Zinna

Origin

Zinna is the daughter of the witch Zamora and twin sister of Lynessa. She took her residence in The Land of Ak, a region in the east of Oz. As such she became known as the Wicked Witch of the East.

Creation

Like most characters of the Grimm Fairy Tales lore, Zinna has her inspiration in fairy tales or literature. Zinna is inspired on the Wicked Witch of the East from L. Frank Baum‘s children’s book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900).
