Description A redesign version of Ophelia. Revised from the old pic: [link]

To tell you the truth, Ophelia's skirt was half cut that reaches her knees during the fandom, based off the old drawing. I'm sorry, it was my fault for not drawing her that much for DA, so I should've show the length of her skirt back then since changing her design. Sorry. XD

Also, just to let you know Ophelia's height is same as Ulric's, since the old pic. Just to remind you. Anyway, on with the show;

Bio: Moving away from the town of mortals, Ophelia and her great aunt, Margherita, began to live in Halloween Town as their new home. Though, as they moved to a new house, aunt Margherita suggested Ophelia what she should do: make new friends. In truth, Ophelia has been lonely for so long, especially back in her old home, because she didn’t have any friends. Not because that she’s an enchantress, it’s because that she was feeling being rejected or ignored, which made her feel underappreciated. She also feels compared herself to others in a reluctant way.

While looking around in Halloween Town, she met the Ragdoll-Boy, Ulric, and then began to be friends with him . Although, she has a secret crush on him, but tries to be friend to him instead. Whenever Ulric is feeling down, she tries to help him as a supportive friend, as she tries to treated him as a special person. Although, despite her friendship, her rival is mostly on Shock, now as an attractive teenager. THough, Ophelia can’t stand her because she had been “judged” about her “still-in-training” magic... and being teased her linkings on Ulric by Shock’s “witchery” with a “b.”

Despite being an enchantress herself, Ophelia’s magic is “still-in-training” ( her great aunt is still teaching her at home, especially back in her old home town). The truth is, her power doesn’t have the majority of magic; just minor. So in other words, she can only transform people or any objects into animals that are over minority: rats, birds, frogs, bats, bugs, and even cats (kittens counts). Besides practicing her magic, she also does needlepoint on fabrics as embroidery (her favorite subject matter is moon and stars), during her free times.


Inspired by:
- The Enchactress (Disney's Beauty and the Beast)
- Coraline (from Henry Selick's 2009 film),
- Neko Mesume( Gegege no Kitaro) (2007 version)
- The Boelyn Sisters (The Other Boelyn Girl)
and other inspirations for enchantress from films that involve magic (Sleeping Beauty, Hocus Pocus, etc.)

Choice of being voiced by?
Anna-Sophia Robb (who played Violet from "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" )


*Note: While I was revising her, I'm trying to make her personality better, as I tried to develop her more. I didn't want her to be some typical character who is just being a "love interest."

As for her magic power, I wanted to make something like a power that a person need to work on more. Something like you're still wearing an orange belt from Karate class, but still need to practice more.

Also added the tiny sparks on Ophelia's wand.


Enjoy.
