🧙🏻‍♂️👋🏻🪄🔮🌙CedricTheSorcerer

Human/Humanoid villains

Boswell - a one off antagonist. He is the antagonists of the episode “Finding Clover”. Boswell is traveling magician (who uses stage magic) who takes Clover - Sofias bunny companion - and Sofia is forced to rescue Clover herself.

Cedric the Sorcerer - one of my personal favourite characters overall, Cedric is the royal sorcerer of the kingdom of Enchancia. He is one of the long term villains of the series who appears in the pilot movie for the series. After being put down his entire life for his “subpar” magical abilities, and being compared to his famous father, Cedric became bitter and resentful towards Roland (the king & Sofias step father). As a villain Cedric schemes to steal Sofias magical amulet and take over Enchancia, though after spending time with Sofia and truly befriending her, Cedric has his own redemption arc. Cedric is one my favourites because we actually get to see his character develop as the show goes on. There is also a running joke in the first season where Sofia keeps accidentally mispronouncing his name (saying /seedrik/ and not /sedrik/) though never realises she’s saying it wrong, despite Cedric always correcting her.

Gavin the Stable Master - Gavin is less main villain and more henchmen to Prince Roderick. He is a one off character from the Secret Library arc of the series. He would probably be good for a background character.

Glacia the Ice Witch - Glacia is another one off antagonist (most of these characters are). She herself is inspired by “The Snow Queen” and she is a blue skinned Ice witch. Every year on Wassailia (the shows equivalent to Christmas/Yule tide) Glacia grants wishes to those who bring her a gift. Glacia appears in the episode “Winters Gift” where she gives the gift of an Ice Touch to a young fawn named Winter. Though when Winter asks for the gift to be removed, Glacia tells Winter to come back the next year. Glacia is redeemed by the end of the episode and honestly is more of a neutral character. She was just bitter b/c people only came to her when they needed something and brought her generic gifts.

Greylock the Grand - another royal sorcerer villain who shows up in like two episodes. In his debut episode he is shown as a sort of rival for Cedric. Like Cedric, Greylock wishes to overthrow his king though is later defeated by Cedric.

Grimtrix the Good - his title is very misleading, but Grimtrix is one of the more prominent villains of the later seasons. He is a sorcerer who, after becoming fed up with bowing to royals, creates the Order of the Wand which is an organization of powerful sorcerers who think the same. He is the one who created the plan to have the order members overthrow their kingdoms royals, though is later defeated by Sofia and Cedric.

Princess Ivy - Another one of my favourite characters and villains! Princess Ivy is the main villain of the Season 2 special “The Curse of Princess Ivy”. After being denied the thrown, Ivy tried to usurp her older sister. She was caught and imprisoned on an isolated island for a decade before Amber - Sofias step sister - is cursed by the amulet which summons Ivy to Enchancia. She attempts to overthrow Roland as she desires a kingdom of her own to rule, but is defeated by Sofia and Amber. Ivy is from a black and white kingdom and as such hates bright colours. She have two magical animal companions; her butterflies which can make things monochromatic, and her dragonflies who erase peoples memories. Ivy is later redeemed in the 4th season, but she’s a great character nonetheless! (I actually have an Ivy oc in the works).

Marla the Wicked Witch - a witch and the mother of Lucinda the good witch. Marla is considered a “wicked witch” though comes off as more of a neutral character. In the Mother’s Day episode Marla is a bit antagonist, though this is later changed when Lucinda admits that she isn’t a wicked witch anymore. Marla really is more of a doting mother who happens to be a wicked witch, though she is fairly kind and loving especially towards her daughter. I can see Marla taking the place of a Professor more than a student, but that’s my opinion.

Morgana - if you’re familiar with Arthurian legends - or have seen Merlin - you may recognize the name. That’s because Morgana is the shows rival/nemesis character to Merlin from the film “The Sword and the Stone”. Morgana is an evil enchantress who is debuted in season 3, is defeated by Sofia, and then returns in season 4 where she once again is defeated by Sofia with Cedric’s help.

Miss Nettle - an “evil fairy” and the former apprentice to the three good fairies (Fauna, Flora, and Mereyweather). She is a villain who appears in the first two seasons, is redeemed in season tree, and is then an ally in season four. In season 1 Nettle wishes to get revenge on her former teachers, feeling she had been disrespected by the fairies, so she steals their spell book, but is defeated by Sofia. In season 2 she returns to get revenge on Sofia under the guise of “Sasha the Sorceress” but is once again defeated. Nettle once again appears in season 3 where it is revealed that she is created a flower called the “snowdrop” which could grow in near freezing climates. The flower had been stolen by the royal gardener of Freezenberg, a frozen kingdom that is unable to grow any plant life. Felling greatly insulted, Nettle attempted to steal the flowers back once she found them. After a misunderstanding between her and Sofia, Sofia informed the king of the situation and he was more than willing to give Nettle the credit she deserved for their beloved flowers, even going as far as to rename them “Nettledrops” to honour the fairy. Nettle actually returns in Ivy’s redemption episode where she is working to find a cure for an illness called “the deep sleeps”. By the end of the episode, Nettle sparks a friendship with Ivy, even going as far as to create sunglasses for the princess so that she is not blinded by the colourful flowers her butterflies love. While she has begun to turn over a new leaf, Nettle does occasionally cross lines to find a cure for the illness.

Prisma - one of the main villains of season 4, Prisma debuts in the three part special “The Mystic Isles”. Prisma hails from the magical land of the mystic isles; the place where all of the “Ever Realms” magic comes from. Prisma herself is a crystalmaster from the isle of crystals, an island which produced magic gems for things such as amulets and wands. After being overshadowed for years by her younger sister Azurine - who’s powers outshined Prismas - Prisma tried to prove herself by covering the entirety of the mystic isles in her own crystals. Knowing this would destroy the other isles, Azurine stripped Prisma of her powers causing Prisma to flea to the Ever Realm (Earth). Prisma is a very cunning and manipulative person. She can slip into a façade of kindness in order to befriend others, which is how she tricked Sofia and Amber for the majority of the special. After being defeated by Sofia, Amber, and Azurine, Prisma is imprisoned by the Protectors of the Mystic Isles. Prisma later becomes the vessel for the final, big bad boss villain Vor. Prisma is later freed by Sofia and once again imprisoned. According to the wiki for the show, Prisma is redeemed, despite being imprisoned again. I guess it’s b/c he went willingly this time?

Captain Quiver - I have 0 recollection of this character or the episode they show up in, and I’ve watched the entire series. Anywho, Quiver and his two crew mates are described as “bumbling pirates” who capture Sofia, Amber, and Queen Miranda while the pirates are looking for an enchanted figure head for their ship. They are one off, season 4 antagonist and are redeemed by the end. From the sound of it, they are less villains and more just dedicated to find the figure head and just captured the royals thinking they could help instead of just asking.

Queen Shuriki - Shuriki is one of the big villains of the Elena of Avalor tv series, though makes her debut in the two part Sofia the First special “Secrets of Avalor”. Queen Shuriki is an evil enchantress from the Northern Islands who invaded Avalor and killed the king and Queen on the night of Elena’s 15th birthday. She attempts to kill Elena as well but the princess is saved by the Amulet of Avalor but being trapped inside it, this amulet is the same one that’s been given to Sofia. For 41 years Shuriki has ruled Avalor with a strict rule; she had banned any and all forms of music and dancing turning a once bright and lively kingdom into a quiet one. It is said though that Shuriki had made Avalor one of the biggest trading kingdoms in the Ever Realm. Shuriki is eventually defeated by Sofia, a newly freed Elena, both princesses families, and the entire kingdom of Avalor, freeing the kingdom and allowing Elena and her remaining family (her sister, grandparents, and cousin) to restore the kingdom. Shuriki later returns a year later as a main villain in Elena of Avalor and is once again defeated, this time by Elena.

Slickwell - the castle steward of Rudistan and an antagonist with a gross sounding name, Slickwell is a one off antagonist from season 2. Having always dreamed of being the steward of Enchancia, Slickwell was immensely jealous of Baileywick who holds Slickwell’s dream job. So during the royal jubilee for the kingdom - a party celebrating the birthday of the kingdom, which also included many royal families being invited to celebrate - Slickwell gifts Baileywick a cursed pin which curses the later with immense clumsiness. Though he underestimated Sofia’s determination and loyalty towards Baileywick, and she eventually reveals Slickwell’s schemes. He is fired from his position as castle steward and is never seen again.

Baron Von Rocha - a season three villain who later appears in season four (though doesn’t speak), Von Rocha is a magical musician who practiced magical music. He is very skilled in his craft, but must steal others musical talent to keep up his own talent. His main appearance is when he manipulates Sofia’s friend Vivian into playing a piece of magical music that transferred her talent into Von Rocha. He is later defeated by Sofia and co, resulting in Vivian regaining her talent, and Von Rocha escaping. He later joins the Order of the Wand, but is once again defeated by Sofia, as well as Cedric.

Winnifred the Wise - a retired sorceress and Cedric’s mother, Winnifred is kind of like Marla is she appears as more a neutral character in my opinion. It is mentioned that Winnifred herself is not really evil, she just does bad things as a way to support Cedric (who was evil for a good portion of the series) and get back at her self-righteous husband. Like Marla, Winnifred is shown to be a very loving and doting mother to Cedric, who doesn’t get that sort of attention from his famous father. As mentioned before, she really only does bad to support Cedric. After he starts to better himself with Sofia’s help, she shows some appreciation towards Sofia for her kindness towards Cedric even showing the princess so hospitality. Though she “never forgets what must be done, even to how it would hurt Sofia and the kingdom”.

Vor - and last, but certainly not least in the villain department, is our big bad Vor! Vor is the series finally villain and a very dangerous witch. She was one of the big evils in the past, hailing from the mystic isles and was imprisoned in a locket some point before the main series. After Prisma’s imprisonment, Vor manipulates Prisma from inside the locket to free her. She tells Prisma that if she collects the Wicked Nine (nine objects belonging to nine famous Disney villains 4 of which correlate to twst Great 7) then she will restore Prisma’s powers. In reality, Vor was planning to reunite the shards of her ring (found in the wicked nine) and use Prisma as a vessel. Vor successes in her plan and possesses Prisma. Vor attempts to take over Enchancia during the three part series finale “Forever Royal”, but is defeated by Sofia when the princess invokes the amulets powers and pulls both herself and Vor inside. After overpowering the evil witch with the power of Love and Friendship, Sofia defeats Vor once and for all and is freed once more from the amulet. Vor is quite literally rotten to the core. She is sadistic, malicious, and doesn’t care is her actions harm or even kill others. She is wicked through and through.

And that is all for the adult human/witch villains and antagonists from Sofia the first! I was going to add the other magical creatures who looked like adults, but this post is long enough as it is. Let me know if you want me to make another posts with those characters, or even just a series of organized lists like this.
