Queen Gabnidine is the ruler of the "Intraterrestrials" in the story Howard tells in "To Smell and Back."
Description[]
She is the force behind the plan to extract the Ninja's "hero" in order to restore Magman, the hero who defends the Intraterrestrials from "the evil mantle-dwellers." She has the odd verbal tic of ending nearly all her sentences with a long drawn-out, "Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight?"
Appearance[]
Like all the Intraterrestrials, Gabnidine is green, with a crab-like four-legged abdomen, and a humanoid two-armed thorax and head. Unlike the others, she has a long hook-nose, and, whereas the others have yellow sclerae (whites of the eye) and black pupils, she has white sclerae and yellow irises/pupils; she also wears a very tall crown and carries a scepter.
Trivia[]
- She is not a real person in-universe, but exists only as the antagonist in the story Howard makes up for an English assignment from Mr. Bannister.
- Queen Gabnidine is the second female antagonist of the series, the first being the Sorceress.
- Nevertheless, since she refers to the Intraterrestrials' enemies as "the evil mantle-dwellers," Gabnidine presumably does not regard herself or her people as themselves "evil."
- Though a female, she is played by a male voice-actor, veteran actor-comedian Jon Lovitz, several of whose characters are known for catch-phrases like the Queen's, "Riiiiiiiiiight?"
- Somehow she knows who Howard is, declaring, "Howard and the Ninja defeated us — but mostly Howard!" A creature dwelling at the center of the Earth would be unlikely to know any one of the billions of people on the surface, particularly a random, not particularly distinguished 9th grader; this is one of many indications that Howard's story is wildly unlikely, even in-universe.
