* MyBelovedSmother: If Nigel's commentary in "Sir Nigel" is anything to go by, his mother's overbearing nature is something that's been prevalent since he was a kid. It might be because Nigel is her only child and so she wanted the absolute best for him, something which he himself believes. She can also be this with her grandchildren, especially Eliza and Donnie.

[[folder:Shaman Mnyambo]]
The mysterious shaman who gave Eliza her ability to speak to animals.
----
* BalefulPolymorph: Was turned into a warthog by a more powerful shaman of his tribe after Mnyambo ate his prized sheep. He would turn back to normal if someone showed him kindness, which turned out to be Eliza.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Grants Eliza’s desire to speak to animals, but in the process removes her ability to communicate with humans.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Eliza’s kindness to him is what convinced him to give her the gift to talk to animals. Later it becomes “because you were kind to others”, after seeing Eliza risk her life to save Darwin it convinced Mnyambo to cast a harder spell so that Eliza can speak to both animals and people.
* EarlybirdCameo: Appears in the intro for every episode, but does not make a proper appearance until much later.
* EquivalentExchange: He explains this is the reason his first spell makes Eliza talk to animals but makes her unable to talk to humans. He does know a spell that lets her do both but it is very difficult to cast, it takes him being touched by Eliza and Darwin’s friendship to convince him to use that spell.
* {{Geas}}: Basically how his second spell works, Eliza can talk to animals but if any humans find out the spell will fade.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He can be very gruff and is a bit of a hedonist, but is still quite kind, grateful, and even a bit wise.
