Jasper

Jasper is a young Selkie as well as the natural son of Ursula and King Zøg and younger half-brother of Queen Bean and Prince Derek.

Biography

Ursula became pregnant with Jasper during her stay at the Dreamland castle and after she returned to the forest, Ursula kept her son's existence a secret and raised him like a normal bear cub until a lonely Zøg went looking for her and Ursula told him about Jasper. Even after the two spent time together and Ursula went missing, Zøg was reluctant to take care of Jasper but ultimately gave in and brought him back to Dreamland, where he was welcomed by Bean but not so much by Derek, with whom he had a rather rough start. The half-brothers grew closer however when they discovered they both liked to throw Elfo down the stairs.

Jasper was later sent to school along with Derek and Bean's uncle Jerry, despite the younger boys' objections.

After he thinks he has killed one of the elves with Derek and Freckles, the trio escape to Steamland where Freckles sells Derek and Jasper to P.T. before getting captured himself.

Appearance

Jasper is a young, male bear cub with messy red fur the same color as his father's hair, large brown eyes and long, sharp claws. Despite looking like normal bear he does resemble his father, especially when he frowns.

Personality

Jasper is short-tempered and shown to be jealous as with Derek. He can be shown to be emotional, when he thought Ursula had died. He seems to enjoy the pain of others, laughing at Zøg after throwing pinecones at his head, and throwing Elfo down the stairs. He even states to Derek "If we work together, we can hurt people much more than we can by ourselves". Jasper seems to be shy at times, not talking to Zøg when they first met, and initially hiding from Bean when Zøg introduces him to her.

Relationships

Ursula

Ursula is Jasper's mother, with whom he apparently has a good relationship with his mother and Jasper was very upset when he thought Ursula had died.

King Zøg

Zøg is Jasper's father, and he has a pretty good relationship for him despite only recently meeting him. Jasper seems to be a little annoyed by Zøg at times, like when he told Zøg that "he doesn't shut up".

Queen Bean

As of now, Bean and Jasper seem to have a poor relationship, due to the fact the only real interaction Jasper made with Bean was asking her if she was "some kind of giant squirrel".

Prince Derek

Derek is Jasper's paternal older half-brother. Jasper and Derek had a rough start due to Derek's jealousy over having to share everything, including his bed, with Jasper and the two engaged in a sibling rivalry until they bonded their mutual love for throwing Elfo downstairs among other things.

Trivia

It is unknown if Jasper can take off his bear skin yet.
Jasper's last name is likely Grunkwitz, taking after Zøg, his father.
Jasper says "Where'd you grow up, a cave? Apparently not." Signifying he was likely raised in a cave.
Jasper appears in Season 3, Episode 8: Hey, Pig Spender, but doesn't show up as a significant character until Season 4, Episode 7: The Unbearable Lightning of Bean. This was likely to foreshadow his future appearance as a character.
