Elphaba: adverse reaction to water; sharp teeth; long fingers; green-skinned. Likely, the Wizard of Oz fathered Elphaba while her mother was under the influence of the Miracle Elixir, which may explain Elphaba's green skin, reaction to water, and occasional ability to read parts of the Grimmerie, which originated in the Wizard's world.

Nessarose (Elphaba's younger sister): born without arms, possibly as a side effect of the medicine Melena took in order to save her next child from having green skin; Frex sends Nessarose the jewelled slippers, which Glinda later enchants, allowing Nessarose to walk unaided. Click here to check out a flick! Fiyero: dark-skinned; has unique blue diamond tattoos. Elphaba's lover, giving Elphaba the happiest time of her life. Murdered by the Gale Force. Melena Thropp: very loose morals; arguably sexually promiscuous as a result of perhaps a mental illness. Melena is chemically addicted. Galinda (Glinda): comes to be known as a wicked witch; may have a learning disability. Elphaba's roommate in Shiz University. (The two hated each other at the beginning but later become great friends.) The Wizard of Oz: a human who rules Oz like Hitler ruled Germany. Arguably mentally ill.

Click here to check out a pic! Boq: a Munchkin who is a small man. He is a friend to Elphaba and Galinda. He assists Elphaba and Doctor Dillamond with the animal research.

(Elphaba befriends Chistery, Killjoy, the Bees, and the Crows.) Avaric: the "perfect asshole" -- a personality disorder? Tibbett: becomes insane from his experiences at the Philosophy Club (e.g. interspecies sex) and later dies. Ama Clutch: loses her sanity in a suspicious fashion when she witnesses the murder of Doctor Dillamond. It is strongly suggested that Madame Morrible hexed Ama Clutch, afflicting her with the same crazed behaviour that Galinda (falsely) claimed was responsible for Ama Clutch's absence from the roommate negotiations; namely talking to inanimate objects as if they were people. OTHER MAIN CHARACTERS Frexspar: the father of Elphaba, Nessarose, and Shell (probably his only biological child). Nanny: Melena's mother. Chaperone of Nessarose, Elphaba, and Glinda at Shiz. Outspoken personality.
