CHARACTER INFORMATION
Character Name: Anna of Arendelle
Age: 19
Canon: Frozen
Canon Point: post-Frozen Fever. I will be apping Anna in without her previous Ryslig memories.
Character Information: wiki link!
Personality:
Rarely does one come across a princess as down-to-Earth as Anna of Arendelle, but she's the honest goods. Raised without much of the pomp and circumstance that normally comes along with being raised as royalty, Anna spent most of her time growing up alone, wandering the castle that was perpetually empty thanks to the closed gates. As such, she's fiercely independent and willing to take matters into her own hands, but also lacks the imperiousness or superiority complex of your typical royalty, which charms and endears her to her subjects. Take, for example, her sister Elsa's escape from Arendelle following her outburst. Instead of seeking help or even asking others to help her, Anna doesn't hesitate in asking for her horse and riding off to find Elsa herself, but not without making sure her people were taken care of first, and provided with warm food and blankets. While this may not have been the wisest decision, it was what she believed was right, and Anna refused to leave such an important task to anyone else. This showcases perfectly her rather headstrong disposition. She's stubborn and she follows her heart, even if it means ending up in a snowdrift or two, and a large proportion of the decisions she makes are based mostly on impulse instead of rational thought and weighing any pros and cons.
Anna is a very passionate person. She throws herself into everything a hundred percent, even if that's a hundred percent wrong. See: getting engaged to a man she met that day. It isn't the smartest decision, but Anna only wanted to be noticed and loved by someone. She was ready to do anything if it meant receiving positive attention. After being isolated from her older sister for most of her life and losing her parents at age thirteen, she lost her common sense somewhat when it comes to other people, which means she does things like get engaged to a man she just met that day. She’s hungry for even the slightest bit of attention or affection, and even small acts are enough to please her, if just for a little while. Above all, she's motivated by a need for love, whether it be romantic, platonic, or ultimately, sisterly.
On a more lighthearted note, Anna is bubbly, quirky, and has a good sense of humor that probably arose from spending so much time amusing herself with little company as a kid. She's energetic, shown riding her bike around the castle, running and jumping and acting not-quite-ladylike. Though she's sweet, she also is unsure of herself, and has a bad habit of causing trouble not only for herself, but for others, too. Arendelle lives in a state of half-amused fear at the havoc her shenanigans often wreak. She's also very awkward, her babbling and propensity for misunderstandings resulting in a lot of "wait, what?" moments, but she also can move past awkward moments quickly without being outwardly self-conscious about it. As a cover for a whole lot of underlying insecurity, she's relentlessly optimistic, and sometimes that gets in the way of being able to correctly identify the correct course of action or assess the situation.
What isn't readily apparent to most is that the princess is very insecure, constantly feeling like she's done something to deserve the emotional pain she's experienced. She even asks Elsa at one point, "What did I ever do to you?" Even though none of it was her doing, it's clear that she somehow feels at fault for her sister's isolation. On the other hand, Anna is shown to be incredibly loyal, and is motivated by her desire to save the day, to make things right, especially when she feels at fault. In a deleted scene, Anna chases a pig through the marketplace and wreaks havoc, but apologizes profusely to the villagers of Arendelle and promises that she'll make things right and replace everything she destroyed in the wake of her chase. She wants to be liked more than she needs to be respected, and above all she needs to be noticed.
5-10 Key Character Traits: Insecure, Energetic, Bubbly, Positive, Reckless, Loyal, Stubborn, Independent, Charming
Would you prefer a monster that FITS your character’s personality, CONFLICTS with it, EITHER, or opt for 100% RANDOMIZATION? FITS though I think she'll just be a nymph again iirc c:
Opt-Outs: Mer, Naga, Arachne, Demon, Gargoyle, Troll
Roleplay Sample:
“Flowers for sale!”
The princess waves an arm toward passersby, her other arm burdened down with a frankly ridiculous number of fresh flowers, stems and bouquets both. It’s a risky venture, to be sure, but Anna can only hope that spending all her coins on these flowers to sell will pay off in the long run. She’s never had to work a day in her life, but that doesn’t mean she’s going to go down without a fight.
She hops up and down and waves her arm again, hoping to attract a little more attention. People seem to be busy today, headed doggedly for their destinations, Anna notices with a little dismay. But she’s determined to unburden herself by any means possible. Screwing up her face, she summons her courage and steps forward into the throng.
“Hi there, sir, how would you like to bring fresh flowers home for your wife?” Anna ducks to avoid the swinging tail of a passing minotaur. “How about you, ma’am—a beautiful bouquet to brighten your, uh—grotto?” She’s pretty sure mermaids live in grottos, if fairy tales are anything to go by. “Excuse me, sir? Hi! You must have a girlfriend who’d love some long-stemmed—well, they’re not roses, but they’re carnations, and they’re still really pretty!”
No luck. Anna’s shoulders drop in resignation for a moment, but after taking a second to recoup, she throws herself back into the fray to try again. Soon enough, her luck will change. She just knows it.
“Excuse me! Ma’am!”
