Princess Bubblegum

, best known as Princess Bubblegum or PB, is the tritagonist of Cartoon Network's Adventure Time franchise. 
She was Finn's former crush until the episode, "Hot to the Touch". She is also Marceline Abadeer's best friend-turned-girlfriend. 
The character makes her debut in the animated short overall and her official debut in Slumber Party Panic. She is a hero in her own right: in the episode "Lady & Peebles," she personally rescues Finn and Jake (after both went missing for three weeks), and defeats the antagonist Ricardio the Heart Guy. She frequently gets kidnapped by the Ice King (to be rescued by Finn and Jake) and is very similar to Princess Peach, because they are both princesses and they both get kidnapped. They both also have pink as their signature color. 
She is voiced by Hynden Walch who also voiced Penny Sanchez from ChalkZone, Starfire from Teen Titans and her reboot incarnation, Jenny McBride in The Secret of NIMH 2: Timmy to the Rescue, Nia Teppelin, Alice, and Wendy (After Kathryn Beaumont was retired), and Isabella Acres as her younger self in two episodes.
==Appearance==
Bubblegum has light pinked skin as well as dark pink around her clothes and mainly her long hair, she has human characteristics sporting dotted eyes, speech and mannerism. When she came out of the Mother Gum, her appearance is marshmallow-like and long dark pink hair around while keeping her human attributes.
==Personality==
Princess Bubblegum is shown as brave, confident and highly intelligent. She is quite calm, kind and well-spoken most of the time, although she can also show a more short-tempered and even malicious side to her when she's crossed. She also demonstrates a compulsive side when it comes to experimenting on different occasions, She is also quite inclined to aid Finn with technology which would help him in his quests. However, one of Bubblegum's most defining traits is her great care and overprotectiveness towards her candy people, whom she views as her own children, and she goes to very great lengths to ensure their safety. This can drive her to work herself to the point of exhaustion, and unfortunately, even lead her to taking morally questionable and authoritarian measures, like constantly spying on everyone as a means to quickly identify anyone and anything that could be a threat. However, at the end of the day, this is very much out of a desire to protect everyone, and to some extent, the result of the pressure she's constantly under to be a responsible ruler to her people.

==Biography==
===Past===
At some point, after the Great War, Princess Bubblegum was formed from a sentient being known as the mother gum, where it would provide a young Marceline with chicken soup by giving it to Simon to ensure their survival. At some point, Bonnibel then left her gooey hatch, growing limbs and exploring the pond near her, She then guides her brother Neddy along with her, unfortunately he became emotionally distraught by landing on a sharp rock, letting out a terrified scream. Bubblegum then made a special calming technique which put him to sleep. Bonnibel would then took her brother and built a house around a candy tree after following him, where he would provide brown candy liquid from the tree and through Neddy. Bonnibel learned about the idea of having a family where she would build a machine and create her “relatives” from her own gum and brought them to life in her machine, including (Uncle Gumbald, Aunt Lolly and cousin Chiclay) to cope with being alone, the group then build a little town, however Gumbald had bigger plans and secretly plotted against Bubblegum by spiking her food with “dumdum juice” he created, which would have turned her into a feeble and different candy minion if not for Bubblegum eavesdropping on their plans after leaving Cream put who was created to be Bubblegum's now Ex-boyfriend. Cousin Chiclay and Aunt Lillie were unintentionally offered the samples of DumDum Juice from cupcakes which turned them both into candy people by Gumbald. Bonnibel confronts her Uncle and uses her pea shooter which dosed Gumbald with all the dumdum juice, becoming punchy. The transformed group then praised Bonnibel, as she herself would declare herself princess.
in The Vault, Bubblegum began using her science knowledge to expand the kingdom into bigger pictures, where she befriends Shoko (a ancestor of Finn Mertens) where ultimately would steal her necklace used to power her new Candy Guardians from her and landing on a green pool. Which she was unable to save her, afterwards Shoko then comforted herself onto a tree which would then be housed by Marceline and later Finn and Jake years later.
