Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: Snow White • Dopey • Magic Mirror • The Evil Queen • Grumpy • The Prince • Sleepy • Doc • Winter Snow White • The Witch • Obsidian Snow White Madam Mim appears in the original version of the novel but not in the revised version featured in The Once and Future King, which is more commonly known. However, this character was the basis for the film character. Mim was animated by two of Disney's legendary Nine Old Men, Milt Kahl (who also designed the character, refining storyboard sketches from Bill Peet) and Frank Thomas. Kahl animated her initial interaction with Arthur while Thomas oversaw her famous "Wizards' Duel" with Merlin.

Madam Mim debuted as a face character during 2022’s Oogie Boogie Bash at Disney California Adventure. She was available for meet-and-greets, debuting alongside other villains such as Mother Gothel from Tangled, Ernesto de la Cruz from Coco, and Bruno from Encanto.Mim's past is mostly unknown. At some unknown point, she managed to harness her magical powers, which she likely used for negative means, and has become quite convinced of her power. She chose to use this magic for evil purposes. It is also implied that she already knew Merlin, and they were not on friendly terms. In the novel, Mim turns into a dragon first, not last. Instead her final form is an aullay (which appears to be T. H. White's name for the yali of Hindu myth), described as a "a sort of horse with an elephant's trunk" that's "as much bigger than an elephant as an elephant is larger than a sheep". It's this form that catches the series of microbes that then cause Mim's death.

Aside from being arrogant and sadistic, Madam Mim is also cunning, dishonest, traitorous, calculating, and evil. Movie viewers observe this when she broke her own rules during her duel with Merlin; she even used a so-called loophole when she took on the form of a dragon. Mim clearly doesn't care in the least about rules, so she probably made them up solely for the sake of limiting Merlin (as the latter's honorable character would not allow him to break the rules), and as Merlin's pet owl, Archimedes, declares, "she only wants rules so she can break em!". Ironically, she breaks Merlin's only rule ("Rule four: No cheating") multiple times throughout their standoff. Sir Ector is Kay's father and Wart's guardian. He is portrayed as a silly, buffoonish character, who is basically kind but often acts in a pompous and absurd manner. He is also an accomplished knight.

Beth agrees since you can't see out of masks. When the Ghost of Halloween points out how masks make everything dark and scary, Mim retorts saying, "Silly, silly, that's why masks are dangerous."
