Shin (SHIN) is a witch from Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story: Magia Record.
Witch Card
The witch of babysitting. Her nature is impoverishment. A witch who continually searches for a baby that she dropped somewhere. Upon seeing a human, no matter who or what age they are, she extends her baby carrier’s straps to try and catch them. Even if she succeeds in capturing one, however, the way she tightly binds them to prevent them from falling again will likely suffocate them. Incidentally, this still young-minded witch isn’t babysitting because she wants to; quite the opposite, in fact. She doesn’t even like babies at all. She casts her gaze down in contempt of those who lead privileged lives, and curses herself in perpetuity. |
Minions
Minions of the babysitter witch. Their role is hopscotch. When these minions send a rock flying, their Witch chases after it thinking it's a baby. Cruel creatures, they simply watch and laugh. They also suck the blood out of the humans that their Witch captures, posing a large nuisance to the Witch. Though no matter how much the Witch hates this, the minions will always stay by its side. |
