#deleted character

PJ Masks Firefly

Firefly was supposed to appear in the PJ Masks series as a nighttime villain but was cut due to DMCA (Defense Contract Management Agency) copyright violation

Gala Elvira

She's the deleted maid of Madame Adelaide Bonfamille. Don't know why exactly, but I wanted to draw her up for my gala series and add her in, instead of pairing Edgar up with a non-deleted character.

Anyway, I used a few different concepts for her design. Though, since the blonde concept was Disney's most common, I went with that. I chose an Edwardian dress and hairstyle. Though I'm not doing historically accurate, I do try to keep characters in the style of their era, while at times taking liberties like Disney does.

If I would like to bring back one deleted concept character, I choose Charo. I could imagine Charo being Princess Celeste's mean pet cat who has the ability of speech, but only to Celeste. Think Iago from Aladdin.

...and that's a real shame.

Now, let me make something clear: The writers of Encanto were right to cut Bubo Marquez and his arc with Isabela from the movie. It would've crowded the plot, and at the time, it was unnecessary for Isa to have a love interest or for Mariano to have any kind of rival. But that does not mean Bubo is a worthless character who deserves to be hated. His intended role in the film, along with the character design, reveal something very important about Isabela: She inherited her mother's tastes. I mean, look at this dork!

He's basically Agustín, but as a student in the 1950s.

What's more, because we never officially met Bubo, he is a blank slate. He can be pretty much anything you want him to be. We know he's interested in nature and knows (or thinks he knows) a few things about wild animals and/or survival. We know he was named after an owl for some reason. And we know he's notably shorter than Isa. But beyond that, the man is a mystery. A tabula rasa. We can do whatever we want with him. So that's what I did.

Bubo appears in my fic Patchwork (currently on hiatus due to the need to rework a couple of chapters). Part of my intention with that fic was to establish my own head canon for this character. Since I don't know when (or if) I'll finish that fic, let me share my own personal Bubo head canon with you all.

Bubo is from Bogotá.

He has an older sister named Rosa. Rosa suffers from lupus and also has vitiligo.

Bubo and Rosa attend a university in Bogotá--Bubo as an undergrad and Rosa as a graduate working on her doctorate.

The two of them are very close.

Bubo is shorter than Rosa, so she will never not get to refer to him as her little brother.

Bubo has been interested in ornithology since he was a child. His favorite bird is the great horned owl. His friends eventually nicknamed him Bubo because he would not stop talking about the owl, always calling it by its binomial, Bubo virginianus.

His real name is Alfonso.

Bubo is studying wildlife biology.

When Bubo meets Isabela, they hit it off right away, and agree to write one another.

Isa also becomes good friends with Rosa.

Bubo eventually visits the Encanto, where he meets Antonio and begs him to help him find the rare Andean condor.

Isa and Bubo date for a while, but nothing really comes of it, and their paths eventually diverge for a time. Bubo, Rosa and Isa remain good friends, however.

Here's my own take on Bhati, a Lion King character who was cut from the film during production. Based their design on some concept art they were in.

They were (or she was, according to some scripts) intended to be a friend of Simba & Nala. Mostly Nala. They were also supposed to be in Zazu's place, from what I've read.

In my fanon Sukalaverse, Bhati never met Simba, but befriended Nala during Scar's reign and temporarily took Zazu's position as majordomo while he was ribcaged, forced to be the king's entertainer. They're a wisecracking troublemaker that the hyenas absolutely loathe. 

For people hating on Creek, just remember this character was originally going to be the one to betray Poppy and the trolls, but she was so likable that no one could get over the betrayal. 

My version of Grandpa Semi. I hope you can read my awful handwriting.. 

Grandpa Semi is presumably a deleted character from Undertale, who was possibly meant to be Sans’ and Papyrus’ grandpa. Although none of this is confirmed. I like the idea though. :)
