List of Dave the Barbarian characters
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following is the list of characters in the Disney Channel series Dave the Barbarian.
Contents |
A huge, muscular barbarian war-prince who would rather knit and cook than fight evil. A gentle giant, Dave is afraid of many things, and at least once an episode he will be frightened somehow and shriek his high-pitched, effeminate scream. He is allergic to many things.
The youngest of the three siblings, Fang is a very rambunctious and uncivilized girl who loves to smash things. She resembles a cross between both Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm of The Flintstones and is the victim of a running gag where she is often mistaken for a monkey (however, she finds a group of monkeys who look exactly like her.), hence her catchphrase, "Not a monkey!" (however during the fight against Chuckles and the Vermites, just after receiving the insult, she jumps for a bunch of bananas and begins shouting like a monkey). She is too small to fight most of the time and resents Dave (who is very strong) because of his cowardice. Like her Uncle Oswidge, she secretly likes to play with dolls, but doesn't like people to know. In one episode where the castle is being destroyed, she cries "All my dollies are in there!", then quickly tries to cover up what she just said. Fang wields a spear in combat. Fang is voiced by Tress MacNeille.
Left in charge while the king and queen are away, Candy has a contemporary "valley girl" attitude and would rather shop and hang out than rule a kingdom. Candy's main ability is her martial arts skills. She is rather selfish, but gets over that in a small way while helping Hamwise and his wife defeat the nefarious Invisigoths. Candy is voiced by Erica Luttrell, she has used the quote "Don't mess with the princess" on a number of occasions and has referred to herself also as a Barbarian, she has displayed the most strength out of the family often when it comes to monsters destroying a shop or so, whether or not she is stronger then Dave remains unseen but out of the two; she is the one willing to use it.
The shrill, impatient and sarcastic talking enchanted sword in Dave's scabbard, this weapon with a Brooklyn accent has a tendency to insult Dave or the others when she sees fit. Her main ability is shooting a lightning bolt from the tip of her blade. She was once the sword of Argon the Ageless, but was used by Argon as the nose of a snowman, and left there for centuries. She is 20,000 years old and is related to many other magical weapons, including mighty Mjolnir, hammer of Thor, and the trident of the water god Poseidon. Lula is voiced by Estelle Harris.
Dave's uncle, likely on Glimia's side of the family, though this is based solely on appearance. A rather clumsy sorcerer who usually wreaks havoc with his spells rather than being useful. Far from the stereotypical sorcerer (it was revealed in one episode that he never really went to sorcerer school, he just worked in the cafeteria), Uncle Oswidge loves to eat and presents a rather unkempt appearance. Like his niece Fang, he secretly likes to play with dolls. His favorite food is ham and he cannot resist it. He also can't resist something called "Nut Logs". His most powerful spell is "Benzoyl Peroxide!". Oswidge is voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson.
The family's idiot, potato-shaped pet dragon. Unlike most dragons, he breathes lightning and is domesticated, plus he doesn't have a tail. He does possess a wild streak that can be revealed when around other dragons, particularly evil ones with rebel attitudes. Faffy's name might be a parody of Fafnir's, a legendary dragon of Norse mythology. Voice legend Frank Welker provides the "voice" (mostly squeaks and snorts) of Faffy. It is mentioned in the show that Faffy has a one digit IQ. In the episode "Bad Food", it is revealed that he can talk.
Rulers of Udrogoth, the parents of Dave, Candy and Fang. They are away "fighting evil" around the world, though they can communicate to their children via Oswidge's crystal ball, which seems to operate like a phone. Occasionally are called while in a villain's dungeon or similar.
Princess Candy's best friends, who are sometimes unsupportive - and wisely so - towards her actions. They are as obsessive about fashion, clothes, and social lives as is Candy.
A shopkeeper who loves money and loves to rip off her customers. She can be cowed by Fang and other aggressive people but takes advantage of meek people like Dave. She sells evil weasels, mystical swords, and other plot-related paraphernalia. Catchphrase: "Looking for something, sweetie? We got that."
A cute little magic pony who has an overly depressed and psychotic mind. This is because he gets left in the stable all the time. He may just pop up in the middle of a story and start talking about his dreams, which are very disturbing (maggots of death, doing obscene things to penguins with a mallet, and so forth). A parody of Christopher Walken. Is capable of flight, though he has no wings.
A evil pig with a high-collared cape (and equally high voice) bent on ruling Udrogoth. Chuckles lives in a castle on the outskirts of the kingdom. He possesses the Mystic Amulet of Hogswineboar (named so because hogs, swine, and boars are all synonyms for the word 'pig'). This grants him amazing mystical powers such as telekinesis, blasting magic to rival Lula's, and conjuration. He is also a whiz with technology, as evidenced by the Mecha-Dave. His schemes usually rely on a particular gimmick (like giant clams, giant ducks, evil pastries, or evil furniture). Catchphrase: (whenever he gets hurt) "Ooh, my little piggy [insert body part]". It was also revealed in one episode that he has a nephew named Knuckles the Silly Piggy, who wanted to be the Harvest Hog instead of a dark lord of evil. Chuckles is voiced by Paul Rugg, who also voices Carl the Cockroach on Yin-Yang-Yo!
The evil sorceress princess of Hyrogoth that is trying to destroy Dave (or more likely she just wants to make Dave's life miserable). Her mother Zonthara is the ruler of Hyrogoth, and keeps on trying to teach Irmaplotz to be more evil. Her father is good, making her half-evil. Earlier in the show, Dave and Irmaplotz fell in love, but Dave decided that they were too different, and ended up dumping her, where she now seeking revenge. She still may have feelings for him though; she once got the chance to destroy Dave, but she chose not to do so. She is similar to Dave in that they both have the same odd hobbies and interests (she and Dave both love "bad Poetry" for example). She also has the same allergies as Dave. She is very beautiful and an intellectual; she would be a great match for Dave, only if she weren't an evil princess. She occasionally wear glasses (she has stated that she doesn't like to wear them as she feels they make her look bookish, even though she can't see things from far away without them), due to her being nearsighted. Irmaplotz is voiced by Melissa Rivers, while Melissa's mother, Joan Rivers, provides the voice of her mother the evil Zonthara.
An evil sorcerer and Oswidge's rival. He has an obsession with taking over the world and getting a lot of money. He was revealed to be a member of the Evil Socerer's union. He also runs a shop that cures hiccats (magical hiccups that produce cats from one's mouth). Unlike Oswidge, he actually went to wizard's school. He is voiced by Rob Paulsen.
The god of freshly laundered trousers, overused punctuation and possibly other random and ridiculous things. He has mommy issues and carries a security blanket known as his "ni-ni lankie". He often experiences short-term memory loss and attention deficit disorder. He is a green skinned naga-like giant with the lower half of a snake instead of legs; he is always wearing a blue cape and a combover. He has a severe inferiority complex that is only exacerbated in the presence of his mother. He has immense magical powers including flight, super-speed, and flaming loogies.
A nerd who works at a pants factory in the year 1994. He gains a radioactive zipper which he uses to travel back into time to attempt conquering the world by using the advanced technology of the future, such as the Game Guy(a parody of a Game Boy), and an old fashioned joke book, both plans of which were thwarted by Dave and his family. Ned is voiced by Richard Steven Horvitz.
A nephew of Chuckles the Silly Piggy, Knuckles wants to be the Harvest Hog instead of a Dark lord, even through his parents forbid him to be good. Chuckles keeps trying to give up his dream and become a dark lord, but with no avail. Candy was able to save the day by prompting Knuckles to give Fang Chuckles' Mystic Amulet of Hogswineboar so they can get out of the Dark Lord's trap. Knuckles is now traveling around the world, distributing presents to all the good little children to fulfill his dream to become the Harvest Hogg.
One of Dark Lord Chuckles the Silly Piggy's inventions in order to frame Dave the Barbarian, but it backfired on him.
Not much is known about her, it's even not known whether or not she's one of the good guys, the bad guys, or neutral. But fans assume that since she was once willing to team with the Dark Lord Chuckles the Silly Piggy as well as boil the Royal Family alive in a huge pot that she is a villain.
