If Disney Princesses were in D&D
If Disney Princesses were in D&D
#1
Right off the bat, you can probably assume at least one level dip in Bard for the musicality, but what classes otherwise? The whole speak with animals/animal companion thing most of them seem to have going strongly suggests Druid or Ranger to me (possibly full-Ranger otherwise for Merida,) and Mulan obviously gets a lot of some kind of martial levels, but how about it?

List of official Disney Princesses:
Classic: Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, Pocahontas, and Mulan
Recent: Tiana, Rapunzel, Merida, Anna, Elsa, and Moana
Neo/prospective: Anastasia, Gamora, and Shuri

Stage two: How do the stories change if the female characters are mid-to-high level badasses rather than Damsels in Distress? (Not so different for Mulan, Merida and Gamora, at least...)

The "Princess" series, by Jim Hines. Book 1: "The Stepsister Scheme".

Snow White is a mage, of course. Sleeping Beauty takes the 'natural grace' part of her fairy blessings to become a ninja. And Cinderella... well, this is her debut.

The trailer for "Wreck-It Ralph 2" shows the Disney princesses accepting Vanellope von Schweetz as one of their number, in which case I'd say she had a fair amount of Thief/Rogue levels. Not sure how to handle her glitch-teleport or racing skills, though.

It's also a really good series.

Easy.  The glitch is a teleporter ability, and as for the driving skills...

...Well, we might have to look into one of the DnD resource books that has stuff involving cars or the like, but we could aim for things that might be likened unto 'wheelman' or 'getaway driver'.

Oh, and Anastasia? I don't recall any Disney film with her; the "Anastasia" feature-length animated film was a Don Bluth production. Or is there something upcoming I'm not aware of?

Disney bought them out, apparently. Resistance is futile.

They did?  Wow, I hadn't heard that.

Honestly, all I know is what I found on the page I linked in the first post and a couple of others from the same google search. How accurate any of it is probably falls into your standard "some guy on the internet said..."

*Looks at all the fan works of the new Disney Princess lineups that include Princess Leia with her hold-out blaster - fan works that Disney has not said one thing about.*

You don't say.  Wink

Okay, I went and looked. Rights to the 1997 animated Anastasia are still owned by 21st Century Fox.

So, sorry, no official crossing over of Anastasia with the Disney Princesses -- yet.


EDIT: Oh, yes... is "Noble" still a class in D&D?

But maybe soon. Comcast has dropped its bid to buy 20th Century Fox from 21st Century Fox.

Amy Mebberson does a set of single-panel cartoons, Pocket Princesses, about most (not quite all) of the Disney Princesses sharing lodgings.  In episode 175 (near the bottom of page 15), they were shown fangirling over Leia at the time The Force Awakens came out.
