* MonsterClown: His Pineapple the Clown disguise radiates such a creepy menace that it's a relief when he assumes his true form.

An elemental monster sorceress that kidnapped Billy's mistakes [[Characters/MightyMorphinPowerRangersRangers Billy's]] date, Marge, under the mistake that she was for a Power Ranger.



* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Madam Woe appeared in the second half of ''Zyuranger'', but here, she appeared a few episodes before Tommy arrived.
* AdaptationSpeciesChange: She's an old friend of Rita's, presumably another alien sorceress. Dora Raiger was just another Dora Monster.
** Although it's implied that she was one of Finster's creations, presumably created some time before Rita and her henchmen were sealed in the dumpster and wandering the Earth until Rita summoned her.
* AttackItsWeakPoint: Her forehead jewel is both her strength and weakness. Once Billy crushed it, she was at the Ranger's mercy.
* CurbStompBattle: Madam Woe beats the ever-living tar out of Billy even with the power boost he received from the others. Even earlier on, the entire team couldn't land a good hit on her before Billy kicked her away. It's only thanks to a lucky leg sweep that Billy can remove her jewel and render her powerless.
* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: Her ''Zyuranger'' counterpart was destroyed with their Thunder Slingers, but because they were not introduced yet in ''Power Rangers'', she was destroyed by the Power Blaster.
* ElementalPowers: Can control the wind, rain, heat, and cold through her jewel.
* PrehensileHair: Woe can use her long braids like grapples.
* VillainsWantMercy: After the Rangers form the Power Blaster, she tearfully says, "woe is me!" and puts her arm up to shield herself from the blast. It doubles as an OhCrap moment.

* PrehensileHair: FlashbackMontageRealization: In "[[Recap/MightyMorphinPowerRangersS1EP29IslandOfIllusionPart2 Island of Illusion Part II]]," when Billy begins to vanish because he thinks he's failed the team despite his intelligence, it is recalling his fight with Madame Woe that allows him to regain his confidence and avoid fading away.
** MythologyGag: When Quagmire tries to help remind Billy of his fight with her, he refers to Woe as "a nightmare queen" who fought Billy "in a land of dreams." His description is oddly less fitting of Madame Woe and seems to be referring more to Dora Raiger, her counterpart from ''Zyuranger'', who actually did capture children in their dreams.

* GlowingGem: Her crystal glows each time she uses its power.

* InnocentBystander: Marge gets captured by Madame Woe because she's waiting to meet Billy at the park, where Rita told Woe that she could find him.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Madame Woe's theme sounds oriental.
* LightningLash: She can send electric bolts through her braids, which she uses to electrify Billy during their one-on-one.
* MakingASplash: In her alternate dimension, she manipulates a small pool of water to spray the Rangers with a firehose-like stream.
* MistakenIdentity: She captures Marge because Rita had told her that one of the Rangers would be at the park at 4:00 (as Billy had plans to meet Marge there). When Madame Woe arrives, Marge is the only one there, so she assumes she's the Ranger Rita spoke of.
* MysteriousPast: Madame Woe's origins aren't entirely clear. At the start of the episode, Rita tells [[Characters/MightyMorphinPowerRangersVillains Finster]] to start work on her, but the first time we see her, she's already alive and treated as a separate entity that Rita calls upon.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: She's clearly more human-like and has an ethereal quality to her compared to Finster's usual brutish, beast-like monsters.
* OhCrap:
After the Rangers form the Power Blaster, she tearfully says, "woe fearfully says "Woe is me!" and puts her arm up to shield herself from the blast. It doubles blast.
* PlayAsABoss: She's one of the playable characters in the [[UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis Sega Genesis]] ''Mighty Morphin Power Rangers'' fighting game.
* PocketDimension: Madame Woe's most notable ability is to use her crown jewel to send people to another reality known
as an OhCrap moment.the Blue Dimension filled with dead trees and mist, which is what Rita calls upon her for. A good deal of the fight between her and the Rangers takes place there.
* PowerCrystal: The blue jewel in Madame Woe's forehead is the source of her powers. She also able to make the Rangers burst with sparks just by making the crystal glow.

* {{Pun}}: "Woe is me!"
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: In the Sega Genesis game, her name is spelled "Madam Woe," while on her trading card, it's correctly spelled "Madame Woe."
* WolverineClaws: Madame Woe's finger nails are long and sharp to the point that they look like knives and they're sturdy enough to slash the Rangers.
* {{Valkyries}}: With her horned crown, flowing robes, and long hair braids, Madame Woe seems quite reminiscent to the common "viking opera singer" depiction of Valkyrie Brünnhilde from Music/RichardWagner's ''[[Theatre/TheRingOfTheNibelung Der Ring des Nibelungen (The Ring of the Nibelung)]]''.
* VillainousFriendship: Whether Madame Woe is a MonsterOfTheWeek or a separate, sentient being, Rita seems to hold a certain amount of respect for her, asking for her involvement in getting rid of the Rangers as a favor, rather than simply ordering her to do so.
