Role in series
"Scavenger Pants"
She is a witch who lives in the Badlands outside of Bikini Bottom. SpongeBob and Patrick think she is the one Squidward says to find, when he was really referring to the "desert sandwich." The sand witch is revealed to have worked in an evil deli, as she creates a monster-like sandwich which brutally beats up Squidward.
"Necro-Nom-Nom-Nom-I-Con"
She first appears getting a hold of her spellbook at Books. Clerk then mistakenly hands her the "Breakfast Magic!" cookbook instead. She questions him if the book Clerk gave him was the magic book she needed, and Clerk says he was "pretty sure." Afterwards, she magically disappears from the library leaving a tiny flame behind, causing the building to catch fire.
Later in her house, she is seen cooking breakfast in a cauldron, confused at the ingredients. Eventually, she realizes that she got the wrong book and decides to find who has her spellbook. She then teleports to the Krusty Krab, seeing it has entered chaos with the customers' food transformation conditions, and the spell book transforming into the breakfast monster. She casts lighting at the monster, but it blocks the attacks and spews maple syrup at her.
When she saw SpongeBob, realizing that he was holding a spatula instead of a wand, she lends him wizard powers, and says that in order to defeat the breakfast monster was with "its mortal enemy," that being dinner. When SpongeBob launches a pot of vegetable stew at the monster, it grabs the witch, along with other customers, and consumes them. SpongeBob then launches a triple Krabby Patty at the monster, who eats it then explodes, spitting everyone back out. The witch picks up her spell book and offers SpongeBob if he would like to be her apprentice, complementing him how he handled magic. SpongeBob declines however, and the witch finds a patty in her book. She puts it in between two waffles and eats it, calling it a "Krabby waffle" and disappears.
Trivia
- Her name is a play on the word "sandwich" and also stems from her former occupation as a deli worker.
