and organizing games. Their brotherly love usually triumphs over problems, and they usually offer Alice some sensible advice on any problems she may have. The Caterpillar (performed by Wesley Mann) is a large caterpillar and Wonderland's wisest resident. When the Caterpillar speaks, he draws out his vowels in a long, deep voice. As a bug, he has three pairs of hands, which he often uses in tandem to complete tasks. The Caterpillar has a book of wondrous stories, similar to fables in their animal characters and simple morals. The characters often visit the Caterpillar in his mushroom glen to seek advice, which comes in the form of a story. Occasionally, he leaves his patch to visit other Wonderland areas.

Though the Walrus seems different, he is accepted as just another member of the Wonderland gang. Although not really a living breathing character, Crystalvision (Crystal for short) is often seen around Wonderland in various places. Crystal's role in Wonderland is something like that of a
