Powers and Abilities[]
Unrestricted Spells[]
Seeds of Hiisi (ヒーシの種 Hīshi no Tane): Para is capable of scattering his body tissue, and manipulating inorganic substances which his "body" is attached. He easily makes Rinne in this way.
Rinne[]
Rinne in the shape of vehicles used by Para all have names written in four Chinese characters and ended with "Gō" (号); the character is a suffix used to indicate a name for vehicles.
Taijinkunshi-Gō (大人君子号, lit. "Virtuous Gentlemen") and Onjūtonkō-Gō (温柔敦厚号, lit. "Gentle and Magnanimous"): Rinne in the shape of vintage buses with front engine, aka "bonnet buses". There were boards above the driver's seat which displayed the names of the buses respectively. The buses' exterior had faded to the point where their original color were indistinguishable; this was due to the exposure to wind, rain, and road dust.
Kujinkanrai-Gō (苦尽甘来号, lit. "Sweetness After Bitterness"): Rinne in the shape of a compact van. It was used during the events of the Second Great War and was destroyed in Misaki City after losing control from Pirsoyn's Unrestricted Spell Daimon.
Mujōjinsoku-Gō (無常迅速号, lit. "Promptitude of the Changes of the Times"): Rinne in the shape of a kindergarten bus. Para created this one from a bus found nearby after Kujinkanrai-Gō was destroyed. Hyakki Yakō then used this bus to travel to Xanadu.
Shunpūtaitō-Gō (春風駘蕩号, lit. "Genial Spring Weather"): Rinne in the shape of a small bus. It was used to transport Wilhelmina Carmel, Rebecca Reed and Justus to the luxury liner, the Lord of the Seas, for the latter's unveiling ceremony.

Trivia[]
- Para is named after a spirit in Finnish folklore who was believed to bring wealth to the farm that was lucky enough to harbor him. Para could appear in the form of animals that were seen frequently around the farmstead, such as a snake, dog, or rabbit. It could also be constructed by a farmwife envious of her neighbors. One typical form consisted of a spindle wrapped with yarn for a body and a communion wafer for a heart.
- Para has the same FUNimation English voice actor as Satoru Ōmine.
