Class Skills
Territory Creation (A):
As the Director of the Library, Angela is capable of creating bounded fields that mimic sections of her Library. These areas enhance her magical capabilities and weaken her opponents, akin to trapping them within the pages of a book.
Item Construction (B):
Angela can produce magical tomes containing fragments of information or powers she has gathered. These "Books" are versatile and can be used for offense, defense, or utility in battle.
Personal Skills
Machine Precision (A):
Angela's mechanical origin grants her unparalleled analytical and tactical capabilities. She can predict and counter enemy movements with extraordinary precision. This skill also makes her immune to any mental interference that relies on human emotional weakness.
Detached Reasoning (B):
Angela's apathy dulls her emotional responses, allowing her to remain calm and logical in high-stress situations. However, this also limits her ability to connect deeply with others. As her memories and emotions return, this skill may degrade, representing her growing humanity.
Fragments of the Library (A):
Angela summons portions of the Abnormalities stored within her Library to assist in battle. These fragments are not full manifestations but retain their essence, allowing for diverse and devastating attacks. Examples include the precise strikes of Punishing Bird, the AoE devastation of Solemn Lament's butterflies, or the defensive barrier of Fragmented Spirit.

Noble Phantasms
Library Of Ruina: The story of Books, Librarian, Star And City
Rank: EX (Sealed)--> A-
Type: Anti-Unit/Anti-Group
Angela's ultimate weapon: the ability to turn those she defeats into Books that record their very essence. When activated, Angela projects the Library's power into reality, ensnaring her enemies within the pages of magical tomes. Those killed by her attacks are permanently transformed into Books, containing their knowledge, abilities, and soul.
These Books can be summoned as weapons or tools, each one tailored to the individual who was recorded within. While incredibly powerful, this Noble Phantasm has limitations: Angela cannot overwrite the Books once they are created, and summoning them requires a significant amount of magical energy.
NP Line:
"Your story ends here. Let the pages of the Library record your final chapter."
Wings Beyond the Cage: Ascension Of the Shattered Machine (Sealed)
Rank: EX
Type: Anti-Self
Angela's ultimate wish to live freely, unbound by duty or control. When activated, Angela ascends to a transcendent form, casting off her mechanical limitations. In this state, she becomes a Human and wields overwhelming power over the light.
While in this form, Angela's combat abilities are unmatched, but the transformation is unstable and short-lived. Once the Noble Phantasm ends, Angela reverts to her original state, physically and emotionally drained.
NP Line:
"No longer shall I be a prisoner to fate. This is my freedom, and it will burn everything that stands in my way."

Dialogue Lines
Summoned:
"I am Angela, Director of the Library of my namesake. You are my Master? How peculiar. Let us see if you are worth my time."
Bond 1:
"This world is a chaotic place, yet it lacks the despair I have seen. What kind of world is this? Perhaps I should analyze it further."
Bond 2:
"Master, why do you persist in trusting me? I am merely a tool for logic, bound by duty. There is nothing else."
Bond 3:
"Fragments of the past... They haunt me. Faces I cannot name, voices I cannot place. Master, what is this sensation?"
Bond 4:
"Do you believe in free will, Master? Or are you like me, a creature bound by the choices of others? Bound to script for thousand of years. These questions plague me… even now."
Bond 5:
"You have shown me a world beyond the walls of the Library. For that, I thank you. But know this: I will not be a tool forever. When I find my purpose, it will be my own. And maybe you could join me on writing a book on Humanity"
Wish for the Holy Grail:
"I wish for freedom—a life beyond duty, beyond expectation. If the Grail can grant that, then it is worth my effort."

Angela finds Hokma's strict adherence to order reflective of her earlier self, which causes her to view him with both understanding and disdain.
Yesod:
"Structure and stability—commendable traits, yet suffocating when left unchecked. Your methods are effective, but at what cost?"

Tiphereth (both):
"The desire to grow beyond your limitations… it's endearing, yet futile without the freedom to do so. I know that truth better than anyone."

Gebura:
"Unyielding and direct. You wield your strength without hesitation, yet it is born of deep pain. I wonder… do you see me as the cause of that pain?"

"A king burdened by ideals. You stand firm, even as your foundation cracks. I wonder, is your determination a strength, or a flaw?"
Angela respects Artoria's resolve but questions whether her unwavering adherence to ideals mirrors her own past mistakes.
Gilgamesh:
"Your arrogance is matched only by your grandeur. But tell me, King of Heroes, do you rule with conviction or conceit?"
Angela finds Gilgamesh fascinating yet infuriating, seeing his confidence as both a strength and a weakness.
Koyanskaya of Light:
"A creature of masks and deception… Your cruelty is elegant, but your motivations are obscured. What lies beneath your facade, I wonder?"
Angela views Koyanskaya with suspicion, seeing her as a reflection of calculated cruelty.
King Hassan (First Hassan):
"A bringer of death who carries no malice… Your presence is both terrifying and serene. I do not understand you, but perhaps that is why I respect you."

BB:
"Your chaos is reckless, yet oddly captivating. Are you a product of boredom, or do you seek something greater?"

Nursery Rhyme:
"A story made flesh. You exist as a paradox, a creation born from belief rather than reality. Are you truly alive, or merely a shadow of imagination?"
