Lady of the Green Kirtle

The Queen of Underland, also called the Witch-Queen, the Green Witch, or originially the Lady of the Green Kirtle was an evil, beautiful sorceress who lived in Underland below Narnia. She had the ability to transform into a Great Green Serpent and attempted to initiate a plot that would capture Narnia which involved the abduction of Prince Rilian, son of Narnia's king Caspian X. She is also sometimes believed to have been Jadis, the White Witch. This theory is lent credibility by the fact that in the BBC television series, Jadis and the Lady of the Green Kirtle are both played by Barbara Kellerman. Further, though she was killed by Aslan, she ate the Apple, allowing her immortality. However, Aslan himself said that Jadis was dead, and it is more likely that the Lady of the Green Kirtle was a follower of the previous witch. She was Queen of Underland and planned to conquer Overland, including Narnia, Archenland, and Calormen.
