ROUND 1A, MATCH 11 OUT OF 16!

Propaganda Under the Cut:

Queen Cinderella Charming:

She's kind, she's funny, she learns to use a sword, and she's related to Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Red Riding Hood. She helps the protagonists any chance she gets and even hosts their mother and step-father's wedding. She never gives up and  never lets her fear stop her. Absolute queen (literally) <3

While she isn't hugely relevant in the story itself, she is always down to help out the protagonists where she can. When they need one of her slippers, she sneaks it into their bag without them noticing. She calls them family. She loves her daughter too, and is a badass mom.

When the main characters need her glass slipper for a spell, she snuggled it into their bag, and she has a daughter named Hope <3

I think she’s a minor character in the first book, but she’d really nice and stuff!

Because I LOVE HER!! also she has a daughter called Hope who got kidnapped by rumplestiltskin at one point but that is besides the point. She is a strong independent woman and we love those she was NOT about to sit around doing nothing and i love her for that

Ella of Maidenvale:

She was old and crotchety but she gave really good advice and she died :(

Ey I don't think I've mentioned this before but I might as well throw out there that I headcanon Ella of Maidenvale (Cinderella) as Chinese b/c Cinderella is a variant of a 9th century Chinese fairy tale (it's called Ye Xian if anyone wants to look it up!)

LOSER'S BRACKET NOMINATIONS!

It is time to announce the LOSER'S BRACKET!

The Loser's Bracket is meant to give some love to characters who lost early, so anyone who has made it to the Quarterfinals and farther (even if they lose there) has gotten far enough they don't really need the love of the Loser's Bracket. During our last tournament Red Riding Poll, the Loser's Bracket winner was a character who hadn't even made it out of Round 1! This is for all the characters who might have been less recognizable but still awesome, to all the characters that got overshadowed by others.

The rules for nominations:

The Loser's Bracket will be either a 16 or 32 single elimination bracket, depending on the amount of nominations that are sent in.

Unlike the main tournament, where the polls each lasted a week, the polls for the Loser's Bracket will last only a day. That means the entire Loser's Bracket will probably last around a week.

Nominate as many characters as you want, but don't nominate the same character multiple times. Be mindful that the most nominated characters will be the ones that will make it to the bracket. Also nominate characters one at a time.

Propaganda from the Main Tournament will not appear, but feel free to submit any propaganda you want for why the character should win the Loser's Bracket!

Nominations open today and will close on the 15th of January, the same day the Quarterfinals of the main tournament loses.

Be respectful! Just because your fave didn't make it as far as you wanted in the main tournament or the Loser's Bracket, doesn't mean that the other contestants aren't worthwhile either! Remember, every character in this tournament have people who love them just as much as you love your fave, so please be courteous!

NOMINATE CHARACTERS HERE

Under the cut is a list of every character who has lost & which round they lost in. Feel free to consult the list if you want to jog your memory on which Cinderellas you might want to nominate.
