Vor is an evil sorceress who is an antagonist in the Disney Jr. animated series Sofia the First. She was imprisoned inside a magical locket and was found by Prisma.
Background[]
Vor was originally a normal crystal maker in the Mystic Isles before she was corrupted by an unknown evil spirit, turning her into the first villain in the EverRealm. Now the physical embodiment of evil, she used the dark power of her magic ring to spread evil throughout the world in an attempt to conquer it. However, she fell afoul of the Protectors who ganged up on and managed to defeat her, destroying her physical body, but as her spirit can never be destroyed, it was imprisoned inside a locket.
Before she was defeated by the Protectors, however, Vor split her magic ring into pieces and placed them inside the Wicked Nine, nine magical objects that would fall into the hands of history's most devious villains. Because these objects would unleash unspeakable power when brought together, the Protectors scattered these nine objects all over the EverRealm. As for Vor herself, the locket containing her consciousness was locked away in a Crystal Lock-fitted safe in the Terrible Tower section of the Protector Fortress in the Mystic Isles, where it remained for many years.
Personality[]
Vor is basically described as conniving, vain, crafty, and completely evil with absolutely no redeeming qualities. She is very sly and manipulative as she played Prisma like a fiddle when using her to find the Wicked Nine to release her from her locket.
Once she is freed from the locket, she drops her calm facade and reveals her nature as a twisty evil and psychopathic tyrant who will not hesitate to hurt or even kill those who get in her way--including children and even other innocents who've done nothing to her.
Vor is also extremely sadistic as she states that she wants for Sofia to suffer in the worst way possible by taking everything she owns and loves.
Yet, despite Vor's success in conquering Enchancia and the EverRealm, she can never seem to be satisfied with her tyrannical conquests as she reveals that she has future plans to extend her reign even further.
All in all, Vor's overconfidence and pure dark heart is what ultimately does her in (both figuratively and literally).
Role in the series[]
Vor first appears in "The Mystic Isles: The Falcon's Eye". After Prisma's capture, she was locked into a cell next to where Vor's safe is. This proves to be a mistake: Prisma recognizes the Locket for what it is and sees it as the key to her freedom. After a strangeling named Twitch shows up, Prisma tells him how to get the Locket for her since she knows about Crystal Locks due to the fact she and her sister Azurine made them all the time. After Twitch gets it, Prisma opens the Locket and awakens Vor. She tells Prisma about the Wicked Nine and how, if the objects are brought to her, she will get her powers back. Twitch goes to get the first one for Prisma. When he returns with a Necessi-Key, Prisma breaks out and goes to get them herself.
What Prisma doesn't know however, is that Vor plans to take the power of Wicked Nine for herself and be free from her accursed locket. The objects all contain fragments of Vor's ring, which is the source of her evil magic - the key to her release.
In the series finale Forever Royal, Vor succeeds in bringing all of the Wicked Nine together and reforms her magic ring, releasing her from the locket that the Protectors trapped her in long ago as well. In need of a corporeal form, Vor's spirit possesses Prisma and becomes a physical entity. Seeking revenge and power, Vor enlists Wormwood and Twitch as her minions and traps the Protectors with a powerful spell they cannot break, then uses a mind control spell to force Princess Sofia's mentor, Chrysta, to lure the princess to the Mystic Isles under false pretenses so as to eliminate her as a threat. Vor then seals the gates of the Isles and takes off to conquer the Ever Realm, starting with Sofia's home of Enchancia. With shards of crystal from her former prison, Vor creates an army of Crystal Minions and sets off to conquer Enchancia Castle. Sofia rallies her friends from the village to stop her, but Vor easily subdues them with her mind control magic, forcing them to tell her where the princess is.
Vor appears before Sofia at the castle bridge and attacks her, causing the princess lose her balance and fall off the bridge before Minimus manages to catch her. Vor watches the two fly into the distance, intending for Sofia to helplessly watch as she steals everything she owns and loves. Vor then invades the castle, where she places King Roland and his family under her mind control spell to force Roland surrender his crown (which she then incinerates into a pile of ash) and then imprison themselves.
Vor then plunges Enchancia into darkness and prepares to conquer all the other kingdoms in the EverRealm (especially Avalor), with future plans on taking over Neverland (and later London and possibly all of Earth) once she is done there. Having freed her family, Sofia invokes her Amulet of Avalor to trap the wicked sorceress inside it, like it had done with Princess Elena. But Vor manages to snag Sofia's ankle with her magic, and drags her inside as well despite the efforts of her sister Princess Amber to stop it.
Inside the Amulet, Vor gloatingly taunts the princess with the fact that there are no friends who can help her inside the Amulet, while repeatedly striking her away with her dark magic. However, Sofia sees the spirits of the Disney Princesses who helped her in her times of need. She uses them and the love she feels for her family and friends to overcome Vor's dark magic, causing the wicked evil sorceress to dissolve into nonexistence once and for all, also releasing a repentant Prisma from her control for good.
Trivia[]
- Vor's spirit form has a similar appearance to the spirit of the Evil Queen's Magic Mirror. In her human form, she appears to be a combination of the Evil Queen and Maleficent.
- It is also heavily implied that Vor is the Embodiment of All Evil. Which in itself implies that Vor has probably only been Exiled from the EverRealm rather like The First in the Buffyverse (Buffy: The Vampire Slayer).
