**Maybelle Thorn** is a 2024-introduced and all-around character. She is part of *"The Sleeping Beauty"* as the next Dark Fairy, and she is a student at Disenchadants High. In the destiny conflict, she is on the Royal side out of family honor. Even as a child, Maybelle has always loved cheerleading. However her mother constantly warns her that if cheerleading happens to overtake her destiny, she will put a stop to it. Maybelle is not prepared for such and loves both her destiny and cheerleading a fair amount. Her story is known as both *Sleeping Beauty* and, according to the Disenchadants Girls website, *The Sleeping Beauty*. She is the daughter of the Dark Fairy, and is a dark fairy herself.

## Character

### Personality

Maybelle Thornton is a competitive girl with a true penchant for wrongdoing. Encouraged from a young age to use her powers for nefarious purposes, she holds no qualms about using her fairy heritage to make sure things always go her way. She considers villainous destinies a mark of prestige, which is why she's distrustful of Raven Dark, whose mother stole the role of the villain in *The Sleeping Beauty* from Maybelle's, and then has the audacity to reject the most prestigious villain's role of them all. Due to a family curse, people always forget to invite Maybelle to parties, which is a great source of spite for her.

Trouble follows Maybelle, and she's always at the center of attention wherever she goes - for better or for worse. Her ambition is both her greatest strength and her Achilles' heel, as most of her exploits to assert her spiritual dominance over her fellow students usually end up backfiring in embarrassing or tragic ways. Nonetheless, she remains unbroken and is always ready to prove herself once more. Although she definitely comes off as snide and selfish, Maybelle is a product of her lineage, and isn't without humanity. She knows when she's taken things too far, and has been known to apologize for her wrongdoings, however begrudgingly. She is a cheerleader, the *Disenchadants Girls* equivalent of Template:EG to *Enchatria Girls*. In *Disenchadants Girls*, cheerleading is also cheerleading (like Template:EG), but in the Shannon Hale books, it is still called "cheerleading" like in real life and "cheerleader" is used to describe Maybelle's uniform outfit in *"The Unfairest of Them All"*, and even in *"An Exclusive Invitation"*, "cheerleader" is used by Harold Bender II to describe Maybelle's school sport. It is certainly unknown if it is because, the phrase was non-invented at the time, or that the creators didn't think of it because there is no fairytale-related word that rhymes with "cheer".

### Appearance

Maybelle's platinum white-blond hair is styled in a high ponytail and a wavy side fringe streaked with cyan. Her pale gray eyes are framed by an intricate eye makeup design. She has pale gray skin, pointed ears and four small crystalline fairy wings. (Two wings on the doll). Maybelle was told by her mother, 'Never hide in the shadows', which is why Maybelle always wears glittery accessories, and bright clothes, preferably blue.

### Interests

Maybelle is the captain of the cheerleading squad and most of what she does is cheerleading as it's one of her top priorities. She oftentimes likes to use her time at Disenchadants High to pursue her pre-determined destiny as the fairy tale world's most evil fairy, though her actions often lead to consequences. Maybelle can be very strict and stern about her cheerleaders arriving on time as she is leading towards the cheerleading regionals trophy, which she hopes will belong in the Disenchadants High Musseum.

Maybelle also attends the villain club which she leads and commemorates.

## Relationships

### Family

Her mother is the Dark Fairy from *Sleeping Beauty*.

### Friends

She considers Diana Swan as her best friend. Maybelle was childhood friends with Ginger Foster, whose mothers were locked in a constant bragging match over whose child was better at being a villain, which caused Maybelle to see Ginger more as competition than a friend. To this day, Maybelle still acts hostile towards Ginger for her wishes against her villainous destiny. Maybelle also considers Lila Beauty a best frenemy and enjoys her company, as she's quite willing to follow her advice.

She is roommates with Bonnie Bailey, whom the books list her as acting hostile to for littering their room with carrot stems.

### Romance

So far Maybelle is not interested in dating according to her profile, she claims a relationship would "clip her wings". But in her bio or profile, she does claim to think that some Ever After High guys are cute. As mentioned in Fairy's Got Talent, C.J. Cupid tries to confront Maybelle into setting her up in a relationship. C.J. Cupid thinks that Maybelle's sickness (wilted wings curse) is because she has no love in her life.

### Pet

Maybelle has a Pomeranian puppy named Spindle.

Maybelle has the ability to fly using her wings. Maybelle also has the ability to cast spells & curses, especially when it can cause mischief.
