Rose Queen is the daughter of the Red Queen and King in the story Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There. Though she is a princess, Rose identifies as a rebel because she finds comfort in being a knight on the chessboard more than being a queen. She decides to fight and conquer, yet still uphold her role as queen. Taking pride in her royal status, Rose desires to bend the rules of her destiny by being both knight and queen.
Rose grew up in Looking-Glass World, Wonderland and moved to Ever After High when she was sixteen, before the Wonderland Curse was cast. She hasn't seen her family since. Her relationship with her mother and brother has become strained, to say the least. At first Rose didn't have a roommate because she arrived at Ever After High later in the year and was put in her own room. But now she shares a room with Stella Starlight.
On Legacy Day, Rose was about to sign the Storybook of Legends, but quickly asked the Headmaster if she could sign after the rest of the ever afters. After that, she wasn't able to sign due to Raven's decision. Rose couldn't sign the book because she found herself dreading to follow her destiny. This was when she decided to forever be a rebel.
In English, Rose Queen is voiced by Jeannie Tirado or Jamie Marchi. She has a sturdy, tense voice. She can come off as abrasive because of her harsh tone, but her voice doesn't lack a benevolent touch to it. She has a candid sense of humor that shows in her voice. Her voice is bold, but soft, with a slight rasp to it.
Rose is defiant. She's confident and can be blunt at times. She stumbles on her words a lot because she talks really fast. She's a bold and brave girl who is willing to try everything. Rose tends to rush things when she gets anxious and she can get pretty competitive when it comes to chess. Despite her many flaws, Rose is kind and caring and makes her own decisions. She always fights back and won't stop until she's heard and proven her point. She has a stern tone which makes her extra scary when she gets serious.
Her confidence hides her insecurities of not being strong enough. Rose always wants to prove that she's strong enough to be a knight, but has her lingering fear of being too weak. Though she takes her pride and walks out to the battle field with fierce determination. Rose's idol is Darling Charming because they're pretty alike. They're both princesses but Knights inside. Rose always looks up to Darling because of how strong she is and she strives to be as strong as her. Olive Pea also helps with Rose's fear of not being strong enough. She helps her get over the fact that she doesn't need to be strong to win a fight and that there are other attributes to being a knight.
She's introverted and an antisocial shut in, though that part of her doesn't shine as bright as her brave, wild side. Most people don't see Rose as an introvert, but she seriously values her time alone with herself. Olive seems to be the only one who notices this about her, but Stella has suspected it whenever she gets kicked out of the dorm room after a chess game had gone sour.
Rose is the most calm when near an ocean or Olive. She loves hanging out at the beach, or at least looking at one through her bedroom window. There were only so many beaches in Wonderland that were as beautiful as in the fairytale world.
Rose finds most of her happiness not when winning a chess match, not when training to be future knight and queen, but when she's by herself staring at the sky. The truest moments of bliss to her are when there never seems to be an ending to anything; life stops for a second to let her breathe.
Despite loving the thrill of fighting, Rose hates how hiding behind a sword is the only way to make her be respected or treated seriously. She will not play as a pawn. She is the final opponent, the strongest. She's the most valuable chess piece. Not a prize to be won. She shouldn't need a weapon or threat to show her power and value.
Rose embodies defiance. She never backs down from a fight, and not one to give up on something that really matters. (If it was something minor like homework or whatnot, she wouldn't give it a second thought to give up but ANYWAY) Especially with her mother. Her hot headed, supportive, prideful mother whom she thought she'd never have to let down. But times are tough, she tells herself, and she has to stand her ground. She's not going to let someone else tell her how to run her life, no way. This wasn't always the case, though.
Rose has been battling with the crisis of not being enough since childhood. Terrified of disappointing her mother and herself, Rose spent her days in Wonderland tirelessly preparing to become the perfect queen. She assumed a persona of herself, the regal, confident, intimidating queen fit to rule Looking-glass World.
When moving to Ever After High, however, she lost herself. Or did she find herself? No longer chained under her mother's demands, Rose discovered a new environment of self-expression and individuality. In Ever After High, Rose kept her persona in class, but she became more open to being herself. With more freedom to choose, Rose rebelled from her destiny, as she interpreted it as she must abandon her individuality to become the perfect image of a queen. She decided it wasn't a destiny worth living if she could not be herself. Basically, she had an epic self-enlightenment journey, but it all kinda went crash-and-burn from there.
As her legacy became a more pressing issue in her life, Rose found herself debating whether she return to her persona or embrace herself. She drowned in the belief that being herself was not enough. While still maintaining her position as a rebel, Rose's internal war with herself began. Should she be the bold, unnerving queen, or the defiant, reckless rebel? Which one was fake? Which one was real? Was she both?
After Legacy Day passed, Rose refused to limit herself to the matriarchal figure she'd originally set out to be. She's become outrageously defiant and strong-willed, creating her own boundaries to her destiny. Nevertheless, she lives in constant fear of not living up to her expectations, of not being enough.
Rose has a light toned skin color and a short, masculine physique. She is 5'0 feet tall and loves to punch people's faces in whenever they mention it. She has wavy and curly blood orange hair with an orange ombr effect at the end (Rose wanted her hair to embody fire). She has semi-light, sapphire blue swimmable eyes. They sometimes change to a gray-blue from time to time, which shifts her usual loose similarity to her mother's appearance.
Rose has golden round earrings along with a red/gold/pink color combo knight armor designed outfit. Her outfit is meant to represent dragon scales due to her favorite quote, "the brave men did not kill the dragons, the brave men rode them". Rose has always been a fan of red. It's her signature color. She wears a green good luck charm given to her by Olive on her belt.
Rose loves to play chess in her free time and practicing her sword fighting skills is great fun. She also enjoys spending time at Bookend with Princess Olive Pea. Her favorite drink is a double whipped fairy sparkle latte. She SERIOUSLY LOVES her smoothies and lattes. 80 percent of the time, she's getting her afternoon smoothie. While it may not be an interest and more of a hidden talent, Rose has an extraordinarily beautiful singing voice that Olive is in love with. "wait, what?" She's a musical lover as well.
She's Wonderlandian, so she's fluent in riddlish. Rose knows morse code as well, for survival skills, and she's trained in all skills concerning war. While war on a chess board in Wonderland has a completely different type of training, Rose believes that a good knight and queen should know how war works in all aspects of the word.
Rose acts as a guide to Alice's successor while ruling her own kingdom and chessboard. She can only fulfill her destiny after she is married to her Red King, as the majority of her destiny is ruling along with her husband. Rose also interacts with Alice and the White Queen's successor and overall aides in Alice's journey through Looking-Glass Land. Rose entirely disagrees with such a legacy, the only part interesting her is ruling her kingdom. Determined to keep her royal status yet not follow her story's path, Rose must play her cards right to be both queen and knight.
Rose and her mother have a difficult relationship. Red Queen was always too attached to Rose and would stay by her side all the time, which caused her shift to Ever After High to be drastically heartbreaking. She was so proud of her daughter and wanted to teach her everything about being a queen. However, after Rose refused to finish her signing, their bond shifted. Red went livid and seldom spoke with her after that. But later in the year, Rose's mom grew to become more understanding of Rose's decisions.
