Scylla is an evil witch who is the greatest enemy of Hugo. As the primary villain, she is featured in most Hugo media.
Description[]
Scylla is extremely vain, cruel and power-hungry, and always up to no good. She has terrible magic powers and a huge army of various minions, notably Don Croco, and usually lives in either her lair near the Troll Forest or in her various castles and other hideouts, including one in the Jungle Island. Scylla is especially obsessed with magically preserving her beauty and youthful looks forever, which often involves kidnapping Hugo's wife Hugolina and usually also their kids and then trying to stop him. In later games, her goals often involve gaining ultimate evil powers, and/or attempting vengeance against Hugo by destroying him or even all the trolls for foiling her previous plots. And so Hugo and his family members (Hugolina, the children Rit, Rat and Rut, and others) have to defeat the wicked witch's magic and minions and punish her evil again and again.
