Throughout Wicked, Nessarose Thropp was seen by everybody as the complete opposite of her sister, Elphaba, so it was a surprise that she eventually became known to Oz as the Wicked Witch of the East. Portrayed by Marissa Bode and a supporting character in the cast of Wicked, Nessarose is the younger sister of Elphaba and the younger daughter of Melena and Frixspar Thropp, who serves as the Governor of Munchkinland.

Does Nessarose Become An Actual Witch With Magic Powers In Wicked 2? Nessarose Casts A Spell To Keep Boq From Leaving Her ✕ Remove Ads Throughout Wicked, Nessarose doesn't display any magic powers and maintains her focus on her studies and her relationship with Boq. While Nessarose never rises to become an actual witch like her sister, Elphaba, in Act 2 of the Broadway musical, there are hints that she has magic powers of her own.
Posts Heartbroken to learn Boq has always loved Glinda, Nessarose uses the Grimmerie to cast a spell to ensure Boq doesn't leave her. However, she reads the incantation wrong and her spell causes Boq's heart to shrink and eventually turn into the Tin Man; this shows that Nessarose has hints of magic, but since she was never trained to use it, like Elphaba, she has no control over its results.
