Hmmm...

I have noticed that some fandoms do prefer Rebels to Royals and have butchered a particulary nasty Royal just for the reason of "Royals are snobby and mean to the poor widdle Rebels". Yes, I'm kinda guilty of having a Royal be mean to a Rebel but that particular Royal is Duchess who Mattel created and has a genuine reason for being who she is. Although this fandom does have many exceptions to th stereotypical Royal, I do enjoy seeing Royals who are nice or have a reason to be nasty. Actually any OC that has reasons for their behavior and not "just because" is one worth reading about. These OCs tend to be well-written, with thought-out reasons that created them.

I do get why most people prefer Rebels though. I mean, lots of fairytales, especially ones with villains and such tend to end sadly, sometimes for the protangonists, sometimes for the antagonists, sometimes for both. This includes lots of dying. And not a lot of people will die willingly. Of course, we being the awesome gods we are have wept for our pitiful little dumplings and their destiny and so changed them. It kinda makes sense since we don't want our little bebes to burn in a fire, or fall into a swamp, or simply get stabbed. The remaining OCs with happily ever afters are not necessarily Royals. Like Nyx's Quinny Pig, they could not want to fulfill their destiny because of the reasons they have. So we are left with a smaller boat of Royals. Don't forget, some of these can be Roybels or Neutrals. Nevertheless the favor towardss Rebels is great and although I love them, some more Royals would be awesome too!

I agree with Zena. I mean, lots of the Royals are just as sweet! Although I've never met anyone popular, hence my hide-in-the-corner status, I can tell that they can be awesome! So yeah, I've seen bad and good Royals, if they have a good reason for beingterrible, so be it!

I myself do favor Rebels, mostly because I equip them with tales that aren't exactly pink unicorns sneezing Skittles. But, I do have Roybels and Neutrals and Royals.(in my planning and plotting mind)

One interesting thought I had for a Royal that isn't exactly good or bad was that their destiny ends horrible, yet they take it upon themselves, "to fulfill and suceed!" They're the type of person who seems like a sore loser and attention-milker, when in all honestly, they're just little potatoes who need more love. They take their destiny and see it as a way to get sympathy from others, something they never had before. ;n; Poor little pieroggies. Sorry if this isn't the place to put an idea, just an interesting thought that was connected to this.
