The Spirit of Lucky's

From The Codex
This world is quiet now.

This Katie left.

Left it to rot.

Each Katie leaves.

They all leave.''

~ The Spirit to Katie

Background

The Spirit of Lucky's (Otherwise known as "The Witch" or the "Lucknow Spirit") is a major character in the book Seconds, and is the house spirit of Lucky's.

Little is known about the Lucknow Spirit's origins other than she is the house spirit of Lucky's and is as old as the building itself. When Katie took the Witch's Pot from Lucky's and poured the dirt within on the mushrooms, the Lucknow Spirit made his presence known by Lis and Katie. Throughout Katie's revisions, the spirit and Lis fought over the mushrooms, with the spirit eventually taking full control of them and rewriting the timeline to her liking.

After Katie resolves issues with the Lucknow Spirit, she returns to Lucky's with Katie and lets go of Seconds. Katie gives the last mushroom to Lis, and the three return to their original timeline, with the house spirits never being seen again.

Powers and Techniques

Undead Physiology (Is a house spirit), Invisibility (Remains invisible to those around her and only appears to certain people), Immortality (Ageless; The Lucknow Spirit is a spirit who has lived as long as Lucky's [possibly far longer], which should be comparable to Seconds in age. It's implied the dresser Lis sleeps in is a link to her own life, further proven by what the dresser's true form resembles and how it is damaged affected Lis. This holds true for the Lucknow Spirit who is connected to the witch's pot), Self-Sustenance (Nuritional & Restful; Considers eating and sleeping and a kind gesture of the house owner, and will make their life a worse for the inhabitants), Reality Warping (If not appeased, house spirits will make life "a living hell"), Shapeshifting and Size Manipulation (Can shift her appearance and size at will), Telekinesis (can telekinetically move objects around and redirect projectiles), Teleportation and Battlefield Removal (Can teleport herself and others into Subspace), Nothingness Manipulation (Can eat clothes and erased Katie's last two mushrooms), Flight, possible Acausality (Past and Future Defiance; It is implied that house spirits exists as a single entity across the entire multiverse [See Explanation]. Lis's dresser exists separately from each space-time as shown in Subspace, which the Lucknow Spirit should be comparable to), Law Manipulation (Subspace can shape reality to the user's liking. An example being Scott Pilgrim and the various video game-like aspects of the world, which are a result of Subspace and its perspective-based abilities), Perspective Manipulation & Observation (Unconscious Manifestation; Potent Subspace users can use the perspective-based powers of Subspace to overwrite reality to fit how they view it in the real world), Avatar Creation (Has an avatar in subspace she unconsciously creates), Space-Time Manipulation (3+1-D, Defensive) & Dimensional Travel (Characters can manifest doors directly to subspace, or even move between subspace and the real world through sheer force. Breaking the walls between subspace and the main universe), Mind Manipulation (Entering Subspace directly accesses one's mind and subconscious thoughts), Sheer Will (Those who can access the powers of Subspace in the real world naturally require a strong will and determination to control them), Subjective Reality & Dimensional Storage (Whatever the user can imagine will be created in subspace. For instance, Scott manifested his love for Ramona as the Power of Love, which he can pull from and store in Subspace), Portal Creation & Summoning (As the powers of the characters originate from Subspace, they can create portals or summon beings and objects from their subspace)

Optional Equipment

Mushrooms


Other

Standard Tactics: Throughout Katie's revisions, the spirit and Lis fought over the mushrooms, with the spirit eventually taking full control over them and rewriting the timeline to her liking. Otherwise, it doesn't seem to interact much.

Weaknesses: Has been alone for so long that she is willing to do anything to make her world "perfect" to live in.

Explanations

For further explanation of subspace, read this blog.

It's implied throughout the story of Seconds that Lis and the Lucknow Spirit are the same entity across each timeline and only have one incarnation that is connected to every timeline. For Lis, her connection would be the red dresser which encompasses every alternate timeline in the Seconds multiverse. Furthermore, there are timelines where Katie never buys the building on Lucknow Street, yet the spirit is still in Seconds.
