Abilities and Powers[]
On the individual level, Aura's fighting strength is not as high as other level 100 NPCs. In fact, she is ranked second from the bottom among the Floor Guardians of Great Tomb of Nazarick in terms of single-combat. Even some of the Area Guardians, who are optimized for combat, are stronger than her.
Nevertheless, Aura's main specialties are guerrilla warfare and group combat. She performs best when deployed alongside others. With beasts at her command, Aura's combat abilities far surpass those of any other Guardian in terms of handling group battles.[1]
For example, When working together with her brother, Mare, Aura plays a role of front-liner perfectly, with flawless teamwork as a pair. And during the Siege of the Royal Capital, Aura and her beasts easily overwhelmed and slaughtered all human defenders that came across them. Her low stats are also only relative to other NPCs of the same level; she can still kill a much lower-leveled human such as the former Admantite adventurer Vesture Kloff Di Laufe effortlessly all by herself.
As a ranger, Aura possesses extraordinary physical abilities. She is capable of running at high speed and performing amazing maneuvers in both wide-open areas and difficult terrains. Aura's hearing ability is so great to the extent where she can hear anything based on the distance set between herself and the foe. Additionally, She has a high-leveled detection ability that lets her perceive camouflaged foes that are using the [Invisibility] spell.[2][3] However, she can still fall short against a [Perfect Unknownable] user, having a very hard time spotting anyone who utilizes it. Such user of that potent spell will end up registering on her senses as a vague presence.[4] Aura is also good at masking her presence. While she was in the Great Forest of Tob, Narberal Gamma failed completely to detect Aura's presence. In fact, Narberal was not even aware that Aura is there with her until mentioned, much to the latter's surprise.
Since Aura has beast tamer class, she has the power to tame wild beasts, including ones from the New World with her beast tamer skills.[5] She also possesses passive skills that have buffing and de-buffing effects. These abilities act through her breath and have a radius of several meters, some even up to ten meters. With the effect of certain skills, that radius can be enlarged to unbelievable proportions.
In the Sorcerer Kingdom, Aura's scope of work has increased by a wide margin. Besides having to command her own magical beasts, she now has to operate a department that deploys a warning net that provides adequate coverage over the ever-increasing boundaries of the Sorcerer Kingdom’s territories.[6]

Trivia[]
- While Aura has the ability to communicate with monsters, it is limited to creatures that she has tamed herself.
- Aura desires to possess a flying magical beast to add to her collection as well as a unicorn.[12]
- Ainz had planned to give Aura a Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown in Special Drama CD 04, but before he could do it, Aura had already left together with Mare.[13]

- In The Sealed Evil Tree Drama CD, Aura used an unnamed Skill to evaluate the level and stats of Zy'tl Q'ae, with it implied to give her a readout of the results. The readout was also implied to be color-coded, with mentions of a, "tri-level color difference". It also seemed there was a limit to how far it could measure stats, as the Evil Tree's HP was beyond her Skill's measuring range.
- As admitted by Aura, the number of beasts she could tame using the skills of her job class had already begun to reach its overall cap limit. Because of this, Aura initiated a experiment where instead of using her skills to tame a beast, she would instead rely on the traditional methods of training and mental conditioning in order to tame a beast and make it become submissive to her.
