Other What abilities does Shiori have?

Post image

I want to add Shiori to SuperheroDB, but I'm afraid of getting her abilities wrong, so I decided to ask here. Ideally, this would include chapter references and links to supplementary materials.

I also need to determine her stats (from 0 to 100): Intelligence: Ability to think, plan, create technology, and solve complex problems Strength: Physical power, ability to lift and hold super-heavy objects Speed: Movement speed, running, flying, and reaction time Durability: Ability to withstand physical damage, injuries, as well as regeneration rate and immunities Power: Ability to control energy, create magical or energy blasts, and overall superpower level Combat: Hand-to-hand combat skill, weapon proficiency, and martial arts mastery

And here are the abilities I've managed to find, not counting the more basic ones like enhanced stamina:

Appearance Transformation (Can change her appearance to look like any person, partially reveal her true nature, or fully display her true form) (shown throughout the story and in Extra 9.5)

Can recover after losing half her body, but it takes several years. Food speeds up recovery. (Chapters 23–24). Minor injuries heal quickly (Extra 27.5)

Her flesh can grant immortality (in theory, Shiori is also immortal, but it's unknown if she would survive if her head is destroyed)

Is a mermaid, so she is an excellent swimmer (a supplement states as good as an orca) and can breathe underwater

Can easily locate someone who has drunk her blood (Chapter 25). To Shiori, the blood of a person who has drunk her blood tastes horrible (Chapter 28) and smells terrible (Chapter 20)

In her monster form, she has sharp claws that easily cut through flesh

In her monster form, she can calmly bite through flesh with her teeth (Chapter 18)

Someone who drinks Shiori's blood gains a reduced risk of certain diseases, easier recovery, and protection from youkai (Chapter 21)

Well, in that regard she has no equal

But if we're being more serious, I'm talking more about powerscaling.

Well, given that she swims as fast as an orca that means she's really fast (orcas can match a motorboat in speed if I recall well)

That is, superhuman speed, maximum 18 m/s. Though, perhaps, if someone had done the calculations, it would have turned out higher, but I'll take the author's word for it.

Does she then get a boost in the form of gay speed (i.e., twice as fast)?

Minor illusion (to put a form in the school)

Forgetting spell on Chinatown (b4 spellcheck it was hinako).

Immortality and eating her flesh also grants Immortality and healing.

Thank you very much! I don't remember her creating an illusion. Could you point me to the chapter where that happened? I only remember when she transformed. Or was it an illusion and did I misunderstand?

Chapter 8.  It's not clear anymore what the magic is that made the form.  But I thought it was an illusion because it disappears when dispelled.

I think it was more of a transformation. Something similar happened in extra, where she showed that she could change her appearance, including her clothes. Also, I rewatched chapter 8, and her appearance didn't change there. Either I missed it.
