Appearance: here, and here in her puella magi outfit
Personality:

Madoka Kaname is described as a 'good girl' who 'always tries hard to do what is right'. And this pretty much hits the mark exactly. She has a strong sense of right and wrong, though it may not be the same belief in justice that her friend Sayaka has. More than anything, Madoka is opposed to suffering and despair, and she treasures hope above anything else. She's quick to trust, especially when it comes to talking with someone in need of help, like Kyubey or even Mami. Honest and straightforward and always wearing her heart on her sleeve, she tends to assume that everyone has the same good intentions that she does... but this tends to backfire on her when they don't.

Though she has a powerful moral compass, Madoka herself used to be an extremely timid and hesitant girl. As much as she loves her friends and family, she had always thought of herself as a useless person of no worth and talent. Her biggest fear was going through life as someone who would only burden others and never be able to help anyone. Coincidentally enough, Madoka's low self-esteem gives her a selflessness that actually does more harm than good. She's the kind of person who would sell her own soul to save that of a friend's, and tries multiple times to do this to help Sayaka in canon during her downhill spiral into despair. And, despite being convinced of her uselessness, she keeps tagging along with Sayaka and Mami in their witch patrols to aid them in any way she could, and later accompanies Kyoko into Oktavia's witch barrier in what seems to be a mission destined to fail. Her friends are so precious to her that when things go wrong, her first instinct is to blame herself for being too weak and cowardly to make a difference. Even if there's almost nothing she could have done, she's overwhelmed with survivor's guilt after Mami's death, and this crippling trauma only worsens with Sayaka's and Kyoko's. Unfortunately, when she's being specifically baited into becoming a puella magi, her urge to protect her friends and the trauma that results when she fails can be very easily manipulated to persuade her to contract with Kyubey.

Ironically enough, contracting with Kyubey and becoming a puella magi is one of the only ways Madoka is able to let go of her self-doubt. As a magical girl, Madoka is a confident and reassuring person who is proud of her ability to fight witches and save people. After realizing her own self-worth, she comes to an understanding of the worth and good in all people. Madoka has always been a friendly person, but puella magi Madoka is much more willing to reach out and offer help to anyone in need. In particular, she sees a lot of herself in Homura Akemi when they first met. She constantly tries to validate and compliment Homura and give her some faith in herself, even as she was struggling both academically and physically in school. As someone who used to fear that she could never be of use to anyone, Madoka's proudest moment is saving Homura from the suicidal influence and familiars of the witch Izabel, and this precious memory is one that she uses to give herself the strength to face down Walpurgis Night.

Despite how different puella magi Madoka might appear pre- and post-contract, she's still the same girl underneath it all. She enjoys the simpler things in life, like rare sweets and drawing frilly outfits and petting cute stray cats. Unlike almost all of her other friends, she always tries to be understanding and nonjudgmental of others, despite how questionable their first impressions may be. Having puella magi powers doesn't change her core personality. Even with magic at her disposal, she's still a pacifist at heart and only wants people to get along, no matter how impossible that seems. As a mediator, she tries constantly to smooth things over between the other members of her puella magi team, though it's practically second nature for magical girls to distrust each other. In the end, despite her nonconfrontational approach, she acts quickly and decisively to protect those she loves... even if it comes down to killing a friend to do it.

Madoka ultimately loves not only her friends and family, but, eventually, herself as well. But even more than that, she loves the world. Nobody deserves to die a despairing, hopeless death. To protect that belief, she's more than willing to give up her life in countless timelines, and finally her very existence, to fight for the people she cares for: everyone.

Abilities:

Madoka is a puella magi, which funnily enough is a superhuman capability that was given to her by an alien! not many of her abilities are shown, however. these are the ones that are!

  • magic arrows. Madoka has a rose-styled bow as her puella magi weapon and can fire magical missiles, sometimes multiple shots at once. even though she says she's still a beginner, she's pretty skilled with this attack, which is strong enough to shatter a soul gem and kill another puella magi in a single hit.
  • increased stamina/conditional invulnerability. due to the nature of the soul gem, a puella magi's body is strengthened to withstand greater pain so that they could continue to battle even after a normal human being would have been incapacitated. canon doesn't specify how far this can go, but Madoka will have to keep her soul gem close to her at all times to function (within 100 meters or so). destroying the gem would kill her. she'll also require grief seeds (witch 'eggs', dropped after a witch is defeated) to purify her soul gem, which loses energy as she uses magic or starts giving into despair.
  • world-destroying magical potential. Madoka is a 'naturally gifted' puella magi who's considerably stronger than many other magical girls. when Homura makes a wish to turn back time and save Madoka, she became the focus of numerous worlds and timelines and accumulated a world-ending amount of magical potential. If her soul gem is drained and she doesn't replenish it with grief seeds, Madoka would turn into a witch so powerful that it would destroy the planet in less than ten days.
