Facilier would have been Mama Odie's son, who followed the path of the dark arts, unlike his mother. In this same script, there was to be a showdown between the two of them, which would have converged into a major battle during the Mardi Gras festivities.
He once said that he was born of royalty on his mother's side. This probably means that his mother was a Voodoo Queen like the famous Voodoo priestess Marie Laveau. It is very subtly implied that Doctor Facilier can play the piano because there is one in his Voodoo Emporium.
Mama Odie is a supporting character in Disney's 2009 animated feature film, The Princess and the Frog. She's a blind, 197-year-old voodoo priestess who resides deep in the swamps of Louisiana. Mama Odie is an eccentric, sunny, and wise old woman who has great power and does not use it to grant wishes.

Is Juju Mama Odie's husband?
Very loyal and highly affectionate, Juju is Mama Odie's closest companion, acting as her eyes throughout their hidden home. And although Juju acts as Mama Odie's personal little assistant, he is also treated as her very own child, much like the stereotype that the elderly treat their pets as their own children.
As depicted in this newly released rendering, Mama Odie jokes with guests along their journey after a special display of her magic. The two-hundred-year-old Bayou Fairy Godmother, with her eccentric belongings and “seeing eye snake,” Juju, is comically eccentric, yet wise and all-knowing, throughout the adventure.
Also known as The Shadow Man, Dr. Facilier is an evil witch doctor who practices a dark form of voodoo magic. The other characters in the movie all refer to him as The Shadow Man. Only Dr.
Having come from a poor background, Facilier grew to resent the rich and prosperous—none so much as the most powerful man in the city, Eli "Big Daddy" La Bouff. Facilier sought to supersede his rival using voodoo and pawns while offering the souls of New Orleans' denizens to his "friends" as recompense.
Dr. Facilier as performed by a cast member at Disneyland (Oct 2016) Keith David as Dr. Facilier, also known as the Shadow Man, a voodoo bokor (witch doctor) who plans to rule New Orleans with help from his "friends on the other side" and the major antagonist of the film.
Dr. Facilier (portrayed by Jamal Sims), from The Princess and the Frog, is Freddie and Celia's father. In the book Isle of the Lost, he appears as the principal and one of the teachers at the school of the Isle of the Lost. In the films, he makes an appearance in Descendants 3.
Celia Facilier is the daughter of Dr. Facilier and the younger sister of Freddie Facilier. On the Isle of the Lost, Her father was sucked into a voodoo hell for eternity, Celia worked as a fortune teller and errand-runner for Hades.
He tries to manipulate Tiana into giving him the talisman by promising her the restaurant she longs for, and he isn't happy when she sees through him anyway. He manipulated Lawrence much in the same way, all to get what Dr. Facilier himself wanted the entire time: power and money.
Appearance. Mama Odie is a short old woman with dark wrinkly skin that is a little saggy. She wears a white dress and turban, with a very large gold necklace. She also wears large gold hoop earrings, black sunglasses, a teal ring, and a gold bracelet.
Dr. Facilier : Don't you disrespect me, little man! Don't you derogate, or deride! / You're in my world now, not your world, and I've got friends on the other side... [ushers Naveen and Lawrence into his shop, from which murmurs are heard...]
At some point, James was possibly killed in action (K.I.A.) during the war, so he probably never got to see Tiana get her restaurant. As shown briefly in the film, he was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross (given for extreme gallantry and risk of life in actual combat with an armed enemy force).
His skin is brown, but he isn't African-American. "A lot of moms had issues with that," Coleman said. "It felt like it was a slap in the face to black men." Coleman asked a Disney executive if Prince Naveen was Creole and was told that his background was made up; he's whatever ethnicity they have in fictional Maldonia.
Maldonia is a fictional country mentioned in The Princess and the Frog. It is where Prince Naveen, his mother, father, brother and the rest of the ruling family were born. The name is a portmanteau of the real-life countries of the Maldives and North Macedonia.
Facilier is one of the villains brought back to life to be imprisoned in the Isle of the Lost. He is the founder and headmaster of its school, Dragon Hall. He has two daughters named Freddie and Celia.
Dr. Facilier is the villain in "Princess and the Frog", and Mama Odie is a wise, mysterious voodooiene. She is described as a "Voodoo Queen" by Louis the Alligator.
Disney has replaced the title of “fairy godmothers” for gender-neutral “apprentices” at dress-up boutiques at its U.S. theme parks in an effort to be inclusive, according to the parks' websites.
Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather are the three good fairies in Walt Disney's 1959 film Sleeping Beauty. They are characterized as Princess Aurora's fairy godmothers and guardians, who appear at baby Aurora's christening to present their gifts to her.
