Roselina "Lina" Love

Lina Love, fully named Roselina Valentina Love, is a 2017-introduced and all-around character. She is the daughter of Rosella and the previous King of Love from the Italian fairytale The King of Love, collected by Thomas Frederick Crane. She is currently a student at Ever After High, and personally and passionately identifies as a Royal, having no qualms about marrying a handsome prince and defeating an ogress. Major W.I.P

​Personality
All of Lina’s qualities, traits, and mannerisms can easily be described in one word: girly. She’s very effeminate, and is rather proud of the fact. She doesn’t do it because of societal expectations, nor to protest or inforce them. She just is. Despite how airheaded she an act at times, she really isn’t. She’s a perfectly functioning and capable princess. Still, that doesn’t mean she can’t just be a girl-girl if she likes. Occasionally, she’ll go as far as to act a bit childlike, and this can get on people’s nerves. Lina can recognize this, and yes will admit and try to tone it down, but again, it’s who she is, and if she doesn’t see it as unreasonable, then she’ll do what she pleases.

Lina has a rather awkward tendency to be a bit emotional at times. Like, sometimes it’s appropriate, but for the majority of situations, she makes it way too big a deal. She’s the type of person who cries all the time. That’s not to say she doesn’t try to fix her mistakes. Aside from sulking, she’ll often take things into her own hands. If she trips over a broken floorboard and breaks a nail, she’ll cry for a while (a long while), and then promptly track down whomever is responsible and make them pay. Obviously not through extreme measures, but still, revenge is revenge.

The girl’s in love with love, and given her heritage, that shouldn’t be a surprise. Considering herself “the princess of love”, she goes around matching people and up, as well as preaching about peace and the mora; benefits of love and other positive emotions. This can also bother people, as not all have had the privilege of experiencing love, or simply they just don’t want to hear it. And Lina can take love to an extreme, shoving the joy down people’s throats. And she rarely, if ever after, realized it. Most people who don’t enjoy that kind of thing just tend to avoid her. Of course, she does have a crowd who’s willing to listen, mostly other princesses, and they comprise most of her friend group. Lina doesn’t mind this at all.

Lina’s very passionate about certain subjects. There’s the whole love thing, and then there’s the inevitable Destiny Conflict everyone just has to have an opinion on. Lina is a Royal, and although she may seem like it at times, she doesn’t hold the typical “Royals are just better” mentality, as many others do, but has very complex thoughts and opinions on the matter. She dislikes the fact that the Rebels seem to get away with accusing all Royals of being selfish. There’s more to it than that. In her opinion, they just don’t realize that most of them have been raised to expect the best, to try and be the best. They were promised happily ever afters. You can’t tell someone things like this for years and then take that away from them. And it’s not like everyone who identifies as a Royal has a cushy destiny to back up their decision. Even in Lina’s own tale, she has to perform mundane but difficult tasks to earn her prince. In fact, she’s worked hard all her life for her destiny. The Rebels just don’t understand that, they operate under the assumption that everyone’s handed to the Rebels. Because of all this, Lina holds a great respect for those who sacrifice their future so others can achieve a good destiny, as well as Rebels who, at the very least, listen.
