## Biography

Cimorene is the youngest daughter of the King and Queen of Linderwall. Her six older sisters are proper princesses, all with golden hair and sweet disposition, each more beautiful than the last. She has a stubborn streak a mile long. She suffered through all the proper princess lessons with the best tutors; dancing, embroidery, drawing, and a ton of etiquette, from how to curtsy to how to scream if she is carried off by a giant. However, she would bully the people at her father's court into teaching her how to fence, read Latin, juggle, cook, understand economics, and use magic. When her parents arranged for Cimorene to marry Prince Therandil of Sathem-by-the-Mountains (the next kingdom over), she runs away. After getting some advise from a talking frog, Cimorene went to a house... filled with dragons! And the house was a cave in the Mountains of Morning! Rather than marry an air-headed, pretty boy prince, Cimorene *asked* to become a dragon's princess. Kazul agreed to the improper princess. Cimorene was happy with her predicament, enjoying cooking and cleaning. After visiting Morwen in the Enchanted Forest, she killed a bird with a magic sword. He gave her a forfeit of three black feathers that could take her anywhere she wished in the blink of an eye. When Cimorene asked if she could take others, the bird held respect for her, and said that she could take anyone with her as long as they were touching and the same for items they could carry. However, when some unsavory wizards try to fix the crossing of Colin's Stone and the picking of the next King of the Dragons, Cimorene and her friends must find out how to stop them. Alianora accidentally found out that soapy water with lemon juice temporarily melts wizards. With the help from the the Stone Prince and Alianora, Cimorene stop the wizards, causing Kazul to become the new King of the Dragons. Cimorene helped exposed Woraug, who was turned into a frog for undragon-like behavior. After that, Cimorene became Kazul's Chief Cook and Librarian.

After that, Cimorene has to search for Kazul. However, Mendanbar has come to visit. He has some dragon scales that used to be enchanted, but all came from one dragon, Woraug, who was turned into a frog a year earlier. With Mendanbar, Morwen, and Telemain's help, Cimorene finds Kazul in a bubble made by the wizards hidden in the Enchanted Forest. They narrowly avoid a war between the Enchanted Forest and the dragons. Mendanbar (somehow) asks Cimorene to marry him, who agrees and is much to Kazul's relief, as there is nothing left for Cimorene to really do in Kazul's cave.

Over a year later, Cimorene, now queen of the Enchanted Forest, must leave her husband and kingdom behind to look for Mendanbar's sword. She travels with Morwen, Telemain, some cats, Kazul, and Killer. However, at Brandel the fire-witch's tower, she finds that she is unable to contact her husband and she asked Kazul to check on him. She finds that her husband is missing and her home encased in a impenetrable bubble. She builds a home at the edge of the Enchanted Forest where she lives with her new born son, and she hides the sword until her son, direct descendant of the kings of the Enchanted Forest, can use the sword to save the kingdom. She was upset that Kazul ate Zemenar, the Head of the Society of Wizards, but only mildly so.

Sixteen years later, Antorell finds Cimorene and gets melted by her (again). Cimorene then gives her son, Daystar, the Sword of the Sleeping King. She basically kicks him out of the house and tells him to go walking in the Enchanted Forest, which is filled with all sorts of things that can transform you to animals or put you to sleep if you touch them. When Daystar frees Mendanbar from the wizard's spell, she is happy. Cimorene is the one that suggests that Shiara become Kazul's new princess until they can remove the politeness spell. After all, "Kazul will have no objection whatsoever to training the next Queen of the Enchanted Forest."
