A “half-witch” who quietly grows within a membrane-enclosed womb, absorbing nutrients from the impurities released when Puella Magi become witches, the emotions that humans emit, and so on. In order to stabilize the contorted power she holds, gemstones are scattered across her body as she grows. When she eventually breaks free of her shell and matures, the newly-unchained witch will hungrily absorb all the energy there is. Should she swallow the entire planet, her feeding will likely continue unabated until she becomes a giant mass of cosmic matter.

Nobody can know what effect the impurity scattering away from her may bring.

They are uninterested in normal humans without magic, because they don't make good offerings.

In Magia Record

Warning, this section contains spoilers.

A massive “half-witch” body surrounding Ui Tamaki, which the Magius are incubating below Hotel Fenthope for the majority of the game’s first arc. Ui’s powers are the source of the Doppel phenomenon, absorbing impurity from the Soul Gems of Puella Magi within the city. The Magius planned to use the energy from the transformation of Eve’s Grief Seed– and the destruction of Kamihama City– to expand her range of influence to the entire world, which would both shut out the Incubators and continually provide the rest of the universe with energy from Doppels. Ui, Touka and Nemu’s wish was to steal Kyuubey’s energy-collection abilities, in hopes of creating a system to prevent Puella Magi from becoming witches. Unfortunately, the initial rush of collected impurity threatened to turn Ui into a witch on the spot. As damage control, Nemu summoned an unseen Rumor to remove Ui’s identity as a human being, and stored it in the newly-disempowered “Little Kyubey” for safekeeping. Without any mind or emotions, Ui’s body was at no immediate risk of turning into a witch… but as a side effect, the other Magius’ memories of her were removed as well. With no memory of Ui, their time together, or their original motivations, the Magius’ plan went in a much more dangerous and self-serving direction than it otherwise would have. After the Little Kyubey reunites with Ui’s body and the Magius regain their memories, they help Iroha rescue her from inside Eve. Once Ui reawakens, her powers seem to be under control, and the crisis seems to be over for now.

Trivia

• Originally the Oscars had no name in their description card, only "????". This changed after the release of Chapter 10 in which the witch they serve and their descriptions were given more clarity. They have, in fact, two separate description cards present in the game's list of witches, rumors and familiars.
• "Shitori Egumo," which means "I'm going alone," is taken from a poem by Kenji Miyazawa. He also wrote Night on the Galactic Railroad, which Iroha, Mifuyu's and Yachiyo's doppels take their names from. He also [wrote] [the] [works] where Kuro's, Nemu's and Touka's doppels take their names from.
