3
4	In many of the original myths and legends, spirits and monsters are not explicitly said to be good or evil. Often, they're just mischievous or powerful with a weird sense of humor, and reasonable people give them lip service but otherwise leave them alone. After centuries of [[MemeticMutation modifying]], [[MoralGuardians demonizing]] and [[AdaptationDecay adapting]] the stories, sometimes certain terms became associated with [[CharacterAlignment certain deeds]]. Sometimes this is a simplification to appeal to or educate young audiences, who supposedly require clear morality in characters.
5
6	A modern story can get some cred by reverting the depiction to [[TheFairFolk the ambiguous original]], although it's possible to annoy an audience who isn't familiar with that (or in some cases is too familiar with that). More commonly, the moral implications of the term are so indoctrinated that a story using it may invent a new piece of jargon or qualifier to imply "goodness" and "badness". For example, white witches and fairy godmothers are considered different from [[BlackMagic "bad"]] [[WickedWitch witches]], even though they do the same things in a general sense. Mischievous creatures lumped under "elf" [[WhatMeasureIsANonCute who are not cute]] tended to get eventually [[RedRightHand lumped into evil]].
7
8	Naturally a fantasy story may use the same "race" for the hero and the villain, in an effort to be even-handed. Sometimes you have the weaker implication that the other group ''exists'' but the story simply doesn't follow them.
9
10	FriendlyNeighborhoodVampires are different, taking a [[AlwaysChaoticEvil monolithically evil]] group from folklore and making certain members of it good. See also MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch.
11
12	Compare and contrast DarkIsNotEvil (the good witch may or may not look like a WickedWitch to drive a point across), TheDarkSide, BadPowersGoodPeople, and FantasticRacism.

19	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
20	* In ''Manga/MermaidMelodyPichiPichiPitch'', Aqua Regina [[SealedEvilInACan sealed]] the entire Panthalassa race under the ocean for the ambiguous crimes of their EvilOverlord. The first main villain, Gackto ([[InconsistentSpelling or Gakuto, or Gaito...]]), is the prince of the Panthalassa, escaped from the seal and seeking revenge... [[spoiler:or it seemed- although he was miserable under the sea and glad to be free, his real motivation is revenge for someone else, someone who happens to be from the previously "all good" mermaid race.]] Around the time of this [[TheReveal reveal]], we also learn that there are good Panthalassa, too. Aqua Regina punishes those that went against her for the destruction that they caused, but she finally realizes after thousands of years that there are good and bad members of all races.
21	* [[spoiler:Anthy Himemiya]] from ''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'' keeps struggling between her "good witch" and "bad witches" roles. [[spoiler:In the end, she decides to go "Good witch" and frees herself of her brother and manipulator Akio/Dios, leaving Ohtori Academy to search for the disappeared Utena.]]
22	* In ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'' Magister Magi help people as his job, still most of them seem do it because of good will. By contrast [[NobleDemon Evangeline]] states, that when you ask an evil mage for help, you have to pay a price.
23	%%* Yubaba and Zeniba from ''Anime/SpiritedAway''.
24	* ''Anime/IzettaTheLastWitch'' pits the good-aligned Izetta against [[spoiler:Sophie, the original White Witch of Eylstadt's legend, now turned evil out of a desire for {{Revenge}}]] late in the series.
25	[[/folder]]
26
27	[[folder:Comic Books]]
28	* ''ComicBook/CastleWaiting'' has Melora (good fairy godmother) versus Mald (evil witch who traffics with demons) in its opening section, which retells ''Literature/SleepingBeauty''.
29	* ''ComicBook/{{Hillbilly}}'' treats witches as usually VillainByDefault, with the exception of a single good witch, [[spoiler: Alma Rose]]. However, in the backstory there was once a powerful and heroic sorceress called the Stone Turner, and her equally-heroic descendant, James Stoneturner, has inherited her magic. The difference between their "good" magic and the "evil" magic of the witches has yet to be delved into in any detail.
30	[[/folder]]
31
32	[[folder:Fan Works]]
33	* ''Fanfic/TheBoltChronicles'': Mittens asks Petey if he's a good witch or a bad witch when they first do a CrashIntoHello in "The Survivor." Given that he's a big Creator/JudyGarland fan, the dog finds this amusing.
34	[[/folder]]
35
36	[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
37	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfPrinceAchmed'', the African Wizard is evil and the Witch of the Fiery Mountain is, well, at least an ally to any enemy of him.
38	* ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooAndTheWitchsGhost'' centers its climax around [[spoiler: the ghost of evil witch Sarah Ravencroft terrorising the town, and the only one that can defeat her being Hex Girls band member Thorn - who is a benevolent Wiccan healer]].
39	[[/folder]]
40
41	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
42	* The latter half of ''Film/TheCraft'' focuses on the conflict between Nancy Downs (the bad witch) and Sarah Bailey (the good witch). The main conflict is that Sarah is natural witch with most of her spells happening pretty quickly, but becomes conscious about throwing things out of balance. Nancy pursues power at all costs, regardless of the consequences. She becomes addicted to power and it is left to Sarah to face her fears of going the same way in order to stop her rampage.
43	* ''Film/HocusPocus2'' has the Sanderson sisters, the evil witches from the first film, accidentally resurrected by two teenagers who are studying witchcraft. Becca, the leader of the friend group, [[Dangerous16thBirthday turns out to be a witch whose powers activate on her 16th birthday]] so her, Izzy and Cassie form a benevolent coven to battle the Sandersons.
44	* ''Film/SleepyHollow1999'' leaves it in doubt that [[HairOfGoldHeartOfGold golden-haired]] [[TheIngenue Ingenue]] Katrina Van Tassel, who is seen practising magic, might be the one summoning the Headless Horseman. [[spoiler: She isn't, and the true WickedWitch is her stepmother, while Katrina helps Ichabod defeat her.]]
45	* Fin Raziel (good witch) and Queen Bavmorda (bad witch) in ''Film/{{Willow}}''.
46	* ''Film/TheWizardOfOz'' is as close as it comes to a TropeNamer: one of the first things Glinda asks Dorothy is if she's "a good witch, or a bad witch". The difference, it seems, is that the good witches get names, while all the bad witches get is a cardinal direction (the wicked witches of East and West, respectively. Good witches seem to also get cardinal directions, as Glinda introduces herself as witch of the North). Alongside the three witches, there's also a Wizard, although the twist is that [[ItWasHisSled the wizard has been faking it the whole time]].
47	* In ''Film/OzTheGreatAndPowerful'', the first witches Oz meets are [[Creator/MilaKunis Theodora]] and her older sister [[Creator/RachelWeisz Evanora]]. Evanora offers Oz the throne and riches of the Emerald City if he fulfills the prophecy and kills the Wicked Witch. However, when he finds the Wicked Witch, he finds out that she's [[Creator/MichelleWilliams Glinda]] the Good, and Evanora is the wicked one. Evanora then [[spoiler:tricks her sister into eating a cursed apple which turns her into the heartless and green Wicked Witch of the West]].
48	* Most witches in ''Film/HanselAndGretelWitchHunters'' are evil. However, as the heroes find out, not only do good witches exist, but their mother was one as well [[spoiler:and passed her power on to Gretel]]. In addition, [[spoiler:Hansel's LoveInterest turns out to be a good witch who faces off against the head evil witch but ends up dying]].
49	* ''Franchise/StarWars'' has a WizardsFromOuterSpace variant in the form of the heroic Jedi and villainous Sith.
50	* '50s DarkFantasy BMovie ''Film/TheUndead'' inverts the BeautyEqualsGoodness angle, with the good witch Meg Maud as an ugly old lady who [[DidYouJustScamCthulhu tricked the devil]] into [[FaustianRebellion giving her magic without taking her soul]], while the HotWitch Livia is one of the main villains.
51	[[/folder]]
52
53	[[folder:Literature]]
54	* ''Franchise/LandOfOz'':
55	** ''Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz'' has good witches (North and South) and bad witches (East and West). In TheFilmOfTheBook, the first thing Glinda says to Dorothy is "Are you a good witch, or a bad witch?"
56	** ''Literature/{{Wicked}}'' goes one better and declares ''none'' of the witches bad. Despite the fact that the Witch of the West is already established (in the Oz books, at least) as a sadistic maniac. Of course, this comes with the added effect of [[GrayAndGreyMorality none of the witches being good]].
57	** At least a couple of Oz stories have implied others - even the Compass Rose method above is worthless, as there was a Wicked Witch of the South in one, and another mentions two enchantresses who, though not officially given 'Good Witch' status, fill that slot for the East and West. (One appears to be isolationist, and the other's caught in some kind of time loop.)
58	** The {{Downplayed}} WickedWitch Mombi in ''Literature/TheMarvelousLandOfOz'' is minor witch living in isolation with Tip. She develops delusions of grandeur, and winds up facing Glinda, against whom she is no match.
59	** ''The Road to Oz'' upgrades Mombi to the former Wicked Witch of the North, defeated by the Good Witch of the North.
60	** ''The Tin Woodman of Oz'' {{downplay\|ed}}s the Witch of the East's wickedness: the tinsmith who gave the Tin Woodman and the Tin Soldier their tin bodies tells about having injured himself severely, and going to the Witch who readily heals him.
61	* In the ''Literature/{{Dragaera}}'' series, while practicing magic is not in itself good or bad, there is a group known as the Left Hand of the Jhereg who are primarily female and fit evil witch stereotypes. They're no more evil than the protagonist, though, really. The Left Hand deals in illegal and unlicensed magic, while the Organization deals in the more traditional mafia businesses (assassinations, loansharking, drugs, etc).
62	* Creator/BrianLumley's take on the works of Creator/HPLovecraft gives [[EldritchAbomination Cthulhu]] a twin brother who is good. [[FanonDiscontinuity This is universally disregarded]].
63	* In ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'', Gandalf is a good wizard and Saruman is an evil wizard. Along with Sauron and the Saruman they are not even mortal but more powerful creatures that are split between the benign ("advise and assist") and the evil ("destroy and conquer")
64	%%* Order of the Phoenix vs Death Eaters in ''Literature/HarryPotter''.
65	* ''Literature/WitchesAbroad'': The conflict between Granny Weatherwax and her elder sister Lily. Weatherwax is a Good Witch with some of the personality of a Bad one, being a classic case of GoodIsNotNice (and certainly not [[GoodIsNotSoft soft]]) and DarkIsNotEvil. She was ''supposed'' to be the Bad Witch, until her "good" older sister [[LightIsNotGood Lily went evil]] and started calling herself [[MeaningfulName Lilith]], and is so deluded she honestly believes ''[[TautologicalTemplar she]]'' is the good witch while ''Granny'' (as well as anyone with her) is evil. Granny has never forgiven her for it, and lives in fear of "[[TheDarkSide turning to the bad]]" herself.
66	-->'''Granny''': I'm goin' to give you the hidin' our Mam never gave you, Lily Weatherwax. Not with magic, not with headology, not with a stick like our Dad had, aye, and used a fair bit as I recall - but with skin. And not because you was the bad one. Not because you meddled with stories. Everyone has a path they got to tread. But because, and I wants you to understand this prop'ly, after you went ''I had to be the good one''. You had all the fun. An' there's no way I can make you pay for that, Lily, but I'm surely goin' to give it a try...\
67	'''Lily''': But I ... I ... I'm the good one. I'm the good one. I can't lose. I'm the godmother. You're the wicked witch.\
68	'''Granny''': Good? Good? Feeding people to stories? Twisting people's lives? That's ''good'', is it? You mean you didn't even have ''fun''? If I'd been as bad as you, I'd have been a whole lot worse. Better at it than you'd ever dreamed of.
69	* ''Literature/SweetAndBitterMagic'': Tamsin is a good witch who's repentant of having used dark magic in the past, trying to stop the new dark witch using it, who's revealed as [[spoiler:her sister Marlena]]. However, it turns out that the dark witch isn't innately evil, but [[TheCorruption corrupted]] by the dark magic, and goes back to normal after she's {{depower}}ed.
70	[[/folder]]
71
72	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
73	* The two brothers in ''Series/TheVampireDiaries'' are a clear example. Stefan is a FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire while his brother Damon is going around killing people.
74	* In ''Series/{{Smallville}}'', most surviving Kryptonians that Clark Kent meets are evil or just plain arrogant, and don't understand why Clark is trying to stop them from hurting people or taking over the world, as they feel that they have the [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveSupernaturalPowers right to do whatever they feel like]].
75	** Also, the WickedWitch, Isobel, mistakes Clark for a good sorcerer, as she is unaware of Kryptonians and other beings that have superpowers without magic.
76	* Turned upside-down and inside-out with ''Series/TrueBlood''. Since the release of "New Blood", originally designed to be an easily-mass-produced synthetic blood for medical transfusion, the vampires of the world [[TheUnmasquedWorld stop living in secret]] and much, MUCH publicity effort is made to separate the "myth" of the "bloodthirsty maniac" vampire with the "reality" of the "cultured, fully nuanced people who now can sate their unique metabolism with the fake stuff." There's even implicit invocation of this trope in the description of their subculture. It's utter nonsense: while there are several "good" vampires, most of the ones trying to act saintly are just trying to fend off the vamp-hating masses and are at the core every bit as bad they're made out to be.
77	** And that's not even getting into the vampire-blood-addicted werewolves that fight with the "clean" werewolves, the crystal-meth-producing werepanthers, the fairies (who are much closer to the classical idea of TheFairFolk than a "fairy godmother", having in fact INVENTED the later idea themselves), witches, voodoo priests, etc...
78	* George Plantagenet, Duke of Clarence, tries to invoke this trope in the BBC/Starz series ''Series/TheWhiteQueen'' when he hires a sorcerer to protect him and his wife from the curses laid on them by his sister-in-law, Queen Elizabeth (the consort of Edward IV, not her more famous great-granddaughter). Unfortunately for him, the sorcerer he hires is just a charlatan, while Elizabeth's magic is all too real.[[note]]Yeah, they took [[VeryLooselyBasedOnATrueStory some liberties with the historical record.]][[/note]] Additionally, George is really one of the villains, or at least antagonists, of the series, and is generally probably the least sympathetic character, whereas Elizabeth is the title character and protagonist, so our sympathies naturally lie with her.
79	* In ''Series/OnceUponATime'', most antagonists are magic users, starting with the [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Evil Queen]] in season 1. However, protagonist Emma becomes able to use "light magic", and other characters like [[Franchise/{{Frozen}} Elsa]] come to learn how to use their powers for good. Even the Queen and [[Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz the Wicked Witch of the West]] undergo a HeelFaceTurn, leaving ''them'' to battle [[TheGoodTheBadAndTheEvil even worse witches]] like the Black Fairy and Mother Gothel.
80	* ''{{Series/Charmed 1998}}'':
81	** Initially the main enemies the good Charmed Ones have to face are warlocks and demons, but evil witches begin showing up as antagonists as early as Season 2 - Tuatha (implied to be [[Film/TheBlairWitchProject the Blair Witch]]), Aunt Gail and her coven, the Sea Hag, the Stillman sisters etc.
82	** Both Phoebe and Paige discover that their past lives were evil. Paige's is even called the Evil Enchantress, and she travels to the past to do battle with her.
83	** An episode with FairyTaleMotifs has a WickedWitch escape from being trapped in a magic mirror, and go after the sisters with various fairy tale objects. Notable because their grandmother quickly realises it's an evil witch behind it, as opposed to Phoebe convinced it's her ex-husband. Naturally when she's hit with a vanquishing potion, she wails ImMelting.
84	** The BigBad of the final season is the Ultimate Power - two witch sisters Billie and Christy. However, only Christy proves to be irredeemably evil; Billie had been raised by the Charmed Ones as a student, and convinced to turn on them by her sister, who in turn was raised by the Triad.
85	* The 1998 series of ''Literature/TheWorstWitch'':
86	** The HalloweenEpisode adapts the first book's plot of Mildred stumbling across Miss Cackle's EvilTwin Agatha, and her band of wicked witches planning to take over the school by turning everyone into frogs. They return in the finale to come after the girls once again.
87	** A Season 3 episode has the girls accidentally bringing the fabled heroic witch Lucy Fairweather into the present, along with the evil Harriet Hogweed, and having to guess who is who.
88	** The series finale has the girls accidentally summoning 'The Uninvited' - the wicked witch from Sleeping Beauty, who puts the whole school to sleep. Miss Hardbroom does battle with her.
89	* ''Series/EmeraldCity'': Being an ''Oz'' adaptation, it should be no surprise that this comes up. It doesn't take long for it to become apparent that the difference between a "good witch" and a "bad witch" is largely political; the Witch of the West gets treated as wicked for running a brothel and largely being acerbic, but has a HiddenHeartOfGold and tries to be helpful where she can. Meanwhile, Glinda, the Witch of the North, is seen as good and pure for being polite and following the rules, but is actually running a SuperSoldier program with child witches. Not to mention that the question largely revolves around the morality of Dorothy, because no one believes her when she says she's not a witch at all.
90	-->'''West:''' So, are you a good witch or a bad witch? Don't worry, there's no wrong answer. Unfortunately, there's no right answer either.
91	* ''Series/TheLordOfTheRingsTheRingsOfPower'': The Meteor Man, [[spoiler:one of the Istari]], fights the three evil Priestesses of Sauron from Rhun in the final of Season 1. The Dweller in particular is able to wield powerfull potent magic. He defeats them by making them to return to their wraith-like forms.
92	[[/folder]]
93
94	[[folder:Manhwa]]
95	* In ''Manhwa/WitchHunter'', two-thirds of the world has been conquered by [[MageSpecies witchkind]] after they suddenly started a war against humanity. Humanity's only hope lies in the international defense organization known as [[TitleDrop the Witch Hunters]], made up of {{Badass Normal}}s , [[BadassAbnormal some abnormals]], [[EmpoweredBadassNormal people empowered through various means]], and [[ProHumanTranshuman the witches]] [[HunterOfHerOwnKind that sided with them.]] Among the witches themselves though, two examples stand out prominently: one is [[WhiteMage Edea Florence,]] [[PosthumousCharacter the late teacher]] of Tasha Godspell, who at one point was considered the strongest WH of all. The other example is [[RedBaron The Great Witch West]], [[WorldsStrongestWoman the strongest witch]], ''ever'', and also TheParagon who [[ProHumanTranshuman is fully on the side of humanity]]. Notably, both have white as their motif, in contrast with the [[BigBadDuumvirate Great Witches North and South]], who has black as theirs.
96	[[/folder]]
97
98	[[folder:Myths & Religion]]
99	* Within the witchcraft community, there is a divide on whether witches should curse or not. Some witches (like Wiccans) feel that cursing is wrong under any circumstance, while some witches see cursing as a form of protection (like cursing a serial killer to be shot dead by police). Many consider witches to be creatures of justice by default, meaning a curse would only work if the witch casting it really believes it is deserved, which is still prone to errors. It's a rather hot debate at times.
100	[[/folder]]
101
102	[[folder:Theatre]]
103	* Zigzagged and deconstructed in ''Theatre/{{Wicked}}''. Neither Elphaba nor Galinda is remotely "bad" at the beginning of the story - Elphaba has been continually discriminated against for her unusual skin color, and Galinda is a bit of an AlphaBitch, but they eventually come to respect each other and are fast friends. But when Elphaba decides to take a stand against the rights of Talking Animals being taken away, she becomes Public Enemy Number 1, and is forced to go underground to continue her work while Galinda (now Glinda) becomes the face of the government and is declared a "good" witch. Eventually, Elphaba decides [[ThenLetMeBeEvil that if she's going to be labeled as "evil", she may as well act it]] (although the only evil things she does are imprison [[HeroOfAnotherStory Dorothy]] to get her sister's shoes back). By the end of the show, Glinda resolves to be the good witch the people think she is, and Elphaba escapes Oz once and for all.
104	** Elphaba's sister, Nessarose, on the other hand, plays it straight. Crippled and wheelchair-bound her whole life, [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope she goes mad with power after becoming the ruler of Munckinland]] [[IfICantHaveYou in order to keep her munchkin husband Boq from leaving her]]. She eventually gives herself the ability to walk and removes Boq's heart to prevent him from leaving her, just before [[Film/TheWizardOfOz a house from Kansas lands directly on top of her]].
105	[[/folder]]
106
107	[[folder:Video Games]]
108	* In ''VideoGame/TheSims2'', good witches wear white and gold robes, neutral ones wear gray ones with green trim, and bad witches wear black and purple ones. There is a sliding scale of good and evil; practicing or studying [[PokeThePoodle evil]] [[KickTheDog spells]] can turn a good witch bad, and vice versa.
109	* ''VideoGame/HyruleWarriors'' has the White Witch Lana, who stands on the heroes' side, opposing the Black Witch Cia, who is the game's BigBad. [[spoiler:Turns out Lana is [[LiteralSplitPersonality the embodiment of all the positive traits]] of the now-[[DemonicPossession demonically possessed]] Cia.]]
110	* In a later level of ''VideoGame/TheMatrixPathOfNeo'' you save a witch with a red, purple and black dress. A few levels later after helping you, she faces off with the Witch Queen who would have deleted/killed her and tries to kill you as well.
111	* In ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooie'', Brentilda is a FairyGodmother who assists Banjo and Kazooie in their quest to rescue Tooty by revealing secrets about her sister, [[BigBad Gruntilda]], [[ChekhovsClassroom which come in handy during the Grunty's Furnace Fun mini-game]]. This makes sense, as Brenty and Grunty were [[ShoutOut based]] on [[Film/TheWizardOfOz Glinda the Good Witch and the Wicked Witch of the West]], respectively.
112	* In ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara 4'', we have Oichi and her sister-in-law Kyogoku Maria, both having magic powers. They usually quarrel over Azai Nagamasa, and while Oichi is proficent in BlackMagic, she actually [[GoodPeopleBadPowers means well]]. Maria, on the other hand, uses her spells out of [[VainSorceress vanity]].
113	[[/folder]]
114
115	[[folder:Visual Novels]]
116	* All witches in ''VisualNovel/UminekoWhenTheyCry'' tend to zigzag between good and bad. Beatrice begins as cruel in [=EP=]s 1-4 [[spoiler: but turns out to be good in [=EP5=]]]. Maria, despite her creepy happiness to the imminent death of the whole family (including her mother) and the fact that she helps and supports Beatrice, is still to be considered a good witch because she sincerely believes that with death all of them will achieve eternal peace and happiness in the Golden Land. Lambadelta zigzags several times and [[WildCard chooses either side depending on which will entertain her most]]. Bernkastel begins as a quiet MysteriousWatcher who initially seems to be there to help Battler and Ange [[spoiler:but turns out to be the cruelest character in the series]]. EVA-Beatrice begins as evil but changes somewhat [[spoiler:with the reveal that the real Eva really did care about Ange]]. And finally Ange, who is a good witch [[spoiler: except in [=EP8=] when she refuse to accept the truth that Battler shows her and joins the bad guys]].
117	[[/folder]]
118
119	[[folder:Web Animation]]
120	* ''WebAnimation/{{Dreamscape}}'': Melissa is the good witch, and Melinda, her former master, is the bad witch. Melissa underwent a HeelFaceTurn and uses her powerful magic to destroy evil instead of causing it. Melinda was sealed away because of her dark powers, which she tried to use to bring about TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt.
121	* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'': Episode 1 has a WizardDuel between the heroically-aligned Glynda Goodwitch and the villainous Cinder Fall.
122	[[/folder]]
123
124	[[folder:Webcomics]]
125	* In the fan webcomic ''Webcomic/CheshireCrossing'', Dorothy had believed that Glinda was a Good Witch. Then she figures out that Glinda had actually manipulated her into killing the Wicked Witch for her. Overlaps with GrayAndGreyMorality.
126	* ''Webcomic/WildeLife'' has Eliza pitted against Zulime in chapter six; Zulime is also revealed to be behind the [[WasOnceAMan rougaroux]] from the previous chapter. Eliza is a "witch of summer" who works for [[BigGood the White-Faced Bear]] (though whether he's the source of her powers is not clear); not much is known about Zulime except that her powers include [[ForcedTransformation turning people into monsters]] and {{Mind Control}}ling people [[IKnowYourTrueName if she knows their name]]. Though we do find out that [[spoiler:[[DefensiveFeintTrap Eliza is a LOT more powerful than Zulime realized]]]].
127	[[/folder]]
128
129	[[folder:Western Animation]]
130	* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Centurions}}'' episode "Return of Cassandra" combines this trope with TheGloriousWarOfSisterlyRivalry and TwinSwitch. HotWitch Cassandra Cross is impersonated by her EvilTwin sister Lilith, who helps the series' BigBad Doc Terror capture Skyvault, the team's space station headquarters. Cassandra's boyfriend, Ace [=McCloud=], escapes to Earth and rescues Cassandra; together, they go back to Skyvault to help their teammates deal with Lilith as well as Terror's forces.
