Skipper

Skipper is the tough, paranoid, yet fiercely loyal leader of the Madagascar penguins, acting like a hardened commando with a soft spot for his team, especially Private; he's suspicious, a skilled fighter, values order, and is known for his catchphrases and a secret fear of needles, often overcoming his flaws for the greater good. Leader: The unquestioned, no-nonsense leader, often barking orders and creating complex (sometimes bizarre) plans. Commando Persona: Acts like a 'Nam veteran, suspicious of outsiders, especially mammals like the zoosters, and always prepared for the worst. Loyalty: Will never leave a penguin behind, even risking his own safety for his team, particularly Private, whom he inspires. Suspicious & Paranoid: Naturally mistrustful, often proven right about threats, sometimes suffering from PTSD-like symptoms. Fearless (Mostly): Generally fears nothing, except needles (trypanophobia) and being called "pudgy". Skills: Talented in combat, singing, and dancing, but also prone to vanity and blaming others (like Private) for his mistakes. Speech: Calls King Julien "Ringtail," Mort "Sad Eyes," and often swears in Korean. Believes women need protecting (1950s persona) and has a complex view on other species. Had a doll bride named Lola but she disappeared. Is extremely ticklish and values order above all else. Voiced by creator Tom McGrath, who also directed the films.
