Description Mikiko Chie's witch form. When she spreads her wings the arrow fires. Her familiars trap their victims in dangerous worlds made from their own minds. Her barrier is a jungle temple with lots of traps. Karyna resides in the center of the temple in the altar room. The altar room is very large but only has one entrance/exit.

And I'm not just doing this as a meme, she's actually going to transform. So everyone, get ready for the most difficult witch battle of your lives!

I tried to make the design symbolic and stuff but I'll leave it to you to figure it out, just reread Mikiko's profile. Oh and the most obvious parallel between the witch's design and Mikiko's design was actually unintentional. That hole in the witch's chest was meant to be a keyhole but it also looks like the bottom of Mikiko's vest.

Since the text in the picture might be a bit hard to read because of the font and the text size, I'll copy it here.

Name: Karyna
Type: The Trapped Witch
Nature: Guilt
Description: The trapped witch With a guilty nature. The more she struggles the more she harms others and herself. The keys to her freedom are within her reach but she cannot grasp them. Her wings are made of the burnt remains of her lost dreams.

Minion
Name: Hildegard
Duty: Storytelling
Description: The witch’s minion who’s duty is storytelling. They engulf those they come across in vivid tales. Those who become lost in their pages can never escape.

Now these are just ideas, but how about you change the barrier into a church in ruins with inverted crosses everywhere?
It could represent heresy (You know... Witches in middle ages and all.) or guilt of betraying or destroying.
Also, name for this could also be Arundo (Latin for arrow), Manuballista (Latin for crossbow) or Schuld Gogh (Schuld meaning guilt in German, and Gogh referring to Von Gogh, an artist who killed himself (Influence of witches and suicide is often caused by grief and guilt)).

I like this design - what a bundle of angst. The green aura and the headless statue was a great design choice. Her head is an arrow, or maybe a swamp gas flame?

her head is an arrow. The whole design is meant to resemble a crossbow, like Mikiko's weapon. The chain is the bowstring, the body is the stock, and the wings are the limbs. When she spreads her wings, the chain goes taut and the arrow fires.

No it has to be a goat. The spirit of art is very picky ;D

Well, for the general shape, I did it sort of like a collage. Then for the eeeevil glow I surrounded the picture with green, blurred it, and then applied a fiber effect and I think I also added difference clouds. But I also used a bunch of different filters on different parts to get the effect I wanted. For example I used mosaic on the wings and then deleted sections to get the torn up effect.

I don't really have the time or energy right now for RPing so I thought Mikiko should go out with a bang

Aww, but sadness aside, this design is just fabulous!
I was there re-reading her profile and gzuz, I can see some of the references.

Which made the whole thing sadder... ):
