List of Mysticons characters

The Mysticons are four teenage girls whose destiny it is to use unique mystical powers and weaponry to defend the world of Gemina and its inhabitants from evil forces, namely the Spectral Hand. A generation of Mysticons is chosen once every thousand years by the ancient and powerful Dragon Disk. Their unique Mysticon abilities and weaponry become a hundred times greater and more effective when the Codex is combined into one larger spellbook, which happened to have been drained dry of its magic by Queen Necrafa herself. The second generation of legendary Mysticons are Arkayna Goodfey, Zarya Moonwolf, Piper Willowbrook, and Emerald Zirconia Goldenbraid. The Vexicons are four, dark female warriors called from the pages of Proxima's Dark Codex. They debut as shadowed cameos at the end of "Happily Never After", but make their full debut in "The Lost Scepter" where they race the Mysticons to find an ancient and immensely powerful mind-controlling scepter that belonged to one of Gemina's centuries-old child king. They are considered the dark counterparts of the Mysticons. They each have their own dark animal bracer to combat those of light wielded by the Mysticons- blue Snake, orange Panther, purple Bat and pink Basilisk.

In a last ditch effort to annihilate the Spectral Hand once and for all, the Mysticons had received four grown Dragons of Light after the dragon eggs went through the portal to the Ever Realm, where time flows faster. Each dragon is colored by each Mysticon's signature color: Princess Arkayna's dragon mount is a light green, Zarya's a pale blue, Piper's a light orange, and Emerald's light purple. Now astride these majestic and powerful creatures, the Mysticons had succeeded in firing their magnified bracers at the Spectral Hand, destroying it in one single strike. There's also the Astromancers, an ancient league of mages (sorcerers and sorceresses) who have protected Gemina. They reside at the Astromancer Academy. Those of the top level have a deep purple magical aura while mid-level Astromancers have a light orange magical aura. The Pink Skulls are a group of sky pirates who plunder and pillage whatever they find, and were founded several years prior when Zarya was a young orphan girl in Drake City. Then there's the Mer-Knights of the Silver Trident, fierce and brave mermaid/mermen warriors who possess the ancient and very powerful silver tridents of myth. According to Emerald, children's tales of them have been famous for many, many years. Apart from this, millennium ago, the ancient and mighty Dragons of Light had fought a fiercely violent final battle in their sacred homeland of Dragonhenge. Unfortunately, thousands had fallen and were thought to be extinct at the hand of one of the Spectral Dragons. Until a dragon egg was discovered by the second generation of Mysticons, which hatched an infant storm dragon whom Princess Arkayna decided to christen "Stormy" due to her weather-controlling abilities.

Also, four of the dozens of baby dragons that had resided in the yellow eggs, hidden secretly in a cave in Dragonhenge and had escaped total death and annihilation by the original Spectral Dragon. After going through the swirling portal to the Ever Realm, the four returned as adult full-fledged Dragons of Light instantaneously. Each one is colored in the Mysticons' signature color: Light green for Princess Arkayna, light blue for Zarya, pale orange for Piper, and pale purple for Emerald. They seem to have replaced the everlasting faithful griffin mounts- Izzie, Archer, Miss Paisley and Topaz- as the Mysticons are seen on the dragons backs in the last scene of the show.

• Princess Arkayna Goodfey (voiced by Alyson Court[lower-alpha 1][1]) – The eldest Princess Twin of Gemina and second Mysticon Dragon Mage, who is the fearless leader of the Mysticons. Her signature color is dark green and her symbol of mystical power is the dragon form the bright green Dragon Bracer. Her Mysticon weapon is a staff that emits powerful green fire and can erect a protective shield. Her griffin companion is named Izzie. She initially disliked learning of the original four Mysticons from her mother, the Queen. She demonstrated telekinetic skill by mentally levitating a construction and converting it into a ramp; her eyes glow white while utilizing this ability. She eventually learns that she has a fraternal twin sister who was believed to be Proxima Starfall, one of the top Astromancers' strongest star mages. Later it is revealed that the sarcastic Zarya is her true twin sister, though they both seemed to welcome Proxima into "the sisterhood" as their honorary twin. Her romantic interest is the talented mid-level Astromancer, Malvaron Grimm. She grew up playing with the royal griffins and relies on her honor, determination and ideals to always do the right thing. However, she is mostly oblivious to the feelings of others; namely Proxima's deeply hurt feelings of betrayal and greater sense of loneliness and desertion towards her for never actually being there for her after learning that Zarya was her real twin sister. As Mysticon Dragon Mage, she can emit and control green fire, create objects like curtains and a bush for camouflage out of thin air, and erect a green force-field from her Dragon Mage staff.
• Zarya Moonwolf (voiced by Nicki Burke[2][3]) – Chosen as the second Mysticon Ranger, she is thought to be an "orphaned pauper" who does her best to help other poor kids on the street, often acting as a big sister to them and Piper. She is wily and tough with a roguish charm. Her signature color is dark blue and her symbol of mystical power is the wolf. Her weapon is a shortbow from which she fires an array of mystical arrows. She is known as "the muscle" of the group. She first named her griffin "Stinky" because of his breath, but later renamed him "Archer". She is expelled from the team in "Scourge of the Seven Skies" and heads off alone. Her bracer and large blue book of Codex spells falls into the possession of Dreadbane who corrupts her bright blue Wolf Bracer. She eventually succeeds in getting them back. She temporarily replaces Arkayna as leader but refuses to take the position permanently. It is revealed that she had been the lost youngest twin princess and Arkayna's fraternal twin sister, having been left at Hortensia Sparklebottom's fairy orphanage for the first three years of her life, the very same place where Proxima was left at also as a newborn fifteen years previously. Series creator Sean Jara confirmed that she is in a relationship with her best childhood friend the captain of the pink skulls, Kitty Boon, a relationship supported by the show's director, Matt Ferguson. Her special abilities as Mysticon Ranger are never revealed as there are not enough episodes.
• Piper Willowbrook (voiced by Ana Sani[4][5][6]) – An elf orphan who, along with Zarya, works to help fellow poor people in Drake City. She is Mysticon Striker. She is optimistic, energetic and fun-loving. Her signature colors are shades of yellow and blue and her symbol of mystical power is the phoenix. Her weapons are three yellow chakrams that act as boomerangs strong to render enemies unconscious from a distance. In addition, she can create sparkly yellow orbs which she calls her "pixie blast" and is the only power shown by Mysticon Striker, as there is not enough episodes. Her griffin companion is named Miss Paisley, after a lost stuffed toy. She is known as "the party bringer" of the team. It is revealed that her name was given to her by Zarya when they first met as preteens. Her full birth name is Pyperia Ashryn Elvanestri. Despite her youthful looks, she is revealed to be 110, as elves possess longevity and decelerated aging. She loves music and acrobatics and is a natural performer.
• Emerald Zirconia Goldenbraid (voiced by Evany Rosen[7]) – A teenage dwarf who originally worked as the royal family's griffin wrangler and is the second Mysticon Knight. Called "Em" for short, she is smart, empathetic, innovative, and can engineer just about anything. Her signature color is purple and, at times, pink; her symbol of mystical power is the pink unicorn, which is the same color as the dark Basilisk Bracer belonging to her "dark" Vexicon counterpart Eartha. She can erect a pink orbicular shield around her and her fellow Mysticons. Her griffin companion is named Topaz. She is known to be "the heart" of the team. In addition to her mystic sword, she can use her dwarven gadgets to disable machinery from a distance or to seek out her fellow Mysticons if separated. She is given a legendary Silver Trident by Queen Truefin, as a gift for her bravery. Her boyfriend is the hunky Kasey Boon of the Pink Skulls. Her special abilities as Mysticon Knight are never revealed, as they are not enough episodes, though her pink energy shield is considered one.

• Mallory (voiced by Amy Matysio[8])-- The leader of the Vexicons and Princess Arkayna's evil counterpart. She has light blue skin, ice-white spiked hair and a blue staff with a jagged dark blue crystal which emits strong beams of icy, snowy energy. She also has an animal sidekick named Deeva, a pale aqua blue fox-like creature (Choko's evil counterpart) that she wears around her neck like a muffler. Her bracer is a serpent/snake, which she attacks with by calling out "Ice Serpent, Strike!"; the same color as Zarya's blue Wolf Bracer. She is the most rebellious of all four Vexicons, even attempting to overthrow her own creator and "mother" by attaining the Mask for herself. She succeeds but is fully influenced by it after she manages to get it back from her star mistress. She is later imprisoned with her sisters Kasha and Willa, and Deeva, in the royal dungeon.
• Acting King Gawayne (voiced by David Berni[9]) – Princess Arkayna and Zarya's selfish, spoiled and overweight stepbrother and the source of their many frustrations. After his father and stepmother were turned to bone statues, he is crowned Acting King of Gemina (dubbing himself "Gawayne the Great"), but was abducted and used to extort the Mysticons into handing over the Dragon Disk. In another episode, he chooses his own safety over his people. At one point he obtains the orange and blue gems of Queen Necrafa. He gives the blue one to his pixie girlfriend, Lateensia, who dumps him afterward because of his selfishness, leaving him crushed. He tearfully attempts to persuade her to take him back, claiming that he will try to change. He writes letters to the bone statue of his father in secret, admitting that he would trade being king to have him back. At the Sky Lancers' Festival, e is surprised and not amused upon learning that his twin stepsisters were, in fact, Mysticon Dragon Mage and Mysticon Ranger all along.
• Kitty Boon (voiced by Katie Griffin[10][11]) – Captain of the Pink Skulls, female pirate, and Zarya's childhood friend.[12] She takes advantage of this relationship to incapacitate the Mysticons and obtain the Dragon Disk, which she sells to Dreadbane. She later fights alongside the Mysticons, and on a third occasion gives Zarya inspiration to thwart Necrafa's plans. She is later revealed to be Zarya's romantic love interest, as confirmed by the show's creator, Sean Jara,[13][14] who said they treated their relationship "like all the other relationships in the show,"[15] with Matt Ferguson, the show's director, supporting the addition of the relationship. In the comic books, she debuts in Volume 2.
• Kasey Boon (voiced by Joshua Graham[16]) – Kitty's younger brother who Emerald developed a crush on. He gave her a bracelet which was revealed to be a tracking device to follow the Mysticons. He later appears to have second thoughts about taking advantage of Em's feelings for him, and catches her, after which the two have a serious romance.[12] In the comics, he debuts in Volume 2.
• Nova Terron (voiced by Dan Lett[17]) – Holding the top rank of Star Master, he is a stern and bearded leader with a high-pitched voice. He sees the new Mysticons as failures whose incompetence will bring about the apocalypse, especially when they defy his order to destroy the complete Codex. He had been ordered by his master, Alpha Galiga, to separate the twin princesses, Arkayna and Zarya, as newborns. He came to enjoy playing the video game Avatars of the Apocalypse.
• Tazma Grimm (voiced by Michelle Monteith[18][lower-alpha 2]) – Malvaron's older sister who favors training over natural talent and is chosen to train the Mysticons. She later betrays them and the Astromancers to obtain power for herself. She was the Shadow Mage who had forced Zarya and Piper to steal the Dragon Disk in exchange for Choko in the first episode. She later seems to have second thoughts about Dreadbane's leadership, calling him weak and incompetent. Tazma partners with Kymraw to claim the complete Codex from the Mysticons but is betrayed; she is horrified when Dreadbane uses it to release Queen Necrafa. She informs Necrafa of the new Mysticons and joins her for vengeance. Tazma is saved from being destroyed with the lair of the Spectral Hand and imprisoned in a snow-globe for her crimes. She was eventually freed by her reluctant younger brother and took the chance to escape by teleporting away in a flash of shadowy smoke. She remains at large in the realm after the defeat of the Spectral Hand.
• Proxima Starfall (voiced by Stacey DePass[19][lower-alpha 3]) – A short orphan with red glasses, a black bob-cut hairstyle, and pale tan skin. Her innate magical strength is exceptional and she has more experience in high-star technology than most top-level Astromancers. She offers to use her magic to locate the Mysticons per Nova Terron's orders. She later demands that they be "brought to justice" in retaliation for Emerald giving her a star-shaped scar on her right cheek. She had always felt like she was missing an essential part of herself, which seems to be explained when she was believed to be the lost princess of Gemina and Arkayna's fraternal twin. However, she was merely a decoy to protect the real twin princess, Zarya. To gain revenge on the Mysticons for making her believe that she was loved and wanted in the realm, she secretly kept the sinister fragment of Queen Necrafa's evil mask, allowing its dark power to consume her soul. She then corrupts the Dragon Disk, and creates her very own Dark Codex, from which she calls forth the Vexicons. While the Vexicons distract the Mysticons, Proxima continues her plot to achieve her full revenge on the oblivious Arkayna for not being there for her and choosing to abandon her, ever since she discovered that Zarya was her true twin sister. She eventually came to regret allowing the dark power within the mask fragment to consume her and intended to toss it back into the Rift of Ruin. Unfortunately for her, it has long since been attached to her intensely bitter feelings of loneliness, hatred and betrayal and has now taken full control of her troubled spirit and body in full measure. Her tormented mind is later intruded by the Mysticons, with the help of Tazma, in an attempt to break the stronger hold Necrafa's mask now has upon her by finding the "Free Psyche" spell. She makes amends by revealing what she has learned about the Spectral Hand itself, and reverses the dark spell she cast on the Astromancers. In the end, she is given the untainted but powerless Dragon Disk and still-powerless Codex by Nova Terron, who resigns as leader of the Astromancers to stay with his longtime starmate Geraldine by going off on inter-dimensional adventures with her, and gives the topmost position of "Star Mistress" to the teenage orphan, which moved her.
• Malvaron Grimm (voiced by Deven Christian Mack[20]) – A young, talented male mid-level Astromancer who is stationed in the palace. He becomes the Mysticons' new instructor in mystical abilities. He has romantic feelings for Arkayna, which are expressed somewhat when he admitted that he was scared that he might lose her. Unlike top-level Astromancers, his exceptionally powerful innate magical aura is colored light orange; the same as his aunt Geraldine Yaga. He is the love interest and starmate of Princess Arkayna.
• Douglaphius "Doug" Hadderstorm (voiced by Doug Hadders[21][lower-alpha 4]) – A large cyclops Astromancer and friend of Malvaron. He becomes Malvaron's assistant in training the new Mysticons. He has an obsession with a tiny child's collectible called "Twinkly Mare" and "Twinkly Dragon". Even though he is in the Order of the Astromancers, he seems to possess no magical abilities whatsoever, which he himself officially confirms in The Secret of the Fifth Mysticon chapter book of not having any "flashy powers." He goes by "Doug" for short.
• Queen Necrafa (voiced by Valerie Buhagiar[22]) – Leader and witch queen of the sinister Spectral Hand who was defeated by the original Mysticons a thousand years ago. Dreadbane intends to resurrect her with the Dragon Disk, though it is later implied she is imprisoned in another dimension that Dreadbane intends to breach. Once she is released, she double-crosses her devoted general by hurling him into the dark world where she was trapped. She similarly uses the Codex, draining its magic to rejuvenate herself and amplify her power, before hurling it through the gateway. Necrafa doubts Tazma's word that there are new Mysticons, and regards them as mere children when she confronts them in Drake City. Necrafa joins with the Spectral Dragon but is destroyed by Arkayna and Zarya who bonded together and turned into twin dragons. However, a fragment of the skeletal mask she wore is left behind. It is revealed that she was originally a powerful elf, highly gifted in ancient elf magics, whose entire being was fully consumed by the mask of the Spectral Hand, turning her into undead lich-queen of pure evilness. This implies that she is/was distantly related to Piper.
• General Dreadbane (voiced by Deven Christian Mack[20]) – The undead leader of the skeleton army who loves Necrafa and seeks to steal the Dragon Disk to resurrect her. He eventually succeeds but she rejects his feelings and hurls him into her former prison, an inter-dimensional world of darkness. He is discovered there by Tazma and the Mysticons who came searching for the Codex. Having lost his memory he calls himself "Reginald" and had built a flower garden as an expression of his unrequited love. In a bizarre turn of events, he attacks Tazma, warning that Necrafa will betray her. He later uses Zarya's mystical bowstring to return to his lair. He takes the yellow mystic rings to give to Necrafa, but comes to see that she used him; He throws the rings down and he leaves. He returns in "Fear the Spectral Hand" in which he was revealed to have a mighty Sky Lancer who defended the realm bravely until he was tainted by the evil forces of the Spectral Hand; thus becoming the undead skeleton Dreadbane. In an act of self-sacrifice, he reverses the spell of petrification on the King and Queen and makes Princess Arkayna promise to defend the city he loves before expiring into the stars.
• Serena Snakecharmer (voiced by Julie Lemieux[23]) – A gorgon reporter who has wiggly blonde hair of live snakes, one of which is named Serena. She dons sunglasses during her big reports. She reported live on the coronation of Gwayne "the Great", and got a closer look at Arkayna gate-crashing the party as the Dragon Mage. Her last appearance was in "The Foz Who Saved Lotus Night" when she was turned full zombie.
• Kymraw (voiced by Linda Kash[24]) – A gruff female troll who leads a biker gang and speaks in the third person. She aided in the abduction of recently crowned King Gwayne. She swore vengeance on the Mysticons, and attempts to take it on later occasions. She gave Dreadbane information on the Codex when she overheard Piper's boasting. She betrays Tazma and hands over the completed Codex to Dreadbane for two gold-filled treasure chests, stating that "double-cross means double pay." She is eventually hypnotized by Tazma into doing her bidding as payment for this double-cross.
• Imani Firewing (voiced by Athena Karkanis[25])- One thousand years ago, she was chosen as the first Dragon Mage and leader of the original Mysticons, who had perished defending the realm of Gemina from Queen Necrafa. First appearing in a flashback in "The Astromancer Job", she was the last of her generation of Mysticons standing against Dreadbane in the wasteland of Victory Heights; she defeated Necrafa by unleashing the powers of her mystical "Bracer of the Heavens", imprisoning Necrafa in a far-off world, but this caused Imani to lose her own life. A statue of her is in the royal treasury and on the Hill of Heroes alongside her fellow Mysticons. In "The Secret of the Fifth Mysticon" novel, it is revealed that she was deeply afraid of foz.
• Quasarla (voiced by Athena Karkanis[25])- A female Astromancer who had fought alongside the original Mysticons during their battle against Queen Necrafa. She was eventually overpowered and turned into a mindless, masked Spectromancer by her fellow Astromancer colleague Proxima.
