Kelly and Buddy Quinn's grandmother, and Scott Quinn's mother. She was once a protector of the Cookbook along with Ida Perez and Gina Silvers. Although she was a decent protector, the book would soon start to tear the girls apart as time passed and they grew up. She tried to destroy the book for the safety of someone else who might come across it, but the book ended up cursing her in response and making her emotionless and empty inside, which would affect her family a lot.

Although there has been the rare occasion when she stands her ground and berates someone, and it's not pretty. Chuck Hankins being a notable example of a victim. Grandma Quinn may be a loyal and open relative/companion but she's no pushover.
* DoesNotLikeMagic: She was not happy to see the cookbook again as she saw it as what drove the original trio apart and as a danger to her family. She wanted to avoid having her granddaughter cooking again.
* EmotionlessGirl: Part of her original curse.
* EmptyShell: Her personality as this is the main plot point of Season 1.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She has blonde hair and she's very loving, caring and protective over her family.

* MyGreatestFailure: She really regrets the way she had used her morbium seed to end her, Ida and Gina's protector era without consulting them, after a fight between them got out of had. Plus it took away any chance of Ida and Gina being able to reverse their curses and live normal, happy lives.
* NeverMessWithGranny: She will do just about anything to protect her son, daughter-in-law, and grandkids from any harm. She especially cares about Kelly's safety and will fight anyone to tries to harm her.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Of the [=OCs=] trio back in the 60s, and continues to serve this role even to this day. Ida's a self-serving trickster and a ManipulativeBitch and Gina's a SeniorCreep who can hold one serious grudge. But Becky? She's just a sweet, innocent old woman who only wants what's best for those around her and doesn't want any part in dangerous, harmful magic. She's the friendlist and most open member of the trio, and far more willing to forgive than either of her partners.

The owner of the self-titled cafe "Mama P's" As a former protector of the cookbook,
* AllThereInTheManual: According to the General Trivia section on Prime Video, Mama P has never missed a day of work because she would use magic to make herself feel better whenever she was ill.
** Her secret spice cabinet was built in the early 1970s back when she first opened Mama P's.
* AntiHero: Two-faced, manipulative and not afraid to cause harm to her opponents, she ends up becoming this after joining the heroes.

* BenevolentBoss: She's a polite and generous boss to her top employee Jake, and she genuinely cares about and loves him.
%% BigFun
* BrainyBrunette: Her hair is dark brown, and not only is she a smart and powerful magic mentor, she's also a master manipulator who can play just about anybody -- magic or no.
* ClosedCircle: Her curse throughout the first season is that she can't leave Saffron Falls no matter how hard she tries to. Although she does manage to break the curse in the season finale.
* ConsummateLiar: Oh yeah, she's particularly infamous for lying and scheming on a regular basis. For her, manipulation and lying are like breathing. That's how often she does it.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She may lie about a lot of things, and [[PlayingTheVictimCard play the victim card]] a couple of times, but one thing she's doesn't fake: Her caring side for her closest employee Jake. She'd take some of his advice to heart, and even try to change her ways if she has to, but she still desires Jake's respect and loyalty, especially after the tragedy that struck her actual family.
* EvilOldFolks: She turns out to have been using the girls as part of her plan to break her curse, not caring about whether anyone gets hurt in the process. Plus, she's in her mid-60s. Don't worry, she goes through a HeelFaceTurn and goes back to being a CoolOldLady.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She may be self-serving, manipulative, and perfectly willing to use people to her own advantage, but she'll still genuinely support the team when there's a serious threat.
* ManipulativeBitch: Notably within the first season, where she acts as an ally to the girls, when really she's using them to help break to long-lasting curse, and close down all the competing food areas. In fact, she's so skilled at manipulation, that not even the heroes always know when to trust her.
* ReformedButNotTamed: Even after her "redemption" in Season 2, she would still show shades of manipulation and ruthlessness.
* ScrewPolitenessImASenior: She shows shades of this trope time and time again as she often refuses to acknowledge her mistakes and can hold one hell of a grudge.
* TokenEvilTeammate: While none of the OCs are devoid of flaws per see, Ida has the most corrupting factors and is the one who's most willing to cause harm.
* TricksterMentor: When she's tutoring Kelly in learning magic, she forces Kelly to do a bunch of seemingly pointless task around the cafe, which turns out to be a [[Film/TheKarateKid Mr. Miyagi-style]] of teaching, in showing her how putting just the right amount of normal ingredients in a meal, was just as important in putting magical ingredients into it. She even does a "tough love" kind of mentoring, by trapping Kelly in a barrier, via magic at one point, forcing Kelly to use her recently learned skills to get herself out.
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Zigzagged; She's well-known and beloved enough to become Saffron Falls' citizen of the year, but her good publicity goes straight out the window when her true nature is revealed, and she gives a harsh rant on how much she hates the people of the city. Although, she may have a good percentage of her fans back after she at least tries to give an apology to everyone.

* AllThereInTheManual: According to the Prime Video trivia area, Silvers was taught proper etiquette from her parents at an early age. Plus her mother was a classically trained pianist who always reminded Gina that good posture was key for playing piano.
* DarkIsNotEvil: She lives alone in a creepy house, is very frightening and antisocial, uses a crow to spy on the girls, and ultimately just wants to protect them.
** Also the crow appears less in the later seasons since the audience knows Silvers is a good woman.
* GoodAllAlong: She's built up as the main villain of Season 1, but turns out to be genuinely a caring lady.
* MisunderstoodLonerWithAHeartOfGold: Saffron Falls sees her as the creepy neighbor in the house. And she has to spend most of her time alone unloved. But she's very loving, supportive and well-meaning.
* ScrewPolitenessImASenior: Mainly throughout the first season, and occasionally in the later seasons. She would often scare people off with her cold and stern demeanor and refuse to help out Becky and Ida for petty personal reasons even if they had decent intentions.
* SeniorCreep: She's old and wrinkly and pretty hostile and anti-social, which scares a lot of people off.
* SternTeacher: She teaches piano lessons at her house (since the curse wouldn't let her play outside of the house), but she's a very stern, no-nonsense teacher who isn't afraid to belittle her students or kick them out if she feels they're not good enough. In fact, one of her students left crying. However, once Hannah improved at her piano playing skills, and she actually got to know her, [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold she was mainly stern because she wanted to help them, and share her knowledge.]]
* TeenGenius: When she was around the main girl trio's age, she was shown to have played in Carnegie Hall. Then sometime later while she's still young, she was a guest musician in the New York Philharmonic and performed ''Prélude'', ''Clair de Lune'', ''Menuet'', and ''Passepied''. Not to mention all of those music school master's degrees she had gotten. Unfortunately, thanks to her curse, she was unable to continue her career growing up and began to lose hope.

Ida's a self-serving trickster and a ManipulativeBitch and Gina's a SeniorCreep who can hold one serious grudge. But Becky? She's just a sweet, innocent old woman who only wants what's best for those around her and doesn't want any part in dangerous, harmful magic. She's the friendlist and most open member of the trio, and far more willing to forgive than either of her partners.
* WalkingSpoiler: It's hard to talk about her role throughout the first season without answering the season's DrivingQuestion.

The owner of the self-titled cafe "Mama P's" As a former protector of the cookbook,
* AllThereInTheManual: According to the General Trivia section on Prime Video, Mama P has never missed a day of work because she would use magic to make herself feel better whenever she was ill.
** Her secret spice cabinet was built in the early 1970s back when she first opened Mama P's.
* AntiHero: Two-faced, manipulative and not afraid to cause harm to her opponents, she ends up becoming this after joining the heroes.
* TheAtoner: She spends a good amount of the series trying to make up for her actions in the first season.
* BenevolentBoss: She's a polite and generous boss to her top employee Jake, and she genuinely cares about and loves him.
%% BigFun
* BrainyBrunette: Her hair is dark brown, and not only is she a smart and powerful magic mentor, she's also a master manipulator who can play just about anybody -- magic or no.
* ClosedCircle: Her curse throughout the first season is that she can't leave Saffron Falls no matter how hard she tries to. Although she does manage to break the curse in the season finale.
* ConsummateLiar: Oh yeah, she's particularly infamous for lying and scheming on a regular basis. For her, manipulation and lying are like breathing. That's how often she does it.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She may lie about a lot of things, and [[PlayingTheVictimCard play the victim card]] a couple of times, but one thing she's doesn't fake: Her caring side for her closest employee Jake. She'd take some of his advice to heart, and even try to change her ways if she has to, but she still desires Jake's respect and loyalty, especially after the tragedy that struck her actual family.
* EvilOldFolks: She turns out to have been using the girls as part of her plan to break her curse, not caring about whether anyone gets hurt in the process. Plus, she's in her mid-60s. Don't worry, she goes through a HeelFaceTurn and goes back to being a CoolOldLady.
* ExBigBad: She pulls a HeelFaceTurn in Season 2 a becomes an AntiHero towards her closest allies, though they're not very eager to forgive her.
%% * FatBitch
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: The girls and the other OCs would occasionally show that they don't always like being around her.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She may be self-serving, manipulative, and perfectly willing to use people to her own advantage, but she'll still genuinely support the team when there's a serious threat.
* ManipulativeBitch: Notably within the first season, where she acts as an ally to the girls, when really she's using them to help break to long-lasting curse, and close down all the competing food areas. In fact, she's so skilled at manipulation, that not even the heroes always know when to trust her.
* ReformedButNotTamed: Even after her "redemption" in Season 2, she would still show shades of manipulation and ruthlessness.
* ScrewPolitenessImASenior: She shows shades of this trope time and time again as she often refuses to acknowledge her mistakes and can hold one hell of a grudge.
* TokenEvilTeammate: While none of the OCs are devoid of flaws per see, Ida has the most corrupting factors and is the one who's most willing to cause harm.
* TricksterMentor: When she's tutoring Kelly in learning magic, she forces Kelly to do a bunch of seemingly pointless task around the cafe, which turns out to be a [[Film/TheKarateKid Mr. Miyagi-style]] of teaching, in showing her how putting just the right amount of normal ingredients in a meal, was just as important in putting magical ingredients into it. She even does a "tough love" kind of mentoring, by trapping Kelly in a barrier, via magic at one point, forcing Kelly to use her recently learned skills to get herself out.
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Zigzagged; She's well-known and beloved enough to become Saffron Falls' citizen of the year, but her good publicity goes straight out the window when her true nature is revealed, and she gives a harsh rant on how much she hates the people of the city. Although, she may have a good percentage of her fans back after she at least tries to give an apology to everyone.

-->'''Played By''': Creator/EllenKarsten; Creator/HarperQuaintance (young)
* AllThereInTheManual: According to the Prime Video trivia area, Silvers was taught proper etiquette from her parents at an early age. Plus her mother was a classically trained pianist who always reminded Gina that good posture was key for playing piano.
* DarkIsNotEvil: She lives alone in a creepy house, is very frightening and antisocial, uses a crow to spy on the girls, and ultimately just wants to protect them.
** Also the crow appears less in the later seasons since the audience knows Silvers is a good woman.
* GoodAllAlong: She's built up as the main villain of Season 1, but turns out to be genuinely a caring lady.
* MisunderstoodLonerWithAHeartOfGold: Saffron Falls sees her as the creepy neighbor in the house. And she has to spend most of her time alone unloved. But she's very loving, supportive and well-meaning.
* ScrewPolitenessImASenior: Mainly throughout the first season, and occasionally in the later seasons. She would often scare people off with her cold and stern demeanor and refuse to help out Becky and Ida for petty personal reasons even if they had decent intentions.
* SeniorCreep: She's old and wrinkly and pretty hostile and anti-social, which scares a lot of people off.
* SternTeacher: She teaches piano lessons at her house (since the curse wouldn't let her play outside of the house), but she's a very stern, no-nonsense teacher who isn't afraid to belittle her students or kick them out if she feels they're not good enough. In fact, one of her students left crying. However, once Hannah improved at her piano playing skills, and she actually got to know her, [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold she was mainly stern because she wanted to help them, and share her knowledge.]]
* TeenGenius: When she was around the main girl trio's age, she was shown to have played in Carnegie Hall. Then sometime later while she's still young, she was a guest musician in the New York Philharmonic and performed ''Prélude'', ''Clair de Lune'', ''Menuet'', and ''Passepied''. Not to mention all of those music school master's degrees she had gotten. Unfortunately, thanks to her curse, she was unable to continue her career growing up and began to lose hope.
