History Characters / SleepingBeauty

* LethalChef: She's never been on cooking duty before, even if she does eat their food. For one, she folds the eggs, ''unbroken'', into the dough while making the cake for Aurora.

* SimpleMindedWisdom: When the fairies are debating as to how to protect Aurora, Flora and Merryweather lament that Maleficent "knows everything" and can thus anticipate any plan they cook up. Fauna reminds them that there are a few things Maleficent ''doesn't'' know: [[EvilCannotComprehendGood love, compassion, and kindness]]. Her simple words trigger a EurekaMoment for Flora: they'll go undercover as mortal peasants and raise Aurora themselves, because the one thing Maleficent won't foresee is them willingly giving up their magic for love of the baby.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Merryweather is as sweet and good as the others, but unlike them she has no qualms about turning someone to stone if she's pushed too far.

* ButtMonkey: She gets the more humiliating misfortunes, such as losing her wings mid-flight and landing in a cup and being the "dummy" for Flora when she tries to make the dress, which wouldn't fit Aurora at all.

* FatalFlaw: [[EvilCannotComprehendGood Her inability to understand good.]] As pointed out by Fauna, Maleficent doesn't understand the concepts of kindness, altruism and empathy. The Three Fairies exploit this weakness to hide Aurora away by posing as peasant women rather than using magic. As expected, Maleficent is blindsided by this and is unable to find Aurora for 16 years (though it's mostly in part of her minions being absolute idiots and looking for a baby for 16 years). If Diaval hadn't seen Flora and Merriweather's magic fight, Maleficent's prophecy never would've been fulfilled.
* FauxAffablyEvil: Slips into this a few times. The first and probably best example is when she pretends she's not offended at being invited to Aurora's christening, only to curse the infant princess to die.

* TeamChef: Possibly, since she's the only one of the three who knows that "tsp" means "teaspoon."

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Merryweather is as sweet and good as the others, but unlike them she has no qualms about turning someone to stone if she's pushed too far.

* InkSuitActor: Her appearance is modeled after her voice actress Verna Felton, Disney's favorite lady for matronly comedic women.

* WideEyedIdealist: Fauna is willing to believe that even Maleficent might have some good in her. She's wrong, but it's the thought that counts.
-->'''Fauna:''' Perhaps if we reason with her...\\
'''Flora:''' Reason?!\\
'''Merryweather:''' With Maleficent?!\\
'''Fauna:''' [[GenreBlind Well]], she can't be ''[[ObviouslyEvil all]]'' bad.\\
'''Flora:''' Oh, [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe yes, she can]]!

* TheBabyOfTheBunch: Implied by her the shortest and having black hair while the others have grey. She's the most rash and impulsive of the fairies, and Flora also treats her [[JustAKid as if she's younger.]]

'''Voiced in French by''': Henriette Marion (Flora), Colette Adam (Fauna), Jacqueline Ferrière (Merryweather) (1959), Paule Emanuele (Flora), Creator/MaikDarah (Fauna), Jeanine Freson (Merryweather) (1981)\\

* TheBabyOfTheBunch: Implied with Merryweather, who's the shortest and has black hair while the others have grey. She's the most rash and impulsive of the fairies, and Flora also treats her [[JustAKid as if she's younger.]]

* BlueIsHeroic: Merryweather wears a blue medieval-styled dress and like her fellow fairies, she is on the side of good.
* BrickJoke:

* ButtMonkey: Merryweather gets the more humiliating misfortunes, such as losing her wings mid-flight and landing in a cup and being the "dummy" for Flora when she tries to make the dress, which wouldn't fit Aurora at all.

* CommanderContrarian: Merryweather is typically the one who voices the contrasting opinion.
-->'''Flora:''' ''[after suggesting they turn Aurora into a flower]'' She'll (Aurora) be perfectly safe.\\
'''Merryweather:''' Until Maleficent sends a frost.

* TheDitz: Fauna doesn't focus as much on the drama at hand as her sisters; she also doesn't comprehend, after 16 years living with and ''as'' a human, that eggshells probably won't taste good in cake. Or that the candles shouldn't go on the cake until after it's been ''baked''.

* GoodIsNotSoft: As probably the one time Merryweather is [[LetMeAtHim allowed to act on her temper]], after Diablo hinders them one time too many, Merryweather turns the scheming crow to stone ([[YouWillNotEvadeMe while he's retreating no less]]) and is quite visibly satisfied by the lifeless statue remaining.
* GreenAndMean: Inverted with Fauna. Her main outfits are green, but she's part of the friendly and heroic fairies.
* HotBlooded: Merryweather, who's quick enough to anger that she repeatedly tries to go after people when it won't end well. Like Maleficent.
* InkSuitActor: Verna Felton as Flora, Disney's favorite lady for matronly comedic women.

* KindheartedSimpleton: Fauna is a bit silly, but very sweet.

* LethalChef: Fauna, who's never been on cooking duty before, even if she does eat their food. For one, she folds the eggs, ''unbroken'', into the dough while making the cake for Aurora.
* LetMeAtHim: Merryweather to Maleficent at the beginning of the movie and near the end when Maleficent turns into a dragon. Flora has to hold her back, though.
* TheNapoleon: Merryweather who is the shortest but also the most impulsive and short-tempered.

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Merryweather's impulsiveness leads to quite a few dire situations, to the point of it being a FatalFlaw. For starters, she really should have known better than to tell a an obvious member of TheFairFolk they weren't wanted at the christening, especially since Maleficent at least acts like she wants to give them a chance to set the record straight.
* NiceMeanAndInbetween: We have sweet and naive Fauna (nice), impulsive and short-tempered Merryweather (mean), and calm and wise but occasionally bossy Flora (in-between).
* NotSoAboveItAll: Flora acts as the leader and most mature of them, but she's not above petty arguments with Merryweather.
* OnlySaneWoman: Merryweather in the scene where the fairies are preparing for Aurora's birthday.
-->'''Merryweather:''' I think we've had ''enough'' of this ''nonsense''! I think we ought to think of Rose, and what ''she'll'' think of this ''mess!'' I still think what I thought before: I'm going to ''get'' those wands!

* RedIsHeroic: Flora wears a red medieval-styled dress and like her fellow fairies and she is on the side of good.

* SupportingProtagonist: They are the real stars of the film and basically do most of the stuff for both Aurora and Phillip, even if the story is technically about Aurora.

The stuffy, but loyal head messenger and majordomo of King Stefan's court.

* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: The unnamed herald that kinda resembles him (same black hair and almost similar facial appearance) is never named or credited for a reason.

** In an early scene, where Merryweather proposes [[BalefulPolymorph turning Maleficent into a fat old hoptoad]]. The others chide her, [[AsYouKnow reminding her]] that their magic can only bring joy and happiness. Merryweather snidely responds that it would make ''her'' happy. From this we're to take it for granted that the fairies can't use any offensive magic. Until one of the final scenes, where Merryweather turns the raven to stone, which she shouldn't have been able to do, except that [[SemanticSuperpower she was quite satisfied with the result]].

[[spoiler:When Aurora and Phillip dance in the courtyard after they marry, Flora and Merryweather (watching with Fauna from a balcony) are still waving their wands and changing Aurora's dress colors alternately from Flora's pink to Merryweather's blue.
