I have seen it a looong time ago.  I have some episodes on a disc, not very many.  Though it looks like some are on youtube.

I have the DVDs of the first 2 seasons, and the third might not be released because of the controversial final episode (but the third has one of my favorite episodes).

For now, I'll pick Ace London, Mr Sultan (Shere Khan's business rival), & Wan Lo.  My OC's will probably be on my next post.

Have fun!

The episode was about Baloo being hired to deliver a package to Thembria, which was later revealed to be a bomb set to explode over the capital.  There were complaints about the show being referenced to terrorism, so it was no longer aired on TV.

Take your time.  It'll obviously be a while before we can get started.

Any specific Season we should watch, or just any episodes?   It's been a while since I've seen any episodes, and most of those characters are ones I've never heard of.

Just about any season that you're interested in.  Most of these names are one-timers, or had appearances in no more than two to three episodes.  For example, the characters I picked:

Ace London = A respected pilot and a long-time rival of Baloo, in one episode where they both were fighting over a delivery of a new jet engine prototype, which Ace was supposed to deliver but was accidentally put in Baloo's plane, and Ace responded by accusing Baloo of theft and tried to shoot him down.  Baloo delivered the engine (via flying it and breaking the sound barrier), and Ace became the laughingstock of the local air force he was looking for.  I plan on bringing him back as a freelance pilot and a bit more humble.

Mr Sultan = A minor but important role in one episode, where Mr Sultan hired Mr Perry (name also on list) to steal one of Shere Khan's projects, a helicopter invented by Buzz, who stole the copter to keep it out of Perry's claws.  I plan to use him for a bigger role in the story.

Wan Lo = A dictator of the mystical Panda La who betrayed Baloo's trust by having him lead their entire city (in the form of balloon fortress) to Cape Suzette, and threatened to conquer them with heat-seeking missiles.  I plan to bring him back for revenge.

I finally finished a few OC's, and I got a few more that I'm finishing touches to, which I'll put here too.

Name:  Eric Green
Species:  Border Collie
Gender:  Male
Occupation:  Freelance Escort Pilot
Weapons:  Semi-automatic handgun, ceremonial air officer’s saber
Vehicles:  Fighter seaplane (resembling P-51D Mustang w/ retractable pontoons for improved aerodynamics) w/ 6 heavy machine guns

Description:  White fur w/ blue merle pattern along back & back of head, navy blue t-shirt & khaki pants, alternates between a dark-silver flight jacket & light green scarf and a white button shirt worn open

Personality:  Wise for his young age, loves to travel, reluctant to talk about his military career
Brief History:  Before his arrival to Cape Suzette, Eric was a former pilot for the kingdom of Themistocles, a small chain of islands, and was honorably discharged for services unknown to others.  Since then, he’s traveled far to enlist as an armed escort pilot for a shipping company.


Name:  Iosef Storm
Species:  Boar
Gender:  Male
Occupation:  Major, Thembrian Marines
Weapons:  Semi-automatic handgun, sub-machine gun
Vehicles:  Either a Thembrian amphibious command tank or a tri-engine staff plane
Description:  Dark purple fur, brown-red eyes, tusks, magenta officer’s uniform & cap
Personality:  Unlike many Thembrian commanders, Iosef uses his wit to sway others to help him get his way without suspicion.  He even persuaded the High Marshall to allow him command of an entire marine battalion, a small flotilla of ships, and a wing of aircraft.  His true motives are currently unknown, but he shows a growing sense of ambition further than what the high command might allow.

Brief History:  A born commander, Iosef rose up along the ranks with his cunning and ambition, later becoming a strong commander of the Thermbrian Marines.  Rather than just showing off his troops in worthless parades & marches, he actually trains them in full-scale raids on sparsely populated islands and unannounced mock battles against fellow Thembrian soldiers.  Though other commanders have known of his actions, none would dare take any news to the High Marshall out of fear, especially since Iosef has earned his favor early on.
