Darling Charming



Darling Charming is a supporting character in the Ever After High series. Her fairytale is largely unknown, as she's generally just assumed to fill a generic damsel in distress role. She is secretly on the Rebel side of the conflict.

Personality
personality summary goes here (she hates it when people act like she's helpless)

Style
Darling dresses in a style that is feminine and "lady-like". In the show, she wears a silver and blue dress with pink accents and ruffles on the sleeves. She wears silver pauldrons on her shoulders as a nod to armor and that she wants to be a hero, and the connection between them looks like extravagant jewelry. She also wears silver heels. Her hair is usually up in a beehive-like style and is decorated with a pearl crown and feathers. In the book A Semi-Charming Kind of Life, she purchases a silver workout suit from the Elven District. She also wears a matching jacket and running shoes.

General Info

 * Darling is voiced by Marieve Herington
 * Darling is revealed to be the White Knight when she takes off the helmet in the show and says she is "no manner of man", but is a girl.
 * In Dragon Games, Darling's dragon is blue and pink and unnamed. When the doll was released, the dragon was named Herowing, later confirmed in the Ever After High Dragon Games mobile game spinoff, Baby Dragons.

Relationships

 * Rosabella Beauty is Darlings roomate.
 * She is close to Dexter Charming, who is her twin brother. Daring Charming is her older brother.
 * Darling gave Apple White mouth-to-mouth in Dragon Games. This has since been interpreted as a kiss, supported by one of the Dragon Games writers, or CPR, which is what it was changed to in the Dragon Games Junior Novelization.
 * She is admired by Chase Redford for being the White Knight, and she is later shown hanging out with the Wonderlandians who go to Ever After High.

General Info

 * For much of her childhood once suitors started going after her, Darling had her room moved to the grand turret of the castle and wasn't allowed to leave the castle. She ended up using this to her advantage; she had to climb a lot of stairs which built her leg strength, and she was left alone for long periods of time which she often used to work out. She was eventually able to sneak out by climbing down ivy out of the tower.
 * Darling is regularly chased by suitors, sometimes causing chaos wherever she goes in public.
 * Darling is shown to want to avoid talking about the destiny conflict.

Relationships

 * Darling is close to Dexter in the books as well, and their relationship is developed further. Dexter also lets Darling borrow his armor, though she says it's so she can walk around without suitors chasing her. She is shown to be protective of Dexter, especially when he's compared to Daring. As kids, they also promised to rescue each other if they needed help.
 * Her brothers (Daring Charming and Dexter Charming) are protective of her, and they chase off suitors which regularly attempt to date or propose to Darling.
 * Darling is pressured by her family to act like a damsel in distress and be a perfect royal lady. However, her mother is revealed to secretly be similar to her, as she has calluses on her hands and is the one who left a copy of Secrets of the Sherwood Forest (Madam Maid Marian's book) outside of Darlings bedroom when she was little. She also gave her a new copy later, stating it was one of her favorite books too, and she had it signed for Darling.
 * She occasionally hangs out with the other students in the Damsel-In-Distressing class, including Apple White, Briar Beauty, Holly O'Hair, Ashlynn Ella, Duchess Swan, and Cerise Hood. She mentions that Apple is nice, but tends to only see things the Royal way.
 * Darling talks personally to Madam Maid Marian, who takes on a sort of role model and mentor role to her.
 * She also sees Betty Bunyan, a blacksmith, as a kindred soul.


 * (for example, with Darling, her relationship with Rosabella is a lot more developed in the book vs the show)
