Gelda

Gelda, also known as the Queen of Hearts, is a minor antagonist in Sinister Squad, played by Talia Davis. She is based off the character The Queen of Hearts in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.

Biography
Gelda is brought in to Looking Glass by Alice for her help in stopping Death. Alice requests that Rumpelstiltskin convince her to wear a bomb bracelet to ensure that Gelda will obey or die otherwise. Rumpelstiltskin does convince Gelda by telling her that it will be necessary for them to eventually escape and be happy together.

Temporarily agreeing to help Alice, Gelda uses her powers of control to force Bluebeard into obeying everything Goldilocks tells him to do. However, she quickly takes the first opportunity she has to break away from the others with Rumpelstiltskin. She is frustrated that he does not have a solid plan, but he tells her that they can escape if they can get the piece of Magic Mirror that Alice has in the armory. Gelda is still skeptical, but begins to trust Rumpelstiltskin more after he saves her from an attacking Messenger of Death.

Gelda makes her way to armory against Alice's wishes, and Rumpelstiltskin tells Alice that he will go talk to her to convince her to stay on the heroes' side. After he meets Gelda in the armory, she gives him the piece of Magic Mirror that he wanted. She asks for his complete devotion to her if he wants it, and he convinces her that he does love her completely. However, Rumpelstiltskin then stabs and kills Gelda for his own, different plan.

After Rumpelstiltskin becomes the new ruler of the Underworld, he is seen there with Gelda now in a seemingly happy relationship.

Personality & Relationships
Alice describes Gelda as "unhinged and unpredictable." She is a very impatient person and desperate for things to go exactly as she wants them to.

Rumpelstiltskin
Gelda was once in a relationship with Rumpelstiltskin, and the two used their powers together for their own gain. The relationship ended once Gelda married a king. She did not like the king, however, and remained infatuated with Rumpelstiltskin. She says that he was supposed to visit her but never did, leaving Gelda disappointed and upset with him.

Gelda is generally very controlling over Rumpelstiltskin, wanting him to do nothing except remain devoted to her. But despite her controlling nature, she does seem to genuinely like him. She is easily swayed by anything he does in her favor, and calls him nicknames like "Rumpie."

Alice
Gelda and Alice previously knew each other, but do not get along. Gelda particularly hates Alice and seems to think very low of her.

Abilities
Gelda has the ability to force men in to doing whatever she wants by speaking to them. This ability is said to only work in person, not through speakers, and it supposedly does not work on Rumpelstiltskin.
