## Profile

### Appearance

Ozma is of average height and build, with doll-like features. She is pale-skinned with freckles. Her hair is curly, shoulder-length, and dirty blonde. She wears a long-sleeved white dress with brown boots. Later, she wears the Ruby Slippers instead of her boots.

### Personality

Ozma has a somewhat similar personality to her player, Casey, though most of her traits are dramatised. She is generally cheerful, but becomes anxious and angry quickly and is prone to mood swings, possibly because of her lack of experience interacting with people. In Episode One: The Red Slippers, Ozma attempts to calm everyone and get them to introduce themselves to each other, and then uses a redstone system to bring them to her home to avoid the rain and mobs. She becomes the de facto leader due to this, seeming to be both sympathetic and somewhat controlling. She carries a facade of confidence to hide her internal crisis over loneliness and pushing others away. She curses a lot, and during a conversation with M43-8R34K in a Side Story she explains that words only have the meaning and impact that people agree on, and she thinks it's funny.

## History

### Pre-Revival

Ozma descends from the Goodwitches, a long-standing bloodline of very powerful witches whose purpose is to protect and maintain the happiness of all people. However, the last Goodwitch before Ozma, Selene, was accidentally killed by one of those she was supposed to protect. This resulted in the bloodline being broken as the witch had been "betrayed" by her charges and failed her mission. When Ozma was reborn, she had no memory of her past.

### Early Revival

Ozma's Goodwitch ritual revival was glitched as a result of the previous witch's death, causing her house to regenerate as a decrepit shack far from any sentient life in the middle of the swamp. Like all those of her bloodline, Ozma has a water allergy which made the swamp excessively dangerous. She chose to move out, building a new house on her own.

### Moving and Science

Ozma's home generated with predominately non-magical textbooks and romance novels alongside the Goodwitch Journals, which she could not read due to the fact her rebirth was bugged. She took these books with her for each move, becoming interested in learning as much as she could about the world around her and developing an enthusiasm for science, redstone and chemistry in specific. She practices medicine to take care of herself, but occasionally experiments. Due to her witch blood, these are often magical in nature, but she refuses to acknowledge it. The original house also spawned with various trashy romance novels, which Ozma enjoys. She daydreams about finding a nice man to date, but frequently describes men negatively in her diary and has written about her attraction to women. She might be a lesbian, especially since her player is a lesbian themself.

### The Clearing

While searching for a new spot to build her next home, Ozma comes across a strange glowing area in a clearing. There she finds a deactivated M43-8R34K. Excited by discovering another entity, she manages to get the android running with redstone she carries as well as magic she uses subconsciously. Immediately after, Katzen and Shelly appear, equally confused by the strange area none of them have seen before. Tabris, a Bee apprentice from a village nearby finds the four and believes they are the 'faces of Oz', a great and powerful Wizard who was prophesied to arrive today. Tabris also states they will be rewarded by Oz if arrive at the Emerald City. Excited by her efforts paying off, confused by Tabris' words, and angry at the idea of magic, Ozma lashes out at the Bee and argues about the nature of Oz. As they do so, they discover a pair of Peculiar Red Slippers that only fit Ozma and are also mentioned in the tale Tabris tells the others. She puts them on but disregards the tale. The group talk/fight about what the best course of action is before mostly agreeing that they should attempt to locate Oz to either prove or disprove his existence and perhaps be rewarded.

### Ozma's Cottage

Ozma, simply excited by the presence of others, takes them to her cottage and allows them to stay. They discuss their respective pasts and Ozma's expertise in chemistry, which Tabris describes as magical. This ignites another fight between the two, ending in a truce after Tabris tells her that she lacks friends due to her angry and rude disposition. Ozma apologises but remains passive-aggressive.

Shelly attempts to eat rocks out of Ozma's chimney, hurting themself on accident. They also discover Ozma's lab, which she hurriedly shoos everyone out of. The rest of the group also discover Ozma's journal, and while she insists they not read it, some catch a glimpse of her surname on the first page: Good*witch*.

Tabris and Katzen split off to talk about the day's events while M43 and Ozma do the same. The two bond over their interest in learning before everyone heads to bed to plan further in the morning.

## Sidequests

### Ozma And Mae's Quest For Some Shit For Katzen's Arm

Restless from the day's events, Ozma and Mae go to the first Goodwitch Cottage in the swamp in search of spare parts, bonding over their forgotten pasts and shared interest in learning.

## Powers and Abilities

### Weapons

Ozma does not carry any special weapons, but mentions she prefers to go to tall places and use a bow and arrow.

### Origin

#### Witch

As a witch, any potions Ozma drinks last two times as long and has the ability to generate a minor effect in short intervals. Villagers also react negatively to her, possibly because of the Goodwitch disappearance leaving them feeling abandoned.

## Relationships

### M43-8R34K

> "What is 'cute'?" *"Cute is like ... attractive endearingly."*
> "I think you are 'cute.'"

> *—* M43-8R34K to Ozma in Episode 1

Ozma is closest with M43 out of her companions. She meets M43 first, and in a way also brings her life by fixing her when she is powered down. Though they have not been friends very long, they share an interest in learning as much as possible from other each other and the world around them. Ozma is willing to share almost any information she has with M43. After their arrival at the Goodwitch Cottage, the two speak alone. Ozma uses many turns of phrase that may doesn't understand, and eventually the use of the word 'cute', which M43 claims not to know. After Ozma explains, M43 calls her cute. This is Ozma's first compliment from anyone, ever.

### Katzen

Ozma and Katzen have an interesting relationship as both suspected themselves to be the last people alive, though Katzen kept to themself while Ozma looked for others. Katzen also met Ozma's predecessor, though they're unaware Ozma is related to the Goodwitch they knew.

### Tabris

Tabris and Ozma do not get along due to Tabris' belief in the Wizard and Ozma's incredibly hatred towards magic to the point that most of their interactions in Episode 1 are the two arguing. When Tabris pairs off to speak privately with Katzen, Ozma watches them through her Very Scientific Telescope distrustfully, complaining to Mae that she "can't hear what they're plotting."

### Shelly

Ozma does not have an official relationship with Shelly, but expressed in her diaries that she was worried Shelly may eat holes in her chimney.

### 97

Upon meeting the unknown person who Ozma meets in what appears to be a dream, she is immediately rude to them, demanding to know who they are and discrediting their integrity upon discovering they believe in the wizard. She mocks him, and when he calls her a witch she curses at him. She calls them pretentious, and teases them for being short before the dream ends.

## Trivia

* She is named after both of her Ozian Parallels, *Ozma* of Oz and Glinda the *Good Witch.*
* Her personal diary is named Frank. According to the entry, it's because Ozma wants to be *frank* with it, but it's also a reference to the writer of the Oz series, L. Frank Baum.
* She has deuteranopia or red-green colourblindness, causing Ozma to see everything in shades of yellow or blue. This is both a reference to the Yellow Brick Road and the Emerald City. Casey consulted their friend Keegan on writing this element.
* Ozma is the 42nd Goodwitch as a reference to the science fiction novel The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
* Her birthday is July 30th, the day the book Ozma of Oz was released.
* Ozma's skin has reddish-brown hair, but Casey draws her with dirty blonde hair.
* She does not know how to swim and is especially embarrassed by this.
* Ozma uses metaphor, simile, and figures of speech often due to the fact she spends most of her time reading. This makes it difficult to communicate with the very literal M43.

* Ozma would really like to learn to beatbox.
* M43-8R34K's creator, Mae, and Ozma's creator, Casey, have been best friends since they were thirteen.
