The father machine itself is large and dominates the exhibit hall it is located in, at thirty feet tall with hundreds of legs used to pile and knock down stones.{{book ref|yumi|40}}
The father machine was given instructions to harvest Investiture from spirits (although this includes souls), to be used as a power source, and to protect itself. The machine's abilities derive from this command. The Investiture drawn from the hijo is used to create and power hion lines. The machine grows these hion line stubs up from the ground in the surrounding countryside.{{book ref|yumi|40}}
When threatened, the machine can increase the rate that it works to stack rock, though it becomes more reckless in doing so.{{book ref|yumi|34}} In order to protect itself, the machine uses Investiture to create a transparent barrier around its vicinity which people cannot pass through.{{book ref|yumi|40}} It is also able to repair itself, creating physical parts out of a smokey Investiture drawn from the spirits.{{book ref|yumi|40}} By the time the machine was destroyed, most of the machine had long been replaced in this manner.{{book ref|yumi|41}} The machine is also able to exert influence over the [[nightmare]]s, and uses these as additional tools to defend itself.{{book ref|yumi|40}} Since it was activated, the father machine's level of Investiture endowed it with some level of sentience.{{book ref|yumi|40}}
The machine is able to draw souls from a great distance, apparently due to each human on the planet having some of Virtuosity's Investiture within them.{{wob ref|16178}}
