Player: Mary | toonish Character: Rapunzel Canon: Tangled (Most likely post-series, pre-wedding) Age: 20 Bio Blurb: (Here's the film, here's the series.)
When Rapunzel's then-pregnant mother - the queen of a kingdom called Corona - got sick, the cure was a magical flower grown from a drop of sunlight. The problem with that? The flower was being used by the witch Gothel to stay young forever, with the help of a healing incantation. Rapunzel was born with golden hair that carried the same healing and youth-restoring power the flower once had, and so she was kidnapped by Gothel, and raised for 18 years in a tower. During those years, Rapunzel befriended a chameleon, got skilled in a number of crafts and hobbies, and got very, very bored. Most notably, though, she saw the lanterns that her true parents launched in the sky on her birthday each year, hoping that they'd lead the Lost Princess home. And Rapunzel was drawn to these lights, but Gothel filled her with fear of the outside world through lies and manipulation, and never allowed her to leave the tower.
It was when Rapunzel's 18th birthday was nearing that her tower was compromised; a thief called Flynn Rider tried to use it as a hiding place. This ultimately resulted in he and Rapunzel going on a trip to the kingdom, falling in love, discovering that Rapunzel was the lost princess, and defeating Gothel.
Adjusting to life back as a princess wasn't easy for Rapunzel, and so when adventure called in the form of mysterious black rocks that restored her long hair but (usually) not its powers, she was okay with that! Of course, that adventure lead to a lot of danger, no fewer than two friends betraying Rapunzel but ultimately making things right, a while spent on a semi-deserted island, the discovery of a moondrop counterpart to the sundrop... It's been a while ride for Rapunzel. Ultimately, that ride left her ready for life as royalty, though her adventurous ways will never leave her. And hey, she and Eugene finally got engaged by the end of it all!
Personality Blurb: Rapunzel carries the light of the sun in her, and it shows in her bright and loving personality. She's an optimist and she puts her all into everything - especially helping others. She's also remarkably resilient, being all of these things despite her unhappy upbringing. She's pure of heart, but not purely sweetness. She has a playful, even mischievous side, and also is naive, even after all her experience outside of the tower. She's intelligent and talented. Sometimes, Rapunzel will put others well-being before her own to the point that she doesn't help anyone, and she can be reluctant to admit when things are going wrong for her, personally.
Preferred Essence(s): Apollo (Greek Mythology) He's the god of the sun, plus truth, music, dance, healing, light, poetry... A lot of things that fit Rapunzel. Looking For: Others who can be both a healer and an active hero
Appearance:Here she is in the last episode of the series. I don't think much would change, but I may play with making her outfit more Grecian.
Abilities: -Healing powers, although I can't really decide how I want those to work so suggestions are welcome -Summoning a bow and arrow, with a knowledge of how to use them -Summoning musical instruments? This serves no real purpose other than that she'd have a lot of fun with it! -Being able to make objects a temporary light source - Yes, like the DnD spell -It's tempting to play with the prophecy thing but I have no idea how I'd make that work. If anyone has suggestions I'd love to hear them, otherwise I'll skip it! -Might develop more idea for post-campaign gains down the line.
Quirks: Gonna skip this for Raps!
Goal:To play someone with more than one brain cell. No but really, I've played Rapunzel on various sites since Tangled came out ten years ago, and she's a favorite. I'd love to see what she can bring to the Index! Extra: Who let her be so cute?
