Shapeshifting/Mimicry - during the ruins section of the game, the Maw took the form of Jack, Marianne's deceased foster parent.

However, when Marianne is using astral projection, it is not capable of possessing her, allowing Marianne to return to her physical body. The Maw was the culprit behind the Niwa Massacre as it possessed the resort's nurse, slaughtering its guests. As it is a spirit, it is capable of possessing humans, and possibly animals without their will.

Possession - the Maw's main motivation for hunting Marianne.

It's possible that the Maw wasn't always as big as it appeared in the game, as it alludes to the fact that it outgrew its past vessels.

It also has a pair of bony, fleshy wings that appear to not work. It's head appears skully and has two white, cloudy eyes and a form on its head resembling an axe blade. The Maw is gargantuan in stature but slim in build. The only person the Maw acts like an intelligent being to is Lilianne, considering they were born of the same conditions, and have lived the same life for some time. It is also not extremely clever, Marianne being able to trick it simply by dislodging rubble to the opposite direction of her. Despite being powerful, the Maw is in fact desperate, as whenever Marianne escapes it, the beast moans. It is very arrogant, the very existence of Marianne in proximity promoting the Maw to think it has already won its ultimate desire. Despite the direct pursuit it uses, it is capable of manipulating people in the material world, specifically Lilianne, into helping its cause, which is to quench its thirst for death. Deer bodies with strange wounds can be found throughout the game, implying that The Maw possessed these animals. When possessing another physical body, it is only able to control them for so long, as its immense power causes the body to break down and wilt away.

The Maw is a malevolent creature spawned and given freedom from a tortured part of Lilianne's soul in exchange to save her and her sister from a house fire set by Henry Wilk. The entity originally became possible when Lilianne was sexually abused by Richard.
