Tales of Arcadia is a Netflix original science fantasy franchise created by Guillermo del Toro, produced by DreamWorks Animation and Double Dare You Productions.

The installments of the trilogy series, Trollhunters, 3Below, and Wizards, have been released worldwide.

The grand finale to the saga, Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans, was released on July 21st, 2021.

Trollhunters: Defenders of Arcadia is available for PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch.

Production Guillermo Del Toro originally intended to create a live-action series called "Trollhunters", but due to budgetary concerns it was deemed to be impractical. He instead made it into a book he co-wrote alongside Daniel Kraus. Guillermo then pitched an animated the show to DreamWorks but they then planned to make an animated film adaptation of the book, but they eventually decided to make it back into a television series instead to expand the story.

On November 6, 2017, Guillermo Del Toro announced that the Trollhunters universe would be expanded into a trilogy of sequel spin-offs: 3Below (the second installment) and Wizards (the third and final installment).

All three of the installments, Trollhunters, 3Below, and Wizards, have been released worldwide, consisting of 88 episodes in total. The final installment of the franchise, Wizards, was originally set to be released at the end of 2019, but due to production issues, it was instead pushed to the summer of 2020 as a limited series.

In December 2017, it was revealed that two characters from Trollhunters ― Steve Palchuk and Eli Pepperjack (voiced by Steven Yeun and Cole Sand, respectively) ― will have their roles extended into 3Below. In April 2018, it was announced that the role of Jim Lake Jr. would incorporate both the voices of the late Anton Yelchin and Emile Hirsch for the entirety of Part Three (and, by extension, the trilogy itself), and the two characters introduced in Part Three of Trollhunters ― Aja and Krel Tarron (voiced by Tatiana Maslany and Diego Luna, respectively) ― will also reprise their roles and serve as the main leads of 3Below.

Since its release, the Tales of Arcadia franchise has been widely praised as an ambitious and boundary-pushing animated series, with Filmink's Travis Johnson calling it "...the best children's animation to come along since Avatar: The Last Airbender." The series was nominated for nine Daytime Emmy Awards in 2017, winning more than any other animated or live-action television program that year. It has also received or been nominated for a BAFTA Award, several Annie Awards, Kidscreen Awards, Golden Reel Awards and a Saturn Award.

The trilogy has also spawned several books and a series of graphic novels by Marc Guggenheim and Richard Hamilton released by Dark Horse, and a video game, Trollhunters: Defenders of Arcadia, on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Microsoft Windows.

In August 2020, on the day Wizards released worldwide on Netflix, it is announced that the saga will be concluded with an original feature film, Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans, which was released on July 21st, 2021. However, it's hinted by Aaron Waltke on a Discord message that Del Toro has plans to pitch a series of shorts, but it's currently unknown if it'll be produced or not.

The Tales of Arcadia franchise has been critically acclaimed for its high quality CGI animation, its dark, emotional and mature tone and writing, best-known voice acting, representation of immigrants, themes of ideological war, prejudice, racism, music, and characters.

Franchise Summary Arcadia-Map-Article-Full-Banner Eli's Supernatural Conspiracy Wall Arcadia Oaks may seem like an ordinary, sleepy suburban town.

Ferocious trolls and magic beasts from underground, royal aliens and spaceships from up above, powerful wizards and ancient tomes from side-to-side: magic and technology is everywhere!

It's all up to Arcadia's young teenage heroes and their loyal allies who are the only ones who can stop the evil lurking within the supernatural... all while balancing their normal high-school lives and saving the world like your average, everyday teenager.

Episodes Main article: List of Trollhunters episodes Trivia Anton Yelchin's final voice role before his death on June 19, 2016. The series was adapted from the 2015 horror-fantasy novel Trollhunters, written by Daniel Kraus and Guillermo del Toro. Trollhunters was originally planned to be a feature film. However, DreamWorks ultimately decided to turn it into a series instead, due to being unable to cram an entire story into one movie, and later expand it into a trilogy called Tales of Arcadia. It was also originally planned to be live-action, but due to budget concerns, they settled with it being CGI animated instead. The feature film titled Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans is the grand finale of the saga. Currently, Trollhunters has the most seasons (3) and most episodes (52) out of all the installments released. The video game based on the series, Trollhunters: Defenders of Arcadia, was released for PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch on September 25th, 2020. Trollhunters provides a good example of the classic story structure "The Hero's Journey", established by Joseph Campbell. It refers to a wide-ranging category of tales in which a character ventures out to get what they need, faces conflict, and ultimately triumphs over adversity. The following steps correspond to the following moments in the series (as there are various depictions of the Hero's Journey). The following uses the 12-step example: Ordinary World: Jim Lake Jr. is living a typically average teenage life in Arcadia Oaks Call to Action: Jim discovers the Amulet of Daylight in the canal, thus becoming chosen to be the very first human Trollhunter Refusal of the Call: Jim attempts to rid himself of the amulet, but with no success as it is permanently bonded to him and he cannot refuse the mantle Meeting the Mentor: Jim is properly introduced to Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! While regarding how the cycle of the Hero's Journey is traditionally depicted, the third and fourth steps are admittedly out of order. In this case, Jim first meets his mentors BEFORE he tries to refuse the call. Crossing the Threshold: Jim visits Heartstone Trollmarket for the first time as he eventually (and slowly) warms up to his role as the new Trollhunter Tests, Allies, and Enemies: Jim's various encounters with many conflicts, obstacles, and challenges he would incidentally bring from the magical world to the human world, all while facing off against numerous monsters, creatures, and antagonists (Bular, Stricklander, Angor Rot, Gunmar, Morgana, etc.), as well as expanding his list of friends/allies (Toby, Claire, Blinky, AAARRRGGHH!!!, Draal, Vendel, etc.) Approach to the Inmost Cave: Jim encounters Merlin in his tomb while learning more about the latter's dark apprentice, Morgana, and how she was the one who orchestrated the strife and deception between mankind and troll kind which led to the Battle of Killahead Bridge in the first place. Ordeal, Death, and Rebirth: Jim's ultimate decision regarding his transformation into a human-troll hybrid (practically facing his deepest fear of losing his humanity and sacrificing his place in the human world to ensure the safety of both worlds, as well as his loved ones) Reward (Seizing the Sword): Jim comes into terms and accepts his newfound powers and that, while his old life may indeed be over, he can still live a new life as a true Trollhunter The Road Back: With his new hybrid form, Jim faces off Gunmar in Arcadia when the Eternal Night begins Resurrection: Team Trollhunters defeat Morgana, ending the Eternal Night War Return with the Elixir: Jim sets off to New Jersey with the trolls, Blinky, Nomura, and Claire, but promises to return to Arcadia someday According to Aaron Waltke, there was a multitude of content the crew wanted to include in the series, but couldn't find a way to work into the final product. These include:[1] Every episode was going to involve traveling to a different troll world (e.g. Quagawumps, Gatto, etc.) There was going to be an entire episode called "Small Story", dedicated to Claire’s parents realizing the truth that NotEnrique was freeloading in their house for so long, as well as involve Gnome Chompsky as a "buddy cop". However, the idea was scrapped, due to episode number concerns.

Jlaire's History

Canon Trollhunters Part 1 Part 2 After Jim went into the Darklands without Claire and the others, she made it her mission to find away to bring Jim back from there. Along with covering for Jim's absence in Arcadia through the use of a magical mask that makes her and Toby look and sound like Jim, Claire pretends to be Jim at school while Toby covers Jim's home life. While on the real Jim's end, he had made a carving of Claire and their friends on the wall of the small cave he made his campsite, until he finds Claire's baby brother. Jim talks to the wall drawing of Claire and the other when he was having dinner.

When Gunmar took over Heartstone Troll Market, Jim and Claire work to evacuate as many trolls as possible in which led to Claire using the full might of her Shadow Staff. Even though Claire was exhausted from over doing it and Jim had saw the staff hurting her as she did so, he was glad to see that Claire is alive and will recover with rest. While the two of them are unaware of the danger that is coming, by using Claire as the unwilling puppet for her plans to kill Jim.

Part 3 After the escape from Troll Market, and during the first part of part three, Jim could see that Claire's health still hasn't fully recovered from the event and didn't want her to use the staff again or take part in Trollhunting until her cold is gone. Even though her mother's campaign signs did give the two and their friends to keep the town safe from Gumm-Gumm attacks. When a punk rock boy, Douxie, appeared at their school and can see that Claire is smitten with him, Jim grew jealous and tries to keep them apart, but Claire uses Jim's advice about balancing her life by signing for Battle for the Bands with their girl friends. After the two took down normal criminals for a change, Jim and Claire felt that they might have a future in crime fighting after they defeat Gummar for good. With Claire's cold getting worse and paying Doctor Lake a visiting didn't help, Claire decides to take her friends' advice to get some rest. Jim is glad that Claire taking care of herself allowed her to miss out the weird day they just had at school. Even though Claire is feeling better after her day of rest, NotEnrique could tell that there is something odd about her of late and that it wasn't a good idea for Claire to go on a date with Jim and their friends.

Before Claire would stop it she gets possessed by Morgana, a witch who wishes to kill Jim for being Merin's current champion. Once Jim realised this and that it was the reason for her odd behaviour, he calls in friends in hopes that they'll be able to save Claire from the witch. Luckily Jim and Toby were able to free Claire from Morgana when the two went into the shadow realm to find her soul, Claire was also able to win for control over Morgana's staff when she clamed her body back. Claire's possession had even allowed her to gain some of Morgana's memories, one of those memories shows Claire that the blue jewel in Jim's amulet is a map to Merlin's tomb, and only destroying it can help them find it. When Barbara Lake's memories returned she informs Claire's parents of her, Jim and Toby's secret. At first Jim was on Claire's side to keep their big secret from their families, but after Barbara convinces Jim that she, the Nuñezs and Nana Domzalski have a right to know of the dangers their children get into, Jim tells Claire that it was time for them to tell their families the truth. Mrs. Nuñez wanted to alter the town of the danger she just learned, but Claire, Jim and the others were able to talk her out of it.

As the two and their friends find Merlin's tomb, but had failed to stop Gummar and Angor Rot from taking the wizard's staff, they did come across the said wizard who has been sleeping for centuries until the jewel of Jim's damaged amulet woke Merlin up. Luckily Merlin was able to repair Jim's amulet and when a small part of it was missing Jim asks Claire to give them one of her hair clips, to replace the missing piece. When Merlin had showed them his memories of Killahead Claire could tell that seeing the faces of their dead friends were upsetting Jim, as he blames himself for not being able to save Vendel or Draal. Now that Merlin is on their side and wants to help them defeat Gummar, as well as Morgana to gain back his lost magic, Jim and Claire are given a list of items Merlin needs for a spell; while he makes Claire and Toby their own suits of armour. Either of when knew what the said spell is or what it is for, until Merlin informs Jim that it will turn him into a troll. So he can be both troll and hunter. Because Claire had left to find Jim's mother at the time, she didn't learn this until Jim made his decision to go along with Merlin's plan. Before Jim immerged him in the spell he thought about Claire and the times they shared together, as a human.

Because the drained of life Heartstone prevents the trolls from staying in Arcadia they have little choice but to leave for New Jerzy, where another Heartstone is said to be. As Jim says his goodbyes to his mother, he first thought that he'll be saying goodbye to Claire as well, but the number of Claire's credits allows her to graduate early and this has her parents being already with her joining Jim and the trolls on their journey. This pleases Jim as it means that they'll stay together, and before the two leave with Merlin and the trolls they promise Toby and their loved ones that they'll return someday.

3Below Jim and Claire didn't appear a lot in 3Below, since the second story arc is of the friends the two had made in "In Good Hands" and only appear during part one. Due to it taking place in the same timeline as part three of Trollhunters, while part two takes place after Jim and Claire had left Arcadia; but Toby does mention the two from time to time. Part two of 3Below also briefly shows a battle that Jim (as well as Claire off screen) gets himself caught up it; Claire's involvement in the said battle is later revealed in Wizards.

Part 1 On one of their troll hunts, Jim, Claire and their friends were chasing after the Trickster Troll, Porgon, just before they caught up to him the item that Porgon finds has caused him to disappear. Porgon's disappearance also began a time loop that only Jim remembers, due to his amulet, until he dumped into someone who also remembers it and asks Aja Tarron to use her shield to protect Claire and the other's memories of it as well. With Claire now being aware of the time loop and had gained new friends who can help her and Jim stop Porgon, as well as the none stop time jumps he creates with the piece of Akiridion tech, the two and their friends begin to for a plan of attack. Even though they were able to stop Porgon and get the alien technology away from the said troll, Jim and Claire had ended up exposing both their and the Tarron's big secrets. In order to fix this Krel gets everyone to make one final time jump that will have Jim and Claire take out Porgon on the night they first encountered him, but it will also mean that they'll lose their memories of the time loop and the friends they had made during it. With faith that fate will bring Jim and Claire back to their new Akiridion friends again, they created their last time jump together.

Wizards When the two were attacked by someone who call himself the Green Knight, he injures Jim by piercing his chest with a small onyx shard that is making its way to his heart. After Merlin helps the two and Binky escape to the safety of the flying Camelot castle, where the said wizard places the Trollhunter in a crystal stasis chamber to buy them time, Claire felt terrible for not being able to protect Jim; and believes that she would have been able to do so if she still had her staff. Not long after the mysterious Green Knight and the Arcane Order finds them their attacks on the flying castle causes Jim's stasis chamber to move around it, while Claire does what she can to ensure that she doesn't lose him again. After it fell into the time rift to the past Claire goes in after Jim, with Douxie and Steve beside her. As they get trapped in a era where is was dangerous to be a troll or wielder of magic, since Claire is now able to use shadow magic with out the Shadow Staff and had used her new powers to save Jim from the sun's light when King Arthur ordered for his death. Claire tries to save Jim when from being taken to the castle's dungeon, but Douxie tells her to not interfere until they can come up with an idea to save Jim. Along with searching for away for them to return back to their home time. The one good thing that came out of their trip to the past is that it has caused the shard in Jim's chest to be frozen in place.

Rise of the Titans Fanon Jlaire is the main ship of the Trollhunters/Tales of Arcadia series. After 3Below had Jim forming a friendship connection with Aja Tarron in "D'aja Vu", before the timeline was altered to keep both of their secrets, fans began to rival Jlaire with Ajim. Just as part three of Trollhunters and Wizards inspired fans to also rival Jlaire with the ship between Claire x Douxie. Since some fans compare the look Claire gave Jim and Aja in "D'aja Vu" to the one Jim gave Douxie in "Night Patroll". When they aren't shipping Jlaire beside Darby or Staja.

After Jim was turned into a half Troll in "Jimhunter", a few fans began to draw Claire as half human troll so she can be just like him. Some role switch AUs of both the fandom and ship have Claire as the Trollhunter while Jim is a half-human Changeling who becomes close to Claire, despite the fact that he was ordered to take the amulet from her. Troll!Jim and the fanon Changeling!Jim has also got fans to place him and Claire in a Beauty and the Beast AU, which later became a trophy in the ship when Claire's love for Jim turns him back into a human and gives him a second chance at life. There also been fans who compare Claire and TrollJim to Elisa Esposito and the Amphibian Man from The Shape of Water, and other human-nonhuman couples. Since most Jlaire fanwork had commonly depict Jim as his half troll self, due to Merlin's statement of Jim remaining that way for the rest of his life; until Claire's love for Jim made him human again at the end of Wizards.

On AO3, it is the most written ship for both characters. The ship is also supported on FanFitcion.net, Tumblr and Deviantart.

"Destiny… Destiny is… a gift. Some go their entire lives living an existence of quiet desperation, never learning the truth that what feels as though… a burden pushing down upon our shoulders… is actually the sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor. That to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means to be a hero. Don’t think. Become."

Jim.

James "Jim" Lake Jr. is the main protagonist of the Tales of Arcadia franchise, serving as the titular protagonist of Trollhunters and Rise of the Titans, a major character of Wizards, and a minor character of 3Below.

He is the first human Trollhunter, the new wielder of Excalibur, a student of Arcadia Oaks High, the leader of Team Trollhunters, the leader of the Guardians of Arcadia, the mentee of Blinky Galadrigal, best friends with Toby Domzalski, the son of Barbara and James Lake Sr., and the current boyfriend of Claire Nuñez.

Official Biography "On the surface, Jim appears to be an average 15-year-old student. He goes to school, stays out of trouble, looks after his mom, and selflessly puts others above himself. But there's a piece of him that yearns for a life of adventure outside the doldrums of suburbia. When destiny calls and a magical Amulet chooses Jim to be the first human Trollhunter, the protector of a secret world of Trolls living beneath his hometown, Jim is thrust into the greatest adventure of his life. Whether it's rogue gnomes, mischievous goblins, or Trolls of the worst kind, Jim has a lot to learn if he wants to live to see graduation."

History

Backstory Around his fifth birthday, Jim's father walked out on him and his mother, Barbara. His mother then told him that they needed to take better care of each other. Jim has cared for his mother ever since.

Sometime in kindergarten, Jim met Toby Domzalski, who became his new best friend.

Eventually, Claire Nuñez came to town, and about a year before he found the amulet, Jim met her at a party held by her mother and subsequently fell deeply in love with her after seeing her dance alone to a song by Papa Skull. Although Jim didn't think she knew he existed, Claire had, in fact, noticed him and was impressed that he had at least attempted to dance during the party, and noted that unlike the boys she knew at her old prep school, he was willing to do things with his mother. This caused Claire to want to get to know him better.[1]

Trollhunters (Part One) Finding the Amulet Jim and Toby meet up before school one day and decide to ride their bikes to school together. Jim makes lunch for himself, his mother, and Toby. He then meets Toby outside and they make their way to school. They decide to take a shortcut to school through the large bridge (the canals), where they discover the Amulet of Daylight in the rubble of Kanjigar's body. The amulet starts ominously chanting Jim's name, which prompts the boy to pick it up and take it to school. They then continue to get to school, not knowing that two trolls, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! are eavesdropping on them.

When they arrive at school, Jim stares dreamily at Claire, not paying attention to what is going on. When class ends, Jim's teacher, Mr. Strickler expresses concern over Jim's performance in class. He says that he understands that Jim and his mother have a lot on their plate, so he decides to schedule a parent-teacher conference to discuss Jim's behavior. He also gives relationship advice to Jim telling him that ”talking is more effective than staring at”.

In gym class, Jim tries to impress Claire by speaking in Spanish to her. While Claire is slightly impressed, Jim stutters after that, unable to say anything, making it an awkward encounter. Claire suggests that Jim should try out for the school's play of Romeo and Juliet. After class, Jim and Toby see that Steve is shoving Eli into a locker (after the latter told him about the trolls that have been lurking in town), and Jim decides to stand up to Steve. When Jim makes snarky comments about Steve, the jock tries to punch him in the face him in the face, only to be stopped by Coach Lawrence. He then challenges Jim to a fight.

After school, Jim goes home to watch TV and decides to sell the amulet online since it wasn't speaking a word. All of sudden, he hears something going on downstairs and and believed that it was just raccoons. He goes downstairs, only to find that it was none other than Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! Jim is instantly frightened by the two, who explain to him that the amulet is magical and he's been chosen to protect both worlds, human and troll alike, from the forces of evil, which causes Jim to faint.

The next day at school, Jim goes to Mr. Strickler's office to explain what had happened, but since he probably wouldn't believe him, he tells him that he is trying out for chess, stuttering frequently. Strickler commends him on this "extracurricular activity" and Jim happily leaves, not knowing that Strickler notices the amulet in his bag while he is leaving.

When the amulet starts glowing again, he goes to his backyard to look at it closer. Its gears shift, and Jim notices an incantation: "For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command!" He says the words and suddenly, a suit of armor appears on him and the Sword of Daylight appears as well, leaving the boy in amazement and shock. Little does Jim realize that Mr. Strickler and Bular are aware of his new mantle and want to steal the amulet for themselves.

The next day, Jim shows Toby his new armor, much to the latter's amazement. Just then, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! return to Jim's house and explain his new position as the Trollhunter. They also tell them about the previous Trollhunter before Jim, Kanjigar the Courageous, who died protecting the amulet from a ruthless troll named Bular. Jim begins to doubt his new position as he fears he would be killed, so he decides to give the amulet back, but Blinky states he cannot refuse it, giving him a motivational speech about destiny. Toby then suggests to the trolls that they should give Jim a day to process everything they told him.

The next day at school, the Trollhunter Armor suddenly activates, Strickler notices and claims it was not “proper school attire”, and Jim uses the Romeo and Juliet play auditions to attempt to hide the true nature of the armor. Forced to audition, Jim uses Blinky's speech about destiny and winds up getting the part.

First Arrival in Trollmarket After outrunning Bular and being guided to safety by Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!!, Jim and Toby are taken to the land of Trollmarket and are very intrigued by the environment and all of its inhabitants. However, the trolls do not take kindly to the arrival of humans in their town, much less having a human as their protector, especially Draal the Deadly, Kanjigar's son, who wanted to be the new hunter instead of Jim.

When Jim starts his training, Jim begins having difficulty with the dangerous and fearful tasks. Then, Draal decides to battle Jim for honor, claiming it is a sparring exercise, which Jim has no choice but to accept. After Draal beats him to a pulp, Jim questions the amulet's choice and believes that he's not the Trollhunter. He tries to get rid of the amulet, but it won't leave him alone as Blinky proclaims it is now bonded with him and it's a mantle he cannot refuse. Jim has no choice but to accept his newly found fate.

The Double Life Begins For his first task as the Trollhunter, Jim is sent to stop a gnome named Chompsky, who is stealing everything in Trollmarket, and he even steals the Amulet of Daylight. Jim enters the Furgolator, used to compress minerals — he is the first human to enter it- and it shrunk him so he could enter the small hole and capture the rogue gnome. After capturing him, Jim is still shrunken on the same day that he is supposed to give his Spanish report. Jim and Toby then come up with a plan to give the report while the shrinking wears off.

Jim decides to give his Spanish report via webcam inside a dollhouse to make it seem like he is full size, but runs into some trouble when Chompsky starts rampaging through Toby's house and he starts going back to his normal size. Luckily, Jim gets a passing grade and nobody becomes suspicious. Unfortunately, Jim starts neglecting rehearsals for the school play, which sort of strains his relationship with Claire.

Discovering the Killahead Bridge Jim and Toby go on a field trip with their class to a museum of ancient history. Jim tries to get closer to Claire, only to be interrupted by Toby claiming they have a “really bad” problem. They discover that some goblins are on the loose. They arrive at Eli's house, where the goblins last attacked to stop them. Unfortunately, the goblins get away and leave with Toby's watch.

That night, Jim and Toby track down the watch and break into the museum to see what the goblins are up to, and to save the museum curator. While sneaking in, they find out that the curator, Ms. Nomura, is actually a changeling: a shapeshifting creature that takes the form of its human counterpart when swapped at birth. During the battle, Jim uses Blinky's advice to outsmart Nomura and actually causes her to squish the goblin leader, which makes the goblins turn on her and attack her. During the battle, Toby discovers some sort of bridge, which they believe to be the Killahead Bridge. He takes a photo of it, but the picture comes out blurry as they are running away. The boys are later arrested from breaking into a museum, but luckily (thanks to Strickler's company), Nomura doesn't press any charges against them. To cover themselves up, they proclaim they broke into the museum for Toby's Tubby Tracker watch. After Barbara asks Strickler out on a date (to Jim's disbelief), she crossly grounds Jim until he apologizes to Nomura for what he did.

While sadly disobeying his mom, Jim sneaks out of his house and goes to Trollmarket to meet up with Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! Blinky then informs Jim about the changelings, and how there might be more lurking among them in Arcadia.

The Battle Begins The day for Jim's battle against Draal begins. Since this is probably his biggest battle yet, he leaves letters to Claire, Toby, and Barbara in case he doesn't live, telling them what is going on and how he truly feels. Jim begins to start studying troll fighting tactics with the amulet, which also is a translator for troll letters, and mysteriously turns pages to important info, letting him read the key information.

Jim heads to Trollmarket, where the battle begins and it becomes quite heated. Using Blinky's information from the book, he manages to defeat Draal and send him hanging from an abyss. Rather than push Draal off the cliff as he is pressured to from the others (and Draal himself), he follows his moral compass and rescues Draal, causing the troll to be shunned by everyone and humiliated.

Jim arrives back home and sees Nomura with his mother. While Jim is telling Nomura off, Barbara falls asleep (due to the sleeping powder in her tea) and Nomura changes into her changeling form to get rid of Jim. Since Jim is nowhere near his amulet, he is helpless against her, but manages to hold her off with a frying pan, and forces the amulet to come back to him. Just when all hope seems lost, Draal suddenly shows up and defeats Nomura. Jim asks why, and Draal replies that he's decided to become Jim's protector/trainer to help him be more prepared for his upcoming battles.

Search for the Changelings Jim and Toby take Blinky, AAARRRGGHH!!!, and Vendel to the museum to see the Killahead Bridge, but it has vanished somehow (the changelings moved it, unbeknownst to the Trollhunters) and no one believes him (except for Blinky, of course). Blinky says that he will try to find more evidence while Jim continues his training.

Back in school, Jim's high school career is going downhill, and he has become Steve's understudy for the school play since he keeps missing rehearsals. Claire takes note of this and decides to ask him to come to her house for a study date since he doesn't understand most of the algebra homework Mrs. Janeth (who was completely furious he wasn’t showing up for rehearsal) but her true intentions were to help him after she read the letter he wrote to her.

Jim and Toby go back to Trollmarket to get proof that the bridge is becoming a threat. Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! take them to a troll named "RotGuts", who provides them with something called a "Gaggletack", which is basically a horseshoe made of pure iron and has the ability to reveal the true nature of a changeling through physical contact. Jim and Toby try to search for the Changelings, but nobody complies. They touch people with the gaggletack and throw them, but everyone thinks they are weirdos.

While Toby is at the dentist, Claire and Jim are at Claire's house having their study session. Here, Jim and Claire start to do some bonding, and Claire thinks that Jim's letter was a metaphor for Jim's psychological issues, and thanks Jim for his compliments in the letter, also saying that his words are beautiful. As soon as they study, Toby calls Jim for help and Jim leaves hastily, which leaves Claire suspicious.

Jim arrives at the dentist, where Gladys Groe is attacking Blinky, Toby, and AAARRRGGHH!!! Luckily, Jim manages to vanquish the changeling, but also all the evidence they have for the bridge. On the plus side, Jim accomplished Blinky's rule of "finishing the fight." Little do they know that a new changeling has been selected, who is later dubbed "NotEnrique".

Finding NotEnrique The next day, Jim and Toby find a stuffed bunny (Suzy Snooze) in an alleyway, and Claire claims that it belongs to her baby brother, Enrique. The boys then conclude that Enrique must have been swapped with a changeling since Blinky told them earlier that changelings are switched with their human counterparts at birth.

To investigate, Jim arrives at Claire's house to babysit Enrique and find out. When Enrique somehow starts causing trouble, Jim loses the gaggletack and now, the others have to get a new one.

Toby thinks that Jim is being paranoid and says he is scaring the baby and being mean, while cradling the baby. However, Jim manages to land the gaggletack and reveals that he is indeed a changeling.

When the gang arrives, Enrique is revealed to be replaced with a changeling, who starts trashing the place. Now that they have proof, they can do something about the bridge. Unfortunately, this leads to Jim being in big trouble with Claire, and Claire getting into trouble with her mom and dad (as they think Jim held an out-of-control party at the Nuñez Estate after seeing the damage done). Claire said she hopes to never see Jim again, refusing to return any of his texts.

Jim's Birthday Arrives Jim's birthday eventually arrives, but he does not seem interested in celebrating it, despite the insistence of his friends and mother. This is because it reminds him of the day his dad walked out on him on his fifth birthday, leaving only a bike kit as a present. Luckily, Jim is given a chance to test drive a Vespa that he has had his eyes on for quite some time. However, another sub-species of a troll called a Stalkling shows up to attack Jim.

Jim learns from Blinky that he cannot be harmed unless he is truly all by himself, so he decides to make sure he is in the company of someone at all times. Jim says that Toby can keep him company, his mom can pick him up, and he can go to rehearsal. Claire starts talking to him when she realizes that there was no party but becomes suspicious. Jim apologizes to her during rehearsal, via the lines for the play. She forgives him, and they wait outside for company.

When Claire's ride comes, Jim’s mom calls saying she is going to be a little late. Without a ride to take him home, Jim is left on his own and tries to get away from the Stalking, but it catches up to him and carries him into the clouds. As Toby and AAARRRGGHH!!! try to get him, lightning appears and Jim uses it on his sword to strike the Stalking and turn it into stone, in which he succeeds. He starts falling down after taking a blast of lightning to the head and AAARRRGGHH!!! manages to catch him.

A few minutes before his birthday ends, Jim goes back to Trollmarket to receive Blinky's present, which is the unassembled Vespa Jim always wanted. Blinky thinks that they could assemble together. Jim loves the gift and claims it as the greatest gift he has ever gotten.

Strickler's Dark Secret One day, while training with Draal, Jim feels a little nervous about talking to Claire and the play. To help him, Draal gives him a special necklace called a Grit-Shaka, which will boost his confidence and fearlessness. Unfortunately, Jim begins to act smug, arrogant, rude, and disrespectful towards his friends, teachers, and classmates. To make matters worse, Jim decides to go fight Bular himself in the sewer. In this battle, Jim hears Bular call him "Young Atlas," which is Strickler's nickname for him, which causes Jim to figure out that Strickler is a changeling. During the fight, his Grit-Shaka gets smashed, reverting him back to his old self, which helps him use his cleverness to escape.

Having found out about Strickler being a changeling, Jim decides to come up with a plan; he'll keep Strickler occupied while he's having dinner at the Lake residence and the others will sneak into Strickler's office for some things that could help them get Claire's brother back and find any information on the whereabouts of the bridge.

During dinner, Jim and Strickler look at each other with grinning faces, knowing of their dark secrets. When Barbara leaves to get dessert, Jim and Strickler start fighting each other, threatening one another at the same time. When Barbara's back is turned, Strickler changes into his Changeling form, threatening Jim to hand over the amulet, but Jim refuses to comply. When the dinner ends, Strickler leaves the Lake House, with Jim acting subtle, not knowing that Strickler replaced the amulet with a fake one. Draal then shows up with Claire (who fainted after seeing Draal in the basement), but Jim quickly told him to hide before his mother could see him.

Claire Finds Out When Jim figures out that the amulet isn't helping him get Claire's baby brother back, he becomes stuck in a jam in his mission to rescue Enrique. Since they can't go into the Darklands themselves, they send Gnome Chompsky to go in and find Enrique. However, the rope holding him snaps, rendering him trapped in the Darklands.

Before the gang can think of something new, NotEnrique arrives at the house and warns them that he killed one of the goblins, Fragwa, and now they think Claire is responsible and that the bridge has been completed. Jim goes to rescue Claire, while Toby and AAARRRGGHH!!! follow Jim to protect him, after NotEnrique tells them that they have all the bridge pieces and just need Jim. Blinky takes NotEnrique to find out where the bridge is being held.

Jim arrives at Claire's house to warn her (by sneaking through the window), but she will not listen to him and thinks that he is just plain crazy (after he explains everything). He tries to show her by using the amulet, but as a fake it doesn't work, rendering him even crazier to Claire. He then tells her to check his baby brother‘s crib, and she thinks he did "something" to Enrique. Jim then tells her if she wants to get her brother back to take his hand, which she reluctantly accepts.

All of a sudden, the goblins show up to attack them and Jim takes her to the woods for safety. When the goblins arrive, Jim starts getting attacked by the goblins, where he tries to re-activate the Amulet of Daylight, only to find out that the amulet is a fake. They try to fight off the goblins, but without the power of the amulet, he is defenseless.

However, the amulet, sensing Jim’s high amount of distress, flies out of Strickler's and Bular's hands, flying at high speed to Jim, who activates his amulet. Claire is shocked and speechless, but also impressed by Jim's amazing abilities, while at the same time regretting how unfair she has been to his new double life situation. She is very sorry for being quite hostile to Jim, misjudging him, and even not believing him.

When Jim tries to explain what happened to Enrique, Nomura arrives and starts attacking Jim. When he tells Claire to run, she refuses, but then gets some help from her parents. Nomura decides to not kill Jim because apparently, they need him to use the amulet to unlock the bridge. Just then, Toby and AAARRRGGHH!!! arrive at the same time as Claire and her dad, who find Jim unconscious and hurt (as Nomura left, knowing she could not take them all on). Claire chooses to stay by his side while he recuperates in the hospital.

The Battle for the Bridge Jim wakes up in the hospital, where he receives a call that Bular has kidnapped Blinky for ransom. If Jim doesn't arrive with the amulet and open the bridge, Blinky will be destroyed, leaving Jim even more conflicted than before. To make matters worse, Barbara is growing even more worried by the second, and Jim still refuses to tell her what is going on, leaving Barbara more heartbroken and concerned.

Jim leaves the house to go fight Bular and rescue Blinky. He tells Draal that if he does not make it, he hopes Draal will be the next Trollhunter, and Draal hopes it won’t come to that. Jim arrives at the museum, where he sees Bular and the rest of his minions ready for Jim to use the amulet. Jim goes to the bridge and is about to put the amulet in the bridge (despite Blinky's warnings), when, as planned, the rest of the Trollhunters arrive to back Jim up.

A huge battle between the heroes and the villains ensues, but Stricklander manages to outsmart Jim (by using Jim’s hand to put the amulet in) and installs the amulet onto the bridge, which opens up the portal to the Darklands. Everybody starts to get sucked into the vortex, and Nomura enters the Darklands. Draal manages to use his strength to free the amulet and cause the bridge to explode. Jim finds that Draal's left arm has turned into stone. However, Bular has escaped and is about to destroy the Trollhunters.

Our heroes manage to escape into the sewer, but Bular chases Jim to the bridge where Kanjigar died. The two engage in an epic battle on the bridge, just as the sun is setting down. Bular manages to capture Jim and is about to finish him off, but Jim uses his newly found powers from the armor to turn Bular to stone and send him into the river (via summoning his sword through Bular and using his size against Bular). Blinky, AAARRRGGHH!!!, Toby, and Draal (now with a mechanical arm) congratulate Jim from his heroism, and Draal gains a newfound admiration and respect for Jim (for avenging his father).

Jim manages to make it to the play in time and the performance goes on as planned, which immensely helped in mending and strengthening his growing relationship with Claire. Then, during a celebration at Trollmarket, Jim vows to rescue Enrique and find a way into the Darklands, especially since Gunmar and Stricklander will stop at nothing to make them even.

Entering the Void Now that Bular has been taken care of, Jim is still conflicted on whether or not to tell his mother the truth, Claire's brother still being trapped in the Darklands, and Claire now knowing about the world of the trolls. He and Toby take Claire to Trollmarket for the first time, where she instantly proves to be an expert (having read the history book Blinky gave Jim and from NotEnrique's tutoring).

Suddenly, Jim is summoned to the Void, a place between worlds inhabited by previous Trollhunters. Kanjigar reveals to Jim that they are aware of what Jim has been doing, and condemn him for his choice to go into the Darklands since it could endanger his friends. They inform Jim that the only possible way to escape the Darklands is by destroying Gunmar. Jim informs his friends of this problem and decides that there might be a way to fix it.

Spring Fling King Jim begins having strange dreams about fighting Gunmar, and how he is going to defeat him. One day during a school assembly, Jim is nominated from prom king, along with Steve and Eli. Toby encourages Jim to join in the election because it could help them become more popular, to which Jim reluctantly agrees.

Later, Jim goes back to the Void for some advice from the other hunters, but they inform him that there is no possible way to get rid of Gunmar for good. However, Blinky calls Jim back to the library because he has some interesting news for him, Claire, and Toby. Together, they find that there are three special gems called the Triumbric Stones, which are tied to Gunmar's lifeblood and can help destroy Gunmar once and for all. However, they are hidden in three different locations around the world (Gatto's Keep, the Quagawump Swamplands, and the Krubera Caves) which means that the Trollhunters will have to go on their very first quest. The next day, Jim, Steve, and Eli compete against each other for the theme of the spring dance. While Steve and Eli are coming up with their own respective ideas (Hawaiian for Steve and 80s for Eli), Jim sees a Golem outside created by Strickler and Angor Rot to test his abilities.

Jim fights the golem, which results in his clothes being covered in mud. After the golem is vanquished, Jim goes back into the gym all dirty. Toby and Claire use this as a metaphor for Jim’s theme: moles. Jim wins the challenge since moles are the mascot of the school. Unfortunately, Strickler returns to the school as the new principal (having done something horrible to the old one), which leads to some large conflicts at school.

The Quest Begins When the quest for retrieving the stones begins, Jim covers it up by telling Barbara that he is going camping with his friends, but Barbara is still angry at Jim for getting himself hurt and not explaining the truth to her, though Jim still leaves. During the time that Jim leaves, Barbara and Stricklander have another ”lunch date” where Stricklander places a binding spell (for his own protection from Jim and his allies), entwining their fates.

Jim meets his friends in Trollmarket to start the mission. Blinky takes them to a magical gyre that trolls use to get around the world in record time. Blinky takes the gang inside the gyre and takes them to Argentina, where the first stone is located. They arrive there and end up at a place called, "Ojos del Salado", a village underneath a volcano, which is also the home of Gatto, the keeper of the stone. When they locate Gatto, Jim tries to explain what is going on, but Gatto will not give them the Birthstone unless they answer his riddle, "Which begins and has no end, and ends all that which begins?" The Trollhunters try to think of the answer but are too confused to find a logical solution. At the last second though, Claire finds the answer, which is "death", since it ends people's lives and nothing comes after it happens. Unfortunately, Gatto does not take it so well and swallows both Blinky and Toby.

While Blinky and Toby find the Birthstone and try to find a way to get out of the stomach, the others battle Gatto's minions. With the help of Toby's tacos, Toby and Blinky manage to escape the stomach with the Birthstone. However, Blinky also seems to have had a little encounter with one of the spells in the stomach...

A Whole New Blinky Jim goes back into Trollmarket to continue the quest, only to find that Blinky has transformed into a human as a side effect from one of the spells in Grotto's stomach. Luckily, the effect will only last a few days, so Jim decides to show Blinky the wonders of being a human including surviving the daylight, going to the bathroom, eating human food, and having only one set of eyes and arms. When Barbara arrives home early, she asks who Blinky is, and what he is doing in their house. Jim lies by saying that Blinky is his new guidance counselor, to which Barbara easily buys.

As Jim and Claire take Blinky to look at the sunset, Angor Rot creates glass monsters to attack them. While the gang fights the monsters, Jim sees Angor Rot behind a tree and goes to investigate what is going on. He encounters Angor, who traps him in a large force field. Anger decides to spare Jim's life because he apparently has a worse fate than death in mind for the hunter. Anger then uses his staff to drain some of Jim's powers and use them against him in their next battle.

The Next Stone Jim is still struggling to ask Claire out to the dance, but also needs to help Blinky adjust to his new life in the human world.

Jim then goes to Trollmarket, having been called by Vendel for something regarding the Birthstone. Vendel then tells him to cut the Birthstone to unlock its power. Jim uses some tools to cut the stone and then unlocks some sort of geode in the center. When Jim asks why Vendel is helping him, Vendel replied it is because he knows how determined Jim is to save Enrique, which means he will need some extra power in his armor. Vendel installs the gemstone into Jim's amulet, which causes the armor to become red, confusing both of them. Vendel then tells Jim that the second stone, the Killstone, is in the Quagawump Swamplands, not knowing that a goblin spy was secretly watching them for Angor and Strickler.

The Trollhunters go to the gyre to make their way to the Quagawumps in the swampy lands of Florida. However, since the inhabitants are hostile towards outsiders, they will need a mole to assist them. Since Toby looks like their late king, he will pretend to be the reincarnation of him, which will gain the trust of the trolls.

They arrive at the swamp, where the Quagawumps are easily fooled into thinking that Toby is their king. The trolls start worshipping him and throw a party in his honor. When Toby starts making music, which gives everybody dance fever. Jim is reluctant to do so since he doesn't know how to dance, so Claire teaches him how to move his feet to the music and they start dancing together.

Things go smoothly, until Blungo the Pretend King arrives and shows the other Quagawumps that Toby is not the Shattered King. Before Blungo can attack Toby, Angor Rot arrives and turns Blungo to stone, causing an epic battle. During the battle, Claire falls into a portal with Angor and manages to obtain his Shadow Staff, which creates portals, but unfortunately loses the Killstone as well. Claire decides to keep the staff, and the Trollhunters bid a heartfelt goodbye to their new friends.

Hand Truck Competition While training Claire to use the Shadow Staff, Bagdwella arrives with a box for the Trollhunters to deliver to her sister in Utah. Since he has to compete in another prom king challenge after lunch period, he has Toby and Claire deliver the package for him.

Jim arrives at the competition, where the contestants have to keep their hand on a truck and if someone takes their hand off, they are eliminated from the game and the winners will become prom king and queen. Sometime later, Strickland arrives to mock Jim, which also causes Shannon and Mary to be eliminated from the contest, making Darci the winner and leaving Jim, Steve, and Eli the only remaining competitors. Steve begins to mock Jim into letting his hand go, but Jim stands his ground and refuses to surrender. When Steve pathetically starts sobbing, Jim lets his hand off, making Steve gloat about his victory, but it also means that he lost too, because they forgot about Eli, making him the winner of the prom king challenge.

He then goes to Trollmarket where Vendel lies to him saying that the package was successfully delivered to spare him some reprimand. He then pities him and says that they may actually be useful in some time.

Jim's Worst Nightmare When the students at school start acting weirder than usual, Jim and Toby suspect that something supernatural must be occurring, so they go to Strickler's office to see if he had anything to do with it, only to find his office empty. Just then, a pixie goes into Toby's nose and starts making him hallucinate his nana, giving him a mental breakdown. Jim calls Blinky to ask him what is causing the hallucinations, and Blinky replies that the pixies are used to create hallucinations to distract enemies and realizes that Angor is in the school.

Angor Rot then arrives at the school to confront Jim, who is ready with his battle armor. Before Jim can attack, Angor uses the spell that he cast on Jim before to take the sword and use it against him. Jim and Angor engage in a battle, with Angor using the sword and Jim using extra weapons from the armor. When Jim ends up in the P.E room, a pixie flies into his ear and causes him to hallucinate the Killahead Bridge and his loved ones all turned into statues. Jim tries to fight Angor without seeing him, but it is no use: he has the upper hand and grabs Jim, holding the sword up against his neck. Angor Rot informs Jim of the Inferna Copula and wants Jim to steal it so he can get his freedom back, and in return he will sever the connection between his mother and Strickler. Jim reluctantly agrees, and Angor sends the pixies back into their chamber.

Removing the Ring Jim, Toby, and Claire meet at Claire's house to discuss on how to possibly steal the Inferna Coupla from Strickler, but all of their plans are greatly flawed, so Jim and Toby decide to go to Trollmarket and use Blinky's library for help. Jim and Toby arrive at RotGut's place to find a spell, but they are not helpful, so Blinky decides to take them to his library for a hand. Blinky informs the boys that the books used to belong to his brother, whom he had lost long ago in the Battle of Killahead Bridge. The two begin looking into the books for some answers, but they cannot find anything that'll help them.

Toby then finds a page about a vial of some sort of potion called "Elix-Lore", which allows the drinker to consume knowledge at a voracious pace. Jim quickly buys one off of RotGut's. Unfortunately, Toby didn't follow the instructions and the words in the books start flying into his mouth, making him a Troll History bookworm. However, the words start flying all over the room out of control, but Toby also gives Jim some important information on how to get the ring from Strickler. They must gain a magical item called the Kairosect, which will help them get the ring, but it is located at Gatto's Keep. Just then, Toby starts spewing out different letters while trying to tell Jim the secret of life itself, which causes the potion to wear off.

The Trollhunters head to Gatto's Keep to get the Kairosect. They manage to outsmart Gatto and retrieve the Kairosect. They get back to Trollmarket and discover it is an artifact that makes the user travel faster than the speed of light. Jim, Toby, and Claire begin to picture all the accomplishments they can do with this device, but Blinky warns them that only a single person can step out of time, the time-stopping effect only lasts 43 minutes and nine seconds, and it can only be used thrice. Unfortunately, Blinky wasted the first two uses, so they only have one chance to get the ring back.

Jim goes home and starts cramming for the Spanish final. Barbara arrives and informs Jim that she is going to be reaching out to Blinky, but Jim is too busy to pay attention.

The next day, Jim is becoming very stressed out and frustrated; he failed the exam, he is conflicted on whether or not to go with Angor's deal, Bagdwella has an infestation in her house, Steve is mocking him over the next challenge, Blinky has changed back into a troll at a bad time, and it just generally seems that the whole world is expecting him to do everything for everyone. When Jim can't take it anymore, he screams his head off, runs away, and decides to use the Kairosect to freeze time and make his problems vanish.

Remembering that he only has forty-three minutes and nine seconds to get the ring, Jim hops on his scooter and races against the clock. He goes into the hallway and finds the stacking contest in progress. Jim uses this to get back at Steve for being mean to him, finish the test, stop Barbara from breaking into Blinky's stall, bring Blinky back home, take care of the gnomes, and steal the ring from Strickler. When Jim puts on the ring, he gains control of Angor Rot's soul, but also realizes that he can get the Killstone back.

Jim races to Angor Rot's location in the sewer to swipe the stone, but just when he is about to get the stone back, time starts back up again, which means that Angor is after his ring. Right before Jim can put on the ring to control Angor, Angor uses his powers to cause the ring to fly off of Jim and roll onto the floor. Jim tries to defend himself with the armor, but Angor steals the sword and destroys the ring and, unfortunately, his soul along with it, rendering him completely soulless and free to destroy Jim and Strickler. Luckily, Jim manages to escape the sewer and present his friends with the Killstone. Unfortunately, this makes Angor Rot a greater threat than before.

The Battle for AAARRRGGGHH!!! During the middle of their discussion, members of AAARRRGGHH!!!'s trolls race called "The Kruberas" and their queen, Usurna, arrive unexpectedly. Jim asks about the Triumbric Stone, but the queen had lost it years ago. To celebrate this glorious occasion, Vendel has Jim and AAARRRGGHH!!! represent Trollmarket in a friendly game of PyroBligst.

When AAARRRGGHH!!! refuses to participate, Draal decides to substitute as Jim's partner. Unfortunately, Jim's no match for the Kruberas and Draal is easily defeated. Just when Jim is about to lose, AAARRRGGHH!!! arrives and helps Jim win the game. Sadly, this also reveals that AAARRRGGHH!!! has been cursed to be turned to stone by Creeper Sun poison and that he has been too scared to tell the others. Usurna tells AAARRRGGHH!!! that the only he can survive if he goes back with his Krubera brethren, to which AAARRRGGHH!!! reluctantly agrees.

However, AAARRRGGHH!!!'s loyalty to Toby is too great, so he decides to stay with the other Trollhunters until Angor Rot is defeated. While Jim eavesdrops on his two friends, Strickler arrives and asks Jim for some help in defeating Angor Rot, but Jim is understandably skeptical, knocks him out cold, and ties him up to a chair.

Teaming Up with Strickler The very next morning, Jim wakes Strickler up with a sock and tries to call his friends for some assistance, but Strickler warns him that his friends will not help against a deadly assassin like Angor.

Jim and Strickler plan to get Strickler as far away from Arcadia-Oaks as possible, and put him in disguise. Draal, however, warns him that Angor will still come after him, and a mustache and a hat won’t fool the professional assassin. In the kitchen, Jim, Draal, and Strickler discuss how to defeat Angor Rot, but cannot think of anything. Interrupting their conversation, Barbara calls Jim and informs him that she will be staying at the hospital for the entire weekend, ensuring her safety. This sparks the idea that they can “hold down the fort” and take back the tactical advantage with booby traps.

That night, the three set up a trap for Angor to use the stones to strike him. Just then, they notice Angor's eye spying on them. They try to catch it, but it keeps escaping. Luckily, Jim manages to capture it in the kitchen. Unfortunately, it appears that Angor has arrived already, so they prepare their weapons to strike him, but it isn't Angor: it is Barbara, who wonders what's going on, now that she saw Draal and the weapons. Jim tries to lie again, but the jig is up: he has to tell her the truth.

Unfortunately, Barbara knocks Draal out cold, so he cannot defend the hole that he made to the sewers. This lets Angor Rot slip into the house.

Jim explains about his position as the Trollhunter, and that he has to do it for the rest of his life. Barbara expresses great concern for Jim, based on what being the Trollhunter has already put him through. All of a sudden, Angor arrives and begins attacking Jim. While Strickler and Barbara go downstairs, Jim battles Angor with all his might. When they arrive in Jim's bedroom, Strickler activates the trap, encasing Angor in a prison and is surrounded by UV light bulbs, which slowly start disintegrating him. Unfortunately, Barbara arrives and ruins everything by hitting him out of the trap with a shovel, saying to get away from her son. This allows Angor to destroy the lightbulbs. While Jim and Strickler struggle to get Barbara to Trollmarket, Draal holds Angor down. Jim carries his mother in his arms, expressing remorse for his actions and dishonesty. Unfortunately, Jim’s mother has a wound of Gumm-Gumm magic, thanks to her entwined fate with Strickler.

Telling Mom the Truth Jim hands Barbara to Vendel for help on how to undo the curse and begins waiting with the other Trollhunters. Eventually, Vendel informs them that Barbara cannot fully recover unless the binding spell is removed.

While Toby and Claire go to get the incantation for the reverse spell, Jim talks with Blinky about what he should do next. Blinky informs Jim that his time as a human has taught about the importance of a strong, human bond and that he needs to console his mother. Jim goes to his mother and apologizes for his actions. He explains that he only did it because he didn't want her to be worried or want to protect him, but now he's realized that she was worried either way. Jim tells Barbara that being a Trollhunter was probably his true destiny and that she doesn't need to worry about him as such.

Vendel comes to Jim and informs him that Strickler is refusing to do the reversal spell. Jim goes to confront Strickler, who pathetically begs for mercy and (almost) admits his true feelings for Barbara. He claims that he doesn't want to do undo the spell because it prevents Jim from hurting him and the others will probably throw him to the wolves as punishment. Jim agrees not to hurt Strickler, as long as soon as the spell is reversed, he leaves town for good, to which Strickler agrees.

Vendel then arrives and says that Barbara will be cured of her terrible curse, but she will also lose her memories of the Trollhunters in the process. Before the spell is undone, Barbara begs several times for Jim to remind her of his Trollunting life, so she doesn't have to worry about him again, and Jim agrees. When Claire and Toby arrive with the spell, Vendel reverses the curse and erases Barbara's memory of Trollmarket. When Barbara wakes up in the hospital back on Earth, she asks Jim why she's there. Jim is about to tell her about Trollmarket, but he quickly covers it up by saying that she fainted and bumped her head, breaking his promise again.

Jim goes to the dance to see his friends. Claire says that she wants to go inside with him, but Jim decides not to, and they go to the hill on the mountain to have a private dance of their own. Just when Jim and Claire are about to kiss, Claire realizes that Angor now has access to Trollmarket, since there was a key in Claire's pocketbook.

The Battle for Trollmarket When the kids inform Vendel of Claire's carelessness, the trolls arrive with Strickler, because he was the one who released Angor. Jim informs the trolls that Angor is on his way because he has a Horngazel, which makes the trolls even more angry with Jim. Just when the trolls are about to punish Jim and Strickler for their actions, Vendel assures the trolls that even though Jim made several mistakes, he still has helped them in their times of need and they need him most of all now that Angor is going to attack their home. When Claire, Toby, Bagdwella, Blinky, AAARRRGGHH!!!, Draal, and NotEnrique come to Jim's defense, the other trolls agree to fight Angor for their home.

While the trolls are preparing for the upcoming battle, Toby and Claire inform Jim that Chomsky has arrived with a message from Gunmar: Since Jim killed Gunmar's son, he is going to retaliate by killing Jim's loved ones. Strickler then arrives with Angor's eye to assist Jim. Strickler informs Jim that he can use the eye in his amulet, which gives him extra power in his armor and fighting.

Jim takes Strickler to the Gyre, where the two have a heart-to-heart conversation about Jim's destiny as the hero and Stickler's reformation. Before going their separate ways, Strickler gives Jim the last Triumbric Stone to defeat Gunmar, both as a sign of eternal friendship and proof that he has truly reformed. Jim also realizes that if he kills Gunmar, he will free all of the familiars and Strickler will be trapped in his monster form permanently.

Angor arrives in Trollmarket and starts attacking all the inhabitants with his Creeper Sun curse. Jim tries to fend off Angor, but he is no match. Just when Angor is about to attack Jim, AAARRRGGHH!!! intervenes and defends Jim, which also triggers the curse and turns both Angor and AAARRRGGHH!!! to stone. Furious, Toby smashes Angor to bits, defeating him. When the Trollhunters see the remains of their friend, Jim feels guilty and decides to go into the Darklands on his own. Despite the protests from his friends, Jim enters the Darklands to find Claire's brother, not taking into consideration of the consequences, leaving the rest of the Trollhunters to cover for him on Earth.

Trollhunters (Part Two) Skarlagk's Resistance As soon as Jim enters the Darklands, he finds himself in a whole new world. He searches for the nursery but does not have any luck doing so. He starts to worry about his friends and his mother back home and starts to think he should have brought some food and water with him for the trip. Jim then steps into a clearing and sees a sleeping Gumm-Gumm. While Jim tries to sneak past him, some a tiny rock hits the Gumm-Gumm on the head, waking him up. Jim quickly hides from the Gumm-Gumm and waits until he falls asleep. As soon as the Gumm-Gumm falls asleep, Jim gets out of his hiding place and decides to rest. When he feels some heat, he starts to think that the armor has given him a blanket, when it turns out to be a sentient fireball. The fireball introduces himself as, "Rob the Unending Fire" and the two instantly bond after a discussion of their favorite movie. Rob offers to guide Jim throughout his journey to the nursery.

Rob takes Jim to amaze, but Jim only ends up getting lost. Jim gets angry and starts blowing up at Rob for his incompetence. When Rob explains how lonely he is in the Darklands, Jim apologizes for his outburst and tells Rob on how he doesn't want anyone to help him get Enrique back or any emotions to cloud his thoughts. They continue their journey through the Darklands when suddenly, a Nyarlagroth arrives and starts circling them. Rob tries shooting fireballs at the Nyarlagroth, but it turns out that Nyarlagroth's are fireproof, so the two start running away. They reach a dead end and Rob mysteriously vanishes. Jim tries to summon his Glaives, but he is too frightened to do concentrate and blacks out.

Jim wakes up to find the Nyarlagroth knocked out cold. He finds out that the person who defeated it is a female Gumm-Gumm named "Skarlagk the Scorned, daughter of Orlagk" who offers to help him defeat Gunmar, making Jim faint again.

Jim eventually wakes up and finds himself riding on another Nyarlagroth with Skarlagk. She takes the boy to the resistance, filled with rebellious Gumm-Gumms and tamed Nyarlagroths. They arrive at the mess hall with the other Gumm-Gumms for some food, but of course, Jim doesn't take too kindly to Troll food. Jim follows Skarlagk to her chambers, where she begins to explain that Gunmar had killed her father when she was sixteen in human years and asks Jim to help the resistance to destroy Gunmar before he destroys the rebels and Jim's loved ones. Jim ponders this for a minute and agrees.

Hours later find a small room containing some strange stones that Skarlagk has apparently dug up. He finds an emerald-like crystal and inserts it in the place where his amulet used to be, and the armor starts to glow green but changes immediately back to red. Before Jim can ponder this conundrum, Rob barges into the room, ready to throw flames at Jim. The Trollhunter demands to know where Rob has been, to which the fireball replies that after they got separated in the maze, Rob retraced his steps, found the Nyarlagroth and followed the slime trails to the resistance.

Trapped in the Darklands Two weeks following his arrival in the Darklands, Jim makes a risky move to steal eggs from a Nyarlagroth's nest, managing to get away with one egg for sustenance. Returning to his abode, where he had drawn a makeshift map of the Darklands as well as his friends. Unfortunately, he barely was able to get some sleep as he detected goblins coming for him, forcing him to snuff the fire and scratch out his map, but the Gumm-Gumm had already become aware of his presence.

As he fled for his life, Jim accidentally tripped and stumbled right into the Changeling nursery. Checking the cradles for Enrique, Jim finds one infant, Eloise Stemhower, was born in 1894 and rhetorically asked what the goblins were feeding the familiars to keep them ageless. The next familiar he was Stricklander's familiar. He then finds Enrique and vows to come back for the other familiars. the nursery where he finds Enrique, sleeping in his cradle like a baby. Just when Jim can leave with the baby, some goblins catch him, but Jim manages to outsmart them. Unfortunately, the Gumm-Gumms catch Jim and start to chase after him. Before Jim can enter the portal back home, the Troll Tribunal starts to destroy the bridge. Enrique makes it back to Earth, but Jim becomes captured by the Gumm-Gumms. The trolls bring him before a six eyed troll who resembled Blinky, causing Jim to realize this was his brother Dictatious. Dictatious complimented that while his brother may have trained Jim well, evidently was not well enough and knocked him out.

Jim is taken by Dictatious, who brings him to Gunmar's throne. He begins to fight the soldiers, which intrigues Gunmar, who easily beats him in battle. Before the Skullcrusher could execute Jim, Dictatious stopped him, having realized his friends would come for. Gunmar orders the soldiers to take Jim to a prison cell, where he is thrown in next to Nomura (who got imprisoned for failing Gunmar). He decides to try to escape, but Nomura expresses her doubt and hopelessness, but Jim assures her that his friends will come for him, despite the bridge being gone. He also tells her that he will help her escape as well. Together, they share idle and witty conversation, which helps them bond.

Later, Dictatious and the Gumm-Gumms begin to gloat over taking Jim and Nomura to the Gunmar's throne room for the battle. When they leave, Claire, Toby, and Chompsky arrive to break Jim out of his prison. Before they can break him out of his cell, the Gumm-Gumms arrive and take Jim to Gunmar's throne room for the fight. Nomura and the reluctant Jim begin fighting, but Gunmar becomes very impatient and wants the Trollhunter to do away with Nomura. While he gains the upper hand, Nomura still expresses her doubts and starts to overpower Jim when his armor becomes useless. Before she can kill Jim, Gunmar stops her and tells her to let him finish off the Trollhunter himself. Before he can do that, Toby and Claire arrive. Upon seeing this, Gunmar realizes that the Killahead Bridge is open and sends his henchmen after them.

The four then arrive at the exit but find that it is locked. While Nomura uses a Stalkling to distract Gunmar and his minions, Claire uses the Shadow Staff to open the door. Using Nomura's "Darklands smarts" and combat abilities, they manage to dodge several obstacles. Unfortunately, they also run into Gunmar, who has become even more vengeful for Nomura's treachery. When the Gumm-Gumms seem to have overpowered Nomura, Draal arrives with the Gyre and manages to stop the Gumm-Gumms. The kids, Nomura, and the trolls hop in the Gyre and drive back to the bridge's portal. Luckily, they manage to escape right before the portal closes. They all congratulate themselves for their daring escape and head home together. After basking in the warmth of the sun, Jim and Claire share their first kiss.

Unbeknownst to them, Gunmar, Dictatious, and some goblins and Gumm-Gumms have escaped as well.

Back to Arcadia The very next day, Jim wakes up and is overly joyed to be back home on Earth, to the confusion of Toby and Claire (despite them knowing perfectly well about him being stuck in the Darklands). He even hugs Steve.

After school, they go back to Trollmarket and see Blinky burning his books after figuring out that his brother betrayed him. Just then, Usurna arrives to confront the Trollhunters that Jim will be dropped from the charges against Trollmarket if anything or anyone from the Darklands might have followed him back home. Vendel informs the Trollhunters that the Kruberas are staying because of his "questionable judgement" and that one of the trolls have found some goblin droppings behind the movie theater. Using his enhanced senses, AAARRRGGHH!!! realizes that some Blood Goblins have been here and they must have escaped from the Darklands. They realize that if some Blood Goblins might have gotten out, so would Gunmar. Jim says that the Blood Goblins find people, as opposed to the other way around.

They go over to Toby's house and find out that Chompsky has been kidnapped by the goblins. Jim feels useless and guilty for going into the Darklands by himself and wishes that everything could go back to the way things were before. Blinky assures Jim that in spite of what has happened, Jim is still a hero to them. AAARRRGGHH!!! then picks up Chompsky's scent and realizes that the gnome is alive. The Trollhunters then go to save him.

Barbecue Disaster Having mastered the Triumbric Stones, Blinky, AAARRRGGHH!!!, and Vendel show Jim different gemstones for his amulet, all of which have different powers and weapons. Of course, Jim was a bit distracted as he was having trouble coping with each of the gemstones' power.

Jim is later invited over for a barbecue over at Claire's house to impress her parents and make up for wrecking their house. Unfortunately, he forgot to remove the Aspectus Stone, which causes Jim to split up into different clones, each with a distinct personality that start to cause havoc at the party.

Jim rounds up all of the clones and although they end him up in hot water with Claire's parents, Claire still accepts him as her boyfriend, regardless.

A Gruesome Attacks One day in class, Coach Lawrence assigns the students to care for a flour sack as part of a parenting lesson. As fate would have it, Jim and Claire are paired up and are instantly proud parents to their sack.

After school, Jim and Claire meet up with Darci and Toby (who were also assigned together) at a malt shop to hang out. Toby promises Darci to take care of their "baby" while she is out at an event she is supposed to entertain.

As the Trollhunters walk home, Toby confesses that this is his favorite assignment since his parents were reported lost at sea when he was a baby. Just as they arrive home, a Gruesome attacks them and steals Toby's backpack with his rock collection. Blinky, Draal, and AAARRRGGHH!!! inform them that the Gruesome is probably on its way to the rock show at the museum. They give them a special rock, which will explode on impact when the Gruesome consumes it.

They arrive in the museum, only to find that Darci has arrived at the museum since the football game ended early. Toby tells Darci to take the sack home, but Darci decides to stay and watch the rock show. While Toby tries to keep Darci and the baby out of trouble, Jim and Claire search for the Gruesome. Jim accidentally runs into Steve (who is secretly on a mission with Eli to investigate the Trollhunters), and goes into the bathroom, not knowing that Steve has followed him

Jim fights the Gruesome in the bathroom, but he cannot stop him. Jim accidentally destroys his sack and the flour starts to weaken the Gruesome. When the entire museum evacuates the building after Eli accidentally triggers an alert, Jim calls Toby and informs that he needs to sacrifice his "baby" in order to save the day. Toby reluctantly takes his flour sack and sacrifices it to the Gruesome (not knowing that it was really Steve and Eli's sack). Just before Toby can inform Darci of their predicament, Claire shows up with their flour sack.

In the end, Toby and Darci are the only students who passed the assignment, as all the other sacks got destroyed in some way. As the bell rings, Toby and Darci walk home hand-in-hand with Jim and Claire in tow and high hopes for their futures.

Saturday Detention While trying to stop a troll from stealing Señor Uhl's truck, Jim, Claire, and Toby get caught and end up with Saturday detention. However, they see this as a good thing, since they do not have to worry about Trollhunting (though they do briefly discuss who could have possibly let Gunmar in Trollmarket). When Uhl eats Toby's burrito, he begins to get serious gas and heads to the bathroom.

After Uhl has been gone for some time, the kids decide to leave the classroom and have some fun around the school. After a while, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! arrive and inform Jim that Usurna is planning on putting him on trial for all the strange that things that have been occurring since escaping the Darklands. Blinky suggests making up a story, but Jim decides to accept full responsibility, since it was his choice to go into the Darklands on his own, in spite of Blinky's warnings.

Jim goes back into the hallway to catch up with the other kids, when all of a sudden, he hears a strange loud noise and decides to investigate. He, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! see that it is Draal, who has been taken over by the Gumm-Gumms.

On Trial for Releasing Gunmar Later that day, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! take Jim, Claire, and Toby over to Trollmarket, where Jim is being put on trial for allegedly releasing Gunmar into Trollmarket. Usurna tells Jim that they will let him go if he surrenders the Amulet and has it destroyed, but Jim refuses to do such a thing and is subsequently thrown into an iron bird cage until the trial.

Feeling useless, Jim wishes he never chose the Amulet in the first place and he couldn't be the Trollhunter anymore. Just then, the Amulet then summons the spirit of Unkar the Unfortunate to help him see what would happen if he never found the Amulet in the first place. He begins living a normal human life and enjoying himself, but he also remembers the Killahead Bridge and follows Strickler and Ms. Nomura to the museum, who are saying that the new Trollhunter is too stubborn and works alone. Realizing who the new Trollhunter might be, Jim goes inside Trollmarket to confront Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! on the matter, but as one would expect, they don't believe him and try to kill him. Jim then goes to Strickler's office and tries to explain everything that is going on. After a brief brawl, Strickler believes Jim, but they see that the invasion has already begun. Jim runs to the museum and sees that Draal has been chosen as the new Trollhunter, but has already been killed and the Amulet destroyed. Tearfully, Jim admits that he is the true Trollhunter, ready to face the world. Unkar tries to convince him not to fight, but Jim decides to take his chances. Merlin's spirit then appears and reveals that this was all a test to help Jim see what he was made for, so he sends him back to his own world.

Before the trial, Jim deduces that there might be a Gumm-Gumm spy lurking in the village, so he has Claire and Blinky investigate for some evidence while Toby and AAARRRGGHH!!! stall for time, but Toby only ends up getting rocks thrown at him. They use NotEnrique as a witness, who tries to put in a good word for Jim, but it also causes the council to be more suspicious. Jim confesses that everyone is mad at him for his mistakes, but he still wants to do the right thing, in spite of his predicament and that he would do anything to rectify his mistakes, then asks if they've ever made mistakes before. This still doesn't provide enough evidence that Jim is innocent. Just when Jim's friends arrive to inform the council of their new discovery, but Jim has already been found guilty and Usurna sentences him to death in some sort of pit known as The Deep to face death at the hands of his greatest fear.

In the Deep, Jim finds some sort of mysterious figure in the midst, which looks an awful lot like him with the red armor and a different form. Luckily, Jim manages to escape the Deep and finds out that Usurna has taken over Trollmarket. She claims that Jim is the one who killed Vendel (when it was really her) and they would be better off with her as a protector.

Jim arrives at Vendel's workshop within the Heartstone, where he reunites with his friends and informs them of Usurna's takeover. He looks at Vendel's remains and tearfully blames himself, but Blinky assures Jim that he had no control over the matter and Vendel truly believed him. Since they don't have any evidence and the other trolls have already been fooled, they go to the Janus Order to stop Gunmar. They immediately encounter Gunmar himself, but is revealed to be Otto, who is being possessed by Gunmar. This is when the gang realizes that Gunmar is in Trollmarket and they head back to stop him.

Evacuating Trollmarket The gang heads back to Trollmarket, where they interrogate Dictatious, who informs them that Gunmar has taken over Trollmarket and is planning to take the Hearthstone to regain his strength, so he can gain a brand new army after his last one got lost in the Darklands. Claire decides to use the Shadow Staff to conjure up a large portal, but Jim doesn't want her to risk her life for the trolls, but Claire says she is willing to take the chance after Jim saved her brother. Instead of the staff, Blinky decides to use the Gyre to help the trolls evacuate while Jim and AAARRRGGHH!!! hold off the Gumm-Gumms. Jim calls Steve to bring some umbrellas to shade the evacuating trolls.

Unfortunately, the Gumm-Gumms manage to track down the gang and try to break down the wall. Claire decides to take her chances by using the Shadow Staff to escape and conjure up a large portal. When Jim sees that the staff is killing her, he, Toby, Blinky, Enrique, and AAARRRGGHH!!! join in and help her conjure up the portal together. They manage to escape in the knick of time and the trolls celebrate their victory. Jim then hands Blinky Vendel's staff and appoints him as the new leader of Trollmarket. They vow to be prepared for Gunmar's army when they strike and find a place to hide the trolls until further notice.

Jim then goes home, only to find Strickler and Nomura, who are offering some assistance in his training.

Trollhunters (Part Three) Preparing to Fight Gunmar Since the trolls are stuck on Earth and the Gumm-Gumms are on the loose, the Trollhunters have been putting up signs to help deflect the Gumm-Gumms from attacking. They are not sure that they can defeat Gunmar or keep the other trolls in the clear forever, as they don't know what he is planning. AAARRRGGHH!!! decides to disguise himself as a Gumm-Gumm in order to get some intel on what Gunmar might be up to.

Jim goes back home to have some food, only to find that Barbara is painting pictures of Jim and his Trollhunting life, a sign that her memory is returning. Jim tells Claire about her memory possibly returning, but also expresses concern about the cold that Claire seems to have caught from the Shadow Staff and tells her to take the night off.

At school, Douxie, a visiting student flirts with Claire (much to Jim's Jealousy) and hands her a flyer for a Battle of the Bands competition being held at the end of the school year, to which Claire, Mary and Darci decide to compete in.

After school, Jim secretly trains with Strickler and Nomura, though he feels guilty about going behind Blinky's back. However, Jim isn't used to Strickler's more dark and somewhat insane methods of training. Strickler claims that Jim needs to be more assertive and dark to kill Gunmar.

Jim goes to Blinky, who is in quite a bad mood from trying to lead a whole race of trolls for survival. AAARRRGGHH!!! then arrives with some information about Gunmar's plan. Apparently, he plans to finish what he started centuries ago during the last Battle of Killahead Bridge: unleashing the Eternal Night, which is capable of permanently blocking out the sun and allowing the Gumm-Gumms to attack the human world without fear of the sun. AAARRRGGHH!!! says that Gunmar doesn't know how to bring the Eternal Night, but he is searching for a way, so they still have some time on their hands. Jim tells AAARRRGGHH!!! to keep getting more information.

Later on, outside the warehouse, Blinky finds Jim thinking to himself. He brewed him some coffee, but made of junk and notices that his young pupil is afraid. Jim admits that he is when it comes down to him facing Gunmar, yet can't shake off his past mistakes that led to Gunmar's freedom. Blinky confides that he is trying his best and learning from his mistakes, which help him grow both physically and mentally.

However, Jim notices that the signs protecting the warehouse were disappearing. Before he could make out who was stealing them, they are suddenly ambushed by a group of Gumm-Gumms, who have somehow located their whereabouts. Blinky and Jim quickly alert the trolls to evacuate the premises while Jim holds them off. He's then left to confront a brainwashed Draal, whom he reluctantly fights while Gunmar speaks through him. Jim, using Strickler's training, nearly kills Draal, yet comes back to his senses and spares him once again.

With the warehouse no longer safe, Jim helps Blinky hide the trolls around town. Everyone is accounted for, with the exception of Glug. Just then, the news appears and Councilwoman Nuñez announces that there have been a series of crimes sprees committed all over town.

Jim visits Claire in her room to tend to her, who tries to reassuring him that she's fine and can still help out, but only made Jim's concern grow. He then receives a call from Toby, who is escaping the clutches of a dubious police officer, Detective Scott, who so happens to be Darci's father. Toby stole Scott's cop car and hides out in Claire's room as he explains the situation. Jim and his friends scout the sewers to find Glug while they split up, with Jim going with Claire. Claire continues feeling nauseated from her cold, but continues to wave aside Jim's suggestion of going home to get some rest. A rat then lands on her head, startling her into puking.

Jim then finds Toby being kidnapped by a trio of burglars. He takes one of their stole Vespas and rides after them. He manages to knock out one and dons his armor as he takes out the second. When Toby frees himself, he is suddenly head-locked by the female thief, which makes Jim back off. Luckily, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! arrive to scare off the thieves, who willingly hand themselves into custody.

The next day, Jim watches Toby being awarded for his bravery for catching the perps. Jim talks to Claire about how they took down a few human baddies and how refreshing it was. Maybe when he was done dealing with Gunmar, he might look forward to a life of vigilantism. Jim and Claire are still disgusted as Toby and Darci continue to kiss each other in public.

Coffee Spike Strickler and Nomura teach Jim about Gravesand. It's derived from the pulverized bones of fallen Gumm-Gumms and aids Changelings in shedding their human forms. In humans, it hones feral instincts. Some of the changes are permanent. Stricker blow some in Jim's face. Jim feels angrier, his eyes glowing and Strickler tells him to use that anger. Trying to fight with Stickler and Nomura. Blinky comes in to find Jim with Nomura pinned to a wall. Blinky quickly figures out (Gravesand). What is not for humans what has happened. Blinky tries to bring out the humanity in Jim. Jim apologizes, saying he lost himself.

Blinky tells them that Gunmar has left Trollmarket. He's chasing the Eternal Night. They must prepare and remain vigilant. Next morning Jim makes himself and his mother lunch. He finds her painting in the basement again. Around the room are many paintings of trolls. Her most recent painting is of Strickler in his troll form. She only remembers that he disappeared suddenly with no explanation. Jim took the Gravesand to school.

At school Toby is worried about Claire being sick. Jim and Toby overhear part of the conversation (Steve and Coach Lawrence) lines , so Steve shoves them to the side, sending the can of gravesand out of Jim's bag, where it's kicked into the teachers' lounge. Jim peeks inside and sees it on the counter. He sneaks in and overhears the teachers complaining about the students. Toby appears in the doorway dancing, distracting them while Jim grabs the can. After he and Toby leave, Lawrence finds an identical can on the floor and wonders why the coffee is down there. He makes coffee using the gravesand.

Later Jim goes to his locker and finds that the can he grabbed was coffee, not the gravesand. Steve confronted Jim and knows he's involved. Jim tries to explain, but stops when they hear Lawrence nearby. Steve tells Jim to undo whatever he did. Jim calls Strickler and asks him about someone eating gravesand and learns it amplifies the effects tenfold. Jim lies and says it was Toby's cat. Lawrence hears Toby pretending to be the cat and starts looking for him. Strickler recommends putting the cat down as it's most merciful. The other option is to break through his delusions and connect emotionally with him before the state becomes permanent. Lawrence finds them and they run away.

Jim, Toby, Steve and Eli are escaped From Lawrence. Mary and Darci then tell the Señor Uhl made them wash and wax his entire truck and Miss Janeth flipped a desk and started eating their papers. Jim decides to call Claire so they can portal the teachers to a safe place. Claire doesn't answer.

Toby comes over the intercom and announces there's free tacos outside as long as they last. Everyone races out to get some except the infected teachers. Strickler enters the school and sees what's happened. Uhl and Ms. Janeth attack him and knocks him out. The students realize there are no tacos, but get locked out of the school when Toby closes the gate.

They hear Strickler over the intercom and realize he got a dose, too. Jim sends Steve to handle Lawrence, Eli to Miss Janeth, and Toby to Karl Uhl.

At outside school, Jim finds Strickler on the roof, ranting angrily about Jim's weakness. Strickler tells Jim to kill him or be killed. Strickler turns into his troll form and attacks Jim.

Jim asks Strickler why he came back to train Jim if he didn't believe in him. Strickler says he came back to protect Jim’s mum. Jim gets Strickler cornered, but won't kill him. Jim uses his desire to protect Barbara to connect with him. That breaks the spell. Strickler agrees to talk to the other teachers, who are very confused. Strickler says there's hope for Jim yet. Jim tells Toby about Claire’s rest and slept well.

Claire's Possession The very next day, Claire wakes up feeling one hundred percent better. While she is getting ready for the day, Enrique informs her of her sleepwalking, but Claire brushes it off and doesn't listen. She arrives at school, where she meets up with Jim and Toby. She was about to confess that she was probably the ones who stole the signs protecting the trolls' warehouse, until Darci arrives, who proposes that the four of them should go on a double date together to celebrate.

Jim talks with Toby about how to act on their date. Toby says that should start up a romantic conversation with their respective significant others, watch a scary movie, and never let them go to the bathroom together (apparently, girls conspire when they go to the bathroom, as Toby states). Toby hopes that they can end the night with a smooch after walking them home.

That night, Jim tries to seat Claire, but only ends up making her fall down instead. While Jim tries to talk to Claire, Toby keeps kicking Jim and ruining them. Just then, Douxie arrives as their waiter (much to Jim's dismay) and proceeds to flirt with both Darci and Claire. When Claire begins to feel dizzy, she goes to the bathroom to clear her head. In the bathroom, Claire finds out that she has been taken over by Morgana, and she plots on using Claire to get the staff back and destroy Jim. Morgana emerges from the mirror in her flame form and starts to strengthen her control over the girl. Morgana flies into Claire's body and takes full control of her body and mind, trapping the real Claire in the Shadow Realm.

When Jim and Claire go back to the Nunez residence, Claire starts to go crazy and try to attack Jim. Luckily, Enrique stops her and informs the Trollhunter of Morgana's control.

Later that night, Jim, Toby, Blinky, and Strickler chain Morgana to a chair and try to think of a way to get Claire out of the nightmare realm. Strickler tells the boys that if they recite an incantation in reverse, they'll escape. Jim and Toby enter the Shadow Realm, where they find Claire's spirit frantically trying to finish homework and tend to Enrique. Jim and Toby try to communicate with her, but she cannot hear or see them. However, she does notice what they do to her stuff. The boys come up with the idea of writing down their presence on a piece of paper to warn her. They continue to do some things in her room until she finally sees them. Claire asks the boys what is going on and Toby explains everything, which Claire furious at Morgana. Holding onto Claire's stuffed bunny, they fly back to the portal, but the portal closes when Morgana throws the staff into it. The kids fly up to get it, but Morgana is getting too strong. Using all her strength, Claire manages to overpower Morgana and steal the staff back. Claire regains control of her body and even manages to pick up a few of Morgana's abilities.

His Mom's Memories Return When Barbara's memory comes back, she invites Jim, Claire's folks and Toby's Nana over for a little confrontation with the kids. Barbara explains to the adults about the secret kingdom of trolls and the kids' solemn duties to protect them and fight evil, but naturally, they don't believe her and assume she is on drugs. Not wanting to be in more trouble than they already are, the kids try to pretend that Barbara's crazy and doesn't know what she is talking about. Barbara shows them the weapons, but they assume that Jim stole them from the museum, since he and Toby got arrested from there. Quickly thinking, Claire claims these weapons are for LARPing, which Toby goes along with.

Just then, Blinky arrives and takes Jim downstairs to the basement to warn them of AAARRRGGHH!!!'s predicament. Barbara gets fed up and confronts Jim on what he has done, in which Jim once again, admits the truth. Barbara explains to Jim how it's the parents' job to know when or if their kids are in danger, regardless of what happens. She also points out what he's going to tell Claire and Toby's folks if they die for real. Realizing that he was wrong, Jim apologizes and agrees to tell the truth. Jim then reintroduces Barbara to Blinky (and Dictatious).

The Lakes go back upstairs in the middle of an argument. Knowing they cannot keep lying forever, Jim, Claire, and Toby reveal their Trollhunter identities. When the goblins arrive to attack the reformed Dictatious, the Trollhunters manage to defeat the goblins with help from their parents. After getting trapped in the Shadow Realm for a short amount of time, Claire manages to find a way to Merlin's tomb. They decide to go in hopes that they can get his help to defeat Morgana, but Claire also adds that, in order to find Merlin's tomb, Jim would have to destroy his amulet.

Quest to Merlin's Tomb While debating on the amulet, Claire describes her vision to her friends: that she saw Merlin creating the Amulet of Daylight and then placed a jewell inside, which held a map to his tomb within. When Jim wonders if it was really Merlin alone making the amulet, Blinky voices distain of destroying the sacred amulet. Claire insists that destroying the amulet will find Merlin's tomb and the Staff of Avalon, before Dictatious assists her by claiming that the amulet and the staff are both connected through Merlin's magic. Jim later decides that he probably doesn't have to destroy his amulet, since Gunmar has AAARRRGGHH!!! captive and could be used as an emotional anchor.

After packing up their things, the kids say goodbye to their parents and promise to contact them to let them know if they're okay. They go to Trollmarket and find out that AAARRRGGHH!!! has been trapped inside of a stasis trap with Dwarfstones. Jim then decides to have Toby drop his hammer in order to drop into the room below, although Blinky theorizes that the explosion will probably get them killed, but Toby is willing to take the risk. Toby smashes the hammer and they fall into the room below. They find an ancient gyre and realize that the blue stone inside of the amulet is the key to powering the gyre. Knowing the risk of destroying the amulet, Jim smashes it to smithereens and places the stone in it's proper place, which unlocks the map to Merlin's tomb.

The gyre takes them to the tomb, which is hidden behind a waterfall that is impervious to magic. They then realize that Gunmar and Draal are here and with Draal being free from his brainwashing, they can rescue him. They go inside and find Merlin's old workshop. Toby then presses on a stone, which lights up the enitre workshop and makes it look brand new. Jim theorizes that maybe the button somehow makes things look like the past. Claire finds a bag of seeds and decides to use the seed to grow a tree that will reach to the next part of the tomb.

As soon as the gang climbs up, they find a timeline depicting Merlin and the Staff of Avalon, his history with Morgana, and how he formed the Trollhunters. They also see that it also continues into the present, which begins a battle with Angor Rot. They escape from Angor and into a cavern filled with giant crystals. Jim carries Draal's mechanical arm and finds Draal trapped between some crystals. Draal feels guilty about being hypnotized and believes that he had let everyone down. Jim assures him that this wasn't his fault and he is better than he thinks.

Just then, Angor arrives into the cavern and begins chasing after both Jim and Draal. Despite trying to put up a good fight, Gunmar then manages to strike Draal with his staff and turn him to stone, throwing him to the ground (in the same manner that his father was killed), much to everyone's horror. As soon as the cave starts collapsing, Gunmar then leaves Angor behind (who is dangling from one of the crystals).

The gang then goes over to Merlin's tomb, where they find the ancient wizard sleeping and covered in spider webs. Jim uses the amulet to wake Merlin up, which then succeeds. Merlin stretches his joints and asks them where his staff might be. Jim explains that Gunmar took it and it fills Merlin with doubt. Merlin explains Jim that he foresaw their arrival because he can see the future and he went into comatose because of the Battle of Killahead Bridge. Merlin then shows them shadows of the Killahead Bridge battle. He takes them to where he fought Morgana and explains to them that she is the one who conjured up the Eternal Night and the only way to stop her was for Merlin to forsake all of his magic as possible. Thanks to Gunmar, she is probably going to escape from her prison and take vengencea. When they get back, they find out that the cave is going to flood them and the only way is to use the amulet. Merlin manages to repair the amulet and they escape the cave with their lives.

Meeting Aja & Krel Merlin sends the Trollhunters to retrieve strange ingredients for something he is working on. Jim, Claire, and Toby are sent to retrieve lighting in a bottle, while Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! are sent to find the rest of Merlin's ingredients elsewhere.

The first item on Merlin's list is Antramonstrum Shell, which is located in Strickler's old office. As soon as they get it, Señor Uhl wants Jim to show them around the town if he wants to make up for his many absent days. Jim takes Aja and Krel to Claire and Toby, who reluctantly agree to include them in their Trollhunting mission for Merlin.

They take them to the wrecked Janus Order, which they pass off as a "teen hangout." While they search for Changeling remains, Krel goes into the control room and starts to use the system to play music and show off his dancing skills. When Jim turns the music off, some footage of AAARRRGGHH!!! and Jim fighting Gunmar starts playing on the monitors, which he instantly turns off. The Trollhunters claim it to be a movie and decide to take the siblings to see Claire's house, while Krel takes something he brought out of the control panel.

Jim and Toby go to the roof to collect some lightning in a jar, so Aja and Krel decide to use their vast intergalactic knowledge to help them do it. Krel makes a capacitor from some parts of the microwave to hold the lightning in, and Aja hacks into Arcadia's power grid to make lightning appear in fifteen minutes. Using Jim's sword, they manage to capture the lightning and put it in the jar. The siblings then bid their friends goodbye and go home.

The Trollhunters go back to Jim's house, where they see that Merlin has finished working on his new project: armor for Toby and Claire. Blinky asks Merlin what is going on, to which Merlin replies that it's time to go to war once he releases Morgana and wants to kill her before she has a chance to cause the Eternal Night.

Jim's "True" Destiny Merlin explains that Jim has the choice to stop Gunmar and Morgana. While Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! go to recruit as many allies as they can, Jim is left to decide whether or not to start the war. Just then, Nomura arrives and informs the Trollhunters that Gunmar has Strickler and Barbara. While the others go to search for Barbara, Merlin blocks Jim from exiting, believing that he will have to sit this one out. This leads to a brief but tense brawl between the two. Merlin tells Jim that in spite of his training and experience, his humanity alone is not enough to stop the war and takes his amulet off of his armor, which knocks him unconscious.

Merlin ties Jim up and informs him that the ingredients he sent Jim to retrieve are actually part of a potion that will turn him into a troll (or, more specifically, part-troll). He explains that he must mix the elixir with water, bathe in it, and he will emerge as a new creature. Merlin sympathetically tells Jim that while he was sleeping, he realized in his dreams that he needed a champion who can defend both worlds from evil and the amulet chose him to become the first human Trollhunter, but that didn't mean he will remain a human forever and he must become part troll in order to get stronger. Merlin also explains that the transformation will be permanent and if he really does value the people in his life, he must change his physical form for the better of the worlds. As he understands that this is the greatest call Jim has ever been asked of, he respects that it is still Jim's choice whether to remain human while risking the fate of the world or become half-troll to even the odds.

Jim goes upstairs and pours the elixir into the tub while wearing his armor. He looks down at the potion and reflects on what he has been through since becoming a Trollhunter. The others bang on the bathroom door, begging him not to do this, but Jim has made up his mind and goes into the elixir, starting his transformation.

About a couple nights later, Jim manages to find his way back home, disoriented. After he collapses inside his house, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! also arrive, but they find a humanoid troll who looks remarkable like Jim laying unconscious on the living room couch. Jim begins embracing his new enhanced abilities, but then finds out the disadvantages of being a troll: he can't eat human food, he can't live in the human world, and he can't go out in the sun without getting burned. Barbara tries to comfort him, but he only ends up eating some silverware and kitchen appliances. Angered, he brushes off his mother and rushes into his bedroom to think to himself. He tries to take off his armor, but due to the emotional turmoil he's currently undergoing, the amulet refuses to come off. When he stumbles upon his yearbook, he looks upon his former human face in his picture. Saddened that he can no longer hang out with his friends at school anymore nor even graduate and start a normal life of his own, he gives himself into his feral instincts and ultimately runs away.

Jim sneaks into his school and begins to reminisce on his humanhood and realizes he cannot go back to the good old days. He carves his name onto his old desk and becomes even more feral. Claire and Toby try to talk to him, but Jim only ends up running away from them, declaring that the Jim they knew is gone. When they catch up to him again, Jim calms down a little, yet he still rants about how he can't do any more human stuff and he can't be the same person anymore, but his loved ones assure him that in spite of what has happened, they still love him no matter what and he's still the same Jim they know, on the inside. Merlin arrives, but reminds everyone that Gunmar is still on the loose.

The Eternal Night War The Trollhunters try to make a plan of attack, but Blinky and Merlin argue about how to do it. Jim has to stay in the house until the Eternal Night begins, since sunlight will burn him to a crisp, so the others have to clear Arcadia Square first. After drawing out a battle plan, Jim finds Merlin in his kitchen with NotEnrique. He asks the wizard if the earthquakes would destroy the Darklands, which Merlin confirms and notes that the Trollhunter is concerned about the fates of the Changeling Familiars still trapped inside. Being one step ahead, he creates a magical Cradlestone which will help NotEnrique safely transport the babies out of the Darklands.

Later on, Jim hugs his mother, who wishes him luck in his greatest battle yet, but also asks him to come back in one piece. Barbara tells him that she'll be at the hospital, knowing that it'll be a busy night. She then walks out of the house (while wiping a tear) and looks back at Jim, who nods at her reassuringly that he'll be okay. He then tries to reach for her, only to burn his hand in the sunlight. Strickler comforts him and reminds him that everyone will be okay.

Soon enough, the Eternal Night begins and Jim emerges from his house to begin his fight against Gunmar and Angor, using his new enhanced abilities. When Angor is about to kill him, Jim reminds the former Trollhunter of what a great and respected hero he once was and how turning evil has ruined him. When Angor starts to take this under consideration, Gunmar grabs Jim and starts overpowering him in battle. Gunmar begins to use his powers to expose Jim to sunlight, but his armor starts to glow and it enhances his strength, causing him to strike Gunmar and blow him up, freeing the world from his tyranny. The Trollhunters cheer for Jim, but AAARRRGGHHH!!! arrives to warn everyone about Morgana's escape.

Jim tries to stop Morgana, but she overpowers him even more than Gunmar did, causing him to become weak. Morgana traps Jim in a bind and is about kill him, when Angor arrives at the last minute to save Jim and help him stop Morgana, but she is still too powerful for him. When Morgana is about to blast Jim's allies, he saves them, knocking him out cold. Using the Shadow Staff, Claire helps Angor fight off Morgana and traps her in the Shadow Realm, defeating her. The others then go to Jim's body, believing him to be dead. Claire tearfully recites her lines from the school play to him, only to reveal that Jim is alive and well. Merlin then arrives and ends the Eternal Night.

Leaving Arcadia With Morgana defeated and the Eternal Night over, Trollmarket has been destroyed. Merlin informs everyone that he senses another Heartstone somewhere in New Jersey. Jim and Claire decide to go with Merlin and the trolls, while Toby and AAARRRGGHH!!! decide to stay in Arcadia as the new protectors. Jim bids a tearful goodbye to his mother and promises to contact her whenever he can and vows to return one day. Jim, Claire, Merlin and the trolls head off on their journey for a new home.

3Below (Part One) Gym Class Since Part One of 3Below takes place during Part Three of Trollhunters, Jim makes a brief cameo appearance in "Terra Incognita Part Two", where he's seen exercising and chatting with Toby during gym class.

Meeting the Akiridions One day, a trickster troll named Porgon goes on the loose and the Trollhunters start to track him down. Unfortunately, as Porgon threw a series of supercharged trees at the pursuing Trollhunters, causing a chain reaction that caused them to stumble. Just as they catch up with Porgon, the trickster gets his hands on a strange metal cylinder that causes him to vanish. Blinky assumes that it's because he has somehow found a way to control time and space.

The next day, Jim tells Toby that he saw Porgon at the planetarium, where the school science fair was being hosted. Jim bumps into Aja and remarks that he had never done that before. Just then, Porgon arrives and starts attacking the fair. Before Jim can activate his armor, Aja uses her serrator shield to block Porgon's attacks. Confused at what just happened, Jim asked Aja what her device was. Unfortunately, as Claire teleports Toby up above to smash Porgon, the trickster uses his magic on the cylinder, causing the day to reset to its beginning.

Returning to the science fair, Jim ambushes Aja and introduces himself, saying she can help him. As Aja boasted of being trained as a warrior, suddenly Porgon attacks again. As Aja realized that the day was repeating, Jim remarked that she remembered as his friends interrupt. As Porgon holds up the cylinder, Aja identifies it as Akiridion technology. Claire and Toby try to attack Porgon again but he starts the loop again before they could succeed.

Returning to the science fair again, Jim attempts to approach Aja and flinches when she nearly stabs him with her serrator blade. When she asked why the day kept repeating, Jim then informs Aja about how Porgon is keeping them all in a time loop and it's only because of her serrator shield and his amulet that their memories were protected. As the loop was about to begin again, he asks what Akiridion tech is. Aja explains that the technology comes from her homeworld of Akiridion-5 and reveals her true form to Jim.

As the loop begins again, Jim finds himself waking up in his own bed to find Aja in her true form by his bedside. Aja wants to stop Porgon right away, but Jim stops her and calls the other Trollhunters for assistance.

Both teams meet in the woods, where both of their mentors begin to have a bit of a tiff. They soon hear Porgon attacking the fair again with only the Creepslayerz to defend it, Jim tells Aja to pull up her serrator shield to shield both team's members as the loop restarts. They go back through the time loop and have a meeting at Aja and Krel's house to discuss how they are going to plan their attack on Porgon. The teams conclude that combining the Dekyon Charger and his Troll magic, he is able to control time and space itself, but if he combines it with the Subspace Manifold as well, time could be destroyed. Jim tries to formulate a plan, but being impatient, Aja goes off on her own. Naturally, she fails again and is sent back through the time loop.

When she goes back to the house, Jim tells her she needs to learn patience, which is what Varvatos Vex was trying to teach her. Jim recounts how he foolishly journeyed into the Darklands alone and it was only through the aid of his friends that he made it out. Aja snaps about how determined she is to become a warrior and to defeat the bounty hunters who are out to kill her. Krel and Varvatos explains to Aja that all the training in the world cannot prevent accidents or mistakes, that there will be consequences no matter what. Furthermore, as Varvatos squeezes Jim's neck, he agrees with the Trollhunter that she could not hope to defeat Porgon by herself. Aja ponders this and reluctantly agrees.

The gang decides to put magic stones on the students' volcanoes to distract Porgon while stealing the charger. When they cause the volcanoes to spew out real lava, they manage to defeat Porgon and retrieve the charger. Unfortunately, that also means that they have been exposed to the public. Krel decides to destroy the charger, resetting the loop to ensure that Porgon would not find it and keep their anonymity but that also means the events and their memories will be erased. Blinky assures them that fate would find a way to reunite them all in due course. Both teams then places their hands on the charger as restart the loop one last time.

In the final loop, just as Porgon stumbles across the charger, it self-destructs, allowing the Trollhunters to catch up and slay him.

With no memory of Aja or Krel, Jim accidentally bumps into Aja again during the science fair and apologizes. When he asks her if she's alright, she says that everything is "awesome sauce," a phrase only Toby says, and he and Toby continue enjoying the planetarium.

Whereabouts During the Bonfire Darci mentions to Mary that Jim, Claire, and Toby were on a trip to visit his "Uncle Marlin" and makes another brief cameo appearance in Merlin's Tomb, redirecting the water with his sword's magic.

The Eternal Night Jim is briefly seen in his troll form, slicing a flying truck in half with his sword. As soon as he lands, he glances towards Aja and Krel, who recognize him and are confused by why he looked more "blue", until they realized the "Trollhunters" thing after their last encounter with him.

3Below (Part Two) Ambush in New Jersey Jim is mentioned several times by Toby as he expresses how much he misses fighting alongside his best friend.

In "Race to Trollmarket", Jim and Blinky had made it to the sewers of Hoboken, New Jersey when they receive a call from Toby. Blinky tells him that it's a bad time, as the two of them are in confrontation with the leader of the Arcane Order. Toby reintroduces Jim to Aja and Krel (currently in their Akiridion forms) and Jim asks how they're doing, but Blinky suggests they table the introductions so they may focus on the fight. While Jim's attacks against the mysterious wizard are easily repelled, Toby asks Blinky if he knows where Kanjigar stored Gaylen's Core and the royals add that Vendel was also present at the exchange. Blinky recommends they consult the Soothscryer, shortly before the call cuts.

Wizards Into the Past When Douxie, Archie, Merlin, Toby, Steve, AAARRRGGHH!!! arrive at Camelot, Toby wonders where Jim was. He is then shocked to find his best friend in stasis within a green crystal, courtesy of Merlin. He explains that they were all ambushed by the Green Knight, who struck Jim in the chest with an onyx shard, which began to creep into his heart to corrupt his soul. In order to stop the process, Merlin had no choice but to place Jim in stasis. When the Arcane Order and the Green Knight attack Camelot, Jim's stasis crystal falls into the time rift, followed by Claire, Douxie, and Steve.

Jim's crystal cracks open, setting him free, but he is still critically injured from the shard. The knights of Camelot are immediately alarmed by Jim's presence and arrest him and his friends. While being escorted to the castle, Jim wonders what was going on while he was asleep. Douxie explains that they're lost in time and are currently stuck in the Dark Ages in the mid-12th century, before the Battle of Killahead Bridge. Jim notices that, even though he's still injured, the shard's dark magic felt different. Douxie then realizes that, when they traveled back in time, the shard's corruption was placed in a temporal pause, sparing the Trollhunter's soul from its dark magic. Jim recognizes Douxie as the one who works at the cafe in Arcadia, which he works in part time, and thanks how Jim always tips him. Claire introduces Jim to Douxie as Merlin's apprentice.

When they arrive at the throne room, King Arthur is shocked and disgusted to have Jim in his presence, as trolls are forbidden to walk the villages of Camelot, due their potential threats of being Gunmar's spies. Morgana then enters court and calls him out on him going back on his word to allow trolls to roam free as they are born of magic, just as humans (and wizards) are born of blood. Arthur only calls Jim a beast, much to his dismay, and proceeds to have him executed by placing him in the sunlight. He desperately tries to tell the knights that he's not a troll, but they don't listen. Not wanting to bare to her boyfriend suffer any more pain, she unintentionally summons her shadow magic to save Jim. Claire and Morgana plead Arthur to show Jim mercy and not give into his fear, which he begrudgingly agrees. He allows Jim to live... in the dungeons. Claire tries to stop them, but Douxie explains that he's still alive and they'll find a way to save him later.

Meeting Callista Galahad throws Jim into a cell to rot along with the other monsters, though Jim is a little okay with it since it's not the Darklands. A female troll asks Jim what his crime was: which he miserably replies that it was because of him being a troll where he wasn't supposed to. The troll explains that Arthur has a dark sense of humor: takes her homelands and blames her from "trespassing", stating that anything that's not a fleshbag is forbidden in his borders. Jim admits that he's actually half-human, much to the troll's scoff. But then he realizes that Arthur is at war with more than just Gunmar and the Gumm-Gumms: he's locked up and executed good trolls, goblins, gnomes, and any other magical creature he doesn't understand. The troll introduces herself as Callista, and likewise with Jim.

Arthur then had enough of the troll's threat and plans on executing them all, leaving Douxie, Steve, and Claire to agree on saving Jim and worrying about meddling with history later. Jim tries to summon his sword, but is unable to due to the shard blocking his amulet's power. Luckily, Douxie, Claire, and a younger Archie arrive to break Jim and the other out of the dungeon, just before Arthur arrives. The trolls all panic and escape the castle as they made their way to the gates. Douxie buys Claire time to escort Jim to the gates, but the sun begins to rise. Claire uses her shadow magic to block the sunlight and allow Jim and the other creatures to escape into the woods.

Running from the Hunt While trying to outrun the knights on the hunt for trolls, Jim, Callista, and the other trolls run into the Wild Woods and make it to their border: the Killahead Bridge. However, the knights have caught up to them. Jim and Callista end up separated from the rest of the creatures, but Jim's injury continues to worsen. Callista takes the weakened half-troll to a safe place for them to hide, but quickly warned him about the traps. When Callista says how the knights could be foolish to follow them, Jim says that she doesn't know Steve Palchuk and his dimwitted ego.

Callista takes Jim into her former home, Tombro, now just a ruins and a graveyard for the trolls turned to stone. She explains that the king is always trying to expand his borders, so his knights sacked her village when she was just a youngling and then arrested her for "trespassing" her own home. They gave her a human name "Callista" and she never knew her birth name as she pulled out her stone doll from the rubble. Jim explains that not all humans have to be as bad and prejudice as Arthur and his knights; in his present, humans and trolls actually get along. He shows her his pictures of himself with his friends, and Callista laughs at the boy with the baby hands (who happens to be Jim in his human form)... until they are ambushed by Lancelot, who shoots an arrow at Callista's leg.

The duo flee yet again, but are separated when Jim trips and the shard nearly creeps into his chest more, making him briefly feral and his eyes glow red. Jim tries to fight off the injury and search for Callista, until he is suddenly ambushed by a woman, whom he recognized as the very same witch who tried to kill him, his friends, and endanger all of humanity with her Eternal Night: Morgana. At first, he thought she was gonna kill him... but to his surprise, she helps him up, promising him that she wouldn't hurt him and apologizes to him for Arthur putting him in a cage. Claire runs in and hugs Jim, happy to see him alive while Morgana watches in acceptance of the human and troll's love for each other.

However, when the knights arrive, Morgana tells Jim to flee while she draws them away. Jim promises Claire he'll find her again and gives her a kiss before he runs away... only to be punched to the ground by King Arthur. The king proceeds to accuse Morgana of treachery and is about to slay Jim... until his sister intervenes to distract him, allowing Jim to flee once again. He finds a knight about to kill Callista and quickly knocks him out to save her, not wanting to leave a friend behind.

Arriving in Dwoza After outrunning the knights of Camelot, an injured Callista and Jim arrive outside of Dwoza, where he runs into a younger Blinky, who takes them in to treat their wounds.

Jim is surprised to find Blinky healing him as he says he had the craziest dream of being stuck in the past, Steve had great hair and a goatee, everything smelled bad, and Gunmar was still alive. The younger Blinky corrects him that his name is "Blinkous" and Gunmar is still alive. Assuming the youngling's delusional, Blinkous slaps Jim in the face, snapping him back to reality. He finds Callista alive as well (and had punched Dictatious in three of his eyes since she startles easy). The Galadrigals then ask if the duo is all healed before immediately escorting them to the exit, claiming that outsiders have tend to cause a lot of trouble.

Jim tries to convince Blinky and Dictatious that they're on the same side and tries to show them a picture of the future, but his phone loses power. Callista suddenly notices the trolls are gathering supplies for the end times, as they are planning to hide until the brewing conflict comes to an end. Jim is shocked to learn that the trolls aren't going to fight and tries to explain that they must participate in the war. When Blinky questions Jim's words, he quickly explains that he's a master strategist, but he denies the fact and corrects that reading books is Dictatious' speciality. When Jim warns them that Gunmar is going to attack Killahead and they have to help the humans fight, Blinky doesn't listen and continues escorting Jim and Callista out of Dwoza. Jim lectures that the good trolls can't keep hiding forever and sooner or later, they must pick a side, much to the brothers' denial.

However, a Gumm-Gumm AAARRRGGHH!!! suddenly arrives to attack Dwoza and announces to the trolls that it's time to either fight with Gunmar to murder the humans or they'll all die if they refuse allegiance. While the residence of Dwoza seek refuge, Jim explains to Callista that he goes way back with the victious Gumm-Gumms. He tries to talk to AAARRRGGHH!!! in a friendly approach, but when he sniffs him, he claims that he looks like a troll, yet he smells like a human, believing him to be an "impure" and punches him. Callista aids Jim when AAARRRGGHH!!! begins to go rampant as he demands the trolls to fight for Gunmar, but Jim defiantly yells that they'll never join the Gumm-Gumm's cause, even Callista hates the taste of people. Jim quickly evades AAARRRGGHH!!!'s attacks and tries to encourage the trolls of Dwoza to stand up and fight for what's right, but they refuse and leave the duo to handle the situation.

As Jim continues to use his agility to evade AAARRRGGHH!!!'s blows, the Gumm-Gumm demands him to fight back. Jim mocks him and says he's a "pacifist", until AAARRRGGHH!!! manages to throw his future friend into the air. Callista catches him and notices a large barrel of water hanging above, which gives her an idea and tells Jim to continue stalling the Gumm-Gumm. When Blinky and Dictatious begin to reflect their evasiveness and were just about to give the troll the spirit to fight back, AAARRRGGHH!!! knocks Jim unconscious. Luckily, Callista shoves the large barrel of water to pin the Gumm-Gumm down, now defenseless.

When the trolls are about to kill AAARRRGGHH!!!, Jim quickly intervenes and convinces the trolls to not kill him, as there are other ways to solve a conflict. When Blinky misses the point and decides to torture him, Callista steps in and corrects what Jim was actually trying to say: the trolls shouldn't have to be like the Gumm-Gumms, that they can be better.

When Blinky asks Jim what they should do with AAARRRGGHH!!!, a younger Vendel approaches and leaves the Gumm-Gumm in Blinky's care, to his dismay.

The First Trollhunter After imprisoning AAARRRGGHH!!! in the stronghold, Vendel sets Jim up for an operation to remove the onyx shard from his heart to spare him from its dark magic and regain his strength. Jim is utterly reluctant to proceed, but Callista holds him down and places a chicken bone in his mouth to bite on. However, Claire, Douxie, Merlin, and King Arthur appear from a shadow portal to ask for the troll's help against Gunmar.

While Vendel and Arthur try to form a mutual agreement, Jim asks Douxie if it'll work, which has to since if it doesn't they can't go back home to their present. Merlin assures them that all will be well and finally meets his future champion. Merlin then takes Jim to talk with him in private, informing him that he cannot remove the shard as its dark magics is too powerful, and there's no cure to remove it. So, once Jim returns to the present with his friends, the onyx shard will proceed to his heart and corrupt him. Jim is clearly saddened to hear that he cannot be saved and that he'll lose the rest of his humanity, but appreciates Merlin's efforts either way. Claire comes in and wonders what they were talking about. Jim hides the truth and explains that Merlin is finished with the Heart of Avalon. Douxie encourages Jim and Claire to take a beat while he helps Merlin finish the Amulet of Daylight and Steve trains the trolls in combat.

Claire teleports Jim across the planet to what would be Jim's house in Arcadia in a thousand years. Jim is delighted and happy to finally be with Claire after running from the hunt, and they share a kiss under the stars. Claire brought along some pies for them, but forgot that Jim cannot eat human food when he chomps the basket instead. While enjoying their night in the later-to-be Arcadia, Claire figures out what Merlin told Jim. He tries to explain, but she mistook it that he believed Merlin's amulet would choose him, but believes that one Trollhunter is enough. They share a warm hug as Claire expresses that she wouldn't lose her boyfriend again. Claire then shows off her magic to impress Jim and they decide to stay a few more minutes before preparing for the Battle of Killahead.

Back in Dwoza, Merlin and Douxie present the completed amulet to the trolls, which will choose a champion to protect human and trollkind from Gunmar and the Gumm-Gumms. Douxie awakens the amulet, which chooses Callista to be its Trollhunter. However, the trolls are utterly outraged as they believed Callista to be an outcast and no warrior among their people, which makes her run away in distraught. Vendel coldly banishes Arthur and the other humans out of Dwoza, believing their agreement to be a waste of time. Jim and the others are shocked that the amulet choose Callista because they thought that Deya was supposed to be the first Trollhunter. Either way, without the Trollhunter and the good trolls, the Battle of Killahead Bridge will be a bloodbath. Jim believes he knows where Callista ran off to and asks Claire to teleport them to her.

Jim finds Callista back in the ruins of Tombro, trying to refuse the amulet, but it keeps coming back to her. Jim talks to her and explains that he was chosen to be a hero, too, yet the trolls were just as wary as they were when she was chosen. She expresses that she's afraid that no one will follow her, but Jim assures her that it's okay to be afraid because she has the ability to make a difference, even make a name for herself. He then leaves to get ready for battle and wishes to meet her on the battlefield soon.

The Battle of Killahead Jim is present with Arthur's army, ready to fight against the Gumm-Gumms. As the sun sets, the two sides clash in a battle to rid the evil trolls and prevent the Eternal Night. Jim manages to grab himself a sword and fights back, yet his injury continues to affect his ability to fight. With an encouraging kiss from Claire, he keeps fighting.

However, when Arthur is killed by Bellroc, the Gumm-Gumms begin to overcome the knights. Luckily, in the nick of time, the trolls and Callista (who later discovered her name is actually Deya) arrive on the battlefield as she summons her armor and frees Jim and Claire. While Claire heads off to find Douxie, Jim and Steve continue to fight against the remaining Gumm-Gumms and are saved by Deya. Steve is amazed by her fighting skills, but Jim explains that they have to escort Deya to Killahead so she can face off against Gunmar, exile him and the Gumm-Gumms to the Darklands, and save history.

Jim urges Deya to use the amulet to activate Killahead Bridge, which opens a portal and sucks the Gumm-Gumms, unknowingly Dictatious, and Gunmar all into their prison. In the process, the Heart of Avalon activates and the entire castle of Camelot rises into the air, ready to open a time rift.

As Douxie, Claire, Steve, and Jim prepare to return to the present, Jim finally tells Claire that there's no cure for the shard in his chest and once he passes through the rift, it'll corrupt his heart. Claire is saddened and distraught, but Douxie promises Jim that he'll find a way to save him somehow and restore his humanity once their battle with the Arcane Order and the Green Knight is over. Claire assures Jim that she'll continue to date him for a million life times, and he promises that the Green Knight's spell won't rid his love for her and he knows she'll find a way to save him, and trusts his friends will do everything they can. Douxie then drives the hover-boat into the present.

Returning to the Present As the time-traveling quartet return to Arcadia, Jim's injury begins to worsen as the shard once again crawls it's way into his heart. They race after the falling Camelot and quickly allow their endangered friends to hop aboard before the castle crashes into Arcadia Oaks High. Once they reach the ground, everyone grows concerned for Jim as his wound worsens. They are then confronted by the Green Knight, who easily outclasses the Guardians and intends on capturing Nari and the Trollhunter.

Jim suddenly remembers the time when the shard crept closer to his heart back in the past, briefly turning him feral and stronger. Knowing that he has no other choice and is about to be corrupted anyway, Jim hurries the process as it is the only way to gain an edge over the Green Knight. He becomes fully troll and urges his friends to run while he keeps the knight busy enough for them to escape. However, the Green Knight gains complete control over Beast Troll Jim and turns him into his pawn, trapping his human soul in the Shadow Realm. Without the Trollhunter, the Guardians of Arcadia seek refuge in Hex Tech to form a plan and save their fallen friend.

The Green Knight takes Jim to the Order's fortress, where he rips the Amulet of Daylight from the brainwashed hero so that the dark sorcerers can use its essence to bring Morgana back from the Shadow Realm. She is not happy to be brought back and actually enjoyed her peaceful time in the shadows. However, the Green Knight then reveals his face as the resurrected King Arthur, now a dark champion of the Arcane Order, much to his sister's disbelief.

Beast Jim sits in the chambers, awaiting the Order to finish their deal with Douxie. However, Claire finds him hiding and she asks him to follow her to safe haven. Still under Arthur's Onyx Shard's spell, Beast Jim refuses, declaring that "his king saved him" and attacks Claire instead.

Not wanting to give up on Jim, Claire asks Nari to look into Jim's soul to see if he's still there. Nari, however, could not sense the Trollhunter's soul on Earth, which makes Claire realize that Arthur trapped Jim's soul in the Shadow Realm. After a brief run in with Morgana, the two witches of shadowmancy find Jim's lost human soul, wandering across the Killahead Bridge, which is binding his soul with his inner torment. Claire manages to talk to Jim about how guilt she felt for not being able to save him back in the woods when the Green Knight attacked, but now she wants to help him and declare her everlasting love for him. When she gives him a kiss, Jim sees her and is delighted that she found him. However, Arthur's corruption begins to overtake Jim's soul as he begs Claire's help. Morgana manages to save Claire before Beast Jim could harm her. Luckily, Claire now knows that Jim is still in there, fighting for her.

When the Arcane Order and Arthur capture the Guardians and Morgana, Beast Jim watches over them while Claire continues to urge him to fight the dark magic. Beast Jim hesitates, until Douxie and Archie arrive to save their friends after trapping the Order in a time loop, and Douxie subdues the feral Beast Jim unconscious with his magic guitar. As the gang use the hoverboat to reach back to Arcadia, Beast Jim wakes up and begins attacking his friends again, despite their pleads.

Claire confronts Jim and uses her magic to reach into her boyfriend to make him see sense again, while Morgana deals with her undead brother. After Morgana strips Arthur of Excalibur, Jim grabs Claire's throat and strangles her, until her love for him begins to finally take effect on him. When Morgana uses the last of her magic to squash herself and Arthur with a piece of Camelot, Beast Jim quickly covers Claire from the large blast.

Jim is finally freed from the fallen undead king's spell and returns to his old self. However, he is suddenly turned to stone, much to everyone's dismay. As Claire cries and everyone mourns for their presumed fallen Trollhunter, Claire's tears lands on Jim's stone body, causing it to glow and crumble. From the stone rumble, Jim emerges, alive and back in his human form. Claire is overjoyed to have her boyfriend back, alive and well, and the two share a hug.

After Douxie returns from the borders of afterlife, he is surprised and relieved that Jim is okay and back in his old human self. With Arthur defeated, someone needs to wield Excalibur. Everyone urges Jim to give it a try, but he fails. He wonders if he was still the Trollhunter without the Amulet of Daylight. Douxie explains that their strengths don't really come from magic artifacts, but from the love of their friends. With the Arcane Order still at large with the Genesis Seals in their possession, Douxie bids farewell to Jim and his friends as he must protect Nari far away from Arcadia, but promises to return someday soon.

After Douxie's departure, Jim gives Claire another heartwarming hug, ready to resume his normal life in Arcadia. However, Jim thoughtfully glances at Excalibur still awaiting its new master...

Rise of the Titans Some time after the events of Wizards, Douxie Casperan, Nari and Archie are ambushed by the arrival of the Arcane Order in a Metro City subway train. Jim Lake Jr., equipped with a serrator, and Claire Nuñez portaled in to provide backup in the ensuing battle. Toby Domzalski accidentally broke the train’s brake lever, which was supposed to stop the train to allow Stuart, Krel Tarron and Steve Palchuk to use trifurcate radiation to nullify the Arcane Order’s magic. While Jim is wounded in battle against Bellroc, the subway train drives off of its tracks and Douxie conjures a magic railroad to lead the train down safely. Afterwards, Douxie discreetly casts a magic spell that switches his and Nari’s consciousnesses and lets the Order take him instead.

In the newly rebuilt Camelot castle, Jim recovers from his wounds and his mother reveals that she is engaged with Strickler, and the latter asks Jim if he’d be his best man, which he accepts.

All of the Guardians of Arcadia then gather around the Round Table to discuss the Arcane Order. Blinky reads the information from Merlin's Grimoire, which says that the Arcane Order seek to use the previously stolen Genesis Seals to awaken their three Titans, which, when combined in the center of the universe, will make Earth rebirth from the age of first creation. The heroes realize that the center of the universe is their home town, Arcadia Oaks.

Upon discovering Douxie's transmogrification spell, Bellroc and Skrael elect to break it, causing both the sorcerer and Nari pain. Nari, in agonizing pain, tells Jim before she’s reverted back to her own body that “Trollhunter make Ninth Configuration. Krohnisfere will make right.” After Douxie is returned, the team debates on what Nari’s message could mean, and Stuart asks Jim if he knows since Nari mentioned “Trollhunter.” After reminding him that he isn’t the Trollhunter anymore, Krel gifts him a new, rebuilt amulet made from Akiridion technology and Merlin’s blueprints. Jim graciously accepts it, and then asks Douxie where the Arcane Order is. Douxie describes to the rest of the team where Nari was being held captive. Blinky deduced from his description that she is being held in a roundhouse.

Claire shadow portals them to the location, but there is no sign of the Arcane Order. After searching the room, Douxie has a revelation, that the roundhouse is analogous to how the Amulet mechanizes an incantation, and is a giant mechanical invocation. He performs a magic spell that activates the roundhouse’s gears, which uncovers the Order’s shroud, and reveals Bellroc and Skrael performing the ritual to summon the Titans, with Nari being under Bellroc’s control. The team tries to stop them to no avail, and Jim attempts to use his amulet, but it doesn’t work. The Arcane Order finish their ritual and are sent through the ground to awaken their Titans.

The Guardians of Arcadia then began their plan of action. Soon, a large argument broke out between everyone on whether or not they should fight. Jim broke up the fight, saying that they don’t have time to fight each other, and he needs everyone to trust him and the amulet. Aja begrudgingly agreed saying she’ll do things Jim’s way until the Akiridion ships arrive. Jim speculates that the new amulet needs to carry Merlin’s magic, like the old one. Jim sent Stuart and Krel to retrieve Excalibur, and tells Claire to lead a team to find the Kronisfere. Aja tells Krel that if Jim fails, she will not, and tells Krel to contact Varvatos Vex and deploy their secret weapon. Before all the teams departed, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! said their final goodbyes in case either of them fell. AAARRRGGHH!!! then left with Nomura and Douxie. Jim confessed to Claire that he was doubtful of being able to save the world and that he was worried they would never see each other again. Claire gave him consolation in telling him she would always be in his mind and heart. Toby then walked in and told them that Blinky didn’t know what team to place him in which wasn’t good for his self esteem and Jim told him that Toby is with him and always will be.

The heroes then make a plan. Jim needs the stone from Excalibur’s hilt for his new amulet and sends Krel, Stuart, Steve and Eli to fetch Excalibur (which is still stuck on the stone), Claire leads a team consisting of Blinky, Archie and Charlemagne to Hong Kong in search for the Krohnisfere, which is in the hands of Zong-Shi, the leader of the TrollDragons in their Trollmarket), and the rest of the heroes try their best to defeat the Titans. Stricklander and Nomura are killed in battles against Nari and Skrael's titans, and Jim’s team (consisting of Toby and Aja) travels to Hong Kong after receiving no contact from Claire’s team. While on their way to the TrollDragons' Trollmarket, Jim’s team discovers that Bellroc’s titan is approaching a bridge until Varvatos Vex arrives in a mecha suit designed by Eli, inspired by Gun Robot, a fictional character from the same universe. Bellroc destroys the mecha suit but Varvatos manages to flee to safety. Jim and Toby manage to rescue Claire’s team and escape the Trollmarket and Jim burns his right hand in the process. However, both Charlemagne and Archie stay behind to fend off an entire army of TrollDragons. The heroes reunite and Douxie manages to get inside Nari’s head, unlocking her free will. Nari, on the side of the heroes, battles with Skrael’s titan and the two kill each other in the ensuing battle.

The heroes discover that Bellroc’s titan is not destroyed by Skrael and Nari’s defeat and is still marching towards Arcadia Oaks. The heroes then realizes that Blinky missed a page that the titans had to unite with the Heartstone, not each other. In addition, if only one titan unites with the Heartstone, the Earth will be reborn from the element that member wields (in this case, Bellroc will remake the world as a desolate land of lava and fire, completely devoid of life). The heroes meet up in Arcadia Oaks, and Jim fails once again to lift Excalibur off of the stone, until he realizes that the Ninth Configuration is meant to represent him and his friends. As his friends place their hands on the stone and surround him, Jim ultimately pulls Excalibur off of the stone, and sends Stuart off to replace the new amulet’s stone with Excalibur’s. All of the heroes struggle to defeat Bellroc in an epic battle. Jim then accepts that the amulet never made him a hero, but that he already was one. The new amulet manages to come towards him, and in new armor, Jim faces off against Bellroc in an epic spar. Meanwhile, Toby rushes the truck, carrying the anti-magic ray, and he uses it stop Bellroc from using their magic, with gives Jim the opportunity to kill Bellroc with Excalibur, causing their titan to fall to the ground. As the heroes celebrate their victory and Steve giving birth to seven babies, Toby is nowhere in sight, and Jim rushes to search for him. He finds that Toby has been crushed by the debris. A dying Toby then takes his last breath, leaving all of the heroes in grief.

New Timeline Afterwards, Jim realizes that the Krohnisfere was never meant to stop the titans, but to prevent most of the tragedy everyone has been through from happening, and only he will remember what really happened. He gives his last goodbye to everyone before his consciousness and memories travel back to the very same morning where he found the amulet, and resurrects his fallen friends, including Toby. After realizing his friend's worthiness as a hero, Jim decides to allow Toby to take over the mantle of Trollhunter and use his knowledge of the future to ensure a better outcome for himself and his friends.

Physical Description Human

"The way we managed to balance Jim 'teenager' and Jim 'Trollhunter' is all thanks to the design of his armor. Since he is such a skinny character, the only way to make him look like a warrior was to create an armor that would fit his shape and yet enhance his size in a natural way."

The Team at Headless Animation Studio.

In his human form, Jim is about 5 feet 6 inches tall[3] with a slim build. By his own admission[4] and Krel,[5] he has skinny legs. He has blue eyes and short black hair. After regaining his human form at the end of Wizards, Jim now has two scars on his face, one on his left cheek (originating from his fight during Angor Rot and Gunmar) and one over his right eyebrow (which was the result of AAARRRGGHH!!! trying to subdue him in his corrupted beast form). He later loses his scars after the end of the Trollhunters movie.

Unarmored, Jim wears a blue zip-up jacket with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and a white shirt underneath. He has blue jeans with a black belt and high-top blue and white sneakers. While hunting down Skrael's titan in Greenland, he wears a heavy blue/indigo jacket with a hood.

While using the Amulet of Daylight, Jim's armor was a silver suit of knight's armor, complete with a breastplate (the chest area), pauldrons (the shoulder areas), vambraces (the forearm areas), gauntlets (the hand areas), cuisses (the thigh areas), poleyns (the knee areas), greaves (the leg areas), and sabatons (the feet areas), and the amulet in the middle of Jim's heart with blue trimmings. Underneath the armor, there was a black inner layer.

While wielding the Eclipse Blade, this armor was black with red trimmings. Both armors had their respective amulets mounted on the left side of the breastplates, and occasionally their swords (Daylight and Eclipse) were stowed on the backs of the armors.

He is fully encased in a form-fitting futuristic metallic armor composed of segmented plates with a polished silver and steel-grey finish, featuring a rigid chestplate molded with central ridges, segmented shoulder guards with raised rims, form-fitting upper arm coverings, articulated forearm bracers, dark flexible under-suit material visible at the joints and waist, segmented pelvic and hip plating, sculpted thigh guards, rigid knee cops, shin guards, and articulated metallic footwear covering the feet completely.

Half-Troll

"I remember sitting in the editing room watching the final five episodes. And after you get over the initial shock of seeing Jim in altered form, by the time you're in episode 51, he's just Jim. You're not thinking about him as Troll-Jim; he's just Jim. And that to me was very special."

Marc Guggenheim, Executive Producer.

How Jim Lake Jr. became a Half-Troll:

Merlin ties Jim up and reveals that the ingredients he sent him to retrieve were actually components of an elixir that would transform him into a troll, more specifically a half-troll. He explains that the potion must be mixed with water and used as a bath, from which Jim will emerge as a new creature.

Merlin tells Jim that, while he slept, he realized through his dreams that he needed a champion capable of defending both the human and troll worlds from evil. The Amulet chose Jim to become the first human Trollhunter, but that never meant he would remain fully human forever. To become strong enough to face what is coming, he must become part troll.

Merlin also explains that the transformation is permanent. If Jim truly values the people in his life and wants to protect both worlds, he must change his physical form. Even so, Merlin respects that the decision is entirely Jim's. Jim can remain human and risk the fate of the world, or become half-troll to even the odds.

Jim goes upstairs wearing his Eclipse Armor, pours the elixir into the bathtub, and reflects on everything he has experienced since becoming the Trollhunter. Outside, his friends desperately pound on the bathroom door, begging him not to do it. Having made his decision, Jim steps into the elixir, beginning his transformation.

A couple of nights later, Jim manages to find his way home in a confused and disoriented state. After collapsing inside the house, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! arrive and discover an unconscious humanoid troll lying on the living room couch, looking remarkably like Jim.

As Jim begins adapting to his enhanced abilities, he also discovers the disadvantages of being part troll. He can no longer eat human food, cannot live normally in the human world, and sunlight burns him. Barbara tries to comfort him, but he can only consume silverware and kitchen appliances. Frustrated and overwhelmed, he brushes her aside and retreats to his bedroom.

He attempts to remove his armor, but because of his emotional turmoil, the Amulet refuses to release it. Looking through his old yearbook, he stares at the photograph of his former human self. Realizing he can no longer attend school, graduate, or live the ordinary life he once dreamed of, he gives in to his feral instincts and runs away.

Jim sneaks back into his school and reflects on his former human life, realizing he can never return to those days. He carves his name into his old desk and becomes increasingly feral. Claire and Toby try to reason with him, but Jim insists that the person they knew is gone and runs away.

When they catch up with him again, Jim calms slightly, yet continues expressing that he can no longer do the things that made him human or be the same person. Claire and Toby reassure him that regardless of his appearance, they still love him and that he remains the same Jim on the inside. Merlin arrives and reminds everyone that Gunmar is still free.

In his half-troll form, Jim's skin becomes blue. His hair grows longer, darker, and more unkempt. He develops two large lower fangs, prominent curved horns, and pointed ears. His right hand becomes significantly larger, more troll-like, and loses its little finger, while his left hand remains human but protected by armor.

Since his transformation, Jim is consistently seen wearing his Eclipse Armor. In Wizards, his right troll hand is equipped with a gauntlet. After the Green Knight's ambush in New Jersey, the armor becomes visibly battered and scratched. Following the return through time, an Onyx Shard becomes embedded in his chest where the Amulet is located, threatening to reach his heart and corrupt him.

After using Merlin's elixir, Jim's body displays an even medium-blue pigmentation across all exposed skin. He is a young male troll with the appearance of a young adult human, standing at average human height with a fit, athletic, and agile build.

His face has pronounced cheekbones and a strong jawline. His eyes are large with grey-blue irises and thick black eyelashes. His eyebrows are thick, dark, and naturally arched. His nose is broad with large nostrils. His lips are thin and share the same blue coloration as his skin.

His ears are blue, sharply pointed, and resemble those of an elf. His neck is thick and sturdy, leading into broad shoulders.

His hair is deep black, occasionally showing subtle bluish highlights under darker lighting. It remains thick, layered, voluminous, and highly textured, preserving the silhouette of his former human hairstyle while becoming considerably fuller and wilder. It is asymmetrical, with a heavy fringe sweeping almost completely across the left side of his forehead, partially covering his left eyebrow.

The sides and back extend outward into pronounced spikes, framing his pointed ears and continuing naturally into thick sideburns that blend into the hairline along the jaw. Two distinct locks emerge beneath the bases of his horns, wrapping naturally around them so the transition between scalp and horns appears seamless. Initially, his sideburns are wild and unrefined, later becoming more structured as his transformation stabilizes.

Two large brown ram-like horns extend from the sides of his head and curve backward. They possess distinct ridges and a lighter tan texture than their darker base.

His lower jaw features two large white fangs curving upward from each side of his mouth, with smaller teeth visible between them.

The visible skin on his face, ears, neck, nape, and troll hand appears smooth without noticeable markings or rough textures.

His right troll hand is blue and much more robust than his human hand. It has four long, slender fingers, each ending in a short, square-shaped nail. The nails are dark, almost black. Although troll-like, their size and shape resemble human fingernails rather than claws. Across the Tales of Arcadia universe, troll fingernails vary considerably in appearance; for example, Blinky's are approximately human-sized.

His left hand remains human but is protected by the Eclipse gauntlet. The left gauntlet is fully complete, while the right gauntlet is absent in Trollhunters. In Wizards, the right gauntlet includes articulated finger armor.

Jim's left chest contains the integrated red Daylight Amulet. The rear compartment of the Amulet and its internal metal gears are embedded directly into the center of his chest. The Amulet's exposed magical core, together with the Triumbric Stones he collected, remains visible within his body, magically suspended and continuously rotating.

He wears an intricate, form-fitting suit of Eclipse Armor in dark gunmetal gray with deep red accents. The segmented armor covers the chest, back, shoulders, upper arms, forearms, thighs, lower legs, and feet, connected by a darker flexible undersuit.

Bright glowing patterns resembling veins or magical circuits run across every armored component, primarily glowing red, with additional yellow and green energy flowing through the design. A circular emblem in the center of the chest glows intensely red.

The helmet is fully enclosed with sharp, angular contours and a vertical glowing red visor. Small curved horn-like projections extend backward from its upper sides.

A rigid gorget protects the neck. Large multi-layered pauldrons protect the shoulders. Segmented rerebraces, couters, vambraces, articulated gauntlets, cuirass, plackart, tassets, faulds, cuisses, knee guards, greaves, and articulated sabatons complete the armor.

The armored boots end in metallic claw-like shapes designed for grip.

A large oval shield is mounted on the left forearm. It is predominantly dark blue or purple and bears the same glowing red, yellow, and green energy patterns radiating from its central core.

Jim wields a massive two-handed sword in his right hand. The blade is extremely wide, dark, and curves slightly near its tip. A distinctive notch is carved into the back edge close to the hilt. Both the blade's edge and the central channel emit an intense red glow. The crossguard and pommel are dark and decorated with matching red, yellow, and green luminous accents. The sword is typically held with its point angled downward toward the ground.

The armor plates appear to be made from a dark metallic or otherwise unknown material, with the glowing magical patterns embedded directly into their surface.

Personality I think the appealing part about Jim is we all know him in real life somewhere, and I feel like Jim makes the courageous choices we would make in any given situation. Elaine Bogan, Director

At the start of the series, Jim was shown being the caretaker around the house, cooking meals for himself and his mother, Barbara Lake. Despite it being Barbara's job to take care of him, he likes taking care of her because of how much work she does as a doctor. He is also shown to have a reputation for being an all-around cool guy, though it is implied that this is just to get people to like him.

Jim can get nervous often, as he didn't want to accept his new position as the Trollhunter, having never been in a fight before, or was too nervous to ask his crush, Claire, to the dance. However, when he perseveres and tries, despite his fear, he can succeed in his job, which proves how brave and hard-working he really is. Jim was also reluctant to kill people as part of his job, but when he started gaining more self-defense instincts, he became somewhat brave enough to do it. After getting used to being the Trollhunter, he was braver than ever, such as when fighting against Bular and the Changelings.

Jim is very protective of his loved ones, to the point where he might be considered overprotective. To keep his loved ones safe, like his friends Toby, Claire, Blinky, Draal, AAARRRGGHH!!!, or his mom, he will often try to keep them out of a fight and finish it alone, taking many risks to keep them safe. Another sign of his overprotectiveness is that he's willing to lie to his mom about his Trollhunting to keep her from worrying about him. This puts a big strain on their formerly close relationship, but Jim does it nonetheless believing it is best she doesn't know or get involved in the Troll world.

He's definitely willing to keep lying for his loved ones' safety no matter what the consequences are, even when they spoil his "good boy" reputation toward the people he knows like his teachers, Claire, and especially his mom. Most of all, when his mom finally found out he is the Trollhunter, she had her memory erased and she made him promise to tell her again later. Jim did promise, however, he chooses to break his promise again so she wouldn't worry, even though lying is what caused her to nearly die in the first place. Despite being overprotective and a little bumbling, he knows when he can't accomplish things without help from his team. It's also something he's been learning to overcome, particularly after his dream sequence from Unkar.

Jim is also a bit of the jealous type, since he hated it when Douxie flirted with Claire and when she giggled at his witty comments.

When Merlin had Jim change himself into a half-troll, he was reluctant because he would lose half of his humanity forever. After a little consideration and reflections on all he had been through, he willingly turned himself into a troll hybrid. Initially, Jim enjoyed his new feral state and abilities, but then he became depressed when he found out that he couldn't go into the sunlight, eat human food, or go back to school. He felt as if he could never be with his loved ones again and was to remain a monster forever. He was then reminded by his loved ones that he could still have an exciting life, despite it no longer being a normal one.

When he became corrupted by King Arthur's dark magic, he became a monstrous troll with no humanity left and unwillingly loyal only to King Arthur for "freeing" him. However, Claire managed to reach him and he returned to his old generous and thoughtful self.

Troll

How Jim Lake became a Troll and was corrupted: Troll: Jim suddenly remembers the time when the shard crept closer to his heart back in the past, briefly turning him feral and stronger. Knowing that he has no other choice and is about to be corrupted anyway, Jim hurries the process as it is the only way to gain an edge over the Green Knight. He becomes fully troll and urges his friends to run while he keeps the knight busy enough for them to escape.

Troll

After being corrupted by the Green Knight's onyx shard, Jim became a much larger indigo beastly troll (bigger or as big as AAARRRGGHH!!!), and his armor had been completely torn. His horns grew longer, his sideburns and hair grew into a mane, and he had blue crystal-like spikes growing out the back of his neck. When under his own control, his eyes and linings glowed red. When under the Green Knight's control, they glowed yellow. Whenever Claire tried to reach him, they glowed purple. He later lost this form soon after Arthur's demise, got turned to stone, and emerged from the rubble back in his original human form

Details: Jim Lake Jr. in his troll beast form is a massive, muscular bipedal creature standing well over eight feet tall with an incredibly powerful, wide-shouldered physique and a heavily built, athletic frame. His skin is a deep, stony slate blue that serves as a canvas for a network of glowing, jagged fissures resembling volcanic or magical cracks, which pulsate with bright crimson red light when corrupted or shift to a vibrant, electric yellow-gold when powered by alternative magical forces. This energy radiates outward from a central circular core or scar located on his left pectoral muscle.

His head is large, imposing, and blocky with a square, prominent jawline and a rugged, thick facial structure that tapers up to a broad forehead. Atop his head sit two large, dark, textured horns that curve upward and backward, resembling those of a ram or a bull, adding significant height and menace to his silhouette. His ears are pointed and distinctly elven or goblin-like, stretching outward from the sides of his head. His eyes are entirely supernatural, featuring glowing irises that shine with either a piercing crimson red or a bright golden yellow depending on his current state, and they lack visible human pupils, giving him an intensely predatory, feral stare beneath heavy, low-set, stony brow ridges. His mouth is wide, lined with a row of sharp, prominent fangs, with two larger lower canines that protrude upward over his upper lip even when his mouth is closed, reinforcing his monstrous appearance. His hair is a thick, dark, and wild mane that runs from the top of his head down to the nape of his neck, styled in a messy, swept-back fashion with spiky tufts framing his face, though it lacks any neat or defined human hairstyle.

His upper body is defined by an immense chest, exceptionally wide shoulders, and long, heavily muscled arms that end in large, powerful hands with thick fingers and sharpened, claw-like nails. On his left shoulder, he wears a piece of dark, metallic armor that fits over his massive deltoid. Aside from this armor piece, he does not wear traditional clothing on his torso, leaving his muscular chest, back, and torso completely bare to display the glowing energy patterns across his skin. His lower body is clad in dark, form-fitting trousers or leg coverings that extend down to his lower limbs, blending into his powerful legs. He does not wear traditional human shoes, as his large, heavy feet are built to support his immense weight, ending in thick, sturdy toes suitable for a creature of his massive scale. The pigmentation of its color in its Troll form is an indigo blue.

Powers & Abilities Powers Peak Human Condition: After months of being trained by trolls, Jim has grown significantly stronger and more durable than an average teenager. Agility: With his skinny and lean build, Jim is quite nimble and agile for a boy his age. With or without his armor, he mostly uses his agility as his style of combat and/or evasive action Strength: Despite his more skinny build, Jim was shown strong enough to knock Steve out cold with one punch, as well as knock out his tooth. In "It's About Time", Jim was able to drag Blinky (who has reverted back to troll form) onto his Vespa and into Trollmarket with much strain. Endurance: Due to his months of training, Jim can endure more physical discomfort than an average human. Durability: Even without his armor, he has withstood many blows that would've severely injured a teenager his age. He was barely fazed by a punch in the face from Steve. When Nomura threw him and crashed into the kitchen counter, he got back up to his feet, despite obviously being worn out from his match with Draal earlier. Stamina: At first, Jim's stamina was about the same as other teenagers his age. As his training progresses, however, he is able to exert himself for long periods of time before fatigue impairs him. Reflexes: Even before training, Jim has excellent reflexes, something even Blinky took note of. He was able to avoid a large floor blade in the Hero's Forge by just quickly rolling and running away, despite being in [extreme] close range. Athleticism: Jim's natural proficiency of acrobatics and gymnastics has developed beyond even the most dedicated of human training. Thanks to his more dangerous training, he could easily surpass the most difficult of normal gym challenges, like dodgeball, climbing a rope, etc. Human-Troll Hybrid Physiology (formerly): After using Merlin's elixir potion, Jim became a hybrid of human and troll. He was granted greater strength, speed, durability, stamina, senses, agility, and reflexes to where he was able to defeat Angor Rot and Gunmar simultaneously. Merlin even claimed that Jim was capable of performing feats beyond that of a human and troll. However, after being freed from the Green Knight's corruption in "Our Final Act" and revived by Claire's tears, he was reverted back to his original human form permanently. Superhuman Strength: Jim's strength was enhanced to the point he could hurtle Gunmar into a building with nothing but his might, as well as knocking him several feet away with a rookie. He was also able to tackle AAARRRGGHH!!! a few feet away. Superhuman Endurance: Jim could endure more than an average human or troll. Superhuman Durability: Thanks to his stone skin, Jim's durability was increased to where he could withstand many of Morgana's deadly spells, managing a nosebleed (which was human red, instead of purple or green like other trolls and changelings). When AAARRRGGHH!!! punched Jim, he openly claimed that "[he] didn't feel a thing." Superhuman Stamina: Jim was able to physically exert himself for long periods of time without wearing himself out. Superhuman Speed: Jim was fast enough to outrun Claire and her Shadow Staff, even appearing as a blur. Claire even claimed that Jim was moving so fast during their chase that she lost track of him. Superhuman Reflexes: He was able to react to most attacks with incredible ease. He was able to easily evade every single strike from Claire, as well as Gunmar and Angor Rot’s. Superhuman Agility: Jim was much more agile than an average human or troll. Superhuman Leaping: As a half-troll, Jim could jump higher and farther than a normal troll, perhaps about as high as Nomura, Zadra, and Aja. Superhuman Senses: Jim's senses of smell, sight, and sound were much more acute than an average human's. Matter Indigestion: As a half-troll, Jim was capable of consuming and digesting any substance without any problems. However, he sadly lost his appetite for most human food, especially his own. Longevity: As a half-troll, Jim most likely possessed a troll's ability to live for hundreds of years, but was still vulnerable to death and could fall in battle. Sunlight Resistance: As a troll hybrid, despite the obvious pain, Jim was much more resistant to sunlight than ordinary trolls. However, he still couldn't completely walk in the daytime for as long as he wanted, because prolonged exposure to the sun was extremely lethal to him. Troll Physiology (briefly): After being corrupted by the Green Knight's onyx shard in "Wizard Underground", Jim became a much larger full-troll. While he was still in control of himself, Jim was able to hold off and gain an edge over the Green Knight, allowing his friends time to escape, at least until his human soul winds up trapped in the Shadow Realm. Under the Green Knight's control, despite his bulkier build and feral mind, Jim still retained his fighting skills as he was able to easily overcome and outwit AAARRRGGHH!!!, and he was durable enough to take a huge whack on the head from Douxie's magic guitar (albeit briefly unconscious). Luckily, by the end of "Our Final Act", Claire was able to free him from the Green Knight's corruption and restore him back to his old human self. Trollhunter/Excalibur Magic: After being chosen by the Amulet of Daylight, Jim was able to summon his armor and weapons by chanting "For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command!", although sometimes he was shown activating the amulet without speaking the incantation since it also reacted to his emotional state. Jim was able to manipulate his armor in any way he desired, including his sword, glaives, shield, and helmet. After his transformation into a half-troll, the armor appeared to have permanently attached itself to his body. However, as explained by one of the show’s writers, this was because Jim was under a massive emotional turmoil that his amulet locked him in his armor and tried to protect him until he ever felt "safe". After having a new amulet made using alien tech and Merlin’s design (this is a new amulet, as the old one was destroyed completely) in Rise of the Titans and placing a stone from Excalibur inside, Jim effectively regained his abilities. Enchanted Armor: Jim's armor was made of pure daylight, so therefore possessed magical properties to protect him. Near-Enhanced Strength: In his armor, he was strong enough to armlock Stricklander (who was in his troll form) tightly while injuring the changeling's arm in the process. He was also shown helping Draal up while his armor gave him some aid. However, even with his armor, his strength clearly still did not surpass a troll's or Gumm-Gumm's. Enhanced Durability: Thanks to his magical armor, Jim has been seen taking hits that would have almost certainly broken an ordinary person's bones, as well as withstanding Bular's crushing grip. In "Bittersweet Sixteen", he has even withstood a high-altitude lightning strike, which was sufficient enough to kill a Stalkling and would have severely injured, if not killed, an ordinary human. Weaponry Summoning: With the amulet activated, Jim was able to summon his weapons into existence. Sword Conjuring: Jim was able to summon Daylight (including his Eclipse Blade), as well as willing the sword to return to his hand in combat or switching hands. Later on, he was able to call Excalibur to his hands after pulling it from stone after finding out how to do it and being helpped by his friends. Glaive Conjuring (formerly): After cleaving the Birthstone, Jim gained the ability to summon two glaives from his thighs, which acted a lot like boomerangs and responded to his command. Shield Conjuring (formerly): After faceting the Killstone, Jim gained the ability to summon a warrior's shield on his left forearm, which protected him from most attacks. Helmet Conjuring (formerly): After compressing the Eye of Gunmar, Jim gained the ability to summon a large helmet, which protected him from lethal damage and Gunmar's Decimaar Blade. He could also open and close it with his thoughts. Barrier Generation: With his sword, Jim was able to create a barrier around himself to temporarily protect himself from harm. He was able to use Daylight to refract an incoming tidal wave of water[6] and briefly protect himself from being restrained from Morgana's magic blast.[7] Sword Light Beam: Jim first used this in "The Battle of Two Bridges" while giving Bular a killing strike. He attempted to use this power on Morgana, but due to her immortality, the sword's magic was completely useless. Light Wave Emission: At his most powerful, Jim was able to release a wave of pure daylight to repel Gunmar and Angor Rot's blades away from him (as well as petrify a couple of Gumm-Gumms and blow a car several feet away).[8] Magic Deflection: With Excalibur, Jim was able to deflect Bellroc's enhanced fireball attacks. Supernatural Detection: With his amulet, Jim was able to detect any supernatural creatures, but limited if they were around his area. However, given the amulet responded differently with Jim (due to being human), this ability was usually unreliable and/or unpredictable. Temporal Protection: Most uniquely, as discovered by Nari and Jim himself, he is immune to time alterations due to his armor assimilating the Time Stone, which allows him to retain awareness of previous timelines, even when others may not. Timeline Memory Retainment: First shown in "Unbecoming", when Unkar (actually Merlin) sends Jim into an alternate timeline where he wasn't chosen by the amulet; this was deliberately created by Merlin to teach Jim a lesson. When it happens during the end of Rise of the Titans it was due to the effects of the Time stone; in this new timeline Jim is not chosen to wield the amulet, probably due to Jim already being in possession of his new amulet. Jim is able retain all of his memories, due to Jim's amulet protecting his memories and allowing him to maintain awareness within the time loops. However, during 3below, when he (along with his friends) restart time themselves, he forgot everything about his new Akiridion friends, mostly because he willingly took part in resetting the timeline. In Rise of the Titans, after using the Time Stone to travel back to the moment his adventure began, Jim retained all of his memories in the past two years and planned on using his knowledge to give his friends a better future. Although many things can be set right, and many friends saved, one of the permanent consequences of the timeline reset, is that Aja and Steve’s children have been erased from existence; they may still have children in the future but they won’t be the ones seen in the movie. Time Travel: With the Time Stone in his new amulet, Jim was able to travel back in time to the events of "Becoming: Part 1", all with his memories intact. In wizards it is shown that two amulets can exist at the same time, so When Jim traveled back in time with his new one, it will still remain in his possession, which is why the old Amulet chose Toby instead, as Jim has already been accounted for. In the new timeline both Toby and Jim now have Amulets- Jim the new Magiktech one and Toby the Original one, made by Merlin. Camouflage (with Eclipse Armor; formerly): With the Eclipse Armor, Jim could blend himself within darkness, which made him appear almost invisible in the dark (especially during the night or in the Darklands). In fact, as described by Jim in A Brief Recapitulation of Troll Lore Volume 48, the armor acted a lot like a stealth suit. Surface Adhesion (briefly): In the episode "Hero with a Thousand Faces", Jim was briefly able to walk on vertical surfaces through the use of an unknown stone, previously used by Araknak the Agile. He had to keep his focus in order to stay on the surface so if he lost concentration, he would fall. Later, in Rise of the Titans, Douxie placed a sticky enchantment on Jim that allowed him to run up the giant Titans. Duplication (briefly): In the episode "Hero with a Thousand Faces", Jim was briefly able to summon clones of himself (though in different aspects of his personality) through the use of the Aspectus Stone, previously used by Maddrux the Many. However, he had little-to-no control over his own clones, like when Hunter Jim turned against him. Counteracting Angor Rot's Magics (formerly): After cutting the Eye of Angor Rot and placing it into his amulet, Jim gained the ability to ward off Angor's magics. He also regained possession of Daylight in their last encounter. Abilities Charisma: It has been stated by others (Blinky, in particular) that Jim's greatest strength is his humanity and love for others, no matter the cost. It has allowed him to inspire others to find greatness in themselves and come to his aid whenever possible. Even some of his enemies have been inspired by his sense of honor, like Strickler and Nomura. Even after becoming half-troll, it appears that this trait has not diminished at all. He reminded Angor Rot of the hero he used to be before he became Morgana's slave, which convinced him to turn against her and give the Trollhunters the opening they need to seal her away for good. Indomitable Will: Jim has a strong sense of will, as he is greatly determined to save his loved ones no matter what, even if odds are close to none. His strong will was most notably shown when he resisted Gunmar's cursed blade to where he was deemed almost-to-completely immune to its brainwashing effects. He even tried to fight against the Green Knight's corruption over him (with aid from Claire). Gifted Orator: Jim is a skilled spokesperson, being able to win the hearts and minds of human and trolls alike into his cause. Swordsmanship: After training with Draal, Jim is an accomplished swordsman, able to hold off against Nomura, Strickler, and even Bular. Jim's proficiency has extended beyond Daylight as well, as he is able to parry Angor Rot's attacks with his newly discovered daggers, hold off Nomura using only a frying pan in his house, and fight Strickler with a fork and knife. However, as proven in "A House Divided", his sword skills are no match for Merlin's. While transformed into a half-troll, his swordsmanship has increased to where he could fight Gunmar and Angor Rot blade-to-blade. Knife Proficiency: Along with his swordsman skills, Jim is highly skilled with knives, due to his years of cooking experience. As shown in "Becoming: Part 1", he spins his kitchen knives in one hand with incredible dexterity, and even throwing it in its proper place with great aim. For fighting, he's able to go on par with Strickler in "Recipe for Disaster" with nothing but an eating knife, and can wield/control his newfound glaives after unlocking them with the Birthstone. Driving: Jim is good at driving as he was able to to drive his vespa through school, get to Blinky, go to Trollmarket, get the Inferna Copula from Strickler, and find Angor Rot. Engineering: Jim does have decent building capabilities, him alongside Blinky was able to put together Jim's vespa over time. He was also able to install traps alongside Draal and Strickler to fight off Angor Rot. Albeit briefly, Jim was able to operate a serrator to fight Bellroc. Martial Artist: Although Jim had no formal training in martial arts, he was instructed in the art of hand-to-hand combat by Blinky and Draal. Jim's fighting style is somewhat chaotic, but he uses his agility to outsmart larger and stronger foes and get behind their guard. While he relies on his sword for most attacks, Jim has been shown to improvise punches and kicks in combat. It is most likely that he has been taught some techniques from his mother, as she is an orange-belt in Krav-Maga, prior to becoming a Trollhunter. Parkour: Jim is a natural free-runner as he was seen overcoming obstacles with little to no problem, even more so than most of his friends. Toby even takes note that he makes evading death traps in the Hero's Forge "look so easy" compared to everyone else's. His parkour skills seem to rival that of Aja Tarron. Sleep Suppression: It should be worth mentioning that, as the main caretaker of his house, Jim has trained himself to suppress his need to rest for almost an entire night. Thanks to this, he is able to actively trollhunt most nights without tiring himself completely. However, even before he began his Trollhunting life, it is mentioned that Jim has fallen asleep in class in "Becoming: Part 1". He has also slept through his alarm in "It's About Time", due to overstudying the entire night. Pain Threshold: Jim is highly resistant—but not immune—from feeling physical pain, as he's been beaten down by several stronger trolls, like Draal and Gunmar, and still kept fighting. As a half-troll, even after being injured by an Onyx Shard, he was able to tolerate it long enough to fight the Gumm-Gumms in the Battle of Killahead Bridge. Culinary Artist: Jim is an accomplished cook, making meals for himself and his overworked mother since she is a terrible cook herself. Toby and Strickler have both praised his cooking. Even after he became a troll hybrid, he was still shown to be a terrific cook (despite not being able to eat his own food anymore). Adaptor: Jim is a noticeably fast learner, as he learned how to wield Daylight, with some help from Draal, in mere moments. Eidetic Memory: Despite his tardiness and trollhunting, Jim was able to memorize all of his lines for Romeo and Juliet, even after he was reduced to an understudy. However, he's not very great with directions, as shown in "Escape from the Darklands" when he almost got lost in the Darklands. So, he had to mark down his trails with chalk. Natural Survivalist: Jim possesses remarkable knowledge of how to survive on his own, as he was able to live in the Darklands for almost two weeks in spite of having little-to-no resources. He could hunt, lure out, and trick monsters out of their dens when in search for food, all while avoiding being detected by Gumm-Gumms, goblins, Dictatious, and even Gunmar for weeks, at least until he finds Enrique. Tactician: As the de facto leader of Team Trollhunters, Jim is usually the one who comes up with the battle strategies. Although most of his plans have been foiled sometimes, such as when Strickler anticipated his attempt to send Toby, Blinky, and AAARRRGGHH!!! into his office, Jim has a knack for improvising situations to complete his missions. In "D'aja Vu", Jim devised a well-constructed plan with Krel by surprising Porgon in order to take the Dekyon Charger away from him and save the time-space continuum. Actor: In the first half of Part One, Jim is shown to be a fairly decent actor, despite never being on stage once. He was even able to land the part of Romeo for the school play (although his chronic tardiness briefly reduced him as an understudy for a time). Faceting/Cleaving: Through Vendel's teachings, Jim is able to cut, chisel, facet, and cleave gemstones and minerals in order to unlock their hidden powers. During his hunt for the Triumbric Stones, he has been seen carving and cutting the Birthstone perfectly under the direction of Vendel, the Killstone and the Eye of Gunmar by himself, and the Eye of Angor Rot under the direction of Strickler. Weaknesses Mortality: As a human, Jim possesses a mortal body, so is therefore highly vulnerable to any forms of injuries, sicknesses, and death. After his transformation into a half-troll, he presumably had a troll's ability to live for hundreds of years, but could still fall in battle, although he was changed back to human form by the end of Wizards. Sheer Will Depletion: As shown in Part Two, Jim overusing his strong will cause his amulet to lose a lot of power, essentially leaving him defenseless and unable to summon his sword. While captured by Gunmar, he tried sending Jim into countless death matches (eventually to Nomura) to break his will and would've succeeded if Claire and Toby hadn't arrived in time. Direct Sunlight (formerly): After his transformation into a half-troll, Jim possessed a troll's natural weakness to sunlight as it would burn him on contact. While he was more resistant to sunlight than regular trolls, due to being a hybrid, he could still fall from prolonged exposure.[9] Feral Instincts (formerly): After his transformation into a half-troll, Jim became prone to feral instincts. He has given in to his more animalistic side while he was immensely depressed by his newfound form. When he was corrupted by King Arthur's onyx shard, his feral side completely overtook him as his human soul was trapped in the Shadow Realm, until Claire manages to use her will power to restore all of his humanity. Once freed from the corruption, Jim regained his human form and no longer possesses a feral mind. The Mark of Angor Rot (briefly): After Angor painted his mark on Jim's face in "Blinky's Day Out", he took most of Jim's strength and even his command over Daylight whenever they confronted each other. However, after he cut Angor's eye under the direction of Strickler in "Something Rotten This Way Comes", Jim was able to counteract the mark and regain his control over Daylight. Onyx Shard (formerly): When Jim was struck with an onyx shard by the Green Knight, it tried to crawl its way towards his heart to corrupt him, so Merlin had to put him in stasis to pause the process. When he was sent to the past, despite the shard's effects being paused temporally in place, he still remained critically injured and rendered unable to summon his weapons, leaving him virtually defenseless. As told by Merlin, there was no way to remove the shard, so once he returned to the present, the process would immediately resume. When Jim hurried the process, he turned into a monstrous troll beast, devoid of humanity (yet his soul was trapped in the Shadow Realm). The only known way to reverse the effects of the onyx shard permanently was to kill its user (which, in this case, was King Arthur). When Arthur was defeated, Jim was freed from his control (yet he was immediately turned to stone). Thanks to Claire's tears, Jim regained his humanity and his original human form. Armor (occasionally): Despite its strength and protective power, Jim's armor often came with a few nicks as it limited his speed and some of his flexibility. In instances such as "Waka Chaka!" and "Young Atlas", Jim was unable to outrun a horde of goblins nor leap high enough to reach a manhole due to his armor's weight (though he seemed to have overcome these effects by the beginning of Part Two, likely due to months of practice). In "It's About Time", his armor got caught in between bars of a large grate, which forced him to remove the amulet so he could slip through and flee from a soulless Angor Rot. Humanity: Although Jim's love for the people he cares about is strong and true, as well as undoubtedly one of his greatest strengths, it can also be one of his greatest flaws sometimes. His reluctance to end a being's life and put the needs of his loved ones before his own has put himself in danger more than once. For instance, he decides to go into the Darklands by himself after AAARRRGGHH!!!'s sacrifice so he could prevent the rest of his friends from getting hurt. He even lies to his mother about his new double life to keep her safe, until it eventually got her into a load of trouble when Angor Rot attacks them. Also, as revealed in "Mistrial and Error", Jim's deepest fear is losing his humanity. Nomura, Strickler, and even Merlin try to warn him throughout Part Three that his humanity could potentially lead to his and the world's downfall if he never learns to accept his inner troll as well. Anxiety/PTSD: It was noted by Strickler that Jim suffers from anxiety, even before he became the Trollhunter. By Rise of the Titans, after two years of dealing with genuine life-or-death situations, Jim's trauma had been noticeably affecting his ability to fight, combined with the loss of his amulet and shattered confidence. It became so bad that even Strickler and Barbara suggested he should stay on the sidelines until he gets better (which he denied). In the end, he manages to overcome his trauma and was more than willing to face his past adventures to ensure he and his friends will have a happy ending. Equipment Excalibur: Although he was unable to pull the blessed sword from stone at the end of Wizards, Jim becomes its new wielder in Rise of the Titans, after the other characters joined together to release it, as a way to help him fight Bellroc and her fire titan. After gaining his new armor, Jim is able to use Excalibur to effectively kill Bellroc (with help from Toby using the Trifurcate Radiation Blaster on her). The Amulet of Daylight: As the chief weapon of Trollhunters, the amulet called out to Jim in the voice of Kanjigar and chose him as the first ever human Trollhunter. By chanting "For the Glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command!" Jim could encase himself in a medieval knight's armor, complete with the Sword of Daylight. The amulet itself allowed Jim to translate Troll into English and vice versa, and it would return to Jim if separated, as seen when he tries to dispose of it early on and later when it escaped the clutches of Strickler and Bular. The amulet could be opened and upgraded with special stones, including the Triumbric Stones, the Eye of Angor Rot, and many other gemstones with hidden powers. It was later destroyed by the Arcane Order whilst they used it to resurrect Morgana from the Shadow Realm. The original amulet was gone, but a brand new one was built for him by Krel Tarron, by combining Alien tech and Merlin’s designs, but unfortunately didn’t work until they worked out that it required a magic stone from Excalibur's hilt. By chanting "For the good of all, Daylight is mine to command", he is able to summon Magiktech Armor, which is mixed with magic and Akiridion tech. It is unknown if Jim still possesses this new amulet after traveling back in time at the end of Rise of the Titans, but it's debatable. Seeing as the old Amulet chose a different person this time around it is likely that it did so as Jim already has his new one. Magiktech Armor: Jim's new armor is a combination of magic and Akiridion technology. It was shown strong enough to protect Jim from a stab in the abdomen causing by Bellroc and her damaged staff, but briefly injured. Trollhunter Armor (formerly): Jim's armor was made of pure sunlight, which protected him from great damage, such as large blows from larger trolls like Draal and Bular. It often produced an instant but brief energy shield before his enemies landed a punch on him. Sword of Daylight (formerly): Jim's sword, Daylight, was harmful to trolls, vaporizing them on contact and blinding them with its presence. Eclipse Blade/Armor (formerly): After he found all three Triumbric Stones, his amulet gained the ability to summon his new Eclipse Armor and the Eclipse Blade. The Eclipse Blade and Armor ware essentially a recolored version of the Sword of Daylight and its armor, but with the added benefit of killing Gunmar. This source was activated with the incantation: "For the Doom of Gunmar, Eclipse is mine to command!" Gemstone Storage: According to Vendel, Merlin made the amulet malleable so that each Trollhunter could fight evil that even its creator couldn't foresee. When Jim places a magical gemstone within his amulet, he gains new armor, new powers, and/or new weapons. However, he cannot remove the stones from its compartment if the stone itself is still active. The amulet is limited to storing only six gems total. Birthstone (formerly): Jim acquired the Birthstone from Gatto's Keep in "Roaming Fees May Apply", and later cleaved it in "The Shattered King". Glaives (formerly): After cleaving the Birthstone, Jim unlocked his armor's glaives, which he could control with his thoughts. Killstone (formerly): Jim reclaimed the Killstone from Angor Rot after using the Kairosect in "It's About Time" and later cleaved it in "Wingmen". Shield (formerly): After faceting the Killstone, Jim unlocked his armor's shield, which could protect him from excessive damage in combat. Eye of Gunmar (formerly): At the end of "Something Rotten This Way Comes", Strickler gave Jim the last Triumbric Stone after he succeeded in keeping him safe. Jim later compressed the eye to complete the Triumbric Stone set. Helmet (formerly): After compressing the Eye of Gunmar, Jim unlocked his armor's helmet, which helped protect him from the effects of Gunmar's Decimaar Blade. Eye of Angor Rot (formerly): Jim acquired Angor's eye in "Angor Management" and later cut it (under Strickler's guidance) so he could counteract Angor's magics. Unknown Stone (briefly): Jim once tested out a stone used by Araknak the Agile so he could walk along vertical surfaces, though he had trouble keeping his focus. Aspectus Stone (briefly): Originally, Jim used it to test out its power to summon the strength of a thousand. However, he later realized that it was actually used to summon several doppelgängers of himself (each with one aspect of his personality). He initially had no control over his clones, but was able to reabsorb them back into the Aspectus Stone with his sword. Excalibur Hilt Stone: With the stone originated from Excalibur's hilt, Jim tasked Stuart to carve the stone and place it into his amulet to give it power again. Time Stone: Affected by the death of his best friend, Jim breaks open the Krohnisfere and releases the time stone inside. With it, he uses it to travel back in time to the morning he found the amulet with his full memories intact. Daylight Stone/Map to Merlin's Tomb (formerly): As discovered by Claire in "Parental Guidance", Merlin placed a map within the Daylight Stone, which was the very power source of the amulet. This map led to Merlin's Tomb, just in case his chosen champion had to venture to his cave and retrieve him from his slumber. However, in order to use the map, the Trollhunter had to destroy the amulet and use the stone if they came across an ancient Gyre underneath Aysa-Thoon. Bike: Jim's bike is one of his primary form of transportation as his main way of getting to and from school. Jim uses the bike to escape from foes, including Bular and the Stalkling. Even after he receives his own Vespa on his 16th birthday from Blinky, he still uses his bike on some occasions, likely for practical reasons. Vespa 150 G.S. (formerly): Jim's Vespa 150 G.S. was a birthday gift from Blinky and Jim's most desired birthday present. The scooter became Jim's second primary form of transportation and seats two, with Toby Domzalski and Claire Nuñez being its most common passengers. However, Merlin later dismantled Jim's Vespa (to his great dismay) and used its parts to create suits of armor for Claire and Toby. Horngazel: Jim always carries his own horngazel in case he ever needs to visit Heartstone Trollmarket to train and/or meet for trollhunting missions. Gaggletack: Jim usually brings a gaggletack so he can reveal any changeling spies walking among him in Arcadia. He once used this to expose NotEnrique as a changeling who took Enrique's place. Grit-Shaka (briefly): In "Young Atlas", Draal gave Jim a Grit-Shaka to help remove his anxiety about the kissing scene for Romeo and Juliet. However, due to his human physiology, the totem affected Jim greatly as it made him more reckless, arrogant, and without impulse control. Without his common sense, he confronted Bular, only to have his Grit-Shaka crushed by him. Apparently, when Jim once exclaimed "Where am I?" after having his totem smashed, he was unaware of his actions while being under the Grit-Shaka's influence. Kairosect (briefly): In "It's About Time", after Blinky wasted two shots, Jim used the last one to finish his Spanish exam, sabotage Steve's book-stacking Spring Fling challenge, save Blinky and return him to Trollmarket, help Bagdwella with her gnome infestation, find Strickler and take the Inferna Copula from him, and reclaim the Killstone from Angor. Inferna Copula (briefly): By using the Kairosect, Jim managed to steal the ring which controlled Angor Rot from Strickler without him knowing and without harming him (due to the binding spell). Jim briefly used the ring to locate Angor's whereabouts and reclaim the Killstone from him. When the Kairosect's effects wore off, Jim attempted to wear the ring to protect himself if Angor double-crossed their deal, but was blasted off before he could do so. As Jim tried to grab the ring, Angor destroyed it with the Sword of Daylight, along with his own soul. Grave Sand (briefly): In "Bad Coffee", during his training with Strickler and Nomura, they gave him some Grave Sand to help him hone his feral instincts and become more aggressive in a fight. Blinky intervened and emotionally connected with Jim before he went ballistic, though the sand permanently altered/damaged Jim's vocal cords as a result. Strickler then gave Jim the entire container of Grave Sand just in case Gunmar decided to strike. Against common sense, Jim brought the can to school and accidentally switched cans for the teacher's coffee. When the teachers (plus Strickler) were infected by the Grave Sand, Jim, Toby, Eli, and Steve managed to emotionally connect with them and free them from their feral-states. Cimmerian Fruit (briefly): During their time in the Darklands Jail, Nomura handed Jim a cimmerian fruit for his next confrontation with Gunmar's monsters (due to his weakening armor). Jim used the fruit's unbearable scent to disorient a Nyarlagroth enough to kill it off. Warhammer (briefly): In "The Oath", Jim borrowed Toby's Warhammer to smash his amulet and retrieve the map from inside the amulet, which they used to find Merlin's Tomb. Staff of Avalon (briefly): Though he couldn't activate it, Jim used Merlin's staff in his spar against Angor, until Gunmar took it from him. Parlok Spear (briefly): While facing off a savage general AAARRRGGHH!!! in Dwoza, Jim used a Parlok Spear to jump around and evade his future friend, mostly just to mess around with him, until he used it to fling a barrel onto the soon-to-be former Gumm-Gumm's head. Gumm-Gumm Sword (briefly): During the Battle of Killahead Bridge, Jim “borrowed” one of the killed Gumm-Gumm's swords to engage in combat since he couldn't summon his own weapons (due to the onyx shard lodged in his chest and blocking his amulet's magic). He quickly abandoned this right after Deya sucked Gunmar and his army into the Killahead Bridge. Serrator (briefly): In Rise of the Titans, Jim used a serrator as his temporary weapon. He used it to fight against Bellroc during their subway fight in Metro City, but lost it and it was destroyed by a moving car.

Relationships

Patrons Merlin Gunmar is free, Trollmarket is in peril, and of all creatures in our worlds, I chose you. Now... show them why. Merlin to Jim

Technically speaking, Merlin is, in fact, Jim's patron as he is his chosen champion, like his predecessors before him.

Jim first meets the wizard who created his amulet (albeit as a spirit) in "Unbecoming" when Merlin transported the boy to an alternate reality where Jim was never chosen. This was to show Jim what would've happened and his amulet does not make mistakes. He even tells him that the trolls needed him, now more than ever with Gunmar freed and Trollmarket on the verge of a hostile takeover.

By Part Three, Jim had an awkward first impression when he finally meets Merlin in person. When Jim learns that his mother was captured by the Gumm-Gumms along with Strickler, Merlin prevents him from finding them, much to Jim's disbelief. He becomes convinced that Merlin only wants his magic back and begins to fight back against Merlin, only to be easily outmatched by the wizard himself while they had a tense argument. Merlin tensely tells Jim that his humanity and Eclipse Blade will not be enough to end the Gumm-Gumm War, unless he becomes something more than human. Merlin creates a potion that will transform Jim into a human-troll hybrid, but he warns that the changes will be permanent, and he leaves Jim with a choice to either remain human or forever become a "true" Trollhunter, leaving his old life behind.

After sealing away Morgana for good, Merlin (with his magic restored) thanks to Jim and his friends for their bravery and helps lead the trolls to a new Heartstone in New Jersey. Also, during "For the Glory of Merlin", Merlin did show an ounce of sympathy for Jim when he saw him mourning over Draal's death.

After Jim was struck in the amulet by one of the Green Knight's Onyx Shards, Merlin did everything he could to slow the shard's process of digging into Jim's chest and inevitably reach his heart, but didn't know of a way to remove the shard. After Jim, Claire, Steve, and Douxie returned from their inadvertent time-travel, Jim forced the shard entirely into his heart, transforming completely into troll, albeit a monstrous one that fell under the control of the Green Knight. As a result, Merlin deemed Jim a lost cause and basically refused any idea of trying to save him.

It is unknown how Jim felt when he learns of Merlin's demise after regaining his humanity, but most likely neither saddened nor delighted, given the wizard's past eccentric behavior towards him before.

Romances Claire Nuñez You mean we are gonna find him... together. Claire to Jim

Homecoming- Jim and claire kiss Jlaire kiss At first, Jim merely crushed on Claire from afar and she tolerated him at best until he attempted to won her with quickly learned Spanish and she invited him to audition for the school play, Romeo, and Juliet. Although he didn't actually want to act, he auditioned to convince Strickler that the armor was for the play. However, due to his tardiness and absence from several rehearsals, their relationship begins to turn sour. After a last-minute attempt to win back her trust, he agrees to babysit her little brother, Enrique, who is actually a changeling, who they dubbed as NotEnrique. After causing a mess in her house, she says she hopes to never see him again. Before he and Draal have their to-the-death rematch, he leaves her a letter, confessing all of his feelings and what has been going on with him. She forgives him, thinking it's metaphorical, but then grows suspicious and, after NotEnrique endangers her and she learns the truth of his new double life situation, the two grow closer as she joins in on the adventures, and prepare to go to the Spring Fling together. They ultimately decide to skip the Fling, and instead dance near a cliff overlooking the city, almost kissing.

During Part Two, Claire is determined to rescue Jim from the Darklands after he saved Enrique first. After everyone manages to get him back, Claire hugs him saying that she misses him and they both share a kiss. After an unconventional barbecue at her parents' house, Claire finally calls Jim her boyfriend and says that she does not care that her parents disapprove of it, and giving him a sweet kiss on the cheek officially becoming a couple.

In Part Three, their relationship starts to grow when Jim becomes jealous when Douxie starts flirting with Claire. He also does everything in his power to free Claire from Morgana’s control. After turning into a half-troll permanently, Jim becomes extremely depressed over what he has lost with her, uncertain as to what kind of life they could possibly have together. However, Claire proves her eternal love for him by staying by his side, hugging him when he is believed to be dead, and even deciding to go live with Jim in the new Trollmarket.

During Wizards, their relationship has only gotten stronger over the course of their travels. Claire is very protective of Jim in the 12th century where being a troll is punishable by death. The two are separated for a brief time, but when they are reunited, he is given news that traveling back to the present will cause the shard on his chest get closer to his heart and corrupt him. Jim does not wish to tell Claire this and instead spend what time they have left together. After the battle is over, he tells the truth, which devastates her immensely and she vows to find a way to save him.

After pushing the shard in his chest further in, Jim is transformed into a troll to save Claire and their friends. As Claire said, she refuses to give up on Jim despite attacking her multiple times. After finally getting through to him, Jim saves Claire, but is immediately turned to stone. Claire is left crying over his body before the rocks crumble into pieces and he emerges out, human once more. They are both overjoyed and the two gave each other a heartwarming embrace, ready to relive their lives together in Arcadia.

In Rise of the Titans, the two remain strong and trust each other when they split up with their different parties to stop the titans. After defeating the titans and losing a lot of their closest allies (including Toby), Jim decides to use the Time Stone to back and make events unfold differently. Claire is saddened that she'll likely forget everything she and Jim went through together, but he promises that he'll make sure they get back together, giving Jim one last kiss for good luck. After Jim goes back in time, he signs himself up for the school play again for the promise he made Claire.

Family Barbara Lake I want you to know something. Even before you found this amulet – way before all this – you were always my hero. My beautiful boy... Barbara to Jim

Protect Jim with his mother, Barbara After Jim's father left them around his 5th birthday, he and Barbara vowed to always take care of each other. To the present day, Jim has continued to care for his mother, kissing her goodnight, nurturing her when she was sick, as well as doing all of the cooking and cleaning in the house, even though it was Barbara who is supposed to care for Jim, making Jim somewhat of a mama's boy.

When Jim became the Trollhunter and met his new trolls friends, he was determined to keep it all a secret from her just to keep her from worrying. Unfortunately, she got worried either way. After Jim gets more involved in his occupation as a Trollhunter, his mom grows more worried, as he's begun to return home at late hours, argue, and keep secrets from her. He expresses discomfort that he must do such things but continues to and heatedly tells her that he doesn't want her to see Mr. Strickler again after she invited him over for dinner, even though she's fond of him.

Their relationship continued to strain and only seemed to worsen (though somewhat repaired thanks to a temporarily humanized Blinky) until, while waiting for Angor Rot to enter his house, she comes home early. Unable to make up a lie in time, he quickly reveals the truth to her and after Mr. Stickler is injured, causing Barbara to receive the same injury due to their intertwined fates, he brings her to Trollmarket to heal her. Vendel tells him the only way for Barbara to heal properly is to unbind her from Mr. Strickler, however, she would also lose her memories in the process. Barbara begs several times for Jim to remind her of his life as a Trollhunter when she comes to and promises that he will. Once she loses consciousness, he rushes her to a hospital in the human world so she can heal properly. After she reawakens, she asks Jim what happened. Happily (because she wouldn't believe him), he lies and tells her that she was in an accident, breaking his promise.

In Part Three, Barbara’s memory returns and she confronts Jim for breaking his promise and worrying too much about her. She explains to him that parents have to protect their kids and be concerned, regardless of what they do. Jim finally truly realizes what has done wrong and agrees. After Jim is permanently transformed into a troll, Barbara is just as shocked and saddened by this as Jim himself. When Jim runs away after realizing all the disadvantages to his new form, she expresses her undying love for him and that he will always be himself, regardless of what he has become. When Jim leaves Arcadia with Claire and the trolls to find a new home, Barbara expresses reluctance to let Jim leave town, but he promises to contact her all the time. The two then share a tearful goodbye.

James Lake Sr. As implied by Jim himself, he had a strong bond with his father when he was young.

However, he was hurt and betrayed when his father left him and his mother to look after themselves on his own birthday. Jim even hates most his birthdays because they always remind him of when his father disappeared on him and his mother.

Other than that, Jim doesn't care about his father, which he affirms to Blinky in "Blinky's Day Out".

Friends/Allies Toby Domzalski Sure, I did. You had no problem sneaking into the Darklands when it was to save Claire’s brother, but now that Kanjigar says you’ve got to face Gunmar, you’re having nightmares about him and are freaking out that you’re way out of your league. I can multi-task, Jimbo! Toby to Jim

7 Toby and Jim pose Toby Domzalski is Jim's best friend and "sidekick". Since kindergarten, the two have remained inseparable and close like brothers. He is always by Jim's side no matter what during their battles. It is noted that Toby very possessive of Jim and likes to be the only one at his side. In the episode "Airheads", he is seen arguing and competing with Claire Nuñez for the position of Jim's sidekick. Claire even declares Jim and Toby the "dynamic duo".

At the end of the series when Jim leaves Arcadia to find a new heartstone in New Jersey, he gives Toby his job as the city’s protector and promises to return someday and contact him whenever he can.

In Rise of the Titans, when Toby sacrificed himself to help Jim defeat Bellroc and save the world, Jim was utterly devastated at the loss of his childhood friend. Toby's death was Jim's motivation to travel back in time and set things right, completely filled with joy when he reunites with Toby in the new timeline. After realizing that Toby is a worthy hero and not just his "moral support", Jim trusted his best friend enough to find the amulet in the canal so he can assume the role of Trollhunter.

Blinky Galadrigal When I gaze upon you, do you know what I see? I see a champion, a friend... a son. A magnificent son. Blinky to Jim

Jimhunters A Magnificent Son Blinky comforting Troll Jim Blinky is Jim's mentor and is very loyal to him. He often helps Jim with problems that he faces and looks up remedies to help him fight the rogue trolls and goblins. In "Recipe for Disaster", it is implied by Stricklander during a fight with Jim that Jim sees Blinky as his surrogate father, and the two have shared multiple bonding moments that could hint at this dynamic throughout the show, one of them being the two of them building a Vespa bike together that Jim had received from Blinky during Jim's 16th birthday. This father-son relationship is finally established in "Jimhunters" when Blinky comforts Jim after he becomes saddened by his new form.

In “Blinky's Day Out”, Jim says he finally has the chance to mentor Blinky, and looks out for him. He is also a great friend to Blinky, one of the few that doesn‘t make fun of him for his knowledge.

In Wizards, after Jim gets lost in time, he is completely astounded to learn that Blinky was not the same heroic and fatherly mentor he knows in his present, but rather a stubborn and ignorant coward, like most trolls.

AAARRRGGHH!!! Like with Blinky, Jim values AAARRRGGHH!!! as not just one of his mentors, but as a friend. Jim was completely devastated when AAARRRGGHH!!! sacrifices himself to save Toby. In fact, Jim admits that AAARRRGGHH!!!'s death was the main reason why he went into the Darklands alone, as he didn't want his friends suffering the same fate. Luckily, Jim was shocked and thrilled to learn from Toby and Claire that AAARRRGGHH!!! was alive and well.

Draal the Deadly Fleshbag... Maybe you'll make a good Trollhunter after all. When that time comes, I will be proud to fight by your side. Draal to Jim

Jim and Draal reunited When first entering Heartstone Trollmarket, Draal goes to Jim, demanding that he prove he's the new Trollhunter. After donning the armor, Jim grows frightened of Draal once he learns that Draal is Kanjigar's son, the last Trollhunter, and believes he himself is the amulet's rightful heir. Saying it's "training", he challenges Jim in the Hero's Forge with Vendel watching. Jim quickly loses and this causes him to question whether the amulet chose correctly. After his doubt settles and with his confidence restored, he asks Draal for a rematch. However, he grows fearful again once it's explained that a rematch would be to-the-death. In their match, Jim, using the knowledge he gained from reading A Brief Recapitulation of Troll Lore, wins the match, but ignoring the chants of the other trolls, doesn't kill Draal and instead spares his life.

Draal, exiled out of shame, takes refuge in Jim's basement and vows to protect his house. He trains Jim how to properly fight and continues to live with Jim for the remainder of Part One, even after he is welcomed back into Trollmarket. The two form somewhat of a bond and always trust each other, quite similar to Toby and AAARRRGGHH!!!'s relationship. Jim even admits that he sees Draal more than just his protector, but as one of his closest friends, so he most likely saw Draal as a brother he never had.

In Part Two, Draal was taken over by Gunmar, and Jim was reluctant to fight him since they're friends. Jim vowed to find a way to restore Draal’s free will.

In Part Three, when Draal was freed from his brainwashing, he helped Jim find Merlin's staff and the two started to work together better than before. Sadly, when Angor Rot and Gunmar arrived, a heated and violent battle occurred and Angor did away with Draal, who sacrificed himself trying to protect his friend.

Jim was completely heartbroken since this was the first everlasting death of a close friend he had to deal with in his life. In the end, Jim avenged Draal when he declared his victory over Gunmar to him.

Eli Pepperjack Ever since Jim stood up for Eli when Steve shoved him into a locker, Eli has been deeply devoted to Jim and was genuinely shocked when he and Steve assumed he was evil. When Steve and Eli helped Jim and the others help the trolls escape Gunmar, Eli said that he has a lot of questions for Jim. It is also shown that Eli believes Jim to be the best person in the world and idolizes him.

However, in Part Two, he begins to have second thoughts when he and Steve start investigating some of the strange occurrences happening in Arcadia, in which Jim is connected. The duo initially believes that Jim is evil and planning to take over the town and try to stop him, but are soon proven that whatever Jim is involved in, he's not an enemy. Eventually, when Steve and Eli reveal that they knew about his life as a Trollhunter, Eli says that "[Jim] has a lot of explaining to do." It is presumed that they have a mutual friendship by then.

It's unknown if Eli's aware of Jim's departure and transformation into a troll. However, Eli seems aware that Jim is unavailable since he talks to Toby about aliens in Arcadia instead.

Steve Palchuk Ever since Jim knocked Steve’s tooth out, Steve had spent a majority of the series trying to get revenge on Jim, either replacing him as Romeo for the school play, make him look bad, just to gloat at him, etc.

In Part Two, when Jim entered the Darklands and the other Trollhunters told everyone he had a terminal illness, Steve knew it was a trick and decided to find out about what was going on. As Eli and Steve teamed up to investigate, they assumed that Jim was part of an evil supernatural plot, but Steve finds out the truth himself that, whatever secret Jim is keeping, he's a protector of Arcadia.

After Jim figures out that Steve has seen him in his armor, Steve has gained respect for Jim and gotten over his pathetic vendetta against him.

Aja Tarron You don't understand. My mama and papa did get hurt, and now bounty hunters are after us. This is why I am training to be a warrior. This is why I cannot be patient... I cannot lose anyone ever again. Aja to Jim

D'AV Snapshot (144) The Warrior Princess and the Trollhunter Originally, Jim and Aja first meet during a science fair in "D'aja Vu" while facing a trickster troll named Porgon, who stole a piece of Akiridion tech so he could combine it with his troll magic to restart time. Aja and Jim are the only ones who remember the time loop (due to Jim's magic amulet and Aja's serrator shield protecting their memories) and they team up to solve this problem. At first, Jim was surprised to learn that Aja is an Akiridion, but says it wasn't that strange to him, considering his experiences with magic and trolls.

Despite knowing each other for a short time, Jim and Aja have grown close and often discuss the importance of being a warrior, as Jim explains to the queen-in-waiting that it takes patience. When Aja expresses why she can't be patient, as she feels unable to protect the people she cares about and wants to prevent any more tragedies, Jim was understanding since he knows the feeling quite well himself. When they succeed in taking the battery away from Porgon, they are caught in public with their friends. They decide to use their tech and magic to go back in time and prevent Porgon from taking it (costing their memories of each other as well). Jim and Aja were both saddened by this but promised that fate would unite them again one day.

During "Lightning in a Bottle/In Good Hands", Jim takes Aja and Krel on a tour of Arcadia (while Aja tries to take Jim's amulet when she mistakes it for her missing serrator). She later helps him capture lightning in a bottle and says goodbye to him and his friends. During the Eternal Night War, Aja immediately recognizes Jim, despite his new troll form, but they don't interact (merely glancing at each other).

In the penultimate 3Below episode "Race to Trollmarket", Aja and Krel briefly greet Jim. Like before, he didn't seem at all surprised to know that Aja and her brother are aliens.

Krel Tarron Unlike Aja, Jim has little interactions with her little brother, Krel, albeit it's clear that they're good friends.

Douxie Casperan Despite having little-to-no interactions during Part Three, it has become clear that Jim has never liked Douxie the moment they first met, especially after he catches him flirting with his girlfriend, Claire, although they both likely seemed unaware of Jim's jealousy. He was also quite angry that Douxie was their waiter during their double date with Toby and Darci in "So I'm Dating a Sorceress". Later, Jim was pleased that Claire (possessed by Morgana) ordered Douxie to leave them be, making their potential feelings for each other go out the window more.

During the events of Wizards, Jim is quite confused to see Douxie in the 12th century before Claire explains he's Merlin's apprentice. Despite being jealous of him back in Arcadia, it is mentioned that Jim would always tip Douxie at the cafe he works at. Douxie is shown to not only support Jim and Claire's relationship, but would go at great length to protect the two as he sees them both as great friends and vice versa.

Strickler Atlas, too, carried the weight of the world on his shoulders, and I'm concerned, like him, you're overextending yourself. Strickler to Jim

At first, Jim favored Mr. Strickler and looked up to him as a sort of father figure, which he admits to Claire and Toby in "Just Add Water". Even before he became the Trollhunter, Strickler is aware that Jim is overextending himself from taking care of his mother and struggling in class. As such, he calls him "Young Atlas." Jim even tries to convince himself that Strickler is not a changeling as he didn't want to accept the fact until Bular calls him "Young Altas," a nickname only Strickler calls him as. After he learns that Strickler is a changeling, Jim instantly felt betrayed by his favorite teacher. His hatred for Strickler continuously grows when he witnesses him going on dates with his mother and even placed a binding spell on him and his mother (whatever harm comes to Strickler, will happen to Barbara).

However, when Angor Rot loses his soul and is in pursuit to kill Strickler, he begs Jim to protect him, though he was instantly but understandably reluctant. After Jim saves his and his mother's lives by undoing the binding spell, Jim starts to believe that Strickler was beginning to change his ways and somewhat earns his trust again, though he admits that he still holds mixed feelings towards him. After Gunmar takes over Trollmarket, Strickler returns to Arcadia with Nomura so they could help train Jim.

After Jim permanently becomes a troll hybrid, Strickler shows pity for him and his mother, saying it's confusing to be human and troll, as he never had to deal with both at once since he had to ability to choose one or the other. When Jim says goodbye to his mother, Strickler wishes him luck on his journey and decides to stay in Arcadia to take care of his mother for him.

In Rise of the Titans, Jim was delighted that Strickler proposed to his mother. Jim was honored to be his best man and accepting him as his new stepfather. However, after he sacrificed himself to stop the Ice Titan, Jim was devastated, especially since his death was in vain. After traveling back in time, Jim allowed the pre-developed Strickler to see his mom and give him another chance.

Nomura At first, Jim and Nomura saw each other as enemies on sight with Nomura mocking him as a fake.

However, after meeting each other in the Darklands under the captivity of Gunmar, they begin to form a friendship and even help each other escape the Darklands together. After which, Nomura thanks Jim for giving her hope and believing in friends. After Gunmar takes over Trollmarket, she returns to Arcadia with Strickler to help train Jim and later participates in the Eternal Night War with the Trollhunters.

Enemies Gunmar To wound me, one needs to be able to touch me, child. Tell me, Trollhunter, what should a father do to the one who MURDERED HIS ONLY SON?! Gunmar meeting Jim in person for the first time

Gunmar is Jim's archenemy. After he hears the death of his son at the hands of the first human Trollhunter, Gunmar instantly came to hate Jim, wanting to replace Bular with Jim by enslaving him or killing him. When the two finally meet each other in person, Gunmar immediately saw him as a weak and incompetent human, but later learns that he's one of the few humans that is not to be underestimated after witnessing his fighting skills.

Jim finds Gunmar deplorable, especially after he corrupts Jim's surrogate brother, Draal (using his Decimaar Blade) and forces Draal to attack Jim. Ever since, Jim has come to despise Gunmar to the greatest extent.

In the Eternal Night War, Jim (avenging his surrogate brother, Draal) finally kills Gunmar and ends his century-year-old reign once and far all.

Bular The amulet should never have chosen a human. You're too soft, easy to kill! Bular to Jim as he tries to kill him

Initially, Bular and Jim were enemies the moment they first confronted each other. Bular had every intention of killing Jim in cold blood, even though he was aware that he couldn't free his father from Killahead without the Trollhunter, though he just says that "there will always be other Trollhunters".

Of course, Bular underestimating Jim as a weak, pathetic human is what lead to his downfall.

Angor Rot (formerly) Jim first noticed Angor in "Mudslinging" when he sends a Golem out to test his abilities. Later on, he mets the assassin in person after he traps him in stasis and paints his mark on his face, taking his command over Daylight. Despite trying to kill him and stealing the Killstone from him (all under Strickler's orders), Angor manages to propose Jim a deal that if he can steal the Inferna Copula from the changeling, he will sever his mother's connection with him. When Jim steals the ring, Angor unintentionally destroys it, along with his soul, but instead of blaming himself, he blames it on Jim.

As he goes on a killing spree to kill Jim and his loved ones, he kills AAARRRGGHH!!!, telling Jim that the reason he's still alive is because his friends always try to save him. Angor left a huge impact on Jim, which made him venture into the Darklands alone so his friends wouldn't get hurt like what happened with AAARRRGGHH!!!.

After Angor is resurrected, he vowed to kill Jim for killing him previously and stealing his eye. However, Jim then reminds Angor of the hero he used to be, which caused him to see the error of his ways. Angor and Jim try to kill Morgana together, only to fail due to her immortality.

Dictatious Galadrigal (formerly) Jim first learned about his mentor's supposedly late brother, Dictatious, in "Party Monster".

However, Jim is clearly shocked when he learns that Blinky's brother is not only alive and living in the Darklands, but was actually working for Gunmar as his advisor (and by his own will nonetheless). When Dictatious learned that Jim's friends were trying to save him, he told Gunmar that the boy must live, but it was only because they wanted to escape as well.

When Dictatious reforms to warn the Trollhunters that Gunmar is on route to resurrect Angor Rot, Jim was understandably reluctant to trust him, due to everything Dictatious put him through during his captivity in the Darklands, but later realized that he was telling the truth. Jim and Dictatious have little-to-no interactions after that.

Queen Usurna Jim first met the queen of the Krubera in "Wingmen". Usurna was initially skeptical about the human Trollhunter, even after she heard rumors about him.

In Part Two, it is discovered that Usurna absolutely despised Jim, due to his status as a human, and saw him as a threat to Gunmar's takeover (as well as her own). After he escapes the Darklands, Usurna convinces the tribunal to blame the Trollhunter for releasing Gunmar and she gives him an unfair trial to exile him to the Deep.

Jim has little interaction with the evil queen afterwards, but he is completely aware of her true nature, especially after she frames him for Vendel's murder (which she committed), much to his disbelief. He probably also believed that Usurna was responsible for Gunmar's release all along.

Morgana Merlin's champion. I have so looked forward to meeting you... and then killing you. Morgana to Jim during their confrontation

At first, Jim was initially unaware of Morgana's existence, until the seemingly vile, bloodthirsty sorceress possesses Claire and tries to kill him.

During their confrontation face-to-face, Jim argues why she hated him on sight, even though he has done nothing to her. To which, Morgana spitefully reveals that Merlin took her left hand so he could make the Amulet of Daylight and mercilessly injures him with every strength of her magic, even trying to give him a slow and painful death. She also mocks Jim's abilities since his sword was built to kill trolls, and she could not be killed. When she unleashes her magic to kill his friends, Jim quickly steps in and takes the full blast, which almost kills him if not for his new half-troll form.

In Wizards, Jim is completely astounded when he meets Morgana's past self... and she's not the same monstrous witch who tried to kill him and his friends, as well as just endanger all of Arcadia with the Eternal Night. She genuinely did care about trolls and actually wanted to help them live in peace without fear of prejudice.

King Arthur At first, Jim thought of King Arthur to be a king of great legends while he fought against Gunmar.

However, Jim later discovers that Arthur was at war with more than just the Gumm-Gumms; he raided, imprisoned, and executed innocent trolls and other magical creature he could get his hands on. After learning the truth about Arthur's prejudice, Jim loses a lot of respect for the late king, especially when he injures/corrupts him with an onyx shard and turns him against his friends.

It can be argued that Jim and Arthur are foils to one another, as Arthur is the example of the kind of man Jim could've become if he allowed his own emotions to overtake him. While Jim moved on from his own losses and still cared about the family he still has (magical and normal alike), Arthur, on the other hand, had never gotten over his loss of Guinevere and kept blaming his only sister, Morgana, for his wife's death (even seeing her as an abomination after her magic powers manifested). Also, Jim cared about magical beings and was chosen to protect both them from evil creatures, but Arthur despised magic, even when he was a boy (in fact, Guinevere's death pushed him into his extreme, genocidal crusade against them). Finally, while Jim was willing to sacrifice himself to save his friends from Morgana (and later Arthur), Arthur indirectly led to Morgana's death when he sliced off her left hand with Excalibur.

Arcane Order Jim has clearly heard of the Arcane Order before, but has little to no interactions with Bellroc and Skrael. However, it is clear that Jim finds them deplorable after they sent their enforcer, the Green Knight, to attack him and his friends, and even trap his soul in the Shadow Realm by his corruption.

By the time he regains his humanity, Jim's aware that the Order is still at large with the Genesis Seals and understands how much of a threat the demigods pose to Arcadia and the entire universe if they find their defected member, Nari.

Later, Jim battles against the Order in many confrontations, especially Bellroc. Bellroc also taunted Jim about the loss of his amulet and treated him like a helpless little boy, and eventually Jim succeeded in stabbing Bellroc with Excalibur.

Jim: "Tobes, it's me! You're never going to believe what happened last night." Toby: "Yeah, I'm kind of in the middle of something, Jimbo." Jim: "I am freaking out here! Seriously freaking. I need to talk to someone." Toby: "Chillax. What's going on?" Jim: "Okay, last night, I heard something in my basement. I thought it was raccoons, but then—"

"Okay, I don't really know how to say this, but last night something incredible happened. Actually, unbelievable. Completely unbelievable. As in, you won't believe me, but I'm telling you it's true. I promise you it's true—"

Jim: "Uh... Okay. Last night, two, um, things, showed up at my house." Strickler: "Things?" Jim: "You know, things. Guys. But really wierd. One had these eyes, and the other one was huge and hairy. And they said they they were tro..." Strickler: "Tro...?" Jim: "Tr... trainers! Trainers, who wanted to train me in... ch... uh... chess."

"For the glory of Merlin... Daylight is mine to command." [1]

"Okay, remember that thing we found the other day? In the canals. The thing when the gem and stuff? It works. It works like crazy!"

"Really? I show you a glowing sword and a suit of armor that can only be magic, and that's how you respond?"

Blinky: "So, Master Jim, are you ready? We should begin your training immediately." Jim: "Uh, it's a school night." Blinky: "I assure you, the relevance escapes me." Jim: "I'm 15. I have to stay home and, uh, study and stuff. Do homework? I can't be out, y'know, trollhunting." Blinky: "Because?" Jim: "Well, the whole 'getting killed by a vicious troll named Bular' might be a dealbreaker." Blinky: "Dealbreaker?" Jim: "I don't wanna die."

Blinky: "You cannot refuse it. You cannot give it back. It is yours until you die." Jim: "And I would like to get a little further past puberty before that happens."

"Uh... 'Destiny... Destiny is... a gift. Some go their entire lives living an existance of quiet desperation, never learning the truth that what feels as though a burden pushing down upon our shoulders... is actually the sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor. That to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means to be a hero. Don't think. Become.'"

"'For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command.' Seriously, it's mine to command. I'm commanding here!" [2]

"Yeah, after the audition, I had to run, but— Wait a minute, I got the part?"

"Yeah, but-bu-but-but now I am recharged and ready to go! 'To be or not to be.' Right?" [chuckles] "Right? Am I— Am I right?"

"Do you know when I was old enough to ask about Dad, remember what you told me? You said 'We just have to take care of each other.' That's all I'm doing, Mom."

"So, basically, you're saying that one third of being a Trollhunter is kicking someone in the nards."

Jim: "Wait, wait, what do I do?" Blinky: "Hit him as hard as you can." Jim: "No, no. I mean, what do I do? I've never hit anyone." Blinky: "Ever?" Jim: "Yeah, I've never gotten into a fight." Blinky: "In your entire life?" Jim: "Well, all 15 years of it, yeah." Blinky: "You fought Bular, however briefly, and you were glorious. Your blade-work was impressive." Jim: "Those were just my chef skills!"

"He might be right. What the heck was I thinking? An amulet can't choose anyone. It's an amulet."

"Okay. Well, then you were definitely not paying attention back there. Shame was about the only thing that transpired. Shame... and realization. I don't know if Draal should be the Trollhunter or not, and I don't care. I just know that I am not."

Blinky: "Master Jim, despite whatever doubts you may have about the Amulet's choice, it is now bonded to you. This is a mantle you cannot refuse." Jim: "Watch me."

"Is that all you got?"

"Wish granted, loudmouth. Rematch. You. Me. Name the time, name the place, and I'll be there." [3]

"Is this what you wanted? To hurt everyone? To ruin my life? Why did you choose me, huh? I wish I never picked you up in the first place. (...) You made a mistake."

"The canals. The Amulet. A second chance! Tobes, go the long way. I-I don't wanna take the canals today."

Jim: "I can't believe it. Everything's the same... but not the same!" Toby: "What's going on with you, dude? You've been acting, like, super weird all morning." Jim: "I don't even know how to explain, Tobes. Let's meet up with Claire and talk." Toby: "Claire? Like 'secret crush' Claire? You taking crazy pills? She barely knows you exist."

"Fate changed, okay? And now I need to find the Trollhunter. They're building Killahead Bridge!"

Jim: "I know, Stricker. I know your secret. I know everything." Strickler: "And what would 'everything' entail?" Jim: "The Killahead Bridge." Strickler: "Killa-what?" Jim: "I know you're a changeling."

"I know you want to release Gunmar so changelings will gain the respect they deserve, but you're wrong. It doesn't happen that way. You'll always be an impure to him."

"I know it because I was the Trollhunter. I've lived this, but I messed everything up. And now, I'm stuck in the past, and believe it or not, you and I work together to put an end to Gunmar once and for all."

"The Amulet. No! No, no, no, no! For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command. For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command. For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command. Come on! For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command. Please work! Please work! For the glory of Merlin, please! For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command! (...) Please. Please." [sobbing] "Please! Please! Unkar! Anyone! I can't do this alone!"

"I'm the Trollhunter! I'm the Trollhunter. I am the Trollhunter. I know I'm the Trollhunter. (...) I'm the Trollhunter... Amulet or not."

Unkar: "If you walk out that door, you will die." Jim: "What choice do I have?" Unkar: "Oh, there's always a choice. Run away, save your skin!" Jim: "That's not who I am. Out there, they need a Trollhunter, and a Trollhunter fights till the end."

"No. I'm keeping my Amulet."

"Yeah, Tobes. Never been more sure. I'll face whatever comes my way." [4]

"I show you a glowing sword and a suit of armor that can only be magic, and that's how you respond?"

"I've been incanting the crap out of it, and it's still not working!"

"For the glory of Merlin, WHERE ARE YOU??!!"

"For the doom of Gunmar, Eclipse is mine to command!"

"I'm sorry, but I have to finish the fight... alone."

"I really pictured that going more smoothly."

"You like rocks? Rock this!"

"If I'm going to kill Gunmar, I need to fight like Gunmar!"

"I thought you said I had a choice!"

"I-I'm fine... AH! What's wrong with my hand?!"

"I just wanted to have a normal dinner!"

"Don't you get it?! I'm not Jim anymore! Go away!"

"For Draal!"

"In the darkest hour, I burn brightest!"

"Daylight!"

"Hey... the last line... that was mine."

"We sure found that adventure. Right, Tobes?"

3Below "Just once, I'd like a troll to visit Arcadia for another reason than destroying the world."

Jim: "Huh, that's weird. I've never done that before." Aja: "You've never bumped into someone before?" Jim: "Not today."

"Okay, don't freak out. My name is Jim Lake, and everyone's life here is in danger. But I think you can help me."

"Big stone guy with the anger issues. That's a troll."

"I've been through today thirty times."

"Look, we're going to time loop again. I need you to trust me. Tell me what Akiridion tech is."

"Porgon doesn't go down easy. This isn't a two-person— one-person-one-alien— Whatever! —job. We need backup."

Jim: "Yes, but we have to be careful. The second Porgon feels threatened, he'll send us back to this morning. Wait, where did Aja go?" Krel: "She left... right before you said we should be careful."

"You can't just rush off into battle like that. (...) You said you're training to be a warrior. But it takes patience."

"I once rushed into a place called the Darklands by myself. If my friends hadn't helped me, a lot of people would've gotten hurt."

"We can't defeat Porgon without separating him from the Dekyon Charger. If we attack right away, he'll panic and just restart the loop. We'll have to find a way to trick this Trickster troll."

"You've played your last trick, Porgon!" [5]

Wizards "Claire? What happened? What are we doing at a Renn faire?"

Arthur: "These beasts care not, especially not this spy of Gunmar's!" Jim: "Stop calling me a beast! W-Wait. Gunmar?"

"Actually, I'm half-fleshbag."

"He's at war with more than just the Gumm-Gumms."

"I'm trying to manifest a Sword of Daylight. He made it to save the trolls." [6]

"My friends were supposed to find us by now. Something must've happened. You guys need to get to safety."

"You'll see. We're not all bad. You just gotta give us a chance."

Callista: "Those fleshbags would have to be stupid to follow us now." Jim: "You don't know Steve."

"You know, where I'm from, humans and trolls get along."

"Prepare to have your mind blown. Look! People and trolls, working together. They don't have to fight."

Callista: "Oh! Who's the one with the baby hands? Must be the run of the litter." Jim: "He was tall for his age!" [7]

"Blink? Oh, I just had the craziest dream. (...) I was stuck in the past! And Steve had great hair and a goatee. Everything smelled bad, and— and Gunmar was still alive."

Jim: "Wait, you're not going to fight? But you have to! There's a war coming and you're in it!" Blinky: "You're a master strategist, the smartest troll I know!" Blinky: "Ha! The books are my brother's speciality." Jim: "No, listen! Gunmar's going to attack Killahead. You're supposed to help the humans fight!"

"But it's history! It has to happen! THat's what makes it history!"

"You can't keep your heads in the sand forever. Sooner or later, you'll have to pick a side." [8]

"Come on! Dwoza, stand up! Fight for what you believe in! Guys?"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Stop! You can't kill him! (...) I know he just tried to break, like, all my bones, but there's other ways." [9]

"Claire, that's... incredible! You teleported us across the planet just for a date!"

"Uh, since when did you become such an awesome wizard?"

Jim: "You know, I was chosen to be a hero, too, and no one liked it either. They called me 'Jim the Baby-Handed.'" Callista: "At least you had that. I'm nothing— no village, no family. I don't even have a real name." Jim: "I've seen you break out of Camelot, outrun a legion of knights, and saave a crazy time-traveling troll like me."<br.Callista: "I still think you're crazy, by the way. I'm afraid, Jim." Jim: "My friends taught me it's okay to be afraid, 'cause you can do anything, even make a name for yourself."

"Hope to see you on the battlefield. We need you, Trollhunter." [10]

"You're going to do great things, Deya. Oh, and when you're looking for a new Heartstone, skip New Jersey. Trust me, California has better weather."

"If we don't all go back right now, the future won't exist. And what kind of hero would I be if I sacrificed everyone else? Not to be ironic, but we're out of time."

Claire: "There has to be another way. This isn't fair!" Jim: "That seems to be a reoccuring thing with us. You sure you wanna keep dating me?" Claire: "I'd date you for a hundred lifetimes, Jim Lake." Jim: "Hey, we'll figure this out. We always find a way to save each other." [11]

"We need an edge. I'm sorry, Claire."

"Jim is gone. The Knight freed me."

Claire: "Please. You said we'd always find a way to save each other. I love you. We belong together." Beast Jim: "I... belong... here!" [12]

"A Trollhunter answers every call... I must protetct my friends... from Bular, Gunmar, the Green Knight." [13]

"No! My soul belongs to the king!"

Douxie: "Mordrax's miracles. It seems I've missed a lot." Jim: "Same, but glad to be back."

"But without the Amulet... am I still the Trollhunter?" [14]

Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans Jim: "My name is James Lake, Jr. It's not easy being the Trollhunter. It's even harder being the first human Trollhunter. Fortunately, I had my friends to help. Friends from Arcadia. And a little further away. Uh, when I said friends, I might have been exaggerating in some cases. Although we saved Arcadia and the world numerous times..." Blinky: The Trollhunter could not save himself. Tragically, Master Jim was felled by dark magic. The Trollhunter Amulet was destroyed. Malevolent wizards known as the Arcane Order saw to that. Then, must to everyone's surprise, one of the Arcane Order turned to the side of good." Jim: "And now the other two are on the hunt for her. You see, they wanna use something called the Genesis Seals to— Well, I don't know what the Seals do, exactly, but you gotta figure it's bad. The point is, the world has never been in greater danger, or needed the Trollhunter more. But without the Amulet, am I still the Trollhunter?"

"Nope. Now I hunt wizards."

Barbara: "Careful, honey. You have three bruised ribs. It must hurt like mad." Jim: "Oh. Not as much as a bruised ego does."

"I'm not... I'm not the Trollhunter anymore. I'm just some kid... who convinced himself we has a hero when all he was... was just lucky enough to find a magic amulet."

Strickler: "I would be honored, Jim, if you stood by my side... as my best man." Jim: "I was your student, your enemy, your friend, and now... best man. The honor would be all mine."

Claire: "So we live to fight another day." Jim: "Yeah, with three bruised ribs." Claire: "You're only human." Jim: "Now." Claire: "And that's enough for me."

"You have room for one more around that big table?"

Blinky: "Aha! Master Jim! By Gorgus, it is good to see you on your feet." Jim: "Barely, but I am happy to stand by your side, Blinky."

Stuart: "Ninth Configuration? Sounds like an ‘80s boy band." [chuckles lightly] "But she said 'Trollhunter.' Jim, you must know." Jim: "I don't. I'm not the Trollhunter anymore. remember?"

"For the good of all, Daylight is mine to command!"

"The Amulet failed. I failed."

"Stop! We're facing the end of the world. We can't argue with each other. And we can't play it safe. I've made mistakes, but the Amulet doesn't. It brought us all together for a reason, it chose me for a reason. I have to trust it. And I'm asking all of you to trust me."

Jim: "You said the stone in the new amulet was from Akiridion-5. (...) The Amulet came from Merlin. The stone needs to carry the same magic.

Jim: "Three Titans, three courses of action. Stuart and Krel, get me Excalibur." Stuart: "We shall get right on it." Jim: "Claire, you lead a team to find the Krohnisfere." Douxie: "And the rest of us?" Jim: "Amulet or no amulet, we do everything we can to take these Titans down."

Jim: "My mother is finally happy, but the world’s about to end. And I can’t do anything to stop it." Claire: "But we can." Jim: "What if I…? What if I never see you again?" Claire: "I will always be here…" [touches Jim's temple] "...and here." [touches Jim's heart]

"You're with me, Tobes. Always have been, always will be. And I could use some moral support."

"Man the cannons!"

Strickler: "Careful, Young Atlas. That's a lot of explosives." Jim: "That's the point..." [primes explosives] "...isn't it?"

Strickler: "You know, Jim... I once tried to kill you. I really did. And now, well... I've never felt so good about failing." Jim: "No. No! I should've played it safe like you said!" Strickler: "I was wrong, Young Atlas. To ask you not to be a hero is like asking the sun not to rise. Take care of Barbara for me, Young Atlas."

Jim: "I'm sorry. He was trying to save me, and it didn't even stop the Titan. He said he couldn't fly. This is all my fault." Barbara: "No, Jim. You did what you had to do. What you thought you should do. That's what Walter loved most about you. That you never give up. That you see things through. You always have. Not like your father." Jim: "We never talk about him. I've always wondered." Barbara: "There's really nothing I can tell you, Jim. No big revelation I can give you. No great thing I can say, except... you're your mother's son. You will always have me... and I will always have you. And neither of us ever give up."

Toby: "What're we gonna do?" Jim: "I don't know! I don't know. I don't know anymore."

"Claire and Blinky are in there. We can't— I can't leave."

Archie vision: [through the Krohnisfere] "Tell Douxie... I said goodbye." Douxie: "I hope he's happy." Jim: "I'm sure he is. He's with his dad."

Jim: "Nari, we have the Krohnisfere, but we don't know hot to make the Ninth Configuration. How does it make it right?" Nari: "Trollhunter make Ninth Configuration. Krohnisfere will make right. Jim: "Please, Nari." Nari: "Time unfolds differently, like a flower." [conjures a floating daisy] "Only Trollhunter will know." Jim: "Ugh, that doesn't make any sense!"

"But why? The three can no longer unite. Blinky, you're sure you read the grimoire right?"

"'The Trollhunter will know...' 'The Trollhunter will know...' Gah! What do I know? 'The Ninth Configuration.' Okay, nine. What is nine...? What is ni— ni... Ninth Configuration? The Ninth Configuration..." [sighs, looks at his friends' reflection in the Amulet] "The Ninth... Configuration." [looks around at his eight fellow heroes] "The configuration... is us.

Jim: "'Destiny is a gift.'" Blinky: "Our loved ones gave their lives, but we are here in this very moment of quiet desperation." Claire: "And we've learned that what feels like a burden pushing down on our shoulders..." Douxie: "Is actually a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights!" Krel: "Wait, are you guys doing that "hero speech" thing? I love the "hero speech" thing!" Aja: "Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor..." Krel: "That to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what makes us heroes!" AAARRRGGHH!!!: "Don't think." Everyone: "Become!"

"If we stop Bellroc, we'll stop the Fire Titan. Blinky, we need to be right next to it."

"Let's knock Bellroc of her perch."

"All right, Trollhunters, get ready. Now!

Bellorc: "The world is but seconds away from a glorious rebirth. Don't spend that time here. Go. Embrace your loved ones for the final time." Jim: "No, I'm right where I need to be." Bellroc: "Then you will die alone. You have no amulet, no armor, and yet you still think yourself... a hero?" Jim: "The Amulet didn't make me a hero. I already was." Bellroc: "Hmm. Such hubris."

"For the good of all, Daylight is mine to command!"

"Ha! Is that all you got?"

"Your turn, Bellroc. Give up."

Bellroc: "My— My magic... I'm powerless!" Jim: "Don't worry... You get used to it!"

Toby: [weakly] "Jimbo... did we save the world?" Jim: "Yeah, we did. Tobes, we'll fix you. We'll get you a doctor or magic or alien tech." Blinky: "Master Jim. I'm afraid..." Jim: "No, there's gotta be a way. There's always a way." Here, take this. [removes Amulet] "Use this. You can't just give up." Toby: "I'm not giving up, Jimbo. You taught me that. You all taught me so much, gave me so much."

Jim: [crying] "Please, Tobes, you can't leave me. You always been with me." Toby: "Always have been, always will be." Jim: "It was the two of us at the start." [sniffles] "It'll be the two of us at the end." Toby: "It's okay, Jimbo. I didn't think. I became."

Jim: "What if it wasn't the Titans this thing was meant to make right?" Claire: "What do you mean?" Jim: "'Time unfolds differently, like a flower.'" Claire: "'Only the Trollhunter will know.'" Krel: "Know what?" Jim: "What really happened. 'Time unfolds differently.' If I go back, things will happen differently."

Jim: [reads the Amulet] "'For the good of all.' No matter what happens, if it's meant to be, it will be." Blinky: "Master Jim, if you do this, you alone will be burdened by what could have been." Jim: "Shouldering burdens is what heroes do. You taught me that."

Claire: [sobs] "Don't give up on me. Whatever happens... don't stop trying until I love you." Jim: "If we're meant to be, I will always be here…" [touches Claire's temple] "...and here." [touches Claire's heart]

"Whatever happens next, I'll make sure this isn't goodbye. I promise."

"Tobes was here when the raccoons knocked the trash over. Where is he?"

Toby: "You seem really happy to see me. Are you doing okay, Jim?" Jim: "It sure feels good to be back,"

Jim: "So, uh, the school play, heh, I hear they're looking for people." Claire: "Have at it, Romeo."

Strickler: "Romeo and Juliet. You never seemed to show much interest in the theater before, Young Atlas." Jim: "Yeah, I don't know. Something tells me this'll be worth my while. Anyway, I wanted to come by to ask you if you'd come over for dinner." Strickler: "Dinner?" Jim: "I'd like to introduce you to my mom."

"Take the canal. Maybe you'll stumble upon something... interesting."

"I'm James Lake, Jr., here to try out for the part of Romeo."

"Destiny... Destiny is a gift. Some go their entire lives living an existence of quiet desperation, never learning the truth... that what feels as though a burden pushing down upon our shoulders... is actually a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor. That to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means... to be a hero. Don't think. Become."

Trivia

In the 2015 book, Jim's last name was "Sturges", which meant "warrior", and he came from a long family line of Trollhunters. Jim is the first human Trollhunter.[10][11] For "Jimhunters" (up until "Wizard Underground"), he was also the first half-troll Trollhunter. He is also the only Trollhunter who doesn't have a real epithet like the past Trollhunters, as most of the trolls called him with insulting ones like "the Dead-Meat" and "the Baby-Handed." However, he has been called Jim "the Bular-Slayer" once, but it's unknown if it's Jim's confirmed epithet or if he'll ever have one. Although at the end of The Felled novel, Jim wondered if the trolls would either call him "Jim the Just", "Jim the Jittery", or maybe "Jim the Jinxed" (though the last two were sarcastic). It is mentioned by Aaron Waltke and Chad Quandt that, in the Trollhunters film, Rise of the Titans, the story will mostly focus on Jim trying to find more of himself without reliance on Merlin's now-lost magic and becoming his own champion, with the help of his friends and family, as he becomes the next wielder of Excalibur.[12] And as explained by Aaron Waltke on Discord, Jim's full arc was explored in the movie. Jim is ambidextrous.[13] Jim keeps a photo of him and his mother from her graduation in his wallet, as shown in "Bittersweet Sixteen". As shown in "The Reckless Club", Jim is able to slurp spaghetti noodles into his mouth and breathe them out of his nose. Aaron Walkte revealed that, while there is no official date, Jim's birthday takes place in late Fall, possibly during the month of October.[14] On the 5th anniversary of his original voice actor, Anton Yelchin’s, passing, Aaron Waltke held a Twitter QnA which revealed that Jim’s birthday is October 10th, 2000. Along with Claire and Toby, Jim appears in every episode of Trollhunters. Jim always wears three outfits in the whole series: his day attire, his armor, and his gym uniform/pajamas. His Eclipse Armor doesn't really count as they are from the same source. As told from the end of Chapter 9 in The Adventure Begins, Barbara used to read Jim the tales of "The Sword in the Stone" when he was a child, which is a possible foreshadowing of Jim pulling Excalibur out of the stone.[15] Jim Lake Jr. is the last character Anton Yelchin ever voiced before his death on June 19th, 2016. In "Bad Coffee", Anton Yelchin voices Jim just before he and Strickler begin sparring. After inhaling the Gravesand, Jim's voice permanently changes to Emile Hirsch, a close friend of Anton. This not only means that these were all the lines recorded from Yelchin before his untimely death, Strickler provides an in-universe explanation that a few changes from the Gravesand are permanent. In this case, the gravesand permanently damaged/transformed Jim's larynx, making his voice sound deeper and gravely (something Blinky takes note of). Recycled audio of Yelchin, however, is used for the remainder of the series, and Yelchin is credited as an "Additional Voice Talent" in the end credits, such as laughs, screams, grunts, etc. Jim is (technically speaking) the first character to be voiced by two different voice actors at the same time, notably in Part Three as Yelchin's recycled audio is mixed with Hirsch's dialogues. The second being Bellroc, who is voiced by Piotr Michael and Kay Bess. While a human/troll hybrid, Jim was burned by exposure to sunlight, and while he had a greater resistance to sunlight compared to trolls, prolonged exposure could have killed him. Aaron Waltke also reveals that, as a troll, Jim was partially related to Blinky's tribe. In his troll form, Jim bears a very slight resemblance to Beast from the X-Men Marvel comics. In "Win Lose or Draal" Jim's height (in human form) is revealed to be approximately 5 feet, 6 inches. Jim is the first person ever to survive the Deep, the second being Krel. Jim has been compared to two other fictional characters: Atlas, being called "Young Atlas". This nickname compares him to the Greek titan "Atlas" from Greek mythology. The comparison being that Jim has such responsibility that he carries the world on his shoulders, something Strickler lampshades in "Wherefore Art Thou, Trollhunter?". Peer Gynt, being called "Little Gynt" from the opera of the same name, the story about a boy who stumbles upon a mountain of trolls Jim Lake Jr. bares a slight and striking resemblance to Hiccup from DreamWorks' How to Train Your Dragon franchise (coincidentally, another franchise owned by DreamWorks Animation). Jim is a fan of the How to Train Your Dragon franchise. In the episode "Arcadia's Most Wanted", one of Victoria's henchmen calls Jim "Lancelot" after he armors up, which could be a foreshadowing of him meeting the real Lancelot in Wizards. Jim has the 3rd most appearances in the Tales of Arcadia trilogy overall, appearing in 69 episodes out of 88 total.

Jim received the nickname 'Troll Jim' from AAARRRGGGHHH!!! in Jimshunters. Because of AAARRRGGGHHH!!!, he ended up combining the words Jim and Troll. In Trollhunters, Jim, in his half-troll form, doesn't have armored fingers on his robust bare hand. But in Wizards of the Coast, he does have armored fingers. According to AAARRRGGGHHH!!!, when Jim went back to the past and met his future friend (that is, if he and the others, along with the protagonist Douxie, don't mess up the timeline), he said he saw that Jim is a Troll!! but smells like a human.

Jim can't take off the armor because, basically, he was super scared and overwhelmed by the effects of turning into a troll, and the amulet reacted to that, like in the first episode, when it sensed his fear and didn't want to come off.

Jim can't take off the armor because, basically, he was super scared and overwhelmed by the effects of turning into a troll, and the amulet reacted to that, like in the first episode, when it sensed his fear and didn't want to come off. If I were analyzing Jim Lake Jr. from the perspective of a psychologist, without attempting to make an official diagnosis (since fictional characters cannot undergo a clinical evaluation and the series never confirms one), I would describe his case like this: Jim's transformation into a half-Troll represents a potentially traumatic event. He loses something central to his identity: his human body. This loss is not only physical; it changes how he sees himself, how he relates to others, and the life he imagined for himself. Psychologically, this can be understood as a process of grief.

During this period in Trollhunters, Jim displays a pattern of behaviors consistent with someone experiencing significant emotional distress. He appears persistently sad, loses much of his spontaneity, finds less enjoyment in daily interactions, becomes preoccupied with the loss of his humanity, feels burdened by responsibility, and struggles to envision a hopeful future. In addition, he experiences a profound identity crisis, repeatedly questioning who he is after the transformation.

These behaviors resemble symptoms commonly associated with depression. However, there is an important distinction between having depressive symptoms and meeting the diagnostic criteria for Major Depressive Disorder. A clinical diagnosis would require a comprehensive psychological evaluation, specific symptom criteria, a defined duration, and evidence of significant impairment in functioning. The series never establishes that Jim meets those criteria.

Instead, the context strongly suggests a psychological response to severe trauma. It is understandable that someone who has lost their physical appearance, fears rejection, and believes they have left their former life behind would experience intense sadness, temporary hopelessness, and difficulty accepting their new reality.

Another important observation is that Jim never completely loses his ability to connect with others. Even when he withdraws emotionally, he continues to respond to the support of Claire, Toby, Blinky, and his friends. From a psychological standpoint, strong social support is one of the most protective factors in recovering from traumatic experiences.

His emotional development throughout the story reinforces this interpretation. As his friends repeatedly remind him that his identity is defined by his character rather than his appearance, his self-esteem gradually begins to recover. Over time, he stops defining himself solely by what he has lost and starts integrating his half-Troll identity into his sense of self.

In Wizards, this progress becomes even more apparent. Jim still experiences emotional pain, particularly when Arthur calls him a "beast" or when he is reminded of his former human life. These moments reactivate unresolved feelings of grief and the pain of being judged because of his appearance, but they do not represent a constant emotional state.

His conversation with Deya (Callista) is especially meaningful from a psychological perspective. Earlier in the story, Jim relied on his friends to remind him who he truly was. By the time of Wizards, he is able to provide that same reassurance to someone else. This suggests emotional growth, a more stable sense of identity, and the ability to transform his own painful experiences into empathy and encouragement.

Regarding the Onyx Shard in Wizards, the situation is different. The physical pain, recurring chest discomfort, and magical influence understandably increase his stress, fear, and emotional exhaustion. However, these reactions are directly related to an ongoing physical and magical threat rather than clear evidence of depression. Despite this burden, Jim continues making thoughtful decisions, protecting his friends, expressing affection toward Claire, and maintaining hope that the situation can be overcome.

From a psychological perspective, Jim's emotional journey can be summarized as follows:

Immediately after becoming a half-Troll: He experiences severe emotional distress, grief over the loss of his humanity, and symptoms that resemble depression.

During his recovery: With the support of his friends, he gradually rebuilds his self-esteem and develops a more integrated sense of identity.

In Wizards: He still carries emotional scars from his transformation and occasionally struggles when reminded of what he lost or when others dehumanize him. However, he consistently demonstrates resilience, emotional stability, leadership, healthy relationships, and the ability to support others.

Overall, the most psychologically consistent interpretation is that Jim undergoes a period of profound emotional suffering following his transformation, displaying symptoms that are compatible with depression but are more convincingly explained as a trauma-related grief response and identity crisis. By the time of Wizards, he has largely recovered emotionally, even though he continues to bear the lasting psychological impact of what he experienced. Jim Lake Jr treats Onyx Shards with oxycodone. Regardless of whether Jim was human or half-Troll, he always wore half of the armor; he always wore either the Daylight armor or the Eclipse armor (usually the Daylight armor because the Eclipse armor is only for Gunmar). He didn't use the shield, much less the helmet or the glaues. He only used them in specific moments, like when a troll was about to hit him on the head. Or when Angor Rot always stole the daylight sword, and Jim had to use the glaives and shield. But did you know that Jim normally doesn't use any of those three weapons because he doesn't want to? Simple.

Claire Nuñez/History

Claire Nuñez/History Main History Relationships Quotes Gallery

The history of Claire Nuñez, the deuteragonist of Trollhunters.

Backstory When she was younger, Claire slept with a stuffed bunny named "Suzie Snooze" and at one point, met Mary Wang and Darci Scott, her two best friends.

Claire took Honors Algebra during her freshman year of high school.[1]

Trollhunters (Part One) Getting to Know Jim One day in gym class, Claire is talking to Darci when Jim approaches her and tries to flirt with her by speaking Spanish. Claire suggests to Jim that he should try out for the school play, which she is also trying out for.

Becoming Part 1- Claire-you speak spanish On the day of the auditions, while trying out to hide his new Trollhunter Armor and duties, Jim sees Claire reciting one of the Romeo and Juliet lines brilliantly, before blowing her and the crowd away with lines he picked up from Blinky, which wins him the role of Romeo, opposite Claire, who is playing Juliet. Claire had a crush on Jim before they started dating.

On the night that Jim is being chased by Bular, Claire sits by her porch waiting for Jim. Growing impatient, she decides to sneak into the backyard. There, she suddenly finds clean sword holes in the boulders, which made her a little suspicious if the sword he used during his rehearsal was actually a fake. But before she can do anything, Barbara (Jim’s mom) arrives and instantly recognizes Claire as the councilwoman's daughter. Claire tells Barbara about the auctions and Jim's amazing acting skills, much to Barbara's shock. Claire and Barbara think Jim was trying to surprise her, so they decide to keep it a secret.

Unfortunately, Jim's Trollhunting duties cause him to miss his practice sessions with Claire, and she starts to become a bit hostile towards Jim.

When Jim's ready to fight Draal, Jim leaves a note in Claire's backpack claiming that he has to "fight some monsters", which Claire believes is a metaphor for what could be psychological problems. Thinking this is the reason why he's been missing their practice sessions, Claire decides to invite Jim over to her house to discuss this issue. When Jim suddenly has to leave for another mission, Claire begins to get suspicious of him.

Becoming Suspicious When Claire gets tickets to a concert, she decides to ask Mary to babysit her little brother, Enrique, to which Mary agrees. The next day, Claire finds her missing stuffed bunny with Jim and Toby (which they found from a goblin who was leaving with a baby). Just then, Mary cancels her job at the last minute, and Claire decides to have Jim babysit Enrique.

Claire comes back later only to find the house is a total wreck thanks to Jim, Toby, and unbeknownst to her, NotEnrique. Not to mention, her folks have also come back early. The Nuñez family get angry at Jim and blame him for everything, believing him to have used their absence to throw a wild party. Claire refuses to speak to Jim anymore, or forgive him for what he did. Though she starts talking to him again when she learns that there was no party and instead starts to become even more suspicious of him.

Soon enough, Claire begins to realize that maybe "monsters" wasn't a metaphor for his psychological problems.

One night, Claire decides to investigate what is going on with Jim. She sneaks into his basement at the same time that Mr. Strickler is having dinner with Jim and Barbara. She overhears Jim and Stricklander's conversation and decides to see what is happening. Just then, she turns around, sees Draal, and faints after getting hit in the head with a pipe.

Learning Jim's Secret 2021-01-20-20-02-20 When Jim finds out that the goblins are going after Claire, he decides to find a way to protect her. That night, Jim sneaks into Claire's room to tell her the truth, but still, Claire is a nuisance with Jim due to the fact that it never told him the truth before and does not want to listen to it.

Just then, the goblins appear and Jim takes Claire out of the house and into the woods for safety. Despite this, Claire still doesn’t believe Jim’s claims. When Jim transforms into his armor and Nomura appears, Claire not only is shocked, and realizes that Jim was telling the truth after all, she is repented for not only having not believed in him before but also being unfairly angry with him over his recent behavior and blunders (particularly for not making time for the play) when he was only busy trying to balance his normal teenage school life with saving both worlds.

When Jim ordered her to flee from Nomura, she goes back to her house and warns her parents of the danger Jim was in

Then Claire and her father go to help Jim, despite the latter's distrust of Jim. But it was too late, Nomura was about to take an injured Jim. But from the other side, Toby and AAARRRGGHH!!! are running to help Jim. Nomura left Jim and ran away from all of them before any of them get there. Later, Claire and Toby take Jim to the hospital and they accompany him there as well. Barbara comments that Claire chose to stay and watch over him for the rest of the night.

While Jim and the other Trollhunters go to stop Bular from fixing the Killahead Bridge, Claire waits and covers for him at the school play. After the Trollhunters succeed in destroying Bular, Jim makes it back to the play just in time. During the celebration, Jim promises Claire to locate Enrique, no matter what it takes, which immensely helped in mending and strengthen their growing relationship.

First Visit to Trollmarket 2021-05-12-12-23-10 Claire becomes overly excited to finally visit Trollmarket for the first time. Fortunately, when Jim tries to show her the basics, she easily adjusts and is shown to know various things about the trolls such as how to get into the magical plaza and even becomes fluent in the Troll language, all of which easily impresses Blinky, AAARRRGGHH!!!, and most of all, Vendel.

They enter Blinky's library to find a possible way to get into the Darklands and learn from Blinky that there are three Triumbric Stones that can help them defeat Gunmar, the King of Gum-Gums and rescue Enrique, which means it's time for another adventure.

Claire soon realizes that since she now is part of Jim's secret double life, she will have to cover for him to prevent the troll's world from getting exposed.

First, when Jim is nominated for prom king, Claire and Toby decide to cover for him while he's fighting a golem, claiming that he's "thinking of a theme." Luckily, Jim arrives just in time and wins the theme event with the theme "Mole"(Just covered in dirt from the Golem fight), which happens to be the school mascot.

Second, when it's time for them to go find Gunmar's birthstone, the Trollhunters tell their folks that they're going camping, much to Barbara's dismay, since she's still angry at Jim for putting himself in danger and not explaining.

Quest to Gatto's Keep Jim - We're gonna Die! (2) The gang arrives in Trollmarket to start the mission. Blinky takes them to a magical gyre that trolls use to get around the world in record time. Blinky takes the gang inside the gyre and takes them to Argentina, where the first stone is located. They arrive there and end up at a place called, "Ojos del Salado", a village underneath a volcano, which is also the home of Gatto, the keeper of the stone. He also happens to be a living volcano that takes delight in eating other trolls that seek his treasure. When they locate Gatto, Jim tries to explain what is going on, but Gatto will not give them the Birthstone unless they answer his riddle, "Which begins and has no end, and ends all that which begins?" The Trollhunters try to think of an answer but are too confused to find a logical solution. At the last second though, Claire finds the answer, which is "death", since it ends people's lives and nothing comes after it happens. Unfortunately, Gatto does not take it so well and swallows both Blinky and Toby.

While Blinky and Toby find the Birthstone and try to find a way to get out of the stomach, the others battle Gatto's minions. With the help of Toby's tacos, Toby and Blinky manage to escape the stomach with the Birthstone. However, Blinky also seems to have had a little encounter with one of the spells in the stomach...

A Whole New Blinky 2021-05-09-21-09-44 The next day, the gang arrives in Trollmarket only to discover that Blinky has transformed into a human being as a result of the chemicals in Gatto's stomach. The kids then take him to Earth in broad daylight for the very first time and show him the wonders and disadvantages of being human.

As the kids take Blinky to look at the sunset, Angor Rot creates glass golems from the dumpsters to attack them. While the gang fights the monsters, Jim sees Angor Rot behind a tree and goes to investigate what is going on. He encounters Angor, who traps him in a magic ward. Angor decides to spare Jim's life because he apparently has a worse fate than death in mind for the hunter. He then uses his staff to drain some of Jim's powers and use them against him in their next battle.

New Weapon New weapon Jim and Claire are still having some trouble asking each other out to the dance, so Claire turns to Mary and Darci for some advice, while Jim turns to Toby for advice.

The Trollhunters go to the gyre to make their way to the Quagawumps in the swampy lands of Florida. However, since the inhabitants are hostile towards outsiders, they will need a mole to assist them. Since Toby looks like their late king, he will pretend to be the reincarnation of him, which will gain the trust of the trolls.

They arrive at the swamp, where the Quagawumps are easily fooled into thinking that Toby is their king. The trolls start worshiping him and throw a party in his honor. When Jim reveals that he doesn't know to dance to Claire, she decides to help him move his feet to the music and it helps him enjoy himself.

Just when Jim and Claire are about to kiss, Blungo, the Wumpa's pretend king arrives and shows the other Wumpas that Toby is not the Shattered King. Before Blungo can attack Toby, Angor Rot arrives and turns Blungo to stone, causing an epic battle. During the battle, Claire falls into a portal with Angor and manages to obtain his Shadow Staff, which creates portals, but unfortunately loses the Killstone as well. Claire decides to keep the staff, and the Trollhunters bid a heartfelt goodbye to their friends.

Claire vs. Toby 2021-01-19-20-48-44 Claire begins to start training on how to use the Shadow Staff and instantly starts becoming an expert. Toby becomes jealous, so he gets a weapon for himself as well, the Warhammer. Unfortunately, he doesn't quite catch on as fast as Claire did. Bagdwella then arrives with a package for the Trollhunters to mail to her sister in Utah, and they agree.

Since Jim is participating in another competition after lunch, he sends Toby and Claire to mail the package for him. Unfortunately, Toby seems to be particularly hostile to Claire. As soon as Jim leaves, Toby and Claire are ready to go deliver the package, but Toby has lost the address and starts panicking while looking for it, which makes Claire frustrated. In a panicked state, Toby accidentally opens the package, unleashing the spell contained inside.

In math class, Toby starts levitating, which causes a disturbance among his students and the teacher. Claire and Toby get themselves excused and decide to go to Blinky to help them figure out exactly how to undo the spell. On their way, they catch the attention to a police officer, who begins questioning them. As soon as the cop's back is turned, Toby starts floating again and Claire uses a kite to help keep him from floating away. As Claire pulls Toby down, Toby admits that he felt as if Claire was trying to take his place as Jim's sidekick, but Claire assures him otherwise.

They arrive at Jim's house, where the curse gets passed on and Blinky explains that only Vendel can help them undo the curse. Claire decides to use the Shadow Staff to get them to Trollmarket but is having some trouble doing so. Luckily, Toby, Blinky, and Draal manage to anger Claire enough to have her conjure up a big enough portal to get to Vendel and convert the curse to toby's Warhammer, which gave it the ability to alter gravity. After that, Claire and Toby start getting along better.

Pixie Infestation Claire runs into Mary and Darci about asking Jim to the dance, which Mary starts going crazy over since apparently, it's the tradition for "a guy to ask a girl."

2021-01-19-20-36-18 Later in class, a pixie enters Claire's ear and creates a hallucination of her worst nightmare: Senor Uhl is yelling at her and blaming her for Enrique's kidnapping, which causes Claire to run off crying and throws herself into a locker. Toby frees her from the locker and tries in vain to get her to wake up (since Claire literally sees Toby as Enrique). Toby manages to get the pixie out of her ear when he slaps her, who then, in turn, slaps him back, and they run to the gym to help Jim stop Angor Rot, but get locked.

When Jim and Angor's battle ends and all of the pixies are returned to their container, Toby and Claire rush to comfort Jim and make sure he is okay. Jim informs them that Angor Rot will destroy his mother if he doesn't take Strickler's ring from him.

Party Monsters 2021-05-09-19-30-03 One night, Jim, Toby, and Claire try to think. Since they can't think of a plan to steal the Inferna Copula (a ring used to control Angor Rot) without Strickler knowing or Jim having to attack him (since it means that Barbara will be hurt as well), so they decide to go to Blinky's library to find a way. While Toby and Jim go to Trollmarket, Claire decides to stay at home so she can hang out with Mary and Darci.

When Claire gets inside, she gets into an argument with NotEnrique, which ends with him being sent back upstairs to his room/crib for talking back to her. To seemingly get back at Claire for touching his scruff, NotEnrique calls his trollish friends (including AAARRRGGHH!!!) to come over to the house for a wild party. The trolls arrive at the house and start having the time of their lives.

Claire finds out what is happening and, in vain, tries to stop it, but without prevail.

Before Claire can do anything about the party, Mary and Darci arrive and want to come in, but Claire tries to keep them out to prevent them from seeing the trolls. Unfortunately, it makes Mary and Darci think that Claire is throwing a wild party with college guys, and they decide to go check it out. Claire goes after them and brings them into her bedroom to convince them to leave.

Mary and Darci become fed up and demand to know what is going on, and why Claire isn't hanging out with them anymore. Before Claire can explain, Mary and Darci quickly assume that Claire is dating a college guy, and is trying to keep it from Jim to spare his feelings, which Claire decides to go along with.

Before Mary and Darci can get back to the party, the police arrive to confront the owners about the party, causing the trolls to sneak out of the house, safe and sound. As soon as the house is empty, Claire finds out that it was really NotEnrique the whole time, who apologizes for his behavior and the two grow to truly accept each other as siblings.

The Kairosect Toby's use of Elix-Lore had suggested they get their hands on the Kairosect. But since it was under the protection of Gatto, Jim came up with a plan to walk into Ojos del Salado without his amulet to distract Gatto with a riddle. Once the giant troll had correctly answered it, Jim gave the signal, at which Claire portaled the whole team to his location, triggering a brief fight before they all went down Gatto's throat to Gatto's Keep, where they locate the Kairosect before throwing a burrito into Gatto's stomach as they made their escape.

Upon their return to Trollmarket, Blinky examined the artifact and suddenly vanished upon touching it, reappearing on a shelf up above, explaining that the Kairosect enables the user to temporarily step outside of time. He demonstrated its powers once again but stopping time and posed the entire team; Claire was forced on her back while balancing Toby with her legs. With a solution to their problem in hand, as Jim and Toby became intrigued by the possibilities of using the Kairosect, Claire suggested he could use it to pass Senor Uhl's Spanish test if he hoped to pass his class. However, Blinky forewarned that onyl one person can use the Kairosect, that the timestopping effect was only temporary and could only be used thrice; Blinky had wasted their shots, so he advised the teens to be certain of Strickler's whereabouts before proceeding. Claire then suggested Jim focus on studying.

The next day, Claire approached Jim and Toby at school, questioning if it was a good idea to give Angor back his soul, not trusting he would not come after Jim again. As Jim was phoned by Bagdwella, Claire, supported by Toby, suggested Jim instead use the Inferna Copula to control Angor. Claire tried pressing Jim to adhere to her plan only to stress him out and he stormed away in frustration.

As they were leaving school, as Jim summed up all the tasks he had to perform, Claire asked he if intended to hand over the ring or not. Suddenly, Jim was called by Blinky, who announced he had reverted to troll form but was trapped in Arcadia and his mother about to discover him. Claire attempted to rush home to retrieve her Shadow Staff, only to run into the path of an oncoming truck, forcing Jim to use the Kairosect, allowing him to move her to safety. Once the time stopping effect had ceased, Claire quickly realized he used the Kairosect.

Upon reuniting in Trollmarket, as Jim had produced the recovered Killstone, Blinyk forewarned that with the Inferna Copula destroyed, there's nothing controlling Angor anymore. Draal then arrived with Jim's Vespa, announcing that he found no sign of Angor in the dwelling Jim found him in, so Blinky warned the teens to be vigilant.

Defeating Angor Rot 2021-06-06-12-38-24 Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! take Claire and Toby to the remains of the bridge to research the last Triumbric Stone, since it may be inscribed there. Blinky explains that Gunmar's eye is the last stone. As Blinky explains, Chomsky comes out of the portal to the Darklands with a disturbing message from Gunmar.

Just then, Jim arrives at Trollmarket with his mother, who has been knocked out by Angor. Vendel informs the Trollhunters that Barbara cannot be cured of the curse unless they find the proper incantation, which is hidden in Strickler's office at school. While Jim stays behind to console his mother, Toby and Claire go to retrieve the book.

They arrive in Stickler's office, not knowing that Angor has secretly followed them. When they find the book, Coach Lawrence arrives and takes them back to the dance. To stall, Toby fakes going into anamorphic shock, Lawrence doesn't buy it, but the drama/math teacher does and performs CPR on Toby (much to his discomfort). Claire takes Toby to the roof so no one will see them, but Angor arrives to attack them.

Claire manages to send the Shadow Staff and the spell to Jim, but Angor has them dangling from the school banner. Rather than do away with them, he steals Claire's purse and escapes, much to Claire's confusion.

The two go into the dance and receive a message from Jim about Barbara. Toby says that "Dr. Lake is gonna be a-okay!" Toby offers Claire to dance with him since she is disappointed that Jim couldn't come to the dance. Claire gets up and accepts, but before they start to dance, they both see the Mole Mascot, and Claire then encourages Toby to go and dance with the Mole Mascot, who then turns out to be none other than Darci, who then has a brief conversation with Toby about being herself, and even calling Toby "cute".

Jim arrives and finds Claire sitting all by herself, so he takes her to the hill and they have a little dance of their own in the sunset. They then begin to lean in to kiss each other, but before their lips meet, Claire jumps back, claiming she now realizes why Angor took the purse because it had her horngazel, her key to Trollmarket, in it.

After Angor turns to stone during the fight with Jim, Toby's rage about how Angor Rot cut AAARRRGGHH!!! with Creeper's Sun fuels him to shatter Angor Rot's rock body. After his defeat, the other mourn by AAARRRGGHH!!!'s stone body at the loss of their close friend. Claire comforts a distraught Toby and tells him to save his anger for the Darklands. However, Jim (feeling guilty) decides to keep his promise to Claire and travels into the Darklands by himself to save her baby brother, Enrique, leaving his friends behind so they wouldn't get hurt like AAARRRGGHH!!!.

Trollhunters (Part Two) Covering for Jim After Jim goes into the Darklands to save Enrique, the other Trollhunters carry AAARRRGGHH!!!'s remains to Blinky's library. NotEnrique decides to leave and go home, but Claire stops him because they need to find a plan to rescue Jim and cover for him on Earth while he's away. NotEnrique refuses to help them, even when Claire continues to threaten him. Blinky tells Claire that only a Trollhunter can enter the portal to the Darklands, rendering her efforts pointless. Just then, NotEnrique receives some text messages from Draal, who is at the hospital guarding Jim's mother. The other Trollhunters decide to help Jim's mom if they can't help Jim himself. This motivates Blinky into coming out of his pity party and start trying to look for ways to help cover for Jim and get into the Darklands.

They go to Jim's neighborhood to find Barbara (who has been erased of her memory of Jim's Trollhunting career) heading home. They rush up to her and she demands to know why they are not in school and why Jim is not with them. Claire quickly lies and claims that school is canceled and Toby claims that Jim is at cooking school, which Barbara easily believes. When Barbara is about to continue driving home, NotEnrique (in his human form) decides to start crying to distract Barbara, but that still doesn't stall Barbara enough.

They arrive at Jim's house to see that the Lake Residence is surrounded by the police after the battle between Jim, Strickler, and Angor. When Toby and Claire try to cover up the mess again, Barbara starts to become suspicious and demands them to tell her the truth. Just then, Blinky shows up disguised as Jim and clears things up with the police. He gets Barbara to go inside and takes the others to the other side of the house and explains to them about his Glamour Mask, which can help him take on anyone's form. Blinky hands Toby the mask, but he accidentally breaks it, prompting the gang to try to find another plan.

Plan K Claire, Toby, Blinky, NotEnrique, and Draal head to the gyre and go to an undersea volcano to help them with their new backup plan. Blinky hands them some bundles of costumes designed by the Krubera tribe to help them withstand the darkness and crushing pressures of the deepest mines, called "Graven Garbs." Just then, the volcano erupts and sends the protagonists to the bottom of the ocean.

The Trollhunters arrive in a place called the "Mariana Trench", where they encounter a Deep-Sea Troll called the "Kelpestrum", which spends most of his time swallowing a whole bunch of rare Troll artifacts, one of which could be another Glamour Mask. Unfortunately, the Graven Garbs start to deteriorate, since apparently, they do not handle the oceans as good as they do with mines. When the creature opens its gills, the Trollhunters enter the respiratory system and slide right down the gullet. Just then, some Volcanic Trolls emerge from the innards and start to gain upon the Trollhunters. Claire tries to conjure up a portal, but one of the Volcanic Trolls snatches the staff out of her hand before she can do it. Toby, feeling that he has failed Jim, takes out his Warhammer and decides to fight the Volcanic Trolls with Draal, who easily takes out all of the Volcanic Trolls. Unfortunately, one of the trolls swallows the Shadow Staff. Claire and NotEnrique attack the troll, who hacks up the staff. Just then, the Graven Garbs start to fill up with water, and they are shot right out of the Kelpestrum's blowhole. The gang, the staff, and the masks start to sink into the ocean. Luckily, NotEnrique manages to save the staff, and Blinky saves one of the masks. Claire conjures up a portal and they are sent back to the gyre.

Jim Lake Disease The next couple of weeks, Toby starts impersonating Jim at home to make sure Barbara does not find out about the Darklands but begins to feel guilty for stealing Jim's identity. He also starts sending some candy bars to Jim in the Darklands.

At that same time, Claire covers for Jim at school by claiming that Jim has a contagious terminal illness called, "Jim Lake Disease" and is currently being quarantined in the hospital. She creates a fake webpage and hands Eli a coin collecting jar to "find the cure" for Jim.

The Troll is the Key to the Hunter Escape from the Darklands - Toby - You've killed him Claire and Toby go back to Trollmarket and try to help Blinky find a way to get the real Jim back, when all of a sudden, the Krubera tribe arrives to destroy the Killahead Bridge so Jim doesn't endanger Trollkind anymore. That night, the portal to the Darklands opens up and Jim is on his way with Enrique. Toby and Claire try to stop them from destroying the bridge so Jim can get out, but only the amulet and Enrique manage to escape, and the bridge is destroyed, trapping Jim in the Darklands.

Blinky, Claire, and Toby go back to the library to ponder on what to do next. Just then, the amulet starts speaking to them and tells them, "the troll is the key to the hunter." They start to ponder this hint but do not understand it. However, Toby figures out that what they meant is that AAARRRGGHH!!! is the one who can help them get into the Darklands to rescue Jim. Blinky starts to look into a book about AAARRRGGHH!!!'s curse, so they can track down the creator of the poison, and therefore find a cure, only to find out that the people who created it were "The Janus Order", which is a group of Gunmar followers.

Just then, Vendel arrives and puts the three on probation for their actions the other day. Vendel informs them that the Tribunal Order has sent the remains of the bridge to be thrown into the bottom of the ocean to prevent any more harm. Luckily, Claire has a little plan in store for her friends.

Stealing the Bridge Toby and Claire arrive at school, where people are still concerned about Jim's fake illness. However, Steve isn't buying it and believes that Jim is being a sore loser because he beat him for prom king.

2021-05-09-22-02-52 That night, Toby, Claire, and NotEnrique go into the woods to retrieve the crates containing the bridge pieces. Claire conjures up a portal and finds herself in a ship with the crates. When she starts sending the crates back through the door, the captain announces that the crates will be dumped into the ocean in just a few minutes, so they throw the pieces out one-by-one. Suddenly, Claire starts getting tired and loses her confidence. To give her a motivation, NotEnrique starts provoking her, causing her to conjure up bigger portals and get the crates out just in time for Steve (who followed them to the woods) to be knocked out cold.

The Janus Order The Trollhunters find Otto Scaarbach downtown to follow him to the Janus Order, but Toby's recklessness causes them to get caught and he runs away. They try to follow him, but they end up losing him in an alley.

2021-05-11-17-33-08 The next day, Toby gets some new headgear from the dentist, which starts picking up some freaky signals from the radio. That night, Blinky and Claire listen closely to the signals, which turn out to be coordinated for the location of the Janus Order.

The coordinates lead to a travel agency. They manage to break into the building and find a secret passageway to a hidden room, where they discover an entrance to an underground lair. They realize that this must be the place where the Janus Order concocts magic hexes and evil plots for Gunmar. Claire and Toby managed to get past security by having Claire pass herself off as a Changeling from Mexico.

The two then arrive at the meeting, where they discover that the Changelings are planning more than just the return of Gunmar: they are also planning to resurrect their other leader whom the fellow changelings call their "Lady Creator". Before they can get more information on the cult, Toby's braces cause them to get caught and get chased by the whole Janus Order.

Otto manages to capture Blinky, Claire, Toby, and NotEnrique and takes them to some sort of strange room. After Otto takes off Toby's headgear, Otto tells them to steal Vendel's staff in exchange for the antidote. Reluctantly, they steal Vendel's staff and give it to Otto. Blinky reads the list for the ingredients and it says that first, they need, "the tears of one who has never been kissed" (that one being Toby), some expired food, a rat, a skeleton of gnome, and a fragment of a Hearthstone.

Quest into The Darklands They go back to Trollmarket and mix the ingredients together, causing a large cloud of blue smoke, which restores AAARRRGGHH!!! back to normal. After a rampage (he was still fighting when he got turned to stone), AAARRRGGHH!!! sees Toby and calms down, which makes everyone overjoyed to see him again. Just then, AAARRRGGHH!!! is summoned by the Fates and encounters the spirit of Kanjigar, who then goes into his body.

Kanjigar informs the team that since AAARRRGGHH!!! has died and now come back to life, he can use AAARRRGGHH!!!'s body to open up the Darklands portal since only a Trollhunter can use it. They take the Gyre to the park and Kanjigar manages to open up the portal. He then goes back to the beyond to rejoin the other Trollhunters, and leaves Draal to guard the portal, should anyone escape.

Reunion Claire, Toby, Blinky, and AAARRRGGHH!!! enter the Darklands and find themselves in a pretty tight spot as they try to cross a narrow bridge. Blinky accidentally drops a flare that Kanjigar gave them, so he and AAARRRGGHH!!! go down the bridge to retrieve it, but end up getting captured by Blinky's evil twin brother, Dictatious. After searching for a brief time, Toby and Claire find Jim all locked up. Before they can get him out, Gunmar's minions arrive and take Jim to battle Gunmar. Toby and Claire track Jim down, only to find that Nomura has been assisting him in escaping. The group manages to reunite and engages in a battle with Gunmar and his minions. Just when hope is lost, Draal arrives and manages to save them all at the last minute, and make it out of the bridge just in time. When they make it back to Earth, AAARRRGGHH!!! and Draal destroy the bridge to prevent any more disasters from occurring. Claire is overjoyed to see Jim once again and kisses him. They then head home, not knowing that Gunmar, Dictatious and some Gumm-Gumms have made their way to Earth as well.

Coming Home Now that Jim is out of the Darklands and back on Earth, the gang becomes concerned with Jim's strange and joyful behavior. That joy doesn't last long, however, as Vendel and Troll Tribunal have come to confront the Trollhunters for their actions.

Later that night, the Trollhunters find out that Blood Goblins have invaded Earth. Blinky informs them that Blood Goblins will stop at nothing to destroy the person they are hounding. Jim believes they are hounding him since he was the last person in the Darklands.

2021-05-11-19-18-23 They go back to Toby's house only to figure that Chompsky has been presumably killed by the goblins. It is here that Jim admits his mistakes and begins to feel pathetic and useless for putting his friends and the world in danger, but Blinky assures him that he has become more than the amulet or anyone has ever expected of him. Just then, AAARRRGGHH!!! picks up Chompsky's scent, confirming that he is still alive and well.

The gang follows Chompsky's sent back to the warehouse and finds out that the goblins are roasting him on an open fire. Using their skills and some fireworks that Toby found, they manage to rescue Chompsky, defeat the goblins, and witness Chompsky's "marriage."

Too Many Jims 2021-01-19-19-57-35 Claire invites Jim to a party at her house so he can prove himself to Claire's folks after he and Toby wrecked their house. When Jim uses a strange gemstone on his amulet, it creates some clones of him, each with their own solitary, distinct persona. The clones each cause trouble at the party; Romantic Jim is flirting with all of the guests (including Claire's mother), Grumpy Jim is complaining, Spanish Jim is speaking a language no one can understand, Chef Jim is cooking up chorizo, Arrogant Jim is being a jerk, Wimpy Jim is whining, and Hunter Jim wants to steal Jim's job.

Claire rounds up all the clones and takes them back to her room with the real Jim, only to find out that she's missing Hunter Jim. The real Jim manages to capture Hunter and sends him and the clones back into the amulet. Despite the parents hating Jim more, Claire kisses Jim and proclaims him as her boyfriend.

The Flour Sack Just Add Water- It has your nose One day in class, Coach Lawrence assigns the students to care for a flour sack as part of a parenting lesson. As fate would have it, Jim and Claire are paired up and are instantly proud parents to their sack.

After school, Jim and Claire meet up with Darci and Toby (who were also assigned together) at a malt shop to hang out. Toby promises Darci to take care of their "baby" while she is out at an event she is supposed to entertain.

As the Trollhunters walk home, Toby confesses that this is his favorite assignment since his parents were reported lost at sea when he was a baby. Just as they arrive home, a Gruesome attacks them and steals Toby's backpack with his rock collection. Blinky, Draal, and AAARRRGGHH!!! inform them that the Gruesome is probably on its way to the rock show at the museum. They give them a special rock, which will explode on impact when the Gruesome consumes it.

They arrive in the museum, only to find that Darci has arrived at the museum since the football game ended early. Toby tells Darci to take the sack home, but Darci decides to stay and watch the rock show. While Toby tries to keep Darci and the baby out of trouble, Jim and Claire search for the Gruesome. Jim accidentally runs into Steve (who is secretly on a mission with Eli to investigate the Trollhunters), and goes into the bathroom, not knowing that Steve has followed him.

Jim fights the Gruesome in the bathroom, but he cannot stop him. Jim accidentally destroys his sack and the flour starts to weaken the Gruesome. When the entire museum evacuates the building after Eli accidentally triggers an alert, Jim calls Toby and informs that he needs to sacrifice his "baby" in order to save the day. Toby reluctantly takes his flour sack and sacrifices it to the Gruesome (not knowing that it was really Steve and Eli's sack). Just before Toby can inform Darci of their predicament, Claire shows up with their flour sack.

In the end, Toby and Darci are the only students who passed the assignment, since all the other sacks got destroyed in some way. As the bell rings, Toby and Darci walk home hand-in-hand with Jim and Claire in tow and high hopes for their futures.

Saturday Detention One night, the Trollhunters are chasing some gnomes who have stolen Señor Uhl's truck. With the help of AAARRRGGHH!!! and Toby, they manage to capture the gnomes. Before the kids can get the truck back, Uhl shows up with the police and gives them Saturday detention.

Karl Uhl - Then all of you will have detention next week The very next day, they arrive at school, hoping to get a break from all the stress that has been going on lately, only to find that Steve, Eli, Mary, and Shannon will be sharing detention with them. The kids start to bicker while Uhl does some paperwork. When Uhl eats some of Toby's extra-spicy taco, he starts to get terribly gassy and heads to the bathroom. Knowing that he won't be back for a long time, the kids sneak out of the detention room and start to have some fun together, bonding along the way. In the gym, Shannon gives a heartfelt speech about being honest and spreading kindness, which everyone seems to start to ponder until Steve makes a snarky comment about Jim. Just then, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! arrive and warn Jim that Draal has been taken over by Gunmar's powers. To prevent everyone from finding out, Jim tells everyone that Uhl is heading back to class and tells them to go back to the room. However, Steve and Eli are not fooled, so Steve disguises himself as the school mascot to secretly find out what is really going on with Jim.

When the kids arrive back in the detention room, Uhl notices the damage done by the fight Jim had with the possessed Draal. Uhl questions Eli on what could have possibly happened, to which the boy covers up by claiming it was the school rivals who caused the damage, to which Uhl easily buys.

Another destiny 2021-05-11-22-31-45 After Jim, Claire, and Toby entered the trollmarket, Queen Userna deported Jim for freeing gunmar from the darklands .Jim was very upset that the amulet picked him up and he got here, and at that moment, ankar sends him to the past. That was exactly where the trollhunters story began and everything went back to the past. Jim wanted to talk to Claire and explain everything that had happened to him, but Claire did not believe him and walked away.

Claire was friends with Steve at that time and even performed Romeo and Juliet with Steve and kissed him. Jim was very upset that this had happened, so he goes to find Strickler after finding Killahead in the museum. After a bit of fighting, Strickler believed him.

But it was too late to save the world and they could not do anything After they went to the museum, they encountered Gunmar and Jim entered the museum alone After losing sight of his friends and not being able to do anything, he becomes frustrated At that moment, Merlin appears and tells Jim that he was not chosen wrong After leaving the museum and attacking gunmar, he returns to the present and he is very happy to see his friends Claire and Toby again. At this moment, Queen Userna appears And gave him the opportunity to choose between destroying the amulet and freeing himself or being exiled in the depths of darkness. But Jim keeps the amulet and prepares to go into exile.

Gunmar's Takeover When the Trollhunters arrive at Trollmarket, they find the Troll Tribunal putting Jim on trial for his actions. When they find out that Jim is actually being prosecuted for allegedly releasing Gunmar, Claire and Blinky decide to find out who could be truly responsible for Gunmar's release. While Toby and AAARRRGGHH!!! stall for time, Claire and Blinky decide to use the time to look over Trollmarket to find out who the true mastermind could be. Blinky and Claire go to RotGut's shop to interrogate them. While Claire's "bad cop" performance flops, Blinky does a more convincing job. They claim that a guy named "Krax" has been buying out their entire stock of Gaggletacks. Blinky and Claire realize that this person might be the mole who is helping the Changelings. They go to Krax's place and find the supply of Gaggletacks. When Krax arrives, Blinky tries to interrogate him, but he accidentally blows him up. They get back to the trial, but Ursuna (who has killed Vendel) instantly finds Jim guilty and sentences him to exile in the abyss. The gang chases after Jim, and he is thrown into the abyss, where he becomes face-to-face with some sort of person who looks like himself. Jim luckily survives and manages to escape, due to his human status. The Trollhunters then find out that Ursuna is actually behind all of this and had actually killed Vendel.

2021-05-11-23-02-18 They then go back to the Janus Order, where Gunmar is planning his invasion, thinking that Jim is dead. When they start to attack, Gunmar destroys the entire Janus Order and he invades Trollmarket to absorb the Heartstone's power and do something else. The Trollhunters get back to Trollmarket and interrogate Dictatious into revealing what he knows. After spinning him around for some time, Dictatious reveals that since Gunmar's army of Gumm-Gumms is stuck in the Darklands, he is going to brainwash all of Trollmarket and make them his new army. With the help of the Creepslayerz, the Trollhunters manage to help the trolls escape to safety. When Gunmar and his minions start getting close to the gang and the rest of the trolls, Claire uses all the power in her staff to conjure up a portal big enough for the entire escapees to make it to Earth and the streak on Claire's hair turns white. Later that night, Claire begins sleepwalking as a result of the Shadow Staff's power and becomes under the control of Morgan le Fey, the evil witch.

Trollhunters (Part Three) The Control of Morgana 2021-05-11-23-22-06 While Jim and Blinky try to help the trolls find a new home, Claire starts to get sick and having some weird vibes in her sleep. Morgana's powers cause her to sleepwalk and deliver things to her without even knowing it. While she is sleeping, Morgana causes her to steal the signs and cause various Gumm-Gumms to attack the warehouse where the trolls were taking refuge.

The next day at school, Mary takes Claire to meet Douxie, a visiting student who is handing out flyers for the Battle of the Bands at the end of the school year. He starts flirting with Claire (much to Jim's jealousy) and advises her, Mary, and Darci to compete in the contest. The girls decide to enter as a cover band called, "Mama Skull", a variant of their favorite band, "Papa Skull."

Soon enough, Claire starts getting sicker and all worn out, so she decides to stay home for the day while Jim, Toby, Eli, and Steve have an adventure at school. At Morgana's Cave, she made Claire deliver the stone head of the late Angor Rot to Gunmar when he arrives for information on how to bring forth the Eternal Night.

The very next day, Claire wakes up feeling one hundred percent better. While she is getting ready for the day, Enrique informs her of her sleepwalking, but Claire brushes it off and doesn't listen. She arrives at school, where she meets up with Darci, who proposes that she and Darci go on a double date with the guys to celebrate.

That night in Mr. Benoit, Jim tries to seat Claire, but only ends up making her fall down instead. While Jim tries to talk to Claire, Toby keeps kicking Jim and ruining them. Just then, Douxie arrives as their waiter (much to Jim's anger) and proceeds to flirt with both Darci and Claire. When Claire begins to feel dizzy, she goes to the bathroom to clear her head. In the bathroom, Claire finds out that she has been taken over by Morgana, and she plots on using Claire to get the staff back and destroy Jim. Morgana emerges from the mirror in her flame form and starts to strengthen her control over the girl. Morgana flies into Claire's body and takes full control of her body and mind, trapping the real Claire in the Shadow Realm.

When Jim and Claire go back to the Nunez residence, Claire starts to go crazy and try to attack Jim. Luckily, Enrique stops her and informs the Trollhunter of Morgana's control over Claire.

2021-05-11-23-46-13 Later that night, Jim, Toby, Blinky, and Strickler chain Morgana to a chair and try to think of a way to get the witch out of Claire. Strickler tells the boys that Claire's soul is trapped in the Shadow Realm and gives them an incantation to find it. If they recite an incantation in reverse after finding Claire, they'll escape. Jim and Toby enter the Shadow Realm, where they find Claire's spirit frantically trying to finish homework and tend to an invisible Enrique. Jim and Toby try to communicate with her, but she cannot hear nor see them. However, she does notice what they do to her stuff. The boys come up with the idea of writing down their presence on a piece of paper to warn her. They continue to do some things in her room until she finally sees them. Claire asks the boys what is going on and Toby explains everything, which Claire furious at Morgana. Holding onto Claire's stuffed bunny, they fly back to the portal, but the portal closes when Morgana throws the staff into it. The kids fly up to get it, but Morgana is getting too strong. Using all her strength, Claire manages to overpower Morgana and steal the staff back. Claire regains control of her body and even manages to pick up a few of Morgana's abilities.

The Truth Comes Out Again 2021-01-21-19-11-59 When Barbara's memory comes back, she invites Claire's folks and Toby's Nana over for a little confrontation with the kids. Barbara explains to the adults about the secret kingdom of trolls and the kids' solemn duties to protect them and fight evil, but naturally, they don't believe her and assume she is on drugs. Not wanting to be in more trouble than they already are, the kids try to pretend that Barbara's crazy and doesn't know what she is talking about. Barbara shows them the weapons, but they assume that Jim stole them from the museum, since he and Toby got arrested from there. Quickly thinking, Claire claims these weapons are for LARPing, which Toby goes along with.

Just then, Blinky arrives and takes Jim downstairs to the basement to warn them of AAARRRGGHH!!!'s predicament. Barbara gets fed up and confronts Jim on what he has done, in which Jim once again, admits the truth. Barbara explains to Jim how it's the parents' job to know when or if their kids are in danger, regardless of what happens. She also points out what he's going to tell Claire and Toby's folks if they die for real. Realizing that he was wrong, Jim apologizes and agrees to tell the truth. Jim then reintroduces Barbara to Blinky and Dictatious.

The Lakes go back upstairs in the middle of an argument. Knowing they cannot keep lying forever, Jim, Claire, and Toby reveal their Trollhunter identities. When the goblins arrive to attack the reformed Dictatious, the Trollhunters manage to defeat the goblins with help from their parents. After getting trapped in the Shadow Realm for a short amount of time, Claire manages to find a way to Merlin's tomb. They decide to go in hopes that they can get his help to defeat Morgana.

Quest to Merlin's Tomb While debating on the amulet, Claire describes her vision to her friends: that he saw Merlin creating the Amulet of Daylight and then placed a jewel inside, which held a map to his tomb within. When Jim wonders if it was really Merlin alone making the amulet, Blinky voices disdain of destroying the sacred amulet. Claire insists that destroying the amulet will find Merlin's tomb and the Staff of Avalon, before Dictatious assists her by claiming that the amulet and the staff are both connected through Merlin's magic. Jim later decides that he probably doesn't have to destroy his amulet, since Gunmar has AAARRRGGHH!!! captive and could be used as an emotional anchor.

2021-05-12-10-57-01 After packing up their things, the kids say goodbye to their parents and promise to contact them to let them know if they're okay. They go to Trollmarket and find out that AAARRRGGHH!!! has been trapped inside of a stasis trap with Dwärkstones. Jim then decides to have Toby drop his hammer in order to drop into the room below, although Blinky theorizes that the explosion will probably get them killed, but Toby is willing to take the risk. Toby smashes the hammer and they fall into the room below. They find an ancient gyre and realize that the blue stone inside of the amulet is the key to powering the gyre. Knowing the risk of destroying the amulet, Jim smashes it to smithereens and places the stone in its proper place, which unlocks the map to Merlin's tomb.

The gyre takes them to the tomb, which is hidden behind a waterfall that is impervious to magic. They then realize that Gunmar and Draal are here and with Draal being free from his brainwashing, they can rescue him. They go inside and find Merlin's old workshop. Toby then presses on a stone, which lights up the entire workshop and makes it look brand new. Jim theorizes that maybe the button somehow makes things look like the past. Claire finds a bag of seeds and decides to use the seed to grow a tree that will reach to the next part of the tomb.

As soon as the gang climbs up, they find a timeline depicting Merlin and the Staff of Avalon, his history with Morgana, and how he formed the Trollhunters. They also see that it also continues into the present, which begins a battle with Angor Rot. They escape from Angor and into a cavern filled with giant crystals. Jim carries Draal's mechanical arm and finds Draal trapped between some crystals. Draal feels guilty about being hypnotized and believes that he had let everyone down. Jim assures him that this wasn't his fault and he is better than he thinks. Just then, Angor arrives into the cavern and begins chasing after both Jim and Draal. Despite trying to put up a good fight, Gunmar then manages to strike Draal with his staff and turn him to stone, throwing him to the ground (in the same manner that his father was killed), much to everyone's horror. As soon as the cave starts collapsing, Gunmar then leaves Angor behind (who is dangling from one of the crystals).

Claire - Why were you sleeping in the first place The gang then goes over to Merlin's tomb, where they find the ancient wizard sleeping and covered in spider webs. Jim uses the amulet to wake Merlin up, which then succeeds. Merlin stretches his joints and asks them where his staff might be. Jim explains that Gunmar took it and it fills Merlin with doubt. Merlin explains Jim that he foresaw their arrival because he can see the future and he went into comatose because of the Battle of Killahead Bridge. Merlin then shows them shadows of the Killahead Bridge battle. He takes them to where he fought Morgana and explains to them that she is the one who conjured up the Eternal Night and the only way to stop her was for Merlin to forsake all of his magic as possible. Thanks to Gunmar, she is probably going to escape from her prison and take vengeance. When they get back, they find out that the cave is going to flood them and the only way is to use the amulet. Merlin manages to repair the amulet and they escape the cave with their lives.

Meeting Aja and Krel Merlin tells the Trollhunters he is making some special projects, but in order to do that, he will need certain ingredients from different locations.

Jim then shows up with two new students, Aja and Krel Tarron. Señor Uhl wants Jim to show them around the town if he wants to make up for his many absent days. Jim takes Aja and Krel to Claire and Toby, who reluctantly agree to include them in their Trollhunting mission for Merlin.

2021-05-12-11-20-35 They take them to the wrecked Janus Order, which they pass off as a "Teen Center." While they search for Changeling remains, Krel goes into the control room and starts to use the system to play music and show off his dancing skills. When Jim turns the music off, some footage of AAARRRGGHH!!! and Jim fighting Gunmar starts playing on the monitors, which he instantly turns off. The Trollhunters claim it to be a movie and decide to take the siblings to see Claire's house, while Krel takes something he brought out of the control panel.

Jim and Toby go to the roof to collect some lightning in a jar, so Aja and Krel decide to use their vast intergalactic knowledge to help them do it. Krel makes a capacitor from some parts of the microwave to hold the lightning in, and Aja hacks into Arcadia's power grid to make lightning appear in fifteen minutes. Using Jim's sword, they manage to capture the lightning and put it in the jar. The siblings then bid their friends goodbye and go home.

The Trollhunters go back to Jim's house, where they see that Merlin has finished working on his new project: armor for Toby and Claire. Blinky asks Merlin what is going on, to which Merlin replies that it's time to go to war once he releases Morgana and wants to kill her before she has a chance to cause the Eternal Night.

Searching for Jim Merlin explains that Jim has the choice to stop Gunmar and Morgana. While Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!! go to recruit as many people as they can, Jim is left to decide whether or not to start the war. Just then, Nomura arrives and informs the Trollhunters that Gunmar has Strickler and Barbara. Toby, Claire, and Nomura go to get Barbara and Strickler back, while Jim and Merlin stay behind.

The Eternal Night War TEK-P1 - Toby - This is happening The Eternal Night has struck and the Trollhunters must prepare for Morgana's attack on the human world. Merlin decides that he and AAARRRGGHH!!! will go down to Trollmarket and try to stop Morgana, while the rest will handle the Gumm-Gumms. Jim stays behind in his house so he won't burn out in the sun.

Claire and Toby go to the Battle of the Bands to warn everybody about impending doom, but nobody takes them seriously and believe it's part of a song. Just then, the Gumm-Gumms strike and start attacking the city. The Trollhunters and the Trolls unite and begin fighting back while getting the citizens of Arcadia to safety.

The Trollhunters begin battling the Gumm Gumms and Jim eventually manages to defeat Morgana with the newly reformed Angor Rot. Unfortunately, he ends up getting seriously hurt and the others rush to him. Claire tearfully recites part of their dialogue from the school play, declaring her true love for him. When Jim quietly finishes, everyone is overjoyed to find out he’s alive.

Leaving Arcadia 2021-05-12-12-15-03 With Morgana gone and the war over, Trollmarket has been destroyed and now, the citizens of Trollmarket must find a new home in New Jersey. Claire decides to join Jim, Merlin, and the trolls while Toby and AAARRRGGHH!!! decide to stay behind to protect Arcadia. She bids her family a tearful goodbye and heads off into a new chapter in their lives.

3Below (Part One) Mind Over Matter Claire can be heard when Aja uses a mind reader to locate the alien imposter. She is heard thinking in exasperation that NotEnrique used her account to order socks again.

Beetle Invasion Claire calls Mary during the Skelteg invasion.

The Time Loop One day, a trickster troll named Porgon goes on the loose and the Trollhunters start to track him down. Porgon finds a part from Aja and Krel's ship and uses it to vanish. Blinky assumes that it's because he has somehow found a way to control time and space.

The next day, the kids go to the science fair to see if Porgon got there. Jim bumps into Aja and introduces himself. Just then, Porgon arrives and starts attacking the fair. Before Jim can activate his armor, Aja uses her shield to block Porgon's attacks, causing them to be protected when Porgon sends everybody back to earlier.

D'AV Snapshot (150) Aja goes back to the science fair and finds herself experiencing the same day. Jim then informs Aja about how Porgon is apparently using the Akridion stick and the troll magic to cause a time loop. Aja then reveals her true form to Jim when explaining the Akiridion stick. They are sent to back to Jim's house from earlier and the two inform each other of their ambitions. Aja wants to stop Porgon right away, but Jim stops her and calls the other Trollhunters for assistance.

Both teams meet in the woods, where both of their mentors begin to have a bit of a tiff. They go inside the museum to stop Porgon, but Aja's impulsiveness only causes them to fail again. They go back through the time loop and have a meeting at Aja and Krel's house to discuss how they are going to plan their attack on Porgon. The teams conclude that combining the Dekyon Charger and his Troll magic, he is able to control time and space itself, but if he combines it with the Daxial Array as well, time could be destroyed. Jim tries to formulate a plan, but being impatient, Aja goes off on her own. Naturally, she fails again and is sent back through the time loop.

When she goes back to the house, the others call Aja out on her recklessness. Aja snaps about how determined she is to become a warrior and to defeat the bounty hunters who are out to kill her. Varvatos explains to Aja that all the training in the world cannot prevent accidents or mistakes, there will be consequences no matter what, while Jim tells Aja that you need to be patient and all the help you can get when facing a life-or-death opponent. Aja ponders this and reluctantly agrees.

The gang decides to put magic stones on the students' volcanoes to distract Porgon while stealing the charger. When they cause the volcanoes to spew out real lava, they manage to defeat Porgon and retrieve the charger. Unfortunately, that also means that they have been exposed to the public. Krel decides to destroy the charger, but that also means the events and their memories will be erased. After some reluctance, Krel destroys the charger and everything is reversed.

"Uncle Marlin" Darci mentions that Claire went with Jim and Toby to visit Toby's "Uncle Marlin". She is briefly seen in Merlin's Tomb when Jim uses his sword to redirect the rushing water.

Toby asks them where Jim is, and Blinky and Claire take the others to where Jim is encased in stone with a shard in his chest. Blinky explains that they were ambushed by some ancient, dark warrior, an unstoppable knight clad in green, who struck Jim down. Merlin confirms it’s the same knight they saw in the bookstore. The onyx shard in Jim’s chest is working its way toward the boy's heart, so he's in stasis to stall is progress. Toby wants to attack the Green Knight. Merlin doesn’t know who he is, but recalls that he said the name Morgana. He doesn’t appear to know they banished her to the Shadow Realm and he bore the emblem of Camelot. (Claire worries she wish had her shadow staff to Save Jim).

Merlin leads them to another area and explains about King Arthur sought to wipe out magic, but Merlin put a few spell casters under his protection to save them, including Douxie and Morgana. Morgana was the finest student he ever taught until she tried to kill him. Merlin created the amulet and imprisoned Morgana at the Battle of Killahead Bridge. The Green Knight was born of dark magic, but Merlin has no memory of him or his connection to Morgana.

The leading knight takes of his helmet, and Steve is instantly taken in by his appearance. At that moment, Jim's stasis shell breaks and he gets up. The knights see him and are angered, saying that trolls should be living only on their side of the forest. They then tie them up and take them to King Arthur.

At Arthur's court, the knights tell him that a troll has walked into their grounds. They then display Jim. Enraged, Arthur orders for him to be brought into the sunlight and killed. At that moment, Claire, angered, releases her Shadow Magic. Arthur is shocked at seeing another sorceress in his court, and a Dark one at that. Fortunately, Arthur's sister Morgana intervenes. Arthur finally calms down and asks the trio their names. Claire says that she is Claire, from the House of Nunez. Morgana then takes her on as her handmaiden, after having noticed Claire's Shadow powers.

Descripción física

Claire era muy especial para mí, porque quería una chica latina que fuera fuerte, pero que también estuviera enamorada de la poesía y el teatro, y que fuera muy artística. Creo que muchas veces tienes a la chica marimacho que es la heroína, o tienes a la chica muy femenina que termina siendo solo alguien a quien rescatar. Y yo quería que ella no fuera ninguna de esas dos cosas. — Guillermo del Toro

Claire ha sido descrita como una joven muy linda, hermosa y bastante atractiva, incluso por el propio Merlin.

Es de estatura media y posee una constitución delgada y atlética. Es una joven latina de piel clara con un cálido tono dorado y ligeras pecas distribuidas sobre la parte superior de las mejillas y el puente de la nariz (Escala Fitzpatrick Tipo III). Tiene ojos de color marrón oscuro y cabello negro, que bajo determinadas condiciones de luz puede verse como un castaño muy oscuro. Durante gran parte de la historia lo lleva recogido en un moño, y anteriormente presentaba un mechón azul que, tras ser corrompida por el Bastón de las Sombras, cambió a un tono blanco plateado. En Wizards, ese mechón blanco cubre por completo todo su flequillo y comienza a llevar el cabello recogido en un moño bajo. Posteriormente se revela en Rise of the Titans que mide aproximadamente 165 cm (5 pies y 5 pulgadas), siendo cerca de una pulgada más baja que Jim.

Durante la mayor parte de Trollhunters, viste un jersey ajustado de cuello alto color morado claro con un estampado de una calavera rosa oscura y la palabra «HAMLET» en el pecho. Encima lleva una chaqueta corta de color morado oscuro, una falda azul corta, leggings grises ajustados y botines negros de tacón bajo. Suele adornar su cabello con numerosas horquillas de colores y siempre lleva las uñas pintadas de rosa oscuro. Para la época de Wizards deja de utilizar las horquillas y ya no lleva las uñas pintadas.

Cuando utiliza una cantidad intensa e incontrolada de magia de las sombras, sus ojos se vuelven completamente negros, permaneciendo visibles únicamente sus iris y pupilas con un resplandor púrpura oscuro. Cuando mantiene su magia bajo control, sus iris adquieren un tono violeta. Mientras está bajo el dominio de Morgana, sus ojos presentan un negro absoluto con un centro amarillo brillante.

En el episodio «In Good Hands», Merlin le forja su propia armadura, diseñada para adaptarse a su figura más estilizada. Se trata de una armadura femenina de caballera de color púrpura que incluye peto, hombreras, brazales, protecciones para los muslos, rodilleras, grebas y sabatones, todo ello decorado con detalles morados. Debajo lleva una capa interior de color púrpura oscuro. En las manos utiliza anillos con puntas en forma de garras, similares a los de Morgana, y un casco púrpura que cubre completamente su cabello, dejando el rostro mucho más expuesto que el casco de Morgana. En el centro del peto luce un cristal en forma de diamante de color lila, semejante al de Merlin. En Wizards, tras ser emboscada por el Caballero Verde, su armadura aparece visiblemente chamuscada y marcada por numerosos golpes.

Durante su estancia en Camelot, Claire viste un sencillo vestido medieval de doncella de color púrpura.

El color característico de la magia de Claire es una combinación de violeta intenso y negro.

En determinadas etapas también presenta un flequillo amplio completamente cubierto por el mechón blanco.

Sus cejas son finas, bien definidas y de color negro intenso, con un arco suave sobre los ojos. Sus ojos son grandes, separados entre sí y de forma almendrada. Normalmente sus iris son de un marrón profundo y sus pupilas negras, pequeñas y definidas, otorgándole una expresión atenta y decidida. Cuando emplea su magia de las sombras, sus iris pueden adoptar un intenso tono violeta, mientras que durante un uso descontrolado los ojos se vuelven completamente negros con iris y pupilas brillando en púrpura oscuro. Bajo la influencia de Morgana, sus ojos permanecen totalmente negros con un centro amarillo luminoso. La línea superior de las pestañas está discretamente marcada y los párpados presentan un contorno natural.

Su nariz es pequeña y recta, con una punta suavemente redondeada y perfectamente proporcionada con el resto de sus facciones. Sus labios poseen un grosor medio y un tono rosado natural.

Sus accesorios suelen ser discretos. Durante gran parte de Trollhunters utiliza numerosas horquillas de colores en el cabello y lleva las uñas pintadas de rosa oscuro.

A lo largo de la serie, descubre su fuerza, se convierte en socia y protectora de ambos, siendo clave para ganar la guerra entre el bien y el mal. Christina Steinberg, Productora Ejecutiva

Para Wizards, Claire ha madurado, pero tras la herida fatal de Jim por el Caballero Verde, se culpa por no poder ayudarlo.

Claire Nuñez/Quotes

Trollhunters "You... speak Spanish?" "Do you like Shakespeare?" "The school play. We're...having trouble getting boys for audition." "John?" "And here I thought you didn't like Shakespeare," "That costume is incredible. Did you make it?" "Heh, you're funny." "I think that's your cue. Break a leg!" "Jim, that was remarkable!" "Ehehe, that's acting!" "You okay?" "You're gonna need to be a bit more convincing if you're gonna play Romeo." "I know we don't know each other all that well. But, we're gonna be spending a lot of time together. So..." "Wherefore art thou, Romeo?" "Leave him alone, Steve!" "And I was looking for my scene partner at last night's rehearsal." "I don't know what you've got going on, but this play is pretty important to me. My family's coming, and if you make me look like an idiot out there..." "Just be there tomorrow." "And.. by the way, I know Steve is a jerk. But there are better ways to finish a fight than punching someone in the face." "Hey, so I've gotta ask. If you weren't going to show up for rehearsals, why even try out?" "Oh Romeo, Romeo? Wherefore art thou, Romeo?" "Apology accepted. You were a jerk." "What about you? What's calling you Jim Lake Jr.?" "My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep. The more I give to thee, The more I have, for both are infinite." "Doesn't matter. Ms. Janeth us on the warpath for you. I'd watch out." "Hey. I see you've survived Ms. Janeth's Math class of doom." "Promoting Steve to Romeo wasn't your idea. And honestly, I'd rather be on stage with you. even if you are a total flake. Ehehe, see you at six?" "This was never a costume." "Oh. Well, that would explain the flying horseshoes. So not gonna ask." "Toby, look at us. We are useless!" "Fudgeknuckle." "I am not a man!" "Don't let Jim ever say we never did anything for him." "Don't worry Tobes! You have a girl to protect you!" "Ugh, useless!... or not." "That's horrible! Why didn't I think of that name?" "Did you just blow up our child?" "Jim, you risked everything to save my brother because it was right. Now it's my turn." "If we do nothing we're all dead! You would do the same, you did do the same!" "You saved my brother! Let me save you!" "Tell my parents I love 'em." "Did we die?!" "Holy shishkebab! I'm dead!" Azaazauth-Kinekh-Thoon! "You don't control me!" "It's not yours anymore. I made it mine. And now I'm taking it back!" "Okay, Soozy Snooze! It's you and I!" "I could add a few more names to that list." "Please Jim, don't run away! Whatever you are...I love you." "Hey M! You and I have some unfinished business!" "Die, witch!"

3Below "Trust the girl, Jim!" "I have a million questions."

Wizards Oh, hi Steve. "What's happening?!" "Just because you're scared of him doesn't mean he shouldn't exist!" "If you give in to fear, than that is failing." "You get them home Trollhunter. I'll keep the knights busy and find you later!" "I lost my brother once. You don't appreciate them till they're gone." "I don't wanna become her!" "Fear won't control me!" "Let go of the fear." "Ugh, boy's club." "Hey! That's my boyfriend you're operating on!" "At least we're united. We'll get through this...together." "Thought you could use a reminder of home...of better times...and us." "I wanted to be ready for whatever comes next. I'm not losing you again." "Can't we stay longer? Like, forever?" "We're getting through this...together!" "Hey! Hands off my teacher!" "Already seen it! You don't win! See you in 900 years!" "Well...I think we just saved history." "I'd date you for a hundred lifetimes, Jim Lake." "Don't you talk to me about Jim!" "Come on! This is our friend we're talking about! Your the Trollhunter! You want us to just forget about him! No way!" "This isn't you. You're Jim Lake Jr, the Trollhunter! Please! You said we'd always find a way to save each other! I love you! We belong together!" "Morgana! You just won't die will you?" "I won't give up on you Max. I'll find a way." "Maybe we should say a few words?" "We'll get through this, together. We need you, Doux, now more than ever. The world, our friends are in danger." "What're you going to do, get eaten again?" "I won't accept that. If we can't find his soul in this world, I'll find it in another. I'm going into the Shadow Realm." "I can't abandon him. Jim was turned by dark magic. So, I'll save him with my own." "You here for a fight? Whatever the Order's planning, I won't let you win!" "I don't believe it! You're always up to something!" "Jim, I know there's still a piece of you in there." "Remember our first date? Or that night after the dance? We've been through so much together. I am so sorry. For so long I felt guilty that I wasn't strong enough to save you in the woods. But I've fought across time and space to bring you back. It can't all have been for nothing. I'll always love you!" "Don't give up! We're going to make it through this, together!" "You're not taking her!" "He calls you a beast, but I see you. I see you in there, Jim." "Jim Lake Jr, I know you can hear me! I know you're still in there!" "I promised I'd come back for you! Now fight it Jim!" "I love you Jim. We all do. Please..."

Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans "You try opening a shadow portal on a subway going 55 miles an hour." Claire: "Sorry, but you’re going to find that none of us will be talking to you." Toby: [hearty laugh] "Okay, okay, so check this out. Ready? There are trolls and wizards and aliens, and the aliens… have robots." Claire: "Toby said all that?" Claire: "You're only human." Jim: "Now." Claire: "And that's enough for me." Krel: "Heh, yes. Over 3,000 somethings in North America alone." Claire: "Or I can lock on to Nari and portal us there. I can do that, y’know." "Nice Round Table speech back there." Jim: "My mother is finally happy, but the world’s about to end. And I can’t do anything to stop it." Claire: "But we can." Jim: "What if I…? What if I never see you again?" Claire: "I will always be here…" [touches Jim's temple] "...and here." [touches Jim's heart] "Thanks for the assist, Mr. Charlemagne, but didn't your son tell you I could've used my magic to shorten the trip?" Blinky: "Descriptions of this place hardly do it justice." Claire: "Holy... frijole." Blinky: "Indeed. 'Holy frijole' will have to suffice." Claire: "Not for long. I know how to get you there." Jim: "No, Claire, the Titan is too big." Douxie: "Jim's right." Claire: "I can do this. One. More. Time!" Jim: "The configuration... is us." Claire: "The nine of us!" Douxie: "We can pull Excalibur together!" Jim: "'Destiny is a gift.'" Blinky: "Our loved ones gave their lives, but we are here in this very moment of quiet desperation." Claire: "And we've learned that what feels like a burden pushing down on our shoulders..." Douxie: "Is actually a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights!" Krel: "Wait, are you guys doing that 'hero speech' thing? I love the 'hero speech' thing!" Aja: "Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor..." Krel: "That to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what makes us heroes!" AAARRRGGHH!!!: "Don't think." Everyone: "Become!" Claire: "He's alone, no armor. We need to help him." Douxie: "Can you shadow portal us back?" Claire: "I tried. I'm spent. Besides, Bellroc's magic is too strong." Claire: [sobs] "Don't give up on me. Whatever happens... don't stop trying until I love you." Jim: "If we're meant to be, I will always be here…" [touches Claire's temple] "...and here." [touches Claire's heart] Jim: "So, uh, the school play, heh, I hear they're looking for people." Claire: "Have at it, Romeo."

Claire Nuñez/Relationships A list of Claire Nuñez's relationships with certain characters throughout the franchise.

Romances Jim Lake Jr. Remember our first date? Or that night after the dance? We've been through so much together. I am so sorry. For so long I felt guilty that I wasn't strong enough to save you in the woods. But I've fought across time and space to bring you back. It can't all have been for nothing. I'll always love you! Claire emotionally connecting with Jim's soul in the Shadow Realm

Jlaire At first, Jim merely crushed on her from afar and she didn't know he existed until he attempted to woo her with quickly learned Spanish and she invited him to audition for the school play, Romeo and Juliet. Although he didn't actually want to act, he auditioned to get closer to Claire (along with keeping his new Trollhunter status on a low profile). However, due to his tardiness and absence from several rehearsals, their relationship begins to turn sour. After a last-minute attempt to win back her trust, he agrees to babysit her little brother, Enrique, who is actually NotEnrique. After causing a mess in her house, she says she never wants to talk to him again. Before he and Draal have their to-the-death rematch, he leaves her a letter, confessing all of his feelings and what has been going on with him. She forgives him, thinking it's metaphorical, but then grows suspicious and, after NotEnrique endangers her and she learns the truth about his new double life situation, the two grow closer as she joins in on the adventures, and prepare to go to the Spring Fling together. She also attempts to aid and comfort Jim when being Trollhunter, its grave responsibilities and cost start to become too much for him. They ultimately decide to skip the Fling, and instead dance near a cliff overlooking the city, almost kissing. Jim is more than determined to rescue Enrique and help Claire.

During Part Two, Claire is determined to rescue Jim from the Darklands after he saved Enrique first. After everyone manages to get him back, Claire hugs him saying that she missed him before they both share a kiss (though she was clearly distraught that he went into the Darklands without them). After an unconventional barbecue at her parents' house, Claire finally calls Jim her boyfriend and says that she does not care that her parents disapprove of it and giving him a sweet kiss on the cheek, officially becoming a couple.

During Part Three, Jim is shown to be jealous of Claire's apparent attraction to Douxie and was very concerned when Claire came down with a mysterious cold. When Jim and Toby went into the Shadow Realm to rescue her soul, they helped her fight the witch out of her body and restore her free will. After Jim became a half-troll, Jim wondered if Claire would still want to date him despite his new looks. She even decides to stay with Jim and join him on his journey to find a new Heartstone in New Jersey, proving her undying loyalty to him.

In Wizards, the two are still going strong, but Claire now carries around deep regret and feels as though she failed to protect Jim after he is severely injured by the Green Knight. She becomes fearlessly protective of him and goes to any length to keep him safe during their time in the 12th century. After the two are separated for a period of time they are reunited but she is unaware of the fact that Jim will die when he returns to the present. The two spend their last moment of peace before the start of the war by having a picnic together in later-to-be Arcadia Oaks. After Jim becomes a full troll, Claire refuses to give up on Jim and knows he will come back to her. After many failed attempts to reach him, he finally snaps back to himself and saves her before he is turned to stone. Claire is horrified and heartbroken, breaking down into tears over his statue before it crumbles and a human Jim comes out from the rumbles. She runs into his arms and the two embrace.

Altogether, Claire is shown to be more confident in the relationship than Jim. Her love for him is shown to be perseverant as she continues to date him even though her parents hate him for most of Trollhunters. She has also proven upon several occasions that she loves him unconditionally as she continues to love him equally after he becomes a half troll and even after he becomes a full troll.

Jim loves Claire just as much, but he loves her uncertainly and not so securely.

Family Ophelia and Javier Nuñez It would appear that Claire’s relationship with her parents seems strained since her mother seems to care more about her image and career as a councilwoman than paying attention to her own family. Claire even claims that her mother can’t even remember her daughter’s own birthday without checking her schedule. It is also hinted that Claire may be pushed too far by them since Claire claims they'd freak out if she "got a B."

When Javier and Ophelia find out about Claire's secret life, they start to become more concerned for her safety. However, they start to trust Claire more and begin to realize that she doesn’t want to be molded into some perfect daughter, making their relationship start to grow. At first, they were reluctant to let Claire graduate early and live with Jim in New Jersey, but they agreed anyway (only if they came back soon).

Enrique Nuñez Claire deeply loves her baby brother, acting more like a mother than a sister to him since their parents almost always work late. She becomes visibly distraught and dismayed when she learns that her real brother has been kidnapped and taken into the Darklands, replaced by a changeling nicknamed NotEnrique. As revealed in "Where Is My Mind?", her biggest fear is losing Enrique and failing to keep him safe.

After Jim saves Enrique from the Darklands, Claire is greatly relieved and happy to have her real brother back, unharmed. She later goes into the Darklands to rescue Jim to pay off her debt.

NotEnrique Ever since Claire discovered that her brother had been stolen and replaced with NotEnrique, they both share a rocky relationship. Although shown to argue, they are rather close and he even showed Claire that her real brother is safe. They act much like real brothers and sisters. As the series progresses this bond is shown to grow stronger to the point when he begins referring to Claire as Sis, and should she be harmed he makes statements such as, "Keep your hands off my sister!"

In Part Three, NotEnrique grows very concerned about Claire's odd behavior when she starts getting taken over by Morgana's power.

Friends/Allies Douxie Casperan Douxie is a good friend of Claire. In Trollhunters, Claire seemed rather bashful when she meets him in person and admires his band. He also suggests that she and her friends should participate in the Battle of the Bands. She even giggles at his witty comments and blushes from his charming looks (much to Jim's jealousy).

However, Claire's heart belongs to Jim and the two are nothing more than friends. Douxie is even shown to support her relationship with Jim and wants the two to be happy.

In Wizards Claire was surprised to find out that Douxie is over 900 years old. Their relationship developed further in her become his apprentice to help her develop her shadow magic. Thanks to his help, Claire was able to overcome her fear of her gifts and use it help her friends. They act like Brother and Sister they do take jabs at each other. Douxie personally sees her as a sister he never had.

Mary Wang and Darci Scott Mary Wang and Darci Scott are Claire's close friends and they are often seen hanging out together. They even made their own band. They both are fully supportive of her and Jim getting together. As the series goes on, they become more observant of Claire acting suspicious and tries to figure out what she won't tell them. Mary assumes that Claire is dating a college guy, and uses that as a cover-up.

It is unknown how they felt when Claire decided to travel with Jim and the other trolls to New Jersey, but they were most likely heartbroken.

Toby Domzalski Originally, Claire was more distant and hostile towards Toby and often forgot his name, no matter how many times he told her.

When Claire became a Trollhunter, Toby started to get more envious of Claire and started to compete with her for the role of Jim's sidekick. However, Claire assured him that she wouldn't come between Toby and Jim. Since then, they've started to get along better, though Claire still often got annoyed with Toby's harebrained schemes.

They both become very good friends and teammates. While Jim was venturing in Darklands alone, Claire and Toby both cover his personal life and trollhunting missions until they both plan to rescue Jim together.

Blinky Galadrigal Claire and Blinky are very close friends and teammates in their battle against evil. They both like to help in solving mysteries and hide puzzles to find the weaknesses of their enemies like with Gumnar's Triumbric Stones to finally eliminate him as a threat.

AAARRRGGHH!!! Claire and AAARRGGHH!! are very close friends and teammates in their battle against evil. When AAARRGGHH!! was turned into stone by Angor Rot's poison she was extremely sad by his loss. After the resurrection of AAARRRGGHH!! she was happy in seeing him return.

Steve Palchuk At first, Claire seemed to acknowledge that Steve was a jerk, even after he shoved her away when she tries to defend Jim. After he becomes Jim's understudy, she seems to have grown close to him as she believed that he changed since joining the play (but she was unaware that he was just using her to get under Jim's skin). However, after she discovers Jim’s secret and begins to spend more time with him, their relationship took a turn as Claire showed immediate disgust towards his flirting and when she tries to cover Jim's absence with "Jim Lake Disease", he had no problems trying to make her look like a fool. However, after Steve learns Jim's secret, it's most likely that they are at least mutual friends.

In Wizards, the two are close friends and do take friendly jabs at each other; Claire is obviously annoyed by Steve's utter insolence, yet appreciates his help either way.

Vendel Claire met the troll elder Vendel after she finally learned the truth about trolls and Jim, Toby, Blinky, and AAARRRGGHH!!! brought her to Trollmarket. At first, Vendel took umbrage of another human in Trollmarket until Claire spoke to him in perfect Troll, impressing him so much that he easily warmed up to her.

Claire was visibly saddened by Vendel's death.

Aja and Krel Tarron Although Claire has little interactions with the royal children alone, it's clear that they are good friends.

Mothership Claire was excited to meet Mother in "D'aja Vu" and had so many questions (which Mother was ready to answer).

Archie Claire and Archie appear to be on good terms with each other. Archie even allowed Claire to pet him even though him found it minor annoying amusing.

Merlin Claire and Merlin seem to have a very rocky friend with each other they would argue on how to execute their Plans against their enemies. Claire was shocked at how Merlin saw Jim Lake Jr. as a lost cause and beyond saving. The reason why was because she saw that Merlin couldn't see beyond his idea of the bigger picture to protect the world and mankind at any cost. After his death by the Green Knight Claire was sadden by his loss.

Nari Claire and Nari don't interact much be they clearly each other as allies. Nari tried to help Claire find Jim's soul on earth but sadly she failed which caused her to fall into deep sadness. Claire saw that Nari was concerned for her when she decided to go into the shadow realm to possibly find Jim's soul.

Enemies Morgana (formerly) I know her well. She's a real head case. Claire about Morgana

Claire was unaware of Morgana's existence until she becomes corrupted by the power of the Shadow Staff, a relic of Morgana herself. For the beginning of Part Three, Morgana uses Claire to tell Gunmar how to bring the Eternal Night and to kill the current Trollhunter, Jim, by possessing her and trapping her soul in the Shadow Realm. After Jim and Toby rescue Claire, she begins to fight Morgana for the control of the Shadow Staff while, in the process, retain memories and knowledge of Morgana. Claire is successful as she regains control of her body and severed Morgana's connection with the staff.

After her experiences with Morgana, Claire holds a strong grudge against the evil sorceress and desires to duel her during the Eternal Night War. Claire and Morgana could be considered as foils for each other, similar to Jim and Gunmar.

In Wizards, both hers and Morgana's relationship becomes much more complex. When both herself along with Douxie, Jim, and Steve where sent into the past before Morgana became the evil witch that would try to kill her and her friends and allies, they both become friends. They bonded in learning that they have a talent for Shadowmancy. Claire even tried to help Morgana and Arthur patch up their relationship with each other but she ultimately failed with both of them become enemies. She was sadly in that she failed and thought that Morgana was died and had nightmares in her failure to help Morgana from falling off a cliff.

When she was unable to convince Morgana that there is another way to solve the Kingdom of Camelot Problems with the trolls through diplomacy but Morgana had enough of talking and said that the time of diplomacy is over and she become the enemy of both Claire and the Trollhunters. After returning from the past, they where sworn enemies until her resurrection where Morgana began to question herself and the motives of the Arcane Order. After Morgana saw that she was no more than a pawn for the Arcane Order, she turned on them. With that revelation Morgana joined forces with the Trollhunters and the wizards to stop the order. Claire was sadden to see of Morgana sacrifice herself to stop her brother and Arcane Order.

Gunmar Although they have little-to-no interactions whatsoever, it is clear that Claire and Gunmar are foes.

Angor Rot (formerly) At first, Claire and Angor were initially enemies when Jim tells his friends about him. In "The Shattered King", Claire attempted to take back the Killstone from the assassin, but instead took his weapon, the Shadow Staff, and made it her own.

In "A Night to Remember", Angor distraughtly believed no man can wield his weapon, but Claire sasses that she's no man. When he attempts to take back his weapon, she kicks him in the gronk-nuks.

In Part Three, however, when Angor reforms to try and stop Morgana, he tries to use the last of his moments to help Claire trap the evil witch in the Shadow Realm.

King Arthur Claire and Arthur barely interact with each other, but before he became the Green Knight, they appeared to get along somewhat, yet she despised his paranoia and hypocrisy, as well as seeing the bad in creatures instead of the good (even when he threatens to kill her injured half-troll boyfriend).

When she discovers that he's resurrected as the Green Knight, she loses every ounce of respect for him when he mercilessly corrupts her boyfriend and forces him to attack her.

Arcane Order It is clear that Claire despises and is afraid of the Arcane Order after everything they've put her and Jim through; Especial with the Green Knight that has place a sword shard into Jim's amulet and chest that later turned him temporarily into an evil troll and attack them.

Trivia En el libro de 2015, Claire tenía el cabello más largo, su apellido era "Fontaine" y era escocesa en vez de mexicana. Su comida favorita es guacamole y bromea que se bañaría en él. En "Receta para el Desastre", es alérgica al polvo. Menciona que su abuela vive en México. Su cabello se volvió blanco por el uso intensivo de la magia de sombras antes de Douxie. Es el único personaje principal de Trollhunters que no aparece físicamente en 3Below Parte Dos, aunque se menciona. Hace un cameo en una foto con Enrique en "Día de la Madre". Nació después de octubre de 2000. Tiene la cuarta mayor cantidad de apariciones en la trilogía Cuentos de Arcadia, 68 de 88 episodios. Tiene cierta preocupación por su imagen, especialmente en la nominación de Spring Fling Queen. En "Grand Theft Otto", finge ser de Tapachula, México.

More Intricately forged by Merlin, the Amulet is not only the harbor of a Trollhunter's sword and armor, but a source of great magic. The Art of Trollhunters

The Amulet of Daylight (also called the Amulet of Merlin, Merlin's Amulet, and the Trollhunter Amulet) was a magical amulet created by Merlin, which acted as both the source of power and a symbol of office for the Trollhunter, capable of summoning the Trollhunter Armor and the Sword of Daylight.

After acquiring all three Triumbric Stones, the Trollhunter could unlock a new armor: the Eclipse Armor along with the only known weapon capable of permanently killing Gunmar: the Eclipse Blade.

The amulet was later destroyed by the Arcane Order so that they could release Morgana from the Shadow Realm.

During Rise of the Titans, the amulet was rebuilt and upgraded by Krel Tarron and Stuart, now allowing it to summon the Magiktech Armor, and due to the connection it was given to the legendary sword Excalibur, it is able to summon the sword anytime the wearer wishes.

History

Creation

Killahead, Part One Merlin’s incantation to lock the amulet together

The Amulet was created by the wizard Merlin for his Trollhunters to use during the 12th century, right before the start of the Battle of Killahead. Merlin took Morgana's left hand to make the amulet. According to legend, he made it malleable so each Trollhunter could combat the darkness that even its creator could not foresee. The Amulet is roughly 900 years old but it is unknown how many Trollhunters have wielded it.

Known Trollhunters

Main article: Trollhunter

First Human Trollhunter

On his way to school, Jim Lake Jr. and his best friend, Toby Domzalski, discovered Kanjigar's remains in the canal, along with the amulet, which called Jim's name. After school, Jim managed to activate the amulet while also meeting his trainers, Blinky and AAARRRGGHH!!!.

He later became the Amulet's first half-troll wielder and, ultimately, its last wielder after the Amulet was destroyed by the Arcane Order to resurrect Morgana. However, Krel and Stuart rebuilt the Amulet, upgraded with magic and Akiridion technology to make it stronger and more improved.

After resetting the timeline, Jim allowed his best friend, Toby Domzalski, to become the new timeline's Trollhunter. It is unclear if Jim still has his upgraded amulet after traveling back in time.

Physical Description

The journey of the Amulet of Daylight is an evolution of power and form. The original artifact features an intricate and circular design with an outer metal ring engraved with rhymes and raised glyphs that glow electric blue when activated. The center displays a complex mechanical mechanism of gears and concentric layers of moving circles, framing a lens that emits a blue light and a vortex of energy that appears to contain a miniature galaxy. Ornamental metallic prongs extend from the top and bottom. The amulet was designed with a crescent-shaped cavity at the bottom for the insertion of rare stones that can grant additional abilities to the armor.

Later, the original amulet was modified to counter the power of the Eclipse. The overall design retained its original form and engravings, but the lower portion was dramatically altered with a much larger, angular metallic attachment extending outward and downward. This new attachment contains more cavities for the Triumbric Stones, including a large central cavity designed for the Birthstone, flanked by smaller slots for the other stones. At the center of this new attachment, beneath the Birthstone, Gunmar’s own eye was placed, a pulsating red gem resembling an eye that emanates dark energy. When the Triumbric Stones are inserted, the amulet’s mechanism glows with a combination of the stones’ colors, while Gunmar’s eye introduces a red energy that clashes with the central blue light.

Next, the amulet underwent another modification for a specific mission involving the Fragmentation Stone. The original artifact and its Triumbric attachment were temporarily replaced or altered to accommodate this dangerous stone. The amulet maintained its basic circular form but with a slightly altered metallic structure for the new stone. The central lens, instead of a constant blue, displayed a fragmented and unstable glow of multiple colors, reflecting the stone’s fragmentation energy. The mechanism appeared more unstable, and the engraved glyphs seemed to flicker or distort.

Finally, the original amulet was destroyed and a completely new version was created by Krel and Stuart, based on advanced Akiridion technology. This amulet has a much sleeker, futuristic, and technological design compared to the original. It is composed of polished Akiridion metal in gray and teal-blue tones, with clean edges and smooth geometric designs. Instead of an exposed mechanical mechanism, it features a smooth display panel that glows in teal and turquoise, with engraved Akiridion markings that emit light. The center presents a teal vortex-like light pattern, resembling the core of the original amulet but entirely energy-based. It is visibly lighter and has a high-tech aesthetic, lacking the rustic metallic prongs of the original.

Abilities

Armor/Sword Summoning: When the amulet is activated, it grants the user the Trollhunter Armor and the Sword of Daylight. The amulet can be ripped off its wearer or knocked off by excessive force.

Adjusting: The amulet, as well as its armor and sword, alters itself to the user’s proportions. When Jim first activated them, they were sized for Kanjigar before shrinking to fit Jim. If the wearer’s size is unnaturally altered, such as through a Furgolator, the amulet adjusts accordingly, as shown when Jim fought Chompsky after being disarmed.

Light Emission: The amulet can generate a surge of light capable of blinding or even petrifying trolls, except those immune to sunlight. This light does not harm the Trollhunter, even if they are a troll, but it does not protect against natural sunlight. It can also emit a focused laser beam.

Emotional Trigger: The amulet responds to the wearer’s emotions, activating under stress and deactivating when calm. Its effects vary depending on the user, especially due to Jim’s human physiology. Over time, it responds to desires, allowing manipulation of the armor. After Jim became a half-troll, he could not remove the amulet due to emotional turmoil, as it locked him in the armor for protection until he calmed down.

Magiportation (limited): The amulet returns to its user if discarded, as it is permanently bonded. However, if stolen, it does not return unless the user is in mortal danger, in which case it can break free and return.

Gemstone Storage/Upgrading: The amulet can be opened and enhanced with special stones, each granting different abilities. Certain combinations unlock upgrades such as new weapons, duplication, or wall-walking.

Glaive Conjuring: With the Birthstone, the user can summon two controllable glaives.

Shield Conjuring: With the Killstone, the user can summon a protective shield on the left forearm.

Helmet Conjuring: With Gunmar’s Eye, the user can summon a protective helmet resistant to lethal damage and specific weapons.

Eclipse Armor/Blade Summoning: With all three Triumbric Stones inserted, the armor transforms into a black and red form, granting access to the Eclipse Armor and Sword, the only weapon capable of permanently killing Gunmar.

Translator: The amulet translates Trollspeak to English and vice versa.

Supernatural Detection: The amulet helps detect danger, though this ability is less reliable for Jim. It can also scan areas to identify threats.

Opening/Rebuilding the Killahead Bridge: The amulet allows the Trollhunter to open a portal to the Darklands and can reconstruct the bridge if destroyed.

Temporal Protection: When time was reset using combined magic and technology, the amulet preserved Jim’s memories within the time loop.

Trivia

In the 2015 book, the amulet did not have magical powers; it only allowed Jim to understand trolls.

According to Aaron Waltke, Merlin created the amulet to have its own “life,” acting independently to fulfill fate.

Although Merlin built the amulet, it always returns to the chosen Trollhunter. Merlin is the only one besides the Trollhunter who can remove it safely; others are repelled by force.

Jim once questioned whether Merlin created the amulet alone. It was later revealed that Merlin had an apprentice who contributed to its creation.

This apprentice is revealed to be Douxie.

In "D'aja Vu", Aja mistakenly calls the amulet an “omelette.”

The amulet was forged so that any Trollhunter, regardless of language, can use its incantation.

The inscription on the amulet can change languages until the user understands it.

Merlin attempted multiple materials before using Morgana’s severed hand to contain the Daylight stone’s power.

One failed material was Dragonstooth iron.

It remains unclear whether Jim still possesses the rebuilt amulet after traveling back in time and allowing Toby to become the Trollhunter in the alternate timeline.

More Initially, the concept of the armor was that it should feel somewhat bulky on Jim, as it was not meant to be worn by a human, representing his struggle with the responsibility of being a Trollhunter. However, that idea conflicted with the concept of the armor as a magical entity that adapts to its wearer. The armor itself is a character, and the concept was refined to make it fit like a second skin on Jim. Rustam Hasanov, Art Director

For the glory of Merlin, Daylight is mine to command! Incantation to activate the armor

The Trollhunter Armor (or the Daylight Armor) was a magical suit of armor worn by the Trollhunter.

Description

Jim’s armor is a magical construct made of overlapping plates designed to conform closely to his body. The surface is polished silver with bluish-teal reflections, capable of reflecting its surroundings. The breastplate protects the torso and holds the Daylight Amulet embedded on the left side, which emits a neon blue glow when activated.

Segmented pauldrons provide mobility at the shoulders. The vambraces and gauntlets are fully articulated for precise movement, while the cuisses, poleyns, greaves, and sabatons maintain a sharp and functional design along the legs and feet. Beneath the armor is a black inner layer made of flexible material, allowing full range of motion at the joints.

The armor emits cyan or turquoise light through its runes and the amulet. In darker environments, reflections shift into green-blue and purple tones, producing a mystical visual effect. Shadows remain soft on the face but more defined across the armor’s surfaces.

The Daylight Amulet has an aged silver-metal appearance, circular in structure with concentric rings and gear-like components. Its rim is engraved with runes and geometric patterns. A crown-like structure rises from the top with three pointed shapes at the base. At the center, a carved Troll face with angular features and hollow eyes surrounds a glowing blue stone, from which energy lines radiate. Small mechanical elements, including rotating pointers and layered gears, give it a hybrid appearance of ancient craftsmanship and magical technology.

Powers

Summoning: The armor magically attaches itself to the warrior when activated by the Amulet of Daylight.

Sword of Daylight Conjuring: The Trollhunter Armor allows the wearer to summon the Sword of Daylight whenever they wish.

Weapon Conjuring: After the Amulet is upgraded with the Birthstone and the Killstone, the armor gains the ability to summon two boomerang-like daggers known as Glaives and a large warrior shield. When the Eye of Gunmar is added, it also grants a protective helmet resistant to lethal damage and dark influence.

Enhanced Durability: The armor is made of pure sunlight, providing strong protection against Trolls.

Enhanced Strength: The armor increases the wearer’s physical strength.

Enhanced Speed: The armor greatly enhances speed and agility.

Limited Force Field: The armor can generate a brief force field to protect the wearer from harm.

Limitations

Lack of Sunlight Protection: Although made of sunlight and harmless to the Trollhunter, it does not protect against natural sunlight if the wearer is a troll.

Exhaustion: Extreme fatigue limits or prevents the use of certain abilities, as seen during Jim’s time in the Darklands.

Trivia

A green glow occasionally reflects off the armor when Jim wears it, suggesting a connection to Merlin’s magic.

The Eclipse Armor was a new armor worn by the Trollhunter, created by the power of the Triumbric Stones when they were inserted into the Amulet of Daylight.

Description

The Eclipse Armor was similar to the Trollhunter Armor, but black with red trimmings, and with the back of the amulet facing forward. The back of the amulet is embedded into the chest, inverted and glowing with a red-orange light instead of blue. It acts as the core of the armor, distributing energy throughout the entire system.

Powers

Like its counterpart, it was made of daylight, though in this case it appeared to be more aligned with moonlight. It manifested alongside the Sword of Eclipse when the Amulet of Daylight was activated after inserting the Triumbric Stones.

According to Jim, this armor allowed him to blend into darkness and avoid detection more easily.

Limitations

While Jim was in the Darklands, his weakened willpower caused the armor to gradually lose its strength, along with his ability to summon the Eclipse Sword and other weapons.

The Magiktech Armor is a new armor formed from the rebuilt Amulet of Daylight, created by Krel Tarron and Stuart in Trollhunters: Rise of the Titans.

History

Rise of the Titans

After Stuart inserted the green stone from Excalibur’s hilt, imbued with Merlin’s magic, into the rebuilt Amulet of Daylight, the amulet took flight and homed in on Jim, who was about to be executed by Bellroc atop her Fire Titan. After speaking the incantation, the new futuristic knight armor formed around Jim, allowing him to summon Excalibur and fight on equal terms with Bellroc. Jim ultimately defeated the sorcerer with the help of Toby, who used trifurcate radiation to weaken Bellroc.

In the climax of the battle, Toby was mortally wounded. Jim offered the amulet to him, but Toby refused and passed away peacefully. Remembering what Nari said about the Krohnisfere, Jim used Excalibur to break open the relic, revealing the Time Stone. Realizing he could use it to travel back in time, save his fallen friends, and create a better future, he inserted the gemstone into the amulet, summoned the armor again, and reset time to the day he first found the original amulet.

Description

The armor features a futuristic and aerodynamic design with a polished metal base in shades of silver and dark gray. It is composed of articulated plates that fit closely to the body, covering the chest, shoulders, arms, and legs. The breastplate has a strong central structure with grooves suggesting durability, while the shoulder pads are slightly pointed, giving a heroic appearance.

The metallic tones are contrasted by an internal lighting system in vibrant neon blue or cyan. This light flows through thin lines and slits across the entire armor, forming patterns similar to circuits or magical technological energy. Bright circular nodes appear at the knees and possibly the wrists, acting as focal points of light.

The overall geometry consists of elongated triangles, hexagons, and angular lines, reinforcing a sense of speed and precision. The sword is wide and imposing, with a metallic blade and gold or green details near the hilt. The base of the blade has intricate ornamentation, and

Onyx Shards Syndrome

Creator: Onxy shards

Infected: Jim Lake Jr

Properties Rich: RNA-based Virus Family: Progenitor family of viruses Infectious? Non Given Death Rate: ~100%

is a lethal disease caused by a latent strain of the Corrupted Excalibur that evolved to adapt and evade its host’s antibodies

Pathophysiology Stage 0: Dormant

The virus lies temporarily dormant within the host due to the presence of specific antibodies. As the virus is not completely suppressed, it begins to build an immunity to the antibodies over time.

Stage 1: Activation

The virus becomes active and black, bruise-like marks begin to appear on parts of the body. Mild symptoms such as general malaise and coughing occur.

Stage 2: Development

The black marks spread further across the body, coupled with numbness in the affected areas. The marks extend to the internal organs, sometimes leading to hematemesis.

Stage 3: Terminal

The black marks darken and spread across the entire body. Severe pain and intense fatigue make moving difficult. Vomiting of blood becomes uncontrollable. Patients at the terminal stage typically die within one to two hours.

Treatments Elpis, an antiviral agent, is the only known countermeasure against the condition. The antiviral agent was highly potent that individuals in advanced terminal stages of the syndrome were shown to be curable. This was demonstrated when a dose was administered to Kennedy by Ashcroft, resulting in his rapid and complete recovery.

Abilities The shards were able to corrupt a victim's heart if it struck them in the chest, even a considerably strong-willed individual, like Jim. Once it completely entered the heart, it turns the victim into a monster, effectively turning them into a brainwashed slave under the user's control. According to Merlin, there was no known cure to remove the shards (or more specifically, an easy way).

The shard that affected Jim even prevented him from summoning his weapons, leaving him virtually defenseless.

The shards were potent enough to fatally wound powerful wizards, like Merlin and Morgana.

Weaknesses The only known ways to pause the Onyx Shard's process was by placing the victim in stasis within a crystal or, in Jim's case, traveling back in time to freeze the corruption temporally (though they would still remain critically injured).

The victim could be freed completely from the corruption caused by the shard only if its user was killed (in this case, Arthur).

Jim has dark spots, symptoms of onyx shard (Green Knight Fruit). The spots are located in Neck (left side, below the ear), left eye (around the eyelid and sclera), and left hand/forearm (under the glove).

OBS: This story about the virus is not canon in Tales of Arcadia, but the one about the sting is canon.

Obviously Jim isn't infected, at least not in the way the persona describes, and also his physical appearance as Half-Troll is him in that state, and the armor is scratched And with the fragment on the amulet/chest. But apart from that, he's normal. (In Camelot, the fragment stopped moving, and when he returned to the present, the fragment started moving again.) This supposed virus was inspired by/referenced from the game Resident Evil Requiem by Leon S. Kennedy; the virus is called Raccoon City Syndrome. But anyway, within the persona, Jim is infected but his eye doesn't change, he only has the fever and coughs up blood and the weakness and other canonical things from the Onxy Fragment.

Onyx Shards

History Arthur was granted access to the shards after his resurrection, when Excalibur was corrupted by the Arcane Order's dark magic.

He later critically wounded Jim when they were fighting below Hoboken. Merlin was forced to place his fallen champion into stasis to prevent the shard from crawling its way into the boy's heart.

When Arthur and Morgana fought for the last time, Arthur lethally wounded Morgana with a shard, but not before she destroyed his control over Excalibur, thus stripping the sword permanently of its ability to produce Onyx Shards. Jim was even cured from his corruption and reverted back to his original human form, thanks to Claire's shadow magic.

The disease spreads if the sick person exerts themselves too much. Let's say Jim fights too hard—regardless of whether he takes a beating, wins, or loses—he develops a high fever, aching bones, and vomits blood, while the spots spread across his body.

Jim’s face is covered in dirt and bears several injuries. Visible, active bleeding trickles from his lips, with fresh, bright red blood staining his chin and part of his sparse beard. Small dark patches—resembling a mix of soil, dried blood, and soot—are visible around his mouth. A shallow cut on his right cheek, featuring dried blood scabs and dirt residue, creates a dark, textured mark on the skin. On his forehead, just above the right eyebrow, there is a patch of visibly abraded skin marked by tiny droplets of dried blood and a longer, finer scratch that reveals an uneven, dark red hue beneath the surface. Above his left eye, a small spot of dried blood and faint scratches also mark the skin. Beyond the cuts and bleeding, his entire face is coated in a fine layer of dust and soot—particularly around the eyes and nose—which contrasts with his pale complexion and gives him a weary, worn-out appearance. The blood trickling from his mouth is the most prominent detail, displaying a vibrant color and a clearly liquid texture as it runs down his chin.

Description As the name implies, Onyx Shards were irregularly-shaped black crystals.

Abilities The shards were able to corrupt a victim's heart if it struck them in the chest, even a considerably strong-willed individual, like Jim. Once it completely entered the heart, it turns the victim into a monster, effectively turning them into a brainwashed slave under the user's control. According to Merlin, there was no known cure to remove the shards (or more specifically, an easy way).

The shard that affected Jim even prevented him from summoning his weapons, leaving him virtually defenseless.

The shards were potent enough to fatally wound powerful wizards, like Merlin and Morgana.

Weaknesses The only known ways to pause the Onyx Shard's process was by placing the victim in stasis within a crystal or, in Jim's case, traveling back in time to freeze the corruption temporally (though they would still remain critically injured).

The victim could be freed completely from the corruption caused by the shard only if its user was killed (in this case, Arthur).

Javier Nuñez is a minor character in Trollhunters and appears briefly in 3Below. He is the husband of Ophelia Nuñez and the father of Claire and Enrique Nuñez, as well as foster father to NotEnrique.

History

Backstory Javier met Ophelia in his youth and later married her. Together they had two children, Claire and Enrique Nuñez.

Trollhunters

In Trollhunters, Barbara calls Javier, Ophelia Nuñez and Nana Domzalski to her home to talk about unusual nighttime activities involving their children. Jim, Toby and Claire arrive later and Barbara insists on knowing the truth. The children hesitate but eventually reveal the existence of trolls and their role in protecting them. The adults react with disbelief and laughter, leaving Barbara embarrassed.

After Jim and Barbara talk in the basement, Jim, Toby and Claire confirm everything and demonstrate their powers. Javier and Ophelia are shocked by Claire’s abilities. Blinky and Dictatious then appear while fighting goblins, and the children join the fight. When a goblin attacks Claire, Javier intervenes by grabbing it and throwing it into the portal created by Claire.

After the battle, Javier expresses pride in Claire and promises to support her. Later, while the children search for the Staff of Avalon, Javier waits for updates. When Detective Scott arrives with Battle of the Bands posters, Javier is asked to take Dictatious upstairs to avoid exposure. Despite this, Dictatious is later discovered by Scott, leading to chaos and him being knocked out by Nancy.

When Scott wakes up, the adults perform a theatrical reenactment of their children’s adventures. Scott becomes interested and tries to join in, and Javier applauds him before Barbara sends him away. Eventually Barbara receives a message confirming the children are alive, though the staff has been lost to Gunmar, and they have instead found Merlin.

In 3Below, Javier is briefly seen walking with his wife and Enrique past Varvatos and Luug.

Physical Description Javier has neatly combed black hair and a growing beard and mustache. He has brown eyes and fair skin. He usually wears a dark red shirt with a white collar under a navy blue low-cut cardigan. He pairs this with coffee-colored pants and white sneakers.

Physical Appearance

Javier Nunez is a human male with a tan skin tone. His head has a rectangular shape with a slightly rounded jawline and a prominent chin. He has short, jet-black hair that is styled upwards at the top with a bit of volume, while the hair at the nape and sides is cut shorter and remains tidy. He does not have a traditional fringe, as the hair is swept back and up from his forehead. His eyebrows are thick, black, and arched, positioned above wide, almond-shaped eyes. The irises are a deep brown color with visible black pupils. He features a well-groomed black goatee that circles his mouth, connecting a mustache to a soul patch and a full chin beard. His ears are medium-sized and sit flat against the sides of his head. His nose is straight with a slightly rounded tip, and his lips are thin. When he speaks or smiles, his teeth appear white and even.

He has an average, lean build with proportional arms and legs. His hands have long fingers and visible knuckles. He stands at a standard adult height for a male.

He wears long, dark grey trousers that cover his legs down to his ankles. On his feet, he wears practical dark brown dress shoes with a simple, matte finish. He does not wear any visible jewelry, glasses, or other accessories. His overall appearance is that of a professional and well-maintained middle-aged man.

After learning about the Troll world and Jim’s struggles, he develops respect and trust toward him, eventually allowing Claire to travel with Jim to New Jersey.

Behind the Scenes Voiced by N/A First appearance To Catch a Changeling Last appearance Witch Hunt (mentioned)

Official Biography Enrique is Claire’s little brother. He was swapped with a Changeling by goblins working for Gunmar. He is currently held in the Darklands while the Changeling named NotEnrique takes his place in Arcadia. His parents are unaware of the swap and Claire is the only family member who knows the truth.

History

Backstory When Enrique was born, Claire gave him her baby blanket toy Suzy Snooze, a plush bunny she grew up with, and often takes care of him when their parents are at work.

Trollhunters Part One In To Catch a Changeling, Claire invites Jim to her house to help him study algebra since he is failing. Jim meets baby Enrique in his bouncy seat. Jim shows him the Amulet of Daylight, and Enrique shows a strong liking toward Jim, something Claire also notices.

After Jim destroys the previous Changeling, Gladysgro, Enrique is kidnapped by goblins working for Gunmar and replaced by NotEnrique. Enrique is taken to the Darklands where he spends time in a nursery under goblin care alongside other changeling familiars.

During the second half of Part One, Jim, Claire, and Toby search for a way into the Darklands to rescue him, while also trying to avoid releasing Gunmar. They decide to collect the Triumbric Stones first in order to destroy Gunmar.

NotEnrique lives with the Nuñez family in Enrique’s place and even shows Claire that the real Enrique is safe by projecting an image of him using his saliva ability.

Trollhunters Part Two Jim eventually rescues Enrique at the last moment. However, after the Troll Tribunal destroys Killahead Bridge believing Gunmar is escaping, Jim is captured by Gunmar’s army.

After this, Enrique is rarely seen or mentioned for the rest of the series.

Wizards Enrique is indirectly mentioned once by Claire when she tells a younger Morgana that she once lost her brother and only realized later how much fear she felt after that loss.

Physical Description Enrique is a small baby with freckles, brown eyes, and blond hair, which is different from the rest of his family.

Personality As a baby, Enrique has limited personality traits, but he is shown to be playful, friendly, and affectionate toward his family, especially Jim.

Trivia Enrique has no 2015 book counterpart and was created specifically for the show. His blond hair reflects fairy lore where blond-haired babies were considered more likely to be taken and replaced by changelings. According to Aaron Waltke, an early concept involved Enrique aging rapidly into a wild 16-year-old due to the Darklands affecting time differently, being trained by trolls, but this idea was removed because it was considered too dark. In that early concept, Enrique would have been a wildcard, behaving like a feral but loyal warrior. He would still maintain a bond with NotEnrique in some versions of the Concept.
