List of Disney's Tangled characters

The following is a list of characters from the franchise Tangled which includes the 2010 film of the same name, Tangled Ever After (2012), Tangled: Before Ever After (2017), as well as the 2017-2020 television series Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure which was previously titled Tangled: The Series.

The franchise takes the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale character Rapunzel and expands on the surrounding world with new characters and settings.

Princess Rapunzel, born with long hair as the result of the power of the sun drop, was kidnapped by Mother Gothel so she could use the power of Rapunzel's hair. Rapunzel eventually escapes with Flynn Rider and goes on an adventure that changes her life. Always optimistic and searching for the brighter side of things, Rapunzel does all she can to help her friends and family by showing that nothing can keep her down.

Rapunzel is voiced by Mandy Moore, except in the video game Kingdom Hearts III, where she is voiced by Kelsey Lansdowne.^[1]

Eugene Fitzherbert, born Horace and better known as Flynn Rider, was abandoned by his father in order to protect him. Flynn grew up as a cocky thief. His luck changed when he found himself unwillingly rescuing Rapunzel from a tall tower. Since then, he has fallen in love with her and has changed his ways to be by her side by protecting her at all costs until he eventually weds her. He is shown to prefer Eugene as his name in Tangled the Series.

Flynn Rider is voiced by Zachary Levi.^[2]

Pascal is a chameleon who was washed away one rainy night until he found himself adopted by a young Rapunzel. Considered Rapunzel's best animal friend, Pascal is ever loyal to her and despite his small appearance, hides boundless energy that always comes in handy when protecting his friends.

Pascal is interchangeably voiced by Frank Welker and Dee Bradley Baker in all forms of media.

Maximus is a horse for the royal guard. For years, he has been dead set on bringing in Flynn Rider to face his crimes. However, due to Rapunzel's influence and Flynn's eventual reformation, Maximus has become one of their closest allies. A strong, sturdy and reliable horse, Maximus is more of a soldier than the actual soldiers in Corona.

Maximus is interchangeably voiced by Frank Welker and Dee Bradley Baker in all forms of media.

Mother Gothel is the main antagonist of Tangled. Her actual age is around 400 years old, and due to this Gothel became obsessed with regaining her youth. She was ultimately forced to kidnap Rapunzel and raise her as her own at the cost of abandoning her birth daughter, Cassandra. Gothel mostly cares for her own vanity and while she brings out her maternal instincts, underneath it all she is a cruel and sinister woman who will not stop at anything to get what she wants.

Mother Gothel is voiced by Donna Murphy in all forms of media.^[3]

Sideburns and Patchy Stabbington are unrelenting twin criminals. They are recognized by their tall intimidating appearances, scarred features and orange hair. As their names imply, one has noticeable sideburns and wears a green tunic and leather arm bands while one has an eye patch and black leather tunic with long sleeves. While both are credited, only Sideburns actually speaks while Patchy is silent. They first appear in Tangled; having teamed up with Flynn Rider (Eugene Fitzherbert) to steal the royal tiara from Corona. Eugene betrays the two and they are captured by the royal guards. They manage to escape and plot revenge, only to run into Mother Gothel who hires the two of them to not only get back at Eugene, but also to get Rapunzel. She of course betrays the two and they are captured once again. They briefly appear in Tangled Forever After where they have apparently reformed, though still imprisoned, and are in attendance of Eugene and Rapunzel's wedding, bawling during the reception.

The Stabbington Brothers appear in Tangled: The Series, which chronologically takes before Tangled Forever After. They once again try to get their revenge on Eugene, this time with Cassandra also caught in the middle, but are defeated and reimprisoned.^[5] They next appear on a prison ship alongside other criminals that Rapunzel and Eugene have faced in the past. Together, they try to kill Eugene and Maximus after they accidentally end up on their ship, but Rapunzel and her allies arrive and defeat them.^[6] Due to their constant defeats, the Stabbington Brothers start to be viewed as jokes by the criminal community and once again plot to kill Eugene. This time, they kidnap Eugene's father, King Edmund, but are once again defeated, but then rescued by Eugene. The two are surprised that Eugene would do such a thing despite their animosity towards him, implying that this act is what causes them to reform.^[7] In "No Time Like the Past", the Stabbington Brothers are revealed to have known Eugene and Lance Strongbow since they were teenagers and it is implied that they were the ones to induct them into a life of thievery. The events of the past are slightly muddled for them however as Rapunzel and Pascal had traveled back in time due to a magical hourglass that also allowed them to take over their bodies. Due to their influence, the Stabbingtons indirectly teach Eugene to be much more selfless.^[8]

The Captain of the Guards is the unnamed head of the Coronan guards. He is a tall, well-built man usually adorned in gold armor and helmet and sporting a mustache. He is loyal to the Kingdom of Corona and is well disciplined. In Tangled, he has almost made it his whole career to chase down Flynn Rider who'd become a notorious thief in the area. He manages to finally capture Flynn, now going by his real name Eugene, and was ready to send him to the gallows, but is thwarted by the Pub Thugs who knock him out and rescue Eugene. He is not seen again for the rest of the film.

The Captain gets more development in Tangled: The Series, where he is revealed to have an adopted daughter named Cassandra, a handmaiden who wishes to be a guard. Despite her being heavily qualified for the position, something which he identifies, the Captain is overly concerned for her and wants to protect her.^[10] However, he still is at odds with Eugene due to their past relationship and was heavily against him becoming a member of the guards. Over time, he does become more accepting of him.^[11] In the season one finale "Secret of the Sun Drop", the Captain discovers that Cassandra was indirectly responsible for Rapunzel's current condition. He does not speak out against King Frederic's decision to have her sent to a convent; something he deeply regrets and causes a rift between the two. They make up when Varian attacks Corona and he finally sees her as a capable woman and potential soldier.^[12]

The Captain does not return until season three. In "Rapunzel's Return", a flashback reveals that he and his guards where close to capturing Mother Gothel after she had kidnapped Rapunzel, but lost her. He instead finds Cassandra (who is revealed to be Gothel's biological daughter) and adopts her as his own after she was abandoned by her mother; unlike Gothel, who did not love Cassandra, the Captain did truly love her. In the present, he sent out a search party to look for Rapunzel after the Separatists of Saporia take over the kingdom. By the time Rapunzel, Eugene, and their friends return, he is still gone.^[13] Following an encounter with Cassandra and learning of her turn to evil, he is revealed to have ended up on Terapi Islands, the home of the Lorbs. He uses one of the Lorb artifacts to bring to life a four-year-old version of Cassandra to raise without all of his current regrets. Rapunzel and her friends arrive and learn that the longer the wish stays, the worse it becomes. The Captain, after seeing that the young Cassandra had no shadow and realizing that she isn't real, ultimately chooses to move on and destroys his wish; returning to Corona to resume his place.^[14] Following a nightmare about confronting Cassandra, the Captain steps down from his position and hands his title over to Eugene, having fully accepted him as a hero.^[15] After Cassandra is redeemed, the Captain reunites and makes amends with her while seeing her off to venture the world. It is heavily implied that Cassandra had accepted him as her true parent.^[16]

King Frederic is the father of Rapunzel and the King of Corona. When his wife became sick late into her pregnancy, he ordered his guards to look for "a miracle" to save his wife. They found the sundrop flower and his wife was cured in time to give birth to a daughter. One night, the infant was stolen by Mother Gothel and King Frederic sent out his guards, but were unsuccessful. For the next eighteen years, Frederic and Arianna held a festival in honor of their missing daughter, by launching lanterns into the sky, in the hopes that she will one day see them. Frederic and Arianna were shocked when Eugene Fitzherbert, formally criminal Flynn Rider, showed up one day to present their daughter, Rapunzel, now fully grown and hugged them. Frederic returns in Tangled Ever After where he got to walk his daughter down the aisle of her wedding. Frederic was completely silent in the film and the short.

Frederic returns in Tangled: Before Ever After and its follow up Tangled: The Series which takes place six months after the film, but before the short film. Frederic is glad to have Rapunzel back, but is over protective of her and has a wall erected around the kingdom. Frederic becomes the target of notorious pirate Lady Caine. He is rescued by Rapunzel who managed to cross the wall with Cassandra and regained her long, glowing hair. While thankful for being saved, Frederic solemnly passes a new law preventing Rapunzel from leaving without his consent. Following this, the two refuse to speak with one another.^[18] He finally does speak to his daughter, showing her that despite his severe protection of her, he still loves her.^[19] He resorts to lying to his daughter about the black rocks in the hopes of deterring her from reassembling the graphtic scroll used to explain the sundrop and moonstone.^[20] Frederic begins to regret his actions against his daughter when she compares him to Mother Gothel, made worse by the fact that he still has the sundrop flower.^[21] When Arianna is kidnapped by a vengeful Varian, Frederic finally comes to terms with his actions and teams up with Rapunzel while Eugene, Cassandra, Lance and the people of Corona fight against Varian's automatons. He finally accepts Rapunzel's independence and allows her to leave the kingdom to follow the black rocks.^[12]

Frederic and Arianna are completely absent from the second season, title Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure, but make quick appearances in "Happiness Is..." and "Rapunzeltopia", both as part of hallucinations that preyed on Rapunzel's hopes and desires.^[22][23]

When Rapunzel, Eugene and their friends return to Corona, they are shocked to find that in their absence, Frederic and Arianna were hit with amnesia by an escaped Varian who had teamed up with Andrew and the Separatists of Saporia in an effort to overthrow the kingdom. They act completely aloof and do not seem to realize that they are in danger.^[13] In "The King and Queen of Hearts", Frederic and Arianna try to remember their relationship with one another as they have also forgotten what made them fall in love to begin with. Frederic is shown to be something of a bore as the only thing he seems interested in is collecting eggs. Rapunzel finally forces the two on a date and upon seeing their daughter's qualities in each other slowly begin to fall back in love. This is almost ruined by King Trevor, who had pined for Arianna's affection in their youth. After another high stakes adventure, Frederic and Arianna begin to remember their life together more.^[24] By the episode "Islands Apart", Frederic is shown to have regained practically all of his memories.^[14] Eventually, he joins the final battle to defend Corona and fight Zhan Tiri while also witnessing Cassandra's reformation.

Queen Arianna is the mother of Rapunzel and the Queen of Corona. Arianna was expecting a daughter, but became incredibly sick and was facing possible death. She was saved by her royal guards when they found the sundrop flower and turned it into a soup for her to drink. She recovered and gave birth to a baby girl named Rapunzel. She was devastated when her daughter was kidnapped in the night by Mother Gothel and further hurt when they could not find her. For the next eighteen years, Frederic and Arianna held a festival in honor of their missing daughter, by launching lanterns into the sky, in the hopes that she will one day see them. Frederic and Arianna were shocked when Eugene Fitzherbert, formally criminal Flynn Rider, showed up one day to present their daughter, Rapunzel, now fully grown and hugged them. Arianna was completely silent in the film. Arianna returns in Tangled Ever After, attending her daughter's wedding. She speaks, albeit in Max and Pascal's fantasy, where she reveals that the rings belonged to her grandmother.

Arianna returns in Tangled: Before Ever After and its follow up Tangled: The Series which takes place six months after the film, but before the short film. She mostly takes a supporting role in various episodes. She does provide Rapunzel with a journal with a written phrase in it stating "Plus Est En Vous", meaning "More is in You"; giving her the motivation needed to feel empowered. It is revealed that Arianna has a younger sister named Wilhelmina "Willow" who is more adventurous than her. As a matter of fact, much of her sister's personality is more akin to Rapunzel than to her. Furthermore, she had a somewhat crippling eagerness to impress those around her, which would result in her taking any dare that Willow threw her way. Her sister's appearance conflicts with her and Rapunzel's plan for her birthday. Ultimately, the siblings make up with one another.^[26]

Arianna and Frederic are completely absent from the second season, title Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure, but make quick appearances in "Happiness Is..." and "Rapunzeltopia", both as part of hallucinations that preyed on Rapunzel's hopes and desires.^[22][23]

When Rapunzel, Eugene and their friends return to Corona, they are shocked to find that in their absence, Arianna and Frederic were hit with amnesia by an escaped Varian who had teamed up with Andrew and the Separatists of Saporia in an effort to overthrow the kingdom. They act completely aloof and do not seem to realize that they are in danger.^[13] In "The King and Queen of Hearts", Arianna and Frederic try to remember their relationship with one another as they have also forgotten what made them fall in love to begin with. Arianna is shown to be very adventurous and enjoys things like horseback riding. Rapunzel finally forces the two on a date and upon seeing their daughter's qualities in each other slowly begin to fall back in love. This is almost ruined by King Trevor, who had pined for Arianna's affection in their youth. After another high stakes adventure, Arianna and Frederic begin to remember their life together more.^[24] By the episode "Islands Apart", Frederic implies that Arianna has regained all of her memories.^[14] Eventually, she joins the final battle to defend Corona and fight Zhan Tiri while also witnessing Cassandra's reformation.

• Hook Hand (voiced by Brad Garrett)^[27] is a big, bald man with a hook for a hand. He wishes to be a concert pianist despite his missing limb. He succeeds and begins to go on tour making him completely absent from the series.^[18] He eventually returns in "The Brothers Hook" where he hypocritically looks down on his brother Hook Foot's dream of being a dancer. With Rapunzel's help, they ultimately make up and Hook Hand asks his brother to tour with him, to which he accepts. He is also the only pub thug that still dislikes Eugene.^[28]
• Big Nose (voiced by Jeffrey Tambor)^[29] is a goofy-looking thug with, as his name implies, a big nose. He sings that he has extra toes, a goiter, and apparently a really bad complexion.

• Attila Buckethead (voiced by Nathan Greno in the film and Steve Blum in the series)^[31] is a thug who wears a metal helmet that covers his face. He actually loves to bake and is a natural at it. The reason for his helmet is that he is "repugnant" underneath, but also really shy. He was kicked out of the kingdom after being accused of blowing up Monty's candy store, but thanks to Rapunzel was proven innocent.^[32] while Eugene, Cassandra, Lance and the people of Corona fight against Varian's automatons.^[12] Eventually, he joins the final battle to defend Corona and fight Zhan Tiri.^[16]
• Shorty (voiced by Paul F. Tompkins)^[33] is a short, white-bearded thug who always seems to be in a state of inebriation.

Cassandra is a major character in Tangled: Before Ever After and Tangled: The Series, later retitled Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure. She was created by Chris Sonnenburg when he was trying to answer the question "What is it that Rapunzel NEEDS in her life?" He began to look at his daughters and the way they interacted with each other and their friends. That, combined with an old concept drawing of Queen Arianna from an early version of the movie where she was a "Joan of Arc" type, led to the creation of Cassandra.^[36] Early concept art had the character presented as a slightly younger archer Robin Hood type.^[37]

As a contrast from Rapunzel and Eugene, Cassandra, or Cass for short, is a no-nonsense, tough individual that had a very disciplined upbringing. Her first meeting with Rapunzel is established in "Beginnings" where she had the chance to join the royal guard for the Queen of Ingvarr, but upon realizing how much she cared about Rapunzel, chose to give up her opportunity to serve her.^[38] She first appears in Tangled: Before Ever After as Rapunzel's lady-in-waiting. On the side, she is a knight in training for her adopted father, the Captain of the Guards. Seeing how Rapunzel felt miserable not being allowed to leave Corona, Cassandra steps up and takes her out beyond the walls to the spot where the sundrop flower once stood; now coated in black rocks. The rocks bring Rapunzel's long, glowing hair back with Cassandra concerned for her job. She forces Rapunzel not to tell Eugene about it, though he finds out anyway, and later coerces her to not explain how it came back as she does not trust Eugene and also so that she can keep her job, though once again he finds out.^[18]

Cassandra spends much of season one trying to prove her worth to her father by partaking in various challenges. During this time, her relationship with Rapunzel is explored as Cass feels that she cannot take care of herself. However, the two end up developing a close bond with one another.^[39] She also has a habit of getting into petty arguments with Eugene, whom she is not afraid to talk down to and insult. Despite this, the two of them do care about one another.^[5] She also befriends the young alchemist Varian who is implied to have a crush on her. However, these feelings are never reciprocated most likely due to their age.^[10] Frederic eventually discovers Cassandra's part in Rapunzel's hair returning and she is forced to be sent to a convent; upsetting her as her father fails to defend her actions. He does eventually come around and Cass once again helps Rapunzel and Eugene save the kingdom from a vengeful Varian.^[12]

Cassandra joins Rapunzel and her allies in following the black rocks to the Dark Kingdom. They also encounter Adira who follows them, but leaves Cass highly suspicious of her.^[34] During the journey, Cass begins to feel that she is doing nothing, but "waiting in the wings" for Rapunzel, especially when she begins to scold her friend for not trusting her decisions. A fight with a warrior named Hector forces Rapunzel to enact the reverse incantation which slowly kills everything around them. When Cass tries to stop Rapunzel, her arm gets completely scorched by the spell. Afterward, Cass dons a suit of leftover armor and takes a more hardened facade.^[40] After being forced to stay at a strange inn due to a severe storm,^[41] Cass and the group find themselves facing strange supernatural threats. Cass is lead away by the group and enters a strange room. After defeating the owner of the inn, Tromus, the inn disappears and Cass exits in one piece, but disoriented.^[23] Upon finally reaching the Dark Kingdom and being allowed entrance to the Moonstone, Cass suddenly takes it from Rapunzel to fulfill "her" destiny. Taking on a dark sinister look with glowing blue hair, Cass turns on her friends.^[42]

In the season three premiere, it is revealed that Cassandra is the biological daughter of Mother Gothel (which would technically make Rapunzel her stepsister), having presumably been unintended. Cass openly showed love and devotion to her despite clearly not getting any love in return. On the night that Rapunzel was kidnapped by Gothel, she is abandoned, but then found by the Captain, who promises to look after her. While Gothel pretended to love Cassandra but really considered her a "lousy pest", the Captain did love her for real. In the present, she escapes Rapunzel in the hopes of finding her own destiny.^[13] She is accompanied by the spirit of a little girl who has sinister plans for her.^[7] Cass encounters the Captain and criticizes him for lying to her this whole time.^[14] She soon crashes Eugene's birthday party and demands the scroll. A reformed Varian destroys his translation key, but he is abducted after he reveals that he memorized it. Despite his pleas about becoming a villain, Cass refuses to listen so she ultimately traps him inside a cage then she sends the caged Varian outside on a precipice at the top of the tower to hang helplessly when she fights Rapunzel. Their combined powers causes the Enchanted Girl to regain her physical form.^[43] Afterwards, Cass and the Enchanted Girl break into the Spire and steal the Mind Trap to take control of the members of the Brotherhood from the Dark Kingdom.^[44] Cass reencounters Rapunzel after they hear of Mother Gothel's ghost haunting the old house. While it seems that the two of them will make up, Cass is convinced that Mother Gothel truly loved her and once again abandons Rapunzel.^[45] She later learns the truth and discovers that the Enchanted Girl is the evil demon sorceress Zhan Tiri. Disguising herself as Rapunzel's new handmaiden that is named Faith, Cass attempts to make amends with Rapunzel. However, upon being outed and realizing how everyone sees her, Cass turns on all of Corona and takes over the kingdom, forcing everyone out.^[46] Cass and Rapunzel face off again with Zhan Tiri taking advantage and removing both of their powers. Realizing where they have gone, Cass and Rapunzel finally make up with Cass using a small piece of the Moonstone to empower Rapunzel long enough for them to defeat Zhan Tiri once and for all. Cass finally makes amends with everyone, including her adopted father (whom she apparently accepts as her true parent), and bids Rapunzel farewell, now traveling the world to look for a new destiny.^[16]

Varian is a young 14-year-old alchemist who lives in Old Corona with his father Quirin. He is enlisted by Cassandra to study Rapunzel's hair after it mysteriously grew back from the black rocks. They ultimately have to put their experimentation to the side when a machine he had been working on, that would have created a heated water system, begins to overheat and threatens to blow up. While nobody is harmed, his father is disappointed in him not taking precaution.^[18] Later, he enters a science expo to show off his invention to the famous Doctor St. Croix. He is revealed to have something of a crush on Cassandra and relies on her to help him out. After a series of conflicting events, Varian is tasked by Rapunzel to study the black rocks that have been found all around Corona.^[10] In "Queen for a Day", Varian discovers that Quirin has been lying to King Frederic about the rocks, he decides to create a concoction to combat the rocks. Unfortunately, the concoction creates a quickly encompassing amber that gets on Quirin. Varian rushes to the castle to ask Rapunzel for help, but a wintery storm has just hit the kingdom but Nigel wants Pete and Stan to remove Varian from inside the castle. Returning home to find his father encased inside the amber and feeling that Rapunzel has betrayed him, Varian selfishly swears revenge on her and everyone.^[48] Months later, when he learns that Corona still has the flower, he recruits Rapunzel to steal it. He reveals his true plot to steal the flower. However, the flower fails to free Quirin from the amber and he realizes that the magic is solely inside Rapunzel now.^[21] Driving a giant robot, Varian attempts to force Rapunzel to use her unbreakable magic hair to shatter the amber and free his father by abducting Queen Arianna. The magic fails to work and Varian ends up attacking Rapunzel and trying to murder both Queen Arianna and Cassandra. Rapunzel eventually defeats Varian but he is arrested and when he is sent to prison, he still wants to make his dad proud of him.^[12]

Varian is completely absent throughout the second season. However, he does make a brief cameo appearance in "Happiness Is..." as a hallucination brought upon Rapunzel when she holds the Idol of Vershaftsbezeigungengien.^[22] He is also mentioned by Adira as the son of Quirin in "Rapunzel and the Great Tree".^[40]

He returns in the season three premiere "Rapunzel's Return" where he has teamed up with Andrew and the Separatists of Saporia to overthrow the kingdom. Using the Saporian Wand of Oblivium, they wiped the memories of King Frederic and Queen Arianna and fight Rapunzel and her friends. However, Varian reveals that he hoped to use the wand's abilities to create a gas called Quirineon, after his father, and use it on all of Corona so that they can forget his past misdeeds. He teams back up with Rapunzel and defeat the Separatists. Rapunzel recited the decay incantation to free Quirin from the amber and succeeds and then Rapunzel and Varian reconcile their friendship .^[13] Since then, Varian has tried to restore the memories of Rapunzel's parents.^[24] This has proven difficult as the citizens of Corona still do not trust him because of his misdeeds. Following a bout of red rocks that induce fear in everyone, Varian uses his amber solution to encase the single black rock at the Demanitus Chamber and is hailed a hero.^[49] Varian starts to translate the Graphtic Scroll to learn more about the Sundrop and Moonstone. He memorizes it, but then destroys the translation key that Cassandra needs. Cassandra takes Varian, who is forced to tell her the incantation. He tries to talk sense into her by empathizing with her because he was on the same path of darkness and hatred that she is currently on. After Zhan Tiri entered Varian's dream, Varian learns the hidden incantation.^[43] He quickly gets to work, creating a defense system against Cassandra,^[15] despite still empathizing with her while he and Eugene worked on Project Obsidian to encase Cassandra if she harms him, Eugene, Rapunzel and the people of Corona.^[46] Eventually, Varian joins the final battle to defend Corona and fight Zhan Tiri. He builds the machine Demantus used to trap Zhan Tiri Years ago but ends up trapping himself and the others in the lost realm except Eugene and King Edmund. He ends up getting out thanks to his father, Quirin. He also witnessed Cassandra's reformation. In the epilogue, Varian is given the title of the royal engineer and finally creates a water heating system, which he has wanted to do since the first episode, making Corona the first of seven kingdoms to have it.^[16]

Arnwaldo Schnitz (better known as Lance Strongbow) is a former thief and childhood friend of Eugene Fitzherbert. Initially based on Star Wars character Lando Calrissian,^[51] Lance is a charming, good-natured thief who can occasionally be boastful and over dramatic. In "No Time Like the Past", Lance is established as having become a thief, presumably through the Stabbington Brothers.^[8] He first appears in "The Return of Strongbow" where he is reunited with his childhood friend Eugene. He convinces him to join him in stealing treasure from an old enemy of theirs, the Baron, by claiming that it was bestowed upon him. This turns out to be a lie and later Lance tries to help Eugene with returning a ring that belonged to Queen Arianna that they had stolen a long time ago. In the end, everything is resolved and Lance ends up donating money to the local Corona orphanage, though he keeps some for himself.^[52] Since then, Lance begins making recurring appearances, mostly as a comedic foil. He gets some attention in "Big Brothers of Corona" when Lance tries to help him get a job at the castle as a guard. To prove themselves, they are tasked with looking after two little girls whom they call Angry and Red. While they are unable to change their thieving ways, they do get them to return some of the treasure that they stole and Lance decides to instead be the chef at the Snuggly Duckling.^[53] In the season one finale, he concocts a plan to free Rapunzel from her room and then aids in battling a vengeful Varian.^[12]

In season two, titled Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure, Lance joins Rapunzel, Eugene, Cassandra, Hook Foot and Shorty on their journey to the Dark Kingdom. They run into the Baron who poisons Lance so that Eugene can marry his daughter Stalyan. He is saved and falls in love with the mysterious warrior Adira. However, his feelings are never reciprocated.^[34] In "Rapunzel and the Great Tree", Eugene tells Lance that he is a dishonest and vain individual which would make it impossible for Adira to like someone like him. They end up getting drugged by man eating plants while singing the song "Buddy" and make up with one another.^[40] He joins his friends in entering the Dark Kingdom and fights off the ghosts of Eugene's ancestors.^[42]

Lance returns with his friends to Corona, sans Cassandra, and helps out in fighting off the Separatists of Saporia and reforming Varian.^[13] Lance spends the majority of the third and final season filling out a supporting role and adding lighthearted humor to the more serious and darker story. In "Be Very Afraid", he is revealed to suffer from a very specific fear of clown-spiders. He manages to summon the courage to sing "Bigger Than That", allowing everyone to overcome their fears and defeat the red rocks that were inducing them.^[49] He comedically gets in the way of a Varian's newest invention of a defense system for Corona against Cassandra.^[15] Lance is also present in the final battle against Zhan Tiri. After defeating her and all is restored, while also witnessing Cassandra's reformation. In the epilogue, Lance decides to adopt Angry and Red.^[16]

Kiera and Catalina Schnitz are two girls and sisters who are recurring characters. They first appear in "Big Brothers of Corona" where the two begin thieving all over the kingdom, but are soon caught. They initially refused to speak, forcing Eugene and Lance to call the duo "Angry", because of her curt demeanor, and "Red", because of her orange-red hair and nicer personality. The two are taken to Rapunzel and soon they begin to open up. Even though they steal for a living, they do not want to. It is soon revealed that they were to steal a tiara for the Baron, but chose to run away. They are captured by Anthony the Weasel, who works for the Baron, but Eugene and Lance arrive and rescue them, with Kiera and Catalina rescuing them back in return. They give up all of their stolen items and leave Corona.^[53]

They do not return until the season two episode "Vigor the Visionary" where they kidnap the titular Vigor, a monkey, because he might know where their parents are based on his premonition "Follow the leaf to find your tree". They discover a couple named Petunia and William who welcome them with open arms. However, it turns out that the couple are actually the daylight thieves and they plan on disposing Rapunzel, Eugene, Angry and Red so as not to give up their hideout. They manage to defeat them and Angry and Red realize that the premonition meant that the two of them are family and embrace. They return Vigor to his owner, Madame Canardist, and leave Rapunzel and Eugene to pay for her "services".^[56] Angry and Red are mentioned by Rapunzel in "Curses"

In season three, Kiera and Catalina , now visibly older, decide to move into Corona permanently. Their real names are finally revealed to be Kiera and Catalina, respectively with the latter being referred to for the remainder of the series. Catalina is revealed to not want to move out of their tree house and was upset over the fact that no one considered her the angry one because of all of her penned up emotions.

With no other options, he sent his finest warriors Quirin and Adira to flee the kingdom with his people.^[34] After his wife perished, he took his infant son, christened Horace, but later would grow up as Eugene Fitzherbert and eventually Flynn Rider, and had a servant take him far away and placed in an orphanage.

When Varian destroys the Graphtic scroll's translation key, having memorized it, they abducted him. Zhan Tiri goes behind Cass' back by telling Varian how to unlock the powers. With Rapunzel and Cass using their full energy, Zhan Tiri is brought back in physical form, albeit still as a child.^[43] Zhan Tiri and Cass head back to the Spire and kidnap Calliope and force her to give them the Mind Trap to use against the Brotherhood. She confronts Rapunzel in private and reveals her identity as well as the fact that she is using Cass.^[44] Zhan Tiri resorts to tricky methods to further drive a wedge between Cass and Rapunzel.^[45] Afterwards, she reveals her identity to Cass, but tells them that it will not matter. Once again, she manipulates events so that Cass can further turn to evil.^[46] In a flashback, Zhan Tiri was revealed to once have been friends with Demanitus until she became corrupted by a desire to have the powers of the Sundrop and Moonstone all to herself and was banished to the Lost Realm.
