History Characters / TheChroniclesOfOz

* BalefulPolymorph: They were transformed into ornaments by the Nome King, and were kept that way until Ozma saves them. Thankfully it's ''not'' a case of AndIMustScream, since it's made quite clear that they weren't conscious during their time as ornaments and when they're freed they aren't even aware what's happened or how much time has passed.

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Especially in the first season when he still thinks he's brainless, but he retains a notable streak of it in later seasons as well. While he does fairly consistently take on the role of the SmartGuy, he's very unorthodox about it, he makes the strangest leaps of logic, will often go off on weird tangents for no reason, and overall comes across mostly like a DitzyGenius.
* DitzyGenius: He's a SmartGuy for sure, with more brainpower than pretty much any other character in the show... but he's rather short on common sense.

* TheVoiceless: Unlike his book counterpart, the Sawhorse doesn't speak here. Tip ponders about this, since he and Jack Pumphinhead were created by the same Poweder of Life, and Jack could talk perfectly well from the start. Mombi's explanation is simple: it's not ''just'' the powder of life, it's also who wields it. Jack was brought to life by a fully-trained witch, but the Sawhorse was brought to life by an inexperienced apprentice.

* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: When Ozma is the semi-last person to try the Gnome King's guessing game, she succumbs to her insecurities and gives up. Then Tip's voice appears and encourages her not to quit.

-->'''Tip''': Look, I'm not gonna waste time arguing with you, you're everyone's last hope and it's beneath you. Be a queen and find a queen.//
'''Ozma''': I'm not a queen. I'm just a princess.
'''Tip''': Only while you let yourself be one! The only one stopping you from being the queen your meant to be is you. Get up.

* ItsPronouncedTropay: Jellia is pronounced "jell-EYE-ah" here. Doesn't stop Scarecrow from pronouncing the name as "JELL-ee-ah", though.

* {{Catchphrase}}: Two of them: "I have an idea." when he comes up with a plan, and "Shut up." when the Tin Woodsman responds with ''his'' catchphrase.

* {{Catchphrase}}: "Uh oh.", used whenever the Scarecrow comes up with an idea.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Unlike his NiceGuy book counterpart, ''this'' Tin Woodman is introduced as an antisocial and cynical grouch who plays the "heartless" part a lot more convincingly. But when it cames down to it he's a lot kinder and more compassionate than anyone (including the Tin Woodman himself) would give him credit for.

* TheVoiceless: Unlike his book counterpart, the Sawhorse doesn't speak here.

* RobotBuddy: He's a robot, and a key ally in Ozma's quest.

* AdaptationalVillainy: While not a bad person, Nanda has more dubious motives in mind. She doesn't hesitate to try and rally Ev against her, and gives Ozma just a few days to rescue the royal family before she and the citizens launch their coup.

* AndIMustScream: They were transformed into ornaments by the Nome King, and were kept that way until Ozma saves them.

* AffablyEvil: A jolly monarch who is a sadist to his very core.

A typical farm girl living in the peaceful town of Butterfield, Kansas. One ordinary day, a mysterous cyclone whisks her away to Oz, where she begins an unforgettable journey as she makes her way home.

* ServileSnarker: Jellia, to the Scarecrow, though much of her snark is born out of frustration. Her iconic CompletelyUnnecessaryTranslator from the second book makes it into the series nearly wholsesale, but while her (much more cheerful) book counterpart was {{Troll}}ing the Scarecrow for the hell of it, this version is just letting all her frustrations out in one go.

The Good Witch of the North. After the Wizard of Oz is ousted as a fraud, Dorothy seeks her within Quadling Country so she can return home. In ''Marvellous Land'', Tip seeks her out to reclaim the Emerald City from Jinjur and her Munchkin army.

* TheChessmaster: A benevolent example. She pulls a lot of strings behind the scenes, especially in the first season, though unlike many examples of the character type, she does care about the people she manipulates and geniunely wants the best for them.

* WhenTreesAttack: The Fighting Trees are the first major obstacle Dorothy faces in the Quacking Country.

The long-lost princess of the Emerald City. After returning at the end of the ''Marvellous Land'', she takes center stage in her titular season, where she heads off to Ev to help save the land's royal family.

* DecompositeCharacter: As mentioned under Tip's section, in the books he and Ozma were the same person. In this series, though their circumstances are similar, they are clearly two separate characters with their oen separate minds and personalities. This becomes more and more obvious in the second season when Ozma starts interjecting her own opinions and takes on things during Tip's CharacterNarrator segments.

A Munchkin rebel and the daughter of General Malik. After Malik's execution, Jinjur decides to launch an invasion on the Emerald City to free the Munchkins from oppression and, in her words, "make Oz marvellous".

* KnowNothingKnowItAll: Subverted. At first he seems like a quentessential SmallNameBigEgo character who thinks he knows everything but doesn't actually have a clue -- but it turns out he actually does have a lot of useful knowledge and it's often a good idea to listen to what he has to say.

* SpannerInTheWorks: She managed to be one to the Nome King, managing to overhear what kind of keychains the royal family of Ev are by chance, and successfully relaying the news to Ozma.

* AndIMustScream: They were transformed into keychains by the Nome King, and were kept that way until Ozma saves them.

* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Banda's initially this to Langwidere, before she becomes fed up with the princess's rule.

* AdaptionalNiceGuy: In the original book, Langwidere was a vain and cruel princess all the way, who only joined Ozma's cause so she could admire herself with no interruption. Here's she doesn't want anything to do with ruling Ev, and when she gets her regular head back, she instantly supports Ozma.

* ThisMeansWar: [[At the end of ''Ozma'', he decides to make preparations to launch an invasion on the Emerald City as an act of vengeance against Ozma, foreshadowing an adaptation of ''The Emerald City of Oz''.]]

The rulers of Ev, held captive by the Nome King by the time '''Ozma of Oz''' begins.
