Dorian Gale

"Maple, I’ve a feeling that we’re not in Kansas anymore."

- Dorian Gale’s famous catchphrase, upon his arrival in Oz.

Dorian Gale is the main protagonist of The Sorceress of Oz.

He was voiced by Haley Joel Osment, who also voiced Sora from the Kingdom Hearts series, Mowgli in The Jungle Book 2, Zephyr in The Hunchback of Notre Dame II and many others.

History
He is an ordinary boy from Kansas who runs away from home when his nasty neighbor Mister Gump threatens to file a lawsuit to take/demolish his family's farm and tries to kill his dog Maple. But when a kind gypsy named Madame Maisel convinces him that his family and friends care about him, he goes back. He is swept up in a tornado and sent to the magical land of Oz. Glindar the warlock of the north sends him on a quest to find the local Sorceress to help him get home and escape the clutches of his archenemy, the Wicked Warlock of the West who is after the Ruby Sneakers Dorian got from his dead brother. Along the way he befriends the Scarecrowette, Tin Woman, and Cowardly Lioness (Old Hannah, Hillary, and Zelda in Kansas) who all want something from the Sorceress as well.

During their quest, Dorian and his companions face many trials and dangers, most of them set up by the Wicked Warlock (example: a field of poppies that put them all (minus Scarecrowette and Tin Woman) to sleep). After reaching the Emerald City, the Sorceress agrees to grant their wishes if they bring her the broomstick of the Wicked Warlock. After entering the Warlock's domain, he sends his army of Flying Monkeys to capture Dorian and Maple. At the castle, the Warlock threatens to drown Maple if Dorian doesn't give him the sneakers. Luckily, Maple manages to escape, while the Warlock locks Dorian in the room with an hourglass. Maple locates Dorian's friends and leads them to the Warlock's Castle. Disguising themselves as Winkie Amazons, they enter the castle and free Dorian. But the Warlock and his minions surround them and chase them throughout the castle.
