The enchantress first appears in the He-Man and the Power Sword mini-comic. This version boasts green skin and dons cobra-themed armor that later becomes associated with Teela in other media. In this narrative, the enchantress bestows her magical powers upon He-Man, consistent with subsequent depictions. This particular depiction of the enchantress is unique in its portrayal of her as having green skin; it would later serve as the basis for The Goddess character in the Masters of the Universe Classics toyline. In the Filmation series, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, the enchantress assumes a vital role as the guardian and mistress of Castle Grayskull's secrets, the source of He-Man's extraordinary abilities. With an extensive knowledge of magic and history, she stands among Eternia's wisest beings. He-Man frequently seeks her counsel, particularly when situations are at their most dire. In the Filmation series, the enchantress demonstrates saintly qualities such as humility, often providing guidance to characters in need. However, due to the fact that her powers are tied to Castle Grayskull, they weaken whenever she ventures beyond its walls. When travel is necessary, though, she generally assumes the form of a falcon known as Zoar. This weakness was removed from the character with the re-emergence of the Three Towers of Eternia, enabling her to roam freely in her human form. The enchantress is also Teela's mother, childhood friend of Prince Adam and Captain of the Royal Guard, whose fiery temperament contrasts sharply with that of her soft-spoken mother. When Teela was an infant, the enchantress entrusted her to Duncan (Man-At-Arms) for adoption, deeming Castle Grayskull a perilous place for her daughter to grow up. In the episode Teela's Quest, Teela sets out to uncover the truth about her mother from The Oracle of the Crystal Sea. She succeeds, but the enchantress deletes this revelation from Teela's memory for her own protection, despite longing to share it with her. Other than Man-At-Arms, only He-Man, Battle Cat, and The Oracle of the Crystal Sea are privy to this secret. Furthermore, it is established in this episode that Teela is destined to one day assume her mother's position as Castle Grayskull's magical guardian.
