Endora is an ancient (she admits to 1000), extraordinarily beautiful, wise, and very very powerful witch-goddess.  Married to (and now separated from) the warlock-turned-Shakesperian-Actor Maurice at a young (for a witch) age, she has one child, Samantha, who is the light of her life.  Samantha's marriage to a mortal named Darrin Stephens is most upsetting to Endora, who envisioned far greater than diapers and dirty dishes for her sole offspring. Red haired, blue eyed and with a perfect figure, Endora is not a woman who is content to coast through life on good looks alone.  She is intelligent, highly original, charming, witty, sophisticated, glamourous, tempestous, outspoken and a welcome (except by Darrin) addition to ANY social gathering.  Endora speaks every known language in the universe, designs clothes for her couterier, is a sought after lecturer on the Witches Council Convention circuit and commands much respect in both the supernatural and the natural world, impressing (and intimidating) even the likes of Larry Tate!  Endora is also a loyal mother and friend, but when crossed (which Darrin does on a regular basis....some people never learn) she is capable of anything and everything from pulling a chair out from under someone to turning them into a toad! Besides tormenting Darrin, Endora enjoys hanging out with gurus, mountain climbing, camel polo, surfing, performing recitiations of her original poetry works (the most famous of which is "Twas the Night Before Halloween") lunching and shopping around the world, reading Harpies Bizarre, and spending time with her daughter and grandchildren.
