Knights In every episode a new knight (or lady knight for females) that ranged from a warrior to a scientist, appears and swears to slay or snare the dragon or make it domestic in some way, generally, in return for the hand of Melody the Princess or other forms of reward. They usually end up fighting against Hugo or being chased out of the kingdom.
Melody Melody, the princess, loves the dragon, and if anything happens to it her love with Riri will end, so she thwarts plans to kill the dragon. Almost all knights offer to marry her, at which she either falls into a trance of joy or acts disgusted. The princess wears a pink outfit and a crown that is smoother than the king's. Voiced by Carrien Finlay
Riri Riri is the court jester, who loves Melody and thwarts plans to kill the dragon. He is the hero of the show. Mark Hauser plays him.
Juju Juju is a child living in the castle who helps Riri, but is easily upset and moody. Voiced by Annie Bovaird
Dragon The dragon lives peacefully in the kingdom, but because he has a hatred of crowns finds himself uncontrollably willing to flame breathe Hugo into a pile of living ashes every time they meet. Voiced by Mark Camache
Merlin Merlin is the king's loyal practitioner of magic. This wizard's spells and potions usually don't work and they end up exploding in Hugo's face. Merlin frequently helps the princess, Riri and Juju to help save the dragon. Voiced by John Vamvas
Roger the Talking Carrot Roger is a carrot that advices the knight on how to defeat the dragon. He has no other use to the story other than revealing weaknesses in the dragon, and perhaps a tasty snack if he upsets the knight. Voiced by John Locke

Famous quotes containing the word characters:
“White Pond and Walden are great crystals on the surface of the earth, Lakes of Light.... They are too pure to have a market value; they contain no muck. How much more beautiful than our lives, how much more transparent than our characters are they! We never learned meanness of them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Animals are stylized characters in a kind of old saga—stylized because even the most acute of them have little leeway as they play out their parts.”
—Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)
“When the characters are really alive before their author, the latter does nothing but follow them in their action, in their words, in the situations which they suggest to him.”
—Luigi Pirandello (1867–1936)
