The American Girl Dolls

Felicity - 1776

Elizabeth

Barker and Bailey - (Wang International dogs)

Felicity is boisterous, energetic and curious. She loves adventures and exploring the great outdoors. She's an avid gardener and is happy to take on any outdoor chore that is available. She'd much rather weed and rake than be couped up inside.

Elizabeth has a lot more quieter energy than her larger than life companion. She is sensible and down to earth, though she is quick to support Felicity in many of her big adventures. Elizabeth isn't quite as much of an outdoor girl - she hates to get dirty and balks at being outside in less than ideal weather.

Barker and Bailey are the girls' faithful companions. Barker is always on Felicity's side and is eager to run around and climb any tree with her. Bailey is a little less energetic. He is often found hollering encouragements sitting at Elizabeth's side in the shade. 


Georgette - 1812 (Caroline)

Regina

Edmund - (Wang International cow)

Georgette and Regina are elegant and lady like. They are quiet and often seen whispering to each other. They enjoy needlepoint and can sit for hours quietly absorbed in their stitching. Fashion and pretty things delight them. Edmund is their dearest friend. He also enjoys a good needlepoint project as well as playing the piano for Regina and Georgette's pleasure. He is often found reading aloud to them as they listen, entertained. 


Gretchen - 1850s Prairie (Kirsten)

Lars - (Wang International pig)

Gretchen is a very serious doll. She pride's herself on hard work and doing things well that are asked of her. She's happy to volunteer for whatever help might be needed. She loves having honey bees and tending to the need of the hives. Lars is always at her side, quick to assist her in their activities. For fun, they love playing games like horse shoes and jax. 


Delphine - 1850s NOLA (Marie-Grace)

Esther - (Wang International lamb)

Delphine is shy and can often be overwhelmed by crowds and situations that are getting out of control. She can break down into tears when frustrated, or flees the coop seeking solace and safer grounds. She doesn't like to be by herself, so anything she does, she needs her best friend along for the ride. Luckily for her, her best friend Esther has a calming effect on her. Esther is much more confident and usually knows the right thing to do. She's quick to notice when Delphine is starting to get nervous or uncomfortable and will step in and take ahold of the situation, either helping to make Delphine relax or taking her out of the situation. 


Wilhelmina - 1860s  (Tenney)

Irmaline - (Wang International cat)

Wilhelmina - or Mina, as she is known to her friends - is the quintessential southern belle. She is high maintenance, high drama, but is as loyal as the day is long. She might yell at you herself, but no one is allowed to disrespect those she cares about in front of her. She loves finery and fashion, as well as good food. She isn't too fond of chores and manages to charm her way out of doing them whenever she can. She's great fun to be around, and is never without a subject to talk about. If the other dolls are looking for someone to support their ideas or just eagerly listen to anything they have to say, Mina is the one to go to. Irmaline is just as high drama as her best friend, Mina. She also love to talk about just about everything, and the 2 of them always have so much to talk about, it can sometimes be tiring to listen to them. 


Victoria - 1904 (Samantha)

Hank - (Wang International elephant)

Victoria is a strange dollie. She is fascinated with everything supernatural and the occult. She loves to read spooky stories, especially if its by candle light. She loves to draw pictures - many of which are spooky like the stories she loves to read. She also is fascinated by magic and magic tricks. Hank enjoys learning magic tricks and also juggling and riding a unicycle. Victoria and he are often found riding their bikes - she, her 3 wheeled bicylce and he, his unicycle.


Cora - 1914 (#25)

Cora is a bit of a gossip. She loves to share news and has such an entertaining way of telling tales, she often has the other dolls in sticthes! Does she ever exaggerate? Maybe just a little, but if it makes the story better, then why not? She enjoys music and playing with her vast collection of teddy bears. She loves to knit and sew clothing items for them. 


Aggie Mae - 1920s (RW Lindseys)

Eddie Mae

Wellington - (Wang International duck)

The Maes and their faithful companion Wellington are always ready for something. Whether it's building tents in their bedroom, or a treehouse in the back yard, they love to just be doing something fun They are masters at keeping themselves entertained - for better or for worse. While they never intend to mess up anything or do something terribly wrong, it can happen. When you can actually get their attention- they can be a little hard to pin down - they will be quick to fix anything they have accidentally disturbed. 


Myrtle - 1930s (#21)

Elsie -  (#63)

Eustace, Eunice and Jebidiah - (Wang International chickens)

These 5 friends are the salt of the earth. Myrtle is practical and grounded, Elsie is sweet and soft spoken, and their good natured chickens are always right behind them. One of their favorite activities in the warm weather is to sit out on the porch in the evening and play music together. They also enjoy eating brownies and reading Whodunits. It's always fun to see who guesses the guilty party first!


Ginger (Rebecca) - 1940s

Doris -  (Emily)

Ginger and Doris are true fashionistas - though maybe not quite the crazy fashion divas. They love to look at fabrics, laces, and magazines filled with pretty things. They love to sew clothes for themselves and the other dolls. Doris can be a little nervous by nature - if something goes wrong, she panics. Ginger isn't quite level headed, but she's very sweet and will be quick to comfort anyone who is upset, even if she has no solution to offer. 


Mary Ellen - 1950s 

Clara (#61)

Meredith - (Wang International bunny)

Mary Ellen is a little heavy handed. She loves her friends - especially her 2 best friends Clara and Meredtih. She does have a tendency to be a little controlling, though its always with the best of intentions. Clara is the mother hen of the group. She's often doing whatever she can to provide for the other dolls and Mary Ellen will be there to make sure her friend isn't being unintentionally taken advantage of. Clara loves to cook. In fact, she's usually in the kitchen. ME isn't really a very good cook herself, but both she and Meredith are there to give a helping hand to Clara. Mary Ellen has gotten to be quite efficient with a kitchen knife - and this has become an unspoken threat amongst the other dolls. Meredith is an excellent organizer and keeps meals and chore charts organized. 


Jane - 1960s (#53)

Jane is high energy. She isn't always out on an adventure outside like Felicity, or building tents like the Maes. She loves to buzz around, seeing what everyone is doing. When it comes to holidays or events the dolls have planned out, she is quick to be appointed in charge, alongside Meredith. Jane has a special gift in which she can project her voice loudly over the crowd, getting everyone's attention. 


Marlie - 1970s (Julie)

Marlie is always chill and relaxed. She doesn't enjoy conflict of any sort, and if there's ever any issues, she's out of that room quicker than you can say "fight." She loves to lounge and listen to music. She has a ukelele she enjoys learning and loves to play board games. Game night is her favorite night of the week. 


Lisa - 1980s (#22)

Lisa love MLP, SSC and Care Bears. She can spend hours playing with her toys and watching her favorite characters on TV. She also loves to listen to music, so when she isn't in front of the TV, she frequently has her headphones on. She enjoys being by herself, cleaning her room. She moves at a very slow pace when she cleans. It's always done thoroughly, but what would take another doll 15 minutes, takes her an hour!


Marnie - 1990s (#GT 14)

Marnie is a book worm. She loves to read and write stories. Her stories are often about her collection of plushies, many of which she has made herself. She can spend hours in her own creative world. She's loves the holidays, and decorates her room for each one the earliest that she can, taking the decorations down only when it's times for the next to go up. Her best friends are Darby and BB and while she loves to spend most of her time with them, she also like to have some quiet time by herself, piddling around with her things.

Cassie - 1990s (AGOT #6.1)

Cassie is the embodiment of the "perky goth"- she's seems to never be down or depressed. She may paint everything black, but she will do it with a big grin. She loves her collection of goth albums, and if they come in vinyl, she's even more delighted. Records after all, have a much more gritty, soulful sound than cassette tapes. She enjoys writing morbid poetry and her own gothic horror - her favorite genre to read - and is a true child of the night. If you see a light slowly moving outside your window at 2 in the morning, it's more than likely Cassie out there bonding with the "Creatures of the Night", flashlight in hand, because she's night blind, even if she won't admit it. This makes her a late riser. It's a good thing she sleeps like the dead (she's disappointed her bed isn't an actual coffin) as most of her housemates are up and about in the morning. 

Sydney - Y2K (Nicki)

Sydney is a little bit of a polarizing figure. You either love her, or you hate her. She's a huge sports fan. Football, baseball, hockey, she's totally there for it. She also lives in Halloween mode, 24/7. You'll find her either watching games - live or on record, or watching horror movies or tales of the supernatural. She enjoys writing and then filming her own "found footage" movies with her sidekick, Amber. She plays softball and both ice and field hockey (field hockey and softball with her twin, Amber) where she gets her aggression out. While she and Amber might clash at times with certain members of the CFD - it's often a misunderstanding, or confusion - it isn't that she likes to be hard to get a long with. It's more a matter of she doesn't appreciate being accused of something she feels she didn't do, and will set whoever straight that she feels she needs to. She also has zero filter. She calls it being unapologetically honest. Others might call it rude. 


Peridot - the New Age Airy Fairy (Saige)

Peridot is all about good vibes, crystals, mediation, divination tools and astrology. She loves teas and herbal applications, and is always handing out some handmade lotion or face cream, as well as tea for an upset tummy or a tension headache. Her room is filled with shelves of crystals, books, an altar, and her walls are covered in astrology and moon charts. She always checks the planetary alignments, so she can align herself to flow smoothly through any  bumps that come along - retrogrades included. She won't make any important decisions until she "consults the stars" or her favorite tarot deck. Some dolls might say Peridot is a little spacey - she does have to focus on keeping herself grounded in the present. She will have a cow if any other doll uses a Ouija board - she has very firm opinions about them, and will run for the sage and her hand broom to "smoke out and sweep out any nasties that came through!"  


Euphemia Broom - the Halloween Maven (Blaire)

Hester Hiss - (Wang International cat)

Bunnicula - (Wang International bunny) 

Euphemia is the resident Halloween witch. Some say she even smells like pumpkin spice. She always has a smile on her face and is quick with words of encouragement or positivity. Hester Hiss, one of her dearest friends, isn't quite so positive. Always seeing the negative potential, Hester can be a bit of a doom sayer. Bunnicula is quiet and a little bit brooding. He can sit silently for hours just staring and watching the movements of everything around him. After awhile, it can actually become a little creepy. He says he is just taking notice, and both his observation skills and his memory are exceptional. The three of them are frequently found casting spells, or standing over their cauldron making potions and elixers. They are happy to share them with the others. The thing about Euphemia's potions is, they are either Tricks or Treats. They can work wonderfully and bring good things, or well.....let's just say they can be an interesting experience. Nothing ill is ever intended - Euphemia wouldn't hurt anyone on purpose. It's just more being a matter of the spells taking on a life of their own, and might react to some hidden agenda or energy that one has around them when they use one of her potions. Or the potion might decide that the best thing for the user is a complete disaster that in the end, teaches them a valuable lesson about themselves.

The Crazy Fashion Divas - 

Lucinda (#27)

Heidi (Kailey)

Lori (Kira)

Summer (Chrissa)

The CFDs - as they are known in short - are just that. Crazy Fashion Divas! Yes, they coined the name themselves. They dress to impress - or not, depending on how good their sense of fashion is. And not all of them know how to coordinate their outfits. But coordinated or not, everyone does take notice of what they are wearing, which is precisely the point. It's better to be noticed for the wrong reasons than not to be noticed at all. The group loves to do a vlog (and an accompanying blog) in which they give fashions tips, room decorating tips, cookie and cake decorating tips and also post downloads for their followers to print up. 

Summer is the driving force and inspiration behind the CFD vlog. Summer is a highly emotional creature, moved to tears for various reasons. Either something has touched her heart, or the stress has gotten to her. She is fiercely devoted to running her vlog and will sometimes push or run over others to keep the schedule in tact. Her fashion sense is definitely her own - it might border on weird or sometimes tacky, but always done with her own unique touch. Summer's drive and emotional nature has led to collisions with Sydney and Amber. She ends up finding herself locked in a battle with Amber until she calms down enough to sort it out. Later she is either embarrassed or feeling justified. She will eventually move on, after going over it in her head for hours or even days. 

Lucinda, Summer's right hand man, is technically the one who runs the ship. Summer may call the shots, but Lucinda sees that they land as planned. She's always impeccably dressed, coordinated from head to toe with an effortless that Summer sometimes envies. She's organized and efficient, and has a booming laugh that is sometimes accompanied with a delicate snort that she has had to learn to live with. Lucinda does everything with a sweeping gusto and confidence. When Summer has a fight with Amber, Lucinda will bicker with Sydney if she feels she must come to her best friend's defense, thus having earned the nickname The Enforcer, which turns her face beat red when she hears it. 

Heidi is the even keeled one of the group. Her clothing sense is far more casual comfy. She doesn't see the point of always being dressed to the nines, but still makes sure she looks tip top shape to her. She tries to remind Summer and Lucinda that while it's great to have a smooth running schedule, it still should be fun! She never tangles with anyone, and can't believe it should ever come to that when it does. She usually finds herself staring mouth agape watching the drama unfold. 

Lori is the gushing, sweet natured ditz of the group. She isn't exactly dumb, but sometimes the obvious flies right over her head. She loves glitz and glamour and likes to wear a mix of cute and sophisticated. She doesn't handle pressure very well, and if something last minute is left up to her, she freaks out and often makes a disaster out of the situation. Her easy going nature and ability to laugh at most things, makes her and her best friend Heidi a lot of fun to be around.
