New Spirit means new Magic!

In Game Sprite

Lumina is the spirit of Light, and like how Shade only works for Sprite, this spirit only works for the Girl. So one of her three spells is the INCREDIBLY boring Saber spells, but on the other hand, LUCENT BEAM.


Girl's spells

Lucid Barrer: 4MP to cast, No sells weapon attacks before a certain point.

Lucent Beam: 8 MP to cast, Two lines of light travel in , do 90 degree turns, and then smash into opposite sides of an enemy. Hilariously good against undead..

Light Saber: 5 MP to cast, Light Elemental weapons. No additional effect I can determine.

Lumina has good offensive and defensive utility for the girl, and has her best offensive spell. Her best defensive and support spells are yet to come.
