Regina

"'Magic tree, magic tree ... let this morning be the time that you perform your duty of bringing me the shoes of youthful, eternal beauty.' - said to her magic tree when growing the red shoes "

Regina is the main antagonist of the South Korean film Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs.

She is King White's second wife and Snow White's stepmother.

Appearance
Regina is a gaunt, older woman with pale skin (which turns greyish and spotted as her aging accelerates), grey hair with red highlights, grey eyes, and full, dark lips. Her hair is tied back into a bun with loose strands framing her face. She has a mole below the corner of her mouth. Her upper torso has gold leaf patterns.

Her attire consists of a long-sleeved dress that reaches down to her feet and a golden cloak. The dress is black with a Medici-esque collar that resembles golden leaves, sleeves that are gold-colored up to the elbows, and gold leaf patterns winding up the length of the dress. Her cloak is fastened with a black heart. Regina wears heart-shaped earrings, purple eye shadow, and black nail polish. Her gold crown is thin, pointed, and adorned with three black hearts.

When she wears the red shoes, Regina becomes much younger-looking, with red hair and smoother, vibrant skin.

Personality
Regina is a cruel and cunning person obsessed with being beautiful. She is power-hungry and does not hesitate to manipulate, harm, or kill others in order to achieve her goals. As a witch, she is very well-versed in magic.

Story
On Snow White's 18th birthday, the palace guards brought Regina to King White's castle. She had been accused of being a witch and was brought there to face punishment. However, upon seeing her, King White was captivated by Regina and her beauty (which was enhanced by the red shoes) and fell for her.

After Regina married the king and became the new queen, people slowly start to disappear from the castle (mostly likely due to her feeding them magic apples and turning them into trees for new red shoes). She turned three children into wooden bears and forced them to work for her.

Once she realized that King White had found out that she was a witch, she (with the Magic Mirror's help) cornered him in his office and gave a him an apple, which turned him into a giant wooden bunny.

When Snow White takes the newest pair of red shoes and escapes the castle, Regina is furious and tries to locate her, utilizing the Magic Mirror and Prince Average in her search. However, when the initial hunt fails, she goes out to get Snow White herself. When she finds her stepdaughter in the woods, Regina initially disguises herself as Merlin before assuming her true form and taking Snow White to the castle.

At the castle, Regina threatens Snow White to eat a magic apple in order to keep Merlin safe. The apple turns Snow White into a magic tree. However, Merlin tackles Regina off the tower before she can pick the red shoes, electrocuting her with his lightning as they fall killing her and ending her tyranny.

Skills
Magic: Regina is a witch. As such, she can curse/poison apples so that whoever eats them turns into whatever she wants them to be.

Plant Manipulation: With the Magic Mirror's assistance, she can manipulate vines to trap or capture her foes. She can even use them to create a bridge.

Shapeshifting: She can change her form and appearance to look and sound like anyone. (This is shown when she tries to trick Snow White into giving her the red shoes as Merlin in his dwarf form.)

Teleportation: She can teleport from place to place in the form of black mist.
