* AscendedExtra: While Archimedes did have a decent-sized role in the book, he was nevertheless a secondary character who was mainly there to be a supporting player to Merlyn and occasionally to Wart. Here, he's one of the main characters and arguably goes through the most CharacterDevelopment of them all. He even stays with Wart when Merlin temporarily leaves, which he did not do in the book.

* JustEatHim: This seems to be her preferred tactic for [[NeverSayDie "destroying"]] those she comes across. She's a cat the entire time she's chasing bird!Arthur around her house and she tends to turn into animals when dueling Merlin, suited to hunting his choices (fox vs. rabbit, snake vs. mouse, etc.). She only moves away from this tactic after Merlin pisses her off.

* TragicHero: She was genuinely in love with Arthur to the point she risked her own life to save him from the wolf. Unfortunately all her actions has been vain since the squirrel she loved was a human and obviously her feelings for him were not returned.

* AdaptationalNonsapience: Here, it's a normal fish (though it appears smart enough to sneak behind Arthur). In the book, it was the ruler of an underwater kingdom who tries to convince Arthur than "might is right".

* DirtyCoward: Had no problem pushing Arthur out of the hole to get the pike as far away from where he was hiding as possible.
* HateSink: It pesters Wart for no valid reason. Whereas the predatory animals were looking for food, the squirrel sought him for a mate and Sir Ector, despite his strictness, showing genuine concern for his well-being, the frog just picks on him for amusement and leaves him for dead.
* {{Jerkass}}: Picks on Fish Arthur for no good reason.
* KarmaHoudini: Pushes Wart out of the hole he's hiding in, leaving him to be bait for the pike. He's never seen getting his comeuppance for this, unless the pike found and ate him.

* BaritoneOfStrength: He is a black knight from the tournament with a very deep voice provided by Thurl Ravenscroft.
* NiceGuy: Despite his two short scenes in the finale, he is quite a reasonable and fair-minded man who calls out the other knights for their unfair treatment of Wart/Arthur and agrees with Sir Pellinore's suggestion of letting the boy have a shot at pulling the sword from the stone.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He, alongside Sir Pellinore, comes to Wart's defense and demands the other knights trying to pull the sword themselves to give the boy a chance to try pulling the sword.

* BitCharacter: Her screen time isn't even 1/4th of the movie's entire runtime and 90% of her dialogue consists of chirps and chatter that barely sound like words. However, her entire time is falling for Wart and saving him, only to find he's not a squirrel and doesn't return her feelings, giving him a brief lesson on love and the pain it can cause, something he'd learn in later years upon meeting his future wife. She's also one of the more memorable characters of the movie as a result of this.
