As Jafar's servant, Iago is normally seen on Jafar's shoulder and takes an active role in his master's schemes, such as stealing [[Genie]]'s lamp from [[Aladdin]]. During Jafar's battle with Sora, he holds the lamp to keep it away from the latter, as the lamp was one of the ways to damage Jafar. Iago tries to fly away at the downfall of Jafar, but ended up in the lamp as well.
Shortly after [[Jafar]] succeeds in taking control of [[Agrabah]] with the [[Heartless]], princess [[Jasmine]] manages to escape the palace. Iago is sent to search for her; however, he has no luck in locating the princess. He arrives during Jafar's meeting with [[Maleficent]], informing him about his fruitless search. After Maleficent reminds Jafar of the importance of having all seven [[Princesses of Heart]] along with the [[keyhole]] of this world, Jafar calls upon three [[Bandit]]s to help Iago in the search.
<!--just rewrite for better flow-->
 
When Jafar confronts [[Sora]], [[Donald]], [[Goofy]] and [[Aladdin]] at the palace gates, Iago discreetly manages to steal [[Genie]]'s lamp from them and give it to Jafar, canceling out Aladdin's wish to save Jasmine.
 
Shortly after Jafar uses his last wish to become a genie himself, Iago is forced to carry his new lamp around the Lava Chamber, despite the immense heat. However, Sora manages to take it from him and suck Jafar into the lamp to defeat him. Unfortunately, as Iago attempted to flee, Jafar grabbed him while thrashing around in resistance, trapping them both in the lamp.

Eventually, Iago was free from Jafar's lamp. When he encountered [[Sora]] and the others again, he tried to convince them that he had turned over a new leaf, although only [[Goofy]] seemed to believe him until Iago saved the group from a bunch of Heartless.

Iago wanted to prove to Aladdin that he was no longer a villain. He did so by taking Jafar's lamp from [[Pete]], which proved his loyalty, until Jafar was released and he was forced to trick Sora, [[Donald Duck|Donald]], Goofy, and Aladdin into going to the ruins, thereby destroying any trust he had obtained. When the group returned to [[Agrabah]] to face Jafar, Iago blocked an attack aimed at Aladdin and proved himself a friend again.

==Design==
Iago strongly resembles a plump {{w|scarlet macaw}}. Most of his plumage is red, except for his tail and the tips of the first four feathers on each wing (Iago uses these feathers as "fingers"). Iago's sclera are yellow and his eyes are surrounded by a white, featherless area. He also has a large, yellow-orange beak and orange talons. Iago's talons have three toes arranged in such a way that he has two in the front and one in the back, as opposed to real macaws having four toes, two in the front and two in the back. He has a thick black "uni-brow" and three thin, black feathers sprouting out of the top of his head. Iago's eyes are also set facing forward, unlike any species of macaw (and most species of birds). Arguably the biggest difference between Iago and other birds is the fact that he has straight, white teeth in his beak like a human, and his tongue is rather human-like as well.


==Personality==
==Personality==
Iago is a cowardly parrot, who is often frustrated and vocalizes his anger freely. Iago is scared quite easily, especially by the person he fears the most—Jafar. Iago is very loyal to Jafar, mainly due to the immense fear of punishment he would receive should he fail his master. Although Iago gives off a "tough guy" exterior, he has a good heart, as seen in the second return to Agrabah in ''Kingdom Hearts II,'' when Iago shields Aladdin from one of Jafar's attacks, nearly sacrificing himself.
