Charlotte Abelfreyja Drossel

Charlotte Abelfreyja Drossel (シャルロッテ・エーベルフレイヤ・ドロッセル) is a character

in the Violet Evergarden series. She is the princess of the Kingdom of Drossel who is set to marry Damian Baldur Flugel, the prince of the neighboring Kingdom of Flugel. After the marriage, Charlotte is now known as Charlotte Abelfreyja Flugel.

Background

When Charlotte turned ten years old, the Drossel kingdom threw a grand party to celebrate. For royalty, marriage arrangements officially begin when a child turns ten. Every single person she was arranged to meet was a prospective husband, and this fact made Charlotte sad since she felt like nobody really celebrated her birthday. The fact that her birthday didn't feel like her birthday and the thought about her feelings not mattering, Charlotte sneaked out of the castle and let her emotions out by crying. That was the moment she met Damian Baldur Flugel. He ensured her that it was okay for her to cry, and he told her to cry all she wanted; he would be there for her. The fact that he spoke with her so casually with no motives, made Charlotte really happy and ever since that day, she couldn't forget that moment. After the war, Charlotte received a proposal out of nowhere, not revealed from who. Determined to make the marriage be between Drossel and Flugel, Charlotte began studying on all the benefits a marriage between the Flugel and Drossel countries would bring to the Drossel country. She also laid the groundwork with her father and the cabinet, and eventually, Drossel chose Flugel family.

Personality

At first, Charlotte is seen to be a rather naive and slovenly young girl who is also honest and she will freely speak her mind, but she acts as a proper princess when need to be. She has no trouble apologizing for the problems she causes.

She has a tendency to cry whenever things don't go her way; according to Alberta, the Drossel family's court maid, Charlotte has a bad habit of forgetting who she is when she gets too emotional.

Charlotte claims that she is a crybaby with a short temper, however, she is actually a strong-willed girl, as seen when she claims that she will go hunting with Damian and will not let him leave her behind. She says that she had the education to be a fine match for any man. She is also self-confident as she tells Damian that she is sure that she'll be a faster ride than him.

Charlotte is a very hardworking, tough, intelligent girl who doesn't stop until she reaches her goals. This is shown where she began studying intensively on all the benefits a marriage between members of the Flugel and Drossel royalty would bring to the Kingdom of Drossel. She also laid the groundwork with her father and the cabinet so the Drossel would more likely choose the Flugel family, in which they eventually did. She is very caring, and holds those she cherishes close to her heart.

Charlotte is a young woman with porcelain skin and hazel eyes. She has wavy hip-length strawberry-brown hair with a braided crown. As a princess, she is usually seen wearing fancy clothes such as a long dress and a tiara.
