**Minerva Coruyja** is the youngest child and daughter of the Migratory Hunter and Muut, she is the younger half-sister of Rene and the younger sister of Tiberius.

## Abilities and Skills

* **Demigoddess Physiology** - Minerva is half-Aesiran through her father and half-Celestial through her mother, but strangely enough when Muut had children with a completely different co-species then her, it enhanced and maintained a strong connection to their Celestial heritage. So, Minerva is technically a lit demigoddess with a significant biological upgrade.
	+ **Immense Spiritual Pressure** - Due to being a demigod, Minerva has a natural affinity to using spiritual energy without critically damaging herself due in fact to her mother Muut, a celestial. According to her aunt Itzpa, she's a *"baby death god"* which means she's on a captain's level in terms of raw power but lacks focus and experience.
		- **Necromancy** - Due to her heritage, Minerva possesses the ability to control and summon the dead, Minerva calls the dead she summons "*her subordinates*" and she is able to boss around creatures of the Underworld who have escaped.
			* **Power Over the Undead** - Minerva can reanimate skeletons, summon Skeleton Warriors, put them to sleep, and destroy them. During the (battle under the sea) she was able to summon over a dozen skeleton warriors all by herself. This is a powerful ability as it allows her to have an army anytime, she wants. Summoning too many undead warriors at one time can cause fatigue.
				+ **Osteokinesis** - She is able to summon and telekinetically control bones.
			* **Sensitivity to Death** - Minerva can sense death as it happens or when it is coming; when a person close to her dies, it comes as a ringing in the ears. In addition to that, she has a deep knowledge of the Underworld and knows when a person's life is being judged in the Underworld about 80%.
				+ **Life Sense** - She can sense life auras. This can help her determine how much longer someone has left to live.
			* **Mediumship** - Minerva since she was a small baby could see and communicate with ghosts and other spirits, and she never was afraid of them like her siblings as a majority of the afterlife know her and hold her in high respect and regard.
	+ **Abnormal Muscular Constitution** - She, like other Aesirans, possesses natural and instinctive fighting abilities and physical strength that far surpass human capabilities. (\*&\*) has suggested that Minerva is among the highest elite of the Aesirans, equal only to (\*&\*), Tiberius, Fulkō, (\*&\*) and Delphyni, meaning her abilities far exceed that of an average Aesirans, but her kind nature holds her back, only when she is "awakened" can she use it to her full potential though this is only (\*&\*)'s opinion.
		- **Enhanced Strength** - Minerva is also physically very strong, as she is capable of carrying two large weights in her arms while still being able to run at the same time. She has incredible leg strength as she can topple a massive pot of boiling soup towards (\*&\*) with a kick.
		- **Enhanced Durability** -
		- **Enhanced Speed** - Minerva is immensely quick and agile, having effortlessly dodged a slash from (\*&\*). She is also capable of flipping backward multiple times and attacking immediately afterwards. Mimi can levitate and jump in midair as well as jump extremely high. She is highly perceptive and has incredible reflexes.
		- **Enhanced Metabolism** - A trait Minerva inherits from her Aesiran side, no matter how much she eats, Mimi can never gain weight or get any fatter.
	+ **Laser Tail** - Minerva is able to fire laser beams from the tip of her tail. However, her tail is both her weapon and her weakness, for it is very sensitive.
* **Familiar Contract** - Her familiar is the inugami she renamed Saramar.
