Resistance to Radiation Manipulation, Biological Manipulation, and Madness Manipulation:

-Bronze’s severed body parts leak a radiation that will mutate others’ bodies and drive them insane, with these effects growing more potent the larger the part is
-Remained completely unaffected despite prolonged exposure to the radiation from Bronze’s leg
Fighting Styles:
Judo:
-A Japanese martial art that focuses on throwing opponents, immobilizing them with pins, or forcing them to submit with joint locks and chokes
Kendo:
-A Japanese form of fencing that uses two-handed swords to deliver strikes that target specific parts of the wrists, head, or body; as well as thrusts
-Focuses on creating openings when opponents attack, striking when they create openings, and delivering counterattacks after responding to or avoiding opposing strikes

-Slightly cocky and overconfident in her abilities
-Excluding the Black Demons, her weapons have limited ammo, though she carries extra just in case

Optional Equipment:
-The EDS has limited mobility on land

-It can also instill a murderous greed in those nearby, which they will eventually act on if she doesn’t use her charisma on them
-Has never used the Chirugai in combat, as she’s only seen using it briefly during Angel of Darkness’ ending
-If a target’s willpower is strong enough, they can resist the control lens’ effects, be completely immune to it, or even turn it on the user
-Though the Silver Shield renders its user invulnerable, it doesn’t protect them from the force of an attack, as they can still be staggered by explosives or brute force
-The Silver Shield can only be used once before dissolving
-The Silver Shield can be disrupted if a piece of Bronze touches it, and if the piece is large enough, the Shield will implode, teleporting its user to Bronze and Silver’s home world

-The only exception to this is the Chirugai, which she has no experience using
