There is speculation that Lord Farquaad's appearance was inspired by Michael Eisner, the then–CEO of The Walt Disney Company, because of producer Jeffrey Katzenberg's animosity toward his former employer.
Lord Farquaad first appears in the 2001 animated fantasy film Shrek as the dictatorial ruler of Duloc, which he attempts to rid of fairy-tale creatures. This sets the film's central plot in motion.
He is very opprobrious, despicable and abhorrent, so he loathes creatures of any kind and sought to relocate the fairytale creatures to Shrek's swamp. He attempts to cut a deal with Shrek by promising to remove the fairy tale creatures from his swamp if Shrek could bring Fiona to him, as he wanted to marry her.
After his humiliation, Fiona is transformed and the show continues in the same manner as the movie, with Farquaad proclaiming himself king and subsequently being killed by the Dragon (except that, in this version, Dragon kills him with her fire breath instead of eating him).
Who is banned to the from the kingdom by Lord Farquaad?
Shrek, an ogre, lives alone in a swamp, but his solitude is disrupted by a band of fairytale creatures. They have been banned from the Kingdom of Duloc by Lord Farquaad, who exiled them for being freaks.
Many of them commented that Efron looked like 'the long lost brother' of Lord Farquaad, the villain in the first Shrek movie, who is characterized by his short stature and haircut style.
As Shrek's nemesis Lord Farquaard (John Lithgow) spoke with a posh English accent, Myers revealed in an interview that he wanted Shrek to seem “working class” in comparison.
Just then, Lord Farquaad arrives to claim Fiona. He hands over the deed to Shrek's swamp and makes plans to marry Fiona that night. Hurt, Fiona accepts and leaves with him. The Fairy Tale Creatures drudge on, having been evicted from the swamp.
Had Lord Farquaad succeeded in Shrek, Duloc would have become a kingdom and surely enjoyed years of prosperity through Farquaad's line of succession. However, Farquaad's reign was cut short and Duloc was eventually abandoned. Duloc Castle still stands, however, as a lasting monument to Farquaad's Napoleon complex.
In Shrek the Musical, it is claimed that Fiona was imprisoned in a tower on Christmas Eve when she was 7 years old. She spent at least 16 years in that tower until Shrek rescued her. She was rescued at age 23.
Farquaad is an insensitive and uncompromising perfectionist who saw that everything had to be done his way and the only way for Duloc to become perfect was to exile all of the fairytale creatures.
Tinker Bell is a minor character who first appeared in Shrek. She is based on the same character from J.M. Barrie's play Peter Pan, or the Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up. In the first film, Tinker Bell is being sold by Peter Pan to the Duloc Guards.
After seeing King Harold's funeral, Prince Charming goes to The Poison Apple and organizes an army of villains who don't trust him at first due to him being presented as a hero: Captain Hook, Stromboli, Headless Horseman, Evil Queen, Evil Trees and Witches - all upset that they haven't gotten their "Happily Ever After" ...
Another factor causing lack of acceptance can be found in Shrek the Third, where it is revealed that Shrek's father tried to eat him ("I guess I should have seen it coming. He used to bathe me in barbecue sauce and put me to bed with an apple in my mouth.").
Farquaad was a major part of the first Shrek movie as the main antagonist for Shrek (Mike Myers), and appeared as a ghost in the spinoff ride Shrek 4-D, which was confirmed to be canon by Dreamworks despite plot contradictions.
