Rapunzel is one of the main characters of Once Upon a Zombie and is considered the peacemaker in her group of friends. Her long, flexible hair comes in handy for many uses, especially to escape danger.
Personality
Rapunzel is the go-between, the facilitator, and the bridge between her zombie friends. If conflict is personal, she mediates, repairs, and helps find solutions. As a child, Rapunzel struggled with worrying about what other people thought and said about her. It took a while, but she eventually learned to let go of these fears. While Rapunzel misses her human self, she tries to make the most of her time as a zombie as well. Rapunzel is helpful, mature, gracious, polite and devoted.
Appearance
Rapunzel has grey skin full of stitches and scars, purple eyes, and very long blonde hair. She wears a damaged purple dress with yellow accessories and is often seen with no shoes.
Fairytale Character
The character Rapunzel comes from a German fairy-tale, written by the Brothers Grimm, of the same name. The story was about how a couple, who was expecting a child, gives their baby away to a witch in exchange for some rampion. The baby, whom she named Rapunzel, was born one of the most beautiful children on earth and grows long, luscious locks over time. The witch decides to lock Rapunzel up in a tower that had no stairs or door. When she wanted to enter she would demand Rapunzel let her hair down and the witch would climb it until she reached the window of Rapunzel's bedroom.
In 2010, Rapunzel became a Disney princess in the animated movie Tangled. The movie remains the most successful film adaption of the story, earning over 50 million dollars at the box office and winning many awards and critical acclaim.

According to the Once Upon A Zombie Facebook page, Rapunzel is able to use her hair as an antenae to make contact with the real world. This explains how she was able to access mobile devices as seen in the promotional videos on the official YouTube channel.
