A brilliant mad woman determined to create a super race of gingerbread men. Eternally jealous of Drosselmeier’s creations she has worked for years to outdo him, slowly losing her sanity as she creates her “children.” Over time part of her essence fused with her decaying gingerbread house allowing her to control her environment. She can’t bear to throw her failed experiments away so she keeps them contained beneath her magic skirt. Although she is insane she is one of the few who can rival Drosselmeier’s power.
