1) My original idea was a scrying semblance, which I will post sometime later, but I'm really not feeling it for her.

2) I also feel like she needs more oomph in her fighting, since she's a mage-type and her weapon is a gymnastics ribbon-whip that has fire, ice, force and lightning in it. 

3) I have contemplated a fire-based semblance, but while the Little Match Girl sells matchsticks and tries to warm herself by the light of them one snowy night, she doesn't have that much fire in her and I feel like I've alluded to the fire enough with her emblem and weapon.

4) So my other options are hallucinations of a sort, to reflect the hallucinations LMG sees while freezing to death and in character they would basically be her making the others see what they 'want to see' or something, I'm iffy on it,

5) or a frost/cold based semblance to reflect how she died in the snow at the end of the story, but I'm not sure how to tie it into her reflection of character,

6) or a 'get better/harder/faster/stronger' semblance to reflect her never being good enough for her parents. 1) Reading the future with a big ball?

2) .....Her weapon sounds more Scourge-like than I remember.

3) Yeah, I don't think it's strictly necesary. If you want to add anything Fire-related, there's Dust for that, so a Fire-based Semblance wouldn't be necesary for the references.

4) Wait...freezing to death? The version I knew had her "going to heaven with her grandma", leaving it more vague but implying she burned herself to death, considering she was staring into the tiny flames right there and then. And if not, then she died of hunger.

As for the Hallucinations...............LMG saw images of food, and eventually her grandma, in the flames of the matchsticks. So.....Fire that creates or induces Hallucinations?

5) I can't think of anything either. Though I feel a Fire/Heat related Semblance would be more fitting than a Cold/Freezing one.

6) That sounds a bit.......very-last-resorty.
