Magica Madoka Veneficus Puella


Magica Madoka Veneficus Puella is an ongoing Puella Magi Madoka Magica fanfic by The Moiderah of Writing on Fanfiction.net. It follows an Alternate Continuity in which Homura dies fighting Walpurgis Nacht, and Madoka wishes for a world in which her friends can survive.

She gets it.

Now, not only are the Puella Magi (now called Veneficus Puella) and the witches more powerful; the Muggles are now fully aware of the whole system, there is internal conflict between the Incubators, and the magic system has been turned on its head. Both Madoka and Homura are the only ones completely unaware of the new changes, and have to adapt. Fast.

Notable for having an author who may or may not be One of Us. [1]

And a warning from God himself, DO NOT READ THIS FICTION UNTIL YOU HAVE FINISHED THE SERIES. THIS FANFICTION CONTAINS HEAVY SPOILERS FOR EVERYTHING UP TO EPISODE TEN.

Now has a Spacebattles thread.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand now a second one.


Tropes used in Magica Madoka Veneficus Puella include:
  • Adult Fear: When Homura goes apeshit, guess what everyone, including Madoka's mother, sees? Images of her dying. Over and over again. And she can't do anything to stop it.
    • Worse when you remember that one of those "deaths" was a Mercy Kill wherein Homura was asked by Madoka to shoot her Soul Gem to prevent her turning into a witch. Imagine watching your child in pain and just begging to die, not to mention Madoka ended up turning into a witch in some timelines.
  • All According to Plan: Just when things are going smoothly for the heroines, the Incubators hatch a plan to manipulate Madoka and EnBey into forcing Homura to become a Veneficus Puella. The result? Madoka is incapacitated in battle, and Homura, filled to the brim with guilt for being unable to protect Madoka past and present, unleashes destructive powers beyond EnBey's control. Plus the Incubators may very well have a better source of energy to exploit.
    • And if Word of God is something to follow by, this may have been canon!Kyubey's intent all along when he had to pick a universe to drop Madoka and Homura into way back in the beginning.
  • All There in the Manual: See Spacebattles thread.
  • Alternate Universe: Subverted and Deconstructed. Madoka and Homura still remember the old world, and they have to learn how to roll with the punches. Quickly.
  • And I Must Scream: Some of the Remnants, witches who manage to sort of regain human form, are perfectly aware of their situation, while being unable to think clearly enough to act.
  • Apocalypse How: If Homura becomes a witch, it'll be an X-3+ at least (a good chunk of the universe is destroyed), provided that she isn't stopped. Same thing could easily happen if she contracts with EnBey and Madoka dies.
    • VP!Homura nearly caused a Class 0 at absolute minimum, but thanks to Madoka Taking A Level In Warrior Therapist, she was pulled back from the Despair Event Horizon and banished her demons.
    • Word of God states "VP!Homura can destroy several universes if she wants to.", putting her squarely as potential X-5.
    • Recently, something along the lines of an X-4 seems to have happened in the original universe Madoka and Homura were from, with their alternates paying the price.
  • Apocalypse Maiden: Homura in the VP!-verse, Sayaka becomes one in the original PM-verse.
  • Author Avatar: EnBey, if this Spacebattles post is any indication.
  • Badass Adorable: Homura, who's got her glasses back.
    • Madoka, who can now spam crossbows.
  • Badass Normal: Guess who was?
    • Junko now seems to have taken up the void
  • Berserk Button: Do not harm Madoka in any way, or Homura will hurt you. EnBey is not exempt from this.
    • Same with Yoshio and Sayaka.
  • Brought Down to Normal: Homura. It doesn't inconvenience her very much.
  • Break the Cutie: Thought Sayaka got a raw deal in the original? In this fic, she was broken before the damn thing even began. It Gets Worse. She might be better off for it.
    • Yoshio Kiyomizu, the saved/recovered human remnant of witch Elly.
  • Broken Bird: VPuniverse!Madoka, being transported to a canon universe and undergoing the same process that Homura did in canon, for Sayaka's sake.
  • Butt Monkey: The News Crew. The poor guys can't ever seem to get a break.
  • Calling Your Attacks: Mami, as taught by Kazuko.
    • And Sayaka who uses Irish for the naming of her moves. Madoka uses French.
  • Canis Latinicus: "Magica Madoka Venificus Puella" means "Magical Madoka [evil, lit. poisonous] Magic Girl". With "magic" as a noun, this kills the grammar--making the title make exactly as little sense as the original, reflect the world as it is post-wish, and just plain sound cool.
    • Fridge Brilliance: There is no denying that the title is worded wrongly. However, take a moment to take a look at the order of the words, and compare it with the original title. The title of this fanfic is a Sdrawkcab Title, which makes reference to how everything in this continuity has been figuratively turned upside down!
      • Fridge Horror: Veneficus Puella can be translated to mean "wizard girl", or more simply "witch". In fact, the feminine form of veneficus does mean witch.
  • Cast Full of Gay / Everyone Is Bi: Only two-three people are confirmed lesbians... but every other female with a decent appearance is either bi or lesbian (with the exception of Yoshio, but only because we don't know yet).
  • Cloudcuckoolander: The author, if the Author's Notes at the end are any indication:

"GREETINGS, FELLOWS. I AM NOT Brian Blessed, BUT I WILL TYPE LIKE JUST LIKE HOW HE SPEAKS, IN A LOVING HOMAGE TO A FINE SHAKESPEAREAN ACTOR."

"{{[[[Super Mario Land]] OBEY ME, MOIDERAH. I AM YOUR MASTER.}} GOOD WRITING IS YOUR ENEMY]"

Enbey: "I may be a tiny thingamabob, but there is no way in hell that I'm going to invade a little girl's home just to ask her a few questions. The thought's kind of creepy, really."

Tsk. Such a waste of our[mine{their flesh} bodies] energy...We[I{They}] do not appreciate this wasteful nature, EnBey.

"There's a wiki?" Oh, of course there was a wiki--it was PUBLIC.

  • X Meets Y: Madoka Magica meets Nobody Dies.
  • Yuri Fan: Junko, in spades. Her own daughter is not exempt from this. To a much lesser extent Hitomi (or well, from what we've seen. She definitely tries to push Sayaka/Madoka at one point).
  1. Oh, but he most certainly is.
