L

L is the main protagonist in The Magic Portal. He's the most immature, gets into trouble all the time and is still learning the ropes. He doesn't think things through properly, and generally spends most of his time running from trouble or getting told off by his superior officer, Captain Paranoia.

L was voiced by Ingle Knight who literally recorded two thirds of our heroic LEGOnaut's dialogue in one, continuous first take. All of it was off the top of his head, seeing the images for the very first time. All Ingle knew was that he was performing the voice for a student film that used LEGO. At the time I was a bit stunned - so THAT'S professionalism. Bloody hell. I'll take a dozen! Ingle read my mind. I don't know how he did it - but he voiced L exactly as I'd imagined him to sound, except much better. Outside talent and experience - really, there's no substitute. I'm sure the spontaneity makes L come alive.

Biography
When P tries to get L's attention, L ignores him and continues walking. Suddenly, L sees an arch of color changing bricks. On the side of it he first stands on, the arch is clear. But on the other side is a dark passage. When L goes through, he's in another world depicting a red, yellow, and white labyrinth. Strange red brick-like creatures approach and generate a car. When L takes off in the car, the creatures pass through the portal.

L suddenly stops at a striped gate and is passed by another group of red entities, before a monster appears behind a wall that's far behind him. As soon as the gate opens, the monster busts through the wall and almost gets L. Once the gate closes, L squeezes through and the closed gate blocks the monster, only for it to break through and chase after L. He makes it to a train track where the monster is stopped by the barrier. A train then comes and L struggles to get unstuck. He gets unstuck just in time but the railroad damages his car causing it to break down.

The portal is up ahead but the monster was following L again. However, it doesn't eat L, it eats his car and goes for the car's last wheel as L faints. After the monster leaves, L goes through the portal and returns to the ship. When L tries to tell Captain Paranoia about what happened but gets kicked out for interupting his nap. So L instead explains it to P. And when he tries to show him, the portal is gone.

When the portal reappears in another room, all three of them (followed by the Plasticine) go through the portal. The portal now lead to their maker's house, where L meets the Plasticine. When Captain Paranoia tries to shoot her, L stops him and P tells him off. Shortly after they were ambushed by a squad of robots called the Liquid Paper Daleks. They all flee through an emergency exit, where several problems occur.

When they make it to the bottom floor they enter a white shoe. L drives as they're being chased outside by the same monster from before. They hide behind a plant and duck and cover. Though the monster passes by, they're shortly after being chased by it again. They make it into the garage and crash into the set for their ship, before the monster hits a camera. Once Lindsay rebuilds everything and places the characters where they belong, L resumes his work.
