Jane Porter

Jane is a character from the Deep Jungle world in Kingdom Hearts. She is on an expedition into the jungle in search of gorillas with hunter Clayton. She befriends Tarzan and his gorilla family and protects them from Clayton and the Heartless.

Kingdom Hearts
''A naturalist who's in the jungle with Clayton, her guide, to study gorillas. She met Tarzan in the jungle and is gradually teaching him about human ways. She's courageous and will face any danger for her research.''

Exploring the jungle, she encountered "Tarzan" (1999).

Kingdom Hearts
In Kingdom Hearts, Jane appears to have come alone with Clayton to the jungle, and has already befriended Tarzan. Jane meets Sora when Tarzan arrives at the camp with him and is rather astonished to see he speaks English. Jane and the others are not pleased with Clayton when he tries to shoot a gorilla. Jane is later captured by Heartless, held hostage at the treehouse while Clayton goes to shoot the gorillas. She is freed and later accompanies Sora, Tarzan, Donald and Goofy to the Cavern of Hearts, deep within the waterfalls, where Sora seals the world's Keyhole. Jane figures out Tarzan's continuous making ape sounds meaning "Heart". What becomes of her and Tarzan after the departure of Sora is unknown but it could be said that their lives became like that of the Disney's show, The Legend of Tarzan despite the fact that Porter and Tantor are absent.

Personality
Jane is a kind and friendly person, as one can see as she instantly welcomes Sora, and invites him to stay at the camp. She cares greatly for Tarzan and the gorillas, and is very upset with Clayton over the matter of harming the latter. The gorillas, noticeably Terk, respect her friendship with Tarzan, as the young gorilla is seen huddling with Jane in the climbing trees when the Heartless begin to attack the Jungle's inhabitants. She also seems to have an understanding of the Heart and friendship, as seen when Tarzan mentions that Clayton lost his Heart, along with his friends at the sealing of Deep Jungle's Keyhole.

Appearance
Jane has long, dark brown hair, blue eyes, and seems to wear eyeliner and lipstick. Clothing-wise, she wears a long, brown skirt that reaches to just above her ankles. This skirt is held up by a knot tied on her right side, which exposes most of her right leg. Jane also wears a faded, white tank top.

Origin
In the original film, Tarzan, Jane Porter arrives with her father, Professor Archimedes Q. Porter, and Clayton, their hired guide on the shores of Africa, hoping to research the gorillas living in the area. They set up a camp in a clearing, and quickly begin their work.

Later, Jane attempts to sketch a baby baboon, but as she refuses to let the animal to play with her sketchbook, it begins to cry, attracting the attention of the baboon family. They angrily chase Jane through the jungle, until the track ends at a deep chasm. As she falls, Jane is saved by Tarzan, explains with difficulty to him that her name is Jane, and later returns to the camp, attempting to explain who the wild man was.

Tarzan frequently visits the camp and eagerly learns the English language along with many other facts about the human world. Clayton wants Tarzan to lead him to the gorillas, but is very reluctant to do so. Jane manages to convince him to take them into the jungle, where they meet Tarzan's family. Its is here that Clayton's evil motives are revealed. He attempts to capture the gorillas and take them back to England.

Tarzan, along with help from Jane, the Professor and his animal friends manage to overpower Clayton and his goons, which leads to his demise at his own hands.

One day, Jane and the Professor pack up their camp and are about to head home, but Jane changes her mind, and swims back to the shore, with her father following closely behind. The three of them live happily together in the jungle, using the tree house that Tarzan's parents constructed as a home.
