| —Briar Beauty in "Apple's Tale: The Story of a Royal" | ||
Briar Beauty is a 2013-introduced and all-around character. She’s part of Sleeping Beauty as the next Sleeping Beauty, and she is a student at Ever After High. In the destiny conflict, she is on the Royal side out of a general belief that destiny is the way to go, though she is not at all looking forward to the century-long sleep that awaits her in her story. Since her life is to hit pause for a very long time, Briar tries to make the most of her life in the few years she has left before her incarnation of the story commences. She is acquaintances with everyone and friends with many, as well as in charge of the organization of many parties at school. But being the girl everyone knows is only part of how Briar makes her days matter; the other part is filled with whatever she hasn't done before - the more adrenaline-inducing, the better. Briar has no trouble managing all of that with her education duties, except for one little detail: she cannot prevent herself from falling asleep several times a day regardless of the time and place.
