User blog:Raised By Wolves/Character Appreciation - Week 18: Ella



Welcome to Character Appreciation, a blog series that will run for the whole year alongside Project 10. Each week we'll take a look at one Total Drama character, what we like and dislike about them, how they've grown, and what we hope to see from them in the future. I'm Raised By Wolves, and this week, we'll be looking at the Fairytale Princess, Ella!

Overview
Ella debuts onto Total Drama in the premiere episode of Total Drama: Pahkitew Island. She immediately establishes herself as one of the nicest contestants, making Chris eager to "break" her. Ella also displays her love of singing, on multiple occasions, and mentions that her favorite season is Total Drama World Tour. She also forms close attachments to the fauna of Pahkitew Island. She wins the hearts of many of her teammates, forming a close bond with fellow contestant Sky. Throughout her time on the island, Ella tries to befriend Sugar, who consistently rebuffs her efforts out of cruel jealousy. Ella's songs begin to annoy Chris, who says that he will disqualify her if she sings again. However, in Mo Monkey, Mo Problems, Ella is forced to sing in order to save her teammate from a bear. Sugar betrays Ella, and has her disqualified after sending an anonymous note to Chris. Ella goes out with a bang, singing a beautiful goodbye song to everyone, and leaving the island with her head held high.

Opinions
Ella is by far one of my favorite characters in the franchise; she's incredibly pure, innocent and absolutely adorable. She bears great resemblance to Dawn from Total Drama: Revenge of the Island, but she's still quite different. What I really love about her is how she's a perfect example of the potential of Total Drama's interactions. For a character with only six episodes, she has tons of really fun and dramatic interactions with major characters in the season, mostly Dave, Sky, and Sugar. Her attraction to Dave was really cute in my opinion, even if it didn't serve that much plot importance. Her entire fairy tale motif was very original and fun to watch, not to mention her voice is phenomenal.

Best Moment: Her Goodbye Song.

Best Season: Total Drama: Pahkitew Island

Best Episode: Mo Monkey, Mo Problems
