Powers and Abilities:
- Superhuman Physical Characteristics

- Shapeshifting, Transformation, Energy Manipulation and Projection (Shares the same illusionary and energy-based powers as Tisiphone)
- Law Manipulation (The Furies oversee all oaths and bonds in the entirety of the Greek World and physically manifest them as stones that bind the oathmakers magically, being incarnations of law itself[2])
- Acausality (Type 4) (Predates the birth of time itself and existed alongside the Primordials)
- Soul Manipulation, Memory Manipulation, Probability Manipulation and Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1) (Souls are constructs of magic, composed of their form, the metaphysical nature of a being, their luck, their mind and their direction. Stated alongside her Fury sisters to have attempted to torture Kratos and break his mind, body and soul[3], as well as being responsible for clouding Kratos' mind and preventing him from recollecting his memories of his past events, with the Furies maintaining the status quo by making Orkos his oathkeeper, until Kratos himself killed the Furies and then Orkos at his request[4]. Damaging souls can shatter and fragment their memories as a consequence[5])
Resistance to the following:
- Divine Magic (Gods and other magic users are able to resist the innate properties of their magics)
- Time Slow, Causality Manipulation, Statistics Reduction, Age Manipulation and Telekinesis (Able to resist the effects of the Amulet of Uroboros used by Kratos, however, its Time Stop proved too much for Alecto to handle)
- Ice Manipulation (Resists Ice of Poseidon from Kratos)
- Lightning Manipulation, Power Nullification, Paralysis Inducement and Status Effect Inducement (Able to resist the powers of the Lightning of Zeus used by Kratos)
- Absorption, Life-Force Absorption, Mind Manipulation, Soul Manipulation, Memory Manipulation, Probability Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1), Soul Absorption, Transmutation, Deconstruction, Mind Manipulation and Magic Negation (Souls are constructs of magic, composed of their form, the metaphysical nature of a being, their luck, their mind and their direction. Able to resist Kratos' usage of the powers of the Souls and Arms of Hades, the souls can easily drain people of their magic reserves and strip them of their magical abilities[6], while the Arms have the ability to transform the living[7] into fragilized souls of the damned, as well as dissolve solid objects on contact.[8] Damaging souls can shatter and fragment their memories as a consequence[5])
Attack Potency: Multi-Solar System level (The Furies could warp their illusions into being real and tangible, which included illusions like such as the city of Sparta at night-time with a moon and a starry sky in the background[4], which would require this much energy, as well as another dimension of Sparta with mountain ranges and a Sun in the background[4], which would require this much energy. As the Queen of the Furies, she should be on par with her sister. Effortlessly created a dimension of Sparta at night with a starry sky, which would require this much energy)
Speed: FTL (Could easily keep up with Kratos)
Lifting Strength: At least Class Z, higher with Ink Manipulation (Could easily overpower demigod Kratos in battle physically)
Striking Strength: Multi-Solar System level (Should at the very least be comparable to Tisiphone's pet Daemon, who is itself a construct made out of Tisiphone's energy, which can easily create massive dimensions to their liking)
Durability: Multi-Solar System level (Can withstand blows from Demigod Kratos)
Stamina: Superhuman (Able to withstand brutal beatdowns from Kratos and fight him for a long time)
Range: Standard Melee Range, Extended Melee Range with energy blasts, several Tens of Meters in Kraken form, Interstellar with illusions and reality warping
Standard Equipment: None notable
Intelligence: Unknown
Weaknesses: Incredibly arrogant. Also seems to be incredibly lustful for Kratos, seeing as Megaera calls her and Tisiphone as being "too kind" to him.
