Her callousness and sense of entitlement is most clearly demonstrated when she uses the Deplorable Word in Charn to vanquish her sister, even though the Word would eradicate all life in that world but her own.

"The speculation is probably reinforced by the set of character sketches included in some later editions of the books. One sketch describes Jadis as ""completely evil, even in ""The Silver Chair""."" Since it is the Lady of the Green Kirtle who appears in ""The Silver Chair"", some conclude that this must refer to the Green Lady. The character sketches, however, are recent additions to the books; they were not written by Lewis, and, in this regard, are not supported by Lewis's text.

By this time, Narnia's humans have either died out or had been driven out (though humans remained in Archenland and Calormen at the time). Jadis feared a prophecy that ""when Adam's flesh and Adam's bone sit at Cair Paravel in throne, the evil time will be over and done."" Her spies were thus always watching for human intruders.
