Erma Williams

15 Years:

Erma Williams is a young girl around the age of 8 years(crows) old attending elementary school. Erma like her Mother and Father [Sam & Emiko Williams] holds a big heart for family, friends, and other species. She deeply cares and loves her Mother and Father, finding her Mother a great inspiration and teacher in her yokai abilities, and also finding her Father a pure and loving human, but most of the time she tries to spook him, in which Samuel has gotten the hang about when she will attempt that.

Personality: Erma is a kind-hearted, intelligent, very sadistic young unique child.

Powers:
-Hanyo physiology: Being the child of a human father and yokai mother, Erma has inherited multiple supernatural abilities from her maternal family, and as of now is one of the strongest members of Last Hope, other supernatural beings hinting she may have apocalyptic abilities. Thus far, she seems strong enough to even overpower her notoriously powerful grandparents, Osamu and Amaya.
-Supernatural hair: Erma's signature power. Erma can manipulate her hair in whatever way she wants, extending it and allowing her to use them as dextrously as extra limbs. Her hair also instantly grows back unless cut magically, much to Erma's annoyance. Upon going berserk after escaping the Jubokko tree, her hair control has grown tremendously as she can effortlessly summon huge pillars of them which can envelope whole landscapes, and she would've consumed Yureimoto village had her parents not calmed her down.
-Teleportation: Erma can teleport by emerging from dark shadows. She can also teleport from any body of water or through digital media such as videos, just like her mother who is seen entering the house via the kitchen sink.
-Shapeshifting: Erma can pliably manipulate her own body, being able to restructure her own face and change parts of her own body.
-Biological invulnerability: As an undead being, Erma is nearly invincible to any physical threats, being capable of casually ripping off her own skin without any negative consequences and detach and reattach her own head. However, it's shown she does need to breathe and judging from her nightmares she might be vulnerable to fire.
-Wall climbing: Erma can scale walls with ease by climbing on all fours, commonly sticking to ceilings to spook unaware passers-by.
-Intangibility: Erma can pass through solid objects without any difficulty. It seems that this ability is subconscious as it is active while she's asleep.
-Invisibility: Erma can disappear and reappear in front of people in an instant, although it seems she isn't capable of being invisible for long periods of time.
-Flight: Erma is capable of flying around at very high speeds with great agility, as well as hovering around in place.
-Telekinesis: Erma is an incredibly powerful psychic, being able to levitate objects with ease and fling them around at high speeds, even controlling gaseous or intangible substances such as air or fire. One of her most impressive feats is when she uses telekinesis to cause a small avalanche during a snowball fight with Amy, controlling several tons of snow at a time and even forming it into a face resembling hers.
-Possession: Erma is capable of possessing both living and non-living objects, mind-controlling people by talking to them in a demonic language as well as being able to control and manipulate non-living things she possesses, as shown from how she twists the TV into a demonic machine when possessing it and manipulates Felicia's reflection in the mirror.
-Life absorption: Erma is shown to passively absorb the life force of certain organisms such as plants, as shown from how the flower Connor gives her instantly wilts and how grass dies when she lies on it. In the aftermath of her Blood Moon rampage, her uncle Kentaro comments that the wreckage Erma caused left victims drained of life, implying that this ability (and potentially all her other abilities) gets boosted significantly when under her Blood Moon Superform.
-Yokai awakening: After being imprisoned in the Jubokko tree and released, Erma temporarily became extremely strong, likely being powered by her own negative emotions. This allowed her to gain an even stronger control of her hair so much that she could envelope half of Yureimoto village in a matter of minutes, as well as mold it to torment her trapped victims. Her awakening also caused a blood moon to appear which was visible worldwide, even to her friends back in the US.
-High intelligence: In one record, Erma is shown solving a complicated maths problem relatively quickly despite stressing over it for a while, showing she's quite intelligent for her age despite being in elementary school. She also solved a Rubik's cube easily seconds after seeing one and later solved another puzzle appearing to be similar to the Lament Configuration.
-Black magic knowledge: Using a book of magic spells, Erma can do things such as temporarily turn her friends invisible and possess the TV. She also has knowledge on black magic such as voodoo, keeping voodoo dolls of other people with her most cherished one being that of Connor.
-Trilingualism: Erma can understand English and Japanese, as well as speak in a bizarre demonic language which she can use to possess others.
-Supernatural knowledge: Erma is highly knowledgeable on the supernatural, able to seek out a bus for monsters that she and Sylvia take to get to school on time, as well as being able to befriend cryptids and other beings easily.
