* BrilliantButLazy: His biggest flaw is the fact that he certainly has the potential to be a great wizard, but he's unfocused and doesn't really want to invest time into becoming a sorcerer, since he's busying his mind with wanting new friends and seeking opportunities to have fun. It's when he manages to find a perfect balance between being himself and caring about his family that he becomes the perfect {{Foil}} for Losângela.



* BewareTheSillyOnes: Zequinha may be young and impulsive, but he's easily the smartest of the trio when he wants to be. He single-handedly managed to trick both his friends and Dr. Abobrinha at the same time during one of the villain's schemes by disguising himself as a "Pierrot" assistant to his TV show host front, playing the fool up until Nino was given the contract to sign, which is when he outs Abobrinha to them and gets him kicked out again.



* TheHero: Pedro loves to play this role whenever possible. Anytime the kids have to play dress-up (like a made-up theater play or a movie scene), expect him to be this role.

[[folder:João, Cacau & Ronaldo]]
!!!Played by: Leandro Léo, Mayara Constantino & Oscar Neto

Three human children who live in São Paulo. Nino befriends them after returning their missing kite, which fell into the castle's courtyard one night. The three become vital in helping Nino save his home.
----

* AgentMulder: Ronaldo, who believes wholeheartedly that the castle's owners are wizards and refuses to go near it because of this.
* AgentScully: Cacau doesn't believe Nino is a sorcerer when he first introduces himself to the three, and even when he comes to them for help, she dismisses his story as him having had a spat with his great-aunt that went too far, even though she still volunteers to help him take back the castle. She finally becomes a believer when she sees Victor and Morgana as puppets.
* BalefulPolymorph: João and Ronaldo get turned into mice by Losângela for attempting to interfere with her ritual. Like with Nino's family, they're brought to normal when she's defeated.
* ChekhovsGun: João's wind-up mouse toy "[[ICallItVera Emanuel]]", which he takes with him to the castle as a GoodLuckCharm. He later uses it to distract Losângela so Nino and Cacau can make their move. [[RealityEnsues Then she realizes it's a toy and the distraction goes off the window.]]
* ChekhovsSkill: Cacau's handwriting, which is both good and convincing enough for her to write the counter-spell of the Black Stone on Morgana's book so Losângela can read it.
* TheChick: Cacau, being the sole girl in the group.
* CowardlyLion: Ronaldo is deathly afraid of the castle's residents, but when Nino asks the trio's help to deal with his aunt, he takes only two seconds to agree. Not only that, he deliberately throws himself in harm's way to distract Losângela so Nino and Cacau can get to Morgana's book, getting turned into a mouse for his trouble and possibly knowing something like this would happen, but still choosing to follow Nino's plan and [[TakingTheBullet take a magic spell head-on]] simply to help a new friend. He's the FIRST to take action, in fact.
* MuggleBestFriend: They're quick to warm-up to Nino when they meet him, and instead of being scared of him for being a sorcerer, they welcome him with open arms.
* PowerTrio:
** Superego: Cacau, the logical and level-headed member of the group who tries to see things reasonably and doesn't believe in things like magic until it's right in front of her;
** Ego: João, who is calm and even-tempered despite being the youngest, and was willing to give Nino's story more credence even on the first time they met;
** Id: Ronaldo, a superstitious boy who doesn't like to get in trouble but instinctively steps up to take action when the need arises.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To the original human trio who befriended Nino in the TV show. Justified, since the actors who played them were already too grown-up to reprise their roles.
* TrueCompanions: They offer to help a kid who comes to them saying he's a sorcerer from some long-living family just because of a good afternoon they spent together, then put themselves in harm's way for said kid when they see he was telling the truth and needs a distraction. Naturally, once everything is settled, they're cordially invited to the Planetary Alignment Ball among the other sorcerers for their courage and kindness to Nino.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Losângela Stradivarius]]
!!!Played by: Marieta Severo

A former member of the Stradivarius clan and Morgana's cousin. She was exiled from the family by the Universal Council of Wizards for her lack of ethics in spell-casting and her tendency to steal other wizards' magic instead of perfecting her own. Living in São Paulo as a fortune-teller, she ropes Dr. Abobrinha into helping her take over the castle by using Morgana's spell book to give herself power, hoping to use it to make her the most powerful sorceress of all during the Planetary Alignment Ritual.
----

* AnimeHair: When empowered, she sports a bright-purple towering hairdo with a single lock drooping in front of her face.
* BalefulPolymorph: Turns people into these, which comes with the territory of playing the WickedWitch role. She transforms Victor and Morgana into marionettes, two of Nino's friends into mice, and two of the castle's non-human residents into carpets.
* BigBad: Of the movie, seeking to become the most powerful sorceress on Earth.
* TheDreaded: Even saying her name causes things to randomly fall over and animals in the vicinity to become agitated. Even Morgana, who doesn't treat her with any respect whatsoever, certainly dreads her return.
* EmbarrassingNickname: "Lolô", which was her nickname when she was a member of the clan. [[DoNotCallMePaul Naturally, this is a very sore spot for her.]]
* EvilCounterpart: To Morgana, who devoted her life to the study of magic and its teaching, and is also a caring motherly figure to Nino who is only stern when she needs to be. Losângela, meanwhile, is an inept, malicious witch that steals magic and makes it her own while acting full of herself.
* FailedASpotCheck: ''Three times, in succession'', which is what ultimately defeats her. Because she never learned of the Black Stone that is used to revert spells, she tosses the thing aside even though Nino left it by the book podium she was using for her ritual. Nino's false signal that the Planetary Alignment is starting could easily be disproved by just looking at the planetary "clock" right there on the main hall, but she's too preoccupied with gaining power to check again. Finally, the cherry on the cake, she can't even tell her own cousin's handwriting apart from some random stranger having written the counter-spell on the page she was reading, so she just reads the counter-spell out loud without realizing, making her entire plan ''literally'' go up in smoke.
* FatalFlaw: [[LazyBum Sloth]] and {{Pride}}. Losângela feels the Stradivarius clan owes her for being a witch with great potential for power that was stripped from her "unjustly", but she herself never put in the work to actually ''earn'' said power, instead preferring to leech off her family's work and use their spells while claiming ownership of them. This lack of effort on her part made her blind to her family's other teachings, so she ended up only knowing magic at a superficial level and can't even tell her cousin's own handwriting apart from a stranger's, which is what ultimately does her in.
* NoOntologicalInertia: Invoked; the purpose of the Black Stone is to undo the spells done by the caster in recent periods of time. Losângela reading it undoes her appropriation of Morgana and Victor's magic, therefore erasing all of the spells she used with her cousin's book, including Abobrinha's position as mayor and her own power.
* PowerParasite: She never bothered to develop her own magical powers, instead preferring to leech off her family's and claim it as hers. Through Morgana's book, Losângela takes away her and Victor's magic as well as the one that makes the castle itself thrive.
* RightHandAttackDog: Two tiny chihuahuas that she transforms into aggressive dobermans to guard the castle's front gate. When she's defeated, they revert to tiny, harmless puppies.
* ShadowArchetype: She's essentially everything Nino could have been had he not learned from his mistakes and refused to accept his wrongdoings. Furthermore, Nino might have argued with his uncle and great-aunt about wanting a normal life, but he'd never do anything to hurt them intentionally and truly loves and cares for his guardians. Losângela ''hates'' being "normal" and desires power above all else, gleefully turning on her family if it means she can be more powerful than them.
* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: Slips on a big oil puddle placed by Nino while chasing him through the castle.
* TarotMotifs: Presents herself as the Death Arcana in her personalized deck:
** While the card in the upright position ''can'' symbolize impending doom, it also represents change and new beginnings. Sure, she is TheDreaded for her old clan and her arrival does bring doom to the castle, but it's temporary and she is quickly defeated, said defeat also symbolizing the apex of Nino's CharacterDevelopment through the movie, a change for the better for both himself and his family, who come to be much closer and understanding with each other;
** Reversed, the card symbolizes resistance to change and stagnation, which is what Losângela truly represents. Rather than choosing to learn from her mistakes and move on, she let her hatred simmer under the skin for a thousand years, unable to accept her exile from the clan and plotting against them at every turn. Because she's unable to take a hint and truly learn a new lesson, she essentially ends up defeating herself in the end.
* TheUnfettered: Part of the reason why she was exiled, as she had no concerns about ethics in spell-casting and only ever cared about the power magic gives her.
* WickedWitch: As opposed to her cousin and the rest of her family, who are all well-intentioned and use magic for good deeds.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Rato]]
!!!Played by: Matheus Nachtergaele

Abobrinha's dim-witted henchman.
----

* AnimalMotifs: It's in the name.
* AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: He's named after a rat, and is a wormy, buck-toothed coward that follows Abobrinha around.
* BumblingSidekick: To Dr. Abobrinha.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[{{Pun}} Heh]]. He becomes Abobrinha's advisor thanks to Losângela's magic, but nothing comes of it and he disappears from the plot after Nino runs away from home.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Mau, Sujo & Feio]]
!!!Voiced by: Luiz Carlos de Moraes, João Batista & Álvaro Petersen Jr.

Three strange creatures that live in the castle's sewers and pipes. They're Nino's only friends in the castle.
----

* CartoonCreature: A slimy purple monster, a trash creature and some kind of armless being with huge eyes and strands of black hair.
* DecompositeCharacter: Mau and Sujo are basically two versions of the original Mau.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: Their names are literally "bad", "dirty" and "ugly", which they are respectively.
* SpannerInTheWorks: Feio, who helps Nino trick Losângela into thinking the Planetary Alignment Ritual is starting.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Feio is this to Godofredo, except nowhere near a doormat like he was. Sujo and Mau are also this to the original Mau.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Doormen]]
!!!Played by: Fernando Vianna & Reginaldo Faidi

Two sphinx statues stationed at the castle's front door past the garden. As the name states, they're charged with watching over the door to make sure no unwanted person passes.
----

* DecompositeCharacter: They both take the role of the original Doorman robot from the TV show.
* MakingASplash: They're shown expelling Abobrinha and Rato from the premises (a repeated occurrence) by triggering the garden's sprinklers to douse the two and scare them off.
* TakenForGranite: They're already immobile statues save for their faces, but Losângela's influence freezes the two solid so they can't prevent her or her entourage from coming and going as they please. When she's kicked out, the two return to normal.

* AgentScully: Until they actually entered the castle, neither of them thought magic was real. It took being turned into flower pots by a magic mishap from Nino and reverted to normal by Morgana for them to accept that it was very much real. The telekinetic ear pinches probably helped too.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Zigzagged. He's still the exact same hammy villain in the movie (in terms of acting), but he's at least smart enough to use a better disguise with Nino (helped by the fact that Nino has never met him directly in this continuity) and follow Losângela's instructions closely so their deal can work out. That being said, [[spoiler:Losângela turning Victor and Morgana into puppets and later ''setting them on fire'' gets no reaction from him.

* ConMan: It's one thing for a real estate worker to be insistent on acquiring territory to build a new lot in, but the lengths Abobrinha will go to, not to mention his repeated attempts to ''trick'' Nino into signing the contract through disguises and BlatantLies, implies he's not exactly working within lawful conduct when it comes to his job and might actually be a con-man trying to earn a big score with the building he wants to build.

Bar Etevaldo and the Caipora ([[FridgeBrilliance likely because he wouldn't be able to imitate their teleportation]]), he's tried to look like anyone who enters the castle on a regular basis, or even its inhabitants, but always gets himself caught because of always failing to account for the details:
** Besides not counting on Bongô showing up at the castle for a casual visit, the kids make the two have a dance-off, which of course Bongô wins since it's one of his favorite things to do;
** His disguise as Penelope actually has some forward planning to it (he hired a cameraman and the lease contract is disguised as a studio permission slip for image and audio use, which is standard procedure), but he failed to account for the airing time of the newscast Penelope works for, which of course is aired live, being right around the moment he's attempting his plan;
** He crashes Morgana's birthday party in a Dr. Victor suit and, barring the fact Nino's uncle is suddenly a lot slimmer, he refers to Morgana as Nino's "grandmother" when she's actually his great-aunt, a mistake the ''real'' Victor would never make;
** His disguise as one of the scientist twins is foiled when he's unable to express himself "scientifically" like the two, unable to pick up on the brothers' tight conversational flow and CatchPhrase, and when he didn't bother to check that the twins have an IdenticalTwinIDTag that could reveal him as an impostor (the first letter of their first names tattooed on their ankles).

That being said, Losângela turning Victor and Morgana into puppets and later ''setting them on fire'' gets no reaction from him. If anything, he's ''applauding'' before the witch has to command him to restrain Nino.
* DemotedToDragon: When Losângela regains her powers, Abobrinha is delegated to being her lackey in her takeover of the castle. After all, he might be mayor now, but she has powerful magic at her disposal and could easily burn him on the fireplace with Victor and Morgana should she feel like it.
* MayorPain: [[spoiler:Losângela makes him the mayor of São Paulo so he'll have immediate control and authority over the terrain of the castle. The promotion only lasts for as long as the witch still holds her power, so when she's defeated and her powers removed, he's back to being a slimy con-man with no authority.]]
* TarotMotifs: The King of Wands in Losângela's deck, one of the Minor Arcana cards. She plays the card upright, meaning honor, a natural-born leader and someone with vision, but Abobrinha represents the card reversed, ie high expectations, haste and ruthlessness. He banks everything on Losângela's plan working to his advantage, especially when she makes him mayor for an easy access to the castle's land ownership, but the truth is that his haste to trust her results in his power meaning squat when she regains her magic, and eventually it only leads to his high expectations being met with Losângela's plan failing and both of them being shown the door.



* RealMenWearPink: Sure, he's a loud, screeching creature that lives in the pipes, but apparently he has no problem putting on bunny ears for the Easter egg hunt.

[[folder:Adelaide]]
!!!Voiced by: Luciano Ottani

Morgana's best friend, a talking magpie that lives with her in her room atop the castle's tower.
----

* BerserkButton: Don't even imply you're calling her a chicken.
* CrossdressingVoices: Like Celeste, she's a female character voiced by a man.
* DeadpanSnarker: Often when Morgana is telling her stories.
* {{Familiar}}: All but stated to be this to Morgana, and she does like to meddle with magic herself once in a while. Much like when Nino tries to do it, it doesn't go too well for her unless Morgana is around.
* FriendlyTickleTorture: Often the target of these from Morgana. She'll dart all around the room to try and escape it.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: Morgana and her are inseparable, and tend to go on all sorts of crazy outings together. That being said, the two will also bicker and snark at each other, so they share a very sister-like dynamic with each other.
* NoIndoorVoice: Magpies are already known for being loud birds, but Adelaide can really scream if she gets excited.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Fura-Bolos]]
!!!Voiced by: Fernando Gomes

A talking finger puppet from "Dedolândia" (Fingerland). Often introduces a sketch where other citizens from his hometown sing about math, and another for washing your hands before meals.
----

* AnimateInanimateObject: A finger puppet that moves around and talks.
* BathsAreFun: Or rather, "washing your hands is fun", as he's often the one who cues in the show's famous song about washing your hands before eating.
* GoodWithNumbers: His sketches are all about singers from Dedolândia, other finger puppets, teaching kids about basic math operations in song form.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A stuffy horn song every time he pops up.
* MeaningfulName: "Fura-bolos" is an old colloquial Portuguese term [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin for the index finger]].
* TeleportSpam: The only real way to explain how he moves inside the castle, since he's an arm rising from behind the set.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Ratinho]]
!!!Voiced by: Marcos Magalhães

A Claymation-style mouse who pilots a rat-mobile through the castle floor, living in a mouse hole at the music room. Has three songs about cleanliness that he performs whenever the show cuts to the rat-mobile speeding through the castle.
----

* ArtShift: While the Ratmobile is an actual remote-controlled prop, the mouse's sketches are done in stop-motion animation, using both 3-D clay models and 2-D drawings.
* BathsAreFun: His most famous song is about how baths are important for cleanliness, but all of his songs involve cleaning and personal hygiene in some way.
* ADogNamedDog: His name is literally just "little mouse" in Portuguese.
* {{Leitmotif}}: His Ratmobile is introduced with a fast-paced traditional jazz jingle up until the moment he enters his mouse hole.
* GreenAesop: Two of his songs are about environmental concerns, namely throwing garbage where it belongs and recycling.
* MouseHole: At the music room. It doubles as the garage for his Ratmobile, complete with a sliding garage door.
* TotallyRadical: His "Recycling Rock" is a rap song meant to invoke this trope for the children.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Lana & Lara]]
!!!Played by: Fabiana Prado & Theresa Athayde

A pair of tiny fairies that live inside the chandelier at the castle's entrance hall. They're part of a regular sketch where the two ask the audience for help with math and general knowledge.
----

* AmbiguouslyRelated: WordOfGod says that the fairies live in the chandelier because they're Nino's cousins, therefore part of his extended family, although which part of this extended family they come from is never stated.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: Lana wears white and Lara wears bright-yellow.
* FairyCompanion: They play the trope straight by being helpful and kind to people in the castle, following the usual pop-culture depiction of fairies.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A cutesy flute song.
* {{Lilliputians}}: They're about the height of Zeca's head, and can use their magic to get even smaller. They do live in a chandelier, after all.
* ShelteredAristocrat: They're part of Nino's family, and much like Morgana, the two rarely, if ever, leave their home in the chandelier. Even outdoor activities are often just imitated by the two with their magic and some props.
* OncePerEpisode: Their sketch, introduced with a cut and camera pan to the chandelier, about the two taking part in various activities until they need to ask for help [[AudienceParticipation from the child audience at home]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:João-de-Barro & the Patativas]]
!!!Played by: Various (João-de-Barro), Dilmah Souza & Ciça Meirelles (Patativas)

A trio of birds that live in the ovenbird's nest atop Celeste's tree. They play and sing about different instruments each time.
----

* OncePerEpisode: A character hears an instrument being played and calls attention to it, until it's revealed that it's the birds playing again, so the kid viewers can learn about musical instruments.
[[/folder]]


!Sketch Characters
[[folder:Tíbio & Perônio]]
!!!Played by: Flávio de Souza & Henrique Stroeter

Identical twin brothers and scientists of supposed high renown. Their sketch is about scientific facts and experiments, mostly biology or physics-related, that they teach the audience about. They're also recurring characters in the show, serving as Dr. Victor's contacts in the scientific community.
----

* AbsentMindedProfessor: Times two. They'll go off on long tangents about science facts and things happening around them, repeat what the other just said and are basically two excitable man-children that love to experiment. Case in point, they'll often forget who the other is due to being so identical. Also, their birthday gift for Morgana was a collection of test tubes and formulas that they put together... while also having no idea what it was all meant to do in the first place.
* AgentScully: Until they actually entered the castle, neither of them thought magic was real. It took being turned into flower pots by a magic mishap from Nino and reverted to normal by Morgana for them to accept that it was very much real. The telekinetic ear pinches probably helped too.
* CatchPhrase:
** "''Hello, hello!''", done in unison and with timing between each hello, complimented with a stiff wave from the same hand each.
** "''I'd say more...''", quipped by either of them to reinforce the other's previous statement, often just repeating what was already said.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Their entire segment is done while addressing the audience directly so they can teach kids about science.
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: They'll slip into this often due to their bumbling nature, often trying to help the other's argument only to end up repeating the same thing.
* ForScience: A far more ethical version of this trope. The two are scientists in generalized fields and have a passion for experimenting, but only if it's something people can learn from and is beneficial.
* IdenticalTwinIDTag: Tíbio has a deeper voice and has a wider build, while Perônio is slimmer and has a higher voice. The two also have their initials tattooed on their ankles, a request from their parents since they were impossible to tell apart as babies.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A dorky synthesizer and oboe song that is also used for the jingle that introduces their sketch.
* RedOniBlueoni: Tíbio is the more mild-mannered of the two and will often be the one who needs to bring his brother back to Earth, while Perônio is excitable and tends to be more childish and energetic.
* RunningGag: Perônio really wants to conduct a study on the flight of the butterflies, but never gets around to do it since the sketch demands they talk about something else.
* ThemeTwinNaming: Both are named after the two bones in the human shin (although "Tíbio" is a made-up, male-gendered version of the real name, "tíbia"). Their family also seems to be named after bones in the human skeleton, since they have a female relative called Clavicle.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Telekid]]
!!!Played by: Marcelo Tas

A young man in colorful clothes who resides in some kind of cyberspace environment. He appears in a sketch that follows after one of Zeca's questions is dismissed with "just because!", where he actually solves the question asked.
----

* ActorAllusion: To ''Rá-Tim-Bum'', Cao Hamburger's previous edutainment show, where Marcelo Tas played another character meant to educate children while addressing them directly.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Like Tíbio and Perônio, his sketches are always done addressing the audience directly.
** During a question about television and how image transmission works, he actually breaks character for a few seconds to show, from a different camera angle, the studio he's recording the segment in, as well as the green-screen used to do his colorful background.
* {{Catchphrase}}:
** "''"Porque sim não é a resposta!"''" (""Just because" is not an answer!"), used as his introduction;
** "''Entenderam o porquê?''" ("Do you get why, now?") before he finishes his segment.

* TarotMotifs: Nino's image is used on Losângela's tarot deck as the Hanged Man, the arcana representing self-sacrifice for the sake of enlightenment and overcoming of one's bindings. Nino is forced into a dangerous situation by his aunt's takeover of the castle and is forced to put his life on the line to save his family and friends from her, which is also how he finally achieves magical prowess, by relying on his new friends and his own smarts to overpower Losângela. Doing so also proves him to be capable as a sorcerer and frees him of the fears holding him back, allowing him to be himself, a Stradivarius, while also being friends with normal humans who truly cherish his company. Upright, the card also signals that the person might need some time to think things through, and after escaping from the castle, he uses his time away to organize his counterattack against his aunt.

!!Movie tropes
* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: The movie's version of Morgana is far more serious and strict than the TV show, and she loses most of her child-like energy and humor in exchange for a more posh and somber approach, to better help with the conflict involving her cousin. For instance, she treats the Dance of the Planets with joyful fervor when she teaches it to Nino, gets very happy when she sees he has the rhythm going, then ''immediately'' shifts gears into a chiding motherly figure when Nino reveals he hasn't written much in his book yet, just like how Victor scolded him minutes before.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: To her cousin Losângela. Morgana's power as a witch was honed through millennia of training, which was helped by her natural talent for magic, something her cousin lacked and envied her for. This is the primary reason why Losângela orchestrates a plan to steal Morgana's book and magic for herself.
* BalefulPolymorph: Losângela turns her and Victor into puppets and traps them in the castle's fireplace, threatening to set them ablaze if they cross her one more time.
* ChekhovsGun: The Black Stone hidden inside her bedroom mirror, which has an engraving for a counter-spell to undo enchantment mishaps should the need arise. Nino and Cacau use it later to undo Losângela's theft of Morgana's magic by transcribing the counter-spell onto Morgana's spell book.

* ExtremeDoormat: To Mau, but sometimes he can be a DeadpanSnarker instead.

!Main Characters
[[folder:Nino]]
!!!Played by: Cássio Scapin (TV show), Diegho Kozievitch (movie)

Antonino Stradivarius Victorius II, or just "Nino" for short, is the main character of the show. A lonely 300-year-old wizard boy living with his uncle and great-aunt, he uses his knowledge of magic to trick three other kids into going to his home, the large castle in the middle of town.

The movie's version of Nino is a frustrated ChildMage-in-training who wants to be respected by his great-aunt and uncle as an equal to their maturity, as well as a desire to fit in with other normal children, but is constantly sheltered and lectured by them.
----

* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: In the movie, where he's constantly desiring to be normal so he can play with other kids outside of the castle, but is unable to because of his family traditions.
* ChildMage: Training to become a wizard like the rest of his family, but his magical skills are still amateurish and prone to backfiring or missing.
* ChildProdigy: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] since he's still prone to making mistakes and [[ItsBeenDone inventing things that were already done]], but he still shows a lot of potential in both scientific and magical fields, sometimes managing to create something that is truly impressive.
* DawsonCasting: Played by an adult actor in the TV show, in comparison to the three other child leads, but his energy and enthusiasm in his delivery helps to give him a more childish vibe.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: His main desire in the movie.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: His main desire in general. It's what leads him to use magic to lead the main trio into the castle to begin with.
* ImageSong: ''Zeca, Nino, Pedro, Biba"'', an upbeat, jazzy song shared with the three other kids.
* IdiotHair: A black bowlcut with a strand rising from the middle.
* {{Keet}}: He's energetic and enthusiastic in the show to the point of it being contagious.
* {{Leitmotif}}: An instrumental version of his theme song, also shared with his three friends.
* Really700YearsOld: A 300-year-old wizard boy.
* SpoiledSweet: He has his moments of childishness and petty outbursts, but he's ultimately a nice guy who likes to have fun with his friends anytime he can.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Pedro, Biba & Zequinha]]
!!!Played by: Luciano Amaral, Cinthya Raquel & Freddy Allan

Three kids who were lured towards the castle by Nino using a spell on Zequinha's ball. The four have become inseparable since then, with the trio visiting the castle each day to play with their new friend.
----

* AdaptedOut: All three are absent from the movie, [[RealLifeWritesThePlot due to the actors having grown up by that point]].
* AdorablyPrecociousChild: Zeca, who constantly asks questions and tries to learn more about things around him.
* TheBigGuy: Pedro is the tallest of the three and is usually capable of doing things that require more strength.
* {{Catchphrase}}: Zeca's constant asking of "why?", [[PhraseCatcher followed by other characters answering]] "just because, Zequinha!" in an annoyed tone. [[OnceAnEpisode Cue Telekid]].
* TheChick: Biba, as the only girl in the main group.
* ImageSong / {{Leitmotif}}: They share "''Zeca, Nino, Pedro, Biba''" and its instrumental version with Nino.
* MuggleBestFriend: All three towards Nino.
* OnceAnEpisode: Their entry into the castle by one of the Doorman's "passwords", or Zequinha asking "why" repeatedly until Telekid's sketch begins to answer his main question.
* PowerTrio:
** Superego: Pedro, as the most logical of the trio and the one usually proposing the sensible approach to events around him.
** Ego: Biba, the mediator of the group who is capable of being more loose than Pedro, but still more grounded than Zeca.
** Id: Zequinha, the youngest and most impulsive of the three who likes to eat, run around and ask things constantly.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Dr. Victor]]
!!!Played by: Sérgio Mamberti

Victor Astrobaldo Stradivarius Victorius I, or simply "Dr. Victor", is Nino's uncle and a great inventor, on top of being a skilled and powerful wizard himself. Often has to put up with his nephew's antics, and is usually seen leaving to and returning from his day job.

The movie's version of Dr. Victor is a stricter sage, focused entirely on Nino's education as an inventor and wizard, without paying attention to his desires for normalcy.
----

* AbsentMindedProfessor: Has his moments. His inventions are usually successful, but occasionally he comes across a fluke, and sometimes he can digress during a story. His recounting of their encounter with Da Vinci has him break into fluent Italian when the artist comes in, which the kids have to point out to him so he can translate it.
* BeenThereShapedHistory: He was right there with several of history's greatest inventors and artists, learning and teaching with each of them. One episode even focuses on the time he and Morgana had ''Creator/LeonardoDaVinci himself'' visit the castle when it was positioned in Italy during the Renaissance.
* {{Catchphrase}}: "''Raios e trovões!''" (lightning and thunder), said when he's particularly upset with Nino.
* FriendToAllLivingThings / FriendToAllChildren: Described as a lover of all animals, living creatures and children, and his inventions are usually made with some benevolent idea in mind. Victor himself also has some child-like wonder to him, sometimes joining in the fun with the kids when possible.
* GadgeteerGenius: A prolific inventor. He even has his own room in the castle for projects and inventions, which Nino also likes to use for the same purpose.
* {{Leitmotif}}: A classy, upbeat piano song.
* MeaningfulName: "Victor" comes from [[Literature/Frankenstein Victor Frankenstein]], the scientist behind the infamous monster, while "Astrobaldo" is derived from the "astro" radical of the word, tying to Victor's love of space travel and observation.
* Really700YearsOld: He's 3000 years old.
* ShockAndAwe: His magic seems to be centered around electricity and lightning. His catchphrase shown above causes ''actual'' thunder and lightning to appear even in sunny days, and his spells usually have a lightning crack shape to them.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Aunt Morgana]]
!!!Played by: Rosi Campos

[[OverlyLongName Ana Morgana Maria Gioconda Teresa Cecília Luísa Astrobaldo Demétrio Fonseca Stradivarius Victorius]], a powerful, 6000-year-old sorceress and Nino's great-aunt. While sociable and friendly, she spends most of her time in her bedroom inside the castle's single tower, with her magpie friend Adelaide, with a sketch in the show dedicated to her stories about great people and events in history.

The movie has Morgana be a more serious mentor to Nino, in contrast to her more lighthearted approach in the show. The plot's main conflict also stems from someone on her side of the family returning with desires of vengeance and power.
----

* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: The movie's version of Morgana is far more serious and strict than the TV show, and she loses most of her child-like energy and humor in exchange for a more somber approach, to better help with the conflict involving her cousin.
* BeenThereShapedHistory: It's easier to count the number of times Morgana ''didn't'' somehow participate in a big historical event. Her stories include meeting and helping Leonardo Da Vinci with the Mona Lisa, participating in the first excursion to the Arctic, meeting several Greek philosophers and she's somehow acquainted with witches from ''fairy tales''. AND their writers. And this is merely scratching the surface of what she's done.
* CoolOldLady: A quirky, friendly witch with immense magical prowess that loves children, animals and nature.
* FriendToAllChildren: Like Victor, she loves kids and has her own child-like enthusiasm.
* ImageSong / {{Leitmotif}}: "''Morgana''", an upbeat song with a catchy beat and some exotic instrumentation in the mix, playing almost like a tango song at points. The show uses a slower, classier version as her leitmotif.
* MeaningfulName: "Morgana" is an alternate version of "Morgan", referring to the "Morgan le Fay" of Arthurian myth.
* OnceAnEpisode: Has a "Witchcraft" sketch dedicated to her stories about meeting historical figures, and lessons about health, nature and general knowledge.
* Really700YearsOld: ''6000 years old'' by the time of her BirthdayEpisode.
* ShelteredAristocrat: She's not opposed to socializing and is very conversational, but most of her time is nonetheless spent in her bedroom at the castle's tower, to the point it's somewhat rare to see her come downstairs to the main hall.

!Visitors
[[folder:Etevaldo]]
!!!Played by: Wagner Bello

An alien from a distant planet that lands in the main hall of the castle one day. Through a basic, fast dictionary reading, he learns to speak Portuguese and occasionally returns to the castle to learn more about human activities with his new friends.
----

* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: His skin is purple and yellow, and his "outfit" is comprised of rings and shoulder pads of the same color.
* AmusingAlien: A friendly alien visitor with boundless curiosity and quirky customs.
* BizarreAlienBiology: One of his machines shows that his insides are bio-mechanical, and he openly mentions that some parts can be bought in stores in his home planet. This without mentioning his head and arm protuberances and the rings around his abdomen.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Teleporting into the castle's main hall in an ominous display of flickering lights and gusts of wind, only to immediately scream in terror at the leads and hide behind Celeste's tree.
* ImageSong / {{Leitmotif}}: ''"Etevaldo"'', a song with reversing effects, synthesizer riffs and reverb notes, meant to sound otherworldy and have a sci-fi feel to it.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Caipora]]
!!!Played by: Patrícia Gasppar

A creature of Brazilian folklore, the Caipora (Caipora Régia, or "Rê" for short) is a defender of nature and friend of the native civilizations of Brazil. Appears whenever she hears whistling, and usually leaves if someone correctly answers her riddles.
----

* AmbiguouslyHuman: She's human-like, but outright states she's not human herself in her introduction. As she puts it, "Caipora just is, there ''is'' no other".
* BerserkButton: Pollution and deforestation make her hiss loudly at the mere mention of the words. To say nothing of uncontrolled hunting and hurting animals.
* {{Bowdlerise}}: The original Caipora myths depict it assaulting hunters in the Amazon who don't agree to its terms and limitations, and being warded off with tobacco ropes. Needless to say, since this is an edutainment show, these parts are omitted.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Appearing in the castle while everyone is asleep and whistling while they're snoring, causing a major ruckus due to her hyperactive personality.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: As a protector of nature, this is a given, although unlike usual natural defenders, she's also not opposed to humans outside of her allied tribes and can be quite friendly to those who don't pollute.
* GenderFlip: Usual folklore renditions of the Caipora have it be a male human-like creature, while the Castelo Rá-Tim-Bum version is female.
* GenkiGirl: She's energetic and likes to move around constantly, to say nothing of the constant teleporting, and usually speaks loudly. She does have a few quiet moments, however.
* GreenThumb: Her magic is attuned to nature, which includes the growth and development of plant life, as demonstrated when she helps Zequinha's bean sprout grow so big ''it grows around the entire castle''.
* ImageSong / {{Leitmotif}}: "''Caipora''", a sertanejo (Brazilian country music) song. The show's instrumental version also tends to use Tupi-Guarani drum beats.
* MagicalNativeAmerican: Native ''Brazilian'', but same principle.
* TheStoryteller: Likes to tell stories about two Tupi-Guarani boys who live in the Amazon.
* TeleportSpam: Her preferred method of transportation.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Penélope]]
!!!Played by: Ângela Dip

A fashionable reporter and presenter of the local news show. She visits the castle one day to interview Dr. Victor and instead ends up in Nino's convoluted lie that he's his own uncle. From that point on, she becomes a regular visitor to play with the children and go after a new scoop.
----

* BunnyEarsLawyer: Penelope is girly, fancy and fashionable, has an adoration for pink and greatly loves cute things, but she's still a professional reporter and helpfully informs the main quartet at one point that her newscast job is just that: a job, like any other.
* ImageSong / {{Leitmotif}}: "''Penelope''", a surfer-rock song. The show remixes it into a "news show" style, having it double as her program's introductory jingle.
* IntrepidReporter: She's always looking for a new scoop for her show, and living in the same town as a big castle full of magical wonders often gives her the material she needs.
* PinkMeansFeminine: She's dressed head-to-toe in pink all the time, and even her news show has a pink bench and background. That being said, her husband Ulisses likes the color pink just as much, invoking the [[RealMenWearPink male variant of the trope]].
* WhatTheHellHero: She and Biba call out the boys on their treatment of Zula and she leaves the castle in disgust at their attitude. Once they learn their lesson, she returns and forgives them.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Bongô]]
!!!Played by: Eduardo Silva

A friend of Nino's who lives in the neighborhood, who just so happens to work at the local pizzeria as a deliveryman. Often comes in spinning through the front door with a pizza on each hand and several ideas for fun.
----

* FunPersonified: Never lets up on having fun with the others, and is usually the first to get on his feet to do something.
* ImageSong / {{Leitmotif}}: "''Bongô''", a happy and uplifting reggae song. An instrumental version serves as his leitmotif. Of course, it emphasizes bongos.
* {{Keet}}: Often lifts the mood the second he walks in through the front door, just because he's always with a smile on his face and full of energy to play around with the kids.
* ThePollyana: It's hard to see him depressed, since he's ever the optimist. He sometimes tells stories about how customers who got a pizza wrong just couldn't find it in themselves to get mad at it with him around.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: He DOES work in pizza delivery...
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: The ''one'' thing that makes him stop having fun and run off is Morgana. He does put away his fear, however, to celebrate Morgana's birthday with the others.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Dr. Abobrinha]]
!!!Played by: Pascoal da Conceição

The show's BigBad. Real name "[[AlliterativeName Pompeu Pompílio Pomposo]]", he's supposedly a real-estate agent, obsessed with buying the castle's terrain so he can bring it down and build a 100-story building and adjacent parking lot in its place. His schemes usually involve disguising himself to try and trick Nino into signing a contract that will pass the ownership of the castle onto him, but he never succeeds.

The movie gives him a bumbling henchman named Rato and has both constantly trying and failing to buy the lease on the castle, havin done so for quite some time. Hia frustration leads him to Losângela and he ends up cutting a deal with her, becoming HER henchman in the process.
----

* AdaptationalVillainy: Zigzagged. He's still the exact same hammy villain in the movie (in terms of acting), but he's at least smart enough to use a better disguise with Nino (helped by the fact that Nino has never met him directly in this continuity) and follow Losângela's instructions closely so their deal can work out. That being said, [[spoiler:Losângela turning Victor and Morgana into puppets and later ''setting them on fire'' gets no reaction from him. If anything, he's ''applauding'' it before the witch has to command him to restrain Nino.]]
* AlliterativeName: '''P'''om'''p'''eu '''P'''om'''p'''ílio '''P'''om'''p'''oso.
* BaldOfEvil: A dishonest con-man, and completely bereft of hair.
* ButtMonkey: He tries HARD to get Nino to sign the contract, but always ends up unmasked and humiliated. A preferred method of getting him to leave is through the castle's garbage chute.
* ImageSong / {{Leitmotif}}: "''Dr. Abobrinha''", a heavy, deep song with tubas sounding oppressive and slimy. An instrumental version serves as his leitmotif.
* MayorPain: [[spoiler:In the movie, where Losângela makes him the mayor of São Paulo so he'll have immediate control and authority over the terrain of the castle.]]
* MeaningfulName: "Abobrinha" is the Portuguese word for the squash/zucchini gourd, a joke at how his head, much like a squash, is a smooth surface. However, "abobrinha" is also a slang term which means "hogwash/nonsense", referring to how often he talks things that displease the cast. His real surname "pomposo" is a Portuguese word meaning "pompous", referring to his haughty attitude.
* PaperThinDisguise: His favorite strategy. Given this is a kids show, the kids fall for it up until the end of the episode, where something gives him away as an impostor.
