Zulema

Zulema is a witch who attends Cloud Tower and member of the Cloud Tower Elite.

Appearance
Her hair is wavy, deep purple with violet tones tied in braids and olive green extensions in her hair holding up two large side ponytails. She has blue eyes, a tan complexion, and purple lips.

Her civilian outfit is a cherry-purple collared dress with a dark grey corset covering hips and mid-torso, and gray laced combat boots that go just below her knees.

Personality
Like most witches, Zulema harbors negative opinions of fairies, taking every opportunity offered to fight them. She seems to have a hunger for power as she was willing to possibly forsake her own life in one episode in exchange for a chance to acquire more. She has a high sense of self-pride.

Season 6
Zulema begins her first year at Cloud Tower. Griffin introduces her and her fellow freshman witches to the rest of the student body. As per the enrollment process, the new students must demonstrate their worth. Zulema is hesitant and Selina decides take this opportunity to showcase the Legendarium’s abilities. After she finishes, the Trix break into the school and took over it by turning Griffin into a crow. Zulema initially looked worried and wary but the promise of world domination by the witches prompts her to join in the chant of approval with the rest of the witches. She leaves with the rest of them when they are dismissed to their rooms.

In "The Flying School," she and some of her classmates are called by Icy to deal with their intruders, the Winx. They were easily knocked out by Flora and Musa.

The Trix continue to try and conquer Linphea College and Zulema assists them. She and two other witches attack Miele which causes her to lose concentration and ends up getting hit by a Treant. Seeing Miele down, Zulema smirks and flies off to do other damage. They are eventually overpowered by four of the Winx's newly found powers and she is seen retreating with the other freshmen witches.

Later, Zulema has decided to join the Trix's elite group of witches. She is in Cloud Tower's main lecture hall where she is told by Lazuli that those who want to join must prove that they are strong enough. The test involves successfully passing through the Mirrors of Melstrum. Zulema has seen multiple failures and some ran away in fear but that did not deter her and she goes in. She successfully pass through the mirrors and exits them with a cocky, confident smile. The Trix had been observing the whole time and Zulema is allowed entry into their elite group. That is when Darcy and Stormy gives them their ultimate test - an attack Alfea.

And throughout the remainder of the series, she partakes in a few more attacks on Alfea. The Trix have provided her and the group intangibility and invisibility in hopes of a successful attack. She is often very cocky and confident during these attempted sages, enjoying every minute of the fairies running in fear. Nonetheless, Zulema and her team are defeated in the end by the Winx.

But trouble is brewing. Unknown to her, Acheron, the evil wizard who created the Legendarium, is released by Selina. He sends her school plunging towards the earth and because Acheron stripped all the magic from every magical being, she is left running around the school in a panic. Luckily for her and the rest of her classmates, the Winx eased the school into a soft landing.

Afterwards, Griffin returns. Thus, Zulema has to redo the entrance exam and is seen gasping and looking annoyed.
