7	->'''Voiced in English by:''' Creator/ElijahWood (both films and first video game); Creator/YuriLowenthal (second video game); Creator/ElizabethDaily (young, first film and video game)
8	->'''Dubbed by:''' Creator/ClovisCornillac (European French)
9
10	The main character of the film. Mumble is a young penguin who, unlike his peers, doesn't know how to sing and is an outcast because of that. However, he is also a very talented dancer.
11	----
12	* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: He's treated like an outcast because he's unable to sing.
13	%%* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Gloria.
14	* DistinctiveAppearances: He's an adult penguin who still has the plumage of a chick, as well as the only penguin with blue eyes.
15	* DistinguishingMark: Apart from his PerpetualMolt, he's got a black patch on his throat in the shape of a bow tie. When he returns to Emperorland, he has normal plumage from the shoulders down so it's gone, but the second film reverts him back to his full-bodied fluffy appearance to bring it back.
16	* DreadfulMusician: Mumble is a ''terrible'' singer -- Ramon even comments that he sounds like a dying animal when he shows the Amigos just how bad he is. This makes him an outcast in penguin society.
17	* HappilyMarried: With Gloria in the sequel.
18	* HollywoodToneDeaf: He was terrible at singing at first, as he "had no heartsong".
19	* {{Leitmotif}}: The film strongly associates him with "I Wish" by Music/StevieWonder to the point where it may or may not be his heartsong.
20	* MeaningfulName: Mumble's name was not chosen by Memphis or Norma Jean, but Gloria. She called him this because while he was trying to exit his egg, he made small noises.
21	* MommasBoy: Closer to his mother than his father.
22	* NiceGuy: Mumble is shown to be kind and friendly, as well as shy, but he can also be extremely brave when a situation calls for it.
23	* NonStandardCharacterDesign: His adult self is nothing like the other Emperors, instead resembling how he appeared in his youth.
24	* OfficialCouple: With Gloria at the end of the first movie.
25	* PapaWolf: Twice he nearly risks falling to death to save Erik from the same fate.
26	* PerpetualMolt: Subverted. As an adult, he never finished his molting. He's the only adult to have this.
27	* SingleTargetSexuality: He's only had eyes for one penguin: Gloria.
28	* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Mumble's original and unused adult was much more accurate to how penguins normally look when they grow up. Mumble's design was changed to that of a taller and older baby penguin to make him stand out from the other penguins.
29	* WellDoneDadGuy: In the sequel, Mumble worries about Erik not looking up to him.

35
36	Mumble's love interest. Gloria is a penguin known for her beautiful singing voice that Mumble had a crush on since they were kids. Gloria is generally a friendly and patient with Mumble.
37	----
38	* BabiesEverAfter: She and Mumble have a son named Erik by the sequel.
39	* BerserkButton: Don't insult her singing.
40	* BewareTheNiceOnes: Gloria isn't known to get upset, but she is kind of proud and got very mad when her singing was insulted.
41	* CharacterSignatureSong: Her heart song is "Boogie Wonderland" by Music/EarthWindAndFire.
42	%%* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Mumble.
43	* DudeMagnet: Became the most sought after female penguin when she grew older, large in part to being [[BeautifulSingingVoice the best singer]] in her class

45	* NiceGirl: She's gentle, patient, and good with children.
46	* OfficialCouple: With Mumble at the end of the first movie.

50	[[folder:Memphis]]
51	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/memphis_close_up.png]]
52	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HughJackman (both films), Creator/ChristopherCoreySmith (first video game)
53
54	Mumble's father who accidentally dropped his egg. He doesn't approve of Mumble's love for dancing, but genuinely wants the best for him.
55	----
56	* CharacterSignatureSong: His heart song is "Heartbreak Hotel" by Music/ElvisPresley.
57	* DemotedToExtra: Has a barely-noticeable one-line cameo in the sequel.
58	* FormerTeenRebel: He even states that he used to be someone who did what he liked.
59	* HeroicBSOD: By the time Mumble returns, Memphis has become so consumed with guilt over supporting Noah's decision to exile his son that he has isolated himself into a cave from the rest of the colony.
60	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Didn't support his son, but came around.
61	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: He has two big ones in the first film.
62	** When he recklessly dropped Mumble's egg. He blames himself heavily for the way his son turned out, and becomes more devoted to the penguin belief.
63	** Realizing there was no hope of changing Mumble, he supported Noah's decision to exile his son. However, he is soon consumed with guilt so much, that he temporarily loses all feeling of music in him, completely shutting off from the rest of the colony in shame.
64	* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: He's Music/ElvisPresley as a penguin. With emotional baggage.
65	* ParentsAsPeople: Memphis truly loves his son, but doesn't support his son's dancing, urging him to "repent" instead. Why does he do this? Because the winter incubation is not only an unforgiving period, but a devoutly religious one for the penguins, meant for singing praises to the "Great Guin" in the hopes that he'll bring them sunlight and a bountiful fishing season. Memphis, cold and desperately lonely, chose instead to lose himself in thoughts of Norma Jean, and got so into the memory of her song that he started dancing along and dropped Mumble's egg. His evangelicalism and hatred of anything that "ain't penguin" stem from a tragic combination of guilt and a sincere belief that going against the grain results in cosmic punishment.

70	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/NicoleKidman (both films), Creator/CathyCavadini (first video game)
71
72	Mumble's mother. Unlike Memphis, Norma Jean is much more accepting of Mumble's love for dancing.
73	----
74	* CharacterSignatureSong: Her heart song is "Kiss" by Music/{{Prince}}.
75	* DemotedToExtra: Has a barely-noticeable one-line cameo in the sequel.
76	* GoodParents: Very supportive of Mumble and his uniqueness, even when no one else is.
77	* NiceGirl: She is much more accepting of Mumble's quirks than Memphis.
78	* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: What Memphis is to Elvis, she is to Creator/MarilynMonroe. She even has a beauty mark, although it’s on her chest.

89	A group of five tiny adelie penguins and the comic relief of the movie. They quickly befriend Mumble and are known for failing to attract any ''chicas''.
90	----
91	* AllThereInTheManual: Their names and how to tell them apart. The only one besides Ramon whose name is said out loud is Raul, which is heard in Raul's opening line in the Adelie Rap, "''Yo soy Raul''".
92	* AscendedExtra: In the first film, Ramon was the first among equals, only really standing out among the group because he was voiced by Robin Williams. In the sequel, he's a main character.
93	* CasanovaWannabe: All five of them, especially Ramon. [[spoiler:Through Ramon actually does find a girl who loves him back in second movie.]]
94	* DemotedToExtra: In the sequel, the other four besides Ramon only make scattered appearances.
95	* DistinctiveAppearances: Each of them has a unique head crest. Ramon is the most obvious, with the reddish blond; Nestor has the pointy cardinal-like crest, Raul has a white dot on the back of his neck in lieu of a crest, Rinaldo has a flat-top, and Lombardo's is wispy and curly.
96	* GreekChorus: They don't talk to the audience, but most of their screen time is spent commenting on the action rather than contributing, and rather than having any motivation of their own, they just enthusiastically support Mumble on his quest.
97	* IWantMyMommy: Ramon screams this a few times when he is put in a situation that is scary for him.
98	* LatinLover: All of them are Mexican-coded penguins who love attracting attention from female penguins.
99	* [[NiceGuy Nice Guys]]: Bunch of cheerful, easy-going penguins who quickly befriend Mumble and try to help him, through Ramon tends to be little egotistical.
100	* TheNicknamer: Each of them has a different nickname for Mumble.
101	* TuftOfHeadFur: More like tuft of head feathers, but Ramon, Lombardo, Nestor, and Rinaldo to an extent have prominent and stylized feathers on their head to distinguish them from the majority of the Adelie penguins.

107
108	A fortune teller rockhopper who ends up going on an adventure with Mumble and Amigos after they find out that he is being chocked by the plastic rings on his neck.
109	----
110	* TheCasanova: He is surrounded by bunch of women who really seem to like him in his first appearance. It kind of fades away later on.
111	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: An egotistical jerk who nonetheless becomes grateful towards Mumble when he saves him and in the second movie, he develops a genuine friendship with Sven.
112	* NarratorAllAlong: Narrates the film for quite some time before his proper introduction.
113	* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: He's a caricature of Music/BarryWhite.
114	* TokenMinority: He is the only rockhopper penguin to appear in both movies.

119	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HugoWeaving (both films), Creator/ChristopherCoreySmith (first video game)
120
121	A leader of the Elders who disapproves of Mumble's dancing and exiles him for it.
122	----
123	* AntiVillain: Although he is disapproving of Mumble's dancing, he exiled him out of concern for the colony. Even during the confrontation leading to Mumble's exile, he tries to guide Mumble towards repenting instead of being exiled, for the sake of Mumble's father's "suffering heart". It's clear enough that even with his personal issues with Mumble's "foreign friends", having to cast out a penguin from the colony, inflicting heartbreak onto said penguin's parents in the process, is not something he takes any pleasure in, and were it not for his responsibility to protect and provide for the colony, and the colony's genuine belief that they are beholden to a god-figure whose displeasure with aberrant behavior has led to creating lean times until they correct themselves in the Great 'Guin's eyes, then Noah likely would've quietly been bothered by the goofy youths and neighbors of his colony but otherwise minded his own business. When the climax arrives and Mumble's seemingly mad ranting about "aliens" proves objectively true, he's visibly seething at what he perceives to be Mumble leading such bizarre beings here, but still defers to Mumble's lead in appeasing the "aliens" in the moment. After all, if he was right that they exist, then what else may he be correct about? Even if he "is" a ridiculous, foolish young penguin, he was the only thing close to an expert present for the very imminent potential threat of the "aliens", and rather than rail against change, Noah adjusted quickly to the urgent situation... all in the name of the colony.
124	* BigBad: The closest thing to a villain in the first movie.
125	* BraveScot: Has a thick Scottish accent and, though it's not as noticeable in the first film due to his being on the wrong side, defends his nation courageously. In the second film, he makes an inspiring speech ''while'' climbing up to the highest point in Emperorland to make it, beating up the skuas in his path as he does so.
126	* DemotedToExtra: Has a supporting role in the sequel.
127	* EveryoneHasStandards: He has a JawDrop when Memphis admits to having dropped Mumble's egg and concealing it for years.
128	* TheFundamentalist: He's a firm believer of "The Great Guin" and considers Mumble's inability to sing and affinity to dancing both an affront to tradition and a threat to the colony's food supply. He later gets over his prejudice.
129	* HeelFaceTurn: The main antagonist of the first film, a brave leader in the second.
130	* {{Jerkass}}: A prejusticed, close minded jerk. Through he becomes slightly nicer in the second movie.
131	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He eventually comes around once he sees the humans for the first time.
132	* LargeAndInCharge: He is the tallest of the emperor penguins and is their leader.
133	* PerpetualFrowner: The only times he smiles is once towards the end of the first film and a few scattered times during the second film.
134	* TookALevelInKindness: He starts out strongly opposed to Mumble's dancing, before finally giving in to the desire himself.

140
141	Noah's second in command on the council of elders.
142	----
143	* AllThereInTheManual: His name is not even mentioned in the first film's credits, but is in the video game adaptation. He is finally named in the credits for the sequel. His friendly relationship with Noah is also made clear in extended media.
144	* AmbiguouslyJewish: Has a New York Jew accent.
145	* BitCharacter: He is not that important, but has more lines than the rest of the elderly penguins associated with Noah.
146	* FantasticRacism: He refers to the adelies as vermin.

166	* HeadDesk: Repeatedly bangs her head on an iceberg after failing to teach Mumble to sing.
167	* HuskyRusskie: Portly and with a thick Russian accent.
168	* LargeHam: Comes with being an opera singing HuskyRusskie.
169	* SmallRoleBigImpact: Not a ''huge'' impact, but the way she pronounces "spontaneous" is the way Mumble continues to pronounce it later in life. She also teaches Mumble how to let out his feelings, but unintentionally through dancing instead of singing.

177	----
178	* AscendedExtra: A recurring extra in the first film and a supporting player in the second.
179	* CharacterSignatureSong: His heart song is "The Message" by Grandmaster Flash, the only heart song we hear that isn't about love or sex.
180	* {{Determinator}}: When separated from his son Atticus thanks to [[spoiler: the Doomberg]], he tries his absolute hardest to get back to his son. Even when other penguins tell him to take a break, he refuses to give up.
181	* ShipTease: With [[StudentTeacherRomance Miss Viola]] in the first film, but the second proves it never came to anything. Also with Gloria, though of course she ends up with Mumble.

186	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AnthonyLaPaglia (both films), Creator/DeeBradleyBaker (first video game)
187
188	A skua who attacks baby Mumble in the first movie. Marked with an ID tag around his leg, and he loves telling the story of the "alien abduction" that left him with it.
189	----
190	* AffablyEvil: Sure, he tries to attack baby Mumble, but he doesn’t show any genuine malice and even shuts up his cronies when they make a fuss over Mumble asking about his leg tag, saying that the question deserves an answer.
191	* AntiVillain: Sure, attempting to eat an adorable baby penguin is pretty horrific, but it's nothing personal. As he puts it,
192	-->"Flyin' birds, that's me, eat the flipper bird, and the fish. And frankly... there ain't a lot of fish."
193	* ApologeticAttacker: To baby Mumble, when he asks if he can "appeal to his better nature".
194	-->"Sorry, kid, but... no."
195	* BrooklynRage: He speaks like a stereotypical New Yorker and can have a bit of an attitude.
196	* TheCameo: Menaces the emperor penguins throughout the second film but doesn't call much attention to himself.
197	* CassandraTruth: His fellow skuas and the penguins doubt the existence of aliens (humans), yet as the plot of the first movie unravels, it is revealed that the aliens were actually real.
198	* DopeSlap: Uses his wings to hit his lackeys across the head.
199	* DubNameChange: Called "the Alpha Skua" in some international versions of the first film and all versions of the second. The closed captions of the second film also identify him as "Yellaleg", a nickname he mentioned in the first film, as that's the closest thing he's given to an actual name.
200	* EmbarrassingNickname: He was nicknamed "Yellaleg" by his fellow skuas thanks to the yellow ID tag put around his leg by the aliens. He refers to this as a humiliating experience. Amusingly, he is called "Yellaleg" in the subtitles of the second movie as opposed to Boss/Alpha Skua.
201	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: His real name is never revealed as the credits only refer to him as Boss/Alpha Skua. He is nicknamed "Yellaleg" in the second movie's subtitles, but there is still no information on his real name.
202	* SmallRoleBigImpact: Only appears in a couple of scenes in the first film, but puts the idea of alien invaders in Mumble's head.
203	* WouldHurtAChild: Is perfectly willing to eat the baby Mumble as a result of the fish shortage.

211
212	Gloria's parents, close friends of Memphis and Norma Jean.
213	----
214	* CharacterSignatureSong: A mash-up in the film's soundtrack would seem to be a depiction of their respective heart songs: "The Joker" by Music/SteveMillerBand (which claims "some people call me Maurice") and "Everything I Own" by Bread, which Michelle's voice actress performs.
215	* RecurringExtra: Maurice being more recurring.
216	* SatelliteFamilyMember: They are Gloria's parents, yet aren't terribly important to the plot and make only a handful of appearances.
217	* SequelNonEntity: While Mumble's parents are lucky to have cameos, Maurice and Michelle have no appearances in the sequel.

220	[[folder:The Leopard Seal]]
221	->'''Voiced by:''' Roger Rose (first film and video game)
222
223	A frightening predator who chases Mumble.
224	----
225	* GracefulInTheirElement: He is a very fast swimmer as shown in his chase scene and nearly catches Mumble several times. However, when he is forced onto the ice, he noticeably struggles catching up to Mumble and the Amigos. He is so slow on land, the Amigos even pretend to move in slow motion and are still faster than him.
226	* {{Jumpscare}}: He quickly jumps out of the water to catch Mumble by surprise.
227	* MonstrousSeal: He is a terrifying seal who nearly kills Mumble.
228	* ScaryTeeth: Has a mouth filled with sharp teeth.

231	[[folder:The Killer Whales]]
232
233	Two large killer whales who attack Mumble, Lovelace, and the Amigos at the Forbidden Shore.
234	----
235	* BackingAwaySlowly: They back away from Lovelace and retreat back into the water as he boasts in front of them. The other penguins immediately realize this is because of a massive ship coming through the Ace and heading straight in their direction.
236	* DeviousDolphins: Since killer whales are technically a large species of dolphin, they fit this trope by being playful, but also very aggressive.
237	* GracefulInTheirElement: They are graceful for their size and perform several flips while in the water but when they try to reach the penguins on land, they can just awkwardly stumble on the ice. They can't even put their entire bodies on the ice to reach the penguins.
238	* LightningBruiser: They are massive beasts to the penguins who are also very fast and agile swimmers.
239	* TheSpeechless: Unlike the Leopard Seal, the Killer Whales never speak and it is implied they can't speak to penguins.

245
246	Mumble's socially anxious son who, unlike his father, can't dance but has a beautiful singing voice.
247	----
248	* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Pleasantly averted in the sequel; while Erik clearly has crippling social anxiety that prevents him from relaxing enough to discover his heartsong, his relationship with his loving and supportive parents is healthy despite Mumble's difficulty with communicating. He also has close friends in the form of Atticus and Bodicca, who never leave his side and are always ready to distract, comfort, or defend him as necessary.
249	* AscendedExtra: Goes from having a brief cameo in the first film to being the main character of the second.
250	* EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: He actually appears at the very end of the first movie, but looks like Mumble as a hatchling with Gloria's brown eyes. In the sequel, he is completely redesigned to resemble his father more by having his blue eyes and bow tie. He is also noticeably smaller than the rest of the emperor penguin chicks and has spiky plumage on the top of his head.
251	* GenerationXerox: Appearance-wise. Erik not only has his father's blue eyes, but the darker patch on his chest that resembles a bow tie. Not to mention being just as adorable as little Mumble.
252	* MeaningfulName: Erik's talent turns out to be opera...just like [[Franchise/ThePhantomOfTheOpera another famous Erik]].
253	* ShrinkingViolet: Erik is naturally shy. He is never seen fully participating, successfully at least, with the other penguins' dances. Because he is shy, he usually lets Bo or Atticus do the talking, but will occasionally say a few words.

265	* AmbiguouslyAbsentParent: We know her mother is Miss Viola, but we never see her father.
266	* BadassAdorable: She goes all the way to the Adélie penguins by herself (on foot) to get help for the trapped Emperor Penguins.
267	* InexplicablyIdenticalIndividuals: She looks just like Gloria when she was a baby penguin, yet is Miss Viola's daughter.
268	* TrueCompanions: She and Atticus are this to Erik. When all the young penguins laugh at Eric, she and Atticus stand up for him. They even go to comfort him in his hiding hole.

288	A puffin who's hyped up by Lovelace as a flying penguin. He quickly becomes Erik's idol.
289	----
290	* ChickMagnet
291	* FakeUltimateHero: While Sven is treated as an all mighty figure due to seemingly being a super-penguin, Sven later admits he is actually a not a powerful penguin, but a puffin who escaped his home and never wanted anyone to pity him.
292	* FriendToAllChildren: Sven shows a great fondness towards Erik. He even takes on a PapaWolf mentality for the young penguin when he sees Erik is about to fall from a great height.
293	* LastOfHisKind: Sven is the last surviving puffin of his homeland, which was destroyed by a volcano according to the novelization.
294	* MixAndMatchCritters: He has the colorful beak of an Atlantic puffin, but also has the blonde tufts of a tufted puffin.
295	* NiceGuy: Despite the fact that he lied about being a penguin, he does help out Mumble a lot and never seems to be malicious.
296	** He also tries to give good advice to Erik and even helps Ramon find love despite Ramon making fun of him earlier.
297	* TokenFlyer: He is the only character on good terms with the penguins who can fly.
298	* TraumaButton: Discovering the humans eating chicken severely traumatizes Sven, causing him to believe they ate ''any'' birds, including his own species. Seeing them again later on causes Sven to freeze up in terror and hide behind an iceberg.
299	* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Sven stops participating in the events of the plot once the humans are approached for help, as he doesn't trust humans after witnessing that that they eat birds. He never shares this information with anyone, leaving his story arc feeling slightly unfinished.

307	Two krill who function as the comic relief of the second movie.
308	----
309	* AmbiguouslyGay: Bill is implied to have a thing for Will.
310	* ButtMonkey: Both, more so at the start of the movie, but it gradually got better for them.
311	* {{Determinator}}: Will refuses to give up on his quest to move up in the food chain despite all the danger, and Bill's pleading.
312	* FearlessFool: Will fits this to a tee near the beginning of the film, as he eagerly leaps into danger, ready to attack a seal hundreds of times larger than he is without fear for his own safety.
313	* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Will wants to be "one in a krillion".
314	* WackyWaysideTribe: No other character ever learns of their existence; they simply have a long-running subplot which only barely interacts with the events and themes of the film.

322	----
323	* DefrostingIceQueen: Towards Ramon who she at first (not entirely incorrectly) sees as nothing but a hopeless loser. She eventually warms up to him.
324	* HeadTurningBeauty: Almost all the penguins surrounding her look towards her direction when she makes her presence known.
325	* InformedAttractiveness: Ramon considers her a very beautiful penguin, but she really doesn’t look too different from the other adelie females seen throughout both movies.
326	* SatelliteLoveInterest: She is Ramon’s love interest, but has little defining traits of her own.

332
333	A powerful beachmaster elephant seal.
334	----
335	* AscendedExtra: Not as a character, but his voice actor had a very minor role as an elephant seal in the first film. He is also the first elephant seal with a major role, as the ones in the first movie were just minor characters seen in one part of the movie when Mumble, Lovelace, and the Amigos were passing through their territory.
336	* BruiserWithASoftCenter: He is a temperamental elephant seal who is shown to be a fierce fighter, but he is very affectionate towards his two sons.
337	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Doesn't care much for the penguins and can be agressive and arrogant, but also cares for his kids and does come around to help others.
338	* LargeAndInCharge: He is a truly impressive specimen and has the muscle to earn his role as the Beachmaster.
339	* ReusedCharacterDesign: He has the same design as Barry, one of the elephant seals Mumble comes across in the first movie. As mentioned above, he is even voiced by the same actor.
