Peaseblossom

Peaseblossom is a supporting protagonist of the short-lived Nickelodeon fantasy sitcom, The Other Kingdom. She's a young, eccentric wood fairy whom Winston's becomes close friends with during his time in Athenia.

She was portrayed by Torri Webster.
== Biography ==
Not much is known about just what Peaseblossom's past was like, although it's heavily implied she didn't have a lot of companions or friends based on context given in the series. She'd secretly get upset about not having her wings at the time, despite most other fairies her age having them, although she would typically hide her emotions under her cheerful, eccentric demeanor and remained curious about her surroundings in Athenia.
She's first seen when Winston encounters her, as she tangled in a tree's vines after trying to tickle them and the trees viewing it has aggression. Peaseblossom introduces herself to Winston and explains her unfortunate situation, telling him to move on as she felt their differences would eventually them, Winston offers to untangle her from the vines, but he ultimately gets himself stuck in the vines instead and started to lose hope of his worth. Peaseblossom helps him out subtly -- then blatantly -- advising him using his donkey teeth (from a spell he was under) to chew their way out of the vines. She'd call him her hero for helping her out, and Winston's spell would be fully reversed, with him becoming human again.
The next day, Winston still thought he was at wizard school, and Peaseblossom bluntly tells him that wasn't the case, but rather he was in the fairy realm of Athenia, and chastises him for claiming he was at wizard school without proof, leading Winston to realize that Brendoni and Versitude had taken advantage of his gullibility. Peaseblossom gives Winston a brief tour of Athenia and a brief history of the fairy kingdom, explaining how the fairy realm and human realm used to be interconnected before the fairies had to isolate their realms due to humans polluting the land. The tour comes to an abrupt stop when the duo come across a dying summerberry bush, despite usually not dying in Athenia. Versitude comes across the two with the dying summerberries, as they're about to report the die plant to King Oberon. Versitude insisted that Oberon didn't have time to be address by those two. but frames the duo for "destroying" the berry bush, and suggesting they fix the bush on their own, assuming they'd be unable to do so. After various failed attempts to make a difference, Winston eventually discovers the bush's water source had trash from the human world in it, which he and Peaseblossom take care of cleaning the water and allowing the bush to regrow.
She'd get addicted to a mobile game after watching Winston play it, but Winston would be forced to confiscate the phone from her, due to Athenia being in danger of potential destruction at the time.
A few days later, Versitude catches Winston taking some leaves for a scrapbook, places him under arrest for false crimes, and frames him supposedly killing the summerberry bush, and nearly eating a bug (a set-up from Brendoni), having him be sentenced him to the Bogs of Nevermore to dig tunnels for the trolls for the rest of his life. Luckily, King Oberon allowed Winston to stand on trial as a citizen of Athenia, and make his case. Peaseblossom became Winston's defense attorney, but when Winston realizes how little Peasey actually practiced law, he gets worried. She'd spend 10 minutes saying random law terms, over arguing anything. Afterwards, she'd confront Winston over nearly eating a bug, and trying to break off a piece of the summerberry branch, but she'd also point out that he didn't try to eat it, and that the plants were sick, and how Versitude refused to help. Queen Titania manages to find some dying summerberries proving Peaseblossom's point. Winston's allowed by King Oberon to help heal the branches and his cases are lifted.
After a tea party with Oberon and Titania, Winston and Peaseblossom overhear Versitude planning to unleash Astral's dark side permanently. Peaseblossom wanted to warn Oberon (primarily frustrated with how Versitude stated Peasey talked too much), but Winston reminds her they didn't have any proof that could expose her, so try to collect some. Unfortunately, Versitude got aware she's being spied on and intentionally sets up a series of events that would get Winston and Peaseblossom suspicious of her actions (placing a mysterious item in the queen's tea, declaring an intention to overthrow the king) then when they turn out to be false, and King Oberon eventually has enough of their stories and refuses to listen to them due to his trust in Versitude, she reveals to Winston and Peaseblossom that she had planned all this and this was the intention, and with them out of the way, she was untouchable.
Athenia would end up in danger another time with a solar eclipse arriving where the fairies would lose their powers, and be mostly defenseless against a bulldozer that would destroy Athenia. Oberon wanted to attack the "others" before the fairies got harmed, Winston gets nervous, feeling like he'd be in danger of being harmed by the humans despite being one of them, and thought about potentially leaving Athenia before things got ugly, and Peaseblossom even gave her some items to remember her by and express how much she'd miss him, but Winston ultimately decided to stay and fight for the fairies as Athenia was worth protecting, and asks Peaseblossom to help out.
