Witch Card
子守の魔女。その性質は困窮何処かに落としてしまった赤ん坊を探し続け、人間を見つけるとその年齢を問わず誰構わずおんぶ紐を伸ばして捕まえようとしてくる魔女。ただしうまく捕縛できたとしても今度は落とさないようにときつく締め上げるあまり窒息させてしまうだろう。ちなみに、まだ幼い精神をもつこの魔女は進んで子守をしているわけでは決してなく、赤ん坊が好きな訳でもない。恵まれた生活を送る者達を嫌い目を伏せ自身を呪い続けている。

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
子守の魔女の手下Dその役割は右蹴り自身の頭部で石を弾き飛ばしては、その石を赤ん坊だと勘違いした魔女が走り寄る様を見てケタケタと笑っているかなり性格の悪い手下。他にも魔女が新しい赤ん坊役の人間を捕獲するとすかさず群がってその血を吸い尽くしてしまうため、魔女にとってはただただ厄介な存在でしかない。たとえが望まずとも、この手下はいつの間にか魔女の周りへ群がって来る。

Minions of the witch of babysitting. Their role is to kick hopscotch stones. These foul-natured minions use their heads to knock stones over, then cackle at the sight of the witch as she runs over to tend to the stones, which she mistakenly believes are babies. Additionally, whenever the witch captures new humans to fill the role of babies, the minions will immediately swarm them and suck them dry of blood. As such, the witch sees these minions as nothing more than awful pests. No matter how much she loathes them, the witch always finds these minions swarming around her before she even knows it. | ||||||||||
