Shh...I'm coming back...

"Destiny is a thorn on her side."

- Carmen Rosenrot, box quote

Carmen Rosenrot is an all-around character reintroduced in 2016 but originating from 2013. She is a student at Ever After High and the daughter of Rose-Red.

Carmen is opposed to following her destiny, and is considered a Rebel. However, she doesn't consider herself part of the 'charge' against destiny and simply wants to do things her way and have control over her life. Her prime traits are that she is blunt, anti-social, darkly humored, irascible and usually disinterested. However, she can also be caring, kind and welcoming...just in a limited capacity.

How the Story Goes
Here's a summary of how the story goes, courtesy of Wikipedia:

Snow-White and Rose-Red are two little girls living with their mother, a poor widow, in a small cottage by the woods. Fair-haired Snow-White is quiet and shy and prefers to spend her time indoors, doing housework and reading. Dark-haired Rose-Red is outspoken, lively and cheerful, and prefers to be outside. They are both very good little girls who love each other and their mother dearly, and their mother is very fond of them as well.

One winter night, there is a knock at the door. Rose Red opens the door to find a bear. At first, she is terrified, but the bear tells her not to be afraid. "I'm half frozen and I merely want to warm up a little at your place," he says. They let the bear in, and he lies down in front of the fire. Snow-White and Rose-Red beat the snow off the bear, and they quickly become quite friendly with him. They play with the bear and roll him around playfully. They let the bear spend the night in front of the fire. In the morning, he leaves trotting out into the woods. The bear comes back every night for the rest of that winter and the family grows used to him.

When summer comes, the bear tells them that he must go away for a while to guard his treasure from a wicked dwarf. During the summer, when the girls are walking through the forest, they find a dwarf whose beard is stuck in a tree. The girls rescue him by cutting his beard free, but the dwarf is ungrateful and yells at them for cutting his beautiful beard. The girls encounter the dwarf several times that summer, rescue him from some peril each time and the dwarf is ungrateful each time.

Then one day, they meet the dwarf once again. This time, he is terrified because the bear is about to kill him. The dwarf pleads with the bear and begs it to eat the girls. Instead, the bear pays no heed and kills the dwarf with one swipe of his paw. Instantly, the bear turns into a prince. The dwarf had previously put a spell on the prince by stealing his precious stones and turning him into a bear. The curse is broken with the death of the dwarf. Snow-White marries the prince and Rose-Red marries the prince's brother.

How does Carmen come into it?
As much as Carmen doesn't care about following her future destiny, she still isn't very happy about the fact that her mother had to settle with the prince's brother. "Maybe there should have been a contest, or at least drawing straws or some s**t like that?" in her own words. Even though Rose-Red herself isn't too bothered about this, Carmen is still pretty ticked off about it.

The other big thing is the presence of Snow-White. The assumption is that Apple White is Carmen's cousin, though there is no real thought put into the fact that Apple now seemingly has a second destiny. This is where things get interesting - Apple isn't Carmen's real cousin, but none of the students know that, not even Carmen. In fact, her real cousin is locked in the Vault of Lost Tales oblivious to the knowledge of Carmen or any of the students. It is only after the events of Thronecoming when Giles Grimm is freed that rumors start to emerge about this 'true cousin'. For now, Carmen seems to hold Apple to a degree responsible for at least part of her malcontent nature.

Class-ic Schedule
As she is technically a princess, Carmen is allocated the more traditionally 'princessy' classes, much to her chagrin.
 * First Period - Science and Sorcery. An adequately likable start to the day in Carmen's opinion. She gets to exercise some creativity and have a little fun.
 * Second Period - Damsel-In-Distressing. Carmen does not like this subject at all. As a person who enjoys doing things herself, making her own way forward and having sole dibs on her future, it's not surprising to hear that this is not Carmen's cup of tea.
 * Third Period - Debate. On one hand, Carmen will argue the castle down. On the other hand, the topics that are discussed in Debate class often revolve around formulaic and destiny-related subjects, which Carmen doesn't want to get involved with and doesn't care for. She prefers to challenge students on her own terms and on the subjects that matter.
 * Fourth Period - Crownculus. It's okay. She isn't bad at it. She can do it quite competently. It's not something she raves about, but it's okay.
 * Fifth Period - Princessology.  *sigh* .
 * Sixth Period - Storybook Inceptionism, Carmen's favourite. She thinks that being put in this class was a mistake on the school's part, but it's the best mistake they've ever made as far as she's concerned. Delving into the ways that fairytales were developed is something that fascinates Carmen, and certainly adds another prong to the destiny argument.
