Well, Regina isn't a strong, inspirational person because she raped someone. She's "strong and inspriational" because she shows that even those with the darkest of hearts can find redemption. She connects to those that have done wrong and fallen short of goodness and try to redeem themselves. Generally everyone has a moment in their life like that. It's not the magic or craziness she has, but her story.

Don't be talking bad about my girl, Zel. XD, She's quite intelligent, just a bit of her rocker, that's all. She's pretty much, just Regina's Regina, or even Rumple's Rumple. She's the villain of the villains, and not a hero. I like her for her wacky intelligence and there's potential in her, just like Cora. Plus, she's the only recurring villain.
