Cartoon Characters "K"

 


KIMBER BENTON
Brief Character description: Probably the next most important character after Jem/Jerrica, Kimber is Jerrica's little sister, she is in her late teens.  She is the creative force behind the band, writing all the songs and playing keyboards. Kimber is very sensitive and extreme in her emotions, it's quite within her character to throw tantrums or fall madly in love with whoever.  So she has had quite a few boyfriends but is not really serious about any of them.  She is impulsive and thinks with her heart, not her head.  Kimber is the most rebellious of the Holograms and has on a few occasions flirted with being a bit more wild. 
Kimber and other Characters: Kimber is usually pretty adult most of the time but is more likely than the other girls to require guidance or a parental figure, usually played by Synergy, Jerrica, Aja or Shana.  She did form a duo with Stormer for some time, but this is never brought up outside of that one episode, unfortunately!  She is very popular with the guys, she has at least 5 boyfriends on the show, and is not surprisingly attracted to Riot as well. 
Her look on the show: Kimber's make up was a bit different on the show, her concert make up extended below the eyelids quite a bit.  (as did Jem's) Her outfit is pretty faithful to the doll's (the lapels being the main difference, as well as the shoes)  She never wore her 2nd edition outfit on the show.  There are at least three Jem animation teams; the centre photo being what I think Jem fans would call the most typical Kimber, the top being the light-eyed Kimber from the first five episodes, and the bottom being the "B-team" Aja (for episodes like Music Is Magic & The Journey to Shangri-la). For more on Aja's cartoon style, please visit Kimber's Cartoon Wardrobe!
Important or starring episodes: She's a main supporting character in most of the episodes.  Specifically: Kimber's Rebellion, The Princess and the Singer, Scandal, The Bands Break Up, Father's Day.

    KRISSIE
    Brief Character description: One of the more level-headed Starlight Girls, she is usually shown to be the voice of reason.  She tends to see the good in people, not the bad. 
    Krissie and other Characters: Krissie is usually shown around troubled characters her own age, trying to convince them to act responsibly or help them overcome fears or whatever.    She would be a good guidance counsellor in later life!  She even gets her own song, "You May Be a Star."  She shares the same voice actor as Shana. She is one of the only characters who was developed on the show first, and later turned into a doll.
