Lieutenant Puffin, also known as General Puffin or just Puffin is the bird and a major protagonist in The Swan Princess, as well as the 1st two sequels, The Swan Princess Christmas and The Swan Princess: A Royal family Tale. He is first seen in the first movie having been shot down in the wing, which Odette heals.
He is one of a few characters that is the craftiest and the most devoted of all characters. He is strict in military arts, hates spies, does not like Jean-Bob's lack of enthusiasm and does not want to feel helpless when helping Odette in trouble. He came all the way from Ireland.
In all three films, he is voiced by Steve Vinovich, being one of only two actors of the first film to reprise his role for both sequels, the other being the late Michelle Nicastro (Odette's speaking voice in the first film, and both speaking and singing in the sequels).
