Line #11 WesternAnimation/LegoElves


1	''LEGO Elves'' is a franchise of Franchise/{{LEGO}} products introduced in 2015. It follows the adventures of Emily Jones, a [[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent "regular girl-type girl"]] who inherits a [[MagicalAccessory necklace]] that transports her to the magical land of Elvendale. There, she meets a group of Elves with ElementalPowers who help her to find her way back home.

3	The main story is told through a series of animated TV specials aired on Creator/DisneyChannel to promote the theme, along with a series of side-story webisodes. An adaptation of the second year storyline was made by the same studio behind ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender'' titled ''WesternAnimation/LegoElvesSecretsOfElvendale'' aired on Creator/{{Netflix}}. [[ShowAccuracyToyAccuracy The TV specials opted for more realistic depictions of the characters and settings than LEGO bricks would allow, but the 2017 storyline made the characters and certain objects more Lego-esque.]]

6	----
7	!! This show provides examples of:
8	* AccidentalHero: Ragana, in one of the shorts. She saves the town by blowing up a boulder when she was really trying to stop the band from playing music.
9	* AllThereInTheManual: Some information about the characters (likes, dislikes, etc.) are listed on the official website.
10	* AmbiguouslyRelated: Cronan's mother was one of the five sisters, as was Emily and Sophie's grandmother which would make her Cronan's aunt. The webisodes never delve into this.[[note]]This would make Cronan and the Jones sisters first cousins once removed, as the Netflix series acknowledges by having Sophie call him their cousin[[/note]]
11	* AmuletOfConcentratedAwesome: Emily's amulet, which belonged to her grandmother and has magical powers.
12	** Cronan the Goblin King has his own Shadow Amulet, which belonged to his mother, one of the five sisters.
13	* AnimalCompanion: Each elf usually has one or two hanging around.
14	%% * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Sophie Jones to Emily
15	* ArtShift: The 2017 storyline renders the characters to look more like their real world mini-dolls. The artwork for the sets is still the same style, however.
16	* BigDamnHeroes: Tidus, Sira, and Aira get one near the end of "Dragons to Save, Time to be Brave".
17	* TheBigDamnKiss: Sira gives one to Tidus after he confesses to her, which leaves him slack jawed.
18	* BigEater: Farran and Thorne. Tidus points out that Thorne most likely picked up the trait from Farran.
19	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Ragana inflicts this on Zonya in the second year, while the Goblin King does this to the entire goblin race.
20	* ChainPain: Ragana can create whips and chains made of shadow magic.
21	* {{Claustrophobia}}: The only confined space Zonya feels comfortable in is her own cave. Her reaction to landing in a small clearing was to [[KillItWithFire SET FIRE TO IT]].
22	* ColorCodedElements: Both the elemental magic itself and characters, objects, and settings associated with those elements: green is earth, red is fire, blue is water, and purple is air. The fifth element, love, is light blue. Shadow magic is associated with the colors black and light green.
23	* CoolBoat: Naida's ship, which serves as both her home and one of the Elves' primary forms of transportation.
24	* TheCorrupter: The Shadow Fountain, an entity whose waters can gift great magic [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity at the cost of the drinker's mind.]]
25	* CostumeEvolution: The elves and Emily get new outfits each year.
26	* DefrostingIceQueen: Skyra isolated herself after Emily's grandmother left and is thus difficult to get along with.
27	* DistantDuet: One is done by Emily and Ragana in a short.
28	* DependingOnTheWriter: Ashwing's gender fluctuates. In the bios Ashwing is referred to as a she, but Tidus refers to the dragon as being male in a webisode.
29	* TheDragon: Dusti and Jynx are CoDragons for Ragana, while Dukelin is this for Cronan.
30	* DragonRider: The elves and Emily each become one in the second year.
31	* DrunkOnTheDarkSide: A literal example. Drinking from the Fountain of Shadow grants an elf great magic while making them completely bonkers. Ragana goes swimming in it.
32	* ElementalPowers: The elves of Elvendale and the dragons all have these.
33	** PlayingWithFire: Azari, Ragana, Johnny Baker, Spark, and Zonya (Fire).
34	** MakingASplash: Naida, Tidus, Rayne, Merina, Lula, Rosalyn and Sapphire. (Water).
35	** GreenThumb: Farran, Sira, Floria, Thorne, Cronan and Ashwing (Earth).
36	** BlowYouAway: Aira, Skyra, Fledge, and Gust (Wind).
37	** HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Emily, Estari, and Elandra (Love).
38	* EpicFail: Naida's first attempt at dancing, though the fact that she did so on the railing of a small boat probably didn't help.
39	** Azari's many attempts to ride Zonya.
40	* EvilCounterpart: Ragana to Emily. Ragana works alone, was ostracized for having weak magic and holds Elvendale (and nice things in general) in contempt. Emily unites her elven friends, is considered special for her differences and loves adventuring and life in Elvendale. Furthermore, both are empowered by an outside source (the Shadow Fountain and the amulet).
41	* EvilOverlord: The Goblin King.
42	* EvilIsHammy: Ragana, though Cronan can give her a run for her money.
43	* FaceHeelTurn: This happens to Naida in "Down a Dark Path". She gets better.
44	* FacelessEye: Cronan's personal symbol.
45	* FantasyWorldMap: One is obtained by Emily in the first year. It magically updates with the locations of the four magical keys.
46	* FromNobodyToNightmare: Ragana was an elf that was teased for having weak magic. After drinking from the Shadow Fountain she has powers stronger than a single elf.
47	** Dukelin is this for the goblins, not excelling at anything until he tried villainy.
48	* GoldAndWhiteAreDivine: The Queen Dragon, Elandra, and baby queen dragon have this coloration.
49	* GreenEyedMonster: Aira and Farran get jealous when the other seems to take a romantic interest in someone else.
50	** Cronan's mother began her descent into dark magic because Skyra was chosen to be the portal guardian over her.
51	* HomelessHero: Azari, though her friends are happy to let her stay with them as long as she needs to.
52	* IJustWantToHaveFriends: Ragana shows shades of this, but is in denial and too DrunkOnTheDarkSide to act on it.
53	* IJustWantToBeNormal: Part of the reason that Emily's grandmother left Elvendale is because she was more like the humans on Earth.
54	* LargeAndInCharge: Elandra is the largest of the dragons and is their queen.
55	* LivingShadow: Cronan has a pet shadow beast, which he uses to threaten Ragana at one point. It usually takes the form of a raven.
56	* MerchandiseDriven: As a Lego series, this is a given.
57	* {{Narcissist}}: Ragana is one, after years of the Shadow Fountain telling her she's perfect.
58	* MinionWithAnFInEvil: Ragana goes through many of these (including Johnny Baker!), looking for an evil apprentice, but ends up firing all of them.
59	* NoHuggingNoKissing: If this trope was ever in effect, it goes flying out the window when [[TheBigDamnKiss Sira lays one on Tidus]].
60	* NonindicativeName: [[LampshadeHanging The official website itself]] points out that the Goblin King is not in fact a goblin but an earth elf with shadow magic.
61	* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Ashwing is more similar to a wyvern than the other dragons as well as having far more horns and spikes.
62	* OfficialCouple: Sira and Tidus become this in one of the shorts.
63	* TheOneGuy: Farran. His dragon Thorne is this among the older dragons.
64	* OrcusOnHisThrone: Both Ragana and Cronan have this habit. Much of Ragana's role was waiting for the protagonists to bring her the dragons.
65	** This is lampshaded by Sophie when she taunts Cronan.
66	--> '''Sophie''': Don't you think that if you're going to do something evil, you should just go ahead and do it, instead of standing around talking about it?
67	* OurDragonsAreDifferent: The dragons in the series all have elemental powers like the elves. Additionally, the baby dragons will die if separated from their mother for too long.
68	* OurGoblinsAreDifferent: These goblins are diminutive, bumbling idiots. They're only evil because Cronan is mind-controlling them.
69	* {{Pegasus}}: Elvendale has these, with one being Skyra's animal companion.
70	* PlotCoupon: The four magical keys, which need to be collected to open the portal to send Emily home.
71	* ThePowerOfFriendship: A common theme in the series.
72	* PsychoSerum: The water from the Shadow Fountain. When Ragana drinks it it amplifies her weak powers but causes her to turn evil. In "Down a Dark Path" the same thing happens to Naida, but she gets better.
73	* RaceAgainstTheClock: Emily and the elves had to reunite the baby dragons with their mother before the hourglass ran out of sand.
74	* RealAfterAll: Ragana, the elf witch of the Shadowlands. Not only do the elves find out that she's real, they used to go to school with her!
75	* RightBehindMe: This happens to Sophie as she is making fun of Cronan in front of the goblins.
76	* SceneryPorn: Elvendale has some gorgeous scenery in both the TV episodes and the sets.
77	* ShipTease:
78	** The webisode "Crushing It" reveals that Aira has a crush on Farran.
79	** The webisode "Rumor Has It" shows that innkeeper Sira has feelings for dragon trainer Tidus.
80	* SicklyGreenGlow: Shadow magic has this effect.
81	* SlasherSmile: Ragana and Cronan sport these when they are feeling or acting particularly malicious.
82	* SlaveRace: The Goblin King has turned the goblins into one.
83	* SpeaksFluentAnimal: Elves can speak to animals.
84	* SupremeChef: Johnny Baker. The only one who hates his cooking is Ragana (who says it's too sweet).
85	* SurroundedByIdiots: The Goblin King is constantly frustrated by his incompetent {{Mooks}}.
86	* TakeOverTheWorld: The Goblin King's ultimate goal is to rule both worlds.
87	* TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: Upon meeting Ragana everyone is shocked to learn how 'normal' she looks. In one short she dresses up like other elves and passes unnoticed into a town.
88	* TokenEvilTeammate: Dukelin was this for the goblins before they were brainwashed into Cronan's minions.
89	* VagueAge: While Emily is clearly a teenager, it's hard to tell exactly how old the various elf characters are supposed to be. The oldest known elf character, Skyra, is presumably similar in age to Emily's deceased grandmother but does not show any signs of old age.
90	** Cronan and Rosalyn also. They look only a little older than Emily, [[OlderThanTheyLook but were kids when Emily's grandmother first left for Earth, long before Emily was born]].
91	* WaterIsWomanly: Naida Riverheart is the water elf of the group and an empathetic, wise, and patient young woman in a blue dress with long, blue-hued hair.
92	* WeUsedToBeFriends: Cronan and Rosalyn. A couple, in fact.
93	* WorldHealingWave: Cronan's shadow amulet releases one when it breaks, restoring the forest.
