Cinderella is a Blood Maiden, and a member of the Dawn Liberation Front. She is introduced in Mary Skelter: Nightmares, and has appeared in every installment since.
Profile[]
A girl who speaks like a maiden of refinement. She has a tendency to lose track of what she says when speaking with Jack.
Despite her sometimes holier-than-thou attitude, she actually is very modest, and when she notices that she may have worried someone, she feels down on herself. It also seems she's not used to being praised by others.
Her Blood Libido makes her fixated on cleaning, doing so to effectively the entirety of Dawn HQ as a pastime and being possibly obsessive-compulsive about it. She's also very concerned with her appearance. The loss of a single item, from a pendant to one of her slipper-shaped earrings, can send her self-image tumbling to zero.
Relationships[]
Nightmares[]
- Red Riding Hood: Cinderella's relationship with Red Riding Hood seems to be that of two sisters. Red Riding Hood considers herself to be Cinderella's older sister, and Cinderella refers to Red Riding Hood as "dear sister".
Mary Skelter 2[]
- Thumbelina: Once, Cinderella and Thumbelina were best of friends. Following Cinderella's disappearance from the Dawn, Hitsuka, the leader of the Order of the Sun, was killed by someone who resembled her. As a result, Thumbelina felt betrayed by her friend and Dawn as a whole, leading to her and her sisters' resignations as they rejoined the Order.
- Once Cinderella joins the party, the two of them are able to resolve their differences.
- Red Riding Hood: While they may have had their differences, Red Riding Hood and Cinderella were very close, with Red Riding Hood considering herself to be Cinderella's big sister. Red Riding Hood even vouches for her after her alleged murder of Hitsuka, insisting that Cinderella would never do something like that.

Pre-game[]
Cinderella has been a Blood Maiden of Dawn for well into her youth and adolescence, however they're unwilling to deploy her due to her melee focused fighting style that exposes her to a lot of Marchen blood, and as a result having a high risk of entering Blood Skelter Blood Skelter. Desperate to prove herself worthy of going on missions, Cinderella left the Liberated District on her own. Having been gone for so long and with no means of contacting her, she is presumed MIA or even dead.
Chapter 3[]
Cinderella, having returned some time ago, is cleaning the halls of Dawn HQ when Jack crashes into her as he rushes to the lab, scattering her cleaning utensils. While quite miffed at his impatience, she lets him go as it appears he has something important to do, and his own cleaning efforts are unlikely to meet her standards.
After Dawn concludes their meeting, Cinderella barges in, declaring her participation in the expedition. After going through introductions and expositions, Cinderella is asked why she did not report her return to anyone in Dawn, to which she responds that she was preoccupied cleaning every inch of HQ, much to everyone's exasperation.
In the Downtown Area, the Blood Team soon faces the area's Nightmare. All seems well as they retreat, only for Cinderella to let loose a dreadful scream. One of her glass earrings was lost in their escape, and she's become inconsolable about it. Her subsequent hysteria and the comments derived from it cause friction in the party before it's quickly broken up. Red Riding Hood promises Cinderella they'll look for it as they explore the area, though she reminds her that they'll all be risking their lives with the Nightmare still loose and invincible. Cinderella is mollified by this reasoning as they proceed deeper into the area.
As the search continues and the earring is nowhere to be found, Cinderella becomes increasingly distraught. The party takes a moment to alleviate her concerns before the Nightmare shows up again. Just as everyone prepares to flee, Cinderella spies the earring stuck to the Nightmare's body. She's raring to go get it back by force, but the others drag her away, as the area core is still undiscovered and thus the Nightmare is still immortal. While Cinderella is still disquieted by the loss of her earring, she now knows where she is, and is prepared to follow everyone's instructions to get it back. Red Riding Hood clarifies their plans to destroy the core, and move on.
Once the Downtown core is found and destroyed, the Nightmare makes one final appearance. The beast falls after a long battle, but suddenly it begins to speak, much to everyone's surprise. It drawls out an apology to Snark into a strange square object before it explodes. Cinderella can only watch in shock as Jack jumps into the explosion to save her earring, berating him for such recklessness. Jack can only remark that he empathized with her feelings of being so attached to a seemingly small thing before he passes out, and is brought back to HQ.
In the Rescue Center, Cinderella and Miko watch over Jack as he awakens. The former is still worried for him due to his reckless behavior, but he simply reiterates how he can understand her desire to hold onto her jewelry, just as he cannot let go of his desire to climb the Jail.

Cinderella was a member of Dawn as a child, and was good friends with Thumbelina and Red Riding Hood. As she grew older, she began to put more and more pressure on herself, feeling lesser to the other Blood Maidens. Once Kaguya is introduced to the Dawn, Cinderella's paranoia is worsened, having overheard a conversation where she believes Professor Tohjima only needs 7 Blood Maidens and will throw Cinderella out of the Dawn.
After this, Cinderella would run away to the Downtown Area to kill Marchens in an attempt to prove herself. She was considered missing, and possibly dead for a few months, until the death of Chiaki. Members of the Order of the Sun claimed that a girl with "long blue hair down to her hips" and wearing a Dawn uniform had ambushed them while on an expedition in the Jail, and had also killed Chiaki. The Thumbelina sisters would abandon the Dawn and join up with the Order of the Sun, and were named Hitsuka as Chiaki's successors.[1]

| “ | A girl who stopped aging because of Blood Skelter. She speaks with grace and pride, but she's actually very pessimistic, and is often found down on herself. She is also often found getting a lot of encouragement from Rapunzel. | ” |

Approximately 10 years before the events of the game, Cinderella had gone missing from the Dawn. Despite attempts to look for her, she could not be found anywhere, and later it would be alleged that she had even killed the leader of the Order of the Sun. Thumbelina and her sisters defected to the Order, and became their new leaders.
During Chapter 7 of the game, Otsuu and her party would begin exploring the Downtown Area, and during their exploration would come across Cinderella, who still looked like a child despite nearly 10 years having passed since her disappearance. The party encountered her while in Blood Skelter, and after managing to revert her Blood Skelter state, Cinderella would run away from the group.
Later on, after Cinderella is officially recruited into the party, it is revealed that Blood Skelter prevents a Blood Maiden from aging, so despite nearly 11 years having passed since Cinderella's initial disappearance, the fact that she had spent those 10 years in Blood Skelter meant that she still remained a child, both physically and mentally. She would initially be distraught at this fact, trying her best to make herself seem like an adult, though with the help of Rapunzel and Hameln she learns to accept what happened.
Mary Skelter: Finale[]
| “ | An eloquent, but snobby Blood Maiden who thinks highly of herself. With Jack's help, she has learned to embrace herself for who she is, but she is prone to entering depressive spells when she does not get her way. She still has over-the-top reactions to things. | ” |

Once the Dawn had made it up to the surface, they were attacked by Massacre Pink. Despite their attempts to fight them off, they proved too strong to handle, and so Hikari warped everyone away to the nearby Jails.
Cinderella would awaken inside the Frozen Jail Tower, and would quickly meet up with Red Riding Hood, Thumbelina, and Kunai. As they made their way through the tower, they would encounter Toh, Snow White, and Kaguya. The two groups would merge into one larger party, and after finding Haru, Towa Kadowaki, and meeting Jabberwock, they would begin setting up a camp inside the Eiserne Tower, and the subsequent towers.
