Nell

**Princess Nell of the Stripe Kingdom** is a member of the Cursed Princess Club, and the first member that Prez recruited.

 Appearance

Nell has messy, shaggy hair in an ombre from white to red, with bangs that cover her forehead. Her sclera are entirely red, while her pupils are white. Her teeth are noticeably triangular, sometimes poking out of her mouth like fangs. Nell's outfit consists of a dark grey top with a diagonal white stripe down the middle and ripped dark grey sleeves; a skirt that has three layers, with a white-to-red gradient on each layer identical to her hair, tied with a red bow on the back; and a pair of red flats. A dark black-and-white striped arm warmer is on her right arm, while wearing a leg warmer matching the one on her arm is on her left leg. She completes her outfit with a tiara of blocky grey-and-white stripes, and a grey-and-white choker, and a pair of earrings that look like 3 black spikes on each of her ears.

## Personality

Nell is the most seclusive member of the Cursed Princesses, having a distinctly feral personality, including a child-like sense of possession. Her usual response (her public mask) to most interactions is to hiss and flee, or, in the case of a perceived slight, to glare threateningly. Jolie, her fiancée, has said Nell "does her own thing", and in more blunt words, Monika has stated she "never wants to do anything". A notable exception was when she went to the Bippity Bop Gala, out of her own volition, to ask Jolie's parents for their daughter's hand in marriage. Despite her outward expression of aggression, Nell is genuinely empathetic (her hidden mask), and responds to dangers to those around her. Her 'hidden mask' as accompanied with her curse making her respected in the club, and her warning that come from her premonition makes everyone to proceed with caution of the incoming future - or she might be do the precaution herself like how she mysteriously pushing the giant tent of the Slumber Party for whatever premonition that she see that makes her disgusted.

## History

Whilst the circumstances of her bewitchment are unknown, Nell's known history consists of being imprisoned in a dungeon by her parents in order for them to profit off of her abilities - born to be cursed to able see bad omens. She was eventually rescued by Princess Calpernia. Nell was the first official recruit of the Cursed Princess Club, and didn't get close to anyone until Jolie get recruited in the CPC and fell in love ar first sight with Nell. At the flashback that been told at Whitney's Slumber Party - is shown that Nell gets flirted with Jolie by silly attempts of wear eye mask with heart on one of it. It's unknown when exactly Nell replying Jolie's feeling, but the CPC established 4 years ago right after Prez cursed - so in the timeframe of that, Nell and Jolie becoming a couple secretly that CPC members are in unknown that they are the thing until Prez' curse reveal arc.

When Princess Gwendolyn joined the club, Nell infrequently appeared to glare threateningly at her for an unknown reason. Eventually, it is discovered that Gwen had been unintentionally taking up space next to Jolie, resulting in Nell assuming that Gwen was attempting to usurp her place as Jolie's girlfriend. Despite this misunderstanding, she helped to save Gwen from being devoured by Prez in were-spider form when she saw Gwen heading to the Barn by informing Curtis of the situation. Nell initially accused to be the culprit that tricking Gwen to breaking the most important CPC's commandment (the P and A, to never enters the barn) - but after getting vouched by both Gwen and Curtis about her innocence, she easily accepting the apology from CPC.

She later appeared at the Pastel Hospital as a volunteer with the rest of the club, where she has a premonition that appeared to prophesy the death of one of the club members. This premonition was later revealed to be untrue, as the one that die isn't literal CPC member but metaphotical of "the bad things at the club" that didn't needed anymore. Nell got dragged with Jolie and Thermidora that becomes so happy as the premonition fullfilled but no one actually die. Later on at the 'improptu' welcoming party of Whitney, Nell and Jolie finds out to be drunk as they swapping their crown. Nell shown to can't help Gwendolyn's Dinner Party directly like other CPC background princesses, but her reason it's because her mere existence should be secret or she could be taken away for selfish desire of her premonitory ability. This fear is the reason why CPC members that joins the Bippity Bop Gala so wary about her to secretly going along - and the CPC mistaken her 'only want' to join the gala as wanting to meet Stripe Kingdom's royal family when in reality is about her want to meet Lace Kingdom rulers as Jolie's parents. Nell searching Jolie's parents from her staring tree, while at it Asa gives her blanket (as her form of disguise to enter the gala) and some snacks, as well interupting Whitney that using her staring tree. Nell entering the gala and reunites with the CPC while delivers the goodbye message from Whitney. As the raffle winner announced with Gwen as the winner that wants the crystal given to her, right after that the crystal found out to be a fake but it's not bothering Nell because unlike CPC members that join the gala for chance to winning the crystal - Nell purely just wants to meet Jolie's parents. Jolie running to her parents and tells Nell if she wants to meets her parents, she could arrange safer way (instead storing herself in the chest) - but the secrecy is needed because Nell wants to surprise Jolie for asking of proposal. Jolie blushing for the idea of their relationship status to becomes more serious while Nell panic as she didn't has engagement ring right now, then Jolie taking out an engagement ring from her eyesocket with text "marry me Nell' - which shows that Jolie waiting for right moment to proposing Nell. They are happily engaged.

At the invasion arc, Jolie stops Nell that eager to help the CPC saving Gwen and her whole family from the Plaid troop by reminding that Prez' order to stay put is right. Nell telling her belief that everything gonna be OK until she suddenly gets a vision that making her to be so digusted. It's still unknown what Nell actually see as she didn't reply of Abbi that questioning her about what premonition that Nell just see, and instead she pushing the giant tent 'to the left' while claiming that everything will be OK.

After Jolie proposed to her, Jolie's parents were very accepting and ready to welcome Nell into their family - with Jolie's father even twisting her in happiness.

### Gwendolyn

Although Nell glared at Gwendolyn once she joined the Cursed Princess Club for thinking Gwendolyn would usurp Nell's place as Jolie's girlfriend, she helped save her by reaching out to Curtis about the situation of Gwendolyn approaching the barn. She was also somewhat glad that Gwendolyn was safe after she was toppled on by the materials Monika had in her room. Gwen has high respect towards Nell to the point that she decides the curse curing crystal should be given to Nell.

## Quotes

*"HISSSSS!!"*

*"What?! No!!! I **WAS** glaring at Gwen!! Because she's always clinging to Jolie, and that's MY GIRLFRIEND she's touching!"*

*"Stop making googly eyes at me or I'm going home..." [to Jolie]*

**"SOMETIME BEFORE THE NEW MOON WILL PASS, A MEMBER OF THIS CLUB SHALL DIE IN A FLASH."**

**"The flash I spoke of in my premonition... was the giant lightning flash that hit our forest. And though it's rare that my premonitions don't come true... Sometimes one change to a significant action... can open the door for a completely new path. And it seems like maybe... instead of someone's death, we've all chosen to depart with some things we no longer needed in this club."**

**"I know I get insomnia when something bad is looming around me, like one of my premonitions. I can't rest until I finally see how it all turns out, even if it's awful. It's the best sleep afterwards, though. When the stabbing finally happens or the kid finally gets pantsed in front of their class, mm, I sleep like a baby."**
