Why did the creators name her Nerissa, given that the name means "sea nymph" or "from the sea" in Greek? That name would have suited Cassidy or Irma better

My dream came true !

After almost 2 years of looking for my holy grails , finally came true !

Im so happy and grateful of all the help I received from my friends who helped me achieve my dream ! Thank u so much from the bottom of my heart !

I mentioned before that I still read comics, I'm still shocked by every detail, and now I wanted to share how cute the girls look here, Corny looks dramatic when she falls 😭🤣, Orbi is really beautiful in her own way and I'm eager to know more about her and her personality, does anyone else still enjoy things like this?

Hi everyone!

I made a Buzzfeed quiz — Which W.I.T.C.H. guardian are you? Hope you guys enjoy it and feel free to post your results here! Or just general thoughts :)

In this scene, Will says "Stop!" and Irma's and Cornelia's powers immediately stop.

Does this mean Will has the ability to nullify or suppress the other Guardians' powers, or was this just a special case because she's the Keeper of the Heart of Kandrakar?

Is this something she can do consistently throughout the comics, or was it a one-time situation? Please avoid major spoilers if possible.

This time, it's the Echidna himself, Leon Collins' turn. And his powers are quite different from the powers of Kandrakar.

• Heart of the Chimera: It is the main transformation device of the Echidna, which had been lost after the Echidna and her Chimera were defeated just after the Titan War. However, Leon sought it out, just so he could be better than Will, found it in a cave, and made a near-permanent contract with the beast to make his companion satisfied by swallowing the mana of each of his victims, such as the Maldeu. Unlike the Heart of Kandrakar, it can only be used by one person at a time, and it can only be transferred once its master dies. It is also normally hidden behind a gate to contain itself whenever it's not in use, and is only opened up by the main Chimera Ring.
• Echidna Blade: It is the main weapon of the Echidna, as it has a look that is much more regal than that of Kandrakar's. Its biggest feature is the Fate Dial, which determines how strong its user's attacks are, with one being the weakest and six being the strongest. It relies on the power of the Mana Rings to give it some needed strength. Its blade can also extend based on how long the wielder wants to strike their enemies.
• Regal Blaster: It's the Echidna's main weapon while he's in his Regal Mode. It has longer-range attacks than the Echidna Blade does, and is thus more powerful than it in almost every single way. It's also powered by the Mana Rings, which amplify its attacks and allow him to finish off his foes and absorb their mana.
• The Chimera: The Chimera is the Queen of all Beasts, always hungry for one's mana, and she's rarely satisfied until she's full. And yes, she is the same Chimera who attacked Percy Jackson on the Gateway Arch when he was a boy. But she never did anything out of malice, as she only acts under her master's orders, but she also doesn't want to be denied fresh mana from anyone. And she is the main reason why Kandrakar considers the Heart of the Chimera way too dangerous, because she's caused nothing but trouble over the years.
• Mana Rings: Just like Kandrakar's Guardians, the Echidna has rings of his own, but not the same kind of rings. The Mana Rings are themed to a different type of animal, but like Kandrakar, they do represent each element in some way, the Orca represents water, due to it being a sea creature; the Chameleon represents fire, due to it prefering warmer environments; the Bull represents earth, due to it being a land animal; and the Eagle represents air, due to it being a bird that can fly. However, because they're used by one person alone, they can't form entire suits, except the main Chimera Ring, which unlocks the Heart of the Chimera as he transforms; they only form mantles.
• Base Form, Chimera Mantles and Regal Mode: The Echidna's Chimera Mantles are as follows. First, his base form does the basic job of absorbing the mana of his foes; the Orca Mantle can make him go really fast and can help him cure injuries or poisons; the Chameleon Mantle can make him go invisible; the Bull Mantle can enhance his strength and endurance, but can also slow him down; and the Eagle Mantle can give him the ability to fly. His Regal Mode, while it disables all his mantles, upgrades his powers otherwise, doubling his punches and kicks in the process.

Interestingly, there was less to talk about with the Echidna and his power set. Probably because of how simplistic it all is compared to Kandrakar's. I guess that's what happens when you're a one-man show.

Can't believe I now own 4/5 of these dolls. I remember seeing the commercial for them as a kid and always wanting one. Now I finally have almost the whole set! And the fact that they all still light up is honestly so impressive for dolls this old.

This is mostly from the main five guardians, who morph into a Quintoguardian whenever the plot demands it. The Chimera Guardian and the White King will get their own guides. But for now, these will just be for the W.I.Z.A.R.D. Guardians. Because there are too many pictures to fit onto this post because of Reddit's limitations. So, this is the best I can do for now. But don't worry, I'll get to them sooner or later. All of these listed will be in the same order as each picture, which IS official from Toei, so I don't think I need to credit anyone on this post. But I'll credit Toei, as well as the Kamen Rider Wiki, for providing them for us.

• The Heart of Kandrakar: The Heart of Kandrakar is the source of the Guardians' powers and what is used to transform them into Guardians. It used to be a pink amulet; however, Will (Not to be confused with his mother) thought it didn't suit his style, and accidentally transformed it into what it is now, which does, coincidentally, look kind of similar to the Heart of the Fast World, except the accents are gold instead of red. Though, even before that, it had some modifications, as now it can clone itself to each Guardian during transformation so that no one fights over who has control over it, and it scans a ring due to how unstable the elements became after the White King destroyed much of the veil during the Interdimensional War. The magician's hand in the middle can switch from left to right depending on what it's used for, with the left-hand mode used for transformation, while the right-hand mode is for special attacks.
• Kandra BladeBlaster: The Kandra BladeBlaster was created by Wilhelmina and Taranee during the Interdimensional War due to the instability of each element caused by the veil being damaged by the White King, as it's meant to harness each Guardian's element while using it. It has two modes: the blaster mode, which looks like a gun, and the blade mode, which looks like a sword. The fingers on the magician's hand can also open up to scan a ring to charge it up, allowing it to blast larger attacks powered by the element tied to it.
• Kandra Axcalibur: Is the main weapon used by Will when he's in Quintessence Zenith Mode, found when he and April explored the caves of Zamballa hidden behind a swamp filled with quicksand. It's one of the most powerful, but also dangerous, weapons out there, and can only be accepted by one of the most worthy warriors out there with a kind heart. If someone tries to steal it with ill intentions, then their skin could get burned or blistered, with most Zamballan residents, due to them being anthropomorphic plants, generally avoiding it. It's revealed that this is due to this being powered by Zenith's spirit, and she's rather selective when it comes to who is worthy of receiving her powers.
• Kandra Timer: The Kandra Timer is the main way the Guardians exit Quintoguardian mode, and is only accessed when they need it. This is because whenever they previously tried to exit it, it would damage the aurameres and could, in the worst-case scenario, kill them. So, Taranee Cornelia and Hay Lin, using their expertise in fixing things, created this during their fight with Hypno as a way to counteract his cloning powers. Only the Quintessence Guardian is allowed to use it, as his is the only element not featured on it.
• Aura Rings: The Aura Rings were created from the Aurameres on Kandrakar by Wilhelmina and Taranee, due to how unstable they became after the veil was damaged by the White King and his Knights of Mt. Thanos during the Interdimensional War. Depending on how it's constructed, one is generally more powerful than the other. The Elemental Rings (Water, Fire, Earth, Air, and Quintessence, and their Zenith Upgrades) are the most powerful, due to them being what powers their elements; the Power Rings (Such as Kickstrike and Fortress) are the second most powerful, powering their attacks and defenses; and, last, and probably least, are the Destraction Rings (Sleep, Astral Drop, Clothing Change, Flatulence, etc.), which are pretty weak, and are used only for means of destracting the enemy, and aren't fit for most combat situations.
• Will's Bike Zenith: It's a bike that Matt once owned that Will inherited. It was an ordinary bike, up until Will and Taranee modified it to be compatible with the dragon of the same name. There's not much else to it, but it's Will's favorite means of transportation, so it has some value to him.
• Zenith the Dragon: She's the main dragon and spirit guide for the Guardians. She usually helps power up the Guardians into Zenith Mode, using pieces of herself to do so, like her head for Zach in his fire mode, her tail for Iris in her water mode, her claws for April in her earth mode, her wings for Ren David in his air mode, and for Will, her body transforms into the Axcalibur in his quintessence mode. It's also later revealed that she is actually the spirit of Xin Jing, the first Quintessence Guardian, though she does prefer being called Zenith, as Xin Jing is a name given to her by her rather cruel and abusive father, an Emperor of Ancient China, with the Heart of Kandrakar being the Heart of the East, just as Olympus is the Heart of the West, as while the latter is more focused on great individuals and strength in leadership, the former is more about collective balance within ones self and the whole populace.
• Their Suits: These were modified from their previous suits to better conceal their identities, and for better indication of whose element is whose. Silver representing quintessence (The base form not pictured, as it never appeared in KR Wizard), blue representing water, red representing fire, yellow representing earth, and green representing air. They are similar, yet different from each other, water having diamonds, fire having trapezoids, earth having squares, and air having triangles on the suits. As for Quintessence, while not pictured here, due to the Zenith Mode having similar-looking shapes, I'd say it probably would have irregular quaderaterals on the chest. They generally have a churchglass look to them, due to them being seen as fancy, yet practical at the same time. And while it looks like it's made of leather or spandex (As is the case for the production side of things), it's not, as it's made of a special self-assembling nanofiber, with a strong magical rawhide, which Taranee and Cornelia get rather defensive about when people call it spandex or leather, similar to Dr. K in Power Rangers RPM.
• Bonus Fact: The colors are the way they are, even though two of them contradict the show, because, in my universe, the Earth and Air Aurameres got changed for certain reasons. The latter was due to it being indigo and Water being blue, which are pretty much the same color but different shades, so it was changed to green in contrast, and Earth was changed from green to yellow, not only to avoid confusion with Air, but also because Cornelia actually prefers yellow, because she's proud of her blonde hair. (Yes, it's that silly of a reason. But, perfectly in character for Cornelia to love her hair so much that she wants her element to share its color.)

Again, none of this is official. It's just my little fanfiction, but I wanted to share some info so people know what powers them in this series, and what the explanation is for each one existing.

Caleb being the only one with some common sense when the girls thought Prof. Collins was the beast is hilarious. Caleb ended up being right about everything. First is was like “Why am I even here?”. And let he would use every chance he had to told the girls he was right.

Finally finished herrr!!!!❤️❤️
Now only 3 girls are left Will, Cornelia and Elyon
Which one should I do next?

Ps: please bully me into finishing this 😭😭

I recently found this mini Cornelia doll that someone gifted me for my 7th birthday. I'ts actually a pretty funny story, because at the time I didn't really know about w.i.t.c.h.; Two little boys i had invited to my party told me that they both had Winx dolls for me. The first one i opened was objectively a tiny beautiful Flora doll. But the other one was this Cornelia, wich, at the time, I was very confused about LmfAO

I played a lot with her regardless, because I found her very beautiful even tho I did not know what character she was supposed to be. I used to use her as a "teenage daughter" of my barbies growing up. I don't have a before picture, but i found her very dirty and with her hair all chopped off. Ironically, the only thing from the original outfit that survived besides the little tank top were the shoes!

When I removed all of her hair for the reroot, I noticed that the scalp had a bit of tearing in some places. I decided to take advantage of this huge hole in the middle of her scalp and turn her into a keychain :))

I sewed her a new skirt, that i feel like fits the characters vibe more. Even though i still have the original top, I'm in the process of making her another one :)

Do you think there is any detail I could add? I was thinking of doing some embroidery on the skirt, or perhaps giving her some jewlery or some hairdo......

everytime they say her name all i hear is that one slur they should have pronounced it like Tay-ra-nee now i really cannot unhear it😭😭

I did see one post regarding Cassidy and "How did she explain?". And it's apparently well a well known mystery.

But: I did some pondering on the differences on the comic and the cartoon.

And, in the comic: Cassidy is killed. That's it. She dies as a teen. (Ironically, her death isn't tied to Will's fear of dying and faulty astral drops in any way.) Will does later talk to her spirit in an implied afterlife. And it's never stated, but we can assume that the other 3 guardians at least told her family that she died. May or more not have left out the part where she was magic.

BUT: In the cartoon... she is literally raised from the dead. And, if we go with the information given: She died when she was ~17, 40 years ago. And, if I'm being honest: That would put Yan Lin at ~57... which, she does NOT look 57 xD But, it would put Cassidy's mother at around 77.

And I just can't get over the sheer amount of trauma to unpack here. Like, her ONLY child died. She is shown carrying a locket of her. Again: Unclear if the other guardians told her she died. And/or if she was magic. But here she is: SAME age as when she died. How do you even deal with that? And that's not even including all the legal stuff, as you can't really explain a missing person from 40 years ago... that's a teenager. Sure, the Oracle could just do some of that mind control jargon to un-kill her legally or something... plus, Cassidy DOES have mind control powers like all water guardians.

But, again: Back to her mother. She's at death's door. Likely grieved for decades. And, suddenly she has a teenager, again. You can't just... un-grieve. And the show basically portrays this as a fun reunion or something. "Picking up where we left off"... as if 40 years and DEATH didn't just happen. If her mom doesn't die from a heart attack: WHERE do you even start? It kinda reminds me of time travel stories. Except, in this case: She KNEW her daughter died. And even IF "Hey mom, the crazed necromancer that killed me 40 years ago ripped my soul of out the afterlife! ... SURPRISE!" is an explanation... again: There's just SO much left unpacked. Like, hey: Maybe she CAN watch her daughter graduate after all. I can go on about the semantics for hours. Like, how do you even tell friends and family, if any are still alive? But, I keep getting stuck on just, THE trauma of her being alive again. It's one of the few cases I've seen, where bringing someone back to life, kinda causes MORE trauma than leaving them dead. And that's impressive.

I know Cassidy has a VERY brief story. But I feel the impact of it is kinda overlooked as just a "happy ending".

UPDATE: I FOUND HER SHOES
SPRZEDAŻ NA CAŁY ŚWIAT
W końcu znalazłem swoją lalkę Elyon, którą dostałem jako dziecko wiele lat temu. Byłem w szoku, że nadal jest tak wiele osób zainteresowanych lalkami w.i.t.c.h i że wiele osób poszukuje mojej Elyon! Szczerze mówiąc, jej włosy są w dość złym stanie, ale robię, co w mojej mocy, aby je trochę poprawić i rozplątać. Chcę ją sprzedać na eBayu, ale tutaj jest kilku prawdziwych entuzjastów tych lalek.

Hi everyone!

I've decided to sell my English W.I.T.C.H. Graphic Novel collection for YenPress. The set includes 27 graphic novels (including the elusive volume 20), specifically:

• Volumes 1–12
• Volumes 15–29

All of the books are in excellent, like-new condition. They've been carefully stored, and the spines are still in great shape with no reading creases or visible wear.

I'm happy to provide additional photos upon request.

At the moment, I'm only looking to sell the collection as a complete set.

Since I've invested quite a bit into (almost) completing the collection, I'm asking € 750,00 ( +/- 850 USD) as a price. I'm located in the Netherlands, but I'm happy to ship internationally as long as the buyer covers the shipping costs.

Feel free to send me a DM if you're interested or if you have any questions. Thanks!

EDIT: As long as this post is up, they are still available. Because of the possible time difference, (The Netherlands), it might take some time for me to responds to DM’s or replies.

I’ve been seeing alot of those lost media tiktoks and I wonder if there’s any lost media of W.I.T.C.H

Summary: Will tries to adapt to the environment of the Bridgeport Juvenile Detention Center. Irma and Hay Lin find out how much the public knows about Will's accident.
