==Apparence==
Willow looks very similar to her sister Arianna only a little more chaotic. Her hair is long and messy brown in color tied in braided braids with different colored hair bands and she has dark green eyes. She has a pigtail behind her left shoulder and one in front of her right shoulder.
She wears aqua blue eyeshadow, a yellow puff sleeve top with an orange corset and knee-length pants and lots of bracelets on all of her arms and on the right Cavaglia. She wears two necklaces on her neck, one with four blue dangling pearls and an emerald gem in the middle. Like her granddaughter, she wears no shoes and is barefoot. She carries a blue handbag.
==Personality==
Willow shows that she has a lot in common with her niece, Rapunzel: they both like to walk around barefoot and are passionate about painting and adventure. Willow is a very funny and silly woman and extremely outgoing.
However, Willow can also be very serious when she gets angry, especially with her sister of hers (like telling subjects about her sister about embarrassing memories from their youth).
Despite this character, she doesn't want to make her sister or her whole family feel bad, and the episode ends with the two women starting to mend their relationship.
==History==
Willow's first appearance is in the episode "Way of the Willow" where it is explained that she missed Arianna's birthday six times in a row. An unexpected message arrives that Willow will come to visit Arianna in Corona, this risk making Arianna and Rapunzel miss the meteor shower, and this annoys Arianna a lot because after a long time she wanted to spend time with her daughter and not have anything to do with his sister considered embarrassing.
Willow, however, doesn't know this and nearly ruins Arianna's birthday experience with her daughter. She is happy to see all of her especially her sister and her long-lost niece, the two soon realize they have a lot in common. The birthday present she gives to Arianna is a Uumlaut, a rodent-like creature, which she brought to an old man on an island, and says that he will spend the whole day with her and with Rapunzel, despite Arianna no longer wanting to see Willow and be with Rapunzel.
Rapunzel took her to visit the Snuggly Duckling with the Pub Thugs and in which Willow told the boys stories about her and Ariadne, unknowingly embarrassing her sister, even more so for the parts where Ariadne has a anxious to impress everyone, forcing her to take whatever challenge Willow would throw her.
Eventually, not taking her sister's behavior anymore, Arianna walks away sulking, Willow reassures Rapunzel that her mother is fine and that they shouldn't let the "ruin their night" argument. But Rapunzel points out that it's not their night. At that moment the meteor shower begins and Rapunzel realizes that they are looking at her without Ariadne and gets depressed, Ariadne is even more depressed and throws away the annoying rattle of the Uumlaut, unknowingly driving the creature crazy as it begins to multiply. After the shower, Willow tries to apologize to Arianna for missing her, but this angers her even more and a fight begins between the two sisters who don't even notice the creature multiplying until Rapunzel calls them. The girls think that to stop them you have to retrieve the rattle, they succeed, but by shaking it they can't do anything and they understand that they have to give it back to the original. When they saw that the creature and its copies were heading for Corona, the sisters decided to put their differences aside and work together to return the rattle to the original Uumlaut and stop the stampede. Ariadne and Willow create a makeshift flying glider to stop the Uumlaut. The boat fits two people; Willow flies, noticing Ariadne's dubious flight record, while Ariadne carries the rattle to lure the Uumlaut. Their plan works and Corona is safe.
After the rescue, the two sisters reconcile. The next morning, Willow happily greets her family, before setting off on new adventures, in which Ariadne and Willow make up. In her style, Willow greets her family and promises to take care of the Uumlaut, but Rapunzel and Ariadne soon find the creature in the castle courtyard.
In "Beginnings" it is revealed that Ariadne and Willow were born princesses of one of the Seven Kingdoms according to the trophy.
Willow makes a cameo appearance in the series finale, "Plus Est En Vous", and is among the rest of the people of the kingdom as she celebrates their happiness forever. In the same episode, Ariadne says that when they were younger, they had such a strong bickering that Willow made a brick wall to separate from Ariadne and she managed to tear it down and they soon reconciled.
