Spirit Albarn

Name: Spirit Albarn Age: 31

Occupations: Substitute Teacher at Death Weapon Meister Academy (DWMA), Death Scythe working for headmaster Lord Death

Appearance: : Spirit appears as a somewhat younger aged man, his facial features consist of red shoulder length hair and green eyes. He wears a basic black suit blazer, black dress slacks, an olive green button down shirt in which remains tucked in, black leather belt with a silver buckle and dress shoes. The most iconic element of his clothing is his signature black cross tie; also, on the collar of his button down, there are two black crosses on each side. Spirit has no facial hair.

Personality: Spirit is casually silly and youthfully influenced in his personal life along with in circumstances that require no seriousness. He's known for his flaw of being a womanizer, finding entertainment in being surrounded by women. Despite expressing regrets for cheating on his now ex-wife and claiming to love her still, some like his daughter Maka find this difficult to believe due to his repeated actions regardless of his apparent guilt. Spirit's actions are likely not helped by his drinking.

Perhaps his most redeeming quality, however, is the fact that Spirit is also a truly caring and passionate parent, longing for the love and acceptance of his daughter, even prior to cheating on his wife. Because of this, he has been shown to continuously support her, even when she denies it. In addition, he holds a firm view on the love of a parent, being even so sensitive to it that he was willing to transform out of his weapon form and grab hold of Medusa Gorgon's collar, despite the danger, to tell her his disgust, though he was reduced to tears and unable to say what he wanted to say in the first place. It is therefore evident that, though his attempts to do so are seen as questionable and humiliating by others (such as Dr. Stein, when Spirit sent his daughter 'positive energy' through ritualistic movements), Spirit actively tries to be a good father to Maka.

In certain situations, he can be serious. He loves his job and holds his position as a Death Scythe to a high degree. He feared the loss of it after the resurrection of Asura, feeling that it was his fault the Kishin escaped due to him leaving the side of his then-current Meister, Death. He also has a sense of understanding for the young students in the academy, a trait that even Franken Stein was unable to completely understand himself. He's also compassionate and merciful, supporting Sid Barrett's decision of sparing Black☆Star despite Stein's reluctance. He also has showcase wisdom, chastising fellow colleagues Alexandre and Zubaidah for wanting to sacrifice their lives, urging them to continue to fight to live until the moment they die and was willing to sacrifice his own life for his daughter's sake.

Strength: Spirit's weapon form possesses tremendous destructive power and is considered unparalleled in power (in comparison to other demon weapons). This destructive power was enough to piece through Crona's black blood and Spirit's main strength lies in his ability to manipulate and amplify his meister's wavelength

Backstory: During Maka's younger childhood years, Spirit would often read picture books to Maka (the origin point for her passion for reading) and maintained a close relationship with his daughter. However, his relationships with both Maka and his wife became strained after he was caught having extramartial affairs with other women. Eventually, this caused his wife to file for divorce and sought custody with Maka. In turn, Maka became disgusted with her father for his treatment of her mother, resisting any attempt to reconcile their relationship from Spirit, becoming a constant source of sadness for Spirit.

Friends: Despite ending his meister/weapon partnership with Dr.Stein, he's still one of the few friends that Spirit has on the DWMA Faculty.
