List of Disenchantment characters
Disenchantment is an American adult animated television series starring Abbi Jacobson as Princess Bean, Eric Andre as Luci, and Nat Faxon as Elfo. The series' seasons are split into halves; the first season, consisting of twenty episodes, was released in two equal parts; the first ten episodes premiered on Netflix on August 17, 2018, and the second ten were released on September 20, 2019. The first half of season two, entitled Part 3, is set to be released on January 15, 2021. The following is a list of characters featured in Disenchantment.[1]
Primary characters
Princess Bean
Tiabeanie, or Bean, is portrayed by Abbi Jacobson as the drunk teenage princess of Dreamland. Bean, as the main character of the entire series, is the daughter of King Zøg and Queen Dagmar, but after Dagmar accidentally poisoned herself, Zøg married Queen Oona, who became Bean's stepmother. In the ninth episode, "To Thine Own Elf Be True", Bean must choose to either bring Dagmar or Elfo, both of whom previously died, back to life with the Eternity Pendant. Bean chooses Dagmar, which angers Elfo when he arrives in Hell and sees her decision. Dagmar orchestrates Dreamland's fall, and takes Bean on a boat to Maru, where Dagmar was from, to meet the entire family.
Bean often sneaks away to the local bar, The Flying Scepter (later renamed Luci's Inferno after Luci wins the bar in an arm-wrestling contest), to get away from her royal duties, and returns to the castle drunk. Bean's full name is actually Tiabeanie Mariabeanie la Rochambeau Grunkowitz, but she calls herself "Drunkowitz" whenever she is drunk, as producer Josh Weinstein announced on Twitter after the first season was released.[2]
At the end of the first season, Tiabeanie falls through the ground into the Catacombs, the tunnels the run under Dreamland's castle, and is met by Dagmar, who asks her for a hug.
Elfo
Elfo is the socially awkward and shy elf companion and, for a while, love interest, of Bean and friend of Luci. At the beginning of season one, Elfo leaves his homeland of Elfwood in search of a better, sadder life, but near the middle of the season, Elfo is killed by an unknown knight after returning to Elfwood to plead with the eves for help. In part two, Bean and Luci are able to communicate with Elfo and tell him to go down to Hell, so they can find him and bring him back to life. Their attempts succeed, and Elfo's soul is returned to his body.
Later in the season, Elfo meets legendary elf Leavo, and almost kills him for his magical blood, which possessed the abilities to bring the residents of the kingdom of Dreamland back to life after Queen Dagmar turned them all to stone, but Elfo decides that it isn't right to kill Leavo and instead Leavo aids him in convincing the elves back at Elfwood to donate their blood. In the season one episode "The Electric Princess", Elfo becomes Luci's roommate. At the end of season one, Elfo is sentenced to death after being Bean's lawyer during her trial, but falls through the ground into the Catacombs right before he is about to be burned on the stake and is met by former Queen Dagmar.
Luci
Lucille, also known as Luci, is Bean's "personal demon" as he calls himself. He was sent from the mysterious kingdom of Maru, as it is revealed in part two, and he develops a close friendship with both Elfo and Bean, even going to the lengths of sacrificing his immortality to betray his fellow demons and save Elfo, who died in part one. Luci is often seen smoking, and makes witty remarks and insults in addition to eating dead birds whole.
Luci was sent from Maru by Emperor Cloyd and his sister Rebecca to spy on Bean and corrupt her to be willing to go with Dagmar and become the new queen of Maru, but Luci grows close to Bean and Elfo, developing a really deep friendship with them, and even leaves Maru for them. Luci is portrayed by actor and comedian Eric Andre.
King Zøg
Zøg is the overweight, annoying king of Dreamland and the father of Bean and Derek. He first married Queen Dagmar a "noble's daughter from a faraway kingdom" and had Bean, until Dagmar died and Zøg remarried to Oona, a reptile from Dankmire, and had Derek, Bean's half-brother. Zøg is portrayed by John DiMaggio.
In the end of part one, after Zøg is betrayed by Dagmar, the entire kingdom of Dreamland is turned to stone. When Bean returns to the kingdom, Zøg thinks that she was working with Dagmar, but Bean saves him and convinces him that she was also blindsided. In part two, Zøg also befriends Prince Merkimer. After he is divorced by Oona, Zøg dates a selkie who is half bear and half woman, gets robbed by a true of circus elves who turn out to be trolls, and even tries to get Gout to impress a king from a faraway kingdom.
Queen Oona
Oona, voiced by Tress MacNeille, is Zøg's second wife and the queen of Dreamland during season one. Oona is Darkmirian, a race of humanoid reptiles, and doesn't know much about humans. In episode six, "Swamp and Circumstance," Bean, Elfo, Luci, and the rest of the team from Dreamland visit Oona's hometown of Dankmire, where Oona was class clown in school, and, in an attempt to be kind, end up being disrespectful and are chased out the city gates by the leaders of the country. Oona is also believed by Zøg to be the cause of Dreamland's fall in the end of part one instead of Dagmar.
In season two, Oona has a smaller part, and, after being thrown into the ocean by Dagmar who wants her dead, tries to warm Bean of Dagmar's betrayal. Bean does not hear her, and Oona is instead picked up by a band of pirate who are led by famed elf Leavo, who left Elfwood before Elfo and never came back. Oona convinces the pirates on the ship to be brave and actually raid other ships, and upon returning to Dreamland, she promptly divorces Zøg and sets off to captain the pirates in Leavo's absence when he decides to live in Elf Alley with the other elves.
Bonnie Prince Derek
Derek is the second son of Zøg and the first son of Oona. He is a mix Dankmirian and Dreamlander, and often looks up to his older half-sister Bean, who brushes him off, finding him annoying. Derek has a recurring nightmare about an increasingly large skillet due to having almost been cooking on one by hillbillies to be fed to the Swamp Monster in episode six, "Swamp and Circumstance." In the end of season one, fearing Oona's wrath, Zøg locks Derek up in the nighest tower in the castle to keep him safe, but then forgets about him until a few episodes later in season, in "The Very Thing," after Oona and Zøg get a divorce, they then realize that Derek has been locked in the tower all this time. They rescue him and tell them of their divorce, and he takes it rather well.
Later, towards the end of the season, Derek is feeling especially blown off by Bean, and when he asks if she can tag along with her to the pub, she says no. Derek scampers down to the beach and finds a small octopus which he names Slimy, and by the time he shows it to Elfo, who he has befriended, Smily has grown into a giant creature. Slimy takes Derek captive, but Bean is able to save him, revealing that she does care about him. However, Bean's confession does not make it any harder to sentence Bean for death after shooting Zøg and making Derek de facto King in his place, even though the shooting was an accident.
Pendergast
Pendergast is the head knight of Dreamland voiced by Eric Andre. Pendergast appears in both seasons of the show and is one of the first Dreamlanders to be turned to by Dagmar at the end of part one, but is mistaken by Luci for a statue. Before and after being revived, Pendergast is portrayed as a wimpy knight who tries to be manly.
Odval
Odval is the royal advisor of Zøg. He is a Dreamlander who is constantly trying to undermine his ruler and take control of the kingdom. Odval is turned to stone by Dagmarin the end of part one, and is wheeled around by Zøg in a wagon, who takes comfort that his so-called friend is near him. After being brought back to life by the Eternity Pendant and the Elixir of life, Odval continues to run his secret society that operates in the shadows under the castle, first introduced in the part one episode "Castle Party Massacre."
After Zøg is accidentally shot by Bean, to Odval's glee, he and his partner in crime, the Arch Druidess, rigs Bean's trials and gets her sentenced to death by burning, as well as influencing the weak-minded de facto King Derek. Odval is portrayed by Maurice LaMarche.
Prince Merkimer
Merkimer is the youngest son of the king and queen of Bentwood. He is set to marry Bean after his older brother Guysbert is killed, but drinks what he thinks is elf's blood before the wedding to boost his courage. It is actually pig's blood, and transforms into a hog while walking down the isle. After that, he stays in Dreamland and hangs around the kingdom. After everyone else is turned to stone, Merkimer finds Zøg and they befriend each other until he insults Zøg. Later, he encourages Bean to write an autobiographical play, but takes credit for it and stars at Zøg.
Queen Dagmar
Queen Dagmar is Bean's mother and Zøg's first wife. She was girl when Bean was just a little girl, because her wine was poisoned. However, in "Dreamland Falls", Luci makes an important discovery and realizes that it was actually Dagmar who poisoned the wine, which was meant for Zøg, but Bean accidentally switched their glasses. In the penultimate episode of part one, Bean chooses to bring Dagmar back to life with the Eternity Pendant instead of Elfo, not knowing Dagmar's true intentions. Bean boards a boat with Dagmar and they head to Maru, leaving most of Dreamland turned to stone.
In part two, Dagmar introduces Bean to the rest of her family (Cloyd, Rebecca, and Jerry) but then tries to nail a crown to her head to make her the queen of Maru. Bean escapes and seemingly kills Dagmar, but she keeps appearing in her dreams, telling her she was meant for something bigger and even giving her a strange music box that Bean cannot get rid of. In the end of the season, Bean is about to be burned at the stake but instead falls through the ground and ends up in the Catacombs, a series of tunnels running under the Dreamland castle, and meets a still-alive Dagmar, who asks her for a hug.
Secondary characters
Introduced in part one
- Kissy the Elf is one of Elfo's fellow elves.[3] She has been in some sort of relationship with most of the men in Elfwood, including Elfo, right before he leaves the elf city. In season two, Kissy moves to Dreamland where the elves have set up their own miniature town "Elf Alley" with the rest of the magical creatures. There, Kissy begins a relationship with Luci, despite Elfo's warning that Kissy is only using him. Kissy breaks up with Luci and all the other men she was dating at the time in that same episode.

The knights go on a crusade to bring back his so-called girlfriend, and return with an actual giantess, who is very annoyed with Elfo's charades. He promises to find Tess a replacement eye for the one she lost if she attends a royal ball with him, and she agrees.

In "Tiabeanie Falls", Chazzzzz testifies against Bean in her trial, which is rigged by Odval who wants to overthrow the kingdom and take control of it himself, and reveals that his name is spelled with five z's. This was a reference to the Futurama episode "Where No Fan Has Gone Before" when an alien entity named Melllvar asks George Takei to sign a poster, and Melllvar tells him that his name is spelled with three l's. Theories on Reddit have noted that Chazzzzz,[10] voiced by David Herman, could be a "time displaced" version of Bonnie Prince Derek.[11]
