Calliope McQueen

Crown Princess Calliope "Callie" Nova McQueen of Paradox is the oldest daughter of Queen Raven and King Consort Dexter Charming. She is a main POV character in TEJB. She was born on July 18, 567 SY and is 16 years old when TEJB takes place. She is very quiet and bookish, taking after her father personality-wise. She is a gifted musician, playing the guitar, bass, cello, violin, piano, and saxophone. Calliope loves her sister but is often annoyed by Thalia 's bubbly personality. She did not want to move to the Fairytale World and resents her parents for making her leave their home in New York. She has a hard time befriending her cousins (whom she didn't even know existed until they left Earth) and fitting in at Storybook High. She eventually becomes friends with Matthias Piper, Melody Piper 's son and DJ at the Red Shoes Dance Club, and Emery Haventhorn. Her roommate is Lily-Rose Beauty.

Calliope has long, wavy dark brown hair and violet eyes. She inherited her mother's widow's peak. She is extremely pale due to her anemia. She is constantly cold and wears warmer clothes almost year-round. She experimented with goth-like style in the past and has settled on a dark blouse and black jeans with heeled boots. She likes to wear lots of silver jewelry. Calliope is medium height, having been skipped by her parents' tall genes.

Calliope inherited her mother's dark witch powers, as did her sister. Calliope is uninterested in becoming evil or using her powers much, but is forced to wield her magic more in the Fairytale World. Her sister is much more eager to be a witch.
