## History

### Backstory

Winona was the only daughter of Lord Edrick Windwaker, the Earl of Skyward Stalk, and his second wife Lady Sabryna Von Tarantel, who was the last of her line. She had an older brother who predeceased her father, as well as two older half-sisters, Maria and Vanessa. At an unknown point prior to the events of *Wars of Frozen Flames*, Winona was married off to Berwick Python, a union that was arranged by Lord Birchard Python, Berwick's father and the Earl of Bristlewood Bay, and Winona's father. When Winona's father died, she became the heiress to his lands and titles as well as her mother's, despite her half-sisters Maria and Vanessa still being alive and having issues of their own with their husbands Sigmund Phoenix and John Tyebolt respectively, with the explanation for this being that Lord Windwaker's second wife, Winona's mother, was of a wealthier family than his first wife. As a result, Winona's husband, Lord Berwick, became one of the wealthiest land-owners in the Koopa Kingdom. She and her husband would have two daughters, Lilyanna, nicknamed Lily, and Rosanna, nicknamed Rose, prior to the series, both of whom would be primarily raised by their mother at Twinsy Tropics Castle.

### The Feeble King

#### Parts I and IV

Winona is first mentioned in the very first part of *The Feeble King*, been stated to have dropped off her daughters Lily and Rose at the Sherbet Castle, but otherwise makes no appearances in the episode or the other two subsequent parts.

Winona makes her debut in Part IV, first appearing to scold Rose for being immersed in her books, as opposed to try looking for a husband as her and Berwick want her to. Winona tells her daughter that she won't ever make friends if she doesn't talk to anyone, only for Rose to tell her mother that she had friends back in Bright Valley prior to the Battle of Whomp City. Winona correctly guesses that Rose is referring to Lady Jane Phoenix, and as such warns her that if she were to step foot in Bright Valley to see Jane again, she would be immediately apprehended by Kayenne supporters due to the outcome of the battle, something that Rose proceeds to blame her father of. Winona scolds Rose for this and calls her ungrateful, stating that Berwick is just doing what he can to make the realm a better place for everyone, adding that Jane's uncle, Lord Sigmund Phoenix, was a traitor to the realm and thus his kin can't be trusted. Winona tries to encourage Rose by telling her that they will find better friends for her.

A few days later, Winona invites Lady Tulisa Python and her children Tobias, Rickon and Ursula Koopa to spend some days at Twinsy Tropics castle while their husbands are away on Skyland and the Bohnenkraut Kingdom respectively. Tulisa informs Winona of the argument she and Richard had with their eldest son, Robert, to which Winona is sympathetic towards. After this, Winona invites her guests inside, all of whom proceed to do a different activity. Later in the day, Rose and Rickon sneak out of the castle to go to a bar without any of their mothers noticing it.

## Appearance and Character

Winona is an average noble lady in the late fifteenth century, being one of the wealthiest heiresses of the Koopa Kingdom. She appears to be around Berwick's age, and her appearance matches that of his family, tying her long-red hair into braids that resemble snake-like tails. She primarily wears red and sky-blue, reflecting her Windwaker bloodline, wearing a red shell with blue rings around the spikes, red heels with blue jewels in the center, and several bracelets and necklaces around her neck and ankles, featuring red and blue gemstones, the larger of which reflect the shape of Scuttlebugs, referencing her Tarantel heritage.

She is very similar to her husband Berwick in terms of personality: she is showcased as a strict and imposing woman, being heavily invested in her husband's political affairs, believing that he is always in the right and supporting him in every single decision he makes. Much like Berwick, Winona is shown to be somewhat of a control freak, always liking to have things under her control, as shown by her insistence in that Rose never sees Lady Jane Phoenix again and that she finds a husband that both her and Berwick would approve of. Outside of this, Winona is shown to be an affable and well-mannered woman, keeping a calm and collected tone of voice at all times regardless of the situation.
