Orson

**Prince Orson**, also known as the **Potato Princel**, is one of the members of the Princels.

## Appearance

Orson is the tallest out of the Princels, with dark skin and short blue hair. He has an oval-shaped head and small freckles on both his cheeks, giving his face somewhat of a resemblance to a potato. He wears a blue long-sleeved jacket with gold trimming, with his kingdom's light blue fleur-de-lis symbol in the middle. He has a gold crown around his head and circular glasses. His pants are light grey, and he wears light blue sneakers.

## Relationships

### Monika

Orson first met Monika along with the rest of the Cursed Princess Club at a furniture store in the Pastel Plaza, but neither got the chance to ask the other their name.

The two later met again at the Bippity Bop Gala in Episode 123. In the gala's lobby, Orson saw Monika's Turtles of the Round Table costume. Not knowing she was in crow form inside the costume's helmet, he admired it assuming it was a life-size replica, but she was able to transform back into a human before he could walk away. They recognized each other and introduced themselves as the characters they were dressed up as for the gala. They then began to pretend-fight as their characters, and as the night went on, they got snacks and continued to chat about Turtles of the Round Table in the lobby. Orson was able to admit to Monika that he felt more comfortable talking to her about the things he liked than with the other Princels, since they had all bonded over the things they hated; however, it came out badly, leaving them both embarrassed.

## Quotes

"Oh yeah. We have our own vocabulary. "Blaines" are the nickname we give for the best-looking 1% of the men who get all the girls while all of us Princels get nothing but a lonely and miserable life because of our unlucky genes."

""Ex-Blaine" means when a Blaine explains something condescendingly to a Princel."

"Hey...but I've been making pies lately..."

"My mortal friends call me Orson, but to those who pose a threat, I am Mertle, legendary wizard of the Round Table! Now show me what you've got!!"

"I-I'm having fun away from everyone too. Though... to be honest, I don't think my friends would be very happy knowing I was ditching them to be with, you know,... a chick."

"It's hard to explain, but... We all bonded over hating stuff together. It's kind of our thing. But... sometimes that makes it hard to talk to them about what I actually like-- N-not that I meant-- I- I was talking about the books!!! I just said it weird!

"Guess our hangout was nothing special either then!! You're a **jerk** Monika!!"

"...Just ignore what everyone else is saying."

"It's like in Turtles of the Round Table, remember? In the Lagoon arc, when Shellfire fights the Pharaoh of Shrieking Bullfrogs, who paralyzes her by bellowing out all her greatest fears?" But Fireshell draws into her own shell to calm down and recharge her mana... She closes her eyes and takes a slow, deep breath ten times and repeats her clan's mantra after each inhale and exhale... Until finally, she evolves into her final form of the Red Snapper--"

"Y-you did it, Monika...!"
