Virginia (understandingcomplexity) as Mulan, tells her tale...
"The story of Mulan is a legend, a fairy tale, and a folk tale of the Chinese people. The earliest recorded version, Poem of Mulan, was written between 386 and 533 A.D. Mulan is a very courageous woman that goes to war instead of her father, and in disguise. Mulan is shown with traditional and ancient weapons, both the katana and the Chinese Dao sword. She is wearing traditional work shoes, the jikatabi. Her armor and cloak are all artistic representations, as are her helmet and hair sticks and tattoo. I really enjoyed creating a costume that was both beautiful and feminine yet made for war, in memory of this valiant Lady Warrior... Hua Mulan"
Resmay Bloodstorm (Meishagirl) as Big Bad Wolfs Wife, tells her tale...
"Once upon a time there was a happy little housewife, doing her husbands laundry humming away. She looks at his shirt....wait! That isn't her lipstick! Upon confronting her big bad wolf husband, He confesses he is in love with another!!! The b*tches name is Little Red Riding Hood. This makes Resmay madder than fire! and She .says !!! how could you...I will take you to the cleaners..so she packs up her three adopted piggie children and goes to her mothers! The little piggy children were misbehaving one day while she was at the lawyers filling out papers for child support, and so she tells them "don't make me get out the cookbook! They make it through the divorce because the lawyer saved her bacon!!!!"
Dakota Lavarock as The Little Mermaid, tells her tale...
"This fairy tale was written by Hans Christian Anderson, a Dutch author, in 1837. In his original story, The Little Mermaid was not a child, but a young woman of marriageable age. When The Little Mermaid turns fifteen, she is allowed to swim to the surface to see that world. She sees a ship having a birthday celebration for a handsome prince, whom she falls in love with from afar. A violent storm sinks the ship, and she saves the prince by taking him to shore, where he is found by a young woman from a nearby temple. The prince never sees The Little Mermaid nor realizes she has saved him. The Little Mermaid is sad and gets a potion from a Sea Witch that gives her legs and a soul. But, in exchange, she gives up her beautiful voice and will feel great pain when she walks. But, she will be able to dance like no human ever has before. Also, she must obtain the prince’s love and marry him; otherwise, she will die of a broken heart and turn to sea foam. The Little Mermaid goes to the surface, is found by the prince, and becomes his favorite companion. He likes to watch her dance, and she dances for him despite the terrible pain she feels with every step. The prince says he can only love the one who saved him, and he marries the young woman from the temple, a princess, thinking she is the one that saved him. The Little Mermaid’s heart is broken. As she awaits her death at dawn, her sisters come to her, bringing a knife they have gotten from the Sea Witch. If she kills the prince and lets his blood drip on her feet, she will become a mermaid once more, all of her suffering will end, and she will live out her full life in the ocean. But, The Little Mermaid cannot kill the prince, and throws herself and the knife into the water. Her body turns into sea foam, but instead of ceasing to exist, she turns into an ethereal spirit and rises into the air. "
Sheila Style (sheilastyle) as Maleficent, tells her tale...
