to get his message across.
Of course, this rarely works, and as a result he ends up having to bite the bullet and whisper into another bear's ear what he was trying to say.

, who manipulates a lonely boy named Nicholas into helping her rid the world of caring. Voiced by Jackie Burroughs.
Playing on the ambitions of a lonely girl named Christy at her summer camp, Dark Heart promised to make her more popular if she helped her capture the Care Bears. During one incident, Dark Heart lost his balance on a canoe and fell into the water, prompting Christy to pull him out. Startled that she would save him, Dark Heart continued on his mission but was still puzzled over the rescue.
Finally successful in capturing the Care Bears and Cousins, Dark Heart was confronted by Christy, her fellow campers John and Dawn, and the founders of the Care Bears/Cousins True Heart and Noble Heart. After seeing she was willing to lose her popularity to help her friends, Dark Heart took away what he gave her but warned her to run away and save herself. After a fierce fight, the Care Bears and Cousins were freed and Christy was knocked into a coma after successfully rescuing them. Overcome with remorse, Dark Heart begged the Bears to revive her. Uniting together, the Care Bears, Cousins, and John and Dawn chanted together, "We care!" even Dark Heart joined them until he completely lost his evil when Christy woke up. Vowing to do his part to spread caring and friendship in the camp, Dark Heart joined with Christy, John, and Dawn as a new member of the summer camp.
A notable feature of Dark Heart is his ability to shape-shift into various animals ranging from small animals like frogs and foxes, to large ones like dragons and rhinos. His most assumed form is that of an adolescent boy which is now his current form after he lost his evil.
in the Nelvana
episodes.
An evil
wizard who is pained by love and care, No Heart seeks to destroy all the feelings in the world. No Heart wears a magic amulet
which gives him most of his power, including the power to shape-shift into animal
s. When he turns into any animal, he's revealed to have a mouth
. No Heart lives in a dark castle
in the matching storm clouds. Like many other fictional TV villains of the time, No Heart's obsession is world domination
.
He wears a big purple hood and his face was never shown except for his eyebrows and red eyes (it was once mentioned that he can take it off any time he wants to).
His assistant is Beastly, a pig
-like monster
. No Heart often gets angry at Beastly for his repeated failures. One time, No Heart sent a demon to destroy the Care Bears and Care Bear Cousins, but Beastly thwarted it to keep his job. In later episodes, No Heart's niece Shreeky, a girl with purple and teal hair that has a magic mirror and a powerful shriek (hence the name), joins Beastly to help destroy the Care Bears, much to his chagrin. Whenever Beastly does something wrong, Shreeky shrieks or zaps him with her mirror. Shreeky always gets angry with Beastly because he is clumsy. Beastly and Shreeky often appear in Grams Bear's stories as different villains.
No Heart also has an army of Sinister Shadows that roam around his castle. The Shadows are usually sent to help No Heart to rob someone of their feelings, but the Shadows are easily driven away by the Care Bears Stare.
Here is a list of animals he transforms into:
In the episode entitled "Bravest of the Brave", No Heart teams up with a villain named Dr. Fright in order to destroy Care Bears, but in the end, both of them fail. In the episode "Grams Bear's Thanksgiving Surprise" an evil baker named Sour Sam tries to one-up No Heart by making anyone who eats his pies grouchy, but he also lost to the Care Bears.
During the Care Bears episodes that take place on a spaceship called the SS Friendship, No Heart appeared as an Emperor of the Space Pirates, while in episodes which were set in prehistoric times, he made some appearances as a Noheartosaurus (a T-rex
-like dinosaur
).
In the Polish
translation of the Care Bears cartoon he is named Kamienne Serce which literally translates to "Stone Heart", whereas in the Portuguese
, he is named Coração Gelado, which means "Cold Heart". In Finnish
his name is Noita Sydämetön, which means "A heartless witch". No Heart was usually a dark and serious character, but in one episode, where Beastly was covered in Caring Crystals (as a result of a botched mission), he and Shreeky ran around the castle as Beastly tried to hug them. In the episode "I, Robot Heart" It was revealed that No Heart was born on friday the 13th and is more than 200 years old.
Though he fears Shreeky and her wraith, he misses her when she isn't around.

Startled that she would save him, Dark Heart continued on his mission but was still puzzled over the rescue.
Finally successful in capturing the Care Bears and Cousins, Dark Heart was confronted by Christy, her fellow campers John and Dawn, and the founders of the Care Bears/Cousins True Heart and Noble Heart. After seeing she was willing to lose her popularity to help her friends, Dark Heart took away what he gave her but warned her to run away and save herself. After a fierce fight, the Care Bears and Cousins were freed and Christy was knocked into a coma after successfully rescuing them. Overcome with remorse, Dark Heart begged the Bears to revive her. Uniting together, the Care Bears, Cousins, and John and Dawn chanted together, "We care!" even Dark Heart joined them until he completely lost his evil when Christy woke up.

. No Heart often gets angry at Beastly for his repeated failures. One time, No Heart sent a demon to destroy the Care Bears and Care Bear Cousins, but Beastly thwarted it to keep his job. In later episodes, No Heart's niece Shreeky, a girl with purple and teal hair that has a magic mirror and a powerful shriek (hence the name), joins Beastly to help destroy the Care Bears, much to his chagrin. Whenever Beastly does something wrong, Shreeky shrieks or zaps him with her mirror. Shreeky always gets angry with Beastly because he is clumsy. Beastly and Shreeky often appear in Grams Bear's stories as different villains.
No Heart also has an army of Sinister Shadows that roam around his castle. The Shadows are usually sent to help No Heart to rob someone of their feelings, but the Shadows are easily driven away by the Care Bears Stare.
