Princess Buttercup

Background/History: After a short courtship Westley and Buttercup came to understand that they were in love, true love (that rarest of happenings). When she heard the news about Westley being attacked by the Dread Pirate Roberts and was killed (Roberts never takes prisoners), she was devastated and swore to "never love again". At about this time she was found by Prince Humperdink who took her to be his wife (hence the title of the story).

Personality/Motivation: Buttercup is driven by true love and will follow Westley to the ends of the earth. (Hence the 5 Recovery, she does not easily tire.) However, in moments of doubt, she can fall into serious depression.

Quote: "But how can you be sure?"

Powers/Tactics: Buttercup manages to survive hardships fairly well (as long as she's near her Westley). Because of this, I gave her above average PD/ED, REC, Running, and Swimming. She also has an above average EGO, because she's quite stubborn and it serves her well.

Appearance: Buttercup is known for her perfect breasts and was played by Robin Virginia Gayle Wright in the movie.

(Buttercup created by William Goldman, character sheet written by Blue Jogger.)
