What Is Descendants?
Descendants is a Disney Channel musical franchise set in a world where the children of famous Disney villains and heroes live side by side. The premise is simple and brilliant: what if Maleficent had a daughter? What if the Evil Queen’s kid just wanted to make beautiful clothes? What if growing up in the shadow of a villain parent didn’t make you a villain yourself?
The original Descendants (2015) introduced Mal, Evie, Jay, and Carlos – the children of Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Jafar, and Cruella De Vil, respectively – as they leave the Isle of the Lost (where all the villains and their families have been banished) to attend Auradon Prep, the school for heroes’ children. Descendants 2 (2017) brought Uma, daughter of Ursula, into the spotlight as a complex and compelling antagonist. Descendants 3 (2019) wrapped up that generation’s story with the original core four facing their biggest challenge yet.
Descendants: The Rise of Red (2024, Disney+) launched a new generation with Red, the fiercely independent daughter of the Queen of Hearts, and Chloe Charming, the optimistic daughter of Cinderella and Prince Charming. Together, they time-travel to the past to prevent a catastrophe – and along the way, Red begins to understand her mother in ways she never expected.
The collection on this page spans all four films, giving fans of every era something to color.
Meet the Characters
The Original Four (Descendants 1–3)
Mal is the daughter of Maleficent and the emotional heart of the original trilogy. She leads the group with a quiet intensity – creative, guarded, deeply loyal once she trusts you. Her signature look is purple hair with green ombre tips, and her outfits run almost entirely in deep purples, blacks, and forest greens – the colors of Maleficent’s dark magic. In her dragon form, she becomes one of the most dramatic images in the whole franchise.
Evie is the daughter of the Evil Queen and arguably the most fashion-forward character in the entire collection. She is warm, kind, and wickedly talented at design – and her look is all cobalt blue and crimson red, from her signature blue hair to her red-and-blue outfits with gold accessories. Evie’s pages reward careful attention to the costume details, which are elaborate even by Descendants standards.
Jay is the son of Jafar – athletic, competitive, and more loyal than he initially lets on. His color palette runs in deep burnt orange, warm gold, and rich burgundy red, inspired by Agrabah’s desert tones refracted through an Isle of the Lost streetwear aesthetic. The Jay pages in this collection are some of the best for fans who like dynamic, action-forward compositions.
Carlos is the son of Cruella De Vil, and his hair tells the whole story: black on one side, white on the other, exactly like his mother’s iconic look, but worn with a gentleness that couldn’t be more different from Cruella’s cruelty. His outfits blend black and white with occasional red accents. Carlos is one of the most beloved characters in the franchise, and his pages tend to be handled with particular care by fans who color them.
The Extended Cast (Descendants 2–3)
Uma is the daughter of Ursula and one of the most visually striking characters in the franchise. Her aesthetic is deep teal and aqua, ocean-washed and sea-witch dramatic, with hints of purple that echo her mother’s palette. Uma arrives as an antagonist in Descendants 2 and earns a more complicated role as the story progresses – and her pages, particularly the Rise of Red version, capture that evolution.
Audrey is the daughter of Sleeping Beauty’s Aurora and begins the trilogy as a quintessential Auradon princess – soft pink, gold, and pale blonde, all sweetness and royal polish. By Descendants 3, she becomes something far more interesting when her story takes a dramatic turn, and the color palette shifts accordingly.
Jane is the daughter of the Fairy Godmother – earnest, eager, and one of the most endearing supporting characters in the franchise. Her palette is soft and light, pale lavender and light blue, in contrast to the bolder Isle of the Lost kids.
Lonnie is the daughter of Mulan – confident, sporty, and one of Auradon Prep’s most capable students. Her coloring page at the Auradon Coronation is one of the more detailed formal-wear pages in the collection, with a Chinese-inspired outfit rendered in red and gold.
Doug is the son of Dopey and Evie’s love interest – sweet, slightly awkward, and sincerely kind. His palette is warm earth tones and denim blues, very much the Auradon Prep student compared to the Isle of the Lost kids’ more dramatic looks.
The Rise of Red Generation (2024)
Red is the daughter of the Queen of Hearts – and if you know her mother, you might expect a villain. What you get instead is a young woman who is intensely passionate, fiercely principled, and genuinely good-hearted in a way that surprises everyone who has already made up their mind about her. Her look is unmistakably her own: brilliant scarlet red hair, a wardrobe built almost entirely in red, black, and white playing-card graphics, with hearts as her recurring motif. She is one of the most colorful and visually distinctive characters in the entire franchise.
Chloe Charming is the daughter of Cinderella and Prince Charming – and where Red is all fire and red, Chloe is light: warm blonde hair, soft pink and gold outfits, a cheerful energy that makes her the optimistic counterpoint to Red’s intensity. Chloe is kind, a little sheltered by her perfect fairy-tale upbringing, and genuinely brave when it matters.
Bridget is the Queen of Hearts – and one of the most important reveals in The Rise of Red is that her name, before everything went wrong, was simply Bridget. The film gives her a backstory that recontextualizes everything about her character, and the Bridget page captures her at a moment before she became the villain that the fairy tales remember. Her coloring calls for the full Queen of Hearts palette: deep red, black, and gold, with playing card iconography woven into every costume detail.
What’s Inside the Descendants Coloring Collection
The collection divides naturally across the two eras of the franchise. The Rise of Red pages – Red, Chloe, Bridget, Cinderella, Captain Hook, Uma in her new look, and the Descendants: The Rise of Red poster – represent the newest generation and are the pages fans have been searching for most recently. The original trilogy pages – Mal, Evie, Jay, Carlos, Uma, Audrey, Jane, Lonnie, Doug, and the group shots from Descendants 1–3 – represent the characters that built the franchise’s fanbase over a decade.
The poster and group pages (the Descendants 4 Poster and the New Descendants group page) are wonderful for fans who want to color the full ensemble at once and practice keeping multiple distinct color palettes consistent across a single page. These are genuinely challenging pages in the best way – getting Mal’s purple, Evie’s blue, and Red’s red all looking correct and harmonious against each other requires real color planning.
The solo character pages – Mal, Jay, Evie, the various Evie portrait pages, and Carlos – reward close attention to costume detail. The Descendants costume design is famously elaborate, with embroidery, layering, and accessories that give a patient colorist a lot to work with.
Coloring Tips for Descendants Pages
The single most important thing to know about coloring Descendants pages is that each character owns a specific color family, and staying true to those color assignments is what makes the finished page feel like the franchise. This is a series where the color palette is part of the character identity – fans can identify who someone is from across the room just by the color on the page.
For Mal, commit to purple across the board. Her hair is a deep violet that transitions to forest green at the tips – try layering purple over a base of magenta-leaning violet for the roots, then shifting green for the ombre. Her outfits are best in dark plum and near-black purple, with accent details in deep forest green.
For Evie, blue and red are the combination – specifically, a rich cobalt or royal blue for the hair and primary costume elements, with crimson red as the accent color, and gold for any jewelry or trim. Avoid using too much black; Evie’s palette is more saturated and jewel-like than the darker Isle of the Lost aesthetic.
For Jay, warm orange is the dominant tone, deepened toward burnt sienna and terra cotta in the shadows, with gold and burgundy as accent colors. His pages tend to have a lot of texture and layering in the clothing – treat each layer as a slightly different value of the same warm orange family.
For Carlos, the black-and-white split is the central design challenge. The key is to make the white side feel clean and bright, not gray – use minimal shadowing and keep it very light. The black side can have blue-tinted shadows (cold black reads as more stylized than warm brown-black). Red accents in the clothing pop beautifully against this high-contrast base.
For Red, pure saturated red is the key – not orange-red, not pink-red, but a true primary red. Her hair, especially, should be vivid and bold; this is a character who wears her identity in full color. The black-and-white playing card graphics on her costumes create striking geometric patterns that are very satisfying to fill in cleanly.
For Chloe, soft warm pink as the base, with gold and cream accents. She’s the counterpoint to Red’s intensity – her palette should feel lighter, more sunlit, more like Auradon and less like the Isle of the Lost or Wonderland.
For Bridget / Queen of Hearts, full Wonderland drama: deep true red, ink black, and bright gold, with playing card motifs as recurring detail elements. The Queen of Hearts pages in this collection are some of the most costume-detailed, and they reward layering – build the red in multiple layers to get a deep, rich tone rather than a flat wash.
5 Activities to Do With Your Descendants Pages
Create a “then and now” pair for each character. Choose a character who appears in both the original trilogy pages and the Rise of Red pages – Uma is the best example, with her Descendants 2 look and her Rise of Red appearance. Color both, using the same palette but adjusting the tone slightly to show how the character has evolved. Display them side by side as a before-and-after character study.
Design your own descendant. After coloring the existing cast, create an original character using the Descendants formula: pick a Disney villain parent, think about what their child might look like, and sketch a character on blank paper using the color palette of the parent villain as inspiration. Fans who do this exercise often end up with incredibly creative results – the franchise’s color-coded logic makes it surprisingly structured as a design challenge.
Color-code a character relationship map. Color the solo portrait pages for each character, cut them out, and arrange them on a large piece of cardboard connected by strings or drawn lines that show their relationships – friends, rivals, family, love interests. Use the character’s color as the string color connecting them. This is a visually striking way to map the whole franchise’s social web.
Host a fashion design session. Take one of the simpler portrait pages – Jane, Doug, or Chloe – and instead of following the established color scheme, redesign their entire look in a new palette. What would Chloe look like if she dressed like someone from the Isle of the Lost? What would Carlos look like if he had Mal’s color palette? The constraint of working within the existing linework makes this more interesting than pure free-drawing.
Make a Descendants movie marathon companion kit. Print pages from each of the four films, label them, and use them as coloring activities during a movie marathon – color the original four during Descendants 1, Uma and Audrey during Descendants 2 and 3, and Red and Chloe during The Rise of Red. Each finished page becomes a souvenir of that film, and by the end of the marathon, you have a colored portrait of the full franchise laid out in order.
