Dark CloudWhelp, considering that the scale of potential conflict is someone/thing potentially Anti-Spiral-adjacent maybe-possibly tossing moons/planets at us... and that @Dead Cruiser described what we should be making as (and I quote): both "the most powerful champion that ever lived. Full stop" and "anime protagonist in the last fight in the last episode with the OP playing behind them."
That's pretty much what I did. XD
Name: Chinami Nadakai
Inheritor: Black Soul/Perceiver
Race: Human
Homeworld: Earth Delta
Culture: United States of America
Powers/Abilities:
In summary: A cosmic powerhouse weighed down by her own slowly recovering moral compass. She seeks a quiet civilian life. Yet, her brutal means and seeming inability to ignore her own bleeding heart have often driven her into a corner from which she cannot recover what she once had. Her latest fumble, during which she achieved her true potential, came at the cost of her secret identity and knowledge of her dangerous power becoming public on a worldwide scale. Unable to ever find peace on her homeworld without crossing several of her true moral lines, she sought out means to find a new home... Only for something to go wrong. Now, she finds herself among peers and forced to butt heads with cosmic beings beyond anything she'd have before imagined. Only time will tell if she can find a place among this band of fellow misfits and outcasts... and truly obtain her ever-coveted quiet life.
In terms of party role, she would likely act as a "Big Stick"/"Superman"/"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" of the group, someone with way too much power on their hands and a reluctance to use it. But spur her into motion, and great things tend to happen. Most often, she is likely to play the role of a healer when she isn't up to not holding back.

Name: Chinami Nadakai
Inheritor: Black Soul/Perceiver
Race: Human
Homeworld: Earth Delta
Culture: United States of America
A goth teenage girl of seeming Japanese ethnicity, appearing to be of age 16-17; though, her existence as a reincarnate puts her actual age somewhere in the forties, not that she's eager to expound upon it. Standing at a fair height of 5'8", she is perhaps most notable for how almost lackluster her "goth" is compared to others.
Gaining her powers caused a permanent change in appearance. Though she has never discovered quite why, it is the reason she is "stuck" as a goth, having blackened her finger/toe-nails, lips and hair to a pitch that almost seems to eat the light under natural darkness... while turning her eyes a vibrant crimson red. As a result, she chose to somewhat dress the part, ironically in order to make herself stand out less.

As a result, she chose to somewhat dress the part, ironically in order to make herself stand out less.
Blunt and straight-forward, Chinami despises the societal rot that is the pervasive concept of lying. White lies, little lies, small lies, lies to one's face, all are equally contemptable to her. While she herself may choose to word her statements misleadingly or omit information in a manner that may deceive, she is never one to directly lie to others, instead remaining silent if she must. She is a sardonic voice of (what she believes) to be basic common sense that is steered by her desire for long-lasting victory and peace.
She is a subconsciously power-hungry person. It is for this reason that she actively fears herself and her own potential and, yet, cannot seem to stop herself from grasping every further morsel of power presented to her given the slightest excuse. This is rooted in her obsession with having control of her own life and Fate and not allowing greater cosmic beings to dictate her future. It is this existential dread that drives her to never refuse more power... and yet simultaneously fear gaining more. After all, the more power she gains, the more likely she believes that she will become a tyrant or, worse... come to the attention of beings as far above her as she is the common man.
Chinami loves using her powers, the feeling of absolute control they give her filling her with giddy glee. At the same time, she hates using them, seeing every moment she is forced to as another moment of temptation to reach for more. It is for this reason that she seeks to carve out for herself a quiet civilian life. At the end of the day, she has no true grand goals or aspirations of domination. Instead, she would much rather live out a life surrounded by books and videogames holed up in her room. Unfortunately, her own spurts of recklessness tend to put her in situations that rapidly spiral into unraveling her quiet life.
Despite her often near-nihilistic outlook, Chinami often finds herself acting to help the innocent out of a sense of subconscious good will. She is a former Christian, who after being isekaied upon death lost faith and became fatalistic, stuck in a grim-dark deconstruction of a super-hero world. Despite trying to distance herself from such things, however, she has never been able to shake her innate core of goodness buried within a cracked and blackened heart. Despite her best efforts, she feels pity and empathy for the innocent and suffering and will certainly protect them if doing so wouldn't inconvenience her overmuch. She subconsciously worries for the innocents around her and firmly believes they don't deserve to have the tyrant she might become inflicted upon them should she lose her way.
A person of a great many faults, she nonetheless owns up to them, referring to herself as a "Mythic Bitch" casually. She is often a proponent of "tough love" but seems to genuinely mean well in the end. She despises those that take hostages; however, she is absolutely willing to call their bluff to achieve victory, even if that means innocents will die. In large part, she does this in the hopes that it will set an example and ensure no one in the future attempts to use hostages against her.
In this same vein, she is utterly ruthless in the pursuit of absolute victory. She despises "reoccurring enemies" and will do everything in her power to kill the vast majority of her opponents unless given very good reason not to. This is all, of course, in pursuit of her long-awaited quiet civilian life in the hopes that she may either scare people into leaving her be or eliminate those too stupid or hateful to leave well enough alone.
At her core, Chinami believes that the most sacred thing in existence is Free Will, the congealed concept of "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness". She believes that no matter how despicable or holy, all have the right to make their own decisions... for good or bad. That said, she will still happily be the arbiter of karma upon those that commit unforgivable evils and/or would steal the free will of others or otherwise impose unfair limitations upon their options in life. Mass murderers, slavers and mind manipulators are her favored stress relief targets. It is fair to call her dislike for them something bordering on zealotry.

Reincarnated without warning or choice into a grim-dark deconstruction of a super-hero death-trap world by a sadistic "ROB", Chinami sought to spite the cosmic being by avoiding the "costumed nutter" scene and instead living out a quiet and hopefully boring (for the ROB) civilian life. In time, her mere paranoia developed into an all but obsession and personal cause to obtain this seemingly impossible glory, but time and again, she would fall prey to her own need to interfere with the horrible evils around her in a decisive and brutal manner. This earned her enemies and unwanted notoriety, even as she struggled to slink back into the background of the setting.
The long and short of it is that through a series of convoluted events (mostly fueled by several mistakes on Chinami's own part), she essentially created her own worst enemy, a former/current supervillain who saw Chinami as the devil incarnate and was willing to go to near any means to defeat/destroy her and "save" the Earth. Their final confrontation lead to both of them obtaining a power that caused them to continuously grow to exceed the threat the other presented, resulting in a self-sustaining spiral of growing power. By the time they begrudgingly decided to call it a draw so as to not "accidentally a country" or two, both were practically gods on earth compared to everyone around them.
In the end, however, Chinami found the draw to be nothing but a defeat and pyrrhic victory at best, as she had lost any way to retain her quiet civilian life due to the sheer scale of her epic battle. Distraught, she sought out means to leave her universe for one that had never heard of her, but something went wrong. Now, she finds herself among other obscenely powerful champions and forced to contend with cosmic foes that threaten not just her peace and quiet but potentially entire worlds.

Powers/Abilities:
The physical pseudo-spiritual manifestation of Chinami's absolute obsession with having control over her own life, gained in a moment of despair over being at the mercy of the whims of what she perceived as a "ROB" (Random Omnipotent Being/Bastard)... and the encounter with a dangerous supernatural virus.
At its core, it is a power gained by being infected with strange spiritual virus, a virus which is non-transmissible and can only be contracted by making contact with its pure form. In such a case the subject will die unless they prove to have a certain strength of character, a conviction to bend the world to their own will. It is a virus that at its core, culls anything and anyone it perceives as weak. Upon surviving it, the victim is "rewarded" by the awakening of their Spirit, an often vague manifestation of their innermost self. Once death or "worthiness" has been determined, the virus dissipates from the body, unable to be extracted or otherwise analyzed.
The power typically manifests as a humanoid being that can move a variable distance from the owner and selectively interact with the world... while possessing a personalized power that is typically modeled after some prominent portion of the owner's personality. These "Spirits" cannot be harmed by any force except another Spirit and are typically invisible except to those with high spiritual awareness.
Chinami, in particular, is a person who firmly believes that she will never have to change for the world... and that the world must, instead, be made to change for her. Her power thus manifested as such.
A pearly-white & electric-blue humanoid being of almost robotic appearance decorated with celestial imagery, Living on a Prayer (as Chinami chose to name it) can only move up to 5 meters (about 15 feet) from Chinami in any given direction. It is fast enough that it solidly surpasses lightspeed, but Chinami has no clue exactly how much so. Strength-wise, it is less obnoxiously impressive, but still strong enough to send an Iowa-class battleship tumbling ass over teakettle with a casual shove or to annihilate entire city blocks with a single punch. The Spirit has a reaction speed as ridiculous as its actual speed and greatly heightened versions of the five basic senses.
Chinami is able to simultaneously perceive the world through her own and her Spirit's senses and, thus, is quite difficult to catch off guard. The Spirit can also interact with the world in a selectively tangible way, reaching inside an object/creature and grabbing hold of something. As a result, she can also overlay her Spirit over her own body, physically enhancing herself to levels greatly inferior to the Spirit's true potential; the tradeoff, however, is that she may benefit from the practically conceptual durability of her Spirit in turn, using it as an utterly inviolable armor.
Its primary power, however, is the ability to copy and paste an alternate version of a target object or living being onto the local universe version. The ability essentially browses the multiverse and then imposes a new version upon the target. With this power, Chinami can instantaneously heal and harm, grant new powers to others or wrest what they already have away. It's flexible enough that she can even impose alternate locations on a target, effectively allowing teleportation. Her power will only specifically impose the changes she desires and otherwise defaults to the condition of "otherwise unchanged" on any given target, unless Chinami specifies otherwise.
While she is capable of effecting minds and memories with this ability, it actually happens to be a firm line in the sand that she will absolutely not cross for any reason, considering how sacred she holds free will.
The changes are permanent or temporary at Chinami's discretion.
The main caveat to this ability is that the Spirit must make physical contact with a target they mean to change, and her relatively short range can quickly become an issue, especially if she is currently being forced to shield herself with her Spirit as makeshift armor. The final weakness is that the more esoteric a change -and the further she reaches for an alternate that diverges greatly from the local universe's current version of a target- the less instantaneous her ability can activate. This means that when faced with beings of a cosmic or conceptual nature, she can have incredible difficulty effecting them faster than they can get away... if at all.
In theory, she could use her power on herself to gradually strip away and mitigate all these weaknesses, but Chinami has long held these sorts of "natural" limits to her ability as something she must retain in order to not lose her humanity entirely.

The flexibility of her Spirit's power is vast. As such, despite her fear of losing herself to too much power, Chinami fears death and the compromising of her metal facilities far more and runs several permanent "enchantments" on herself that she never removes for any reason.
1): Mind/Body/Soul Manipulation/Control Immunity: Her mind, soul and memories are a titanium fortress, unable to be read or invaded. Her body cannot be altered in any manner against her will. This has an additional self-precognitive caveat of pre-emptively blocking any effect that Chinami is otherwise unaware would be harmful to her.
2): Power Manipulation Immunity: A multifaceted protection that prevents anyone or anything but herself from altering, downgrading, or even improving any aspect of her powers and personal "enchantments".
3): Precognition/Postcognition/Clairvoyance Immunity: Affects both the magical/spiritual and technological spheres. Chinami is unable to be "scryed" by any force or means. This includes a defense that even prevents someone from working around her ability and modeling a "theoretical" exact copy of a being with her exact abilities in order to scry her by proxy.
4): Erasure/Death/Time Immunity: Encompasses any effect that would annihilate her on a conceptual level, instantly kill her or age her unnaturally. This will cause her to stop aging entirely once she reaches about 25 physical years of age. She also is unaffected by the likes of Time Stopping or Slowing effects.
5): Survival Suite: Chinami does not need air to breathe or speak legibly, nor does she require food or water to survive and grow healthily. She is immune to outside pathogens/germs/viruses/poisons entirely and is unaffected by extreme temperatures. In terms of personal durability, she prefers not to enhance her own body, but her soul can remain manifested indefinitely in the mortal realm if her physical form perishes, allowing her to use her Spirit to repair/reconstitute her body so she can repossess it.

-Immortality (Age): As a result of one of her "enchantments", she will never perish from old age and will cease to age once she reaches the prime of her life.
-Intellect: While she personally doesn't consider herself clever, a certain amount of above-average creativity is required to use her Spirit's ability to its maximum potential. However, this creativity is often stifled by her own self-imposed moral limits.
-Additional Language: Japanese. Her parents were immigrants from Japan and taught her their original language.
-Martial Arts: She loves the Tae-Kwon-Do Art but hasn't had the time to truly master it. On the surface, she is a multi-level black belt and skilled at what she does, but she cannot compare to true supernatural masters of the craft. Luckily, her Spirit's sheer speed and strength allow her to compensate where she lacks in experience.
-Willpower/Pain Tolerance: Her ability to fight through any agony or injury, no matter how lethal or painful, is literally a manifestation of her sheer willpower. It is entirely natural, not that many would believe it, but considering that she is stubborn enough to spend a decade and a half dedicated almost entirely to trying to spite a being to which she was essentially an ant...?
