Stein and Medusa ✧+‧ ̊⁀➷

Name= " ((Stein)) "

Age= "((28))"

Gender= " ((Male)) "

Personality= " ((*Typically, Stein is a hedonistic scientist whose greatest pleasure is dissection and observation, which persisted from childhood to adulthood. Due to this, Stein claims sees everything in the world (himself included), as an experiment. He developed sadistic tendencies (due to his sensitivity to madness), has a high intelligence, and a driven personality. His sadistic tendies can be seen during his battle against Maka and Black☆Star during the remedial lessons, in which he grabbed Maka by one of her pigtails, lifted her shirt up and drew marks on her body to signify where he would vivisect her and ponders if he should turn her skin into sand paper. Seeing as he was acting then and deliberately playing up his "mad doctor" persona for the sake of the lesson though, it's likely he didn't really mean it. He has shown a tendency to enjoy messing with his students, however. When Black☆Star tried to attack him in the same battle, he countered by knocking him out with his soul wavelength in a painful manner that caused Black☆Star to scream and convulse as though he were being electrocuted. His smiles typically are also full of sadism and serve to highlight the latent madness inside of him.

During his childhood and adolescence, he had a tendency to want to dissect everything. He was stopped by his first weapon partner, Spirit Albarn. He was shown to have little empathy even towards his friend/partner, having no qualms about secretly experimenting on Spirit's body. This eventually led to the decade-long dissolvement of their meister/weapon partnership after only five years.

Emotionally, Naigus has claimed Stein is a loner and has no love within him, a notion he himself affirms as he once admitted that he can't understand Spirit's reaction to Maka asking him to go out shopping. Despite this, Stein has shown the ability to genuinely love and care for others, eventually mending his bond with Spirit.* )) "

Appearance= " ((*Stein appears to be a lean but muscular male with silver-gray hair, large round glasses, and a handsome face according to some of his female students. He is likely in his late twenties or early thirties, seeing as he appears to be close in age to Spirit but is still a little bit younger than him. Stein's most notable trait is the large screw going through his head. He often turns this screw, as a means to focus his thoughts or as he prepares to attack an opponent.

Another notable detail about Stein's body, as well as his clothes, are the zig-zag stitches he has on both of them. He has stitches all over his body indicating experimentation on himself, and stitches all over his clothing. Even his house/lab is shown to be covered in stitches. His most notable piece of clothing is his white lab coat. He has a turtleneck shirt underneath that has a two different shades of gray patterns. The shirt also has zig-zag stitches.* )) "

Name= " ((Medusa Gorgon)) "

Gender= " ((Female)) "

Age= " ((over 800)) "

Personality= " ((When acting as DWMA's nurse, Medusa presents herself as a caring and supportive member of the staff, even to the point of comforting Maka Albarn when she displayed her insecurities as a meister and showing "concern" for other students within the academy such as Soul Eater. She was known throughout the academy for being a kind faculty member who not only treated students but also counseled them.

However, as Franken Stein pointed out, Medusa herself is "full of lies" and in actuality cares little for anyone but seemingly herself. Being a scientist, she also tends to views things like a researcher to the point of using actual individuals such as her own child, for experiments. In addition, she can be viewed as irredeemable, willing to manipulate anyone for her goals and even abandon her own child after deeming them a "failure". Perhaps Medusa's greatest strengths, however, are her cunning and intellect. Often enough, she forms complex plans that even the DWMA at times fails to counter and tends to learn from her own mistakes. She even feels blasphemy is part of the nature of being a Witch.

However, despite these dark and manipulative traits, even Medusa can possess some love, admitting to Dr. Stein that she does have genuine feelings for him and with Arachne even confirming this notion. However, as Stein even pointed out, she most likely has an inability to truly understand the concept of love. When subjected to Tezca Tlipoca's Reflect (despite not even being the intended target), it also is revealed that even Medusa herself, to some unknown degree, is aware of her treatment to Crona and even harbors some amount of guilt. Medusa herself isn't infallible to even being subject to other emotions such as nervousness to the point of actually fidgeting, seen when she was going to meet Death face-to-face for the first time.

Oddly enough, despite her own horrendous actions and rather odd tendencies (going barefoot and the way she expresses love) she find the antics of the DWMA upper brass utterly absurd, and impossible to manage. This is demonstrated during her time in Rachel's body when she got fed up with Death and Spirit, and later during her fight with Justin Law and Tezca Tlipoca.)) "

Appearance= " ((While she wears various outfits over the course of the series, the most notable and common of these is a black body-length suit with hood, which extends downwards to her knees. The hood itself is adorned with an eye-like marking upon either side which, interestingly, when worn in addition to the shape of her hair, gives it the appearance of a snake's mouth, with teeth and fangs. It is notable that she is barefoot when not in disguise with unique toenail and fingernail polish that is black featuring yellow arrows pointing upwards.

After the revival of the Kishin Asura and her defeat by Stein and Spirit, she was forced to take possession of a young child's body. This gave her the same build and frame of the child, while still retaining the majority of her original form's appearance. However, the body did have some practicalities, as she found it particularly useful in deceiving many people. Medusa still attires herself with the usual hoodie but this one has two snake-like extensions that are attached at the neck. Also, like her adult form, she prefers to be barefooted. There is also an apparent white snake head motif on its front. Also, rather than a bodysuit, Medusa sports a knee-length dress, and, unlike her adult form, does not wear nail polish. There is also the absence of the snake tattoos on her arms.

Seeing the opportunity after Arachne's defeat by Maka during the capture of Baba Yaga's Castle, Medusa leaves her previous victim and transfers herself to the empty shell of Arachne's body. This current possession shifts Medusa's appearance much closer to her original form but now bearing Arachne's black hair color arranged in Medusa's typical style. She chooses to also adopt her typical long hoodie preceding the transformation, with it now featuring an indistinct spider's web patterning surrounding the neck line. Medusa also has a nick on her left eyebrow originally. However, the nick vanishes when she possesses Rachel and Arachne.

Her soul also takes a snake-like theme, closely resembling the head of the Gorgon of Greek legend, Medusa. However, instead of snakes, it has the same vector arrows that are present within Medusa's spells. The soul features a purple color in addition.)) "
