Personality

Cyprine carries herself with open confidence, declaring herself and Ptilol the strongest of the Witches 5. Around the laboratory she makes a habit of flirting with Professor Tomoe, a display that leaves Kaolinite seething with jealousy, and she plainly relishes needling her that way. Unlike the rest of the group, she and her sister share no rivalry with any other member of the Death Busters.

History

Cyprine and Ptilol make their lone appearance in the season's 123rd episode. Their scheme is to herd the students of Mugen Academy toward the hidden statue of the Messiah of Silence buried within the school, using it to draw out their Pure Heart Crystals; the statue crumbles the moment the sisters are undone. In combat they present a fearsome problem, because whenever one of them absorbs an incoming attack through her staff, the pair's power only swells. The Senshi eventually solve the puzzle by baiting the two into firing on one another, and their destruction shatters the statue for good.

Beyond the blue blasts of her staff, Cyprine can mesmerize large crowds into surrendering their Pure Hearts, take to the air, and banish the guardians into a pocket dimension.
