Dora Marquez
"Dora, the main character, is an eight-year-old girl who embarks on a
trip in every episode in order to find something or help somebody. She
asks the viewers at home to help her find new ways to reach places with
the help of Map. She also teaches viewers Spanish, introducing them to
short words and phrases.
Dora has a positive view of the characters she meets, failing even to
hold a grudge against the mischievous fox, Swiper, who continually
attempts to steal items from her party. She acts against villains only
when it seems that compromise is impossible, and even in these cases,
fails to display actual anger.
She gives others a chance to try their hands at tasks even when she
herself might have an easier time with them. Dora values her family,
whom she loves openly, though she spends little time indoors at home
with them. She tries to introduce her traditions and customs, subtly and
without compulsion, to those who are not familiar with them.
Dora is fond of Boots, who became her best friend when she saved his beloved red boots from being swiped by Swiper.
Dora enjoys sports. She played on a baseball team with Boots and her other friends and was coached by her father (who has never been depicted as having other employment). She loves and excels at soccer. Dora is also a musician, skilled at playing a wooden flute.
The character was voiced by Kathleen Herles until she was replaced by Caitlin Sanchez and replaced with another voice actress Fatima Ptacek.
Dora is a Latina.
Early concepts of Dora had her as a blond girl of European ancestry.
The character was originally based on a niece, Lilli, of Rick Velleu,
one of the creators of the show.
Dora appears to be nearsighted, often calling on the audience for
help locating an object or landmark that is nearby and clearly visible.
However she has never been seen to wear glasses, instead relying on help
from friends and the audience to locate things she cannot see."
