Around Naomi's neck, she wears a patchwork choker necklace decorated with three turquoise gemstones dangling from the front.

## Role in the series

Naomi is a supporting character in the series and serves as a member of the Grand Council of Avalor, haven been chosen by Elena for her pragmatism and perseverance. Through the course of the show, Naomi often accompanies Elena on her adventures and assists her in Royal Duties in any way she can.

Since she lived and worked at the port all her life, Naomi is very skilled with ropes, knots, and nets, This makes her a bit stronger than an average female. She also has an eye for detail, such as noticing two warning glyphs in one episode. Similar to Sofia's struggles to prove herself a princess, Naomi believes she must work hard to prove herself as a member of the Grand Council because of her commoner status.

In the prologue of *Elena and the Secret of Avalor*, Elena shows Naomi Shuriki's broken wand and tells her the story of how Sofia freed Elena from the Amulet of Avalor and helped her reclaim Avalor from the sorceress.

In the ending of the special, after hearing the story, Naomi and Elena decide to lock Shuriki's wand in the treasury where it will be safe.

In the episode, "My Fair Naomi", Elena helps Naomi prepare for her sixteenth birthday, or as Elena puts it, a Quinceañera plus one, but when Esteban is able to convince Naomi to make it a big, Royal Quinceañera instead in order to save face with the public regarding it, it results in Naomi driving away Elena, Gabe, and Mateo, especially with some of her choices, such as her large, crinoline dress for the celebration, and the one she had Elena try on. When Luisa brings up how a Quinceañera celebrates not just the birthday girl, but her family and friends as well during the party, Naomi realizes her mistakes and makes amends with her friends, allowing them to return and enjoy the party, where Naomi is joined by her parents as well.

Later on, Naomi has her parents take the Royal Family of Avalor to Nueva Vista for summer vacation, only for her parents to spot Sirenas in the water and attempt to attack them. Naomi herself had good reason to not like the Sirenas. Her grandfather had been on a ship that was sunk by them sometime before she was born, and as a result, she had developed a deep hatred of them. However, later on, the Sirenas are able to aid Elena with defeating Shuriki for good, but Naomi still shows hostility to them as Elena plans a summit to sign a peace treaty with Sirena King Pescoro. When the summit fails due to a Sirena interrupting the ceremony by singing, Naomi seems content with what happened as she and Elena head for home, but when Sirena Crown Princess Marisa arrives to reveal her family has been taken prisoner by their sworn enemies, the malandros, Naomi reveals her reasons for hating the Sirenas to Elena, and still refuses to help them when Elena intends to do so herself. However, after Elena is able to save the Sirenas and their Kingdom of Coronado from the malandros and drive them off, Naomi agrees to put her prejudice of them aside and give them a chance as Elena and Pescoro complete the summit and sign the treaty to signify a newfound friendship and alliance between the humans and Sirenas of Avalor.

Naomi later gets into another argument with Elena over the future of the Nueva Vista Harbor Lighthouse that was built by King Raul. Naomi wants to have it dismantled, but Elena wanted to preserve it and make it taller for the ships further out in the harbor to see. Unable to come to a compromise, Elena storms off in anger. However, later on, she finds Naomi again, and both girls apologize for their earlier argument and find a compromise to both their ideas with having the lighthouse moved to a higher cliff, that way, the ships further out in the harbor will be able to see it. With both in agreement, they head off, friends once more after finding a compromise that they both could agree on.

Naomi continues to help Elena and serve on her Grand Council, until the events of "The Magic Within", where Naomi learns of Esteban's betrayal with aiding Shuriki in her original takeover. Furious with Esteban over his treason from over 40 years ago, Naomi votes with Elena and Luisa to have him stripped of his position as Chancellor and place on the Grand Council, along with exiling him from Avalor for the rest of his life, despite Francisco being against the idea as he was willing to forgive his grandson, but was overruled by the majority of the vote.

Naomi later leaves Avalor to travel the seas on her own ship at the end of "The Last Laugh" with Elena's blessing, but upon learning of Ash and Esteban forming a new team of magical villains against Elena in "Giant Steps", and a reward for catching Tziloco, Naomi heads back to Avalor to warn Elena. When they confront another villain who refused to join Ash in Vallaestrella, Kizin, a trap Elena had set for Kizin fails due to Naomi, and Elena gets her arm broken in the process. Once Naomi explains why she came back, Elena scolds her for putting her own needs and the reward money for Tziloco above those of Avalor. After the two make amends and capture Kizin together with help from Gabe, Mateo, and the Jaquins, Naomi announces her intent to stay in Avalor, and Elena welcomes her back with open arms.

Later on, in "Crash Course", Mateo asks Elena to pick up a vital ingredient he needs to make more tamboritias to arm the best of the Royal Guards under Gabe with to prepare for facing Ash and Esteban in the future since all his spare ones were destroyed previously by a previous attack on Avalor, and Naomi joins Elena in finding the ingredient, joined by Dona Paloma for the journey. When they find the bush, Paloma takes the entire thing, triggering a storm. After confessing that she wanted to be named the new Chancellor of Avalor after Elena stripped Esteban of the position and disowned him, Naomi and Elena work to replant the bush and stop the storm, before Naomi takes only one branch per the instructions to take with them back to Avalor. They return just after Mateo had ensured a mistake with a spell the Royal Guards tried to fix earlier themselves was remedied before Naomi or Elena could notice it.

In the series finale, "Coronation Day", when Naomi learns that Ash and Esteban are in Nueva Vista and threatening the Sirenas in Coronado, she goes with Elena to confront them, and is helped by Marisa with subduing all of Ash's allies, save for Esteban, showing Marisa and Naomi on much better terms since Naomi put her grudge against the Sirenas for her grandfather's death behind her previously. After Elena is dragged into the Spirit World with Ash, Naomi returns to Avalor to aid Isabel in defending it from Esteban and the Four Shades of Awesome. They succeed in sending one of the Shades back to the Spirit World by turning the power of lightning that Hetz wielded back on him, and upon Elena's return with reinforcements, take down two more, but Cahu the Time Shade proves to be the most dangerous of them, managing to turn Gabe and Mateo to stone right in front of Elena's eyes. Not wanting Naomi and Isabel to meet the same fate, Elena has Naomi take Isabel to safety while she lures Cahu away with Skylar. Naomi and Isabel safely get away thanks to Elena's distraction. When Elena forgives Esteban later, her magic allows her to undo all of the damage the Shades wrought on Avalor, restoring Gabe and Mateo to flesh and blood, much to Isabel and Naomi's relief. After Elena and Esteban then banish Cahu back to the Spirit World to join the other Shades, Elena's coronation is able to go on as planned. After Sofia the First and her family arrive from Enchancia just in time to attend the ceremony as well, Elena is crowned Queen of Avalor. Afterwards, she speaks to Naomi and names her the new Chancellor of Avalor. Naomi is hesitant to accept, but with support from Esteban and Dona Paloma, who grant their blessings to her, Naomi accepts. Naomi then joins in the celebratory dance that follows.
