===Control of Parahuman Shadows=== At any one time, she can have the parahumans she has ‘claimed’ manifest as ghostly specters, complete with the ability to physically affect the world and use their powers; she normally limits herself to two or three, but can maintain more than that at the cost of significantly reduced individual power.<ref name="Cast2">'''Glaistig Uaine''' – A cape that seems much younger than she is, Glaistig Uaine styles herself as a Faerie Queen, and claims that she collects the lesser faerie that grant other parahumans their powers. Whatever the true nature of her abilities, she can draw in the essence of recently dead parahumans she has come in contact with – or kill wounded or dying parahumans – and store it within herself. At any one time, she can have two or three of the parahumans she has ‘claimed’ manifest as ghostly spectres, complete with the ability to physically affect the world and use their powers. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/cast-spoiler-free/cast/ Cast Page (In-Depth)]</ref><ref name="I27">[[Interlude 27.x|27.x (Interlude, Eidolon)]]</ref><ref name="I16"/><ref name="27.3"/><ref name="30.2">[[Speck 30.2]]</ref><ref name="GleamingI9">[https://www.parahumans.net/2018/10/20/gleaming-interlude-9/ Gleaming, Interlude 9]</ref> They are seemingly limited to her immediate presence,<ref>If nothing else, Bakuda was a manageable inmate, now.

She claims the spirits of dead capes she comes in contact with and summons forth spectres with their powers. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/03/09/scourge-19-6/#comment-12181 Comment] by Wildbow on [[Scourge 19.6]]</ref><ref name="27.5">[[Extinction 27.5]]</ref> and she can create multiple copies of a ghost through a duplicator ghost. She made twenty to thirty copies of a ghost, and later created multiple copies of [[Gray Boy|Grey Boy]].<ref>Above us, Glaistig Uaine had created a spirit that was spreading across the sky like circuits on a circuitboard, extending itself across a plane. Scion was blasting it, but it had reached the point where it was spreading as fast as he destroyed it. Her other two spirits were working in concert, one duplicating the other, so it could create and lob projectiles that exploded in the air. The detonations left patches of a strange, nebulous darkness in their wake. They couldn’t move more than a short distance from their master, which limited their number, but they added up to twenty or thirty in all. ... Glaistig Uaine appeared behind him. Three spirits surrounded her. One to levitate, grant the ability to float. A telekinetic or power granter. Another to duplicate capes. Duplicating the telekinetic, in part. But more focused on duplicating the third spirit Glaistig Uaine had made. Gray Boys. - [[Extinction 27.5]]</ref> Capes she manifests appear as duplicates of their former selves with exaggerated, caricatured or blended features. Their powers are unaltered.<ref name="27.4"/><ref name="E.1"/> They slowly regenerated after being destroyed or injured in a fight.<ref name="E.1"/> They appear transparent and shadowy but otherwise solid<ref name="27.4"/> and can interact normally with the physical world;<ref name="Cast2"/> projections that are dismissed dissolve into smoke or shadow<ref name="E.1"/> or collapse into a point in her hand "like an explosion in reverse".<ref name="27.4"/> They were affected normally by gravity unless she levitated them with another power.<ref name="27.5">[[Extinction 27.5]]</ref> When they try to speak, their voices sound faint and incoherent to others, as if were emulating language rather than actually uttering it,<ref name="27.4"/> speaking in voices only Ciara can understand,<ref name="E.1"/> although later shadows are able to speak coherently enough to be understood by bystanders. Ciara can communicate with currently inactive spirits and is partially aware of their emotions and desires. The shadows maintain their original personality and some degree of agency, although it somewhat wears off with time in the same way as their appearance. The recently collected imprints are even able to defy Ciara's wishes, although she expects them to submit later.<ref>“I need you to tell me where the captives from the raids in Rome are being kept,” she said.<br><br>The shadow shook its head.<br><br>“Tell me what you know about the people who can create the triggering moments.”<br><br>She saw and felt the surprise.

Even when they are not visible, she still has three projections "active".<ref name="I16"/> [[File:Glaistig_uaine_by_cnjlc.jpg|thumb|left|320px|[http://www.deviantart.com/art/Glaistig-Uaine-414875555 illustration] by [http://cnjlc.deviantart.com/ CNJLC]]] By the end of [[Worm]], she has absorbed the powers of countless capes, including [[Eidolon]]. With Eidolon's ghost increasing the number of powers she can wield at once from three to five, and several more if Eidolon's powers are weakened by him using too many powers or Ciara summoning too many phantoms, she is now indisputably the most powerful parahuman in existence. Even before his death, Eidolon himself speculated that she had grown to surpass him in power. However, as of Ward, she seems reluctant to use Eidolon, stating his "battery is almost empty", and that recharging it would be "more trouble than it was worth". She was able to escape [[Khepri]]'s control by forcing her to control one of her spirits instead of herself, possibly using that spirit's power.<ref name ="30.6">[[Speck 30.6]]</ref><ref name="30.7">[[Speck 30.7]]</ref>
