Elise Goody

Elise Goody (伍為る) is one of the Four Horsemen of Callisto. He is a Magician who specializes in Light Magic and is considered one of the beast tamer of animals. He holds the title as "Ruler of Famine" (払底, Futtei).

## Appearance

Elise is an androgynous-looking boy who is usually fancily dressed in a black skirt and black shirt addressed in an armor of silver and gold. Beautiful beyond all compare, he states that his hair ornaments, which seem like something a princess would wear, are an "irresistible proof of friendship" that he uses to restore peace to his depressively mad boon ally, Lucy.

Elise has long pink and braided hair, that reaches to his hip with a streak of white in his hair. His eyes bright purple, and a fanged tooth that twinkles in the light whenever he smiles. A black bow in his hair he received as a gift from Ikuto when the boy was younger.

He purposefully dresses as a girl because he likes cute things. He hums "le Secret♪" whenever someone asks what his gender is.

## Personality

Elise is known for being eternally too optimistic and completely lacking in sense, and he can be called "curiosity in human form."
He's more concerned with the current prospect of a second life over all else, he is one who will, with or without permission from either Grim or any of the other Horsemen, instantly leave when not in conflict to indulge in the pleasures of the world. He greatly enjoys physical form rather than the usual practice of being kept in spirit form except for battle, and obtaining permission to do so is enough to cause him to dance for joy.
He is a frightfully unparalleled blabbermouth, prone to speaking on and on until those involved lose all rationality. His conversations, through no ill intent on his part, have a way of meandering toward maximum social awkwardness.
His hobby of adventuring gets himself mixed up in an assorted amount of mischief due to him constantly popping up everywhere. For example, popping up when he meets Kida for the first time in the Human World because he accidently managed to transport himself their on accident while she was running around looking for a puppy Eden.
Elise leaves all hard decisions as a matter for his heart to decide on the spot, following the course he deems most fit. He does as he pleases without regret, and such obviousness, of course, would be hard to fathom from anyone other than him. He decides to save Henry entirely on such a pretense, and not knowing how far he will be able to help, simply states "I'll keep helping him until I stop."

## Abilities.

### **Genius Meister**

According to Grim herself, Elise talents as a meister is so great he can learn how to master a weapon to a certain extent if he even gets slightly curious about a certain weapon form.
Stein displays skill with the usage of Mjolnir against Medusa.

**Utility Meister** (ユーティリティ職人, *Yūtiriti Shokunin*):
As a powerful Meister and capable fighter, Stein is capable of wielding many different kind of weapons with considerable skill and finesse. Among those weapons Stein is capable of using Mjolnir with incredible profiency and finesse, capable of using in both the hammer form and the tonfo form, being able to easly take on Justin Law where he would even resort to retreating when Stein used Mjolnir's Lightning Rope,[16] even when the rogue Death Scythe merged with the Clown and used his abilities as a stationary weapon to his advantage, Stein manage to defeat and kill Justin.[17]
[1]Stein's Fighting Style in use.

* **Scythe-Meister** (鎌職人, *Kama Shokunin*): Mainly, Franken Stein is known to be an extremely skilled Scythe-Meister and normally employs Death Scytheas his main weapon of choice when using a scythe. As a Scythe-Meister, he's very adept at handling a Scythe enough to spin and twirl a scythe weapon with ease.[18] When using Spirit, his fighting style revolves around the using his scythe weapon as a shield to block attacks and immediately counter-attack with his left hand with powerful attacks such as Soul Menace.[19] His skill has enabled him to fairly easily and quickly outmatch Crona using the Demon Sword against him[20] He also was able to fight on par with the witch, Medusa, and eventually won.[21]
* **Lamp Meister** (ランプ職人, *Ranpu Shokunin*): Stein has shown the ability to use a Lantern as a weapon such as the Demon Lamp with remarkable abillity. While able to use it similar Kim Diehl's method, he can also improvise and use it like that of a propeller for his fists for extra damage, having done so against Soul Evans when he found he couldn't allow the formidable Death Scythe to touch the normal Demon Weapon without Jacqueline feeling pain due to the difference in power between the two weapons.[22]

[2]Stein gains the upperhand between a spar with Black Star.
**Hand-to-Hand Combat** (体術たいじゆつ, *Taijutsu*): Stein is exceptionally skilled in hand-to-hand combat[23] With his unarmed combat skills combined with his various skills, he's been able to easily take down Maka Albarn and Black☆Star with they both used their weapons in their first altercation[3] and seemingly gain the upper-hand in his spar with Black☆Star even after he improved his skills greatly.[24] He's also not above with abandoning the use of his weapon and relying on some of his unarmed ability, evident as he did so during his battle against Crona.[25]

**Enhanced Strength**: Stein has enough strength to kick Crona away a fair distance away when he saved Maka as well as break down the Santa Mario Novella Basilica with a kick whearas Maka wasn't able to push open due to the doors only opening inwards.[26] His punch also managed to send Black☆Star a distance away.[27]
[3]Stein moving at high speeds to intercept Maka.
**Enhanced Speed**: Stein possesses incredible speed, moving fast enough to appear as a blur as he rushed to Medusa during his fight with her.[28] He also managed to allude Ragnarok's eye sight moments after performing **Experimental Ectoplasm** and when the weapon quickly emerged from Crona's body.[29]

**Enhanced Durability**:Stein has taken multiple bloody-needles from Crona on his side of both his body and head and continued to be able to fight despite the injuries.[30] He's also survived being drilled though and hit by Medusa Gorgon's Vector Arrows at close range.[31]

**Genius Intellect**: Stein is an extremely intelligent individual, being resourceful in the medical field and is considered brilliant though eccentric and unlicensed as well as various rumors surrounding him tinkering his own body and performing zombie experiments,[32] eventually resurrecting Sid Barrett as a zombie.[33] He's also knowledgeable in Soul Studies and even has knowledge on Magic and spells.

* **Medical and Surgical Skills**: According to Anya, Stein is a brilliant (but eccentric) unlicensed doctor. He's capable of performing advance, life-saving surgeries as well as treating and aid ailments caused by even Magic.[4][34]

* **Zombie** (ゾンビ, *Zonbi*): Stein knows how to revive the dead as zombies like that of Sid Barrett most likely from his extensive medical capabilities. The prerequisites and procedure of reviving an individual into a Zombie has yet to be seen.[3]

**Spatial Sense**: Stein's senses are even acute enough to be able to sense when space itself is being twisted.[35]

### List of techniquesEdit

Standalone techniques
* **Soul Perception** (魂感知, *Tamashī Kanchi*): Franken Stein is able to sense and perceive the souls of other beings. Unlike most Meisters, not only can he simply see the souls himself, but his Soul Perception is also at such a high level that he can read an individual's personality, characteristics and Soul Wavelength.[3]

Wavelength Control techniques
* **Adjust** (相殺, *Sōsai*)[36]: With his control over his own wavelength, he stated that he can easily counter the attacks of certain soul wavelength attacks (such as Ultimate Move: Black☆Star Big Wave) by adjusting the characteristics of his Wavelength to match others, in which causes it to lose it's power. The relationship is similar to the Soul Resonance between that of a meister and weapon.[35]
* **Soul Resonance** (魂の共鳴, *Tamashī no Kyōmei*): Stein is capable of synchronizing his wavelength with other Demon Weapon and performing more powerful techniques as a result of his given weapon amplifying his wavelength sent by him, sending the amplified wavelength back to Stein, and repeating the process.[7]
* **Teamwise Soul Resonance** (チームでの魂の共鳴, *Chīmu de no Tamashī no Kyōmei*): Stein is capable of synchronizing his wavelength with multiple teams of Weapons and Meisters through an indirect connection between their souls.[37]

[4]Stein uses Soul Menace to incapacitate Black☆Star

* **Soul Menace** (魂威, *Kon'i*): Franken Stein is a very skilled and powerful practitioner of the special art known as Soul Menace, in which allows him to apply his own Soul Wavelength offensively without the usage of a weapon. This ability allows him to attack with a variety of techniques in which mimic the properties of electricity.[38] This move also allows him to deal deadly internal damage powerful enough to negate the usage of the Black Blood from Crona/Ragnarok after three usages during their battle as well as send his opponents at a distance due to it's powerful force as well has a variety of technique variation thanks to this art[39] as well as easily "kill" White Rabbit in one hit. Black☆Star once remarked that unlike himself, Stein is able to fire Soul Menaces consecutively without build-up and admits Stein's profiency over Soul Menace surpasses his.[40]

Soul Menace variations
[5]Two Palm Soul Menace: Twin Spears

* **Two Palm Soul Menace - Twin Spears** (二掌魂威・双槍, *Nishō Kon'i - Sōsō*):A variation of the attack Soul Menace that instead makes use of both hands, rather than just one. However, due to the inclusion of an extra hand, the attack's power is greatly amplified and able to incapacitate even strong opponents.[41]
* **Consecutive Soul Menace Three-Fold! "Gi" "Go" "Shoku"** (掌魂威 参極「魏」「呉」「蜀」, *Renshō Kon'i - Sangoku "Gi" "Go" "Shoku*): A variation of the Soul Menace technique, that instead rapidly hits an opponent three times in succession, using the same fist. The attack inflicts enough internal damage to cause the target to bleed from the mouth.[42]

### WeaknessesEdit

[6]Stein is sensitive to Madness itself.
Perhap's Stein's most well-known weakness is his sensitivity to Madness, having himself noted that he's especially sensitive to Asura's Madness Wavelength[43] and even felt Arachne's Madness Wavelength even from the Czech Republic, despite being in Death City located in Nevada.[44] This can cause him to have difficulty concentrating[45] and always puts him at risk of losing his sanity.

During his battle with Medusa Gorgon, Spirit Albarn once noted that due to having not fought a serious opponent in a long time has caused him to "lose his edge" and also lost the ability to intimidate.[46]Despite being a powerful Meister, he's still able to have trouble with high-caliber opponents like Medusa. He also admitted himself while his spar with Black☆Star that the assassin himself knows he can get just as "jammed up" as anyone else in regular hand-to-hand combat when he got distracted by the power of the latter's Soul Menace.[47]
