Gillian Cobbler

She was introduced in this book

Gillian Cobbler, nicknamed Gilly, is the main protagonist of the Fairy Tale Reform School series. She narrates all the books from her perspective. (The comments on this page likely don't have anything to do with Gilly because this is used by the people on this wiki to talk most of the time)

## Appearance

Gillian has frizzy brown hair with a purple streak (given by Jocelyn in Charmed during Wand What You Want) and big brown eyes. She has freckles and often dresses in comfortable but worn-out clothes. She loves to wear her favorite, beloved brown lace-up boots made by her father (Hal Cobbler), even though they are beat-up and worn out. Though, she is usually found wearing the FTRS uniform which is a light blue jumper, with red and white striped stockings and black shoes she refers to as *ugly*.

## Personality

Gillian is a mischievous and quick thinking twelve and soon to be thirteen-year-old girl, but kind and often stands up for other people. Her family was very poor (that was, until she saved Enchantasia), so she does her best to help others out. She and her partner in crime, Jax, are always ready for a fight!

## Biography

#### Early Life

Gilly use to live with her family in Enchantasia, where her father works as a shoemaker. She has 5 siblings, Anna, Felix, Trixie, Han, and Hamish. Anna appears to be her favorite, always giving her presents that she "found." The family was suffering because the fairy godmother Olivina, stole their glass slipper model and copied it to make dozens more. Because of this, Gillian stole from multiple shops for gifts for her family and to get food. She had gotten caught multiple times. After three strikes, Pete (Chief of the Dwarf Police) caught her and brought her to Fairy Tale Reform School.

## Relationships

### Anna Cobbler

Gilly and Anna Cobbler are siblings. At the beginning of the story, the two sisters were great friends and had a great relationship. Gilly sometimes stole things as gifts for Anna as well. After Gilly started going to FTRS, the two became somewhat distant. When Gilly finally left FTRS, the girls still hung out, but not as much as they use to. Anna started hanging out with Hansel and Gretel, two mischievous and evil kids. Gilly was surprised that Anna had gotten sent to FTRS, and Gilly decided to go there too. Gilly later found out Rumpelstiltskin had become Headmaster of FTRS, and the experience was horrible. Anna soon became one of Rumpelstiltskin's favorites, and the two became even more distant from each other. The two sisters got into a few fights as well. At the end of Tricked, before Anna left, she reveled that she was always jealous of Gilly. When Rumpelstiltskin left the school, he took Anna with him, much to Gilly's heartbreak. She tried convincing herself that Anna was not in her right mind, and sometimes her mind was always wandering. In Switched, because Gilly loved Anna so much, she convinced herself that Jack was telling the truth, and Anna wanted to go home. Anna was still evil at the time and faked it so Gilly was led right into the trap. After they escaped, Gilly knew that Anna was evil and there was no changing it. In Wished, Anna appeared like a mirage when they were practicing and Gilly hesitated to get her, even though she was not real, In the final installment, Anna comes into a fight, while trying to bring Gilly to Alva and Rumpelstiltskin. She however failed and brought in Han and Hamish instead. During the fight at FTRS, Anna showed no remorse in fighting Gilly, but state, "I am protecting you guys!" When Rumpelstiltskin revealed that only two people could come into the new world, Anna was dazed and confused. After Alva defeated Rumpelstiltskin, she proposed that Anna come with her, which Anna said, "What about my family?" She also meant Gilly. After the battle, Anna expressed her sorrow of what she's done and hugged Gilly as the two girls were both happy together.

### Jaxon Porter

Jaxon Porter, or Jax, is Gilly's best friend. The two met on Gilly's first day at FTRS. They became very good friends, and later best friends. Gilly and Jax are always there for each other, but in Switched, they had an argument mainly because Jax was jealous that Gilly spent so much time with Jack, and Jax accused him of working with Rumpelstiltskin, which later became true. In Cursed, Jax tried to save Han and Hamish by jumping through a portal, but was claimed to be dead by Alva. After the fight, Gilly appeared to be crying. Jax had written his "5 years later," essay, which Gilly read. It included how Jax thought that he knew who his queen would be, which is indicating towards Gilly. When Gilly and the others found out Jax was not dead, she pretended not to be worried about him, which Jax and their friends teased her about. But she was secretly very relieved that he was alright.

### Kayla Wingtip

Kayla was Gilly's roomate for the duration of Flunked and Charmed, and also her first friend. They got along well at first, but then Gilly found out that Kayla was lying and had been working with Alva, who they thought was Gottie at the time. They had only been friends for a while after that, and then Gilly joined the RLWS. Gilly became too independent, and she and Kayla got into a fight along with Maxine and Jocelyn. But then, they became friends again after an important talk. In TRICKED, Gilly is not Kayla's roomate, but they still are good friends. Gilly helps Kayla find her mom and sisters, and Kayla was very grateful for that. In the next three books, their friendship remains strong. For example, Kayla helps Gilly learn a bit of magic in Cursed.
