Juniper's younger brother. Can also see magical creatures as well and most of the time tags along with her much to her chagrin. Voiced by Kath Soucie

  • Annoying Younger Sibling: And how.
  • Be Careful What You Wish For: He frequently complains how he doesn't have any magical powers and wishes he could fight monsters too. He gets his wish in one episode due to a space time malfuction caused by time wraiths, hes made the Te Xaun Ze since June never existed in that timeline. And quickly finds out first hand her job not as easy as it looks.
  • Contagious Powers: Somewhat, when the monsters that were attacking June tried to suck out her powers as she was just coming into them. Ray Ray interrupted the transfer and some of the power got implanted in him. Hence why he can see and communicate with magical creatures. Ah-Mah hints he may have gotten other magical powers too, but nothing is really shown of it.
  • Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: He may be a hyperactive child but when he gets focused, he can be quite as competent, if not more so, then June.
  • Emergency Transformation: In one episode he takes a potion meant for a small giant. It winds up turning him into a dinosaur which June and Monroe don't know how to reverse. They end up having to make a homunculus body and transfer his brain into it.

  • Keet
  • Tagalong Kid: More or less. He does have his moments though.

Voiced by Tara Strong

Dennis Lee

June's older brother. Initially he had no clue of the magical on-goings of his house and would always be mind wiped if he stumbled upon such. However he became immune to the memory dust and was eventually let in on June's Te Xuan Ze duties, becoming an assent to her.

  • Pretty Fly for a White Guy
  • Spoiled Brat: He and his parents are actually quite wealthy. Though he's not really a brat so much as eccentric.

Loki: HELLO! Master of lies! How many times do I have to say it?!
