He also featured in the television series House of Mouse and its direct-to-video film adaptation, Mickey's Magical Christmas.
The original role to assist emperor-turned-llama Kuzco was to be female, and a potential love interest for the discourteous teen.
Yzma (/ˈiːzmə/) (voiced initially by Eartha Kitt; Leslie Carrara-Rudolph from 2012 to present)[3] is Kuzco's primary parental guardian and advisor, and the main antagonist of the franchise.
She is a conniving and power-hungry who wields potions that enable her to transform others into animals and continues to pursue vengeance against Kuzco while he grows into a wiser ruler.
The concept of her formulating a nonsensical plan before settling on an easier-to-pull-off idea (always a potion) would later be used as a running gag in The Emperor's New School.
[4] In the television series House of Mouse, Yzma makes a brief cameo appearance in the episode "Pluto vs. Figaro".
Whenever he faces a moral dilemma, smaller versions of Kronk, his shoulder angel and devil, appear, but they usually fight one another instead of helping him.
