**Popo** is one of the five Witches that exist in Regnant. Popo lives in the harbor city of Port Noir with her friend, a migratory pig named Bubu. She is always full of energy and often brightens everybody’s mood. Though a lively girl, she can be very naïve at times.

## Appearance

Popo has blonde hair, blue eyes, white pale skin, and has a green frilly headband with bowties. She also wears a green short-sleeved jacket that cuts off at the midriff, white shorts and brown boots lined with gold, paired with green knee-high socks.

As the Wind Goddess, she wears a green minidress accented with gold and features diamond cutouts that exposes her navel, white panties, yellow fairy wings, and white thigh-high stockings with green patterns at the edges, and white boots decorated by winged ankles and ruby on each shoes connected by decorative gold accents.

In her ending, she wears fluffy earmuffs and a heavy brown coat with Bubu snuggled in her chest.

## Personality

Popo is a upbeat and sweet girl who desperately wants to help everyone. She can be somewhat child-like and naive at times.

Under the surface, Popo deals with feelings of inferiority, constantly worrying that the people around her may grow to hate her if they don't hate her already. During her first tuning, Popo's shadow reveals that she is afraid that she is the "most useless of all the Witches", and "[wonders] if [she's] really capable of helping anyone at all."

Popo admires the outside world and dreams of one day traveling it.

In a minor bonding event, Popo revealed her favorite type of bird is the Lilian's Lovebird because some of them used to live near her shack.

## History

### Prior to Main Events

Popo was born to a traveling couple before they died from an accident. She meets Bubu shortly afterward.

As a result of Mayor Bonanza's lies, the inhabitants of Port Noir have ostracized her for being a Witch, making it easier for the mayor to manipulate her. Mayor Bonanza can be quoted with manipulative taunts, such as “You are a Witch, and hated by all the citizens. You must never return to the city,” and “You are able to contribute to the city’s prosperity if you perform your duties and protect the city on your own.” She believes these words and diligently continued to work for the city.

## Gameplay

### Combat

> "*Popo is the Wind Witch; she can use a bow. Popo can perform long-range attacks as well as wield wind magic. Popo can also fly, so she is able to reach steps that are higher up. Popo is best used as a back-line attacker.*"

> — Popo's unit introduction
>
>

Introduced as the first Bow user available to the party, Popo serves as the party's long-range combatant and utility unit. As the Wind Witch, Popo is classified as an Air unit, granting her a base 10 Jump Power, which allows her to fly across the battlefield unimpeded by most structural heights and ledges; though she is somewhat held back by her average Leg Speed (tile movement) of 4.

Whirlwind is a good up to 2 tile wind attack. Long shot has nice range (2-6) along with heart shot (2-5) with the latter being able to instakill. She even gets a mini heal to heal a decent amount of hp. Her AOE attack “Kaboom” can attack to the middle, left, right, top, and bottom, so it can be useful for clearing out enemies in certain positions. Remember, she can’t attack right in front of her with her bow, but this is fine with her elemental attacks along with being a back row attacker. She has good movement range, but can die quite easily, so leave her as a back row attacker.

## Trivia

* Popo is subject to an artistic error when changing to her Goddess form sprite, where her navel is located noticeably lower than originally shown on her normal Witch attire sprite.
