| 13 | |
| 14 | A con artist and stage magician, a tornado sends him to the Land of Oz. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | %% * ActionSurvivor |
| 17 | %% * AntiHero |
| 18 | * BadBoss: Has shades of this towards Frank, his long-suffering stage assistant and when Finley goes to shake his hand, Oz hands him his heavy luggage instead. |
| 19 | * BatmanGambit: [[spoiler:He knows the Wicked Witches still think he's a selfish, greedy fraud after he changes his ways, so he tricks them into helping fake his death by filling a hot air balloon with gold and setting it loose so they can destroy it along with his "mortal body", allowing him to take on his famous appearance as a projected head.]] |
| 20 | * BeardOfEvil: Sports one in order to project a mysterious and sinister image, though he's more of a Jerk. At least, [[TookALevelInKindness at first]]. |
| 21 | * CameBackStrong: [[spoiler:{{Invoked|Trope}}. He stages his own death so he can convince everyone, including the Wicked Witches, of his "rebirth" as "Oz, the Great and Powerful". Now, to interact normally, he dresses as a Palace Guard ("Horse of a Different Color" scene.)]] |
| 22 | * TheCasanova: He hits on practically every female character (with the exception of the China Girl, understandably). [[DeconstructedTrope This bites him in the ass]] when [[spoiler:Evanora mentions this trait to turn Theodora evil.]] |
| 23 | %% * TheCharmer |
| 24 | * TheChosenZero: The great and powerful wizard — is not a wizard at all. |
| 25 | * DeadpanSnarker: Quite frequently. |
| 26 | * DeathByWomanScorned: [[spoiler:{{Exploited|Trope}} this trope, as seen below.]] |
| 27 | * DidNotGetTheGirl: In the beginning, he doesn't wind up with the girl he's romantically interested in. In the end, this makes sense, since it's largely implied that the woman becomes Dorothy's mother. |
| 28 | * EveryoneHasStandards: He's a money-seeking con artist through and through but even he feels awful about having to lie to a paralyzed girl when she asks for his magic's help to walk again. |
| 29 | * FakingTheDead: [[spoiler:So he can take on the incorporeal form he would later be known for. He does so by having an angered witch blowing his decoy.]] |
| 30 | * FreudianExcuse: His father lived a perfectly normal life in Kansas and died on the job after years of working on a farm. Oscar considers his father a good man, but his desire for greatness stems from how he doesn't want to follow the same path and die face down in dirt. |
| 31 | * GuileHero: He bests his enemies purely through well-planned prestidigitation. |
| 32 | * HandsomeLech: Though it's a PG rated film, it's obvious that Oscar gets around quite a bit, and when he meets each of the witches, he doesn't stop. |
| 33 | * HeelFaceTurn: He gets better later in the film. |
| 34 | * HeelRealization: After the Wicked Witch of the West makes her first public appearance. |
| 35 | * IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: The reason he encourages Annie to marry the man who proposed to her. |
| 36 | * ItsAllAboutMe: He's so self-centered, it's amazing. |
| 37 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He really ''is'' a good man, but he simply doesn't realize it. |
| 38 | * JumpedAtTheCall: He accepts the idea of becoming the hero of Oz purely for [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking fame, fortune, and a chalice]]. |
| 39 | * KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler:He gets away with [[NiceJobBreakingItHero breaking Theodora's heart, which gets her turned into the Wicked Witch of the West]], even after Theodora outright says it in front of everyone. To his credit, much of Theodora's heartbreak was caused by Evanora's manipulations, and [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone Oscar does recognize it's at least partially his fault]].]] |
| 40 | * LadyKillerInLove: In spite of his rampant womanizing, it's made clear that he sees Annie as more than just another fling. |
| 41 | * LargeHam: While in front of a crowd, he's a lot more showy. [[spoiler:Of course, he's even more so after his apparent "death".]] |
| 42 | * LaserGuidedKarma: Experiences this when he finds out from Glinda that Evanora had played him like an accordion. You know, like he'd been doing to practically everyone else in Kansas, only with parlor tricks instead of real magic. |
| 43 | * LovableCoward: When his stage tricks don't work, he runs away. Granted, considering what he's up against, this is understandable. |
| 44 | * MrViceGuy: His self-centered attitude, womanizing habits, and greed make the worse part out of him but he wouldn't hesitate to help anyone after he lands in Oz after the tornado incident. |
| 45 | * TheManBehindTheCurtain: Come on, [[ForegoneConclusion you knew he'd do this]]. |
| 46 | * MasterOfIllusion |
| 47 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: Thanks to Oz's womanizing ways, [[spoiler:Theodora is heartbroken and susceptible to being corrupted by Evanora, eventually becoming the Wicked Witch of the West. To his credit, Oz does recognize that Theodora's fall to wickedness is at least partly his fault]]. |
| 48 | * TheNicknamer: "Flying Monkey" for Finley, "Wanda" for Glinda, "Sourpuss" for Knuck, and "China Girl" for, er, [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname China Girl]]. |
| 49 | * OverlyLongName: Oscar Zoroaster Phadrig Isaac Norman Henkel Emmannuel Ambroise Diggs. |
| 50 | * PapaWolf: To China Girl. |
| 51 | * PetTheDog: Even before discovering the goodness within his heart, Annie is the only person in Kansas he's both nice and 100% honest to. |
| 52 | ** While completely obsessed with getting his crown, gold, and chalice, even he will stop to help China Girl. |
| 53 | * RousingSpeech: Delivered just before the climax. |
| 54 | * ScienceHero: Combines technical know-how with a stage magician's tricks to intimidate the Wicked Witches into exile from the Emerald City. |
| 55 | * StageMagician: What he uses to show the people of Oz that he's a Wizard. |
| 56 | * ThouShaltNotKill: He's none too keen about having to kill anyone, even when he believes he absolutely has to to succeed. |
| 57 | %% * TookALevelInKindness |
| 58 | * UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: He seems to think this of himself, to some extent. |
| 59 | -->'''Glinda:''' It's a magic wall. Everyone who has a good heart can pass through it.\ |
| 60 | '''Oz:''' ''I'm gonna die!'' |
| 61 | * WeakButSkilled: He's basically a {{Muggle}} in a land where magic is more than just parlor tricks. He still ends up on top through use of said parlor tricks combined with charisma. |
| 62 | * WithFriendsLikeThese: He is constantly insulting towards his assistant, Frank, the only one at the circus that actually likes him and considers him a friend. Oscar rebuffs this by saying they're not friends at all. |
| 63 | * YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Glinda tells him this, it doesn't matter if he doesn't have powers and was once just a carnival conman, he now has the chance to make a real difference for her people. |
| 64 | ** Later on, after all his plans begins to come to fruition, Glinda makes it clear, that he is a great man after all. |
| 65 | -->'''Oz''': ''(with a slight chuckle)'' Cue the Conman.\ |
| 66 | '''Glinda''': ''(smiling)'' Would you stop, a conman couldn't do all this. You're much more than that. |
| 67 | * ZeroApprovalGambit: [[spoiler:During the final confrontation between the Wicked Witches, Oscar pretends to make a getaway in a hot air balloon with a bunch of gold, making everyone think he's abandoned them. Then, when Theodora shoots down his balloon and everyone believes he's dead, he works his stage magic and a video projector to make a grand comeback as the "true" Wizard of Oz, renewing everyone's hope and scaring the witches away.]] |

| 82 | * DragonAscendant: After [[TheCorrupter Evanora]] [[spoiler:transforms her into the Wicked Witch of the West]], the former becomes [[EvilIsNotAToy taken aback]] with [[spoiler:just how wicked Theodora has become]], and it soon becomes apparent that Theodora is the [[spoiler:more sadistic and ambitious of the two sisters, even expressing open contempt towards Evanora's cowardice when the latter turns tail and flees due to Oscar's deceptions]]. |
| 83 | * FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:No thanks to her sister using magic to turn her wicked.]] |
| 84 | * EvilMakesYouUgly: See above |
| 85 | * FourthDateMarriage: She's awfully quick to ask Oscar to make her his queen. |
| 86 | * GoodIsDumb: Theodora, while kind-hearted, is extremely naive and easily deceived and manipulated by both Oscar and Evanora. |
| 87 | ** Also inverted: when [[spoiler:Theodora eats the apple that makes her "wicked", she instantly realizes that Evanora was the one responsible for everything.]] |
| 88 | * HairTriggerTemper: Even as a good witch, she is awfully quick to get upset at certain things and start tossing fireballs. |
| 89 | * HellbentForLeather: Is first seen wearing some very nice, form-flattering leather pants. |
| 90 | * HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: She not only fails to catch on to Oscar's womanizing ways, but also the fact that Evanora is evil. |
| 91 | * HotWitch: She's quite pretty and is a magic user like her sister. |
| 92 | %% * TheIngenue |
| 93 | * LargeHam: Virtually every line after [[spoiler: she's turned wicked]] is delivered in the ''loudest'' scream Mila Kunis can perform, appropriate or not. |
| 94 | * LeaveNoSurvivors: Invokes this when she cuts off Evanora's address to the troops, contradicting her sister's order to let their enemies flee in terror. |
| 95 | * MoreThanMeetsTheEye: [[spoiler:Theodora is the Wicked Witch of the West.]] |
| 96 | * MsFanservice: She's Mila Kunis in leather pants. |

| 101 | * RedOniBlueOni: The red to Evanora's blue. Becomes even more evident [[spoiler:after she turns wicked]]. |
| 102 | * StartOfDarkness: A good chunk of this film is dedicated to how [[spoiler: The Wicked Witch of the West became wicked]]. |
| 103 | * TokenGoodTeammate: Compared to her sister's FauxAffablyEvil nature, she's a nice witch and generally wants to do some good. [[spoiler:Until her sister tricks her into eating the Wicked apple...]] |
| 104 | * UnwittingPawn: Of her own sister, who manipulates her [[spoiler: into turning evil]]. |
| 105 | * WickedWitch: [[spoiler: The nascent Wicked Witch of the West, to be exact.]] |
| 106 | * WideEyedIdealist: [[spoiler:To begin with...]] |
| 107 | * WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Incidentally, Evanora's potion not only causes Theodora to become wicked, but also allows her to unlock her full potential as a witch. Goes on to be an even more extreme version of this trope if she's anything like her Film/WizardOfOz counterpart. |

| 125 | * DarkIsEvil: Even while [[spoiler:disguising herself with a beautiful visage]], in comparison to a [[spoiler:pre-wicked]] Theodora and Glinda, she likes blacks and dark shades of green, and is the evilest of the bunch...until Theodora turns wicked herself. |
| 126 | ** SicklyGreenGlow: Her powers manifest as bright plasma glowing with green light, which is meant to represent pure darkness. |
| 127 | * DeliberatelyBadExample: She does with real magic what Oz does with his parlor tricks, and her status as a Wicked Witch makes Oz's own deceptive nature look 100% benign by comparison. |
| 128 | * DirtyCoward: Once she's convinced that Oz is the real deal, [[spoiler:she leaves her sister to deal with him as he starts to turn the tables on them]]. |
| 129 | * DoomedByCanon: You know that the Book and the 1939 movie has [[DroppedABridgeOnHim a house fall on her.]] |
| 130 | %% * EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette |
| 131 | * EvilChancellor: To the King of Oz, and later to Oscar. |
| 132 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler:She's quite visibly taken aback by Theodora's wickedness, particularly her decision to take no prisoners. It seems she's power-hungry instead of openly sadistic... except when it comes to Glinda.]] Upon seeing the [[spoiler:transformed Theodora, she offers to revert her physical appearance.]] |
| 133 | * EvilBrit: Speaks with a British accent, even though her sisters don't. |
| 134 | * EvilMakesYouUgly: [[spoiler:She's been evil for so long that she's even more hideous than her sister Theodora becomes. She hides it with her magic amulet.]] |
| 135 | * FauxAffablyEvil: She acts welcoming to Oscar, and portrays herself as a kind and loving sister to Theodora, while plotting both of their downfalls, and is the Wicked Witch spreading havoc and destruction across Oz, while framing Glinda for the crimes. |
| 136 | * TheHeavy: [[spoiler:Evanora is responsible for nearly every bad event that has happened in the film series. She killed the king of Oz and created the Wicked Witch of the West.]] |
| 137 | * HotWitch: [[spoiler:Though only thanks to the power of her magic amulet. Without it...]] |
| 138 | * LadyOfBlackMagic: She's quite elegant, and can generate powerful green lightning. |
| 139 | * KarmicTransformation: [[spoiler:Evanora's uglification when Glinda removes her necklace is a fitting karmic punishment for tricking Theodora into becoming a green-skinned witch.]] |
| 140 | %% * ManipulativeBastard |
| 141 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Evanora's face after [[spoiler:Theodora's fall]]. The fact that [[spoiler:Theodora will not accept any surrender and wants a full, genocidal attack seemed to scare Evanora.]] |
| 142 | * OhCrap: Had one [[spoiler:when the post-transformation Theodora revels herself being more wicked than what Evanora expected.]] |

| 146 | * SicklyGreenGlow: Evanora is a [[ShockAndAwe lightning witch]], but her lightning is sickly green. |
| 147 | * SmugSnake: Overconfident and arrogant, but the climax reveals that she is a coward at heart and much more easily rattled than [[spoiler: her sister.]] |
| 148 | * TrailersAlwaysSpoil: Her role as the BigBad was spoiled by trailers and posters. Then again, the movie doesn't treat TheReveal of her as the villain [[ObviouslyEvil like a big surprise]]. However, before the movie came out, everyone just assumed that Theodora was the main villain on account of her becoming the [[spoiler:Wicked Witch of the West]] -- that fact was leaked. While that did turn out to be true, Evanora's reveal as the definite Big Bad was cemented, ironically, with the creation of the Wicked Witch. |
| 149 | * TreacherousAdvisor: To the former king. |
| 150 | * UglyAllAlong: Evanora is as wicked as she is lovely... but [[spoiler:because EvilMakesYouUgly in this series, she actually looks like an old hag, and is using a magic pendant to hide her hideous form]]. |
| 151 | * VileVillainSaccharineShow |
| 152 | * VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:When Oscar starts using sleight of hands the likes of which she's never seen before (i.e., fireworks), she becomes fearfully convinced that he ''is'' a wizard after all.]] |

| 162 | |
| 163 | The Good Witch of the South who protects a small kingdom and helps guide Oscar onto a nobler path. |
| 164 | |
| 165 | * AdaptationDyeJob: Despite having red hair in both the book and the 1939 MGM film, Glinda is portrayed as a blonde. This might have been to avoid a lawsuit with MGM. |
| 166 | * AndYouWereThere: Her actress also plays Annie, [[TheOneThatGotAway an old flame of Oscar's]] who may or may not end up becoming Dorothy's mother.[[note]]She ends up getting engaged to a man named "Gale".[[/note]] |
| 167 | * BadassBoast: Also counts as a LetsGetDangerous moment. |
| 168 | -->"Bubbles are just for show." |
| 169 | * BarrierMaiden: Due to being WillfullyWeak most of the time, her powers are mostly manifested like this. |
| 170 | * BeautyEqualsGoodness: Zig-zagged, but ultimately Glinda is the only witch to remain beautiful throughout the entire film. |
| 171 | * BlowYouAway: Despite initially appearing to be a EvilIsDeathlyCold AnIcePerson, Glinda wields power over the winds, including using the iconic bubbles and creating fog. Connecting to this element, she is also calm and level-headed, as well as being defense-oriented. |
| 172 | ** LightEmUp: Her other magic. |
| 173 | * CompositeCharacter: She has a lot in common with Ozma from the books, notably being the daughter of the former king of Oz. This is confirmed in the novelization, where her father's gravestone names him Pastoria. |
| 174 | * CoolCrown: A tiara. |
| 175 | * DamselInDistress: She spends much of the film's climax captured and tortured by the Wicked Witches. [[DamselOutOfDistress When she gets free, she gets to show her stuff]]. |
| 176 | * DullSurprise: She consciously hides her emotions. |
| 177 | * FallenPrincess: Her father, the former King of Oz, was killed by Evanora, and she was run out of the Emerald City after Evanora framed her for {{Patricide}}, labeling her a Wicked Witch. |
| 178 | * FluffyFashionFeathers: The bodice and shoulders of her dress are decorated with white and silver feathers. |
| 179 | * GoodIsNotDumb: She sees through Oscar's facade, but lets him get away with it because she believes he can change, and because he's all they've got. Her faith in him is eventually vindicated. |
| 180 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold |
| 181 | * HeroWithBadPublicity: She's one of the kindest and most powerful good sorceresses in Oz, who is trying to liberate her father's people from the Wicked Witch's tyranny, but due to Evanora, the Emerald City view her as a Wicked Witch, responsible for murdering her father, and an enemy intent on destroying all of Oz. They grow out of it by the end of the film, finally seeing through Evanora's lies. |
| 182 | * HotWitch: According to Oz, probably the hottest out of the three. |
| 183 | * IncorruptiblePurePureness |
| 184 | * LastGirlWins: [[spoiler:Incidentally, [[AndYouWereThere her actress also plays]] TheOneThatGotAway.]] |
| 185 | * LetsGetDangerous: [[spoiler:During the final fight with Evanora.]] |
| 186 | * LightIsGood: She ain't the Good Witch for nothin'. |
| 187 | * PerpetualSmiler: Things have to be seriously jacked before she stops smiling. |
| 188 | * RegalRinglets: Fitting, considering she's the daughter of the previous king of Oz. |
| 189 | * SecretKeeper: She figures out Oscar is not a wizard pretty quick. [[spoiler:She is also one of the few to know of his FakingTheDead.]] |
| 190 | * SilkHidingSteel: So very much. |
| 191 | * SoProudOfYou: The Master Tinker assures her father would have been. |
| 192 | * SorceressQueen: After Oscar wins her kingdom back. Her father was also a powerful wizard. Oscar is not, but he uses his technical knowledge and stage magic to create this impression. |
| 193 | * TeamMom: Is maternal and loving to the people of her kingdom, especially the children. |
| 194 | * ThouShaltNotKill |
| 195 | * ToughLeaderFacade: With a touch of StepfordSmiler as well. Evanora's got more power and influence than her and she has to both protect her people and keep their hope for the Wizard prophesied by her late father to arrive, while still grieving for said father, so a lot of her PerpetualSmiler is an act. |
| 196 | * YouKilledMyFather: She has it in for Evanora for killing her father, the King of Oz. |

| 204 | A flying monkey who pledges his loyalty to Oscar. |
| 205 | |

| 207 | * BeleagueredAssistant |
| 208 | * DeadpanSnarker |
| 209 | * IOweYouMyLife: After Oscar saves him from vines and a lion, he swears to serve him for the rest of his days. He quickly comes to regret it when he finds out Oscar's not really a wizard. |
| 210 | * IResembleThatRemark: Finley gets mad when Oz offers him a banana. |
| 211 | -->'''Finley:''' Bananas? Oh, I see. Because I'm a monkey, I must love bananas, right? That is a vicious stereotype!\ |

| 227 | |
| 228 | * AndYouWereThere: Her actress also plays a girl in the wheelchair in Kansas who begs Oscar to make her walk. |
| 229 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: She's all too eager to "kill [themselves] a witch" after she convinces Oscar to let her go with him on a dangerous witch hunt, and she carries around a knife to do the job. This disturbs Oscar. |
| 230 | * BreakTheCutie: Quite literally, in this case. |
| 231 | * DisabilityImmunity: Although being made of fragile china is normally a liability, it ''does'' mean that [[spoiler: she doesn't need to breathe, which allows her to bring Glinda's wand back to her through the poppy fields.]] |
| 232 | * HowMuchDidYouHear: How she finds out Oscar's not the kind of wizard she thinks he is, as he tells it to Glinda in a fit of self-derision. Against his expectations, she takes it relatively well. |
| 233 | * InkSuitActor: Joey King's facial features are reflected with the China Girl, which also parallels the crippled girl who wishes to be able to walk but Oz cannot oblige. |
| 234 | * LastOfHerKind: In this interpretation of Oz, the China Girl is the sole survivor of the China Village, as the rest of her people were wiped out by [[spoiler:Evanora's]] flying monkeys. |
| 235 | * LittleMissBadass: She tells Oscar she's not as delicate as she appears. |
| 236 | * LittleMissConArtist: Can manipulate Oscar by turning on the waterworks. He seems to notice. |
| 237 | * MoralityPet: For Oscar. The first glimpse of his better nature is when he tries to comfort her in the shattered China Village and repairs her legs. |
| 238 | * NoNameGiven: She never introduces herself, and Oz calls her China Girl on the spot. It sticks. She is asked her name, but the audience never gets to learn it. |
| 239 | * OrphansOrdeal: Oscar first finds her as the sole survivor of one of the Wicked Witch's attacks. She tells him that if he could grant wishes, her one wish is to be with her family again.

| 281 | |
| 282 | After having her heart broken by Oscar, Theodora is tricked by Evanora into consuming an apple that withers the goodness from her heart. This causes her transformation into the [[WickedWitch Wicked Witch of the West]]. |
| 283 | |
| 284 | * AxCrazy: Becomes this after her transformation. |
| 285 | * BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: She starts off as a WideEyedIdealist, but getting her heart broken leads her to become the Wicked Witch of the West. |
| 286 | * BigBadDuumvirate: Becomes this with Evanora after her transformation. |

| 288 | --> ''"There's so much good here- it ''sickens'' me!"'' |
| 289 | * ClingyJealousGirl: She becomes ''very'' attached to Oz. |
| 290 | * CorruptTheCutie: Thanks to her sister's manipulations. |
| 291 | * CowardiceCallout: After [[spoiler:Oz uses his "magical powers" (which are actually fireworks) to retaliate against Evanora the Wicked Witch Of The East and Theodora the newly formed Wicked Witch Of The West]], Evanora becomes frightened by how powerful their heroic opponent actually is and she takes off running into the castle. Theodora, after suffering much abuse from her older sister, is quick to call Evanora out on her running away "And ''you'' said ''I'' was the coward!" |
| 292 | * TheDarkSideWillMakeYouForget: Tragically, the side effect of her FaceHeelTurn is that she can no longer feel any love or empathy. |
| 293 | * DoomedByCanon: You know her fate after this movie. It involves a little girl and a bucket of water... ''now you're getting it.'' |
| 294 | * DragonInChief: After being corrupted by Evanora, Theodora joins ranks with her. It's quickly established that she is the more bloodthirsty of the duo. |
| 295 | * DrunkOnTheDarkSide: Once she goes bad, she charges in with full force. |
| 296 | * EvilCostumeSwitch: She mostly wore red prior to her FaceHeelTurn, but switches to black afterwards. |
| 297 | * EvilFeelsGood: By the end of the film, she fully embraces her wickedness. |
| 298 | * EvilIsHammy: While Evanora might be a bit more subdued, Theodora really embraces the Wickedness. |
| 299 | * EvilLaugh: As befits the Wicked Witch of the West. |
| 300 | %%* EvilMakeover |
| 301 | * EvilMakesYouUgly: [[DownplayedTrope Though not nearly as much as her sister]]. |
| 302 | * FauxAffablyEvil: More so than her sister after her transformation, which is saying quite a lot. |
| 303 | * ForTheEvulz: Unlike her sister Evanora, whose motivation is to rule the kingdom of Oz, Theodora (after her corruption) is only interested in doing as many evil and wicked things as possible. |
| 304 | * GoneHorriblyRight: Her sister's spell to take away the pain (i.e. her heart) and make her wicked works. Before long, she's doing things that even Evanora is uneasy about. |
| 305 | %%* GoodGirlGoneBad |
| 306 | * IgnoredEpiphany: As she transforms into the Wicked Witch, she realizes her sister is evil and tricked her, but finds herself no longer caring as the good in her heart is extinguished. |
| 307 | * LoveIsAWeakness: A broken heart was what inspired her to turn bad. |
| 308 | %%* NoIndoorVoice |
| 309 | * OmnicidalManiac: Theodora, after her FaceHeelTurn, proclaims that she will paint the yellow brick road red with the blood of the people of Oz. |
| 310 | * RedemptionRejection: Just before she escapes at the end, Oz gives her a chance to stay if she rejects her wickedness her sister imposed on her (and presumably giving Glinda a chance to try to change her back), but she furiously refuses it. However, the poor witch is portrayed as literally being unable to choose good. |
| 311 | %% * SupernaturalGoldEyes |
| 312 | * TragicVillain: Theodora didn't willingly turn evil. Her turn and transformation was the result of Evanora's deception. |
| 313 | * TransformationTrauma |
| 314 | * UsedToBeASweetKid: She was once one of the Good Witches of Oz, who had the best intentions for her homeland and only wanted peace, that both Glinda and Oz had hoped she'd returned too. Unfortunately, in the end when offered a chance by Oz [[RedemptionRejection she willingly chooses evil]] fulfilling her transformation into [[BigBad the Wicked Witch of The West]] |
| 315 | * WomanScorned: Oz [[ExploitedTrope exploits]] this trope, using her scorn to fake his death for his plan. |
| 316 | * WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds |
