Baroness is a fictional character from the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero toyline by Hasbro, originally appearing in the first issue of the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero comic series by Marvel Comics in June, 1982. The Baroness is a villainess, associated with the G.I. Joe Team's nemesis Cobra.

Baroness serves as Cobra's intelligence officer and lieutenant to Cobra Commander. With long dark hair, black-rimmed glasses, and a black leather outfit, Baroness is a dark, sensual femme fatale whose beauty is matched only by her ruthlessness. She is often portrayed as being romantically involved with Destro.

She was the first character to cross over from the comics into the animated series and finally into the toy line. She made her debut as an action figure in the 1984 series, wearing a new uniform that was then carried back over to the comic and cartoon. The character was portrayed by actress Sienna Miller in the 2009 film G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra; she is portrayed by Úrsula Corberó in the 2021 film Snake Eyes.
