The Magic of Oz

General Jinjur

also Jinjur

The girl who raises an Army of Revolt and takes the Emerald City from the Scarecrow.

First named in The Marvelous Land of Oz, ch. 8

Jinjur spoke these words with an eagerness and decision that proved she was in earnest.

As the books describe them

She wore a costume that struck the boy as being remarkably brilliant: her silken waist being of emerald green and her skirt of four distinct colors—blue in front, yellow at the left side, red at the back and purple at the right side. Fastening the waist in front were four buttons—the top one blue, the next yellow, a third red and the last purple. The Marvelous Land of Oz, ch. 8
Seated within the glittering throne was General Jinjur, with the Scarecrow's second-best crown upon her head, and the royal sceptre in her right hand. The Marvelous Land of Oz, ch. 15
