**Princess Amber** is the deuteragonist featured in the Disney Junior TV series Sofia The First and a current character throughout the Equestria Girls film series. She is a student of Canterlot High School (CHS), a lead vocalist of the Amber Crew and a twin sister to Crystal Prep's Amber Jewel.

## Portrayers

Amber is originally played by Darcy Rose Byrnes. However, from 2015 onwards, she is played by Diane Kruger.

## Personality

Originally, Amber was cold, spoiled, bratty, and envious, but knew when to admit her wrongdoings. Amber loves her family, especially her father King Roland. She admires Miranda with great affection, even giving her a rose flowered unicorn bush to show how much she cared for her. Even though she tends to manipulate and ignore James, she appears to actually love and care about her brother, judging by her reaction when James says that he likes Sofia better than her, which was the first time that she was shown feeling truly depressed.

As the series has progressed, she is growing to be more responsible, kind and respective towards Sofia by teaching her more about being a princess. She tries to keep Sofia out of harm's way as well. And while she is still holding on to her old haughty vain, and spoiled behavior, Amber is steadily improving not only as a princess but as a person as well.

Though she mostly has a cold manner, she can become emotional and even a bit violent at times. She even hit Wormwood with a broom to maneuver him into his birdcage to allow Sofia to get the book with the counterspell for the sleeping spell. Amber has also furiously chased a wild carpet and often scolds others' errors in displeasing her. This includes squirting glue and glitter on her dress (in the case of Princess Leena) or (in the case of her peacock, Praline) failing to let her succeed.

Amber can be a bit bossy, believing that bigger is better and that simple is not good enough. She tends to take over party-planning, believing that she knows best. She has to be reminded that people have their own ways of throwing parties. Her desire to win can also get her into trouble, such as when she cheated to win the school's costume contest, and later she was reprimanded. Occasionally, her selfishness, such as wanting her own birthday, causes trouble for others as well. Through the consequences of these actions, they have taught her valuable life lessons. Amber has shown to be very fashion conscious believing that style and beauty are more important than actually competing at times. She admits she likes coaching because it allows her to boss others around.

Like her father, Amber is also naive when it comes to magic due to not really understanding it or knowing how to use it properly as shown when she recklessly used up all three of her wishes and when she accidentally activated the Amulet of Avalor's safeguard by stealing it from Sofia.

Her *doppelgänger*, Amber Jewel (commonly called Jewel), appears across the Equestria Girls and Sofia The First movie lineup and the Equestria Girls and Jake and the Never Land Pirates film series and becomes Sofia's nanny.
