Indian Chief

The Indian Chief is Tiger Lily's father and the leader of the Indians in Disney's 1953 film Peter Pan. He is voiced by Candy Candido.

Role in the film
In the movie, when John, Michael, and the Lost Boys are out hunting Indians they are captured by the Indians instead and taken to the Indian Camp and brought to the attention of the Indian Chief who thinks they've kidnapped his daughter Tiger Lily (who was actually kidnapped by Captain Hook) and he orders that the Boys will be burnt to stake if Tiger Lily doesn't return home by sunset. Luckily Peter Pan saved Tiger Lily and the Chief set the Boys free and made them Indians too and Peter the chief Little Flying Eagle. He also explained through the song What Makes the Red Man Red? how the Red Man becomes red by falling in love with a maiden, to which Peter falls in love with Tiger Lily causing Wendy to become jealous and upset.

For some unknown reason, the Indian Chief didn't appear in the sequel, Return to Neverland. But the most likely presumption is due to racial sensibilities.

Trivia

 * Though the Indian Camp is featured in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep as a battleground for Aqua and Vanitas, the Indian Chief and Tiger Lily don't make appearances in the area.
