Characters
Skipper: Skipper has the heart of an action hero and the swagger to match. He's a natural leader with a single-minded focus on results. Skipper approaches every situation with intensity, which may explain his overly active imagination. To Skipper, every innocent coincidence appears to be a nefarious conspiracy. It's a good thing that he's 100% confident that only his team is capable of finding the truth!
Kowalski: When Skipper needs analysis or an immediate invention, Kowalski is there with his crayon, notebook and slightly skewed scientific method. Kowalski's authorative attitude covers up the fact that he usually doesn't have a clue about what's happening. Even though Kowalski is a self-proclaimed scientific mastermind, he doesn't read English any better than the rest of the penguins!
Rico: Rico is the ultimate loose cannon and has (literally) internalized his role as demolitions expert. He has an entire munitions department in his gut and the remarkable ability to 'Retrieve' on demand the appropriate bomb or any number of useful items: Can opener? Fishing poll? 10,000 ball bearings? Bass guitar? Got it...
Private: Private is a bit fuzzy on who he is and his role in the group. Since he is not so sure of himself, Private is completely open to new experience. The zoo can be a rough place (especially the Reptile House) and Private is a little too obviously naive for his own good. Private's openness makes him the most likely to party with the lemurs for better or worse...
King Julien: King Julien is the zoo's self-appointed monarch and the ultimate party animal. This spoiled boy King likes to order everyone around and he would be completely intolerable if not for his insistence that everyone have fun! King Julien's towering ego more than makes up for his pint-sized body. He's quick with an insult, but even quicker with a smile, so it's hard for anyone to take this lemur too seriously.
Maurice: Maurice is King Julien's Long-suffering Sergeant-at-arms, who's sick of pretending that he's happy to cater to King Julien's crazy whims. He does his best to keep King Julien from getting totally out of control. Maurice may be surrounding by completely crazy creatures, but he's a realist. He knows the score too bad no one is asking him for it!
Mort: Mort is King Julien's #1 fan and hopeless devotee. Nothing gives Mort a greater thrill than touching King Julien's feet. To prove his worth to King Julien, Mort hatches crazy schemes that always makes things worse. Mort's fluff ball cuteness, big eyes and falsetto voice make him irresistible to all humans. To the animals in the zoo, however, these characteristics make him incredibly annoying, and they avoid him at all costs!
Marlene: An otter originally from Northern California. Marlene is still adjusting to her new life in Manhattan. Fiercely independent, Marlene has decided not to choose sides between the Penguins and the Lemurs. In fact, she finds herself agreeing with Skipper as often as she agrees with King Julien. Marlene's playful spirit often clashes with Skipper's organization and discipline, but that doesn't hurt!
Dr. Blowhole: Dr. Blowhole is one diabolical dolphin. This marine mammal is determined to rule the world. With a love of high-end technology and fresh fish, he wants nothing more than to defeat the penguins, especially his nemesis Skipper. Humanity made him jump through one too many hoops, and now he's determined to make them pay with his mad science and army of crustacean cronies!
