If humor and crones are allowed, Granny Weatherwax, of Terry Pratchett's
Discworld, is a strong contender! And so is that "disgustin' old baggage"
Nanny Ogg. And Agnes Nitt, the triad's replacement for Magrat, developed
nicely in "Maskerade".
I really enjoyed Susan Sto-Helit's performance in "Hogfather", which also
has delectable continuing development of Hex, the computer at Unseen
University. (I wonder what ever happened to Eskarina from "Equal Rites".
If Granny is still going strong, Esk should be around somewhere.)
I did consider Constable Angua, but I think she's still too much under
Carrot's charismatic thumb. Have to see how she goes.
