Template:Game Template:Character

Wendy is a character that appears in Neverland in Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories.

Personality

Prior to her adventures in Neverland, Wendy is reluctant to leave her childhood and become an adult, despite her father's insistence to do away with her childish fantasies, most of which seem to center around stories of Peter Pan. Wendy seems to have a natural tendency to play a motherly role, taking care of her little brothers in her parents' absence and telling stories to the Lost Boys under Peter's care.

Wendy is extremely smitten with Peter Pan, and at first has a rivalry of sorts with his female sidekick, Tinker Bell. However, Wendy and Tinker Bell eventually find themselves on friendly terms. By the time Wendy's visit in Neverland comes to an end, her outlook has changed on growing-up; she becomes much more willing to move on with her life, having witnessed the consequences of remaining eternally young.

Physical Appearance

Wendy is a considerably tall young woman around the age of twelve, with big blue eyes and curly, light-brown hair which she ties back using a blue bow. She also has bright red lips. During her adventure in Neverland, she is clad in her blue nightdress and black slippers, having been spirited away to Neverland by Peter shortly after preparing to go to bed.

Abilities

Wendy has no apparent abilities. However, something about her obviously suggested that her heart lacked darkness, as she was suspected of being a Princess of Heart. This quality, whatever it was, remains unknown.

Origin

Wendy's appearance in Kingdom Hearts is based on her appearance in Walt Disney's animated feature, Peter Pan (1953). Her voice actor from this appearance, Kathryn Beaumont, returned to voice Wendy in the North American version of Kingdom Hearts; she also provided the voice of Alice.

Transitively, Wendy's portrayal in Peter Pan was in turn based on the character of Wendy in J. M. Barrie's stage play Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, and the resulting novelization Peter and Wendy, published seven years later. She is also believed to be derived from the character of Maimie Mannering from Peter Pan's first story, Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, which was first seen in 1902.
