Circe is a mysterious figure who first appeared on the world stage something around ten years ago. Nobody knows who she was before she was Circe, and she certainly hasn’t let on; she’s one of very few villains who has not been caught even once by the MGA, so information is scarce and public knowledge is comprised of internet conspiracy theories and her own speech. On the first anniversary of the founding of the Magical Girl Association she appeared for the first time. While her origins are mysterious, her goals are not; she gave a full-throated denial of the MGA and the regulation and control it represented, claiming that magic is beyond the control of mortal men and should be allowed to be wild and free, not shackled by the fears of the powerful. She dips in and out of major activity, and until the most recent anniversary had not shown up in any reports for two or three years.
The Witch of Rebellion appears as a woman with blue-tinged pale skin, most of her face usually hidden in the shadow of an impressively large blue witch’s hat but for the purple glow of her eyes and long white hair falling in waves down to her bottom. She wears a slim fitting dark blue gown with white trim, and long white gloves and socks (but no shoes, preferring to float about on a broom).
She leads the Witch’s Glade, a group opposed to the MGA and any kind of attempt to control Magic; despite the name, the group has swelled with villains of all kinds. Circe is frustrated by the fact so many of her followers are simply using her ideology and resources as an excuse to wreak havoc, but is willing to indulge them if it means undercutting the power of the Magical Girl Association and it’s allies.
