Princess Bubblegum

Princess Bubblegum (or PB) is a main character in the Animated Short, as well as in the series Adventure Time. She is the benevolent ruler of the Candy Kingdom and the main love interest for Finn. Her real name is Bonnibel.

Appearance
Princess Bubblegum dresses as a traditional princess in a flowing, pink gown with and a gold tiara with a turquoise stone at the top. Her skin and hair are shades of pink, and her hair is made of bubblegum, as she is a hybrid of human DNA and bubblegum. A scientist at heart, Princess Bubblegum is seen wearing a white labcoat and goggles when she is performing experiments or solving equations. Princess Bubblegum has twelve outfits, and according to Natasha Allegri's formspring, she will have more outfits during season 3. These outfits range in color and style from an orange T-shirt and white shorts to a fluffy powder blue dress and pink cardigan.

Personality
Princess Bubblegum is a kind-hearted person. She seems to love all of her subjects unconditionally, and is known to protect them ceaselessly when trouble brews. Even beyond her own domain, Princess Bubblegum possesses a strong sense of morality and participates in politics outside of the Candy Kingdom. Princess Bubblegum is a very cultured and educated ruler and has an undying passion for science. Though usually sweet and good-natured, Princess Bubblegum has a malicious aspect of her personality that is shown whenever she is crossed, seen especially when she believed the Duke of Nuts ruined her appearence.

Finn
Princess Bubblegum acts as Finn's love interest. Though seemingly unaware of his love, Princess Bubblegum cites the hero as a great friend and will never hesitate to call on him for aid in royal matters. Finn and Princess Bubblegum share the same moralistic nature, and often work together to right any wrongs in the Land of Ooo. The princess sees Finn as her "flawless champion," and invests a lot of respect and faith in the young boy. In "To Cut a Woman's Hair," she said, without doubt, that she likes Finn, although it can just mean she likes him as a friend, though she has several times called him cute. Princess Bubblegum never gets mad at Finn, even when he made all of her hair fall out and her skin turn green in "The Duke," or when he lies to her about his tart-toting plan in "The Other Tarts." In "The Real You," she gives Finn a kiss on the cheek for saving the Candy Kingdom from the black hole he created.

Jake
Princess Bubblegum knows that when you call Finn, getting used to Jake is a part of the deal. Though they're good friends, sometimes Jake rejects telling the truth like in "The Duke" when they turned her green. Jake also intends to need to know all of the secrets Finn and her share as in "Slumber Party Panic".

Lumpy Space Princess
Lumpy Space Princess is arguably one of Princess Bubblegum's best friends. Despite their drastically different personalities, the two are often together and L.S.P. is a frequent visitor to the candy Kingdom during many of its parties and ceremonies.

Lady Rainicorn
Lady Rainicorn is Princess Bubblegum's companion and provides transportation when needed like when her people became frozen in "What Have You Done?"

Duke of Nuts
Princess Bubblegum has an outright hatred for the Duke of Nuts. Though this is all explained to be a misunderstanding between the two in "The Duke," Princess Bubblegum still loathes the Duke and doesn't trust him because he eats all the royal pudding whenever he is there.

Marceline
In the original pitch documents, Princess Bubblegum and Marceline are shown to be friends and rivals. They were once close to each other at the aurora watching in "Power Animal,". Their first encounter in the series happened in the episode "Go With Me" when Marceline was assisting Finn in getting Bubblegum to go to the movies with him.
