Pure Vanilla Cookie is the best and here's why

I swear if you read this 69 paragraph essay I wrote on Pure Vanilla-

First of all, let's talk about his ingredients; as we know, he represents vanilla in general. Not just any vanilla, but *pure* vanilla. The "Pure" represents his pure, honest, and loving nature and personality.

Pure vanilla in general is used to enhance the flavor of other substances, to which its flavor is often complementary, such as chocolate, custard, caramel, coffee, and others. Vanilla is a common ingredient in Western sweet baked goods, such as cookies and cakes. Without him, there is none of these delectable treats we devote our time to eating.

Vanilla is also used to enhance the flavor of beverages and sauces. Vanilla adds a warming, sweet, and rounded flavor that compliments anything it's added to. It doesn't get in the way of the actual flavor but enhances it; like his character in the game: **he enhances everything with his loving, honest, faithful, pure personality**. That is why he is Pure Vanilla Cookie, you cannot replace vanilla, and if you attempted to, it wouldn't ever be the same.

Now let's talk about his in-game description, which furthermore shows my point.

*"There are not many Cookies on Earthbread who could inspire hope as Pure Vanilla Cookie did. Born from nature-blessed cream and a fragrant vanilla bean, he was the epitome of Cookie kindness and faithfulness. Pure Vanilla Cookie strived to forgive the wrongdoers and heal the wounds of Cookies and animals alike. Though a powerful wielder of magic, he would use his spells not for his own good, but for the good of everyone. The Cookie took an arduous pilgrimage down the Sugar-Free Road. What Pure Vanilla Cookie learned through the Trials is unknown, but crowned with a bright halo of light he returned to found the Vanilla Kingdom, a land of freedom and learning, and a beacon for those seeking love and peace. Pure Vanilla Cookie stood by his friends until the very end, warding off the Darkness with a heartfelt smile."*

-In game description

*"He is the epitome of cookie faithfulness and kindness."* *"He strived to forgive the wrongdoer and heal the wounds of cookies AND animals alike."* He is a selfless cookie, who strives for not anything regarding himself, but of others. *"He forgives the wrongdoer",* not himself. This one sentence says a lot, but it's not just that, "*Though a powerful wielder of magic, he would use his spells not for his own good, but for the good of everyone."* This also shows my statement about his loving and selfless personality. He considers others, not himself. **He is meant to be loved, not hated.** His love is pure, not fake.

**Why would you hate him if he even strives to practically save Dark Enchantress Cookie, the one who destroyed everything for him**? His kingdom, his life, everything. Yet, he still attempts to change her mind and wishes to understand her ways. This does not mean that he approves of her atrocities obviously, but it just shows how loving and humble he truly is. He attempted to seal her away at the cost of **his own** life, to protect both of them and Earthbread. He truly is the epitome of cookie faithfulness and kindness. Tell me, if you dislike him, why? "He's annoying" or "he's boring" is not a valid answer. He didn't do anything wrong, quite the contrary actually.

**And, despite his dangerous power, he does not ever use it for evil or malicious intent.** Pure Vanilla Cookie has access to **Crescent Moon Magic**, which known as a very, very dangerous and powerful magic source. When using crescent moon magic, he charges up his Vanilla Orchid Staff, and throws a powerful beam of energy at his opponent using the last of his power. This beam is capable of sealing the opponent in an interdimensional void, or doing immense damage. The only time we've seen him use this is when he sealed Dark Enchantress Cookie. (In the end, he ended up sealing himself alongside her as I mentioned earlier) He also has his **soul jam,** which furthermore increases his abilities by a large margin.

Yet, he never uses these abilities in a selfish manner; he always considers all cookies in his decisions, as, let's not forget: his powers are extremely dangerous and destructive.

Furthermore, he is shown to have strong ties to vanilla orchids, which are known to represent deference and humility, innocence and purity, elegance, and beauty. All of these things can relate to him in various ways:

* **Deference**(humble submission and respect) Deference describes Pure Vanilla in many ways. First of all, he shows this towards Dark Enchantress Cookie with his desire to understand her ways, he respects her, even after everything, as I mentioned earlier in this text. And, don't forget his game description: "He strived to forgive the wrongdoer" This is shows he is the definition of this word.

* **Innocence**. He also describes this word to a great extent. The definition of this word is: "lack of guile or corruption; purity." He is shown to as well define this word. He is shown to lack corruption, with his truly selfless and honest gestures and way of thinking. (shown in his game description)

* **Elegance** is "pleasingly graceful and stylish in appearance or manner." Pure Vanilla Cookie is shown to be elegant according to this definition. You can see in his appearance, he is well put together, and pleasing to look at. Even in times of despair, he still manages to look very pleasing to the eye. From his soft vanilla blond hair to his staff. You can see he puts a lot of effort into his words and thoughts, with his humility, humbleness, and respect. This makes him pleasingly graceful in manner. This goes for the definition of beauty as well.

He also has a more feminine appearance, which truly defines his soft and gentle demeanor. It shows that he is gentle and fragile emotionally, it shows he is a reliable and loving cookie, which he exactly is. If he had a more masculine appearance such as Dark Cacao Cookie for example, well....it would be intimidating. Which is not the energy he is meant to put off. He is meant to make you feel reassured and loved just by looking at him and his soft smile.

You might be thinking, "Yeah, but what's the point of listing how he relates to vanilla orchids? And what does his feminine appearance even have to do with anything?" Well, the fact Devsisters incorporated these little details, such as his relation to vanilla orchids shows a lot because **it shows how much thought they put into his character**. It truly defines his personality and proves the fact that **he is interesting and especially worth being loved and known.**

If this didn't convince you that Pure Vanilla Cookie is the best character, or at least enough to genuinely like him little more, then I don't know anymore.
