Clairiying question on the Disney bit- does that also includes Pixar, or is pixar considered separate from disney?

Pixar is a subsidiary of the Walt Disney Company. The films featuring this character were not made by Pixar either. I am happy to treat this as a clarification, but I've already given quite a few little clues now.

1. Not real
2. Not most people's "favourite fictional character ever"
3. I'd prefer to have dinner with Faramir
4. Not originating in a novel
5. Animated
6. Not featured in a Disney (or Pixar) film
7. First appeared in 20th Century
8. Not Japanese media
9. In a few films (clarified)
10. Human
11. Villanous / not a "goodie" (from the viewpoint of the audience at least).

Incorrect guesses:
The Luck Dragon (Oct)

I am going to guess Lord Farquaad.

I am going to guess Lord Farquaad.

He first appeared in 2001 so wouldn't qualify,

Excuse me, in my morphine-induced sluggishness I missed an answer from the summary:

1. Not real
2. Not most people's "favourite fictional character ever"
3. I'd prefer to have dinner with Faramir
4. Not originating in a novel
5. Animated
6. Not featured in a Disney (or Pixar) film
7. First appeared in 20th Century
8. Not Japanese media
9. In a few films (clarified)
10. Human
11. Villanous / not a "goodie" (from the viewpoint of the audience at least).
12. Not presented as being based in a specific European location (although actual Earth locations do appear).

Incorrect guesses:
The Luck Dragon (Oct)

Based on (12) I will confirm that it is not Lord Farquaad but won't count that as Hamish's guess.

Female ?

I'm really stumped by this one- anything I think of as a possible thread ends up being a dead end, so I'm just gonna throw out another question at random and hope it helps someone else.

Is this an American made movie for Children?

( I thought I finally figured it out like a dozen times, and always see something that makes it clear it couldn't be who I'm guessing)

Is the animation studio that created this character based in the U.S?

This question has two elements and it is hard to give a simple "yes or no" answer as such.

I will have to go with, no.

Ok, is it on this list-

Actually ignore that question- none of those movies actually qualify for the multiple in a series rule I'm pretty sure

This question was retracted so I won't answer it.
