I have a theory that in order for Capella to rebuild herself after taking damage, she requires her heart to be "broken" first.
Whether this is literally her heartbeat being broken/cut off from hate/disgust–fuelled bodily harm, or her emotionally (feeling rejection due to her opposition's hatred/refusal of love) is unknown, but what I believe is that Capella mandatorily needs to be hurt first by another in some way or form in order to use her ability.
Correct me if this evidence is wrong, but I'm pretty sure that me and many people have picked up on the fact that in every fight we've seen Capella in so far, she's never beat on her opponent first. Instead, she provokes them into feeling immense hatred toward her, and then they angrily attempt to harm her in some way or form. —This was especially evident when she stood off to Felix for the first time. (As shown in the photos)
Maybe, her receiving this immense, undeniable, physical hatred from someone, when her innate desire in this world is to be wholeheartedly loved (as she's stated many times), is what triggers her Authority. Maybe, her Authority grants her the ability to reshape and evolve her body into something that could receive love, as it's what she craves so badly. Every time she twists herself into a new form, it's her witch factor actively trying to deter rejection from hurting her ever again. But unfortunately, due to her despicable personality, her ability always fails in reaching its true goal.
Doesn't she speak very similarly to a spiteful, bitter girl who doesn't believe in true love and romance anymore after having her heart broken, so she's resorted to using her body to feel wanted? Don't you think that when she speaks of disgusting, ugly creatures being unlovable, she could actually be referring to how she really feels about herself?
Maybe that's why she's so obsessed with becoming someone's dream girl every time she meets them, and why she's so adamant on becoming "mama", since mothers are maternal figures that demand instinctual love. Capella's ultimate goal is to find unconditional love and devotion, and until she achieves this, her physical form will continue to adapt and change in hopes of becoming something loveable after being broken over and over again. But sadly, her mindset remains stagnant. That is Capella's curse.
She is Lustful because she seeks Love in the most physical way possible, disregarding personality and non surface-level/bodily acts of yearning.
Maybe in the future, to defeat her, somebody will have to show her true understanding and kindness without resorting to violence, rejection and disgust first.
