She often attends royal parties, so her closet is filled with special outfits in her favorite colors – gold, violet, blue, and pink. Gwen is graceful and poised and always looking for adventure. She has certain traits that she has inherited from her famous namesake - courage, a strong will, and impulsiveness. She also has a fiery temper and can sometimes be snobby and pretentious. Happily, she has bonded with a rare and stunning winged unicorn named Sunstar who works with the young Princess to help her realize her potential and develop her inner beauty. Sunstar will teach Gwenevere to make the right decisions, and keep a positive outlook, always. Gwenevere's (human) best friends, Fallon and Tamara are a great source of happiness for the princess and contribute enormously to her growth as a young woman and future leader of the kingdom. “Make it happen,” she says. Gwenevere and Sunstar share the Sun Stone, the stone of light, handed down by Gwenevere's mother, Queen Anya.
