Auntie First (voiced by Marnie McPhail) is the ruler of Near Under, where she holds control with an iron fist. She took over as ruler after her niece Populah willingly abdicated the throne. She is also related to Cousin Tess, who rules the kingdom of Under Sea. Auntie First is interested in taking over Under and making it part of Near Under.
Personality[]
Auntie is very self-centered and confident in herself, always speaking her mind and not being afraid to shove others out of her way. She is also often grooming herself and obsessed with looking more beautiful. She has very few close friends, usually maintaining friendships with others as long as they bring her something she can use.
The only one of her subjects she doesn't manhandle is Captain Darling, who she treats as an advisor and trusted lackey. She also seems to genuinely love Populah, but wants her to be more cutthroat like herself or Cousin Tess.
Auntie also sometimes gets along with Bob Wire, whom she has collaborated with numerous times. Most of the time, Bob tips Auntie off about things going on around Under, or functions as her backup muscle. However, both of them are eager to backstab the other in order to get an advantage over the other. Auntie usually calls Bob nicknames like "Bobby Boy", to his annoyance.
Abilities[]
Auntie First runs Near Under as a democracy, which sees her as the central ruler with all major decisions voted upon by citizens. Usually, she tends to threaten citizens in favour of an outcome she approves of. She has also mentioned in passing that she's had responded to people who defied her by having them decapitated. Auntie only tolerates Russell, and is quick to turn on him if he insults her or gives her an opportunity to seize power in Under.
Often, Auntie uses her power for personal gain, such as in adding to her pet collection. If she determines a creature to be cute enough for her collection, she has it added to her warehouse-like "pet sanctuary". In the past, she has added Loopy and Gus to her collection.
