"Plover wrote about her, called her the Winter's Doe. She lives in the Darkling Woods, just past the Flying Forest. It's not far from here. We could hunt her together."
""Let's go hunt the White Lady"? People like me get shot for saying shit like that."
Quentin Coldwater and Penny Adiyodi[src]

The White Lady, also known as the Winter's Doe, is one of the seven Questing Creatures of Fillory.

Biography[]

Captured by Quentin Coldwater[]

The White Lady was first seen by Quentin Coldwater at the Retreat during his recovery following the Duel at the Wellspring. The next day, Quentin and Penny Adiyodi tracked and captured her, hoping she could grant their wishes. After a short argument over how many wishes they would get, The White Lady clarified that she would grant each of them one wish. First, she granted Penny's desire to regrow his severed hands, then asked Quentin what he wished for. However, When the White Lady told Quentin she could not bring Alice Quinn back to life, he instead asked her to send him 'home', and she transported him back to New York City.[1]

Death in the 23rd Timeline[]

After Alice Quinn from the twenty-third timeline resurrected Quentin Coldwater, he defeated Martin Chatwin and became the new Beast. After defeating Martin, Quentin killed and ate the Winter's Doe, leaving nothing but her horns afterward.[2]

Magic and Abilities[]

  • Magical Creature Physiology: As a Questing Creature, the Winter's Doe possesses her own magic independent from the Wellspring, allowing her to grant wishes even when the Wellspring was tampered with by Ember. As one of the seven Questing Creatures of Fillory, she has the ability to grant those that capture or corners her three wishes.
    • Reality Warping: The Winter's Doe must grant their pursuer a wish. However, she has her limits as well. By her own admission, she cannot bring someone back from the dead nor can she restore Niffins to their human form.
    • Enhanced Senses: The Winter's Doe could tell that Quentin Coldwater had been "rebuilt" by the Centaurs, as well as his status as a king of Fillory.
