Brainy

Brainy Smurf is the all-around-brain of the village. He is a Smurf that can be distinguished from the others due to the fact that he wears thick glasses as he is extremely short-sighted. In fact, in the original Belgian version, he was called "Specs Smurf". Brainy Smurf is an avid reader and holds a lot of books in his house. Being very close to Papa Smurf, he is quite arrogant and often lectures Smurfs who don't behave, and threatens to tattle on them to Papa Smurf. A lot of the other Smurfs dislike him, and when he enters into a long lecturing, some frustrated Smurf would angrily smash him on the head with a big wooden mallet.

Dreamy (aka Astro)

Dreamy Smurf often starglazed in the sky at night. His dream was leaving the planet to venture into other planets. He tried to ask assistance from Papa Smurf with his magic knowledge, but it proved to be over-difficult. Dreamy Smurf then decided to use scientific methods: he would make a giant space rocket that would "propel him to the stars". After having worked several weeks on his rocket (that was wooden), he prepared himself in a white jumpsuit and a glass bowl as an astronaut attire, therefore becoming Astro Smurf. Alas, the rocket was powered only by his sole manpower on pedals that made a propeller turn, which of course was absolutely inefficient, not even making the rocket move. Saddened, Astro Smurf gave up, becoming depressed. The Smurfs took pity on him, so they decided to give him an illusion of his dream coming true.

Papa Smurf told him that they fixed the rocket so that it would really work and fly to space. Astro Smurf, excited, went to his wooden shuttle. Before this, Papa Smurf made him drink a sleeping potion (pretending it was to give him strength). As Astro Smurf "departed", the Smurfs shaked the rocket and set on smoke to give the impression he really flied in the sky. Astro Smurf then felt asleep due to the potion.

Papa Smurf then talked about his plan: the Smurfs would take the rocket apart, transporting it and Astro Smurf to the inside of a dead volcano so that it gives a "planetary" setting for him. As they arrived to the volcano, Papa Smurf gave all the smurfs a mutating potion that turned them orange-skinned, white-lipped and bushy-black-haired. It was to give the impression they were aliens on the planet, and they called themselves the "Schlips", dressing like Tropical natives.

Astro Smurf awakened on the pseudo-planet, then encountered them, which was like a new world to him. He was so happy that he intended to stay with them forever. Papa Smurf (as Papa Schlips, leader of the schlips) was annoyed by this, so he decided that Astro Smurf should pass several trials if he wanted to be admitted as a Schlips. Astro Smurf passed almost all of them, though the last one was about spending years working as a slave. Not wanting to bear that, Astro Smurf decided to go back home. "Papa Schlips" gave him sleeping potion again, so that they could bring him back to Smurf village after returning to normal from their Schlips aspect.

Astro Smurf "returned", and having lived a great adventure, he said that he was now satisfied to live here on Earth, to much of the Smurfs' relief.

Grouchy

Grouchy Smurf wasn't "grouchy" to begin with. At first, he was a regular, nameless Smurf, who appeared in the beginning of the very first Smurfs comics volume: "The Dark Smurfs". In this adventure, a flying insect called the "Bzz" Fly stings smurfs, turning them dark-skinned and insane. Grouchy Smurf was the first one being stung, and, being maddened under the Fly's venom, he went to bite the other Smurfs, transmitting them his condition and making other rabid-like Dark Smurfs like him.

After a huge confrontation, all the Smurfs managed to be healed from the venom thanks to a special flower pollen that Papa Smurf made. The only Smurf who didn't really get back to normal was Grouchy Smurf, as being the one who was the longest under the "Bzz" Fly's toxins, his personality got damaged and he became the Grouchy Smurf we know today, always complaining, frowning, his hands tightened in fists, and always saying "I don't like (any object he hears the name)".

Still, Grouchy Smurf sometimes managed to overcome his antisocial mental status, especially in "The Baby Smurf" adventure. Baby Smurf being delivered by mistake by a stork, he had to be taken back but Grouchy Smurf strangely developed strong affection towards Baby Smurf; he ran away with him in the forest, taking the best care for him despite the dangers and the weather. Baby Smurf getting sick, he had to return to the village, in tears, yet the Smurfs were sympathetic towards him and didn't hold any grudge, being touched by his unusual caring attitude.

Handy

Happy

Harmony

Hefty

Hefty Smurf is the strongest Smurf. He has a heart tattoo on his arm. Hefty Smurf is also an active sportsman, whose favorite activity is weightlifting. He tends to be a bit brutal, as he's the one hitting the most often Brainy Smurf.

Jokey (aka Prisoner)

Jokey Smurf is a happy-go-lucky Smurf, and he enjoys most of the time playing tricks on the other Smurfs, his favorite target being Brainy Smurf. Jokey Smurf almost always uses the same joke trick: yellow-red-wrapped present boxes that he offers to his victims, saying it is a gift. The present box actually holds a firecracker that explodes when the receiver opens it, puffing out a lot of black smoke that blackens the bearer's face.

Jokey Smurf's tricks eventually wore out, as most of the Smurfs now got used to his jokes and know about the exploding present box. The only one who still accepts the presents (willingly?) are Brainy Smurf and Dopey Smurf.

Still, Jokey Smurf starred as the main character in the album "The Jewel Smurfer". In it, he gets taken away by humans who force him to steal jewels and other wealth from rich people, being dressed in a black catsuit and a mask, but still keeping his white cap on.

Painter

Painter Smurf isn't just a painter. He is active in most visual arts. Wearing a red jacket with a black tie, he is seen either doing a painting or a sculpture.

Papa

Poet

Reflection

Reflection Smurf (actually is unnamed)is the 100th Smurf in the village, as at first, the Smurfs were really 99 in numbers. He used to be Vanity Smurf's reflection, as the name says. He came to life after a lighting bolt stroke a mirror Vanity Smurf made himself. The reflection did everything Vanity did, but in reverse, including his talking. Being rejected by Vanity Smurf for being a nuisance, he felt lonely and tried to get back in the mirror he came out, but as he crashed through it, he turned to a normal Smurf not doing anything reverse anymore. Reflection Smurf then came back to the village and was accepted as a regular Smurf, Vanity Smurf acknowledging him as his "twin Smurf".

Robot

Robot Smurf is a wooden automaton who was built by Handy Smurf. Despite the current technology (it is the Middle-age), he is capable of feelings and morality. Robot Smurf's favorite trick is eating smilax leaves and turning them into smilax hot soup, giving them to his fellow Smurfs.

Gargamel eventually found Robot Smurf and replaced him with a double, replacing his smilax decoction with a mutating potion that turned most of the Smurfs who drank it into misshapen monsters. The Smurfs came to get an antidote and succeeded, while Robot Smurf defeated his doppelganger into a personal combat.

Sassette

Scaredy (aka Brave)

Sleepy

Slouchy

Smurfette

Smurfette is the main female Smurf. She has more delicate features than the other Smurfs, has long blonde wavy hair, longer eyelashes, wears a white dress and white high heels. She is the love interest of almost every Smurf (even Papa Smurf!). Little do viewers know about the origins of Smurfette, the main female Smurf in the village. In comic book volume 2: "The Smurfette", we learn that she was actually magically created by Gargamel so that she would use her charms to raise jealousy and competition among the smurfs in order to cause their fall. It didn't work well at first, as her appearance was flawed, looking boyish and unattractive, proving to be more annoying than seductive. Papa Smurf took pity in her, and practiced plastic surgery on her for several days in order to make her the beautiful and appealing Smurfette the other Smurfs know today. This time, she caused almost every Smurf of the village to fall in love with her. Alas, it did cause violence and jealousy as scheduled by Gargamel, putting chaos amongst the Smurfs who competed into winning Smurfette's heart. Smurfette was put in a trial, yet she was declared not guilty. Still, she felt sorry for the trouble she caused and ran away in the forest, coming back occasionally, eventually establishing herself in the village permanently.

Snappy

Sneezy

Sneezy Smurf is a Smurf who is very cold-sensitive. Always shivering, he is always wrapped in a big scarf. Despite wearing several thick warm clothes, he still can't get over his permanent flu, making him sneeze often. It seems his body itself is cold-generating, as carrying soft drinks keeps them fresh, and when trying to blow soap bubbles, he blows ice cubes instead!

Tailor

Timid

Tracker

Vanity

Vanity is an effeminate and stylish Smurf, most of the time wearing a flower on his hat. He loves feminine things, acts delicately, and often holds a hand mirror where he stars at his reflection.

Some readers mistook him for a female.
