**Queen Esther** is the main protagonist in Veggietales's fourteenth episode "Esther: The Girl Who

Became Queen"

## Background

Prior to her arrival to Persia, Esther lived in Babylon with her grandmother. She is also Mordecai's cousin.
He told Esther to tell her friend that she should pay the apple, but then she was picked for being one of the eligible maidens to be King Xerxes' wife and queen. She originally didn't want to, but her cousin hesitated due to Haman's behavior. She eventually became queen of Persia.

After her coronation, Mordecai warns Esther that Haman is trying to banish all their families to the Island of Perpetual Tickling.

### Personality

Esther is a kind queen, who believes in God. She was formerly afraid sometimes, like when Mordecai said she had to go to the King, which she overcame. She also disliked her new position as queen at first. But later, she finally embraces her position as queen and begins to become braver, and did the right thing, saving her people and confronted Xerxes about Haman's plot.

### Physical Appearance

Esther is an anthropomorphic green onion. She has short brown hair and brown eyes. At the beginning of her appearance, when she was talking to Mordecai, she was seen with white clothing, later when she was taken by Haman along with 4 other girls to see who will be the new queen of Persia because Queen Vashiti was banished from the kingdom for not obeying the laws.

## Trivia

* This was her only appearance ever in the Veggietales series. It is unknown why she hasn't appeared in another episode, however, it should be noted that the new animation Big Idea was using for Jonah A Veggietales Movie, she was ultimately Jopponian because it was too hard to render her hair movement and it was also too expensive as well. Technically, she was replaced by Petunia Rhubarb as Larry's love interest in the Veggietales franchise.
* During it's production, she was originally suppose to be a Chilli Pepper, but they felt she would be much better
