Well that took a while. I had to change a lot of code to get MC working right.
I couldn't do some of the stuff I wanted to with the attacks because it wouldn't work out when mirrored for the playable version, but oh well.
Her attacks could use some explanation.
Her chanting attack hits the square that has the same number as the enemy's last digit of their HP, or hits four panels around the middle if the last digit is zero.
Her hand raising attack does one of four effects based on the last digit of her enemy's HP.
0-2: Heal self for 20 percent
3-5: Damage enemy for 15 percent
6-7: Next attack of hers that hits does double damage
8-9: Next attack that hits her does half damage
And her finisher straight up halves her enemy's HP.
YAY, SHINY.
Although...the plain black arithmetic attacks don't really fit with the shiny fireslinging of the rest of the characters. I wonder if I can find you something that's both mathy and colourful....
Like...maybe some Fractals:

Or some MC Escher stuff:

Or...hell, I did my master's thesis in topology, which generally doesn't look as sexy, but there's still some Klein Bottles and Moebeus Strips and Knot Theory that are kind-of iconic...

Not a requirement, or anything, just...in-case you want something other than plain black ASCII characters for attack sprites while still being in-theme for math attacks.
