Villains Contest 1.5: Candidate n°12 (Jafar "A Vizir")
Do you think the villain worthy of the Pantheon of Villains ?
Yes 😈
No 👢
Presentation:
Jafar is the main antagonist of the Aladdin movie. He is the Royal Vizier of Agrabah and Aladdin's main adversary.
His villain's journey:
A while back, Jafar was nothing but a penurious hobo, whom was looked upon in Agrabah as an outcast, and was therefore belittled and disdained. That made him a sinister and psychopathic megalomaniac. So he sought to hold control over Agrabah. Some years later, he managed to join the Royal court and became Vizier. He continued his path to the power quest with the assistance of Iago his parrot. When he learned about the existence of the Lamp in the Cave of Wonders, the vizier tried to access and take the artefact in every way (but without sucess until he met Aladdin).
His biggest crimes:
Disguised as an old beggar, Jafar recruited Aladdin in a prison (from where they made jailbreak) and brought him inside the Cave of Wonders. When the young boy found and took the Lamp, the vicous "beggar" tried to kill him for stealing the Lamp but he failed again. And Aladdin managed to go out of the Cave thanks to the Genie before returning to Agrabah under the alias of Prince Ali Ababwa. A paranoid Jafar sent corrupt royal guards to abduct and assassinate "Ali Abwaba" by throwing him in the water but the "prince" survived again. The vizier hypnotized the Sultan to organizate a forced marriage between the former and Jasmine. When Aladdin wasted his plan again, Jafar stole the Lamp and ordered Genie to grant his tow wishes: To become the new sultan of Agrabah and to become the World's most powerful wizard. He exiled Aladdin to the desert but the latter returned back to Agrabah to confront (with Jasmine) the evil wizard once and all. Jafar used his third and last wish to become the most powerful deity of the universe that turning him as a dark genie. A dark genie who fell trapped in his own lamp that caused the power-hungry wizard's defeat.
He came back in The Return of Jafar but he failed again. His lamp got destroyed in the lava.
