Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom

**Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom** was an interactive game attraction for the Magic Kingdom that debuted on February 22, 2012 in which Pocahontas served as a guide and game card. The game focuses on Merlin recruiting park guests as new apprentice sorcerers and sending them out to battle various Disney villains, recruited by Hades, throughout the park's themed lands (except Tomorrowland) using special spell cards.

On January 7, 2021, it was announced that the game would be shut down as a result of "changes in guest use of mobile technology" and a general decline in interest, with the game's final day being January 24.

## Role In the Game

Pocahontas serves as a guide for one round of the game in Frontierland in which the player must defeat Governor Ratcliffe who is among Hades' recruits.

The player will meet up with Merlin who's on the river and welcomes the player. He's suddenly bombarded with spells and explains, "It seems I'll busy dealing with Hades' factions here on the river. In the meantime, this land is in great peril. Pocahontas will fill you in on the details for me. Good luck!" The player is then turned over to Pocahontas who explains to the player that it's happened again that her dreams have shown people coming and destroying the land, "but something's telling me that you are the one who will stop them." She further explains that Ratcliffe is leading them. Hades (in the guise of Lord Indigo of the East Underworld Trading Company), visits Ratcliffe in jail and offers him a deal that will allow him to gain his freedom from jail and control over all of Frontierland in exchange for him finding the crystal of the Magic Kingdom.

Afterwards, Merlin sends the player on their way to the next portal explaining that Pocahontas will meet them there and continue to serve as their guide. Pocahontas explains that there's something strange about these men "they're not like the other soldiers." The player is then shown to a drum-playing soldier. Upon seeing them, the soldier greets them with "Ah, a sorcerer! Okay, it's magic time!" and the battle begins. Upon defeat, the soldier is revealed to be Pain and Panic in disguise. Pocahontas congratulates the player for their victory, "But still, many men have already reached the frontier. Unless you stop them, I fear they will cause much destruction." She then sends the player to the next portal saying, "Your path must lead you to this place. Find it and continue with courage."

At the next portal, Pocahontas explains that Ratcliffe and his men have set up camp in the great frontier. The player is then shown the camp where Ratcliffe looks out of his tent and orders, "Secure the ammunition! We level the area at daybreak. I don't care if it drives every living thing into the sea. I will have that crystal!" and goes back in in panic as the crystal hasn't been found, "Lord Indigo hasn't even told me what the crystal looks like and that soldier he sent to help me still hasn't arrived." Pocahontas then tells the player, "You must destroy their weapons. It's the only way." Merlin replies, "Right you are, Pocahontas." and instructs the player to use the Sorcerer's Crest to destroy the ammunition "That's the symbol found on the back of your spell cards." The player then uses the Sorcerer's Crest which successfully destroys the ammunition with a blast of magic. Pocahontas congratulates the player again, "But the spirit in those flames was strange and angry. I've never seen anything like it." She then sends the player to the next portal saying, "I fear the flames were a sign. Follow your path to this place and find the source of it."

At the next portal, Pocahontas alerts the player that Ratcliffe has taken Meeko hostage to try to get Pocahontas to find the crystal for him. The player is shown Ratcliffe imprisoning Meeko in a bag. He spots the player and sends a barrel of gun powder at them. The player then engages in a magic battle with him. Mid-battle, Ratcliffe threatens, "Stand down or, so help me, I'll drop this rodent into the river." But it's revealed that Meeko escaped as Ratcliffe hadn't secured the bag. Pocahontas and Merlin then instruct the player to finish the battle. The player uses one last spell and Ratcliffe is sent overboard. Pocahontas thanks the player for saving the day. On a raft to Tom Sawyer Island, Merlin, Pocahontas, and Meeko congratulate the player as Merlin sends the player to their next mission.

## Spell Card

Pocahontas also had her own spell card in the game called Pocahontas's Colors of the Wind. When activated, it will send a magical whirlwind of leaves at the villain. It's a Princess Spell classified as Wishful.
