Endora Lenox is the only child of powerful witch Tabitha Lenox--the product of a drunken one-night-stand with billionaire Julian Crane. Born on July 28, 2003, Endora is a very powerful witch, more powerful even than her mother; while Endora's magical side does give her a bit of a devilish attitude, her father's mortal genes have granted her the ability to love. As a result, she appeared to have the desire to become a good witch, despite the fact that her mother's line has contained only bad witches for numerous generations. Also, while Endora does not actually speak, she communicates through word balloons that only certain people can somehow understand (most notably Tabitha and Father Lonigan).

Though Endora's father is Julian Crane, only Julian, Tabitha, Ivy Winthrop, Kay Bennett, Esme Vanderheusen, and Endora herself know of her true paternity until the very end of the series. Though Endora has a fondness for her father, she uses her magic to hurt him when he tries to sue for partial custody of her. Endora is also quite fond of her half-brother, Fox, and shows some affection for her half-sister Fancy, whose baby pictures Endora greatly resembles.

Endora's fondness for good often clashes with her mother's plans for evil; Endora frequently foils her mother's plots to push Miguel and Kay together, wanting Fox to be happy with Kay. Eventually, Tabitha is forced to accept her daughter's good disposition and remove her from Julian's elite Paul Revere Preschool and enroll her in her archnemisis Esmerelda's Good Witch School.

Due to Tabitha's failure to do evil, the Boys in the Basement kidnap Endora, also taking Miguel Lopez-Fitzgerald when he tries to rescue her. The Boys promise to return Endora once Tabitha returns to doing evil; Endora returns to Tabitha briefly, but when Tabitha mentions ending her bad works with Endora back, the dark forces quickly take Endora back. After Tabitha's deceased doll-turned-real-boy, Timmy, appears to Tabitha and tells her that doing evil would not bring Endora and Miguel back, Tabitha decides on Christmas Eve to try good deeds to reclaim her daughter, assisting in the reunion of Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald and Fancy Crane. After her act, Endora and Miguel magically reappear in Tabitha's kitchen.

Endora conjured herself up her very own familiar, a white kitten which she named "Snowball", much to Tabitha's dismay.

Endora serves as her mother's conscience throughout her tenure on the series, helping her to see the goodness in others. It is Endora who encourages her mother to sacrifice her powers and be baptized in order to rescue the citizens of Harmony from both a toxic mushroom sauce and an erupting volcano. Endora also displays courage in helping her mother defeat the Demon Elf.

Famous quotes containing the word lenox:

    Droning a drowsy syncopated tune,
    Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
    I heard a Negro play.

    Down on Lenox Avenue the other night
    By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light
    Langston Hughes (1902–1967)
