for his OC Shirley AKA Night Kitten
in a classic rail road track peril. Si I decided to put a little
holiday spin to this peril. Apparently Night Kitten was fighting
Krampus an lost this fight. This happens to a lot of heros and now she
has been left to meet the oncoming Polar Express rain. Somehow I did
not think that SHirley will be seeing Santa any time soon.
While being awful and careless to anyone but herself, Chloé is easily scared at danger, often by akumatized villains. Having helped caused some people to be akumatized, Chloé, to her horror and confusion, finds herself their victim for revenge. Despite some of the villains calling her out for her nasty behavior, Chloé disagrees with them, believing she is good. She remains awful most of the time, but occasionally, she shows a bit more kindness, sometimes expressing happiness about Ladybug saving her.
Audrey Bourgeois is the famous director of the fashion magazine, Style Queen. She is also the wife of Andre Bourgeois and the mother of Chloe Bourgeois and Zor Lee by different fathers. She was living in New York, but she is now currently staying in Paris with her family.
In "Style Queen," she returned to Paris to watch a "Gabriel" fashion show, but after being denied a front-row seat, she was akumatized into Style Queen, a glitter-themed villain. The first thing she did as Style Queen was turned Adrien Agreste into a glitter statue and then other spectators. When Chloé offers to be her assistant, Style Queen accepts but later turns her into a glitter stingatue when she catches her helping Ladybug. After being deakumatized, Audrey walked down the Eiffel Tower and back to the fashion show with Chloé. Despite Chloé's attempts to bond with her mother, Audrey dismisses her.In "Queen Wasp," after the events of "Style Queen", she watches Gabriel Agreste's fashion show. Afterward, she was approached by Gabriel himself, who apologizes for the misunderstanding and says that only the front row is befitting for Audrey Bourgeois. Then, she notices Marinette Dupain-Cheng's hat and takes a liking to it, even offering her a chance to come with her to New York to become a famous fashion designer. When asked by Chloé why she was taking Marinette instead of her own daughter, Audrey said it was because Chloé wasn't exceptional like Marinette, angering her to the point where she revealed Pollen and the Bee Miraculous to be in her possession. After she transforms into Queen Bee and takes off, Audrey calls her daughter a showoff and later calls her out on her irresponsibility after a subway train incident, causing Chloé to become akumatized into Queen Wasp. Once deakumatized, Audrey announces on live TV that there is nothing exceptional about her daughter. However, thanks to Marinette, she later learns that she has a lot in common with her daughter, takes back her earlier comment, and embraces her. She decides to stay in Paris and be a part of Chloé's life.
In "Malediktator," after hearing about Chloé's failed presentation, Audrey and Chloé demand that André close down the school and banish Marinette from Paris. When he cannot, she decides that they should move to New York instead and is annoyed when André refuses to come with them. When she and Chloé are confronted by Malediktator, Audrey tells her husband that getting himself akumatized does not make him a cool or hip father. While she rants, Malediktator turns her into a loving and devoted wife willing to stay in Paris with him. While under his spell, she constantly clings onto him affectionately and talks in a sweet tone. She takes a liking to the cat-like Cat Noir and begs Malediktator to let her keep him a little longer. After Malediktator's defeat, Audrey is turned back to normal and is furious with her husband for his actions, yet calms down when Chloé intervenes and suggests that they go home.
In "Mayra," Audrey, along with her husband and butler, are preparing to leave Paris on the Bourgeois helicopter but they are struck by Dark Cupid's arrows, causing their emotions about Chloé being a superhero to become negative. She is akumatized into a scarlet version of Style Queen as a result and battles Queen Bee, along with Malediktator and Despair Bear.
Audrey is a bossy and demanding woman who only accepts what she wants and is "exceptional". She is considered to be "the harshest fashion critic in the world" and has no problem causing a fuss for those who do not meet her demands, such as having an issue with the red carpet being made out of fabric instead of marble. Like her daughter, Audrey has a fierce, explosive temper and will get upset over minor things, such as being denied a front-row seat. She also will attempt to "fire" anyone who displeases her.
To an extent, Audrey seems to have little care for her family, or at least their opinions. She expects her husband to cater to her demands of firing anyone she dislikes. When she is akumatized, she does allow Chloé to assist her but fires her the moment she catches her helping Ladybug. However, this changes after Audrey learns how much she has in common with her daughter, deciding to spend more time in Paris with her.
Audrey is rather bold, she doesn't seem fazed by the Akumatized villains. In "Malediktator," she didn't seem worried by her husband's akumatization and even made non-stop remarks that it doesn't make him a better father. In "Queen Wasp (Queen's Battle - Part2)", when she was stung and paralyzed by a wasp controlled by her daughter, her position shows that she wasn't scared by her, to where everyone else in the hotel was paralyzed when trying to flee from Queen Wasp. She isn't ignorant about the dangers going on in Paris as seen in "Mayura" where she prepares to go off in the helicopter after the string of akumatizations by Scarlet Moth.
As Style Queen, she is more malicious and vengeful. Her main goal is getting revenge against Gabriel Agreste for giving her a second-row seat at his fashion show instead of a front-row seat. When he's nowhere to be found, Style Queen instead turns his son into a glittering statue along with bystanders at the show.
The history of the Krampus figure has been theorized as stretching back to pre-Christian Alpin traditions. In a brief article discussing the figure, published in 1958, Maurice Bruce wrote:

She takes immense pride in her family's department store business, and always seizes any chance to boastfully promote it through social media, filming and even in the school's talent show.
Nonetheless, it is later revealed that she is deep down extremely lonely, due to her father prioritizing money above her emotional needs and subsequently neglecting her. She, in fact, can be quite happy when he gives her the attention she needs.

Boscha bullies Willow and her friends Luz and Gus when they enroll at the Hexside School of Magic and Demonics. Because of her status as being the captain of the grugby team, Boscha is able to get away with most of her actions, with the teachers even stating that it could even apply to murder.
When Grugby season arrives, Boscha arrives to the school expecting to be greeted by a large crowd of admirers. However, the attention is instead directed at Willow who had reconciled with Amity. Envious, Boscha tries to bully her again, but Amity, keeping her promise, defends Willow and tells Boscha that she used to be like her but she grew up.
The bullying escalates to Boscha dumping garbage on Willow and harassing her and her friends. Eventually, Luz opts to challenge her to a Grudgby game. If Luz and her friends won, Boscha would be forced to cease her bullying. Boscha agrees stating that if she won, she would use Willow as target practice demonstrating it on tossing a ball at full speed at a tree which not only drills a hole into it, but the tree also explodes into flames.
During the game, Luz decides to call for a "forfeit" in Willow's defense. This causes Boscha to subject Luz to borderline horrific target practice.
Amity takes part in the game but ends up getting injured by Boscha who informs her that she had just ruined her social life to which she retorts that she believed that she made hers better. Unfortunately, Boscha's team won the game despite Luz and her friends' efforts because she caught the Rusty Smidge, thus also invalidating the entire game.
However, because of how well she played, Willow earns the respect of Boscha's team and is offered a spot but Willow declines it knowing that it would provoke Boscha's wrath. Despite losing her friends, she still isn't shown to be punished at the end.
Boscha is a rude and impudent witch, unafraid to insult and/or humiliate those she looks down upon with hardly any regret, especially Luz and Willow. Her major role in "Wing It Like Witches" shows her mean and rude personality more clearly, as she is shown being interested in bullying weaker and weirder people, like Willow, Gus, and Luz. She is also very controlling, often ordering her friends what to do as a ringleader.
She is obsessed with Penstagram, often using it to chat with her friend group, or to poke fun at somebody else; she even called it more important than a moonlight conjuring.
Despite her unpleasant attitude towards others, she does appear to have some respect for her friends. As seen in "Understanding Willow," she immediately stops romantically questioning about a cute ghost upon Amity's intervention. She also seems to have a soft side, as shown in her positive reaction and blushing to receiving her palisman, Maya, in "Hunting Palismen."

Selina had intended to set up a wildlife preserve, but industrialist corporation Multigon purchased the land from under her and set the foundation to build a resort. Though she and Bruce argued with the Multigon execs, their efforts were fruitless. Meanwhile, Catwoman broke into the complex. Though she was careful, she had been caught in the act: Red Claw sent spies to follow the burglar, and they discovered her secret: Catwoman and Selina Kyle were one and the same person.
Assassins attempted to kill Selina on the highway, but Bruce Wayne's evasive driving saved them both. Catwoman became ever concerned about the true nature of Multigon, and broke into the facility created in the mountains. She was captured, and tied together with Batman. Red Claw had stolen a plague and activated it to kill the two. She also manged to save Batman from the Joker, only to be knocked out by Harley Quinn.

for suggesting her.She is voiced by Clara Soares in French and Lisa Kay Jennings in English.
Lila is highly deceptive and crafty, being able to manipulate people exceedingly with her lies, Tikki even remarking she's never seen someone as skilled at lying as her. She is overly fond of attention and has no qualms with how she may acquire it, leading to her making up various false tales about herself towards her peers in order to garner as much attention as possible. Being a possible sociopath, she seems to view no harm in these actions and possesses no remorse for them, yet can be incredibly distraught if they are exposed. Furthermore, she also seems to envy the attention others receive, quickly becoming jealous upon realizing Adrien has a crush on Ladybug and going out of her way to make him feel the same about her. She also does not forgive people whom she thinks to have wronged her easily, as shown in her refusing Ladybug's apology for her harshly exposing her lies.
Her hatred of Ladybug, in general, appears to be rather petty and undying, with her being enraged at the attention she receives and willing to grab up any opportunity to get back at her for supposedly ruining her chances with Adrien. Thus, as Volpina, she takes great joy in beating and tormenting Ladybug, gleeful in nearly succeeding at taking her Miraculous twice by exploiting her emotions. Through her usage of her powers, she can be incredibly precarious in her attempts to overcome Ladybug and Cat Noir, almost never confronting them directly and using her illusions to fool and trick them into being where she needs them to be, although her arrogance in doing so seems to match her cunning.
As shown in "Catalyst (Heroes' Day - Part 1)", she seems to take pleasure in ruining Ladybug's reputation using her illusions even after being de-Akumatized, showing absolutely no remorse, making her the first of Hawk Moth's victims to genuinely enjoy her actions while Akumatized. Overall, Lila is vindictive, spiteful and seemingly detached from telling any sort of truth, making her one of Ladybug and Cat Noir's more clever enemies.
Lila has proven to be very sarcastic and bipolar, and she hates being called a liar while she is, despite the fact that when she is with more people and with Marinette she pretends to be nice to her.
In Central European folklore, Krampus is a horned, anthropomorphic figure described as "half-goat, half-demon", who, during the Christmas season, punishes children who have misbehaved, in contrast with Saint Nicholas, who rewards the well-behaved with gifts. Krampus is one of the companions of Saint Nicholas in several regions including Austria, Bavaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Northern Italy including South Tyrol and the Province of Trento, Slovakia, and Slovenia. The origin of the figure is unclear; some folklorists and anthropologists have postulated it as having pre-Christian origins.

In Crossing Paths, it was revealed that she had a crush on a boy she had gone to school with named Astin, who has a current-day counterpart with a similar name.
When she was old enough, she left home to become a Pokémon nurse. However, she was unable to go to a regular nursing school and went to the Pokemon Nurse School, which was intended for Chansey. She was quite skilled at things such as bandaging, and even showed a Chansey how to do it, which she quickly became good friends with. However, because she was not a Chansey, Jessie couldn't do things like use Sing to soothe Pokémon, instead falling asleep herself. Ultimately she failed to graduate, and on graduation day she simply packed a bag and left. As she was leaving, Chansey came up to her and offered her her nurses' hat, but Jessie refused to take it. Chansey then broke her egg-shaped pendant she got as proof of graduating in half and gave one half to Jessie so that they would have something to remember each other by. In the episode Ignorance is Blissey, Jessie was reunited with that same Chansey, which had since evolved into a Blissey.
It is assumed that she then enrolled in Pokemon Tech, a Trainers' school, where she met James, and subsequently failed and dropped out. After this, as revealed in The Brisge Bike Gang, Jessie and James joined a bicycle gang in Sunnytown, where Jessie was known for swinging a chain above her head as she rode her bike, acquiring the nicknames "Big Jess" and "Chainer Jessie".
It was revealed in Spring Fever that she was supposedly a model at one point.
Sometime before joining Team Rocket, and it is not known when, Jessie obtained a Contest Pass in the Hoenn region. Also during the years before Team Rocket, she had several boyfriends, all of whom left her and/or treated her badly. In Xatu the Future, she revealed that she had once worked at a TV station as the weathergirl. In From Cradle to Save, it was revealed that she once was a ninja.
Due to conflicts in canon between Kanto and Johto episodes and the special episode Training Daze, what happened between Jessie and James after the bike gang is unknown. What is known, as shown in the special episode, is that they joined Team Rocket separately and were on initially unfriendly terms after being grouped withMeowth but they quickly made up and became good friends.
Team Rocket member Wendy held a grudge against Jessie for failing to pay for a drink (making Wendy pay), but got her revenge when she added the charge to Jessie's overall Team Rocket bill. (However, Jessie revealed to Meowth and James later on that she didn't even like fruit smoothies for some reason.)

Verosika Mayday is a major antagonist in the adult animated web series Helluva Boss.
She serves as the main antagonist of the third episode “Spring Broken”, a cameo antagonist in the sixth episode "Truth Seekers" and a major antagonist in the seventh episode “Ozzie’s”.
She is a famous succubus in Hell and Blitzo’s ex-girlfriend, while also having a grudge against him after a couple of incidents when they were together.
She is voiced by Cristina Vee, who also voiced Elsa Granhiert in the English dub of Re: Zero - Starting Life in Another World.
While Blitzo drives Loona, Moxxie, and Millie to work, a car cuts in front of him and takes his parking spot. Blitzo recognizes passenger to be his ex-girlfriend, Verosika. After they insult each other, Blitzo tells her that she took I.M.P. only spot, but Verosika points out her name is on spot which is painted over I.M.P. She tells him that she freelanced for a successful company for the week and brought in to lead their team during Spring Break. After reminding Blitzo their history together, he follows her and demands her to move car or else, but is interrupted by her bodyguard, Vortex.
Blitzo, Loona and Moxxie enter the building to confront Verosika about the parking spot while Millie finds a temporary spot. Once they got there, Vortex informs them that Verosika rented the office space that’s across from them since there wasn’t room on the second floor. Moxxie goes into the office and tries to reason with Verosika, but she and her employees take on their fully demon forms and sexually assault him. Blitzo furiously storms into the office and challenges Verosika to a bet, if I.M.P can kill more targets than her demons can have sex with theirs by the end of the day, which Verosika accepts the bet.
As the I.M.P group killed their targets as many as possible, Verosika appeared on stage at her concert and her demons started to have their way with the crowd. As she sings, she throws her hip flask that had alcohol from Hell into the crowd and into the water, where a fish is mutated into a gigantic monster and attacks everyone. After Millie kills the fish monster and saves a drunken Moxxie, Verosika and her group mockingly compliments I.M.P. on how they handled the fish monster.
Millie tosses the hip flask back to her and warns her how bad it would look if they revealed that she was the one behind the fish monster. Verosika then tells them that they would also get in trouble for not disguised themselves as humans. Blitzo tells Verosika and her demons they won’t say anything about what happened if he can use their parking spot, which Verosika angrily accepts. Before they could leave the beach however, the police arrived and arrested the group, with Verosika hinting that she and her squad would have to pay them off with sex.
In episode "Truth Seekers", Verosika, along with Striker and Fizzarolli, appears as one of Blitzo's hallucinations. The hallucination of her calls him out for his selfishness and pushing people away to the point they become his enemies.
Verosika is a very seductive, perverted, and manipulative succubus that likes to taunt Blitzo for her own enjoyment. Despite keeping a calm attitude, she is shown to have a hostile grudge towards Blitzo due to their history together.

She is more intelligent than her brother and a
very cold-hearted, ruthless and determined person. She is older than
Mephisto by several minutes and it is typically her who comes up with
the plans against the princesses. Though she is harsh and mean towards
others, she truly does care for her brother. But Praxina dislikes
Earthly things, especially human romance.
The Twins have a
mysterious past, and no one knows their origins or who their parents
were. However, we only know that they have an uncle named Pappy (in
"Lucky Star"), who is a court jester that gave Mephisto a powerful staff
that has the ability to make people fall asleep and get their powers
drained (for Ephedians only).
Praxina and Mephisto arrived on
Earth from Ephedia to bring the Princesses (especially Iris) down by
stealing as much Oracle Gems as they can and bring eternal destruction
with the help from Gramorr. However, this resulted in multiple fails
where the Twins were forced to hear the painful yellings from their
master as loud that it spreads throughout the galaxy. This phase
continues until the last part of the final episode of LoliRock; Crowning
Glory, Part II.
During the final battle of the entire series,
Praxina and Mephisto (along with Gramorr) fought the Princesses at the
dead-end of the controlled Castle of Ephedia, even near the dead end.
When Iris sees that her friends Talia, Auriana, Carissa and Lyna are in
full danger, she loses control over her powers and transforms into her
intimidating and formidable Shanila form. Her battle against Gramorr
gets taken to the extreme, but unaware of the incident, Mephisto pushes
Praxina off the ground where a large, purple rock falls on him. In
horror, Praxina looks as she is forced to see the death of her brother
caused by a magical explosion from the rocks. Iris then loses control of
her blast-to-blast powers, and Gramorr stuns her until the fellow
princesses come to the rescue and help her defeat Gramorr for good. Iris
stands up, and the princesses altogether cast a powerful spell that
instantly kills Gramorr. Praxina survived nonetheless, but Mephisto and
Gramorr are nowhere to be seen until Banes arrives with half of
Gramorr's mask and gives it to Praxina, making her the Big Bad she is as
of now.
At the end of the final episode, Praxina (in her
current "badass evil" form) gets surrounded with butterflies (her
signature symbol) and is prepared for launching a surprise destruction
at Iris' loved one (implying that she is going to kill Nathaniel as
means of revenge for what Iris did to her brother, though this done by
accident since Iris couldn't control her Shanila power-up and therefore
has no remembrance of what happened).
Praxina is a very affirmed
person determined to obtain the Oracle Gems, and to destroy the five
Ephedian Princesses. She loves to belittle people, especially her
enemies and her twin brother, Mephisto, the latter of whom she reminds
that she was born before. She is extremely cold, ruthless, and hates the
Princesses at heart and wishes to destroy all of them. Her attacks tend
to be demonstrations of raw power with explosions and large summoned
monsters. She also is very bossy and has a soft side for Mephisto. She
also seems to be an animal lover and enjoys baby talking her creations.
The history of the Krampus figure has been theorized as stretching back to pre-Christian Alpin traditions. In a brief article discussing the figure, published in 1958, Maurice Bruce wrote:

In "Prison Break", after Sasha has talked several of the toad soldiers into abandoning their jobs, to Grime's chagrin, Sasha convinces him that being kinder to his subordinates may help get them in order, which proves to be correct. When a couple of giant herons attack the Toad Tower, Grime ordered his army to fight, but they were too weak to fight back. Seeing that Sasha can fight, the toad leader used her help to fight the herons. Sasha advised him to be friendlier to his army, which gained him an advantage. After the battle, Captain Grime offered Sasha one final mercy, which leaving his castle to find her friends or joining the toad army. She chose the latter, and he told her to meet him in the castle.
At the end of the episode "Anne of the Year", she and Anne meet again.
Sasha returned in "Reunion" to invite the frogs to have a party with the toads. When Sasha revealed that the party was a trap to execute Hopadiah, who has become a figure of rebellion, Anne tried to help the frogs escape, but all of them were surrounded by the toads. Grime asked for a duel between Anne and Sasha, which results in Sasha being defeated, but after the boom shrooms exploded, the tower collapsed. Sasha was about to fall until Anne had caught her just in time.
Knowing
Anne and the Plantar family could not hold her weight, Sasha
remorsefully said to Anne with parting words and tears in her eyes,
"maybe you're better off without me", and willingly let go to fall to
her death. Luckily, Grime would catch her before she reached the ground,
after which he looked at Anne angrily and escaped with the unconscious
Sasha and his toad army to an unknown location.
Sasha is a
charismatic and persuasive girl who is somewhat of a rule-breaker to
boot, as she eagerly encouraged Anne to steal the music box. Although
she comes off as manipulative and selfish, she is not without a caring
side, having promised to herself that she will find her friends who also
got stuck in Amphibia and take them back home, as well as persuading
Grime to be more affectionate for his soldiers.

for suggesting this gal.Nefera de Nile is one of the main antagonists of Monster High. She is the daughter of the Mummy and the evil sister of Cleo de Nile.
Nefera de Nile is a 2011-introduced and all-around character. She is a mummy and a Monster High alumni. As the oldest daughter of Ramses de Nile, Nefera is destined to inherent the de Nile throne and she's been raised to be well-aware of that. This has taken a huge toll on her, making her unable to function past the safety of high school and hostile to anyone she perceives as either a threat or too low to breathe the same air as she does. Nefera was a popular model in Europe for a short time until her attitude forced her out of the glamorous world and back to her father's pyramid. This doesn't stop her from telling everyone she is a fashion model, though, which in her mind she still is regardless if she's on the catwalk or not. Nefera's favored victim is her younger sister Cleo, whose every success invalidates Nefera's sense of superiority.
In the webisodes, she was voiced by Wendee Lee who also did the voice of Scorpina in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
Nefera was a princess of Egypt over 5,800 years ago and raised to inherit the throne from her father.
One day, a delegation from a far-off country arrived and gifted her a
corpse flower that was claimed to be a rare treasure only fit for
royalty. It became one of her most important possessions. When her uncle
committed a coup d'état, she took it with her when the family fled
underground, although as she later found out the plant manipulated her
into doing so. Despite that the queen had yet to join them, Ramses de
Nile already had the family wrapped with a magic cloth that would keep
them safe while their loyal followers would deal with the usurper. What
they didn't know was that they had no loyal followers left and that the
magic cloth was meant to keep them asleep forever. Nonetheless, they
woke up after 1,300 years, only to find the queen still missing and
themselves trapped within the hiding spot. As Ramses began to spend his
days looking for an exit and Cleo pessimistically enjoyed the luxuries
of their prison, Nefera was hit badly by both the loss of her mother and
her future and spent most of her time talking to her corpse flower. An
earthquake eventually damaged the prison enough to create a hole,
allowing sunlight in. As the family rejoiced, the corpse flower awakened
from her slumber and introduced herself as Amanita Nightshade. She
explained what truly happened during the coup d'état, revealed that the
family had been asleep for 1,300 years, and elaborated that they now no
longer fit the human world but must find their place in monster society.
When a caravan passed by, the De Niles' shouting was not enough to draw
attention, but Amanita was thin enough to get through the gap and
promised to return with help. She never did and the family eventually
got out on their own.
Nefera also appears to be quite deceitful, as she sometimes blames her sister for things that she has done, getting Cleo into trouble instead.
She's basically an older version of Cleo, relying on their family servants and not even looking twice at a task that seems beneath her. This is most likely due to her regal heritage, and the fact that Nefera would be next in line for their dad's throne since she's the oldest. Plus having the attention of being a "world-famous" supermodel going to her head makes her even more stuck-up and meaner than Cleo is. Either way, she's very bossy and has been since her and Cleo were little kids.
But
despite her nasty ways, Nefera can have her moments of kindness and has
shown the capacity to be a nice ghoul, as shown in "Kind: The
Shockumentary", after being told by Cleo that she was a great older
sister, she smiled sincerely and let the Kind Campaign leaders through
the door without being mean.
In Central European folklore, Krampus
is a horned, anthropomorphic figure described as "half-goat,
half-demon", who, during the Christmas season, punishes children who
have misbehaved, in contrast with Saint Nicholas, who rewards the
well-behaved with gifts. Krampus is one of the companions of Saint
Nicholas in several regions including Austria, Bavaria, Croatia, Czech
Republic, Hungary, Northern Italy including South Tyrol and the Province
of Trento, Slovakia, and Slovenia. The origin of the figure is unclear;
some folklorists and anthropologists have postulated it as having
pre-Christian origins.
In traditional parades and in such events as the Krampuslauf (English: Krampus run),
young men dressed as Krampus participate; such events occur annually in
most Alpine towns. Krampus is featured on holiday greeting cards called
Krampuskarten.
The history of the Krampus figure has been theorized as stretching back to pre-Christian Alpin traditions. In a brief article discussing the figure, published in 1958, Maurice Bruce wrote:
