

**Heilig Dagger**
