“

Your clones weren't real. They were just illusions. Illusions bound to your body parts. Like your hand. That's why I managed to scratch you. And why you could hold me.

My Real Me is Scattered (マイ・リアル・ミー・イズ・スキャタード, Mai Riaru Mī izu Sukyatādo) is the Talent of Nephele Vetti, featured in the comic series Pink among Blood Red Roses.

My Real Me is Scattered grants Nephele the ability to detach her own body parts and bind illusions to them, appearing as duplicates of herself.

Appearance

My Real Me is Scattered is bound to Nephele's body, and thus has no appearance of its own. However, a non-canon form of the Talent exists in artworks related to the series. This form has a humanoid body with a physique similar to that of Nephele herself. The talent also has the same stitch mark tattoos as Nephele across its entire body, with the exception of the cheek marks. The Talent has short triangular ears, a star shaped right eye and a button for a left eye with 5 black dots above it. My Real Me is Scattered has a heart shaped patch sewn onto the left side of its chest.

Abilities

Body Detachment

My Real Me is Scattered's primary ability allows Nephele to detach her own body parts at certain points throughout her body. There are 17 points in total where she can detach, marked using stitch tattoos she got to match the ability. When the parts detach, they make a "BARA BARA" sound. These parts can be controlled to a limited degree (such as grasping and holding using a hand), though this isn't particularly useful beyond basic functions. Nephele can still feel the detached parts as if they were still connected to her, allowing her to walk normally

Clone Illusions

My Real Me is Scattered's secondary ability can bind illusions to the parts Nephele detaches. These illusions appear as exact clones of Nephele. Simply put, these clones work "one-way", they can touch others, but you can't touch them. This is due to the nature of how the clones form. For example: If Nephele forms a clone using her hand, the only tangible part that one can touch is the clone's hand. Trying to touch the rest of it will simply cause you to fade through it as if it was thin air. These clones are stronger than Nephele usually is, which allows Nephele to carry more than she normally would be able to.

This combination of functions makes My Real Me is Scattered exceptionally useful in combat, allowing Nephele to attack precisely and execute various tactics and plans to a tee. The more "clones" are on the battlefield, the easier it becomes for Nephele to overwhelm her target.

The ability's main weakness is that once Nephele's target figures out how the ability works, it becomes much easier to attack the "original" Nephele, which causes all the clones to disappear, leaving the real Nephele open to harm as her real body remains scattered.
