Madame Mim

 * Affably Evil: Is cheerful, amiable, and actually pretty friendly when Arthur blunders into her house, and while he can tell she's unpleasant, he doesn't even realize she's dangerous until she tells him she has to kill him which she says with about as much fanfare as someone saying it's suddenly started raining.
 * For the Evulz
 * Bad Is Good and Good Is Bad:
 * Bad Is Good and Good Is Bad:

Madame Mim

 * I suppose Merlin sees some good in you.

Arthur

 * I suppose so...

Madame Mim
Even Merlin can't help riffing on this: "You should recover in a few weeks, and be as good... I mean, uh, as bad as ever!"
 * Yes, and in my book, that's bad!


 * Loophole Abuse: During the Wizards' Dual.
 * Villain Song: "The Magnificent, Marvelous, Mad Madame Mim."

Sir Ector
A description of the character goes here.

* Ector does take Arthur's side over Kay's at least once. At the start of the film, he's actually berating Kay for letting Arthur go off into the woods by himself. * Society also played a role in this. To be a knight in that period, you must be of noble birth. Kay is, Arthur isn't, so of course Kay gets all the combat training and respect. Playing second fiddle to him as a squire is literally the best Arthur could hope for by law.
 * Trope
 * Muggle Foster Parents: To Arthur/Wart.
 * Parental Favoritism: Ector's partiality to Kay is somewhat justified by the fact that Arthur/Wart is only his foster child. While he could probably stand to be nicer to Arthur, he's not really mean either... more just strict and demanding, which seems to be his personality in general. Kay may be the favorite, but Wart at least isn't The Unfavourite.

Sir Kay

 * Jerkass
 * Jerk Jock: Albeit the medieval version (meaning swordplay and jousting instead of football).
 * Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Is implied to have at least a few gold flecks once in a while. At the end when his father demands he bow to Arthur, Kay does so sullenly at first... then after actually looking at him, does so sincerely.

Girl squirrel
A cute red female squirrel that runs into the squirrel transformed Wart, and falls in love with him. Is left heartbroken when she see Wart turning back to human.


 * Action Girl: Saves Squirrel-Arthur from the wolf by biting it's hint leg and lure it to run off a cliff.
 * Love Hurts: One of the most heartbreaking examples. She really loved Arthur and immediately starts sobbing in confusion and grief when he reveals himself to be human.
 * May-December Romance: Subverted, fortunately or unfortunately. The poor girl squirrel who is at best a teenager in human years has no idea that the squirrel she has fallen for is actually a prepubescent twelve year old boy.
 * Stalker with a Crush
 * Star-Crossed Lovers: With Squirrel-Arthur, although it's a pretty one-sided romance.

Sir Bart

 * Authority Equals Asskicking: Seem to have the authority over the tournament, since he was able to halt it upon seeing that someone has pulled out the Sword in the Stone.
 * Dark Is Not Evil: Black hair, black beard and wears a black armor, but is fair and demands that Wart get a chance to pull out the sword.
