Kapo

Kapo never apologised for her body, her magic, or her rage. She didn’t make herself smaller to survive – she transformed. She protected. She bled, birthed, defended, and healed. That’s not obscene. That’s divine.

In modern witchcraft, she’s rising again – not as a villain, but as a protector, an avenger, and a sacred force for anyone who’s ever been silenced or blamed.
