Magenta, also known as "Maj", is a supporting character in the film Sky High.
Background[]
Physical appearance[]
Magenta has black hair with purple streaks. She always wears purple or black clothing. Magenta has a semi-punkish style to her. When transformed into her guinea pig form, she has purple streaks in her fur and a high pitched voice.
Personality[]
Magenta can be very sarcastic at times, and sometimes pessimistic as well. An example of this is when she referred to sidekick class as the "loser track." In addition, when Will said it would take all of them to beat Royal Pain, she disagreed, claiming that aside from himself and Warren Peace, the rest of the group was composed of sidekicks incapable of assisting him.
When she met The Commander, she shakes his hand with an excited look in her eyes and tells him about her ability.
There are times when she has dropped her moody act and laughs along with the group, especially when amusing incidents occur. (Examples are walking past 2 frozen male students, watching Mr. Boy trip and fall, and when Will ties Lash to the pole in the Save the Citizen arena.)
Powers[]
Guinea Pig Form: Magenta can shapeshift into a guinea pig to fit and travel into small places that other people can't.
Role in the film[]
As someone that has powers, she attends Sky High School. Because of her powers she is assigned to Hero Support by Coach Boomer. She becomes friends with Will Stronghold, Layla Williams, Ethan, and Zach. When Royal Pain sabotages the anti-gravity device, causing Sky High to fall, Magenta acts quickly to repair the device. She had to transform in a guinea pig and crawl in an air vent to access the device which she was not too happy about at first. She fixes the device by chewing on the wire, and the school returned into the sky. Later, she is approached by Zach during a dance.
Relationships[]
Zach Braun/Zach Attack[]
It is apparent that Zach has a crush on Magenta, as he is always trying to impress her with either his words or actions. He tends to say things that are more along the lines of what she would say and in turn, she'll surprise him with the opposite answer. Prime examples are when Zach is dismissing the homecoming dance as stupid and Magenta replies that she thinks she'll go. At times, Magenta seems annoyed with Zach's overexuberant personality but it seems that she enjoys his company. She seems amused by his gift of glowing, as she comments twice on it, one time during Hero Support class and the other as Zach lights up the air vent they are crawling in.
Layla Williams[]
Magenta and Layla are good friends. Often partnered together for Medulla's science class, in one scene both faint at a Kryptonite-like mineral. Magenta seems to view Layla as smart, as she asks Layla for help on a homework assignment during lunch.
Trivia[]
- Her name comes from the fact she has purple streaks on her hair and wears purple clothing. Interestingly, her name sounds very similar to the X-Men villain, Magneto.
