Sportacus is LazyTown’s slightly-aboveaverage superhero. The real-life embodiment of the action figure every kid dreams of becoming: fit, agile, an amazing acrobat with lightning-fast style. He’s always moving – flipping through the air and landing on his feet. Sportacus loves to use everyday items in outrageous ways, often skipping the ordinary when he can do something with flair; no wonder he lives in an airship. He owns a magical crystal that glows when the LazyTown kids get into trouble. It keeps him quite busy actually, so to be able to charge his batteries, he always goes to bed at 8:08. He’s patient, kind,  always understanding, and doesn’t tell the kids in LazyTown   what not to do. He prefers to lead by example.

      Sportacus inspires us to be the best we can.
This 8-year-old girl is new to LazyTown. She’s just moved here to live with her uncle, the town’s mayor, Milford Meanswell. Stephanie is caught between doing what’s easiest and making better choices. With an “always a way” attitude, she’s the drive behind the adventures, the sparkplug that brings change to LazyTown and all the kids. She loves moving and music, dancing and doing. Meeting Sportacus opened a whole new door of creative possibilities, and the sky’s the limit now.
A larger-than-life character (and that’s not just his chin), Robbie is the silly resident villain, intent on keeping LazyTown…lazy, if only Sportacus and that “pink-haired little girl” weren’t around. Living down in his dark and weird lair, he plots the downfall of his nemesis while gobbling junk food and lounging in his orange, fur-covered recliner. A master of disguise (albeit silly ones),  he will hatch schemes that are as outlandish as they are   humorous, failing every time, usually to his own ruin.

Six-year-old Stingy is simply selfish. Whatever is his is his, and whatever is yours is also his. He knows he’s selfish and stingy, and he likes it that way, but with a little coaxing, the others can usually get him to share - although it’s usually with conditions: “You can have it – but I want it right back.” He’s grabby, funny, opinionated and sometimes lonely (his best friend is a piggy bank, after all), but deep down, he’s a good guy who never lets his friends down in the clutch.

Lovable, sweet and constantlyeating candy, Ziggy is the youngest of the kids, and his wide-eyed innocence, coupled with unflinching belief in Sportacus, makes him unshakeable in his optimism. He’s always first to say ‘yes’ to an adventure, but is just as easily distracted, especially by candy. Ziggy wants to be a superhero when he grows up, just like his idol Sportacus, but in the meantime, he’s always happy to lend a hand to anyone that needs it.

Her name couldn’t say it better. She’s the town nosey-body and gossip, but never with malicious intent. Unfortunately, she just can’t help herself – she always wants to be “in the know.” Bessie thinks she’s on top of the latest fashion or trend, but is as behind as last year’s dance craze. She tries to be a mother figure to the kids, but often comes off as patronizing and condescending. Mayor Meanswell often solicits her advice in matters concerning Stephanie, and she’s lways happy to lend her opinion – even if it’s not always the best approach.

Stephanie’s uncle is the Mayor of LazyTown and takes his job seriously, but not as seriously as his crush on Bessie Busybody. His name says it all – he’s helpful but a bit of a fumbler.

A smart, natural take-charge leader with absolutely NO social skills, Trixie is the rebel without a pause. A rule bender, prankster, Trixie definitely thinks outside the box, then tears up the box and uses it for something else. She is impatient with all procedures, no matter how much sense they make; however, her unconventional mind can easily discover fresh solutions to problems and she possesses strong leadership qualities.

Pixel’s the type of kid who relates better to his computer than to people. In fact, video games and electronic technology are his life, and he navigates them with masterful skill. He knows how to kick a soccer ball with a joystick, but not with his own feet. Engaged, earnest and focused, all his time in the digital world has left him ill-prepared for the illogical and uncontrollable forces at play when he hangs with real people. The remote control he  carries in his holster can’t mute arguments, or change the   programming of friends, so he must either retreat to his    consistent world of bits and bytes or struggle through the     messy moments of friendship.
