He was voiced by Danny Cooksey as a child, Will Arnett as a teenager, and Taylor Lautner while inhabiting Joe Agate's body.

## History

Ferdinand Donaldson was originally a movie actor. After a car accident, he develops a dual good/evil personality. However, at this point, he attracted the notice of Augustus Raven (his adoptive mother's son-in-law) and his cousin-in-law Irene Weatherly, the youngest of the three Weatherly sisters. With Irene's help, Augustus performed surgery on Fauntleroy that was, from his perspective, successful, sublimating his good personality and allowing his evil personality to remain dominant. As Fauntleroy Donaldson, Ferdinand became the member of the Weatherly family and assisted the Weatherly families in their continuing conflicts against the WOOHP, including Clover's nemesis Mandy. At first, Fauntleroy was simply a shapeshifter; subsequent surgery by Augustus Raven eventually gave him the ability to alter his appearance.

Later on, Fauntleroy's dual personality manifested again, with his good personality occasionally appearing. Fauntleroy was romantically linked to Samantha Simpson, a woman with long red hair who has the same first name (albeit different last name) as his adoptive paternal aunt Samantha Weatherly (his adoptive mother's sister-in-law), who was able to help Fauntleroy overcome his evil side and ally with the WOOHP.

Ultimately, Fauntleroy's mind reverted to its evil state, causing him to seek revenge against both the Weatherly family and the WOOHP for their previous interference. He was apparently successful in killing both groups. Years later, Clover and Alexandra tracked down Fauntleroy and his adoptive paternal uncle Gary Weatherly (his adoptive mother's brother-in-law). Terry Lewis's twin brother Jerry Lewis killed Fauntleroy, although at the moment of his demise, his good side apparently manifested; he forgave Jerry Lewis and called to Samantha Simpson, his apparent best friend. Fauntleroy's adoptive older brother Jonah Weatherly, also a shapeshifter, appeared years later to seek revenge against Jerry Lewis.

## Powers and abilities

Originally, Fauntleroy was a master of disguise. Later, his adoptive brother-in-law Augustus Raven gave him the ability to alter his facial features to disguise himself as other villains, such as Mandy, Tuesday Tate, Inga Bittersweet, Marco Lumiere, Nadia, Candy Sweet, Ariel, Simon Tucker, Geraldine Husk, Mindy, Dominique, and Caitlin. Most importantly, he can also mimic voices. He can be hurt by flame, ice, electric net, or taser, and has trouble maintaining a disguise in low temperatures, but appears to be able to repair damage simply by shapeshifting into an undamaged form.

## Quotes

* Let me make one thing clear: I didn't come here out of goodness of my heart. I will help you three because I want you three to alive, not dead, so I can have my shot at destroying three of you. And no other villains is going to take that chance away from me. (Fauntleroy, coming to rescue of Samantha, Alexandra, and Clover during the battle against Helga Von Guggen.)
* So it's true after all. There's no strong family resemblance at all! She's not the biological daughter of Clyde and Nancy Weatherly, Clyde and Nancy Weatherly had only one daughter! And what of the timing of all this? The deadline in the will expires in less than a month! Suddenly some girl arrives with a letter from her recently deceased mother claiming that Clyde Weatherly is her biological father? Highly suspect!
