Maka Albarn is a one-star scythe meister at Death Weapon Meister Academy and the daughter of Spirit Albarn, the Grim Reaper's current weapon partner. Disgusted by her father's antics, she followed in her mother's footsteps and became a scythe-meister partnered with the magic scythe, Soul Eater, to create a death scythe more powerful than her father. Possessing a rather serious personality, Maka is a studious girl with excellent grades and is noted to be courageous enough to fight against fear itself. She is, however, repulsed by womanizing antics such as that of her father.
