Kuzco

Kuzco, also known known as Emperor Kuzco, is the main protagonist of Disney's 2000 hit The Emperor's New Groove, Kronk's New Groove, and The Emperor's New School.

Personality
Kuzco is very self-centered, thinking that everyone should be put below him, because he is "Emperor".

Kuzco is forced by law to graduate from "Kuzco Academy," a school, that he paid for, in order to stay Emperor. Yzma and Kronk continually plot to make sure that Kuzco fails his class and he doesn't become Emperor. Kuzco's catch phrases are "No touchies!", "Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh!", "Boo-ya!", "Boom, baby, boom!", and "It's all about me!".

He is 18 years old. He has black long hair. His occupation is an Emperor and a student at Kuzco Academy. He wears Emperor clothing: a red and yellow robe and a yellow emperor crown. He also has aqua earings on his ears.

Kuzco is initially portrayed as a spoiled, selfish, cocky, rude, sarcastic teenager, albeit with a sense of flair and pizazz.

The Emperor's New Groove
One day in the throne room, after firing Yzma for taking his place, Kuzco summons Pacha, an overweight peasant to tell him that he's building his summer home, Kuzcotopia, on the site of Pacha's home, thus rendering Pacha and his family homeless. Pacha is then dismissed by Kuzco's personal guards.

In the Secret Lab, Yzma and her lackey, Kronk then attempt to kill Kuzco as revenge of getting fired. However, the attempt is flawed as the supposed poison turns out to be extract of llama. She then orders Kronk to knock out Kuzco, take him out of town, and finish the job.

Taking the llama's body to the city, conscience-stricken Kronk loses the sack holding Kuzco.

Kuzco ends up in Pacha's village, and after discovering that he has been changed, demands that Pacha help him return to the palace. Rebuffed, Kuzco attempts to return on his own and ends up surrounded by a pack of jaguars, only to be saved when Pacha has a change of heart.

Kuzco and Pacha now must work together to get back to the palace and change Kuzco back.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Kuzco does not actually appear in Who Framed Roger Rabbit (as the film was made long before his), but animation of him dancing from The Emperor's New Groove is included on the main menu of Disc 2 of the Vista Series DVD release of the film.
