Serpentina (or as others call her "Lady Serpentina") was a Medusa-like Gorgon monster with a mirror-coated shield (similar to the Aegis of Athena) for a weapon and was one of the Ten Terrors, In the episode "Hard Heads" she was the third Terror to fight the Rangers as the main antagonist.
Biography
Serpentina first appeared in twenty-fourth episode, when Necrolai found the cave of Terrors. Necrolai told the demons that the Master was defeated again, and Imperious was destroyed, and now the Terrors had to help conquer the Human World. She openly said that Octomus was growing incompetent. She also seems to not care whether Octomus is revived and agreed with Megahorn, both were annoyed that the Terrors should follow the Rules of Darkness according to the Stone of Judgement. Terrors agreed to help conquer the world. They arrived in the human world when the sky turned dark and told people of Briarwood to give them Light, who is actually Nick Russell, the Red Ranger and leader of Mystic Rangers. They easily defeated the Rangers' Manticore Megazord and left. 
TV STORY-The Light
She was the third to be chosen by the Stone of Judgement to face the Power Rangers. She had peered into the Book of Prophecy that Necrolai was reading and realized it was her turn to be chosen, and so she tricked Hekatoid to attack before her so that he would be able to get rid of the Rangers before she had to punish the humans. Although Hekatoid failed, he did manage to cast a spell on Nick and Vida that caused them to lose their ability to morph, giving the team a disadvantage. On her first appearance on the surface world, she fought Daggeron and the three remaining Rangers, who were forced into their Titan forms, due to Nick and Vida's inability to morph. Nick and Vida used a spell to knock her off balance, and Serpentina attempted to attack them when the other Rangers came to their aid. When Daggeron attempted to use Jenji's Shining Attack, Serpentina managed to get one of her snakes to bite Jenji and then activated her shield, turning Jenji to stone. She then challenged the Rangers by inviting them into her Serpent Dimension where she proceeded to swallow them in her giant snake form. She returned to the human world and set her sights on finishing the job by consuming Nick and Vida while they were still vulnerable. Rangers tried to battle her without their powers, but they were no match for Serpentina. However Itassis intervened, reversing Hekatoid's spell on them. Nick then defeated Serpentina with his Battilizer, causing Serpentina to regurgitate the other Rangers. She then grew into her giant form and summoned her snakes all over Briarwood, but before any of them could bite, Daggeron used the Solar Streak Megazord's furnace blast to suck up Serpentina's shield, causing all of her snakes to vanish. The Rangers then destroyed Serpentina with The Legend Striker Spin Attack. In her last breath, Serpentina warned the Rangers that Megahorn would avenge her destruction before falling and exploding, making her the third Terror to be destroyed, and the second Terror to be destroyed by the Mystic Rangers. Because of her destruction, the spell on Jenji was lifted and he was returned to normal. TV STORY-Hard Heads

Behind The Scenes
Portrayal
- She is voiced by Sally Stockwell.
Notes
- Sepentina's appearance is based off of Medusa (or a Gorgon), a mythological creature that is a woman with many snakes on her head that acts as hair, and has the ability to turn people into stone.
- Sepentina's abilities is similar to the Mystic Force monster Clawbster since both have the ability to turn the victim into stone, though in terms of firepower and strength, Serpentina is a lot more powerful then Clawbster.
- Serpentina also has a strong similarity to Freezard due to her snake motif and swallowing several Power Rangers whole and storing them inside her stomach.
- True to her theming of the Gorgons and snakes, she speaks in a hissing lisp.
- Of the Ten Terrors, Serpentina was the closest into defeating the Mystic Force Power Rangers, she has successful managed to defeat Xander, Madison and Chip the Mystic Rangers, and has even easily managed to defeat Daggeron the Solaris Knight, and with Nick and Vida not being able to morph, she would have been able to finish them off if Itassis hadn't remove the curses from Nick and Vida.
- Serpentina's name come from the words Serpent and Tina.
- Along with Megahorn, she has two forms.
- Her name is sounds slightly similar to Serpentera, which is fitting, since both of their designs are based on serpents.
