8
9	Marianne is the protagonist and is the heir to the throne of the Fairy Kingdom.
10	----
11
12	* ActionGirl: After her CynicismCatalyst, she becomes a sword-wielding ScreamingWarrior. She is brave enough to take on the Bog King in the Dark Forest ''all alone'', and she proves to be his match.
13	* AffectionateNickname: "Tough Girl" from the Bog King. At first, he uses it as a sarcastic insult, but after falling in love with her, he uses it more endearingly.
14	* BattleCouple: With [[spoiler:the Bog King]] - both of them hold their own in the first fight scene they share, but it's when they team up to defeat Marianne's ex-fiancé that they truly show that together they're a force to be reckoned with. [[spoiler:The Bog King]] is naturally terrifying given what kind of creature he is, but Marianne shows that she can be just as ferocious and threatening. And they end up becoming the OfficialCouple.
15	* BeastAndBeauty: The fairy beauty to the Bog King's Beast, although apparently Marianne isn't much of a catch by goblin standards.
16	* BigSisterInstinct: It's implied that she spends the time-skip constantly hovering over her little sister to make sure her numerous suitors walked the straight and narrow. She also threatened the Bog King with death after he kidnapped Dawn.
17	* BirdsOfAFeather: The main attraction between her and [[spoiler:the Bog King]] is their similarity. Both enjoy having a WorthyOpponent, they have been burned by a previous romance and since have seen love as nothing but a ridiculous feeling.
18	* BrainyBrunette: She is of the most sensible characters of the movie and has brown hair, contrasting her rather ditzy blond sister.
19	* BreakTheCutie: Roland cheating on her really hurt her. Cue her singing how much she's over him.
20	* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: {{Zig zagged}} with the Bog King. They both comfort each other about how their own bad experience with love had deeply hurt them.
21	* CannotSpitItOut: Despite obviously being in love with the Bog King, all she can say is that she'll never see the Dark Forest the same again. It takes a crowd song to convince her to confess.
22	* CynicismCatalyst: Roland cheating on her caused Marianne to give up on love.
23	* DarkIsNotEvil: After [[CynicismCatalyst catching Roland cheating on her,]] Marianne started wearing darker clothing than the other fairies. She is a snarky, cynical, and fairly aggressive ActionGirl who selflessly fights for her family and homeland.
24	* DeadpanSnarker: She has a lot of dry wit, such as mocking Dawn's serial flirting by reciting the LongList of suitors in alternating sugary and tough tones.
25	* DefrostingIceQueen: Marianne relearns to love over the course of the film. It's the same with the Bog King. [[spoiler:The two ''defrost'' each other simultaneously]].
26	* FaceYourFears: Marianne develops a fear of the [[DontGoIntoTheWoods Dark Forest]] after being attacked by goblins there, so much so that she receives [[TraumaButton traumatic flashbacks]] when she goes near it. After [[DamselInDistress her sister]] is kidnapped, she's forced to enter it to save her. [[spoiler: She falls in love with the Bog King and he shows her the beauty of the Dark Forest which helps her get over her fears. ]]
27	* HeroesPreferSwords: She rushes into the Dark Forest to save her sister from an EvilOverlord with her courage and sword.
28	* InterspeciesRomance: She is a fairy who falls in love with [[spoiler:the Bog King, a goblin.]]
29	* IWorkAlone: She leaves for the Dark Forest to attack the Bog King alone, against her father's wishes.
30	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She is snarky, hot-tempered, and abrasive. She's also brave, protective, selfless, and can be very gentle with her loved ones.
31	* LovingAShadow: Marianne admits that she was so distracted by Roland's good looks that she didn't bother to get to know his real personality.
32	* MeaningfulName:
33	** Besides being the name that one of the pop songs uses, it also means "bitter" in Latin and "rebellious" in Russian.
34	** It's also the name of a type of anemone, which in Flower Language symbolizes loss of hope and feelings of abandonment, but can also mean anticipation of something good. That right there is Marianne's story in a nutshell.
35	** Let's see: Fell in love with a handsome jerk and is heartbroken to find out. However, she falls in love with [[BirdsOfAFeather someone similar to her]] but just didn't realize it 'til later on. [[SenseAndSensibility Does this remind you of anyone?]]
36	* OfficialCouple: At the end, she hooks up with [[spoiler:the Bog King.]]
37	* OnlySaneWoman: When surrounded by her ditzy sister, well-meaning but out-of-touch father, and the nameless civilians who think that Roland deserves a second chance, it is easy to see her as the only reasonable person around.
38	* PrincessProtagonist: She's the crown princess and future queen of the fairies.
39	* RealWomenDontWearDresses: Marianne is a pants-wearing TomboyPrincess in contrast to her PrincessClassic sister Dawn, who wears a dress the whole film. Marianne gets to be a sword-fighting badass while Dawn spends half the film as a DamselInDistress.
40	* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: She is a princess, and the heir to the throne to boot; she is also the first to confront the goblins taking over the elf's festival (doing better than its official security) and then flies in the Dark Forest to rescue her sister, and does better than her father's army.
41	* RunawayBride: Marianne leaves Roland at the altar because she catches him cheating on her the day of the wedding.
42	* ScreamingWarrior: When Marianne breaks into the Bog King's castle, she smashes through the skylight screaming bloody murder while trying to slice the Bog King in half.
43	* SecondLove: Her engagement to Roland ends in heartbreak; she finds new love in [[spoiler:the Bog King]] and becomes his Second Love, too.
44	* SiblingYinYang: She is the cynical, aggressive, tomboy to her sister Dawn's optimistic, bubbly, girly girl, although her faith is slowly restored over time.
45	* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: She dumps Roland when she catches him cheating on her ''on their wedding day''. Then, Marianne starts falling for the [[spoiler:[[DarkIsNotEvil Bog King]]]] after he shows his sweeter side.
46	* TomboyPrincess: She is a pants-wearing, sword-wielding fairy princess.
47	* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: When she changes her style and becomes a TomboyPrincess due to her CynicismCatalyst, Marianne adopts a lot of tomboy traits like wearing pants and [[HeroesPreferSwords learning to wield a sword]]. However, she also starts putting on eyeliner, although this could be interpreted as a {{Goth}}-side to her newer style.
48	* TookALevelInBadass: Marianne starts out a {{Princess Classic}}, running away screaming from the goblins, adorably clumsy, and barely able to hold a sword steady. After seeing her [[CynicismCatalyst fiancé with another woman]], she becomes a tomboy who'd prefer to practice sword-fighting blindfolded than to dance. She gets good enough to single-handily break into the Bog King's lair and fight him to a standstill.
49	* TraumaButton: She's triggered when seeing the Dark Forest and gets flashbacks to being attacked by goblins there.
50	* TheUnsmile: Gives a teeth gritting fake smile when forced to accompany her father to the Spring Ball. She claims it's one of her better ones.
51	* WideEyedIdealist: She starts out like this, and it certainly helps that she was feeling rather giddy for her wedding day. She happily proclaims that once she becomes ruler she'll be able to successfully negotiate with the goblins so that everyone can go wherever they want to, brushing over the longstanding fantastic racism on both sides. Very sadly, She falters and becomes much more cynical after she finds her fiancé cheating on her. Though she does get better over the course of the story, and plus, if the ending is any indication of this, [[spoiler:Her original dream of Fairies and Goblins uniting as one is ultimately realized as well]]!
52	* YourEyesCanDeceiveYou: Marianne does this to herself for training. She has her miniature {{Fairy Companion}}s attack her while she's blindfolded and she does a very good job at blocking them.

55	[[folder:The Bog King]]
56	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AlanCumming
57	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/imagesmbk.jpg]]
58
59	The Bog King is the son of Griselda, the king of the Dark Forest and the secondary antagonist-turned-anti-hero.
60	----
61
62	* AmazonChaser: He's quite surprised when Marianne punches him. The King also compliments her sword skills.
63	* AnimalMotifs: Despite being a goblin, he looks like a mosquito.
64	* AntiHero: He transitions into this when attempting to cure the love potion and fighting Roland, who has become the greater threat. He can be mean, and grouchy but he's definitely not evil.
65	* AntiVillain: He appears to be a love-hating bad guy, but gradually shows that he's got a softer and more compassionate side. His bitterness and anger mostly come from his earlier heartbreak.
66	* BattleCouple: With [[spoiler:Marianne]] - both of them hold their own in the first fight scene they share, but it's when they team up to defeat Marianne's ex-fiancé that they truly show that together they're a force to be reckoned with. The Bog King is naturally terrifying given what kind of creature he is, but [[spoiler:Marianne]] shows that she can be just as ferocious and threatening.
67	* BeastAndBeauty: The Beast to Marianne's fairy Beauty. It's played with as the movie shows that his standard of beauty leans towards his race - according to his culture, Marianne is the one who would be seen as beastly.
68	* BenevolentBoss: While he [[EnragedByIdiocy mows down the mushrooms when the information they pass onto him was corrupted]] and generally terrifies his underlings, he seems to get along fairly well with the goblins under his rule. He seems to know each of them by name, he lets his guards off-duty when it was clear that they are too tired to do their jobs, [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething he fights his own battles and he takes part in Dawn's kidnapping with them]]. In-turn the goblins all seem to be very loyal to him, as no one seems to object to his [[LoveIsACrime ban on love]], they share his disgust with Dawn, even trying to help encourage him when it is clear he is in love with Marianne.
69	* BirdsOfAFeather: The main attraction between him and Marianne is their similarity. Both enjoy having a WorthyOpponent, they have been burned by a previous romance and have since had very dismissive feelings towards love.
70	* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: {{Zig zagged}} with Marianne. They both comfort each other about how their own bad experience with love had deeply hurt them.
71	* CannotSpitItOut: Despite being obviously in love with Marianne, he tells her that she's always welcome to the Dark Forest. His mother has to repeatedly prod him into actually confessing.
72	* CardCarryingVillain: He tries very hard to be an openly evil guy but he's closer to a NobleDemon.
73	-->'''Dawn:''' I love you!\
74	'''The Bog King:''' But- I'm evil!
75	* DarkIsNotEvil: He's the King of the Dark Forest, but is more of an anti-hero.
76	* DeadpanSnarker: Has enough quips to keep up with Marianne. One zinger in particular is remarking that "the beast has awakened" in reference to Dawn.
77	* {{Deuteragonist}}: The second main focus after Marianne.
78	* EmbarrassingNickname: Dawn calls him ''"Boggy Woggy Kingy Wingy."'' He immediately corrects her every time.
79	* EnragedByIdiocy: Gets so mad at gossip evolution rendering intel useless that he attacks every mushroom in the line until he reaches the original.
80	* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: His mother insisting he get married annoys him, but also serves to his humanization.
81	* EvenEvilHasStandards: The Bog King may not be the nicest, but he is quite nice to Dawn and forbids the harming or eating of captives.
82	* EvilOverlord: He's first introduced as a stereotypical one; dark, mean, sinister, giving orders from his ominous lair, etc.
83	* FreudianExcuse: When he was "young and impetuous", he used the Love Potion on a girl he liked, only to get rejected anyway, unaware that it was because she was in love with somebody else. [[InsecureLoveInterest Believing that this was because he was unlovable]], this [[TookALevelInCynic embittered]] the Bog King to the point where he does everything in his power to keep the Love Potion from being brewed again (including the Sugar Plum Fairy's imprisonment) and [[LoveIsACrime made love illegal in the Dark Forest]], both to make it so that he couldn't be hurt again and [[WellIntentionedExtremist prevent anyone else from suffering the same rejection]].
84	* HeroWithBadPublicity: The fairies think he's an EvilOverlord when he's actually preventing people from brewing a dangerous potion.
85	* HiddenDepths: Despite his introduction as an EvilOverlord, the Bog King isn't cruel to his minions, just exasperated and annoyed. He also can be considerate of people's feelings (e.g., he doesn't call the boutonnière Dawn gives him ugly).
86	* HugeGuyTinyGirl: With Marianne. She dwarfs in comparison to him.
87	* IcyBlueEyes: Matches perfectly with his cynical nature and his (initial) EvilOverlord act.
88	* InsecureLoveInterest: Believes that he's too hideous for anyone to fall in love with.
89	* InterspeciesRomance: His mother brings his plenty of potential partners, none of whom look anything like him. [[spoiler:He (a goblin) begins one with Marianne (a fairy).]]
90	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Under all his jerkiness is a big softie.
91	* LargeAndInCharge: Towers over his subjects.
92	* LoveAtFirstPunch: Marianne punches the Bog King in the face upon their first meeting. If that didn't awe him enough, she later proves herself his [[WorthyOpponent equal in dueling as well]]. Their fight turns downright ''flirtatious''.
93	* MundaneSolution: His solution to {{gossip evolution}} rendering information useless? Plow through the line until he reaches the original mushroom man to get the information directly from the source.
94	* MyGreatestFailure: More like "My Greatest Regret". The Bog King is completely remorseful about trying to use a love potion on a girl he liked; presently, someone else using a love potion is one thing he won't stand for.
95	* NoNameGiven: Presumably he's not actually ''named'' Bog King. Theoretically, he was a prince at one point after all.
96	* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler:With Marianne.]]
97	* OneHeadTaller: The Bog King is one head taller than his LoveInterest [[spoiler:Marianne]] if he isn't slouching, which he does for most of the film.
98	* PetTheDog: He takes Dawn as his prisoner but he then treats her fairly nicely. He compliments her, accepts the gifts she gives him when she is loopy on LovePotion, and even makes sure that no one wakes her up when she falls asleep.
99	* PrimalStance: Starts out in the movie incredibly hunched over and stands taller as the movie goes on, reflecting his transition from villain to hero.
100	* RealMenWearPink: The Bog King somewhat reluctantly admits that he likes the flower boutonniere Dawn made for him. [[spoiler:It's because he's a secret romantic.]]
101	* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: The Bog King personally leads the raid into the Fairy Kingdom. He also seeks out his own intel because his mushrooms suffer GossipEvolution.
102	* SecondLove: [[spoiler:To Marianne, since her first love (Roland), was a complete jerk who never loved her.]]
103	* SinisterSchnoz: Has a long, thin, pointy nose.
104	* SpellMyNameWithAThe: ''The'' Bog King.
105	* StaffOfAuthority: He uses one either as a royal staff, weapon, or a makeshift ''microphone''. [[spoiler: Marianne later uses it as an air guitar.]]
106	* StrongFamilyResemblance: Griselda lampshades that he looks just like his father. We have to [[DisappearedDad take her word]] for it.
107	* SugarAndIcePersonality: Bog is normally a grouchy hostile EvilOverlord who seems to wear a permanent snarl on his face but also has a secret romantic side that he shows to Marianne.
108	* SurroundedByIdiots: His minions are pretty incompetent and he's aware of it.
109	* TinTyrant: Never seen without his armor (although it may actually be his skin), and the picture's villain (initially).
110	* WellIntentionedExtremist: Considering what a love potion can do to someone, it's hard not to sympathize with his fervor in banning them. Although his original true goal was to prevent anyone else from getting the love he was denied.
111	* WouldHitAGirl: He's not afraid to aggressively sword-fight against Marianne but harming her sister? [[WouldntHitAGirl No way!]]. The difference is the former is trying to hack him apart.

114	[[folder:Roland]]
115	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/SamPalladio
116	[[quoteright:275:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1e573562c55fbe608f58ea1bdb952548.jpg]]
117
118	Roland is the main antagonist and Marianne's ex-fiancé.
119	----
120	* BeautyIsBad: Considerably handsome and rotten to the core.
121	* BigBad: The whole plot kicked off with him cheating on Marianne and later manipulating Sunny in his attempt to use the love potion on her.
122	* BitchInSheepsClothing: He was in love with Marianne. But it didn’t last long to reveal his true colors.
123	* CharacterTics: Roland likes to twist one his curls between his fingers in order to show off how good looking he is.
124	--> '''Marianne''': I am ''so'' on to that hair thing.
125	* DirtyCoward: Oh '''yeah'''. He uses nearby fairies to act as human shields against an irate Marianne, even the girl he cheated on her with! He pressures Sunny to risk his life to make the love potion while he safely stays in the fairy kingdom. He hides when the goblins raid the Spring ball, despite being a fully armored soldier. The moment the odds are at all against him, he bails.
126	* DisneyVillainDeath: Gets ''two''. [[spoiler: Neither one sticks, since he can fly.]]
127	* EntitledToHaveYou: Never out right said, but he definitely displays this mentality. He wants the crown and sees Marianne as great eye candy, so in his mind that means he's got to have her, whether he actually loves her or not.
128	* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The second Roland says that he considers Marianne losing her good looks to be worse than losing her life, you know he's not as great a guy as Marianne seems to think.
129	* EvilCounterpart: To the Bog King. While the Bog King's appearance and initial manner are hard to look at, he proves to be a truly kind and selfless man who falls in love with Marianne's personality. Roland has the looks and princely air that initially won Marianne's heart, but he's really a [[EntitledToHaveYou self-entitled]] jerk who only cares about Marianne's looks and her connection to the throne. Also, both them used a love potion on a girl they were interested in, and with different outcomes: Bog eventually feels shame and regret for using it; Roland just keeps trying and trying to use it on Marianne, even though it's clear she wants nothing to do with him.
130	* EvilPlan: Acquire the crown and army of the Fairy Kingdom by marrying Marianne, first by seducing her and, when that fails, dousing her with love potion.
131	* FalseSoulmate: For Marianne. They're supposed to be getting married at the start, but it's obvious that Roland doesn't much care for Marianne as a person; he's mostly interested in her because she's the crown princess. Marianne then catches him cheating on her before the ceremony and wants nothing more to do with him. She later admits she was taken in by his charms and good looks, and didn't really know him. And then it turns out her true love is [[spoiler:the Bog King]]; this is exemplified in the ending where [[spoiler:Roland's attempt to use a love potion on Marianne fails, because her genuine love for the Bog King makes her immune]].
132	* FirstLove: To Marianne. He himself was never in love.
133	* {{Foil}}: To the Bog King. They are both suitors to Marianne, but they couldn't be more different. While Roland is a classically handsome PrinceCharmingWannabe, the Bog King is ugly by most fairy standards and could be considered attractive in alternative ways. While Roland is a DirtyCoward with aspirations of having an army fight his battles for him, the Bog King [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething fights his own battles]]. While Roland is charismatic enough to charm fairy royalty despite being a JerkWithAHeartOfJerk, the Bog King is SourOutsideSadInside who's loyalties are genuine. While Roland plans on using the Love Potion for entirely selfish reasons, the Bog King wants the Love Potion destroyed, having learned the kind of chaos it causes.
134	* GoldDigger: He wants to marry Marianne because she's the heir to the throne and can provide him with an army.
135	* HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler: Roland gets a face full of love potion right before being knocked into the ravine, and ends up falling in love with some kind of insect.]]
136	* HorseOfADifferentColor: Rides an armored squirrel.
137	* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Not only did he cheat on Marianne on their wedding day, but when she finds out his only concern is that he won't get his army.
138	* LightIsNotGood: He has shiny armor with gold trims and is a fairy of the light forest but that is in no way makes him a good guy.
139	* MilesGloriosus: He claims to have fought off a dozen goblins even though he just hid. He then uses it to leverage an army for him to lead.
140	* NeverMyFault: Roland immediately blames Sunny for drawing the ire of the Bog King by making a love potion, even though he was the one who convinced him to do it. Also, rather than own up to him being unfaithful to Marianne, he chooses to focus on her leaving him at the altar possibly to try manipulating her into taking him back.
141	* PrinceCharmingWannabe: Despite his whole song and dance routine, Marianne's having none of it, or his cheating self.
142	* RedRightHand: Get a good look at his wings when they're open. They have an unsettling, skull-like smile pattern spread across them. (They resemble the wings of an atlas moth.)
143	* TooDumbToLive: Let’s just say he shouldn’t have been cheating on his fiancé in broad daylight on their wedding day.
144	* VillainousCrush: Averted, as he doesn't actually care about Marianne as anything more than a path to a crown.
145	* WouldHitAGirl: [[spoiler: Threatens Dawn at swordpoint in an attempt to get Marianne and the Bog King to surrender]].

148	[[folder:Dawn]]
149	-> '''Voiced by:''' Meredith Anne Bull
150	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/untitled_41.png]]
151
152	Dawn is the younger daughter of the Fairy King and the sister of Marianne. Sunny has fallen for her.
153	----
154	* AbhorrentAdmirer: Because of the love potion, Dawn keeps throwing herself at the Bog King. He's annoyed with her singing SillyLoveSongs to him and is well aware that her feelings are not real.
155	* CuteButCacophonic: When under the effects of the love potion, to the point where the goblins will do anything to make her stop singing. She sings better once no longer under its spell.
156	* TheCutie: All of Dawn's traits, from her looks to her personality, are pure and adorable. Even the Bog King, a self-proclaimed EvilOverlord, couldn't bring himself to be mean to the little princess when faced with her sweetness.
157	* DumbBlonde: She comes off as silly and ditzy; all the more so when compared to her brown-haired sister.
158	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She's silly, but she cares.
159	* InLoveWithLove: Dawn's goal throughout the film is to find her true love. Her attempts mostly include flirting with every mildly attractive boy she sees.
160	* InnocentBlueEyes: Has light blue eyes and she's the ''most'' innocent.
161	* InterspeciesRomance: [[spoiler:She (a fairy) becomes this with Sunny (an elf) by the end.]]
162	* LoveEpiphany: Has one when [[spoiler: Sunny breaks the love potion, making her realize she loves him]].
163	* MotorMouth: Dawn has a tendency to run her mouth, and sometimes changes the subject without stopping for breath.
164	* NiceGirl: There's not a mean bone in this sweetheart's body.
165	* ObliviousToLove: Completely misses that Sunny is in love with her, despite his increasingly obvious hints. She's too busy flirting with the fairy boys to notice him. [[spoiler: This is what drives Sunny to make the LovePotion.]]
166	* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler:Realizes Sunny is her true love and so finally enters a relationship.]]
167	* PrincessClassic: She's got all the traits: sweet, feminine, and innocent.
168	* ShipperOnDeck: Dawn is as excited for Marianne's wedding to Roland as Marianne herself. When that doesn't pan out, she's equally enthusiastic about Marianne's feelings for [[spoiler: Bog]].
169	* SiblingYinYang: The optimistic, bubbly, girly girl to Marianne's cynical, aggressive, tomboy.
170	* TinyGuyHugeGirl: [[spoiler:The Huge Girl to Sunny's Tiny Guy. Sunny is half Dawn's height, making her tower over him.]]
171	* UptownGirl: [[spoiler: She (a princess) becomes an OfficialCouple with Sunny (a presumably poor elf).]]

177
178	Sunny is one of main characters; an elf who is best friends with the Fairy King's youngest daughter Dawn and is secretly in love with her.
179	----
180	* ActionSurvivor: He's a normal elf who breaks into the Bog King's castle twice. Thanks to some outside help and ThePowerOfLove, he makes it both times.
181	* DoggedNiceGuy: He's an unorthodox version of this trope because, as much as he wants to start a relationship with Dawn, he's ''also'' been hard at work helping her with her various crushes over a presumably long time (because there have been a lot of them).
182	* GenderBlenderName: Sunny, although technically unisex, is recognized as feminine by most English speakers.
183	* InterspeciesRomance: [[spoiler:Him (an elf) and Dawn (a fairy) by the end.]]
184	* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Early on, Sunny is helping Dawn in her attempts to hook up with various guys despite his obvious crush on her.
185	* JustFriends: With Dawn, though he doesn't let it affect their friendship.
186	* NiceGuy: A really sweet guy, if you ignore the fact that he tried to use a love potion to force Dawn to fall in love with him.
187	* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler:Dawn realizes that she is in true, non-love-potion love with him y the end.]]
188	* TakeMeInstead: When Bog King crashes the ball and has captured Dawn, Sunny begs to be taken instead and confessing that he’s responsible for the potion.
189	* TinyGuyHugeGirl: [[spoiler:The Tiny Guy to Dawn's Huge Girl. Sunny is half Dawn's height, making her tower over him.]]
190	* TokenMinority: The only elf main character (and he's voiced by the only African-American).
191	* VictoriousChildhoodFriend: [[spoiler:In the end when Dawn's love for him breaks the potion's spell]].

194	[[folder:Griselda]]
195	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/5d64ad66d4a11850fc8e130e0cb1c396.jpg]]
196	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MayaRudolph
197
198	Griselda is the mother of the Bog King and a supporting character.
199	----
200	* IWasQuiteTheLooker: So she claims when her life supposedly flashes before her eyes. We never see so for ourselves.
201	* JewishMother: Distinctly comes off like this, what with the voice, the nagging, the [[IWantGrandkids attempts to get her son to get married]], and the passive-aggressive nature of her complaints.
202	* IWantGrandkids: Constantly trying to play matchmaker to the Bog King.
203	* MoralityPet: The first clue that the Bog King is not as evil as he appears? His mother loves him, and he treats her kindly in return, even when she annoys him.
204	* OpenMindedParent: Because she wants her son to have a lover, she’s willing to introduce him to three potential partners, all whom are different creatures. Later on, she wholeheartedly approves of her son having a fairy girlfriend.
205	* ShipperOnDeck: Bog/''anyone'' to the point where she isn’t picky about the species of her son’s lover. She’s initially all for Bog/Dawn when Dawn, hopped up on love potion, declares her love for Bog and sings “I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)”, but she quickly ships Bog/Marianne as soon as she sees them in a DuelToTheDeath and getting flirty about it.
206	* StrongFamilyResemblance: Averted. She doesn't look a thing like her son. She does mention in passing that he has "his father's smile" though, suggesting that he takes after his father in appearance.
207	* TokenGoodTeammate: Played with. She's the only member of Bog King's court who isn't portrayed in a villainous light at the start, but it soon turns out that none of the Bog King's people (Bog King himself included) are actually "evil" per se.

213	The Imp steals the love potion and causes all sorts of mischief throughout the film.
214	----
215	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: When first introduced, Sunny asks him his name. The Imp just shrugs, laughs and then runs off.
216	* HeelFaceTurn: Though he was really just a mischief maker, [[OddFriendship the Imp sides with Sunny after he's caught]]. He even puts up with Roland using him as a white flag of truce at one point.
217	* TheImp: Well, yeah, this is his name but he also fits the trope with his mischievous behavior although he is no one's sidekick.
218	* ItAmusedMe: There doesn't seem to be much of a purpose behind his tricks.
219	* ShipperOnDeck: Likes to pair couples together, albeit with a preference for {{Interspecies Romance}}.
220	* SpannerInTheWorks: Steals the love potion from Sunny right as the Bog King shows up.

226
227	The Fairy King is the father of Marianne and Dawn, the King of the Fairy Kingdom.
228	----
229	* AdiposeRex: The Fairy King who is so overweight that he can't fly for anything but short bursts and requires a litter to fly him around.
230	* AllThereInTheScript: The Fairy King is not named in the movie but according to the animators his name is Dagda.
231	* CreatorCameo: Appears strikingly similar to Creator/GeorgeLucas, who wrote the original story and produced the film.
232	* {{Hypocrite}}: He tells his daughter not to value looks, but is completely shocked and disgusted over his daughters falling for a goblin and and an elf. It may just take some getting used to.
233	* LargeAndInCharge: Has a hefty build and is the king.
234	* PapaWolf: While he didn't get to fully show it, the King was willing to save his youngest daughter.
235	* ParentsAsPeople: Cares for his daughters a great deal, but sometimes isn't good at listening to their wishes.
236	* ShipperOnDeck: For Roland/Marianne, though he doesn't seem to be aware that Roland cheated on his daughter. He's no longer on deck when he sees Roland pour love potion on her.
237	* UnnamedParent: His real name his never revealed. The animators revealed his name as Dagda.

243
244	The Sugar Plum Fairy is the creator of the love potion and prisoner of the Bog King.
245	----
246	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: She is flighty, very high energy, and given to going on tangents.
247	* FogFeet: She has a genie-tail instead of legs.
248	* IronicName: Sunny lampshades this, noting that he was expecting someone more purple when he heard "Sugarplum".
249	* LargeHam: To the point that WordOfGod states that Chenoweth's performance had to be ''toned down''.
250	* MotorMouth: She has a rapid-fire delivery.
251	* SpellMyNameWithAThe: ''The'' Sugar Plum Fairy.
252	* TokenMinority: Seems very Indian in design for some reason.
253	* TrueBlueFemininity: Her color scheme is purely blue.
254	* YouDidntAsk: When she reveals the reason why the love potion didn’t work on the recipient of Bog’s affections, she says essentially this with him just assuming he’s too hideous to love.

256
257	[[folder:Others]]
258	* GiantMook: The aptly named Brutus is the largest of the Bog King's minions, towering over his fellow goblins. He's big enough to use the smallest goblins as earplugs!
259	* LaserGuidedKarma: The unnamed girl who Roland cheats on Marianne with is subjected to this. Since Marianne is the princess of their kingdom and is getting publicly married to Roland, the girl is a knowing home-wrecker. The film punishes her by having her be [[LovePotion love potioned]] into loving a frog. Though considering what [[JerkAss a jerk]] Roland is, this is probably an improvement.
260	* PantslessMalesFullyDressedFemales: The goblins. Only Griselda and one of the potential girlfriends are wearing any sort of clothing. [[spoiler:Averted with Stuff.]]
261	* SatelliteLoveInterest: The unnamed fairy Roland cheated on Marianne with is... [[ShapedLikeItself the unnamed fairy Roland cheated on Marianne with]], and that's all there is to know about her.
262	* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Averted with Stuff. She lacks traditional feminine features such as long eyelashes or any distinct curves and is almost always naked. She also has a deep voice, which only adds to Thang’s (and presumably the audience’s) belief that she was male.
263	* UnsettlingGenderReveal: PlayedForLaughs near the end. Thang learns that Stuff is actually a female troll, and he is quite shocked.
