## Out-of-universe information

### Speaking debut

*To The Void*

**Captain Arabella** is a character belonging to the *Fractures* End prequel. She first appeared in *To The Void* and is voiced by MJ Guingon. Hundreds of years ago, Arabella was the captain of an infamous End-pirate faction known as the  Orchid Fleet.

Arabella aspired to revive the forbidden art of necromancy and promised immortality to everyone who joined the Orchid Fleet.

## Design

Arabella is a tall Enderkin-Vampire hybrid with pale skin, pink-purple hair, two shoulder-length bangs and — as is typical of Enderkin — two purple eyes. She has two short fangs within her mouth - a vampiric trait that has died down due to her hybridism.

Her attire consists of a white-sleeved, grey pirate top with a dark grey middle section and a ruggard purple cloak over the top. Her pants are short and roughly cut - the same color as her cloak - better highlighting her short, black boots with purple adornments. A purple orchid pattern is stitched into the sleeve of her right shoulder, a reference to the name of her faction - Orchid Fleet. She wields a cutlass with a purple hilt to finalize the overall design.

### History

The circumstances of her past and the founding of her fleet are unknown, but at some point in her life, she may have become an Undead Hybrid due to her studies of Necromancy (if not being outright born as one), inspiring her to find purpose in eternal life. At some point in time, she founds the Orchid Fleet, recruiting the Draconian Purple Reaper and twin Endermen Flame-Eye and Pearl.

#### *To The Void*

Seemingly bored of their normal, lackluster adventures within the End, Arabella convinces Purple Reaper to aid in her pursuit for End Crystals, reasoning it shall lead their fleet to new frontiers. Despite his initial reluctance over the threat of Ender Lords, he concedes and the plan goes ahead. Sailing towards the Gloom Peninsula, the fleet passes several locations (including the Dragon's Den), raiding End Crystals from two islands. On the second island, they are initially met with resistance by a native warrior, Elise, but they dispatch her despite her efforts to protect the end crystal of her homeland.

     The fleet soon encounters another group of ships, run by merchant Enderkin, of which they besiege and raise an army of their dead to aid them. Traveling on to the Gloom Peninsula, Arabella enters alone, encountering a younger version of Ceris, whom she taunts with singing. As she spins in front of her, the rest of the Orchid Fleet appears, catching the enemy off-guard, and dispatching one of the Ender Dragons. Ceris tries to fight off the Orchid Fleet, directly combatting Arabella, but soon chases after the Crystal. The other captains of the Fleet beat the future queen to it, and upon Arabella's smug orders, leave Ceris tied up with only one Dragon Egg left, and no soldiers remaining.

Arabella uses the power of the three End Crystals to cast a major portal spell, disappearing with her Fleet to the new frontier.

## Personality

―Rainimator on Twitter

Arabella is described as an "ambitious mage" seeking to "restore the forbidden art of necromancy"— the dark arts of reanimating the deceased. She is extremely charismatic, using her singing voice to throw her enemies off-guard, finding comfort and joy in singing about her victories. With charisma comes a powerful confidence streak, to the point of near-cockiness, willing to put her fleet and herself in danger to retrieve End Crystals, potentially fighting powerful End Lords. At heart, however, she is curious and playful, opting to leave Ceris tied up instead of killing her, finding the young girl amusing.

## Skills

―Rainimator on Twitter

As a captain, her key weapon is foremost her powerful Fleet, commandership, and tactical skills. Promising eternal life, she has recruited many into her Orchid Fleet, keeping them alive with her extremely powerful and adept Necromancy.

Besides her charisma, which has been used to throw enemies off-guard, Arabella is a talented singer and dancer, hinting toward her excellent sense of balance. She is skilled with a cutlass and able to use the Portal Creation Spell subconsciously, including an enhanced version at the end of her debut episode. Alike to other Enderkin, she holds the ability to teleport.
