Lady of Black Magic: Difference between revisions

 

== Comic Books ==

 

 

* Melissandre the Red from ''[[A Song of Ice and Fire]]'' fits the personality aspect ({{spoiler|and becomes something of a mentor to Jon Snow during ''A Dance With Dragons''}}), but as part of a low-magic setting she's limited to soothsaying and summoning creepy shadows. Given that she's one of a handful of people to show outright supernatural abilities at ''all'', however, that says something.

* The White Witch in ''The [[Chronicles of Narnia]]: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe'' qualifies as well. She goes into battle wearing Aslan's mane as a pelt and fighting Florentine style with two swords and turning anyone who crosses her path into stone.

* Medea from ''[[The Icemark Chronicles]]''.

* Skuld, a half-elven sorceress from the 13th century ''[[The Saga of Hrolf Kraki|Saga of Hrolf Kraki]]''.
