Mombi is a character from the L Frank Baum Oz Books series, and appears in the book The Marvelous Land of Oz.

Mombi can not be considered a full witch but more of a magician who is very good at creating realistic illusions. She was the guardian of Tip, until he ran away. She also purchased the Powder of Life from Dr. Nikidik, and brought Jack Pumpkinhead to life with it.

In the movie Return to Oz, the character of Mombi was combined with head-exchanging Princess Langwidere from the third book in the series, Ozma of Oz.

Mombi and Tip also make a cameo appearance in Gregory Maguire's second Oz novel, Son of a Witch.
