They are then stopped by fortune tellers, who are actually Robin Hood and Little John in disguise. During their ride, after briefly reminding Prince John about his mom (causing him distress), he briefly attempts to hypnotize Prince John to help relax him, but John catches on and tells him not to do that. Sir Hiss then traveled with Prince John from town to town, as the greedy Prince taxed the towns into poverty.Īt the time of the film, Sir Hiss is accompanying Prince John to their next stop, the town of Nottingham. Sir Hiss hypnotized the king into going off on the crusades, allowing Prince John to take the crown in his absence. Sometime before the events of the film, Sir Hiss helped Prince John usurp the throne of England from the rightful king, King Richard. Hiss also seems to dislike being called names (and took particular offense when Little John called him "Buster"). Sir Hiss is somewhat immature and pompous, as seen when with his interactions with Little John when the latter was taking a seat in the royal box with Prince John. A running gag throughout the movie is Hiss hissing in Prince John's ear. Nonetheless, he does have some degree of morality, as evidenced by his horror that Prince John was willing to have Friar Tuck, a man of the church, be executed (though mostly because such an act against clergy at the time would warrant retribution from the church), even if it was to lure Robin Hood out of hiding. He is just as heartless as his boss saying that he has an absolute skill for encouraging contributions. Sir Hiss is often compared to Kaa from the film The Jungle Book, as they share similar appearances as well as hypnotic powers. He is often the target of Prince John's temper tantrums, which he usually tries to halt by reminding Prince John about his mother, which never works. After a failed plan, Sir Hiss often complains about how Prince John didn't listen to him, but he is usually punished as a result. He often attempts to warn Prince John of the dangers of his various traps but is rarely listened to. Sir Hiss is the snake henchman of Prince John.
