Ciara's powers are the result of receiving a crippled<ref>The entity altered each power he granted to give them certain restrictions.  No power would be able to truly affect him, no power would cross the boundaries he set in dimension, or in affecting other powers. - [[Venom 29.7]]</ref> [[shard]] from [[Scion]].<ref>“I’m not sure I follow,” I said.<br><br>“He doesn’t follow either,” Glaistig Uaine replied.  “Which complicates things.  We have two courts, but the other court arrived to the stage bedraggled, maddened, and they don’t have any instructions or forewarning, you understand?”<br><br>“I believe so,” I said.<br><br>''Trying to, anyways''.<br><br>“The high priest is in similar straits to these unfortunates.  He stands straight and bluffs through his lines, but he’s wearing the wrong costume and he’s arrived at the wrong time, just like the others.”<br><br>“And… what does ''he'' think of this?”<br><br>Glaistig Uaine shrugged.  “I couldn’t tell you.  But what would you think of it, in his shoes?  He’s set this in motion, and there’s no finale, there’s no promise of another play after this one is done.  The nobles of our court’s mighty faerie may have no role to play.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/08/22/extinction-27-4/ Excerpt] from [[Extinction 27.4]]</ref> She call her shard the [[List_of_Shards#Keeper_of_The_Dead|Keeper of the Dead]].<ref name="E.1 eWarring">Seeing the flickers in the crowd wasn’t helping.  She avoided them, making her way downstairs, into an adjoining structure.  Once upon a time, she’d used that other sight exclusively.  In this, in the here and now, she was warring with the keeper of the dead.  A part of why she felt incomplete, fragile.  They craved purpose.  It took a special kind of willpower to avoid using abilities altogether.  Some did, but they were rare.<br><br>Using her power meant killing, it meant being around the dead, immersing herself in the gravest kinds of conflict.<br><br>Would her experiment in humanity be so short lived? - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/11/02/teneral-e-1/ Excerpt] from [[Teneral e.1]]</ref><ref>They were all parts of a whole.  The Chirurgeon, the Maker, the Keeper of the Dead.  It only made sense that there would be synergies between such abilities.<br><br>A way to bring her dead back, perhaps? - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/11/02/teneral-e-1/ Excerpt] from [[Teneral e.1]]</ref> According to Ciara, her shard's duties are at the end of the [[cycle]], which explains why her shard is more patient and relaxed than the typical shard.<ref>“It’s the approach that makes sense.  The, er,” the girl stumbled uncharacteristically as she searched for a word, “''parahumans''… they tend towards conflict.”<br><br>“There is a lot of evidence to suggest that’s the case.  Do you?  Tend towards conflict?”<br><br>“No.  Which is a good thing, I imagine.  My other half was always more patient, more relaxed than most.  Its duty was always at the ''end''.  For those who had duties at the ''beginning'', it would be harder.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/11/02/teneral-e-1/ Excerpt] from [[Teneral e.1]]</ref> 

Behind the scenes, the [[List_of_Shards#Keeper_of_The_Dead|Keeper of the Dead]] utilizes the [[shard network]] to make her powers work. Whenever Ciara collects a cape, her [[shard]] co-opts their specific local network and makes it subordinate: it rips out an entire package and makes it a shadow that she can load/unload.<ref>Other cases of the network being in play include Teacher setting up his own temporary networks of a narrow niche of shard (thinker/tinker shards), or Glaistig Uaine co-opting other networks and making them subordinate (ripping out the entire package and making it a ghost she can load/unload). - Comment by Wildbow on Reddit</ref><!-- https://redd.it/nt15eg --> Clones of a collected cape can still reconnect with their specific local network, though (e.g., [[Gray Boy]]).<ref>The boy stepped out, and there was no sign of any difficulty.  He didn’t struggle as others had, nor have trouble finding his feet.  He was prepubescent, to look at him, older than ten but younger than fourteen.  His hair was neatly parted, and he wore a private school uniform, complete with glossy black shoes.  Dry.<br><br>''Even though he was naked in the tube''. - [[Interlude 25]]</ref>

Thanks to Ciara's [[second trigger]],<ref name="E.1 eSecondTrigger">“You miss my point,” Ciara said, clearly annoyed.<br><br>“No.  I got it.  Chronologically, you’re older, and by those measures, your youth is only a mask you wear.  By ''other'' measures, you’re still a child.  You triggered at a very young age, you were no doubt isolated, as masters tend to be.  No doubt surviving purely by your own methods.  Somewhere along the way, something happened.  You stole the wrong power, you fought someone and lost, or you found yourself in a bad situation.  In the course of that event or in the wake of it, you unlocked stronger powers, and they eclipsed you as a person.  Am I too far off track, here?”<br><br>Ciara didn’t respond.  Her hard stare was a challenging one, now, a ''hard'' stare. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/11/02/teneral-e-1/ Excerpt] from [[Teneral e.1]]</ref> her powers are relatively unbounded and are thus more leashed to the goodwill of her [[shard]] than others.<ref>Some powers are simply more leashed to shard goodwill than others. Often the case with breakers (Moord Nag's pet is breaker-ish) and the more unbounded powers such as Eidolon (who has a dead shard, for the record), Leet, Glaistig Uaine, and Panacea. People who were slated to fall pre-powers are set up to fall in a bad way.<br>[...]<br>Working with the passenger's wishes means the ongoing effects and the bounds that form around the unbounded effects as they take hold (success rates and accuracy, power, efficiency, collateral damage, etc) are more to the parahuman's wishes. - Comment by Wildbow on Reddit, archived on Spacebattles</ref><!-- https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/36173443 --> For example, when starting out as Valkyrie, she found herself warring with the [[List_of_Shards#Keeper_of_The_Dead|Keeper of the Dead]] over no longer using her power vision exclusively.<ref name="E.1 eWarring" />
