The Student Witch is an enemy in the Castlevania series. She is an immature witch-in-training who is still learning how to cast spells properly and can sometimes land her broomstick without crashing.

Description[]

Witches who have not completely mastered the art of flying or landing their broomsticks. They often have shaky takeoffs and crash to the ground. When on the ground, they will take their broomsticks and whack their opponents with it. They are also accompanied by cat familiars or may turn into one on defeat.

Appearances[]

Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow[]

First appearance of the Student Witch in the series, being a common enemy in this game. She has two kinds of attacks: the first is hitting with her broom, and the second is summoning a cat. The damage dealt by her cat is half as strong as that by physical contact or broom. When killed, she will transform into a harmless cat and scurry away.

Acquiring her soul, Cat's Run, will allow Soma to summon and send cats forth (up to five on screen, with the probability of ⅛ being spawned as a kitten).

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow[]

The Student Witch is fairly similar in appearance to the last game. Likewise, her soul allows Soma to summon a cat which runs across the ground, damaging anything in its path.

She's also weak to Persephone's vacuum and Spin Devil's tornado, which sucks up her skirt.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin[]

Student Witches appear exactly as they did in Dawn of Sorrow, although they're often encountered in numerous groups this time around and sometimes accompanied by a normal Witch (or several Harpies), who apparently is their leader or their teacher.
