What's the name of that woman in Agrabah who sells magical stuff to the cast throughout the series? She has a heavy accent, her hair is wrapped in a cloth, and she's very greedy. Once sold them something without telling them the catch... I think in the moonlight madness episode she sold them something without telling them about the curse.

That's a good question, actually. Laughing

If she has a name it's never been mentioned. Iago called her "the hag" a couple of times in "Scare Necessities", and I just doing a quick skim through the eps she's in I can't find anyone else using an epithet for her. As for fans, I've heard her called "the sorceress", "the magic shop owner", and in the encyclopedia I think I called her "the fortune teller". So, anyway, no canon or fanon names; feel free to call her whatever you want. Wink

In "Moonlight Madness" she sold them information about a treasure but didn't tell them the treasure was cursed because Aladdin didn't pay the full asking price. I think you might be confusing that one with "The Day the Bird Stood Still": she sold them a rock ifreet call but didn't tell Aladdin the catch in time -- she was going to tell him...

Hm, I could have sworn she mentioned her own name at some point, like "____ knows..."

I just went back and watched the rest of the scenes she's in and didn't come up with anything; sorry. Except Iago also called her "the crone". Laughing

And I remember where I got "the fortune teller" from; it was in this episode guide. I am 90% sure it came from the series press kit. Smile
