Queenie from AHS: Coven
A modern witch with blood ties to both the Salem witches and the voodoo tribe, Queenie (Gabourey Sidibe) is the only person of color at Miss Robichaux’s Academy in American Horror Story: Coven. Queenie is sassy, confident, and possesses the abilities of a “human voodoo doll” – she can injure herself in order to harm others, while feeling no pain herself. She enters Miss Robichaux’s Academy alongside Madison Montgomery, Zoe Benson, Misty Day, and is taught by the Supreme Fiona Goode. Through the trials of AHS: Coven, Queenie eventually ends up on the Witches’ Council and makes an appearance in the sister series, American Horror Story: Hotel.
Téa Gardner
In Yu-Gi-Oh!, the childhood friend of Yugi Muto and Joey Wheeler, Téa Gardner (Amy Birnbaum / Maki Saito) is an amateur duelist and aspiring ballerina. She is a sweet-natured girl who fiercely advocates for the bonds of friendship, and most of her dueling deck is comprised of cute cards and cards around the topic of faith. She is involved in a rather odd love triangle involving herself, Yugi, and Yami Yugi.
Misty Day from AHS: Coven
The resident Stevie Nicks fanatic of AHS: Coven’s group of witches, Misty Day (Lily Rabe) was a contender for the title of Supreme alongside Madison, Queenie, and Zoe. With the ability of resurgence, Misty was able to bring back souls from the dead – including her own, after being burned at the stake. Compared to the other young witches in Coven, Misty’s style is unique in its bohemian and slightly more colorful quality.
Fiona Goode from AHS: Coven
In American Horror Story: Coven, Fiona Goode (Jessica Lange) was the Supreme of the Salem witch descendants. Her daughter, Cordelia, would later become the next Supreme and awaken the depth of her powers before her mother’s death. In the search for the next Supreme, Fiona acted somewhat as a mentor for a group of young witches, including Zoe Benson, Queenie, Madison Montgomery, and Misty Day. Like many of the characters in this series, Fiona was often appearing in all-black ensembles.
Joey Wheeler
Joey Wheeler (Wayne Grayson / Hiroki Takahashi) is one of the main protagonists in the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise, and is one of the close friends of Yugi Muto and Téa Gardner. He is also a love interest for one of the gang’s Duel Monsters rivals, Mai Valentine. In the English dub, Joey speaks with a very noticeable New York accent that accentuates his tough-guy attitude and demeanor. Despite this, he is quite affectionate towards his friends and family.
Umehito Nekozawa
The mysterious president of the Black Magic Club, Umehito Nekozawa (Patrick Seitz / Yuji Ueda), is a side character in Ouran High School Host Club. While coming off as a bit spooky, Nekozawa is merely a shy and misunderstood character who could do to have better social skills. He is never seen without Beelzenef, his catlike hand puppet. Nekozawa suffers from a rare condition that leaves him very sensitive to sunlight, so he generally stays hidden under his dark cloak and hides his blonde hair under a dark wig.
Jo Harvelle
Born into a family of hunters, Joanna Harvelle (Alona Tal) was a spirited, determined young woman in the series Supernatural. Prior to her mother realizing the identities of Dean and Sam Winchester, Jo effectively held the brothers prisoner in her family’s bar and repeatedly shows her abilities to hold her own against various enemies. Because her father died on a hunt, her mother is very protective of her, but ultimately can’t stop Jo from pursuing the hunting that’s in her blood. Similar to the Winchester brothers, Jo wears fairly basic utilitarian clothing.
Sally McKenna from AHS: Hotel
Also known as “Hypodermic Sally,” Sally McKenna (Sarah Paulson) is the ghost of a murdered junkie/dealer that resides in the Hotel Cortez. Her appearance is generally disheveled, with frizzy hair, smudged makeup, and ripped tights. She and Iris have a troubled relationship, as Sally caused Iris’ son’s overdose and Iris subsequently pushed Sally out of a window.
Madison Montgomery from AHS: Coven
A troubled teen star with witch’s blood, Madison (Emma Roberts) came to Miss Robichaux’s Academy alongside Zoe Benson and Queenie. She was also involved in the trials and tests to determine the next Supreme to succeed Fiona Goode. Though she was a successful actress, Madison was a true ice queen with bad habits, no remorse, and sociopathic tendencies. Compared to her peers, Madison’s wardrobe is a touch more glamorous and luxurious.
Gym Leader Sabrina
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, Sabrina reprises her role as the gym leader of Saffron City. Her own psychic abilities are tied to her affinity for Psychic-type Pokémon, and if you defeat her she will give you the Marsh Badge. Though much of her appearance changes from title to title and platform to platform, Sabrina retains a similar hair color no matter what.
