### Occupations

Hero

**Pepesha Andreanova** (ペペシャ＝アンドレアノワ *Pepesha Andoreanowa*?), better known as **Spirits** (スピリッツ *Supirittsu*?), is Russia's Hero and Shy's mentor and friend.

## Appearance

Pepesha is a tall, beautiful woman in her late twenties with fair complexion. She has long, wavy blond hair with spiky bangs and her fringe is divided in three: some locks stay in front of her face just above her nose and others emoldurate her round face by each side of her head. She also has big, mesmerizing, bright blue eyes and blond eyelashes. The Russian Hero is almost always seen drunk and, as such, she also always has a relaxed expression of flushed cheeks.

As Spirits, she wears a black bodysuit underneath a white fluffy turtleneck blue shirt with matching shorts, utility belt, blue gloves and mid-sized black boots with platform and laces, in addition to her own pair of Heart Conversion Bracelets with blue lines on her wrists.

After being injured by Sveta Kooriskaya on their first encounter, Pepesha was treated by Lady Black, and dressed in a tank top, belted pants and sneakers; she had worn her hair in a high ponytail and a bandage had been placed over the wound. On Teru Momijiyama's visit to Russia, Pepesha wore a jacket over a sweater, shorts with pantyhose, and boots; she styled her hair in a barrette and wore a beret on her head, as well as sunglasses.

## Personality

She is well known as an alcoholic and is usually seen drunk. It is revealed, however, that she drinks due to her mother's influence, who also drank to show more emotions to her daughter. Despite all this, independent of her identity at the moment, she showed herself as an extremely reliable person even if she doesn't seem like that. She is a great Hero that Shy has her expectations on and, as shown many times, Spirits is always open to give her advice about her life as a Hero.

Pepesha is very empathetic and loves to help people, even though she knows herself that she can't save everyone and told this to Shy when she was afraid of social reprisal due to not saving properly Iko Koishikawa in the past. Spirits is also very protective of Teru and can become impulsive if she sees her in danger, as seen when Stardust started beating her up. She is also very open about what she thinks of people as when she stated that she "hates Stardust's guts".

According to Natalia, Pepesha was quite quiet when she was younger, just like her mother. Her love for alcohol also came from Letana, since she was a different person when drunk. Pepesha, too, becomes more relaxed when drinking, and she herself points out to Teru that she wouldn't recognize her sober.

## Equipment

**Heart Conversion Bracelets** (転 (てん) 心 (しん) 輪 (りん)  *Tenshinrin*?): As any Hero, Pepesha has possession of a pair of bracelets which synchronizes her Heart spirit into power.

* **Smoke** (ふわふわ *Fuwa Fuwa*?): From her bracelets, Spirits is able to turn into smoke, thus becoming intangible, as no physical attack can harm her in this state.
	+ **Gas Cannon** (ふわふわ砲 (ほう)  *Fuwa Fuwa-hō*?): Spirit concentrates a mass of highly compressed air in her palms and releases it against her opponents. It was first used against Keheheh Kekerakera, and its strength was enough to send her flying. It is Spirit's signature technique.

## Quotes

* (To Lenya Andreanova) "*People may call me a Hero now... The source of my love will forever stay the same. Since the day you gave it to me, forever... It will never change... It will always be you, Mama.*"

## Trivia
