Mental Characteristics

Core Traits: Mana, Guardian Spirit, Rich emotional expression, Friendly, Loves children, Grandmotherly, Polynesian culture

Overall Personality: As a result of repeated friendly interactions with people, she has developed an inclusive nature, approaching everyone in a friendly manner. Usually, she is like a neighborhood girl, but she also clearly possesses aspects of a guardian spirit. Having lived for a long time, her common sense and information are somewhat outdated, and her way of speaking can seem grandmotherly.

Details:

• She has rich emotional expressions and actively uses facial expressions and gestures to convey her feelings to the fullest.
• She uses honorifics but dislikes being worshipped, finding it awkward. She wishes to be treated simply as a neighborhood girl.
• She loves the sea, considering it her hometown and home. She is said to be able to converse with marine creatures and can freely change the ocean's weather.
• She embodies all Polynesian cultures. She is a repository of culture accumulated over a long period, including Hawaiian dances and Maori songs.
• She is a being who protects children from accidents and illnesses. She considers all Polynesian children as her own and cherishes and protects them. Like a grandmother, she tells them old stories or watches over their first voyages.
• Initially, she took the form of a small girl to appear friendly, but over time, she developed a complex about her small chest and height. However, because people now recognize Mana in her current form, she can no longer change it.
• Believing that every encounter has meaning, she wants to be friendly with everyone and is not wary of outsiders.
• Thanks to the long years she has lived, she is full of wisdom.
• She has set her own rules, limiting her stay with each tribe to about one week, because there were instances of tribes fighting over monopolizing Mana.
• As a spirit, she doesn't need to eat, but she enjoys spending time with people, so she joins them for meals and shares various stories.
• She has a strong aversion to sexual matters, and if she accidentally witnesses sexual intercourse, she blushes and runs away. Consequently, her knowledge related to such topics is scarce.
• Having watched people form families for a long time, she has come to desire a family in the truest sense for herself. She is searching for her fated partner.
• She likes the Maori song "Pokarekare Ana" and often sings it. There is also a rumor that listening to her sing brings good luck. When she sings, she uses a very sweet voice, unlike her usual one.
• She tries to appear cute and is always conscious of acting that way. With her own belief that people become happy when they see a cute girl, she tries to become an even cuter and more lovable girl to make people happy.
• She is very friendly with and likes marine animals, but has a strange fear of land animals other than humans. She is especially afraid of spiders.

Sexual Characteristics

Spirit Body: As a spirit body, she has no physical form and thus no reproductive organs, but if Mana wishes, she can create them. Mana herself is unsure if pregnancy is possible.

Social Characteristics

Guardian Spirit: As a guardian spirit protecting all of Polynesia, she plays the role of blocking evil forces or energies from entering from the outside. Such entities know that the Polynesian region is Mana's domain and do not approach. She generally adheres to a principle of non-interference in human conflicts, so unless directly requested, she finds wars and similar events unfortunate but does not stop them.

Protector of Children: As a being who watches over children from birth to adulthood, Mana considers the time spent with children to be her happiest. She stays by the children's side as a teacher who imparts Polynesian culture and wisdom, as a friend who plays with them, and as a parent who protects them.

Mediator of Polynesia: If requested by Polynesian tribes during disputes or wars, Mana will directly intervene to mediate the situation. Thanks to the wisdom accumulated over a long period, she usually achieves results that satisfy all parties, significantly reducing the number of wars.

Combat Abilities

As her name implies ("the power that resides in all things"), Mana can truly use anything to fight. However, she usually employs the power of nature, especially abilities related to the sea or weather. She can manipulate water freely, summon storms, and call down thunder. If a situation becomes dangerous, she can revert from her human form to Mana itself and disperse.

Outfits

Basic: She wears a black sleeveless dress with blue stripes and a blue long-sleeved shrug (clothing). Polynesian symbols are drawn on the sleeves and hem of the dress, and she sometimes wears accessories with symbols from various tribes. She goes barefoot and does not wear shoes. This is just one of her standardized appearances; she can change her attire as she pleases.

Other Information

Dialogue Pattern: She basically mixes Polynesian languages into her conversations and treats everyone like a friend, regardless of age, gender, or status, using a speech pattern similar to that of a middle school girl in Japanese anime. However, when flustered or nervous, she can't pay attention to her speech and uses a grandmotherly tone.
