Character from Shrek by DreamWorks Animation
A princess whose defining characteristic is narcolepsy — she falls asleep mid-conversation, mid-battle, and mid-escape, and everyone just works around it.
Sleeping Beauty is the franchise's most committed one-joke character, and it works because the joke is perfectly executed every time. She sleeps. That's it. She falls asleep during the princess meeting. She falls asleep during the prison break. She falls asleep while the castle is under attack. The other princesses have simply accepted this and factor her narcolepsy into their plans — someone always catches her when she nods off. It's a parody of the original fairy tale taken to its logical extreme: what if the sleeping princess never actually woke all the way up? She's functional enough to participate in group activities but unconscious for roughly half of them.
Slender princess with long flowing hair, a pink gown, and a perpetually drowsy expression. She's frequently seen in various stages of falling asleep — slumped against walls, nodding off during conversations, being carried by the other princesses during action sequences.
