Original Tribes
Lions
The closest thing to leaders for the animal tribes. The first to drink from the CHI pool and be evolved by it, they built their Lion Temple around the Sacred Pool and took it upon themselves to ensure a balanced distribution of CHI to all the animal tribes.
Tropes associated with the Lions
- Anime Hair: Their manes are spiky and sleeked back.
- King of Beasts: As they were the first known animals to taste the CHI water, they took on the responsibility of governing Chima, and of distributing the CHI.
- Panthera Awesome: They're all lions and fighters.
Laval
- Voiced by: Scott Shantz
- Badass Biker: He's a pretty accomplished Speedor rider.
- Beleaguered Boss: Temporarily, when Lagravis is captured and Laval has to take charge of the Lion Tribe in his place.
- Cool Bike: His various Speedors, to the point that he went to significant lengths to get it back after the Ravens tried to steal it.
- Cool Sword: Laval's most common weapon is his Valious, which takes on different forms throughout the series.
- Disney Death:
- Apparently dies in the first episode, only to return with the Lion Legend Beast.
- He fakes his death in the season one finale and returns with the Crocodile Legend Beast.
- Drives Like Crazy: While an excellent Speedor rider, he's not at all good at driving the Royal Fighter then first time he uses it.
- Fiery Red Head: He's quick to act and has a dark red mane. Becomes a literal example of this after gaining Fire CHI.
- Heel Realization:
- In episode 9, he truly understands the weight his prior actions have contributed to Chima's recent instability when he finds himself in a situation as desperate as Cragger's in episode 1.
- This happens again near the end of the series, when Laval realizes that he's personally responsible for kicking off everything bad that happened in the latter half of the series, specifically releasing the villains who would then antagonize everyone else in that half of the series.
- Heroes Prefer Swords: His primary weapon is his Valious sword.
- Honor Before Reason: Despite his father and the Elder Council knowing that Laval had very good reasons to steal an orb of Golden CHI, Laval insists on exile for breaking one of the rules of his tribe.
- Missing Mom: His mother is never seen or mentioned.
- Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: He has a tendency to do this, particularly since he inadvertently creates the villains of the second and third seasons.
- If he didn't drop the Crocodile CHI into the Gorge of Eternal Depth, the Dark Tribes would never have been created.
- Later, he gives an orb to Scorm, who ends up throwing it down a chasm and awakening the Ice Hunters.
- Official Couple: With Li'ella.
- Pen-Pushing President: Used as a gag during Laval's Beleaguered Boss stint.
- Super Drowning Skills: Until the penultimate episode of season 2, where he finally learned how to swim.
- We Used to Be Friends: Was this with Cragger until Episode 14, where Crooler runs out of Persuader Plants, allowing Cragger to go back to being good again, then Episode 16 had the Fog of Destiny completely corrupt Cragger until Episode 20. Afterwards, they become friends again.
Lagravis
- Voiced by: Bill Courage
- Catchphrase: "Use it [CHI] well; use it wisely."
- The Good King: He keeps order in Chima and makes sure all tribes get their CHI.
- Honor Before Reason: Insists that CHI must be distributed evenly and fairly, even to hostile tribes. Justified in that the environment gets a little... uppity if said CHI isn't distributed thus. It's subverted later on with Laval's exile. He knows that Laval had a good reason to steal the Golden CHI orb (it was the only way to get his friends away from the Fog of Destiny), and was willing to bend the rules for him, and manages to convince him to temporarily get out of his exile to fend off the Crocs.
- Mr. Exposition: In the first few episodes, he provides plenty of exposition regarding the world of Chima.
- No Sense of Humor: He spends the subplot of an episode trying to understand humor upon coming to the realization that he's never laughed before. He ends up mistaking news from Laval as a joke and finally laughs.
- Reasonable Authority Figure: He's very supportive of his son's attempts to protect Chima.
Lennox
- Voiced by: David Attar
- Advertised Extra: Despite appearing in many LEGO sets, he only makes a few scattered cameos throughout the show and rarely has any spoken lines.
Longtooth
- Voiced by: Bill Courage
- Blood Knight: When relegated to defrosting Crug after the Ice Hunters freeze the Crocodile Tribe in a block of ice, Longtooth says that he'd much rather be getting hurt in battle than doing this.
- Did I Just Say That Out Loud?: When Lagravis cautions Laval not to be rash, Longtooth remarks, "Good luck with that." He realizes moments later that that was a bad idea.
- Good Scars, Evil Scars: Longtooth had scars on his chest and left eye from previous battles.
- Meaningful Name: If someone is "long in the tooth", they are rather old. Longtooth is one of the Lion Tribe's older members and is stated to have age-related back problems. He also has long upper fangs.
- Number Two: Later in the series, he starts assuming a second-in-command role to Lagravis.
Leonidas
- Voiced by: Jeff Evans Todd
- The Ditz: Leonidas is unable to keep more that two ideas in his head at once without getting confused, to the point that his biography on the official website says he can't walk and chew bubblegum at the same time. If only told to do one thing, however, he will do that one thing to the best of his ability.
Lavertus
- Voiced by: Bill Courage
- Animal Eyes: Averted; He is the only Lion who has round pupils. All the other Lions have slit pupils.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: Crominus used a Persuader Plant to get him to steal CHI so he'd be exiled.
- Cloudcuckoolander: It's very clear that he's very... unstable. Though it could be a guise.
- Disney Death: He is presumed dead after season two but returns alive and well in the following season.
- Expy: His color scheme and overall stance in the storyline are eerily similar to Scar, while his quirky personality and association with technology make him very similar to Varrick.
- Heroic Sacrifice: Sacrifices himself to defeat the Dark Tribes at the end of season 2. The following season reveals that he survived.
- Honor Before Reason: He didn't reveal that Crominus tricked him because if he had, the tribes would have gone to war, with his love Crunket being caught up in it.
- The Reveal: He's ShadoWind.
- Verbal Tic: Every time he talks about something someone did or will do, expect him to say "Or, did/will I/you?"
Li'ella
- Voiced by: Meghan Kinsley
- Happily Adopted: She was orphaned at a young age and adopted by Tormak.
- Last of His Kind: Believed herself to be this until meeting Laval.
- Official Couple: Is planned to be in this with Laval.
- The Smurfette Principle: She is the only female Lion in the entire show. In the toyline, there is at least one other currently unnamed lioness.
Crocodiles
Living in the swamp, they are the Lions' greatest rivals. The tension between the two tribes escalates into open war after Cragger takes a CHI sample before he's ready.
Cragger
- Voiced by: David Attar
- The Atoner: After Crooler runs out of Persuader Plants, and again when being freed from the Fog of Destiny.
- Badass Biker: When he's on his Speedor.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: Whenever Crooler waves her special flowers under his nose and when the Fog of Destiny hit him.
- Cool Helmet: He wore a golden helmet which obscured his face after being crowned King of the Crocodiles (which his father also wore before him).
- Cool Sword: His most iconic weapon is his double-bladed sword which brings Darth Maul to mind, though he changes his arsenal up more after his return to the side of good.
- The Corruptible: Suffered from Crooler's Persuader Plants so much that it's likely the reason why The Fog of Destiny almost left him permanently evil..
- Good Scars, Evil Scars: Cragger has a scar on his left eye and it's unknown how he got it.
- Handicapped Badass: He is blind in one eye if what we've seen of his eyes is true, and seems to have adjusted well enough to be a capable swordsman.
- My God, What Have I Done?: In episode 20, when he turns permanently good and thinks he killed Laval.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Whenever he gets hit with the Persuader Plant spores. Exaggerated as the Fog of Destiny affects Cragger.
Crooler
- Voiced by: Bethany Brown
- Aborted Arc: Her still wanting to rule Chima after season 1 never really gets to go anywhere thanks to new antagonists being the focus of the next two seasons.
- Big Bad Wannabe: Crooler is clearly manipulating Cragger to take over Chima for her, but he eventually catches on and locks her up with the intent of taking over Chima for himself.
- Did Not Think This Through: She never considers the long-term consequences of her actions (specifically, how her callousness alienates all those around her, to the point where no one trusts her).
- Dirty Coward: During one of the Ice Hunters' attacks, she used Plovar as a Human Shield.
- Even Evil Has Standards:
- In the second episode, she is as awed and humbled by the Lion Legend Beast as everyone else.
- In "Foxtrotters," she shows some regret at betraying Cragger, and at throwing the Pledge of the Pack (part of her father's legacy) down the Gorge of Eternal Depth.
- She shows some trepidation over seeing Reegul. She was actually on the verge of leaving until he saw her.
- Freudian Excuse: Despite being the first born, she was neglected by her parents in favor of Cragger, who was thought to have died while he was an egg. She tried to help Cragger, but ended up making things worse, resulting in her feeling unwanted, and waiting for an opportunity to take control of the Tribe.
- Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse: Lagravis shows no sympathy upon hearing her explain that her desire for power was born out of being ignored by her parents in favor of Cragger, even though she hatched first. He points out she's really just trying to control him and says he thinks Crooler is just as bad as Cragger has become.
- Heel–Face Turn: After season one, Crooler began to work together with everyone, though it's mostly out of necessity rather than choice. However, the final moments of the show have her happily let Plovar clean her teeth, suggesting a change of heart.
- Hoist by Her Own Petard: After successfully infecting Cragger with the Fog of Destiny in an attempt to control him again, she is locked away by Cragger for good after he is corrupted. This trope became a Running Gag for Crooler in season two; every attempt she makes at trying to convince others to help her personal gain ends up failing in humiliating ways.
- Out of Focus: She only makes four appearances in the third season.
- Manipulative Bitch: Only when she has the Persuader Plants. When they run out, she's unable to get anyone to listen to her.
- The Man Behind the Man: She seems content to wield power by proxy through her brother.
- Meaningful Name: She's crueller than the other Crocodiles.
- Never My Fault:
- She blames Cragger for all her plans failing (which, considering she used Persuader Plants to make him think they were his, might have been the point.)
- Even after driving Cragger mad with the Fog of Destiny, she refuses to take responsibility for her actions.
- The Resenter: She resents both her parents and Cragger for denying her what she feels is her rightful place as heir to the Crocodiles.
- The Smurfette Principle: Like Eris, this applies more in relation to her tribe than to the overall show.
- The Sociopath: One of her plans involved bringing down the Eagle Spires in the middle of a battle, which would have killed Eagles, Lions and Wolves alike, with her showing no remorse. In fact, she doesn't care who gets hurt as long as she gets her way.
- The Starscream: She tried to make a deal with some captured Spiders in season two, wanting to rule Chima with them. Fortunately, they completely ignored her.
- The Unfavorite: She sees herself as this to her parents (which, considering that what Crominus thought would be his last words to Cragger were "Don't listen to your sister," may not be too far off the mark).
- Villain Decay: As noted above, her Manipulative Bitch aspect completely tanks in season two. In season three, she doesn't actually do anything really villainous at all, instead just being snarky and insulting.
- "Well Done, Daughter!" Gal: She felt neglected by her parents and wanted an opportunity to take control of the tribe.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: Sometimes has this mindset; When she exposed Cragger to the Fog of Destiny, she claimed it was so she could "save Chima" from the peace treaty he was about to sign.
Crominus
- Voiced by: Bill Courage
- Green-Eyed Monster: Was jealous of Lavertus' relationship Crunket and used the Persuader Plants to get him banished. Years later, he regrets it.
- Gold Tooth of Wealth: Crominus is the crocodile king and has a mouth filled with golden teeth.
- Love Makes You Crazy: He got Lavertus exiled because he was on the losing end of a love triangle for Crunket.
- My God, What Have I Done?: Years later, he feels this way about what he did to Lavertus.
- Non-Mammalian Hair: Downplayed; Crominus has a small beard on his chin and bushy eyebrows, but is mostly scaly.
Crawley
- Voiced by: Jeff Evans Todd
- Bumbling Henchmen Duo: Forms one with Crug.
- Co-Dragons: He and Crug are Cragger’s most reliable henchmen.
Crug
- Voiced by: John Nelson
- Artificial Limbs: His lower jaw is made out of metal.
- Bumbling Henchmen Duo: Forms one with Crawley.
- Co-Dragons: He and Crawley are Cragger’s most reliable henchmen.
- Dumb Muscle: An online short has him think that he can learn to fly by jumping out of a plane, but he survives the fall anyway.
Crunket
- Voiced by: Meghan Kinsley
- Bearer of Bad News: Told the tribes about the three new villains and explains how those tribes were created due to CHI falling from the skies.
- Pink Is Feminine: Just like her daughter Crooler, she is a Crocodile wearing mostly pink.
- Reasonable Authority Figure: She's certainly a more pragmatic and moral leader than her daughter Crooler, dismissing Crooler's plans of backstabbing the lions due to practical and reasonable concerns.
- Toyless Toyline Character: Despite having a somewhat important role, she has never had an official minfigure.
Eagles
A tribe of Chima that lives on top of Eagle Spire. They are the most scholarly tribe in all of Chima, and have a vast library where they spend much of their time reading.
Tropes associated with the Eagles
- Book Worm: They love reading books, so much so that someone finishing their favorite book is seen as a greater reason to panic than an earthquake occurring.
- Noble Bird of Prey: They are heroic animals allied with the Lions and Gorillas.
Eris
- Voiced by: Bethany Brown
- Ace Pilot: Has shown traits of this while flying the Eagle Jet.
- Action Girl: In the first season, she's easily the most prominent female fighter.
- A Day in the Limelight: She more or less becomes the protagonist during the third season.
- Epic Flail: One of the weapons she is shown using.
- Green-Eyed Monster: She acted like this regarding Rinona (before learning she was Rogon's sister).
- Love Triangle: With Rogon and Rinona until it was revealed Rinona is Rogon's sister.
- Nice Girl: She's always very friendly to those around her.
- No Sense of Direction: Only when traveling by land, since she usually flies everywhere and has difficulty adjusting to the different view.
- Opposites Attract: Part of the reason she likes Rogon is because he's "so simple."
- Smurfette Principle: Like Crooler, this applies more in relation to her tribe than to the overall show. Averted in the video games which introduced two other female Eagles.
Eglor
- Voiced by: Michael Patric
- Absent-Minded Professor: He can make any weapon, but never has the time to use them.
- High-Class Glass: Wears a red monocle.
- Mr. Exposition: He informs the Lions on the Hundred Year Moon and what it will do to the wolves.
- The Smart Guy: Assumes this role for his tribe.
Ewald
- Voiced by: Jeff Evans Todd
- Speech Impediment: He speaks with a noticeable lisp.
- Skewed Priorities: At times, he considers reading/writing a book more important than what's going on around him.
- Throw the Book at Them: He and his friend Elon use extra heavy books to drop on some wolves during their attack on Eagle Spire.
Equila
- Voiced by: Jeff Evans Todd
- Cuckoolander Commentator: For the Speedor races.
- Dude Looks Like a Lady: For some reason, he is designed with eyelashes on his character model in the tv show, which is a detail only female LEGO characters have.
- Incoming Ham: His first line of dialogue is "HELLLLOOO CHIMA!!!"
- Large-Ham Announcer: He is pretty over-the-top when announcing the Speedor Races.
- Motor Mouth: Having to announce everything that goes on in a high-paced Speedor race requires one to say a lot of things really fast.
Ewar
- The Cameo: His brief appearances in the show can be counted on one hand.
- Reused Character Design: His design mostly resembles Equila, but without the glasses.
Eggbert
- All There in the Manual: An extreme variant. His name is only ever revealed on leaked concept art, which implies he would have gotten a mini figure.
- High-Class Glass: He can be distinguished by his unusual monocle piece.
- Living Prop: He only ever appears in crowd shots.
Gorillas
Nature-loving hippie-types.
Tropes associated with the Gorillas
- Beware the Nice Ones: The friendliest, least-violent tribe in all of Chima, but don't cut down their sacred tree when they're on the verge of enlightenment.
- Friend to All Living Things: They diverted traffic on a road just to prevent a flower being stepped on.
- Humongous Mecha: Their vehicles are giant robot gorillas.
Gorzan
- Voiced by: Michael Patric
- Catchphrase: "Dude...." Hell, for gorillas, "dude" has more than one meaning.
- Green Thumb: Loves and knows how to care for flowers.
- True Companions: Is this to Laval and Eris.
- Abnormal Ammo: His Banana Blaster from the second season. His Gorilla Striker seems to use them for its massive cannon.
Grumlo
- Voiced by: Jesse Inocalla
- Cool Old Guy: The elder of the tribe, yet just as laid back and easy-going as the rest.
G'Loona
- Voiced by: Meghan Kinsley
- The Baby of the Bunch: She is a very young member of the gorilla tribe.
- Damsel in Distress: Kidnapped by Crooler during the hundred year moon.
- Youthful Freckles: She has some across her face.
Wolves
Pack-types, interested in taking what they want, preferably by force. Sworn allies to the Crocodiles after Crominus helped them overcome their internecine fighting until Crooler made a deal to free them from their oath in exchange for helping her behind Cragger's back.
Tropes associated with the Wolves
- Heel–Face Turn: They spend a big portion of Season 1 as primary villains, but are allies by the end. To further emphasize it, Worriz confirms that there are no hard feelings at the start of the second season.
- Savage Wolves: They're generally presented as this in their more antagonistic moments.
- Wolves Always Howl at the Moon: And every hundred years it drives them crazy.
Worriz
- Voiced by: Scott Shantz
- All Love Is Unrequited: He has a crush on Windra, who does not reciprocate his feelings (at first).
- Asshole Victim: Since he's a Jerkass, pretty much everyone outside of his tribe gloats whenever he suffers a humiliating defeat.
- Facial Markings: Has black scar-like markings going down his eyes.
- Flat-Earth Atheist: Refused to believe in the existance of Legend Beasts until he saw one.
- The Face: Why he's the Wolf most likely to be in the foreground.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: What he grows into. While surly and a loner, he can always be counted on to defend Chima.
- Not So Stoic: He briefly shows concern for Windra when her copter crashes at the end of "The CHI Jackers".
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He's clearly in love with her if the short Wolf Speed Dating is anything to go by.
- Plus, him trying to calm her down during Episode 7 and the fact that he acted Tsundere towards her when he though that she had died from Episode 12's copter crash confirms it.
- The Friend Nobody Likes: He used to hang out with the other young representatives of Chima's tribes before they went to war and is an ally in Season 2. However, he's a bad influence at best and a villain at worst, so it's not surprising that he isn't treated with respect. The first time we see him on screen, Skinnet farts on him while playing hide-and-seek with the group.
- Token Evil Teammate: He's this to the other young representatives of Chima's tribes before they went to war and as an ally in Season 2. Cragger was being manipulated and Razar is just greedy. Worriz however is shamelessly mean.
- Took a Level in Kindness: By the second season, he's mellowed out.
Winzar
- Voiced by: Jeff Evans Todd
- Good Scars, Evil Scars: Has three scars over his left eye.
- The Unsmile: When he tries smiling at some beavers, all it does is frighten them.
Wakz
- Voiced by: John Nelson
- Animal Facial Hair: He has long fur growing on his snout resembling a scraggly beard.
- Older Than They Look: The Wolf Tribe's elder.
Windra
- Voiced by: Meghan Kinsley
- Ace Pilot: She pilots the Wolves' only helicopter. Even when seized by madness during a Hundred Year Moon, she's still able to fly it.
- Gadgeteer Genius: According to the character encylocpedia, she's the one who invented the Wolf tribe's helicopter.
- Green-Eyed Monster: She doesn't take Crooler trying to manipulate Worriz well.
- Pale Females, Dark Males: She is the only female Wolf with white fur. All the males have varying shades of grey fur.
- The Voiceless: She only ever snarls.
Wilhurt
- Voiced by: Matt Cronander
- Blood Knight: He prefers fighting to solve disputes.
- Dark Is Evil: A savage Wolf with dark black fur.
- Number Two: He is mostly seen by Worriz’s side.
- Punny Name: He "will hurt" you more eagerly than the other Wolves.
Wonald
- Voiced by: Bethany Brown
- Cheerful Child: It's hard to believe that such an upbeat kid is part of an antagonistic wolf pack.
- Cute Little Fangs: He is a young Wolf who has short fangs sticking out his mouth.
- Early Installment Character-Design Difference: Wonald’s first appearance was actually in a book titled LEGO Legends of Chima: Beware of the Wolves, a book made up of short stories related to the Wolves of Chima. In one of the stories, Wonald is the main character, but looks different from his tv show counterpart by having lighter fur and a gray outfit instead of dark gray fur and a red outfit.
- Token Good Teammate: Wonald is this to the Wolf tribe, in that he mainly eats fruit and doesn't seem very interested in attacking the other tribes. Even during the Bad Moon Rising event, he mainly just eats more fruit than normal, not really attacking anyone else. There was one episode where he attacked Eris (to no effect), but that was just because he thought the Eagles stole the Mother Tooth.
- Vegetarian Carnivore: He is the only wolf to eat fruit over meat. This comes in handy during the Bad Moon Rising event where he is the only wolf not attacking anyone and instead just eats more fruit than usual.
Ravens
Mercenaries, usually hired by the Crocodiles or Wolves to bolster their forces.
Tropes associated with the Ravens
- Artificial Limbs: Most Ravens sport at least one (with Razal and Rawzom being the exception).
- Con Man: One of their common business practices is to steal stuff and then resell it to the original owner.
- Creepy Crows: They're presented in this manner, being willing to replace parts of their bodies if needed.
- Only in It for the Money: The Ravens' loyalties are usually decided by whoever will pay them more "trinkets and treasures". They'll even fight for both sides in a conflict.
- Yellow Eyes of Sneakiness: The Ravens are opportunistic thieves with yellow eyes.
Razar
- Voiced by: Jeff Evans Todd
- Affably Evil: He may be corrupt and seeking money, but he acts pretty friendly and isn't interested in taking control of Chima.
- Catchphrase: "Holy Rizzoli!"
- Everyone Has Standards: He balked at the idea of bringing down the Eagle Spires with the Eagles, Lions and Wolves on them... if only because it would mean losing lots of valuable customers.
- Hook Hand: His left hand has been replaced by a hook.
- Innocently Insensitive: In "The Eagle And the Bear", he states the obvious consequences of unbalancing the Bear Beast and the Eagle Beast's eggs, which distresses Eris to no end. He is completely oblivious about this.
- Nominal Hero: When he aids the heroes, such as in the season 2 story arc, as he's pretty much always doing so out of his own selfish reasons.
- Second Episode Introduction: He is the only main character representing the eight main tribes of Chima to not be introduced in the first episode. Instead he shows up in the second episode.
- Verbal Tic: Tends to end his sentences with "Yes?"
Razcal
- Voiced by: Scott Shantz
- Good with Numbers: His bio states that he acts as the Ravens' accountant, quantifying the value of their ill-gotten gains so the tribe knows exactly how good they are at being thieves. In the show, he's often seen carrying around an abacus to tally up expenses for other ravens.
- Number Two: Is often seen at Razar’s side.
Rawzom
- Authority in Name Only: Since he is not even the official king, he does far less than Razar when it comes to leading his tribe. Sometimes he is even seen following Razar around.
- The Leader: Unofficial "king" of the tribe.
- The Quiet One: His bio states he is not much of a talker, which carries into the show where he has only spoken once.
Rizzo
- An Arm and a Leg: Rizzo has a peg leg.
- Why Didit Have To Be Snakes: Is afraid of the Beaver tribe, as seen in the online short "Good Fixers".
- The Voiceless: He never gets the chance to speak in the show.
Ripnik
- Voiced by: David Attar
- Bad Liar: When Laval and Eris notice the Mother Tooth in his bag, he claims the bag is actually full of glowing groceries because of his unique diet.
- Lack of Empathy: He admitted that he wouldn’t care if the Lions, Eagles, and Wolves went down with the crumbling Eagle Spire.
- Phantom Thief: For the Ravens; He managed to steal the Wolf Tribe's Mother Tooth, then place it in the Eagle Spires.
Rhinos
- Blood Knight: It's a children's franchise, so there's not as much blood. But they do enjoy a good rumble. They apparently fight each other even when they’re happy.
- Dumb Muscle: All of them except for Rinona are dumber than a sack of bricks. Unless their Legend Beast is around, in which case they become geniuses.
- Super-Intelligence: The males become geniuses when they come in range to their Legend Beast compared to their usual Dumb Muscle. Unfortunately, Rinona, who is of average intelligence already, doesn't get the boost.
Rogon
- Voiced by: David Attar
- Big Damn Hero: Pulls this off quite nicely as he not only saves his Legend Beast but also Eris from the Spider tribe.
- Kind Hearted Simpleton: He may not be particularly bright, but he can prove himself a good friend.
- Love Triangle: Possibly with Eris and Rinona until it was revealed that the latter was his sister.
- Pointless Band-Aid: He has one over a small crack on his horn. Like a little band-aid will do much...
- Power of Love: If you hurt Eris, he hurts you.
- Taking the Bullet: He actually takes a huge energy blast in the back to protect Eris. He ends up surviving though.
Runk
- Voiced by: Jesse Inocalla
- Older Than He Looks: Runk is a member of the elder council.
Rukus
- Voiced by: John Nelson
- The Brute: The brawler of the tribe.
Rinona
- Voiced by: Bethany Brown
- Ace Pilot: She can drive very well.
- Big Damn Hero: Two instances occur where the heroes are saved from the man-eating plants by Rogon's tank, but he isn't driving and just believes it to be his pet rock. When Rogon gets his intelligence boost from the Rhino Legend Beast and discovers Rinona as a stowaway, she is allowed to stay because she points out that she saved them those two times.
- Love Triangle: Subverted; while it initially appears she's competing with Eris for Rogon's affection, she's actually Rogon's older sister.
- Pink Is Feminine: She has pink markings on her face.
- Remember the New Guy?: She doesn't show up until season 2 and it is treated as if she was always a part of the Rhino tribe.
- The Smurfette Principle: She's the only shown female Rhino.
- Women Are Wiser: She's the only rhino who isn't Dumb Muscle, and their only female.
Bears
- Bee-Bee Gun: A variant; their Speedorz launch hives that cover their opponents in honey, which attracts bees.
- Beware the Nice Ones: They're generally very mild-mannered and passive, but when they battle the Ice Bears, they prove to be significantly capable fighters.
- Lazy Bum: They are ridiculously lazy. Even when they are forced to fight or stay awake, they can always be seen nodding off. That is until the finale however.
- Let's Get Dangerous!: When the Ice Bears wake up, they quickly prove that they can be dangerous.
- The Load: Due to their tendency to fall asleep at the drop of a hat, they're not very reliable in combat.
- Sleepyhead: The Bears are almost always asleep. This is because they all have Dream Walker abilities, which allows them to communicate and think even when asleep.
- This Means Warpaint: Under his helmet, Bladvic has honey smeared on his face that's evocative of war stripes.
Beavers
- Busy Beaver: Exaggerated; they love working and fixing so much that they hate taking vacations.
- Catchphrase: "Fix it, fix it, fix it!"
- The Engineer: This is their hat; they can fix anything.
- Law of Chromatic Superiority: Their leader, Bezar, has white fur, compared to the rest of the Tribe's brown fur.
- Non-Action Guy: None of them are very good at fighting.
- Toyless Toyline Character: Despite appearing since the first season, Breezor is the only one to get a minifigure released. The fact that his head is a recolor of a yeti head piece (you can still see the molded frown and fangs that Breezor's tooth is printed under) that doesn't match the show design suggests that the Beavers were never intended to get toys.
- Workaholic: To the point that they consider vacations to be punishment. The only thing that ever threatens their aforementioned mechanical prowess is if too many of them fight over who gets to fix something.
Dark Tribes
Spiders
One of the Dark Tribes.
- Extra Eyes: They have three eyes on their brows. These eyes lack pupils so their main set can be focused on more.
- Multi-Armed and Dangerous: With few exceptions, all of them have eight legs. Spinlyn only has six, as her arms are intended to mimic pedipalps.
- Projectile Webbing: They can sometimes shoot webs out of their arms. They mostly rely on their weapons and machines to shoot out larger quantities of webs though.
- Spiders Are Scary: They're presented in an antagonistic light, using their webs to block the flow of CHI.
Spinlyn
- Voiced by: Bethany Brown
- The Fighting Narcissist: Incredibly vain, but willing to fight if she needs to.
- God Save Us from the Queen!: She's mostly concerned about her beauty, and was chosen as queen because the spiders consider her beautiful.
- Mirror-Cracking Ugly: In her first appearance no less.
- Our Centaurs Are Different: She appears to be the only one in her tribe to have a spider lower body among a bunch of bipedal spiders.
- Seductive Spider: She thinks she's this, and is considered beautiful to spiders. By human standards, however, she's Mirror-Cracking Ugly.
- Spider People: Yes. She's got a rare case of a spider's lower body, and the anthropomorphic upper body of a typical LEGO minifigure.
- World's Most Beautiful Woman: She became queen because the spiders consider her to be this. To everyone else, she's hideous.
Scorpions
One of the Dark Tribes.
- Brainwashed: Not them, but anyone they sting with their venom.
- Our Centaurs Are Different: They have a few mixed in, but unlike Spinlyn they aren't in charge of the tribe.
- Scary Scorpions: They're presented as significantly nightmarish, given their venom.
Scorm
- Voiced by: Michael Patric
- Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: He was utterly confused by Laval actually giving him some CHI after the Dark Tribes' defeat, eventually coming to the conclusion that Laval only did it to mock him.
- Evil Wears Black: Has this and gold coloration.
- History Repeats: After Laval gives him a orb of CHI, he's so thrown off by the gesture that, blaming CHI for all the problems the Dark Tribes, swears off using it forever and throws the orb down a chasm like Laval did with the CHI that created the Dark Tribes, and awakens the Ice Hunters.
- Law of Chromatic Superiority: Scorm is the only gold scorpion in his tribe. The rest of them are colored grey.
- Never My Fault: After his defeat, he decides CHI is the cause of all of his pain and decided to chuck it down a hole, even though his own men point out they could just use it to break out of the cave. Once unfrozen, he blames Laval for giving him the CHI he was meant to use to get out of the cave.
- Ungrateful Bastard: The CHI incident above not withstanding, after he and the rest of the Dark Tribes are freed from the Ice Hunters' ice, he immediately leads them in attacking the heroes again.
- Unwitting Instigator of Doom: By dropping the CHI into the gorge, he allows the Ice Hunters below to reawaken and continue their conquest of Chima.
Bats
One of the Dark Tribes.
- All There in the Manual: Braptor and Blista are only named in the toyline and are not identified by any names in the show. Braptor at least makes a noticeable appearance trying to break up a squabble between Scorm and Spinlyn in the show, but Blista is rarely seen amongst the crowd of bat soldiers.
- Bat Out of Hell: They're the most visually threatening of the tribe in groups; their masses look like massive black clouds engulfing an area.
- Dumb Muscle: They aren't very smart. Even their leader, Braptor, said to be the most intelligent of all Bats isn't particularly bright.
- The Speechless: The Bat Tribe is never shown speaking; at most, they make hissing sounds.
Ice Hunters
Sabre-Tooth Tigers
Sir Fangar
- Voiced by: Chris Durchand
- An Ice Person: He was frozen in ice, two of his limbs have been replaced by ice, and he wields freezing powers.
- A Pupil of Mine Until He Turned to Evil: Was once Fluminox's student, but his growing knowledge led to wanting to conquer Chima.
- Big Bad: As the leader of the Ice Hunters, he's the main antagonist of the final series.
- Catchphrase: "FEEL. OUR. FREEZE!!!!!!"
- Cool Sword: His sword, Glacior, was made from the tooth of a Sabre-Tooth, hinted to be a Sabre-Tooth Legend Beast.
- Villainous Crush: On Li'ella. He even tries to marry her at one point.
Strainor
- Voiced by: Chris Durchand

Mammoths
Maula
- Voiced by: Meghan Kinsley
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: She loves her children, but mostly Mungus.
- My Beloved Smother: Loves her children (particularly Mungus) to the point of making them extremely uncomfortable.
- Parental Favoritism: She clearly favors Mungus over Mottrot, to the point where she requests for Mottrot give up his CHI to help revive Mungus (some more CHI gets dropped into their hole, though).
Mottrot
- The Chew Toy: Almost all of his appearances have him get beat up to Maula's dissapointment.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Despite his frustration at his mother favoring Mungus over him, he still clearly cares for him. In one instance where Mungus gets his foot stuck, he agrees to have the Mammoths retreat if Laval and Cragger help free him.
- Manchild: Less so than his brother, but he still chooses to live with his mother.
- Sibling Rivalry: A one-sided example. Mattrot is annoyed by Mungus being favored and wants to surpass him, even if he is completely unaware of this. Despite this, Mattrot still cares for Mungus.
- The Un-Favourite: Maula clearly prefers Mottrot's brother, Mungus, over him.
- "Well Done, Son" Guy: Maula's Parental Favoritism annoys him greatly.
Mungus
- Affably Evil: He's unaware of Mottrot's jealousy and acts very kind to him.
- Big Little Brother: Mungus is Mottrot’s younger brother.
- Brutish Character, Brutish Weapon: Mungus uses a large club as his weapon of choice. It is simple to use, but hits very hard.
- Catchphrase: "Mungus make the hurting!"
- Dumb Muscle: The most physically powerful member of the Ice Tribes, but also the dumbest (with the possible exception of Sykor).
- Hidden Depths: The online short "Mammoth Downtime" shows for as much of a Dumb Muscle as Mungus is, he excels at juggling and sculpting.
- Hulk Speak: He speaks in very broken English most of the time, such as when he shouts "Mungus make the hurting!"
- Manchild: His relationship with his mother certainly doesn't suggests maturity.
- Meaningful Name: He's the largest of the Mammoths.
- Non-Standard Character Design: He has a larger, far more rounded body than the other characters, and even has visible fingers and toes.
- Small Parent, Huge Child: Maula and Mottrot are the same size as most of the other inhabitants of Chima, while Mungus is bigger than both of them.
- Vocal Dissonance: He has a very high-pitched and squeaky voice for a large muscular mammoth warrior.
Vultures
Vardy
- Voiced by: Scott Shantz
- French Jerk: He has a slight French accent and is one of Sir Fangar’s followers.
- We Wait: Vardy’s greatest strength is his patience.

- Voiced by: Michael Patric
- Affably Evil: He is always in a good mood.
- Cynic–Idealist Duo: The Idealist to Vornon’s Cynic.

Vornon

- Toyline-Exclusive Character: She does not appear in the show and is only a apart of a single set.
Fourth Ice Tribe (SPOILERS)
Ice Bears
The fourth Ice Tribe, initially left frozen until the final battle because of how dangerous they are.- The Berserker: The reason they weren't initially revived; they're completely berserk and out of control.
- Blood Knight: Sir Fangar states that they love a good fight.
- Evil Counterpart: To the Bears. While the regular Bears are hardly ever awake and pretty relaxed even when conscious, the Ice Bears are only woken up as a last resort because they're all berserkers.
- Godzilla Threshold: Sir Fangar leaves them frozen until the final battle.
- The Speechless: None of the Ice Bears have any spoken lines. It is possible they are too savage and brute-minded to even speak.
- Walking Spoiler: Their existence isn't even hinted at initially.
- The Worf Effect: They do some major damage to the main tribes during their attack, but when the Bears (who had been riled up by their awakening), join the fight, they're easily smacked around by their non-ice counterparts.
Fire Tribes
Phoenix
Fluminox
- Voiced by: Jesse Inocalla
- Fantastic Racism: Initially held some disdain for the "ground-born" species of Chima. When Laval, Cragger, and Eris first meet him, Fluminox immediately allows Eris to get Fire CHI, but forces Laval and Cragger to further prove themselves worthy.
- Mr. Exposition: Provides the story before the Great Story to Laval, Eris, and Cragger.
- My Greatest Failure: He was meant to be part of the first Great Illumination, but denied his duty in order to raise his son, Flinx. This led to the Illumination going wrong. Subverted, however, in that Fluminox sees raising Flinx as Worth It.
- No Sense of Humor: He is serious all the time.
- Papa Wolf: Don't hurt his son. He didn't participate in the first Great Illumination because he wanted to make sure someone would raise Flinx.
- Staff of Authority: He holds a golden staff in most of his scenes.
Flinx
- Voiced by: John Nelson
- Adorably Precocious Child: Despite his age, he acts as a voice of reason, sometimes even more responsible than his father.
- The Chosen One: He became the ninth and final component in the new Illumination.
- Really 700 Years Old: He is the youngest Phoenix of his tribe, even though he is still a thousand years old.
Foltrax
- The Captain: Of the Phoenix Tribe's airship, the Blazing Bastion.
- Catchphrase: "It's blazing time!"
- Drives Like Crazy: Fluminox really doesn't approve of how he pilots the Blazing Bastion.
Frax and Firox
- The Dividual: They both act as excitable co-pilots to the Blazing Bastion.
- Those Two Guys: They do share the same entry here...
- Vibrant Orange: Unlike Fluminox, Foltrax, and Flinx, they have orange feathers.
Tigers
Tormak
- Ash Face: His entire body gets scorched black, turning him into the panther from Eris' vision.
- Papa Wolf: He's willing to do anything to protect Li'Ella. Even hand over the temple's map to Sir Fangar (not that it works).
- Tunnel King: The last survivor of the "Tunnel Cats."
Trakkar
- Meaningful Name: He's a good tracker.
Other Characters
Other Characters (anyone who's the only member of their species)
Furty (AKA Furtivo)
- Voiced by: Scott Shantz
- Cunning Like a Fox: He's a fox who resorts to trickery.
- Divide and Conquer: The Wolves hire him to do this to the other tribes during a Speedor race.
- Drives Like Crazy: The main reason he doesn't use a speedor.
- Karma Houdini: He never suffers any retribution for all his trickery.
- Paper-Thin Disguise: He has a terrible ShadoWind disguise in Episode 13, with a shoddy helmet and his body paint leaves out several notable areas (his orange fox feet are visible among the black). Eris immediately notices that something is wrong, but Laval is none the wiser, even thinking that his terrible driving skills are meant as a diversion.
Skinnet
- Voiced by: Scott Shantz
- Apologizes a Lot: He always remembers to say "Sorry..." after unleashing a fart cloud.
- Gasshole: He's the source of numerous fart jokes throughout the entire show.
- Heroic Neutral: He does not take any sides in battles, but he normally sticks with the heroic tribes.
- Last of His Kind: His official bio on the Lego site states that the rest of the skunk tribe has "mysteriously vanished."
- Nice Guy: While most of the cast doesn't want him around, he's very friendly to everyone and always apologizes for his smell.
- Smelly Skunk: Except during the Hundred Year Moon and after the Great Illumination, when he actually smells good.
- Throw the Dog a Bone: when the Great Illumination restores Chima in the finale, his farts start to smell nice and make flowers bloom, which means now he can smell sweet all the time.
Dom De La Woosh
- Voiced by: Chris Durchand
- The Ace: In his past, he was the best speedor racer in Chima.
- Broken Ace: Is not pleased with himself after Episode 8's race due to having been hired by the Crocs.
- Broken Pedestal: After the above revelation, he becomes this to Eris. Subverted with Laval, whom he complimented on his skills.
- Cargo Ship: An In-Universe example. He seems to be in love with his own Speedor judging by how he once gave it flowers and kissed it.
- Proud Peacock: He's famous in-universe for being one of the greatest racers in Chima. Woosh loves soaking in the attention so much that in "The Biggest Race Ever," he agrees to act as a distraction so that Cragger can win the race.
- Third-Person Person: He constantly refers to himself as "The Woosh".
- Toyless Toyline Character: He never got an official minifigure.
ShadoWind
- Voiced by: Bill Courage
- Badass Armfold: He is the best speedor racer and often assumes a pose like this.
- Badass Biker: Even Laval looks up to him.
- Cool Mask: He wears a boar mask to his identity as Lavertus.
- Dark Is Not Evil: He is dressed in black, but is one of the good guys.
- Expy: Of Racer X from Speed Racer.
- Mysterious Protector: Subverted, given that he's Lavertus.
- Spoiler: A toy including a ShadoWind minifig has been released in early 2014, and he's a Lion.
- Suddenly Voiced: Throughout the first season, ShadoWind never said a word. Then in the season 1 finale, he says his first words: "For Chima!"
- The Voiceless: He never speaks in his appearances until the Season 1 finale.
Regull
- Voiced by: David Attar
- Epic Fail: The true purpose of his Regull Chigull was to make everyone who plugged it think they were birds, then use them to attack others. While the first part of his plan worked, the victims ignored any orders he tried to give them.
- Freudian Excuse: The reason he's evil? Due to his appearance, he was shunned by both Eagles and Ravens, and due to his mixed nature, his wings were of uneven sizes, preventing him from being able to fly.
- Mad Scientist: He created fake CHI orbs called "Regull Chigull", which make those who place it in their chests act like chickens after a while. Unfortunately, Cragger thinks that it's real synthetsized CHI and hands it out to all of the tribes.
- Nonhuman Humanoid Hybrid: He's half-Eagle and half-Raven. He’s currently the only known hybrid in the series.
- Toyless Toyline Character: He never got an official minifigure.
Plovar
- Voiced by: Jesse Inocalla
- Affectionate Nickname: He calls Cragger "Craggy-waggs" and Crooler "Crool-laloo."
- Brainwashed and Crazy: An online short has him arrive right when Crooler uses her Persuader Plant on Cragger and end up getting affected. Crooler angrily tells Plovar to go and ruin someone else's day as a way to shoo him, but he takes it as an order and flies around Chima destroying the vehicles of those who asked for some cleaning.
- Camp Straight: He acts very effeminate.
- Nonstandard Character Design: Even compared to the Legend Beasts, he's a much more traditionally-proportioned bird than the blocky designs of everyone else. LEGO Dimensions gave him a thicker and less organic design more in line with Lego's usual birds.
- Running Gag: He tends to show up at inopportune times to try and clean Cragger's teeth, resulting in Cragger constantly rescheduling.
- Token Good Teammate: During the Crocodiles' stint as villains, he contrasts from them by being very friendly to everyone no matter their tribe.
- Toyless Toyline Character: If his Nonstandard Character Design wasn't enough of an indicator.
Lundor
- Voiced by: Scott Shantz
- Badass Bookworm: He is a historian who remembers everything that happened.
- Last of His Kind: Though he believes there are others out there somewhere.
- Token Minority: In a clan made up of Phoenixes and Tigers, he is the only Leopard.
