Mariposa (蝶, Chō; Spanish/Japanese for "Butterfly"). Her zanpakutō's looks like an ordinary wakizashi, except it shines a brilliant shade of silver. The hilt is light-pink with a tsuba made of two slim swirls of metal looping around the blade to make an open oval, resembling an "S".

• Resurrección: Her release command for her zanpakutō is "Flap Your Wings" (羽撃く, habataku), referring to a butterfly flapping its wings. To release her zanpakutō, she holds it up, like the start of a low sweep stroke, with her right hand. The wakizashi glows as she puts her left hand up to it, before she grabs its blade tightly and stabs it into her stomach, in the spot where her belly button is. A column of silvery spiritual energy with a pink outline erupts around her frame, shooting high into the sky, in turn releasing a torrent of spiritual power that causes tremendous gusts of wind in the immediate vicinity. In its Resurrección state, Ramsha's zanpakutō does not change in appearance at all, retaining its small wakizashi form. Ramsha's physical appearance also remains largely unchanged, however she gains two pairs of butterfly wings sprouting from her back. The upper, smaller pair glows a purplish shade while the lower, larger pair glows a greenish shade. Her clothes change, with a pink belly-dancing bra top covering her breasts and a black loincloth tied across her waist reach till just above her knees. Keeping withinin the traditional aspects of a bellydancer's attire, her entire mid-riff from under her breasts till her waist is uncovered for the world to enjoy. A chain of gold jewellery dangles from the waist area on the loincloth. Just like normal appearance, Ramsha's legs from the knees down and her arms are largely bare. There is a gold anklet on her right foot's ankle, but is otherwise bare, while her left foot is completely bare. Her top reveals a large portion of her cleavage. Unlike normal Arrancar, there is no indication of any sort of Hollow Matter in the form of a mask or anything else in her released form, however, she states that her wings are the only remains of her Hollow stage. They also allow her to fly without the use of the air-walking ability displayed by Arrancar and Soul Reapers.
  Resurrección Special Ability: Her abilities while released include:
  
  • Polen (花粉, Pollen): When Ramsha flaps her wings in her Mariposa state, she gains the ability to produce glittering "fairy dust", which she calls "pollen grains" which can have various effects, ranging from healing minor wounds, to causing intense euphoria to anyone other than Ramsha that comes into contact with it, to poison. The poison effect is rarely, if ever, used directly from the wings though, as Ramsha is not immune to her own poison and using poisoned pollen by flapping her own wings causes her to be affected by it as well. The most common uses are, therefore, the healing and euphoria ones, which she herself can resist the effects of. Anyone who has less than 50 reiatsu than her in a fight and she uses the euphoria effect, the victim feels as if he's in a sexual climax even though no such thing is actually happening. They may still continue to fight, however they will be incredibly distracted. If they effected target has 100 less reiatsu than Ramsha, they faint due to the sheer overload of sexual euphoria.
    
  • Éxtasis (エクスタシー, Ecstacy): Very much like Ichimaru Gin's Bankai, Ramsha's small wakizashi acts in a manner similar to how her proboscis did when she was still a butterfly-themed Hollow. According to Ramsha, her blade is the transformed version of her proboscis. Basically, the blade glows white and extends at high speed to impale Ramsha's opponents from a distance. The blade also carries tremendous force when extending. In addition, Ramsha can maintain the extension and swing the activated Mariposa blade in wide arcs, attacking multiple targets quickly and simultaneously.
    
  • Danza (舞踏, Dance): This is more of a style than an ability. Due to her nature as a belly dancer, Ramsha can perform various bellydancing techniques. She literally "dances" with her opponents instead of actually fighting them, performing various techniques akin to the Sharqi and Sha'abi styles of bellydancing. For this reason, she often performs maneuvers based on bellydancing moves and then strikes with Mariposa's Extension and Contraction abilities from entirely unexpected and unpredictable angles, enabling her to unleash the tremendous extension and contraction properties of her blade to an even more terrifying extent than its normal state. This occurs in the form of a piercing maneuver where the extension and contraction of the blade becomes almost completely-unseen to even the most-diligent of observers. Ramsha explains that it is not because of her speed, and the blade doesn't actually become faster than it is originally, but rather due to the unpredictability of her next move (+100 to Strength). She explains that most fighters are accustomed to fighting on instinct and predicting an opponent's next move to effectively counter or parry it. By "dancing around them", she can confuse her opponent's senses on a subconscious level allowing her to strike with undiscernable attacks, in the end giving the illusion that her attacks become almost completely unseen.
    
  • Beso (キス, Kiss): This, according to Ramsha, is her Mariposa's deadliest ability: to turn into dust for just a second when it expands out and contracts. Ramsha stabs her wakizashi into her wings, and the blade turns into dust for just a second, having its insides covered by the poisonous aspect of the pollen contained within Ramsha's wings. In this way, she does not need to release the poisonous pollen into the air and be effected by it herself. The disintegrated blade then turns solid again, having poisonous molecules now inside it, a poison that dissolves and breaks down cells. At any time should she manage to stab an opponent, she can leave a sliver of her zanpakuto in an opponent when she retracts Mariposa, allowing her to kill an opponent at any time when she chooses to by uttering the release command "Suck them dry, Mariposa" (Kansosoreosuu, Mariposa) for the technique, while placing her foot up to the target. The result causes the target to completely break down and dissolve at the cellular level from the inside out.
