List of Kim Possible characters
 | This article possibly contains original research. (January 2008) |
This is a list of characters appearing in the animated series Kim Possible.
Team Possible
Kimberly Ann Possible
- Voice by: Christy Carlson Romano
Leader of the world-famous crimefighting group Team Possible. This red-haired crimefighter who saved the world also tried to live a normal teenage life, such as dealing with everyday problems ranging from the cheer regionals to turning her homework in on time to dealing with boy troubles. She was Ron's best friend since Pre-K, and was his girlfriend since the night of their junior prom (Season 3). Naturally, her name made a reference to the word "impossible". Kim's dialogue tended to be peppered with not-so-typical teen slang; for example, "So not the drama" and "No big", as well as the series' catchphrase, "What's the sitch?" (slang for situation). She was known to have a fiery yet demanding personality, which often got in the way of her work, but she always managed to come out in the end and save the day.
Ronald Stoppable
- Voice By: Will Friedle
Kim's best friend since Pre-K, partner, and later boyfriend during their senior year. Despite his role as the goofy sidekick, Ron proved himself to be a very capable hero and also saved the world from time to time, usually through sheer luck as opposed to skill. His name was a play on the word 'unstoppable'.
Due to the nature of their relationship, one can agree that Kim and Ron have become high school sweethearts albeit the length of their blossoming romance remains unknown.
Rufus
- Voice By: Nancy Cartwright
Ron's pet naked mole rat, considered a member of the team — in fact, he often proves to be more competent than Ron, or even Kim on occasion. Ron got Rufus because he could only have a hairless pet because of his father's allergies. At first, Kim was disgusted by Rufus, but later in the show, she likes him.
Wade
- Voice By: Cesar Eduardo Hernandez
Wade is a 12-year-old child genius who runs Kim Possible's website, supplies her with her gadgets, gives Kim her missions through her Kimmunicator, arranges transportation for her, and even goes on missions with Kim on rare occasions. He often relays information to her, searches for information for her, and performs programming feats. As a genius, he has completed his high school and college education in eight months. He spends his time in his bedroom of his parents' house, in front of the computer with the lights off. In one episode he developed a crush on Monique immediately after seeing her for the first time, leading him to create a love ray and try to force her to be his girlfriend. In the end he learns his lesson and quickly recovers from his minor heartbreak as he gets a crush on a genius girl sitting in Bueno Nacho, but it is clear that this doesn't work out as she has created a love ray herself much to Wade's chagrin. Wade made Kim's battle outfit.
Recurring Villains
Dr. Drakken
- Voice By: John Di Maggio
A blue-skinned mad-scientist and super-villain obsessed with world domination, and with proving that he is a genius. Often referred to as Kim's arch nemesis and, alongside Shego, the main antagonist of the show. His real name is Drew Theodore P. Lipsky. He became a villain after being mocked by his friends at college, and among them was Kim's father, James Possible. He has blue skin, black hair in a pony tail and a wide mouth full of huge teeth. He also has a scar on his left cheek.
Although clearly a genius when it comes to science and schemes, Drakken lacks the smarts to apply them correctly, and usually ends up portrayed as an incompetent loser and comic relief, regardless, his determination keeps bringing him back with his plans. Drakken himself usually claims to be evil, yet, there are occasions in which he shows a soft side of himself. A running joke is that no matter how many times he meets him, he can't remember Ron's name.
Shego
- Voice By: Nicole Sullivan
A green-skinned woman in a tight green and black catsuit, with several battle skills and the capability of generating green flame-like energy in her hands. She is a worldwide wanted thief, formerly a superhero, and currently Drakken's hired henchwoman and arguably Kim's most persistent rival and even more dangerous than her boss. Shego was once hit with a good/evil ray, after which she became friends with Kim and Ron (though her brothers turn evil, as they were already good). Ron feels left out and tries to change Shego back but gets himself turned evil by accident. Kim evetually changes Ron back but accidentally hits Shego and her brothers, turning everyone back. She is the only villain in the series to ever succeed in taking over the world, putting everyone except for a few resistance fighters, under her control. However, Kim Possible manages to alternate the timestream, preventing this from happening. When Kim is shocked to learn that Shego was the "Supreme One" capable of enslaving the earth, those in the future remind her that she is the only one strong, capable, and intelligent enought to do so.
Lord Monty Fisk(Monkey Fist)
- Voice By: Tom Kane
A genetically altered British nobleman who is obsessed with the fighting style of Monkey Kung-Fu, and spent his family's fortune on having surgery to replace his human hands and feet with those of a monkey. He also commands an army of trained ninja monkeys.
Among all the villains, he is considered to be Ron's arch nemesis as they both wield the Mystical Monkey Power (Tai Sheng Pek Kwar), and is one of the few antagonists to actually remember Ron's name and consider him a worthy opponent.
Duff Killigan
- Voice By: Brian George
The self-proclaimed "World's Deadliest Golfer". His weapons are his golf clubs and exploding golf balls. He speaks with a Scottish accent.
Señor Senior, Sr.
- Voice By: Ricardo Montalban
Senior is a retired multi-billionaire who (at Ron's 'accidental' suggestion) took up villainy as a hobby to occupy his retirement years.
Señor Senior, Jr.
- Voice By: Nestor Carbonell
Señor Sr.'s son and accomplice Junior is a spoiled man-child more interested in parties and looking fabulous than in his father's criminal plans. In the episode 'Animal Attraction', he has a brief crush on Kim Possible because of Animology.
Professor Dementor
- Voice By: Patton Oswalt
A mad scientist. While he is a threat to Kim and the world, he is more determined to show up his rival, Dr. Drakken. Ever since he was beaten by Kim's Battle Suit, he has been trying to get his hands on it to conquer the Earth. He tries to get Kim's Battle Suit in the episodes 'Ill-Suited' and 'Larry's Birthday'.
DNAmy
- Voice By: Melissa McCarthy
Real Name: Amy Hall. A breeder of living mutants who continuously mutated her various living Cuddle Buddies, which often went genetically wrong. She had a bubbly personality, but was a bit annoyed by Kim.
Killer Bebes
A group of hive-minded, female killer robots. They were built by Drakken, but have since gone rogue. They made Bonnie Rockwaller their "Queen Bebe" even though Bonnie didn't know it at the time. Kim destroyed them all (by using "super speed shoes") and saved Bonnie in the end.
Gill
A genetically-mutated teen from Ron's old summer camp, Camp Wannaweep, in which he was mutated from pollution in the lake itself. His appearance is that of 'the creature from the Black Lagoon' and includes the ability to spit slime from his mouth that can turn other people into mutants. He is essentially Ron's nemesis, blaming him for what happened to him at Camp Wannaweep. He is voiced by Justin Berfield.
Motor Ed
The cousin of Doctor Drakken, notorious for his team of motorcycles, his mullet, his playing of the air guitar, and repetitive use of the word "seriously". He calls Kim "Red" because of her hair. While he is labeled a villain, he seems more interested in things like road trips and tricking out rides than he does in world domination.
In several episodes, he is noted to have interest in "babes". In two episodes, he is seen hitting on Shego. Unfortunately, Shego wants nothing to do with him.
Camile Léon
After having experimental surgery, she has the ability to shape shift. She went into the evil business because she was cut off from her family's money. She is somewhat a parody of Paris Hilton .She has also worked with the Fashionistas. Her name is a play on the word "chameleon', a color-changing lizard. She is voiced by and designed to resemble Ashley Tisdale.
Supporting characters
Monique
Monique is one of the most recurrent characters of Kim Possible. So far, she has remained without surname, probably as a nod to her voice actress, Raven-Symoné, who is generally known by just her first name. The character’s design has evolved through the seasons, with the most notable change being to her eyes, which pass from small pupils to wider and fuller brown eyes.
Monique is smart and hip, usually speaks in hip-hop style (which Kim described as "Monique-speak"), and also likes to initialize phrases, such as "NBF" (new best friend) and "GF" (Girlfriend). Not too much is known about her personal life, but she has complained of having bad luck with boyfriends. She is also one of Kim's closest friends, giving her level-headed advice about school and life, and serves as a good counterbalance to Ron's out-of-touch eccentricities, and in few occasions assists her on missions, even though she lacks fighting skills. She is also the one who created, along with Rufus, Kim’s new mission clothes (a purple top with black pants). Shego commented that 'The look actually works. And it kills me to say that.'
Bonnie Rockwaller
Bonnie Rockwaller was a girl in Kim's class at Middleton High School, and her rival in almost every respect. Bonnie had a dismissive and superior attitude towards Kim, Ron, and people in general, and cultivated an ivory tower position at the top of the high school "food chain". At the end of the series, she was dating Señor Senior Junior. She has two older sisters.
Along with Bonnie, the other main cheerleaders in Middleton High included: Tara (long wavy blonde hair), Crystal (short wavy brown hair), Jessica (long straight blonde hair), Liz (short wavy red hair with purple headband), Hope (long black hair, no mole), and Marcella (long black hair, mole).
Voiced by Kirsten Storms.
Steven Barkin
School permanent substitute and teacher of practically every subject at Middleton High. It was revealed in the fourth season that he also worked at "Smarty Mart", was the football coach, spend two years of his senior year in high school, and was the son of Franklin Barkin, who bore a strong resemblance to Benjamin Franklin. He is also revealed to have been in a war (persumably the Vietnam War) where he achieved the rank of Lieutenant.
Voiced by Patrick Warburton.
Dr. James Timothy Possible
Kim's father, a rocket scientist. His full name was revealed in "So the Drama" by Big Daddy Brotherson. It was revealed in season 4 that he was a graduate of the Middleton Institute of Science and Technology (MIST) and that he enjoyed writing Captain Constellation fanfics. In the crossover episode "Rufus", Kim revealed that James was best friends with the Senator of Hawaii when they were in high school.
Voiced by Gary Cole.
Dr. Ann Possible
Kim's mother, who was not only a brain surgeon, but also a great mother to Kim, and seemed to be more understanding toward her daughter. In season 4 her name was revealed to be Ann Possible by her brother-in-law Slim Possible in "Graduation Part 1". It was also revealed in season 4 that she was a graduate of the University of Upperton.
Voiced by Jean Smart.
Jim and Tim Possible
Kim's brilliant but annoying younger twin brothers, often referred as the tweebs (twin dweebs) by Kim. Their catch phrase was "Hicka-bicka-boo", followed by "Hooo-Sha". They became the Middleton Mad Puppies after Ron joined the football team and could no longer be the mascot.
Voiced by Shaun Fleming and later Spencer Fox.
The Stoppables
Ron's family, composed of: father (who works as an actuary), mother, and later adopted little sister Hana.
Joshua Wendell Mankey
Josh Mankey was Kim's first crush. He was a talented artist whose works often ended up on display throughout Middleton. Bonnie thought she should be his girlfriend, but Kim also thought she herself should go out with him. Bonnie and Kim fought over him all the time, but Kim eventually got over him. While Kim was obsessed with Josh, Ron called him Josh Monkey.
Other appearances
Apart from their own series, Kim Possible characters also made a crossover appearance in the episode "Rufus" (2.8) of Lilo & Stitch: The Series, when Stitch was kidnapped by Dr. Drakken and Pleakley called on the help of Kim Possible to rescue him. Also, Rufus got mistaken by Jumba as one of his experiments (#607).
