Madame Leona is a character from the video-game Epic Mickey (2010). She is an alternate version of the character Madame Leota from the Haunted Mansion.
Biography[]
Madame Leona is an inhabitant of the Wasteland, a realm resembling Disneyland which was created by the wizard Yen Sid to serve as a sanctuary for forgotten cartoon characters and their discarded alternate versions. Madame Leona is believed to be a discarded alternate version of Madame Leota from the Haunted Mansion; however it is also possible given how Leota is a theme-park character that Leota is a theme-park character that Leona is one of the Wasteland's many sentient animatronics, made to resemble Leota.
Madame Leona would come to inhabit the library of Lonesome Manor, the Wasteland's version of the Haunted Mansion which was located in the swamps of bog-easy (a hybrid of Critter Country and New Orleans Square). It is well known that Leona was feared by the gremlins and Lonesome Ghosts of Bog Easy, although her exact relations with Lonesome Manor's other residents remain a mystery; namely Constance Hatchaway, the mad pipe-organ and the Mad Doctor who made the manor's attic into his evil laboratory.
Possibly due to the Mad Doctor's experiments and his following of the malevolent Shadow Blot, Lonesome Manor's pipe-organ went mad and used its power over the mansion to throw the estate into disarray. Devices in the library which were used to contain poltergeists within Lonesome Manor became damaged by thinner, a material which destroys cartoon material. This resulted in the poltergeists running amuck in Leona's library and possessing the books causing anarchy in the library.
When Mickey Mouse entered Lonesome Manor in-search of infiltrating the Mad Doctor's lab, he was forced by Leona to deal with the rampant poltergeists. Leona would go on to give Mickey optional tasks in dealing with the library's books and to restore portraits of hers which were destroyed by thinner using his magical paintbrush. If Mickey collects all of her books she rewards him with a silver pin, and if he performs all of her labours Leona uses her powers to destroy one of his enemies.

"Clobber, clobber the ugly Slobber.
Melt him away, and away he will stay."
Trivia[]
- Unlike most alternate versions of characters, Madame Leona presumably exists in the same continuity as (some mainstream variant of) Madame Leota.
- When Mickey Mouse uses thinner on Leona, she is not effected and states Mickey as being rude. Most cartoon characters melt from thinner so this indicates that at-least Leona's ball is of inert material.
