TARZAN
Enchanted Suns
Lord of the Jungle, Savior of Mufasa, Head of the Gorillas
•
Goals:
- To protect Kerchak’s Family
- To defeat the Cursed Thorns
- To keep Jane safe and happy
- To discover everything the new worlds have to teach him
RP Goals:
- Tarzan is the most fun to play when he’s not sure of what he should do: it would be interesting to have him doubt his loyalty to the Enchanted Suns or his role in the war.
ALADDIN
Enchanted Suns
Sultan-To-Be, Prince of Thieves
•
Goals:
- To defeat the Cursed Thorns
- To prove himself an effective leader in preparation for being Sultan
- To keep Jasmine safe
- To keep Agrabah safe
RP Goals:
- Aladdin has a problem with lying, still, after all this time, and he also has a heart for the every-man, for the poor. It would make sense and be fun to eventually (and secretly) switch his loyalty over to the Gilded Wings, especially if it means he has to lie to those in the Enchanted Suns, including Jasmine, and live a double life.
- Aladdin has a dark streak and it would be interesting to play him showing that if one of his family (Abu, Carpet, Jasmine, Genie, Sultan, Cassim) were in danger or he believed he’d already lost them.
SIMBA
Enchanted Suns
Future King, Insecure Father, In Mufasa’s Shadow
•
Goals:
- To defeat the Cursed Thorns
- To keep his family, especially cubs, safe
- To prove to himself that he can be like Mufasa
- To restore the Pride Lands
RP Goals:
- Simba worships his father but is so eager to prove himself that he can still make decisions as recklessly as he did when a cub. It would be great to shake his faith in his dad or have him disagree with a choice Mufasa makes—maybe strike out on his own.
- Simba adores his cubs but isn’t secure in his own fathering, so he has a set idea in his mind about how each of their lives should look. He believes Kiara should be responsible and take leading seriously the way he never did as a cub because he doesn’t want her to grow up unsure of herself like he is. He believes Kion should also respect tradition and follow instruction because secretly he worries his second-born will get jealous of Kiara and use his future position as Lion Guard leader the way Scar did. He believes Kopa should be more careful and less open to being friends with everyone in case he’s hurt while out adventuring recklessly one day. It would be great if this causes rifts in his relationships with his children: now Simba has a dad he can ask for advice.
- Simba is prejudiced against all hyenas and anyone who was loyal to his uncle. Any kind of interaction with Outlanders and Outsiders is good, but any kind of friendship between those characters and his children/family would really make sparks fly!
LILO
Enchanted Suns
Glue of the Family, Ambassador to Earth, Experiment’s Sole Caretaker, Stitch’s Dearest Companion
•
Goals:
- To find and secure the safety/loyalty of every member of her Ohana that has joined the war
- To keep Stitch out of trouble
- To avoid Nani at all costs
- To defeat the Cursed Thorns for the sake of the world and because the Grand Councilwoman asked her to
RP Goals:
- Lilo’s Ohana is everything to her, and that includes the Experiments she worked so hard to settle back home. I’d love it if she found out that some of them were on the wrong side and had to try and understand/fix that.
- Lilo believes that nobody gets left behind, but she totally left Nani and David and Pleakley behind at home, so consequences to that should be hilarious.
- Lilo’s ten going on eleven and her last crush was Keoni Jameson. I think we’re all ready for her to have a new crush.
- Any and all of the shenanigans with Stitch! But also, their friendship has been tested over and over. Jealousy comes from each believing that the other is their whole world. Any time Lilo has to learn all over again to let Stitch go, it’s the best. Any way that can happen!
DODGER
Gilded Wings
Streetsmart Mastermind, Stray Gang Leader, Observant Thief, Rhythmic Charmer
•
Goals:
- To keep the members of his gang family safe and together (Oliver, Jenny, Rita, Einstein, Tito, Francis, Fagin, and Georgette and Winston to a lesser extent.)
- To gain a reputation for himself and his gang all over the merged worlds
- To become “Top Dog” in the Gilded Wings
- To look out for “the little guy” during the war
RP Goals:
- Dodger is nothing at all if he isn’t the string holding together and directing his little family. His pet peeve is abandonment of any kind. Any plot line where a member of his little circle is on a different side or won’t join the Guilded Wings under his charge, or a similar plot where he is betrayed, will create the best drama with Dodger.
- Dodger is a major flirt. He hasn’t found the girl who can make him seriously consider commitment (maybe because he’s known Rita so long?) but he’s SO MUCH FUN TO PLAY when he’s romantically involved!
- Dodger and any of the other stray dog leaders. Disney loves em. Tramp, Cash, Buster, come meet Dodger!
- Dodger wants to climb the food chain and purely for his ego become a head figure of the Guilded Wings. Anyone looking to compete with him for that, set up goals for that, or manipulate him (hard to do) go for it! On a similar note, he doesn’t respond well to authority or rules that keep him from stepping to his own beat, so clashes with taking orders and the consequences of that could be fun.
- A plotline where he has a kid or innocent to protect and fails.
- A plotline where he is made to take the suffering of others because of the war seriously.
RANI
Unaffiliated
Night Pride Leader (In-Training,) Future Queen of the Tree of Life, Too Disciplined, Forfeited Childhood
•
Goals:
- CURRENTLY to learn about the war and report back home as fast as possible
- AFTER learning about the war, to join the correct side and prove to herself that she can handle responsibility without her grandmother’s guidance
- To stop any potential threats to the Tree of Life before they start
- To life up to her eventual roles and feel ready for them now so that she doesn’t have to worry about bad things happening to what she loves ever again
RP Goals:
- Rani doesn’t know how to be a cub anymore. She’s too practical and too guarded for one so young, and she has no idea. Anyone who can loosen her up is welcome to try.
- Rani isn’t a good judge of character. She’s very talented and well-trained, but she’s still a kid. If she were to be manipulated or betrayed, it would force her walls up even higher. She could turn villain just by someone convincing her that the Enchanted Suns are bad for the Tree of Life’s future.
- Kion and Rani end up together in the show, and as much as I love that, the Lion Guard show can only show romance in a vague, limited way. I love the idea of re-writing/digging deeper into their relationship dynamic from cubhood up.
- Rani has a lot in common with Zira’s cubs if you tilt your head and squint: especially Kovu. She’s been raised with not one, but two heavy mantles on her shoulders and she believes deep down that she lost her parents because she wasn’t taking those responsibilities seriously enough. Now she trains too hard and doesn’t really know how to play or relate to anyone outside the boundaries of her role. It would be fun to watch her interact with them, period.
- Rani’s parents were killed by that Nameless Lion with the Cobra Friend who gave Scar his scar in the Lion Guard (not saying that’s how it happened in the canon for Scar here, but he is a character) and anyone playing him or his Cobra Friend would be AMAZING to have Rani meet up again.
JANJA
Cursed Thorns
Loudmouth Rabble-Rouser, Upstart Teenager, Self-Proclaimed Heir to Hyena Clan, Ambitious Troublemaker
•
Goals:
- To get control of the Pridelands for food
- To gain the respect of everyone as a tough leader
- To secretly impress Shenzi
- To gain the following of all hyenas (especially Jasiri, though he doesn’t know it)
RP Goals:
- I 100% LOVE the dynamic between Janja and Jasiri, so as soon as she gets here, THAT.
- Janja thinks he’s tough but he’s not great at introspection so he doesn’t realize how much he wants his mom’s approval and respect. Any interaction between him and Shenzi is good, but I’d especially love for him to eventually get it through his head that Shenzi doesn’t respect him.
- Janja eventually questioning his allegiance to the Cursed Thorns, or even to his own clan. Fun to RP the dense idiot all conflicted and confused.
LEROY
Cursed Thorns
Superpowerful Wreckingball, Vengeful Lackey, Temperamentally Naive, Everything to Prove
•
Goals:
-ac To get revenge on the Pelekai Ohana
- To prove he’s the peak of Jumba’s achievements
- To destroy 626
- To serve Dr. Hämsterviel again
RP Goals:
- Leroy has no Hämsterviel to serve, and because the only thing he knows about his short existence is that he’s programmed to serve and hates Experiments who don’t follow their programming, this is interesting. It would be awesome to have him interact with any of the other Experiments nonviolently somehow, whether their on his side in the war or not.
- Leroy’s only been active and conscious for a short period of time, and without orders from his master to follow he actually has little to no life experience and struggles with the same feelings of not knowing how he belongs that Stitch once did. The difference is, Leroy gets frustrated instead of curious. It would be cool to have literally any character help him explore thinking for himself.
-Romance isn’t really in Leroy’s vocabulary but maybe it should be part of the whole new world he’s exploring.
DENAHI
Cursed Thorns
Haunted Hunter, Singleminded Bonehead, Brotherless Loner, Vengefully Lost
•
Goals:
- To kill the bear he believes caused the deaths of Sitka and Kenai
-To know what to do next
- To belong with a group again now that his brothers are gone
- To please the Cursed Thorn leaders
RP Goals:
-Denahi doesn’t know Kenai is the bear he’s hunting and is losing his mind the longer it takes him to avenge his brothers. Because he’s so focused on this, he’ll do anything to achieve it, which is why he’s with the Cursed Thorns in the first place. Any character who can manipulate his boneheaded goal and take advantage of him would work well.
-Denahi’s lonely. He’s not a bad guy and he really needs something to fill the hole punched through his world by his brothers’ “deaths,” because it’s sucking the rest of his life away. Whether that something looks like romance or friendship, both would be interesting to see because the individual would have to get through to Denahi and show him there’s more life left to go after killing the bear.
BEAST
Cursed Thorns
Disgraced King, Gentle Giant, Explosive Temper, Heartbroken Failure, Deceived Hero, Brooding Overthinker
•
Goals:
- To become human again
- To please Thorn Sorceresses
- To protect Belle and his servants and keep his kingdom out of the war entirely
- To stay out of Belle’s sight until he’s human again
RP Goals:
- Beast is torn between doing anything to be human and reunite with Belle again, and yet not crossing any lines or doing anything monstrous that she would hate him for. He believes that the Enchantress did this to him though it was really Maleficent, and also believes that only the Cursed Thorns can change him back eventually. So he balances on this knife’s edge of doing what the evil ones want while trying to remain the hero Belle married without having her around to help. Any villains wanting to blur that line for him or further ensnare him into the Cursed Thorn service is perfect. Having your character find out the truth about why he’s there and how would mean they could manipulate their way into having a pet Beast pretty easily.
- Beast left Belle after a huge fight and though he wants to return, he’s terrified she won’t take him back now that things have gone so far. If Belle were threatened, he is helpless, and would be easily manipulated to do anything to keep her safe.
-Beast has no ties to the Cursed Thorns beyond their supposed ability to make him human again. This could change and be even deeper of a plot if he actually makes friends or Cursed Thorns complicate his situation by getting into his heart. Especially because Belle has allied herself with the other side.
-Beast will eventually be used as the ‘dragon guarding the keep’-type position, guarding the dungeons and enemy prisoners. Any prisoners understanding his situation or meeting and interacting with the unwilling villain would be good.
TAIWO
Enchanted Suns
Lonely Scamp, Imaginative Playmate, Hopeful Orphan
•
Goals:
-To reunite with his brother, Jaribu
- To make real friends, particularly with other lion cubs
- To keep his mind off of missing his family
- To eventually learn who his father was
RP Goals:
- Taiwo is very chill and bachelor-lived with Jaribu most of his short life. I’d love for him to have a cub romance with one of the more responsible, uptight girl cubs. (Vitani, Zuri, even Kiara or other OCs are all options)
- Taiwo actually dislikes being alone, though he’s developed pretty interesting coping mechanisms for it. He craves family and playmates. Having someone older and wiser make him take life in general more seriously would be fun, tracking his growing maturity. Eventually it leading to him taking an interest in the war, and in finding out where Jaribu is himself or who his father was, could be an excellently dramatic character arc!
-Someone adopt Taiwo! It may have to be after he’s given up on his brother or father in some form, but he’s still super little and needs someone to love him.
KRON
Cursed Thorns
Merciless Drill Sergeant, Immovable Leader, Ruthless Survivalist, Cruel Shepherd
•
Goals:
- To defeat the Enchanted Suns
- To remain in control of the Nesting Herd
- To meet the expectations of the Cursed Thorns leaders
- To keep Neera safe
-To crush anyone in the way of his gaining new nesting territory
RP Goals:
- Kron believes he’s one hundred percent right about the whole “only the strong should survive” worldview. To have someone shake that worldview would be interesting.
-Kron only cares about Neera, but if some bright spark of a Cursed Thorn apprentice proved themselves to be strong and wormed their way into Kron’s crusty old heart, I’d love for him to mentor someone.
- Kron fears change and a lack of control. Any dinosaur character looking to take over his herd, or Cursed Thorn out to get his job, would be an excellent plot.
THE EVIL QUEEN
Cursed Thorns
Dark Alchemist, Black Magic Expert, Shapeshifting Veteran, Calculating Matriarch, Terrifying Beauty
•
Goals:
-To destroy the Enchanted Suns
- To exploit and experiment on any new form of magic she comes across
- To prove she is the only deserver of beauty and happiness
- To maintain her position as second-in-command
-To destroy Snow White’s happiness by killing her Prince, then killing Snow White
-To reclaim her kingdom
RP Goals:
- Regina is an expert in black magic, particularly disguise/transmogrification. She loves to practice her dark arts. It wouldn’t be hard for any character looking to be magically different to convince their Queen to do her stuff. Any Cursed Thorns angling for a supernatural favor for the Queen would be fun fun fun! (See “Bubbling in the Dark”)
- Regina has this thing against young, beautiful, good, innocent and happy princesses. She doesn’t believe anyone should be pretty and get what they want without working for it, and she sort of doesn’t believe anyone but herself has ever worked to get to royal power. So she hates princesses. Interaction with Cinderella, Belle, or anyone like them might get ugly, but if you’re looking for a villainess to put your princess through the emotional wringer I have the one for you!
-Regina lost her love long ago but it would be interesting to see any man try for her black heart.
-Regina may hate princesses but any apprentice looking to be her slave might get to work their way up into being an evil laboratory or alchemy assistant. That would be fun!
-Regina is focused and manipulative. Whereas Maleficent might not concern herself with the fate of single Enchanted Suns members, Regina would have no problem working out a long, involved plan to cause trouble and pain to just one or two heroes. I can easily see her stealing loved ones, or pretending to be a loved one and betraying said hero just for the look on their face, or casting mayhemic spells to ruin two heroes’ relationship...just for fun. Let me be your devil’s advocate!
CONNOR
Gilded Wings
Brooding Hothead, Protective Older Brother, Inexperienced at Heroism, Reshaping Worldviews, Insecure Loverboy
•
Goals:
- To keep little bro Raoul safe and away from Zootopia’s Tundratown and their criminal parents
- To advance and be useful to the Gilded Wings while hiding out with them
- To prove he isn’t like his dad and mom and can do the right thing
- To figure out what the right thing is
- To be worthy of Colleen even if he never sees her again
- To impress Robin Hood and Flynn Rider
RP Goals:
- Connor will probably run into Colleen again, and the more connected and dedicated to the Gilded Wings he’s become by then, the better.
- Connor is socially prickly, so he comes off as a lone wolf when actually he just wants people to like and respect him, even though he himself doesn’t realize it. He needs a friend, maybe one his age, for camaraderie and to get out of his own head. Losing that friend, however that looks, would be good too, but let’s start with having one in the first place!
- Connor isn’t secure in what he believes anymore. Anyone who wants to question his upbringing as a gang member, make him question his morality and views about other animals, would be in for a very confused and temperamental wolf.
-Connor is trying to keep his home in Zootopia and where he and Raoul came from a big secret. He doesn’t want anyone from Zootopia (especially cops or anyone from Tundratown) to trace them, so he’s a bit paranoid and tight-lipped when it comes to that. If anyone in the Wings were to start asking him questions, especially authority figures he’s looking to please, that could blow up into something dramatic.
-Connor has a soft spot for kids that he won’t admit to. Throw ‘em at him.
-Connor’s hung up on exactly one (1) girl. Having any other lady friend try and get through to him would be interesting.
-Connor went savage once as part of Dawn Bellwhether’s plot. He was pretty psychologically smacked by that. Any interactions with her, Judy, Nick, Lionheart, or anyone associated with that would be fun, or really anything that has to do with his fear of going all mindless again.
BASIL
Unaffiliated
Razor-Sharp Observer, Brilliant Deducer, Eccentric Hero, Master of Disguise, Unconventional Scientist, Dog Trainer, Jack-of-All Trades, Relentless Pursuer
•
Goals:
- To find out if Professor Ratigan is alive and bring him to justice
- To fill his mind with useful facts about the Merged Worlds
- To keep his few friends safe (Dawson, Judson, the Flavershams, Toby)
- To protect the greater good of Mousedom
RP Goals:
- Basil is not good with kids. Make him interact with them!
- Any interaction with members of the RAS would be so cool.
-Basil is a crack detective, specifically in missing persons cases. (Not only did he find Mr. Flaversham, but the first paper introducing his character was a missing persons case too) Any Suns or Wings or even Thorns (provided they somehow keep their allegiance secret from the heroic mouse) missing a friend or family member should come to Basil and cool plots could ensue.
- Basil likes to show off. Being given a position of honor by any higher-up in any of the factions would be tempting to him.
-Basil is learning to think more of the greater good than of the importance of his own right mind, but he still has a huge pride issue. If anyone can outwit him, make him feel incapable, that would be delightfully tragic.
-Basil doesn’t have room for flowery emotions. If a pretty lady could somehow make him feel out of control of his senses and thinking, romance would be fun!
GENO
Enchanted Suns
Future Young Prince, Thoughtful Youngster, Overthinking Worrier, Type-A Student, Great Prince’s Grandson, Gurri ‘s Emergency Break
•
Goals:
- To keep Gurri out of trouble and survive her chaos
- To be a good son, grandson, and future Prince
- To learn everything from being a leader to understanding other lifestyles
- To be helpful to Bambi and Faline
- To impress the Great Prince
- To learn what it means to live in a world at peace
-To learn how to be as brave as his lion cub ‘cousins.’
RP Goals:
-TWITTERPATED. Someone make a lovely little doe he can fall for who can show him girl fawns aren’t all as insane as his sister.
-All interactions with the Great Prince, his father, and any leaders in the Enchanted Suns because Geno is obsessed with studying leadership currently.
-Introducing Geno to the Gilded Wings. He’s tender hearted and hates the idea of bloodshed and injustice, and little does he know there’s a faction out there that actually doesn’t participate in those things, either. But he loves following the rules and being helpful to his parents, so he’d be conflicted which would be awesome.
-I’d like Geno to start maturing enough to take on leadership roles, even among the kids, whether that has him butting heads with his sister or other kids or not.
