[[folder:Effort Post for Bony Lizzie as a Complete Monster]]

'''What is the work?'''

''Literature/TheWardstoneChronicles'', better known as ''The Last Apprentice'' or ''The Spook Series'', tells the adventures of Thomas Ward, [[MagicalSeventhSon the seventh son of a seventh son]], during his apprenticeship with the Spook John Gregory. Spooks, all seventh sons of a seventh son, fight evil creatures. They are later joined by Alice Dean, a girl who was trained as witch by her aunt Bony Lizzie. The series got a loose and crappy adaptation ''[[Film/SeventhSon2015 Seventh Son]]''. Among the numerous changes, Lizzie was turned into a loving mother who dies trying to protect Alice but [[AdaptationalHeroism the character in the source material was very different]].

'''Who is she?'''

Bony Lizzie is a bone witch, a witch using bones for her magic, mainly thumb bones. She has a taste for blood which she acquires from [[WouldHurtAChild young childen]]. She's from the Malkin Clan, one the the three Pendle clans (the other three are the Deanes and the Mouldheel's). She's the grandaughter of another infamous witch Mother Malkin. "Mother" Malkin is named this way because she lured helpless pregnant women into a care home where she and her abhuman[[note]]abhumen are monsters born from the Fiend and a witch[[/note]] son Tusk would kill them and their babies. Finally Lizzie is the aunt of Alice Deane, herself the daughter a Malkin mother (presumably Lizzie's sister) and a Deane Father.

Lizzie is a secondary antagonist in the first novel ''The Spook's Apprentice'' and the main antagonist in the seventh novel ''The Spooks Nightmare''. She also appears in the short story "Alice and The brain Gruzzler" taking place before the first book and "Spook's: Alice".

'''What does she do?'''

Backstory: It's not known if Lizzie worked with Malkin in the "care home" but she did travel with her and Tusk. Thirty years before the first book, the Spook captured Mother Malkin with his silver chain but Lizzie and Tusk managed to escape. As the Spook didn't have the heart to either burn Mother Malkin or rip her heart out and eat it (the only ways to permanently kill a witch), he sealed her in a pit in his garden. He has a pet boggart who guards the place so the witches can't approach the pit.

''Alice and the Brain Guzzler:'' The story takes place two years before the first book. After the death of her parents, Alice went to live with her aunt Agnes Sowerbutts, a benevolent witch. A few years later, her other aunt Lizzie abducted a 11 years old Alice against the protest of Agnes. Lizzie is shown to be an abusive teacher. Alice's first lesson consist to chose wisely her meal between three pots. She as to sniff to tell which one contains rabbit. the other two contains poisonous mushrooms and Lizzie's familiar Old Spig. Old Spig is the titular Brain Gruzzler. He feeds on brain from animals and human. He can controls their bodies; Lizzie had a servant, Nanna Nuckle, whom she allowed Old Spig to eat her brain and uses her body as his vessel. Every month she prepares Old Spig's favorite meal: brain plug in apple juice that she buries in the witch Dell at full moon. She then sends her niece to retrieve the jugs. I forgot to say that the Witch Dell is full of dangerous undead witches.
One day, Alice insults Old Spig for jumping into her stew. Old Spig announces that [[DisproportionateRetribution he will consume her brains just before the next full moon]]. When Alice reports the incident to Lizzie not onlmy the latter refuses to help her but she makes clear that's non of her buisness. She just say that's between him and Alice and that she had to get hard and survive.
The mean aunt announces that she's leaving the house for a few days because she has a gathering with the Pendle witches. She reminds Alice it's going to be the full moon soon and wonders if she's still be alive when she return or Old Spig will control her body.. She leave laughing.

''Spook's: Alice:''

''The Spook's Apprentice:'' Lizzie enacts a plan to free Mother Malkin. She steals the thumb bones of Billy Bradley [[note]] it's the character played by Kit Harrington in the movie[[/note]], John's former apprentice and Tom's predecessor, who died when dealing with a dangerous boggart.

''The Spooks Nightmare:''


see also here for more informations http://thespooksapprentice.wikia.com/wiki/Bony_Lizzie. The article is a stub as it lacks the events of the ''Spook's Nightmare''

'''Freudian Excuse? '''

None elaborated besides being raised by a clan of evil witches. It's possible that being imprisoned in the pit didn't improve her sanity.

'''Redeeming Qualities?'''

Early on ''The Spook's Nightmare'', Lizzie reveals to Tom that she considers her conception of Alice with the Fiend as her "gift to the County". She believes Alice is destined to unite the clans of Pendle and end their rivalry. It's the reason why she wants to te wins her back. quote

"Know what Alice is, boy? She’s my gift to the County […]‘She’s my special gift to the Pendle clans, One day she’ll unite ’em once and for all, and then the world had better watch out!’"

She might sounds like a WellIntentionedExtremist but it's likely more about uniting the witches against the rest of the world. Anyway it's not compelling considering how she repeatedly put Alice in harm's way and no longer cares by the time she directly tries to kill her.

The fact that she went in great ways to free her grandmother Mother Malkin and attempts to avenge her later could invoke an EvenEvilHasLovedOnes but there's little evidence beyond that. I paid attention and even thought in the first book, Lizzie is irrate after Tom killed Mother Malkin, she doesn't seems to be sad at all. in fact she never mentions her, not even ''once''. Before trapping Tom in the pit, the only things she says to him are sadistic taunts. The quote from the book:

"Well, boy,’ she said. ‘How does it feel to know that you’ll never see the light of day again?"

Ditto for the ''Spook's Nightmare'' where she never mentions Mother Malkin and makes clear that she hates Tom nd his master for pitting her.

She's clearly found of her brain gruzzler Old Spig but given how she react after Alice kills it, I don't think it counts as a redeeming quality.
As for her uncle Tusk, she treats him like a servant.

'''Moral Agency?'''

Most creatures Tom meet are either AlwaysChaoticEvil entities (daemons, evil spirits,...) or feral beasts. While most witches are evil, they're human and have moral agency. The Spook classes witches into four categories: The Benign, The Malevolent, The Unaware
and the Falsely Accused. MagicIsEvil is played straight, the Spook has nothing but hatred for it and berates Alice every time she uses it even for good purpose like creating the blood jar that keep away the Fiend. The series has several token "good" witches (or not entirely evil): Alice, Adriana the bird witch, Agnès the benevolent witch, Grimalkin [[AntiVillain the ruthless killer who wants to avenge her son killed by the Fiend (their son to be precise...)]]... Lizzie is also an EvilCounterpart to Tom's mother who's [[spoiler: the mythological Lamia driven insane by Hera and preyed on children but redeemed herself]] while Lizzie has no redemption arc.

'''Heinousness?'''

I do think she stands out in heinousness. Lord Barrule from the same novel is also a awful human being as he hunts witches despite [[{{Hypocrite}} being a sorcerer himself]]. Even though he has Horn to track them, many of those girls are oblivious about being witches. He sentenced Adrianna to death not just because she's a witch but because she refused to marry him. Still I don't see him as a CM since Lizzie has a much larger body count with the same level of ressource and he dies halway the story. I seriously considered Mother Malkin but in the story she just ties to kill Tom and later as a ghost, tries to kill his entire familly including his baby niece but I think it's standard villainy. The story about pregnant woman murdered is backtory and OffscreenVillainy. Lizzie overshadows her by what we actually see. The other evil witches fail the moral standard: We have Mistress Wurmald who abduct Tom's brother, his sister in law and his baby niece. There's also Scarabek who wants to kill Tom to avenge [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes her twin sister (even if Tom wasn't responsible) and has a monstruous Husband and son]].
''The Spook's Sacrifice'' has an evil godess who seeks to invade the world with her army of monsters but she comes out as a GenericDoomsdayVillain.

The only other candidate I see is Alice's other parent, the Fiend himself. I'll make an effort about him post later.

As the Spook didn't have the heart to either burn Mother Malkin or rip her heart out and eat it (the only ways to permanently kill a witch), he sealed her in a pit in his garden. He has a pet boggart who guards the place so the witches can't approach the pit.

I do think she stands out in heinousness. Lord Barrule from the same novel is also a awful human being as he hunts witches despite [[{{Hypocrite}} being a sorcerer himself]]. even though he has Horn to track them, many of those girls are oblivious about being witches. He sentenced Adrianna to death not just because she's a witch but because she refused to marr him. Still I don't see him as a CM since Lizzie has a much larger body count with the same level of ressource and he dies halway the story. I seriously considered Mother Malkin but in the story she just ties to kill Tom and later as a ghost, tries to kill his entire familly including his baby niece but I think it's standar villainy. The story about pregnant woman murdered is backtory and OffscreenVillainy. Lizzie overshadows her by what we actually see. The other evil witches fail the moral standard: We have Mistress Wurmald who abduct Tom's brother, his sister in law and his baby niece. There's also Scarabek who wants to avenge [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes her twin sister and has a monstruous Husband and son]].
The Spook's Sacrifice has an evil godess who seeks to invade the world with her army of monsters but she comes out as a GenericDoomsdayVillain.

''Literature/TheWardstoneChronicles'', better known as ''The Last Apprentice'' or ''The Spook Series'', tells the adventures of Thomas Ward, [[MagicalSeventhSon the seventh son of a seventh son]], during his apprenticeship with the Spook John Gregory. Spooks, all seventh sons of a seventh son, fight evil creatures. They are later joined by Alice Dean, a girl who was trained as witch by her aunt Bony Lizzie.

''Alice and the Brain Guzzler:'' The story takes place two years before the first book. After the death of her parents, Alice went to live with her aunt Agnes Sowerbutts, a benevolent witch. A few years later, her other aunt Lizzie abducted a 11 years old Alice against the protest of Agnes. Lizzie is shown to be an abusive teacher. Alice's first lesson consist to chose wisely her meal between three pots. She as to sniff to tell which one contains rabbit. the other two contains poisonous mushrooms and Lizzie's familiar Old Spig. Old Spig is the titular Brain Gruzzler. He feeds on brain from animals and human. He can controls their bodies; Lizzie had a servant, Nanna Nuckle, whom she allowed Old Spig to eat her brain and uses her body as his vessel. Every month she prepares Old Spig's favorite meal: brain plug in apple juice that she buries in the witch Dwell at full moon. She then sends her niece to retrieve the jugs. I forgot to say that the Witch dwell is full of dangerous undead witches.

see also here for more informations http://thespooksapprentice.wikia.com/wiki/Bony_Lizzie. The article is a stub as it lacks the events of the ''Spook's Nightmare''



Early on ''The Spook's Nightmare'', Lizzie reveals to Tom that she considers her conception of Alice with the Fiend as her "gift to the County". She believes Alice is destined to unite the clans of Pendle and end their rivalry. It's the reason why she wants to te wins her back. She might sounds like a WellIntentionedExtremist but it's likely more about uniting the witches against the rest of the world. Anyway it's not compelling considering how she repeatedly put Alice in harm's way and no longer cares by the time she directly tries to kill her.

The fact that she went in great ways to free her grandmother Mother Malkin and attempts to avenge her later could invoke an EvenEvilHasLovedOnes but there's little evidence beyond that. I paid attention and even thought in the first book, Lizzie is irrate after Tom killed Mother Malkin, she doesn't seems to be sad at all. in fact she never mentions her, not even ''once''. Before trapping Tom in the pit, the only thing she says to him is a sadistic taunt, ().

"Well, boy,’ she said. ‘How does it feel to know that you’ll never see the light of day again?"

Ditto for the ''Spook's Nightmare'' where she never mentions Mother Malkin and makes clear that she hates Tom nd his master for pitting her.



I do think she stands out in heinousness. Lord Barule from the same novel is also a awful human being as he hunts witches despite [[{{Hpocrite}} being a sorcerer himself]]. even though he has Horn to track them, many of those girls are oblivious about being witches. He sentenced Adrianna to death not just because she's a witch but because she refused to marr him. Still I don't see him as a CM since Lizzie has a much larger body count with the same level of ressources. I seriously considered Mother Malkin but in the story she just ties to kill Tom and later as a ghost, tries to kill his entire familly including his baby niece but I think it's standar villainy. The story about pregnant woman murdered is backtory and OffscreenVillainy. Lizzie overshadows her by what we actually see. The other evil witches fail the moral standard: We have Mistress Wurmald who abduct Tom's brother, his sister in law and his baby niece.

Most creatures Tom meet are either AlwaysChaoticEvil entities (daemons for example) or feral beasts. While most witches are evil, they're human and have moral agency. The Spook classes witches into four categories: The Benign, The Malevolent, The Unaware
and the Falsely Accused. MagicIsEvil is played straight, the Spook has nothing but hatred for it and berates Alice every time she uses it even for good purpose like creating the blood jar that keep away the Fiedn.

Lizzie is a secondary antagonist in the first novel ''The Spook's Apprentice'' and the main antagonist in the seventh novel ''The Spooks Nightmare''. She also appears in the short story "" taking place before the first book.
