Editing Rapunzel

On her birthday, Rapunzel crosses paths with a criminal named [[Flynn Rider]]. She blackmails him into helping her see the flying lanterns which mysteriously appear on her birthday each year. After leaving her tower, she encounters [[Sora]], [[Donald]], and [[Goofy]]. She is bewildered by the nature of the outside world. Deeper into the forest, the group is ambushed by a group of tough [[Nobodies]], causing Rapunzel and Flynn to flee. Sometime when Flynn is away momentarily, Rapunzel is found by Gothel, who gives her the tiara Flynn stole, plotting to split the two of them apart.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts III]], Gummiphone, Story, Kingdom of Corona:''''' "It was also Mother Gothel who had brought Rapunzel the tiara in an attempt to drive her and Eugene apart."</ref> Rapunzel and Flynn are eventually reunited with Sora, Donald and Goofy who also find [[Maximus]] and take him along.

At the tower, Rapunzel realizes she is the lost princess of Corona and confronts Mother Gothel. In an argument, Rapunzel realizes Flynn is about to be hanged for his crimes. Flynn manages to escape his death sentence and returns to the tower where he finds Rapunzel bound and gagged by Gothel who stabs him from behind. Rapunzel tells Gothel that if she lets her heal Flynn with the powers of her hair, Rapunzel will do whatever Gothel ask, even sacrificing her freedom for the rest of her life. Gothel accepts and while trying to help Flynn, he tells her that if Rapunzel heals him, she will die. He chops off her hair with a mirror shard, turning her blonde hair brunette, removing its healing properties, and causing Gothel to age to death.

==Design==

Rapunzel is a young woman with inhumanly long blonde hair and green eyes. She wears a pinkish purple dress with white sleeves, and is barefoot. While at Corona, her hair is braided with flowers. After Flynn cuts her hair off, it becomes shoulder length and brown.

Rapunzel is a spirited, kind, determined, and curious young woman. Due to her sheltered lifestyle, she often comes across as socially awkward. However, her introverted personality was short-lived as Flynn's meddling cause her to think of the outside world more and it empowers her to make a decision to leave the tower to witness the floating lights at the kingdom. Rapunzel is compassionate and bubbly, but can come off as naïve and indecisive when she was having a war with herself after escaping from her tower, without Mother Gothel's knowledge and permission.

Rapunzel does have a tendency to be slow to notice things. Despite Sora, Donald and Goofy being with Flynn the entire time she was going through her episode of debating to explore the world or go back home, she does not notice them until Sora speaks up. Additionally, she tends to be a bit naïve; Rapunzel lets Flynn know she never left the tower, having told him she hidden his satchel (which he could easily find with enough effort).  

When Sora, Donald, and Goofy appeared, Rapunzel is initially very skeptical of them, but warms up to them instantly. She is frightened when a [[Chief Puff]] [[Heartless]] scares her, but soon decides to bravely fight it alongside Sora and the party, and later tries to help fight when [[Reaper]]s attack.

Rapunzel's [[Golden Hair]] is noted to have powerful magic of healing.

 

Rapunzel uses her hair in battle to swing and fight enemies. She improvises by hurling her hair to tree branches and swing around to damage nearby enemies. She can also hold her hair and spin around furiously to deal damage in a wide area. Rapunzel can also use her hair as a whip to deal damage to faraway Heartless with ease. Her hair is strong enough to be used as a rope as she and Sora are able to swing together from one hill to another.

 

 

 

Aside from her hair, she is also known to be a member of the New Seven Hearts, one of seven whose hearts have inherited the lights of the [[Princesses of Heart]].

Rapunzel's base stats are 30 {{AP}}, 170 [[HP]], and 100 [[MP]]. She has 2 armor slots, 2 accessory slots, and 3 item slots, two of which start equipped with [[Potion]]s.
