Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Elphaba, the main character who later becomes the Wicked Witch of the West, completely despises which of her schoolmates?

Answer: Galinda

 Galinda, a blonde and beautiful girl who later becomes Glinda the Good, and Elphaba, begin as enemies. Everything about them is different, but soon, their differences bring them together and they become friends.
2. Which student is madly in love with Galinda?

Answer: Boq

 Boq, being only a typical Munchkin, does not expect Galinda to return his affections, and he is quite right. Winkle is not a real character. Fiyero falls in love with Elphaba, and Avaric is just their friend.
3. Who is Fiyero's wife, who later lets Elphaba stay with her at the castle?

Answer: Sarima

 Sarima, Fiyero's wife from an arranged marriage, married him when he was only seven. They had three children and they lived in a grand castle.
4. Which Animal tells Elphaba to disguise herself as a witch?

Answer: Elephant

 The Elephant Princess tells Elphaba to disguise herself and live as a witch. Elphaba, although she can't do magic, decides to take her advice. Later, she moves in with Sarima with her son Liir.
5. How is Nessarose handicapped?

Answer: She has no arms.

 Nessarose is given a beautiful pair of silver shoes from her father, Frex. Elphaba has to put them on her feet for her because she has no arms to put them on herself.
6. What prank letter does Elphaba receive?

Answer: a letter from Galinda to come to the beach house

 Galinda's friend decides to play a prank and invite Elphaba to the beach house. She signs the invitation 'from Galinda' and when Elphaba actually shows up, the others get very mad at her.
7. Which of the following people die?

Answer: All of them

 They all die very sad deaths. Fiyero is killed by guards. Elphaba is melted by Dorothy, and Nessarose has a house dropped on her.
8. Who causes the tornado that kills Nessarose?

Answer: Madame Morrible

 Madame Morrible, who specializes in changing the weather, creates the tornado that falls on top of Nessarose. The girl inside the house, Dorothy, causes Elphaba to die.
9. Where is the name of the castle in which Fiyero, Sarima, and their children live?

Answer: Kiamo Ko

 The castle, where Sarima and Fiyero live, is where Elphaba goes to live. Sarima lets her stay after Fiyero's death, and Sarima's children call Elphaba, "Auntie."
10. Who is Nessarose's father?

Answer: One of them, no one knows which

 Melena, her mother, had a love affair with both of them, so no one knows which is the true father. Frex, however, cares for Nessarose and Turtle Heart dies.
