Characters
The teenage Jewels Riders trio consist of Gwenevere / Starla (voiced by Kerry Butler in the first season and Jean Louisa Kelly in the second season), whose Special Friend is the pegasus Sunstar, and her friends: Fallon (voiced by Laura Dean), riding Moondance the unicorn, and Tamara (voiced by Debra Allison), who in the second season gets the zebracorn Shadowsong. Each of their Jewels has different magical abilities and their own colors and corresponding gemstones of various powers, also allowing them to communicate with their animals.
The princess and her friends are aided by the Merlin's talking owl named Archie. In their missions, the Jewel Riders are also sometimes aided by the Pack, led by Gwen's wannabe boyfriend Drake. In the second season, a relatively major character comes into the story. Ian, the werewolf princes of the Forest of Arden.
The series' main antagonist is initially the outlaw sorceress Lady Kale (voiced by Corinne Orr), Gwen's evil aunt, aided by her dragon Grimm and a duo of Dweasels, the small minion creatures named Rufus and Twig. The prime enemy in the second season is the powerful Morgana, Kale being reduced to the grudging sidekick of Morgana. The two villainesses do have a clash of egos, but the powerful, elf-like Morgana comes out on top.

Famous quotes containing the word characters:
“I have often noticed that after I had bestowed on the characters of my novels some treasured item of my past, it would pine away in the artificial world where I had so abruptly placed it.”

“My characters never die screaming in rage. They attempt to pull themselves back together and go on. And that’s basically a conservative view of life.”
—Jane Smiley (b. 1949)
“It is open to question whether the highly individualized characters we find in Shakespeare are perhaps not detrimental to the dramatic effect. The human being disappears to the same degree as the individual emerges.”
