Immacolata - Powers and Abilities

Powers and Abilities

Immacolata has the ability to manifest raptures: like most of the Seerkind, she is able to produce illusions that mentally influence its receivers. Her most distinguishing aspect is the fact that she wields the menstruum: a glaring and strangely "alive" force that enables her to fly, create a shield around her body, unleash potentially lethal beams and much more, as soon as she concentrates enough to fully manifest it. Immacolata mentions at one point that only women can wield the menstruum (as does Suzanna later) and also that this force has driven many women mad and/or suicidal. The term itself seems to come from the same word which denotes the initial flow of menstrual blood (thus reaffirming the association of this power with womanhood). She also possesses several spells as well as the ability of seeing visions and communicating telepathically with her sisters. She is also able to summon several abominations and half-aborted monsters and control them. Additionally, she can attempt to alter the nature of certain objects, thanks to the menstruum. Because of her magical abilities and the menstruum, she did not age (she remained biologically young, although she was already hundreds of years old). Thanks to her necromantic abilities (she can summon the phantasms whose souls she has collected, including her sisters') she also possibly became a ghost herself following her death, finally joining her sisters in the same plane.
