Jafar: Difference between revisions

==Origin==

Jafar first made his appearance in ''Aladdin'' as the Sultan's power-hungry vizier. In his quest to seek someone suitable to enter the [[Cave of Wonders]], "a diamond in the rough", led him to the street urchin [[Aladdin]]. With Aladdin's help, he would almost acquire an ordinary oil lamp which actually housed an all-powerful [[Genie|genie]]. However, due to unforeseen consequences, Jafar lost the lamp and his quest for power was thwarted unintentionally by Aladdin under the false identity Prince Ali al Ababwaa. But Jafar would not give up and used his parrot companion, [[Iago]], to steal the lamp, becoming the genie's new master and assuming total control over Agrabah using newfound powers he had wished for. He attempted to banish Aladdin to the ends of the Earth but failed as Aladdin showed up for one last showdown. Desperate, Jafar used his final wish to become an all-powerful genie but was tricked into being contained inside a lamp by Aladdin and flung out into the desert by Genie.
