| 31 | |
| 32 | Elena's best friend, a practical, down-to-earth girl who serves on the Grand Council. Is described as an adventurer, and is not afraid to jump into action alongside Elena. Her father runs the docks. |
| 33 | ----- |
| 34 | * AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: In "My Fair Naomi", thanks to taking ''too many'' pages from Esteban (and he himself was in this whole ordeal to prove Doña Paloma wrong), she became obsessed with having the best party, that she ended up becoming more smug. Even Gabe notes this isn't her. |
| 35 | * AudienceSurrogate: Serves this role in most episodes. Naomi's reactions to the adventures Elena involves her in is something for the audience to relate to as they ease into the series. This role becomes even more prominent when the FramingDevice of ''Secret of Avalor'' is Elena telling Naomi (and by extension, the audience) her backstory. |
| 36 | * {{Backstory}}: The episode "Captain Turner's Return" and "Finder's Leapers." |
| 37 | * BestFriend: To Elena, the first female friend to Elena her biological age since coming out of the amulet. |
| 38 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Naomi's quite friendly, but she's also feisty and tough, in addition to proving to be ''very'' helpful against the villains Elena has to face. |
| 39 | * TheBusCameBack: [[spoiler: After leaving to travel the world in "The Last Laugh", Naomi returns to Avalor in "Giant Steps" after realizing that a life at sea wasn’t all it was cracked up to be and that it was wrong for her to abandon her friends and her duties in favor of her own desires, especially when Avalor needed her more than ever.]] |
| 40 | * DeadpanSnarker: Quick-witted, snarky, and sassy. |
| 41 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: It's not as noticeable as some cases but her character design has changed. Her face has gotten a little bit fuller, etc. WordOfGod confirmed that they changed it up to match her 2D design. |
| 42 | * ExpositoryHairstyleChange: As of "My Fair Naomi", her single strand of hair now simply hangs down instead of pinned back at her forehead. |
| 43 | * GirlinessUpgrade: In "My Fair Naomi", Esteban tries to turn her into a proper lady to impress Doña Paloma at her Quinceñera. As a result she becomes snooty, a perfectionist, and picks out a fancy dress with ruffles which she previously rejected. Though she still wears it at the end Naomi goes back to her old self again. |
| 44 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Has short, blonde hair, and is one of Elena's allies. |
| 45 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: She maintains a close and personal relationship with Elena. |
| 46 | * ImpossiblyTackyClothes: In "My Fair Naomi", while under AcquiredSituationalNarcissism thanks to Esteban, she picks out an overly fancy dress with ruffles that she had already rejected earlier when she wasn't taking cues from Esteban. Elena and Abuelita agree that it looks bad, but are too nice to say anything about it to Naomi. |
| 47 | * InnocentBlueEyes: Naomi's blue eyes match with her kind and heroic personality. |
| 48 | * ItsPersonal: Until she learned that the Sirenas have truly changed, she strongly distrusted them even after they helped defeat Shuriki because they were the reason she lost her grandfather, whom she never got to meet. |
| 49 | * IWantSong: "Something Special" from "Finders Leapers". She wants to be respected in her position as a member of the grand council. |
| 50 | * TheLancer: The [[RedOniBlueOni sensible contrast to Elena's energetic]]. |
| 51 | * LikeBrotherAndSister: According to Gabe and Mateo to Naomi. |
| 52 | * LikeParentLikeChild: |
| 53 | ** Naomi is a perfect blend of both her mother and father, with Scarlett's spunk and Daniel's down-to-earthness. |
| 54 | ** Like what her mother did with her father in "Captain Turner Returns", Naomi spins around Gabe and catches him in her arms while they dance in "The Magic Within". |
| 55 | * NiceGirl: Like Elena, kindhearted, loving, caring and brave. |
| 56 | * TheNotLoveInterest: What her role boils down to for Elena. They're always there for each other and Elena can especially count on her for support. No matter what, Naomi will always be the person Elena has to keep her company. |
| 57 | * PennyAmongDiamonds: A commoner that serves on the Royal Council and hangs around the palace with the princess. The reason for this choice is because she's TheHeart. |
| 58 | * PinkIsFeminine: Her purplish-pink formal dress. Notably, her formal dress doesn't look right on her, both because it looks too feminine for a tomboy such as Naomi and too fancy for a sailor's daughter like Naomi. |
| 59 | * PluckyGirl: Energetic, witty, and determined. |
| 60 | * PutOnABus: [[spoiler: After a reminder of her dream from her old friend Veronica, and with the mountain of bureaucratic work that the Council's had to take on with Esteban's absence, Naomi decides to leave Avalor and travel the seas, promising Elena that she will return when she's done. However, this only lasts for about three episodes and she’s back in Avalor as of "Giant Steps".]] |
| 61 | * ShoutOut: Possibly, since she shares her last name with [[Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean another famous Disney seafarer]]. |
| 62 | * TokenWhite: Almost everyone else in Avalor is Latino-appearing. Naomi and her family are originally from Norberg, the [=EverRealm=] equivalent of colonial-era America. |
| 63 | * {{Tomboy}}: She is a spunky and adventurous girl who knows all about seamanship and has no issue in getting her hands gritty when the time calls for it. |
| 64 | * TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The tomboy to Elena's girly-girl. |
| 65 | * TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: She wears a jewel necklace and would put on more formal attire when need be. |

| 71 | |
| 72 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Joseph Haro |
| 73 | ->'''Appearances:''' ''WesternAnimation/SofiaTheFirst'' | ''WesternAnimation/ElenaOfAvalor'' |
| 74 | |
| 75 | The new Royal Wizard and one of Elena's friends. His grandfather was the wizard who helped protect the royal family from being wiped out by Shuriki 41 years ago. |
| 76 | ----- |
| 77 | * AlmightyJanitor: He's still an apprentice, but he's one of the most powerful wizards in the kingdom. [[spoiler:By the end, he officially graduates to master wizard]]. |
| 78 | * BadassBookworm: He's a self-taught wizard with a vast amount of knowledge in his trade, and while he's not the most athletic sort, he makes up for it with spells that boost his mobility. In a magical duel, he's nothing to sneeze at, being able to defeat a vastly more experienced wizard [[spoiler:twice]]. |
| 79 | * ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: Most notably to [[WesternAnimation/SofiaTheFirst Cedric]], as Mateo fills the role of Sofia's wizard/sorcerer aide in the "Secret of Avalor" special. Both hail from families of magic lineage with close ties to their respective royals, but while Cedric received formal schooling for his abilities, Mateo had no choice but to teach himself. And whereas Cedric is rather jaded and bitter from years of being told he could never live up to his predecessors, Mateo's main motivation is to become as great a wizard as his grandfather. Aside from their occupations, they share many traits in common, such as doting (if at times overbearing) mothers, grade school-age apprentices, and funnily enough, a subplot where they were both enamored with a villainess in disguise. |
| 80 | * CostumeEvolution: Gets a new wizard's robe with more green accents, along with a fancier tamborita, following the events of "Spirit of a Wizard." |
| 81 | * CourtMage: Becomes the Royal Wizard in "Spellbound". He's insecure and feels like he doesn't deserve it, but by the end he grows more confident. |
| 82 | * DisappearedDad: His father is never brought up, and it's explicitly stated that Rafa raised Mateo by herself. According to WordOfGod, his father is not important to the story and thus will never be addressed. |
| 83 | * IncompletelyTrained: His grandfather was never around to teach him his art, so he's self-taught. Nonetheless, he still takes on an apprentice and he finds that experience is the best teacher. |
| 84 | * ItRunsInTheFamily: He has magical abilities like his grandfather Alakazar and is a Royal Wizard like he was. |
| 85 | * TheKlutz: He's a very capable sorcerer, but he can be quite clumsy in other fields, such as dancing or lassoing. He also has trouble doing tossing tricks with his tamborita early on, [[CharacterDevelopment which he improves on as the show goes on]]. |
| 86 | * LiteralMetaphor: In the first episode, he says he has a "few tricks up [his] sleeve" then pulls his tamborita from his literal sleeve. Naomi says he's been waiting all day for a chance to say that and he doesn't deny it. |
| 87 | * MagicWand: Instead of a traditional wand, Mateo uses a tamborita. |
| 88 | * MeaningfulName: |
| 89 | ** Maybe. In Hebrew, "Matteo" means "gift of God", referencing his gift at magic and being one of Elena's most trusted companions. |
| 90 | ** "de Alva" means [[LightIsGood "from brightness"]] or "the exalted one". |
| 91 | * NiceGuy: Mateo is helpful, friendly, and kind-hearted. |
| 92 | * NoSell: Mateo's magic cannot break hexes or affect enchantments. |
| 93 | * NoSavingThrow: By the same token, Mateo can conjure a magic barrier that can defend against Fiero's magic, but somehow it doesn't work against [[spoiler:Shuriki's]]. |
| 94 | * PerpetualPoverty: Even though Mateo is the Royal Wizard, it’s implied in “Sweetheart’s Day” that the Palace doesn’t pay him enough or reimburse him for his supplies. |
| 95 | * PlatonicLifePartners: With Elena, considering he was involved with her freedom from the amulet. They have a very strong bond, but the emphasis is primarily on their friendship. Nevertheless, moments of Ship Tease aren't uncommon (see below), and even Craig Gerber himself has implied that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXFzNBi74JY&t=11m28s Mateo's feelings for Elena may not be purely platonic]].[[note]]According to that interview, Mateo is "constantly trying to get her attention," but "isn't always getting it the way he wants."[[/note]] |
| 96 | * PrettyBoy: In contrast to Gabe's HeroicBuild, Mateo has softer facial features and a skinny physique, but his slenderness lends to his handsomeness. |
| 97 | * RedIsHeroic: Wears maroon wizard robes. |
| 98 | * SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Zigzagged with Gabe. Mateo specializes in intellectual matters such as studying magic, history and ancient languages, his athletic skills aren't anything to write home about, and he's generally the more expressive and excitable of the two. However, Mateo's also marked by a deep personal drive to prove himself in magical matters (most notably in "The Scepter of Night"), which can put him in conflict with the group, especially the more by-the-book Gabe. This also makes him (at times) less sensitive to the feelings of others. |
| 99 | * ShipTease: |
| 100 | ** Mostly with Elena, their friendship notwithstanding. While too many to list down, there are some moments that stand out. |
| 101 | *** In "Party of a Lifetime", he's overjoyed to be called her best friend and gets very possessive over the title [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything in a way reminiscent of a jealous boyfriend]]. |
| 102 | *** In "Movin' On Up", after moving into the palace, the last scene has him and Elena looking out of the window together and placing their arms around each other, sort of [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything reminiscent of a couple that has just begun living together in their first shared apartment]]. |
| 103 | *** In "The Magic Within", when Elena needs something about love to summon her emotion magic, Mateo is about to happily suggest something before he's cut off by Flo. |
| 104 | ** A bit of it with Carla as well (starting off when she was disguised as "Rita"), whom he developed some kind of crush on until the betrayal. [[spoiler:After she has her HeelFaceTurn, they have a little more of this.]] |
| 105 | * TheSmartGuy: When it comes to magic and magical creatures. |
| 106 | * TookALevelInBadass: In "Spellbound", when he saves the court and wins his first WizardDuel against Fiero. He takes it up a few notches in "Song of the Sirenas", [[spoiler:once again facing off against Fiero. Three guesses who wins.]] |
| 107 | * TrainingTheGiftOfMagic: At first, he was still learning to be a wizard and hadn't mastered many spells yet. He later improves and even trains his own apprentice. |
| 108 | * WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Mateo has a fear of riding horses or equinophobia. |

| 118 | |
| 119 | A young royal guardsman assigned to bodyguard Elena. He often gets dragged into Elena's adventures. |
| 120 | ---- |
| 121 | * AudienceSurrogate: Shares this role with Naomi. Being the new guy in the palace, his unfamiliarity with the types of adventures Elena gets involved in becomes something the audience can relate to. |
| 122 | * AwesomenessByAnalysis: As shown in "The Princess Knight", Gabe can gauge the strengths and weaknesses of opponents in order to come up with strategies to defeat them. |
| 123 | * {{Backstory}}: The episode Olaball explains his motivations. He's the son of a baker and his father has never quite accepted him not succeeding him and becoming a guard. |
| 124 | * BadassInDistress: Has gotten captured while trying to protect the princesses in the first episode only. |
| 125 | * BigDamnHeroes: Saved Isabel and Princess Caterina in the episode Olaball. He climbed up a pole using nothing put a piece of rope and effectively got them both down to safety. |
| 126 | * TheBigGuy: Even though he's not physically huge or intimidating, he's still the main fighter of the group. |
| 127 | * BlueIsHeroic: The Avaloran Royal Guard's uniform is blue with a few red accents. |
| 128 | * BodyguardCrush: He has a huge crush on Elena since the first episode. Confirmed in the official guide and via WordOfGod. |
| 129 | * BodyguardingABadass: Is overprotective of Elena even though she can usually handle herself. |
| 130 | * ButtMonkey: At least in "Spellbound". Taken to hilarious levels in "Prince Too Charming", where almost the entire episode he is the OnlySaneMan being walked all over, especially during the Prince's musical number. |
| 131 | * CaptainSmoothAndSergeantRough: Inverted between Gabe and Elena. Elena, to whom Gabe answers to, is a free-spirited and sometimes hotheaded ruler. Gabe, even though his rank is technically captain, acts very professional. |
| 132 | * CommandingCoolness: Even though his rank is lieutenant, the effect is still the same in that he is in charge of much of the Royal Guards. Now, he's Captain of The Guard, so this trope is played straighter. |
| 133 | * ConsummateProfessional: When Gabe's on duty, he's on duty. While on duty, even though he interacts with Elena as a friend and is allowed to, he will still refer to her by title anyways. In fact, he considers lack of teamwork very unprofessional. When he's not on duty, he's more sociable. |
| 134 | * CoolHorse: Has a horse that comes to a whistle in episode 10 and a personality of it's own. |
| 135 | * DoesNotLikeMagic: It's evident during "Spellbound" that he's somewhat uncomfortable with magic. This often gets him [[TheWorfEffect Worfed]] since most of the show's villains have magical powers, and in "Captain Mateo" he even gets temporarily demoted over it. He finally covers for it by making Mateo his advisor. |
| 136 | * DorkKnight: His awkwardness doesn't take away from his competence. |
| 137 | * DrillSergeantNasty: Averted. Instead, Gabe simply acts very stoic, [[BrutalHonesty is brutally honest]], and throws in one SchmuckBait test for new recruits. |
| 138 | * EnsignNewbie: Gabe is the new guy, and he's made lieutenant and has ranking status in the Royal Guard. This is deconstructed in that being an officer fresh from the academy, an occupational hazard for him is that he gets captured, even though he puts a lot of effort into his position. |
| 139 | * HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: In "Spellbound," he let Fiero, an [[ObviouslyEvil Obviously]] EvilSorcerer, into the castle after being tricked, and never noticed anything strange about him. Naomi even lampshades how stupid that was of Gabe. |
| 140 | * {{Hunk}}: Has a muscular body, square-shaped jaw, and is a cutie. |
| 141 | * HypocriticalHumor: He doesn't believe that Mateo can be the royal wizard due to his age, but he himself is a member of the Royal Guard despite being around the same age; Elena even lampshades it. |
| 142 | * InstantExpert: Subverted; it takes him all day and night to learn to play olaball with Elena's help. However, by the next day and he's able to play his own way, he's shown to be great at it. |
| 143 | * IWantSong: "Captain of the Guard", about his lifelong dream to become, well, Captain of the Guard. |
| 144 | * JackOfAllTrades: Shown to have several skills as he is a guard. Knows how to sail in "Prince Too Charming", tactics and strategy in "The Princess Knight", can ride a horse in "The Scepter of Light." His back story implies that he knows how to bake in "Olaball" even if he might not be great at it. |
| 145 | * JerkassBall: Subverted, In "Spellbound", Gabe treats Mateo with derision and scorn, doubting that he can cut it as a royal sorcerer, let alone defeat Fiero. He even initially blames Mateo over the whole ballroom being TakenForGranite, thinking that Mateo must have cast a spell wrong. Though he does finally admit he was wrong when Mateo saves the day. By the end he gives Mateo all of the credit for defeating Fiero. |
| 146 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Gabe has been known to be somewhat mean at times (see JerkassBall) but proves himself to be a caring, reasonable person with a soft side. |
| 147 | * LadyAndKnight: Subverted. He ''thinks'' he's going to have this relationship with Elena, but she is capable of protecting herself and has even saved him a few times. |
| 148 | * TheLoad: A downplayed example; While he is genuinely skilled and competent, he has yet to make a sizable contribution against the kind of enemies shown in the series so far. He is good at strategy and tactics and presumably other skills necessary to be a guard. If anything, he's a lot better with his brains than in the field. |
| 149 | * LoyalToThePosition: At the end of the day, he won't let friendship get in the way of doing his duty, because if the grand council gives him a mandate, his hands are tied. And usually, he's very reluctant to go against the boss (i.e. Esteban). |
| 150 | * ManlyTears: Teared up at the idea that Naomi was leaving Avalor, but refused to say that he was crying. |
| 151 | * MasterSwordsman: For a young officer, he's already a master at sword fighting and fencing. While fencing with Elena without holding back, he [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomps]] her. |
| 152 | * MeaningfulName: |
| 153 | ** [[ArchangelGabriel Gabriel]] is the name of one of [[Literature/TheBible God]]'s [[TheLancer archangels]]. |
| 154 | ** "Núñez" is a last name believed to have been derived from the Latin word "nonnus", meaning "squire" or "chamberlain". |
| 155 | * TheMentor: To Elena in "The Princess Knight". |
| 156 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: |
| 157 | ** The entire plot of "Spellbound" occurs because [[spoiler:Gabe let [[EvilSorcerer Fiero]] into the castle, and didn't even notice anything strange about him]]. |
| 158 | ** In "The Scepter of Light", just when Elena is on the verge of defeating Orizaba, Gabe inadvertently saves the moth fairy by moving a carriage in front of her to help with Isabel, in an attempt to "protect" Elena. This caused him to block the light from the Scepter long enough for her to regain her strength. |
| 159 | * OffScreenMomentOfAwesome: [[spoiler:In "Coronation Day", he manages to restrain Ixlan off-screen after Vuli drives her to madness with his [[TheCorrupter chaos touch]].]] |
| 160 | * OfficerAndAGentleman: Gabe almost never loses his composure, even in the worst of situations, and he's very professional. |
| 161 | * PennyAmongDiamonds: While most of the Guard are from wealthy and high class families, he's the son of a baker. The Guard is egalitarian enough that he's still respected and it doesn't keep him from advancing, but some of the other guards still tease him over it. |
| 162 | * RankUp: Gets promoted to Captain of the Royal Guard after his boss retires. |
| 163 | * SecondEpisodeIntroduction: He's introduced in "First Day of Rule". |
| 164 | * SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Zigzagged with Mateo. On the surface he's every bit the Manly Man as a soldier who acts with the dignity and dedication that people would normally expect from someone twice his age. However, he's more open with his emotions and generally the more empathetic of the two; examples include crying when Naomi was thought to be leaving, being open with his feelings toward his dad, feeling hurt when the other guards were bullying him, and being the first to chase after Isabel when her Navidad was ruined. |
| 165 | * ShipTease: |
| 166 | ** With Elena. At the beginning of the series, he tries to get close to her due to his BodyguardCrush on her, it’s unknown if he still has it. |
| 167 | ** In "Norberg Peace Prize", Princess Chloe is all over him but realizes he'd rather spend Family Day with Naomi. [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy Chloe]] is okay [[ShipperOnDeck with this.]] |
| 168 | ** He dances with Naomi during Carnaval in "The Magic Within". |
| 169 | *** One of the writers on the show confirmed that his moment with Naomi was just a friendship, nothing more. |
| 170 | * TheStrategist: His rank of lieutenant, and eventual captain is ''not'' just for show. Gabe is one of the most skilled tacticians whose gift for strategy came in useful, especially in sword fighting and fencing. Perhaps this is partially why he got such a promotion at such a young age. |
| 171 | * VocalTagTeam: Joins in with Elena for a carol at first before the entire city joins in. |
| 172 | * WellDoneSonGuy: Just wanted to make his dad proud of him when he joined the olaball team. All his dad cared about was baking and olaball. |
| 173 | * WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: "The Gecko's Tale" reveals that he's afraid of geckos. |
| 174 | * YoungAndInCharge: While he does have a boss (who appears separately and has yet to interact with him), he's only eighteen with a ranking status among adult guards. Now he's the head of the Royal Guard. |
| 175 | * YouAreInCommandNow: His boss, Captain Sandoval of the Royal Guard, was retiring, so he was chosen to succeed him. |

| 186 | |
| 187 | Elena's younger sister and a inventor. She was trapped in a painting with her grandparents until Elena came back and freed them. |
| 188 | ----- |
| 189 | * AdorablyPrecociousChild: Isabel is someone who's highly intelligent and capable of making great inventions. She's also a young girl who's cute as a button. The flashbacks in "Dia De Las Madres" showed that she's been this since she was a baby. |
| 190 | * AffectionateNickname: Her sister calls her "Isa". |
| 191 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Averted. She and Elena have a great relationship, even when she's subject to NotNowKiddo moments. |
| 192 | * ArtEvolution: She gets a slightly older animation model starting in season 3. |
| 193 | * AscendedExtra: Granted, she's already a main character, but she becomes more directly involved in Elena's adventures starting in season 3. Special mention goes to episodes like "Sister of Invention", "Team Isa", and "Heart of the Jaguar". |
| 194 | * TheBabyOfTheBunch: Of Team Avalor. Isabel is the youngest and most [[ChildrenAreInnocent innocent]] of the group and some her spotlight episode features her trying to show the older members she's more mature and capable. |
| 195 | * BadassAdorable: She's a cute and spunky young girl, and is very capable of defending herself. |
| 196 | * BadassNormal: She may have no magic powers, but she can still hold her own thanks to her brain and heart. |
| 197 | * BigSisterWorship: Isabel greatly looks up to Elena. |
| 198 | * BlueIsHeroic: Isabel's usually wears a blue dress but is a kindhearted young woman whose firmly on the heroes' side. |
| 199 | * BrainyBrunette: She is a brown-haired pre-teen who can invent stuff beyond her age and is exceptionally bright in math, physics, and science. |
| 200 | * CharacterDevelopment: Her arc in Season 3 involves her becoming more confident and leaderly. In "Sister of Invention", she devises a plan that saves Elena from falling into blue lava, and becomes part of her group as a result. In "Team Isa", she forms a group of friends of her ''own'' and manages to save Elena and her group of friends from Tito. In "Shooting Stars", she's the one who helps ''Elena'' with her anxiety emotions. In "Heart of the Jaguar", she is given a test by Quita Moz that ''greatly'' improves her courage. And finally, in [[GrandFinale "Coronation Day"]], [[spoiler:she leads everyone else as Crown Princess into devising ideas to stop the Four Shades, gets Hetz electrocuted with his own lightning, and gets named the Royal Inventor by Elena during her coronation to become Queen.]] |
| 201 | * ChildProdigy: Her inventions are way too advanced for a preteen girl. |
| 202 | * ChildrenAreInnocent: After [[spoiler:Esteban's betrayal is revealed and he betrays them again]], Isabel has conflicted feelings about it but decides not to bring it up to Elena when the latter believes that {{Unperson}}ning that person would be better for her emotion powers. |
| 203 | * TheCutie: Isabel embraces this role due to how she's cute, innocent, and very idealistic. |
| 204 | * FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Downplayed, as Isabel does tend to have a good head on her shoulders but often does some rash actions to prove her maturity. |
| 205 | * GadgeteerGenius: She invents a lot of things. |
| 206 | * GenkiGirl: It's downplayed, but she does have a tendency to get excited when something goes well. |
| 207 | * GradeSkipper: Went to and graduated from college as a preteen. |
| 208 | * InkSuitActor: She looks like Jenna Ortega dead-on, especially the hair. |
| 209 | * LikeBrotherAndSister: With Esteban, although it seems to be a bit like a PromotionToParent for him at times. |
| 210 | * MeaningfulName: Isabel, Princess Imperial of Brazil, was the heiress presumptive of the Empire of Brazil after her brothers died. [[TokenGoodTeammate She was also against slavery and emancipated the slaves in Brazil despite the unpopularity this brought to her]], which led to her getting exiled to France. |
| 211 | * MoralityPet: While Esteban can be annoyed with Isabel's antics at times, she's also the one he's most consistently nice to. His [[WordOfSaintPaul voice actor]] even stated that while Esteban would betray anyone, he would never do such an act to Isabel. |
| 212 | * NiceGirl: While she can think of herself at times, she's nonetheless sweet and compassionate towards others, always willing to help those in need. |
| 213 | * RaisedByGrandparents: Downplayed. Isabel's parents were involved in her childhood but they were killed 41 years prior to the series. Now, the parental roles in Isabel's life are shared between [[PromotionToParent Elena]], [[ParentalSubstitute Esteban]], and her grandparents. |
| 214 | * Really700YearsOld: She is around her fifties, possibly her sixties since time is passing, having been stuck in a painting for 41 years. |
| 215 | * ShipTease: She dances with Prince James near the end of "Coronation Day". |
| 216 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: By "The Magic Within", her character model is updated to make her look like a younger version of Elena. |
| 217 | * TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: She is a young inventor who is skilled at building and fixing things and doesn't mind getting dirty while doing so. But she still wears feminine clothing such as her signature blue dress and bow and gushes over anything cute. |
| 218 | * TookALevelInBadass: While she's not defenseless, as the show goes on, she's able to greatly defend herself in dangerous situations. This all culminates in "Coronation Day", where she [[spoiler: leads Avalor in Elena's absence when she's trapped in the spirit world.]] |
| 219 | * TookALevelInKindness: While she's always been a nice person, as she's gotten older, she's been more considerate of others and less prone to acting impulsive. |
| 220 | * TrueBlueFemininity: She wears a blue dress and a blue hair ribbon to match, showing she's an ally to her older sister. |
| 221 | * WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Has a fear of either heights or falling. She wasn't exactly to be thrilled to be at the top of a tower with no way to get down on a windy day. She seems to have grown out of it by "Sugar Rush", where she's riding on a hydro-gondola she helped make. |
| 222 | * WrenchWench: Elena gives her a journal to record her various inventions. |

| 232 | ->'''Voiced by:''' Emiliano Díez (Francisco) and Julia Vera (Luisa) |
| 233 | ->'''Appearances:''' ''WesternAnimation/SofiaTheFirst'' | ''WesternAnimation/ElenaOfAvalor'' |
| 234 | |
| 235 | Elena and Isabel's maternal grandparents, who were trapped in the magic painting along with Isabel until Elena came back. They are both members of the Grand Council that help Elena make decisions as ruler of Avalor. |
| 236 | ----- |
| 237 | [[AC:Tropes that apply to both]] |
| 238 | * BlueBoyPinkGirl: Francisco wears a nearly all blue uniform while Luisa wears a pink dress. |
| 239 | * ChubbyMamaSkinnyPapa: Luisa is a short, fat woman while Francisco is a tall, thin man. |
| 240 | * EasilyForgiven: [[spoiler:After Esteban's betrayal is revealed, Francisco thinks it over and decides to forgive him after he explains [[IJustWantToBeLoved why he did it]], believing that Esteban has changed since then. On the other hand, when Luisa chips in saying that while her husband may be a kind and wise man, [[BaitAndSwitch he is wrong to forgive him]] because what their grandson has done is [[ThisIsUnforgivable unforgivable]].]] |
| 241 | * GoodParents: Both of them are very kind to their daughters and grandchildren. In particular, Luisa had been acting as a surrogate mother to many Avalorian children over the years, and lucky for them she's still around. |
| 242 | * HappilyMarried: They are both openly affectionate, loving, and thoughtful of each other. |
| 243 | * TheMentor: They both act as this to Elena while helping her grow into her role as leader. |
| 244 | * OutlivingOnesOffspring: They ended up outliving their daughter Lucia after she and Raul were killed by Shuriki, and Margarita, Esteban's mother. |
| 245 | * ParentalSubstitute: They raised Esteban [[LikeASonToMe as if he were their own son]] after his parents died. |
| 246 | |
| 247 | [[AC:Tropes that apply to "Abuelo" Francisco]] |
| 248 | * BigEater: Francisco does love his food. In "Three Jaquins and a Princess", he finishes off a huge breakfast with a comment on how he needs to "eat light." |
| 249 | * PapaWolf: Whatever bad experience his daughter faced [[spoiler:(such as breaking her wrist in a fencing match and losing her life to Shuriki)]], Francisco will keep his granddaughters from experiencing the same. |
| 250 | * ThatRemindsMeOfASong: Francisco almost always has his guitar on him in case he needs to break out into a musical number. |
| 251 | * RunningGag: Francisco calling for his guitar, which suddenly appears from an arm off-screen or is handed one to him by a background character. |
| 252 | -->''"Guitar!"'' |
| 253 | * VigilanteMan: In his youth, Francisco was part of a trio of vigilante noblemen known as "Los Tres". He quit after the other two died in an accident, but when their ghosts return for Dia de Los Muertos, they decide to go on one last mission. |
| 254 | |
| 255 | [[AC:Tropes that apply to "Abuela" Luisa]] |
| 256 | * BaitAndSwitchComment: Luisa's reaction when Francisco decides to [[spoiler:forgive Esteban for betraying them all to Shuriki. She acknowledges her husband is a kind and wise man, but states outright that [[ThisIsUnforgivable he's wrong to forgive him]], since Esteban's actions cost them their daughter and son-in-law.]] |
| 257 | -->'''Luisa''': You're a wise and thoughtful man, mi amor. But today... you are wrong. |
| 258 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Crosses into MamaBear -- As soon as Luisa learns that her daughter was ''deliberately'' injured in a fencing match, she is furious. Valentina's rudeness also gets to her. |
| 259 | ** [[spoiler:Not even her own grandson is safe from this, as she effectively disowns him once she learns that he took her love for granted by getting her daughter & son-in-law killed and being complicit to Shuriki's regime.]] |
| 260 | * CompetitionFreak: And how; Luisa would have kicked Gabe off of the olaball team if she had the chance. |
| 261 | * CoolOldLady: Luisa may be old, but she's an active pro at olaball. |
| 262 | * DrillSergeantNasty: Luisa when it comes to olaball, not afraid to command around the others including her own granddaughter. |
| 263 | * GrannyClassic: Luisa is a sweet and kind lady who was chosen for the Grand Council for her optimism. |
| 264 | * MamaBear: |
| 265 | ** Luisa is furious when she learns that Lucia was hurt on purpose by her fencing opponent, even though the incident happened several decades before she found out. |
| 266 | ---> '''Luisa:''' You should leave before I challenge ''you'' to a duel. |
| 267 | ** [[spoiler:She disowns Esteban after learning that he got Lucia and Raul killed, because even if he may be her grandson, she lost her daughter and son-in-law.]] |
| 268 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: In "Dia de las Madres", upon realizing Esteban wasn't a part of the family portrait from her favorite Mother's Day, she becomes deeply remorseful, believing he was right about how their family treated him, and that she failed [[RaisedByGrandparents him]] as a ParentalSubstitute. [[spoiler:Another past memory proves otherwise.]] |
| 269 | * ThisIsUnforgivable: [[spoiler:Luisa refuses to forgive Esteban for betraying his family and Avalor because he indirectly killed her daughter and son-in-law, and believes that it would be wrong to ever forgive him. As of "Dia de las Madres", this may be starting to change. If anything, despite what she said to him then, she doesn't love him any less. In "Coronation Day", she delivers a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to him regarding how him usurping the throne will mean his people [[ZeroPercentApprovalRating won't respect him]] or [[LonelyAtTheTop love him]], but forgives him after Elena reveals that he was willing to [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifice his life]] for hers]]. |
| 270 | * WasTooHardOnHim: [[spoiler:Luisa may have condemned Esteban for his betrayal and being the cause of the loss of her daughter, but Esteban clearly took it as her not loving him anymore. This is far from the truth. In "Dia de Las Madres", Luisa does feel like she did come off as too harsh on him accounting for everything he went through before that fateful day, and makes it clear despite what he did and even if she can't forgive him for it, she doesn't love Esteban any less. It's rather telling that when the issue of whether Esteban should be forgiven is brought up again, Luisa doesn't take a side]]. |

| 286 | ---- |
| 287 | * ADayInTheLimelight: "All Kingdoms Fair" focuses on him trying to maintain the titular fair for Elena and Naomi while his overly critical brother is in town. |
| 288 | * HiddenDepths: |
| 289 | ** Revealed to be a very talented baker in "Three Jaquins and a Princess." |
| 290 | ** "Coronation Day" shows that he's ''really'' good at running puppet shows. |
| 291 | * IronicName: "Armando" means "army man", but he's not quite fit and he's not in the Royal Guard. |
| 292 | * MommasBoy: He's very much dedicated to his mother, though she dotes on him a bit too much. Then in "Dia De Las Madres" when he's told it's mother's day, he panics because he forgot, and rushes to get gifts for her. |
| 293 | * MeaningfulName: "Armando" means "army man", befitting how he's in charge of the royal staff. |

| 304 | An ancient Maruvian warrior. |
| 305 | ---- |
| 306 | * AloofAlly: Has made a list of everything she finds wrong about Elena, and that's just one among numerous examples of her being this. [[DefrostingIceQueen She ultimately becomes increasingly accepting and protective of Elena and her other friends.]] |
| 307 | * AmbiguouslyGay: Gets ShipTease with Antonia at the end of "Coronation Day". |
| 308 | * BadassBoast: |
| 309 | ** To [[spoiler:Esteban]] regarding his {{teleportation}} abilities and her [[ManOfKryptonite countering them]], "You are very fast... but I am faster." |
| 310 | ** Right before taking on Vuli, to Valentina and Alonso: "I send him back to the Spirit World, you tell the tale of my victory." |
| 311 | * BloodKnight: While being made to relax by Naomi, she reveals that her "happy place" is on the battlefield, conquering everything in her path. |
| 312 | * BrutalHonesty: She indulges in this a lot. |
| 313 | * TheComicallySerious: |
| 314 | ** After being freed, the people she [[MistakenIdentity mistakens]] for Princess Elena (whom she was foretold about) are Naomi (a sailor), [[spoiler:Carla (a criminal)]], and she even goes as far as to misgender [[spoiler:Victor]]. |
| 315 | ** Additionally, she makes a comment to Naomi about how a joke from Mateo to Elena is not funny. |
| 316 | ** She has quite a few funny moments and scenes in "Elena's Day Off" when it comes to Naomi and Isabel as well. |
| 317 | * CompetitionFreak: She treats practically everything like a competition. |
| 318 | * DefrostingIceQueen: In "Elena's Day Off", she gradually comes to appreciate Naomi and Isabel trying to get her and Elena to relax, introduces a Maruvian relaxing technique, and is willing to grant the same courtesy to Doña Paloma. |
| 319 | * FishOutOfTemporalWater: Since she doesn't understand what a Girl's Day is, nor that not everything is a competition, she has to be filled in. |
| 320 | * InformedAttribute: The synopsis for "The Lightning Warrior" states that she is a princess, but there is no indication she is one. |
| 321 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She tends to be very stoic, sarcastic, and is quick to point out what's wrong with something. At the same time, she will also defend anyone who's put into danger. |
| 322 | * LastOfHisKind: She is the only living Maruvian left. |
| 323 | * LivingRelic: Quite frankly, Ixlan the last person to have been alive during the Maruvian civilization, which has been a mystery to Avalorans. She's the only living Maruvian to speak her people's language and retain any knowledge of Maruvian customs. After being sealed for a millenium, she finds herself in a new civilization where their culture is completely different from hers. |
| 324 | * ManOfKryptonite: Her SuperSpeed makes her one to [[spoiler:Esteban]] of all people, allowing her to easily counter his {{Teleportation}} abilities. |
| 325 | * MysteriousPast: Her past prior to becoming Quita Moz's pupil and the Defender of Maruvians is unknown. |
| 326 | * NoodleIncident: She was sealed away in a temple on a remote island by dark magic. Quita Moz originally thought she vanished with the rest of the Maruvians, unaware of what truly happened to her until the events of the show. |
| 327 | * NotQuiteDead: Quita Moz believed she disappeared along with the other Maruvians, but receives a vision in "The Lightning Warrior" that revealed to him that she was in fact sealed away. |
| 328 | * ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Due to her sealing, she's over a thousand years old and hasn't died of old age. |
| 329 | * SamusIsAGirl: [[spoiler:Victor]] is legitimately shocked to find out she's a woman. |
| 330 | * SixthRanger: Towards the end of "The Lightning Warrior", she joins Team Avalor. |
| 331 | * SmugSuper: She tends to look down on others due to her strength, [[EveryoneHasStandards save for the princess wielding the Scepter of Light]]. In "Coronation Day", after having the powers and abilities of the members of Team Ash explained to her, she bluntly remarks that she isn't impressed. |
| 332 | * SoleSurvivor: She is the last surviving Maruvian, the rest having [[NeverSayDie vanished to the Spirit World]]. |
| 333 | * TheStoic: She hardly expresses her emotions, and very rarely smiles. |
| 334 | * TrueBeautyIsOnTheInside: When she meets Naomi, [[spoiler:Carla, and Victor]] and mistakes them for Princess Elena, she doesn't care about how they do not have the appropriate attire for princesses and introduces herself to them staunchly anyways (partially due to Naomi picking up Elena's Scepter). By contrast, when she does meet Elena, who has the proper attire and beauty of a princess, she is initially [[BrokenPedestal disappointed]], as Elena is the one she so easily defeated. |
| 335 | * TheWorfEffect: [[spoiler:In "Coronation Day", she proves no match for the Shades of Awesome. Her attempt to charge Hetz is easily deflected, while her later attack on Vuli is even less successful; while she does land a hit to his stomach, he claims it "[[NoSell tickles]]", and another of her punches is easily [[PunchCatch caught]] by him. She is then turned against her allies by his chaos power (and to add insult to injury, Gabe manages to restrain her off-screen).]] |

| 348 | * ActionGirl: She's an exceptional fencer, having learned by watching her father practice fencing with his fellow guardsmen and then copying them. She's good enough to best Rocco (who has been trained his whole life by his family) and pirates in fencing combat. |
| 349 | * AmbiguouslyGay: Gets ShipTease with Ixlan at the end of "Coronation Day". |
| 350 | * ArtisticAge: It's not known how old she is, but she seems to be around Elena's age. She's presumably at least 18 if she can join the Royal Guard. |
| 351 | * ChekhovsGun: After Elena shows her a fencing move where you leap behind your opponent and strike them while they're caught by surprise (which she had learned from Gabe herself), Antonia uses this to defeat Rocco in fencing practice. |
| 352 | * ConsummateProfessional: Even more so than Gabe. Antonia is ''very'' professional when performing her duties and around Elena and others above her, even when she’s going through hardship. If she has to disagree with Elena, she will WithDueRespect. Elena tells her that it's okay to be more casual with her since they're friends. |
| 353 | * DisappearedDad: Her father is referred to in the past tense, heavily implying that he's dead. |
| 354 | * HeroicBSOD: She becomes discouraged when Rocco tricks their teammates into leaving her behind during the labyrinth test, as she believes that neither her skill or perseverance will matter as long as she's not accepted by the others. |
| 355 | * HeroicLineage: Her father Rodrigo was a member of the Royal Guard, which Gabe recognizes as noteworthy. |

| 371 | |
| 372 | Three Jaquins, magical flying creatures who befriend Elena and help her on her adventures. Migs is the sensible one, Luna is the sassy one, and Skylar is the fun-loving one. |
| 373 | ----- |
| 374 | * AllThereInTheManual: The Essential Guide and WordOfGod state that Skylar and Luna are cousins. |
| 375 | * ButtMonkey: Migs. If something bad happens, it's usually he in the receiving end of it. |
| 376 | * CoolBigBro: Skylar has a great relationship with his younger brother, Nico. |
| 377 | * DaChief: Migs is made the new leader of the Avalor Guardians by the end of "Father-in-Chief". |
| 378 | * FreudianTrio: Skylar is the Id, Luna is the Ego, and Migs is the Superego. |
| 379 | * FurryReminder: They snarl every now and then. |
| 380 | * GoodParents: Migs dotes on his children, worrying about them, getting them food, and even telling Elena that a national festival is less important than making sure his kids are happy. |
| 381 | * HappilyMarried: Migs has a mate named Dulce, and in Season 2, their three kids are born. |
| 382 | * HiddenDepths: Beneath that fun-loving personality, Skylar is aware of his royal duties, afraid of letting people down, and capable of standing up for himself when needed. |
| 383 | * LoyalAnimalCompanion: All of them to Elena, although Skylar is usually the one who accompanies her on adventures. |
| 384 | * MeaningfulName: |
| 385 | ** Migs is presumably derived from "Miguel", which is the Spanish version of [[ArchangelMichael "Michael", like the archangel]]--and he is associated with the sun, to fill out the trio's celestial theme. |
| 386 | ** Luna is Spanish for "the moon". |
| 387 | ** Skylar contains "sky" in his name. |
| 388 | * OddNameOut: Played with; initially Migs seems to be the only one without a name associated with the sky, until you consider the derivation mentioned under MeaningfulName. At which point Skylar becomes the odd name out, since his is then the only one without a Spanish origin. |
| 389 | * ReallyRoyaltyReveal: As revealed in his DayInTheLimelight, Skylar's the crown prince of the jaquins. This is presumably why he only allows Elena and Sofia to ride him. |
| 390 | * SapientSteed: The trio often allow the heroes to ride on their backs whenever they need a flying ride or a boost of speed that traveling overland wouldn't give them. People didn't ride jaquins before the ''Secret of Avalor''; it started because Skyler allows Sofia to ride on his back to help her out on her mission to save Elena. |
| 391 | * SassyBlackWoman: Luna acts like one. |
| 392 | * StopHavingFunGuy: Migs is viewed this way by Skylar and the production notes even compare him to [[Series/{{Cheers}} Frasier Crane]]. Amusingly, in "Flight of the Jaquins", the shoe is on the other...paw?...when being chosen as the cubs' trainer causes Skylar to have to be more responsible, so his little brother Nico views him this way in turn. |
| 393 | * ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: In contrast with Migs who rarely deviates from jaquin laws and Skylar who will follow them if reluctantly, Luna will happily defy them if she feels they're unfair. |
| 394 | * TalkingAnimal: Since they're magic and all. |
| 395 | * {{Troll}}: During Shuriki's reign, they often sung very loudly around her (knowing full well that she hates music) and stole her food whenever she ate outside as a form of rebellion. |
| 396 | ---> '''Skyler:''' [Shuriki] outlawed music.\ |
| 397 | '''Sofia:''' Why?\ |
| 398 | '''Migs:''' Because she wanted everyone to forget the old Avalor.\ |
| 399 | '''Skyler:''' That's why we jaquins still sing; to remind everyone that the spirit of Avalor lives on.\ |
| 400 | '''Luna:''' And because it really bugs Shuriki. |
| 401 | * VagueAge: Apparently, they're all old enough to have known Elena since before Shuriki came, implying that jaquins age differently from humans. |
| 402 | * VegetarianCarnivore: They're seen fighting over a bunch of coconuts in one episode. This could, however, be [[JustifiedTrope justified]] by their bird side making them omnivores instead of strict carnivores. ''Elena and The Secret of Avalor'' shows them stealing chicken, which means they do also eat meat. |

| 410 | |
| 411 | Alacazar's and later Elena's spirit animal. He has the form of a wily fox. Normally a person can only see their spirit animal under special circumstances, but being trapped in the amulet seems to have left Elena with residue magic and now she can see Zuzo whenever she needs to. |
| 412 | ----- |
| 413 | * AdvertisedExtra: Despite being advertised as a main character, he's more of a recurring character. |
| 414 | * BrutalHonesty: Not always, but when he feels like a lesson really needs to leave a mark he will bluntly tell Elena how badly she messed up. |
| 415 | * CowboyCop: Even among spirit guides he's a bit of a maverick, letting Elena into the spirit world despite strict rules against it just to improve her confidence (and possibly to get Cacahuate out of his funk). |
| 416 | * DimensionalTraveler: Like all spirit guides, he can travel in and out of the spirit world and mortal world at will and take others with him. |
| 417 | * FantasticFoxes: A magical talking trickster fox. |
| 418 | * GreatGazoo: Not as powerful as most examples, but definitely qualifies. He makes fun of his own status as a SpiritAdvisor by giving Elena a stern warning that she needs to get downstairs right now [[BaitAndSwitch or she'll be late for breakfast]], uses his powers to zip around, dance with himself, and pull himself out of a hat, and appears in full skeleton costume during Día de los Muertos before rushing off to join a conga line in the spirit world. |
| 419 | * MagicalGuide: Gives Elena advice when she's having problems. When she starts seeing ghosts, she immediately calls him for advice. |
| 420 | * SpiritAdvisor: Only Elena can see him. If others want to see him, a wizard has to summon him. |
| 421 | * SummonMagic: Mateo has a specific ritual and circle for summoning him. Elena, whether due to her own magic or because he's her spirit guide ([[TakeAThirdOption or possibly both]]), needs to only call his name a few times. |
| 422 | * TricksterMentor: As befitting a fox. When Elena is too busy to listen to him, he lets things fall apart before swooping in to ask how things are going. And even then the advice is little more than asking her to question why the Noblins took the ships, leaving her to sort the problem out for herself. |

| 433 | * TheBabyOfTheBunch: Flo is less than a year old, which makes her the youngest of the cast. |
| 434 | * BewareTheSillyOnes: In "Spirit of a Wizard", [[spoiler:she manages to take down a tamborita-armed Ash all on her own, deprive her of her weapon, and render her a mess by repeatedly jumping on her.]] |
| 435 | * BrutalHonesty: She indulges in this, particularly regarding Armando's [[DreadfulMusician terrible singing voice]]. |
| 436 | * GenkiGirl: She is full of energy and enthusiasm. |
| 437 | * HappilyAdopted: It becomes clear that she's now a part of Elena's family. |
| 438 | * InnocentlyInsensitive: She certainly doesn't mean it, but she does tend to say some things that inadvertently push Elena's buttons, like bringing up [[spoiler:Esteban and his treachery.]] |
| 439 | * MeaningfulName: After Elena recognizes her as Isa's float model, Flo decides that that'd be too long of a name and settles on being called "Flo". |

| 444 | * UndyingLoyalty: To Elena. Without a second thought, she willingly jumped in after her when Ash pulled her into the portal to the dark side of the Spirit World. |
