Maika

Maika is a Paper Dancer girl who, like many other people, was drawn into the world of Arbatel by the magic of the Grimoire and is currently a first year student at the Grimoire High School. While Kimihito and his household girls were trying to discover Arbatel's true identity, Maika, due to her connection to books, was one of the three Liminal girls (alongside Aya and Shii-Mii) they suspected of being Arbatel in transformation, although this suspicion was ultimately proven wrong.

Appearance
Maika has the appearance of a teenage girl with slightly dark short hair. As a Paper Dancer, Maika has long, thin arms and legs that appear to be made of a paper-like material and no discernible feet. On her hands, she has three thin, papery fingers with no thumbs. Their eyes, pupils, and irises are square.

During her stay in the grimoire, Maika wears the usual school uniform, consisting of a seifuku with a plaid skirt. However, unlike most students, her seifuku was black.

Skills & Traits

 * Paper Dancer Physiology:
 * Paper control: As a Paper Dancer, Maika can control any kind of paper. The exact extent of this ability was not shown, but it is seen in Chapter 79, that Maika can levitate paper using telekinesis. She can also sense if something made of paper is nearby and what it is, such as a love letter.
 * Levitate: Due to her light body, Maika can levitate. However, this ability seems to have limitations, as while Maika can levitate at a height of one meter from the ground, this could not stop her falling out of the window, implying that she cannot levitate to grater heights. Alternatively, it is also possible that Maika was unable to react in time due to the sudden shock from the fall.

Zoological Classification


The Paper Dancer is a fairy-type Liminal that has a thin/light body constructed out of a paper-like material and the ability to telekinetically control any items made out of paper. Despite not having wings they posses the ability to float/glide. They do not seem to posses the power of flight, although legends claims they can use wind drafts to glide through the air in a manner similar to flight. Users of Onmyōdō Charms are known to form partnerships with Paper Dancers, although Paper Dancer are known as "Shikigami" in Onmyōdō culture.
