History Fanon / Frozen

* A popular interpretation of Hans is that he holds a high rank within the Southern Isles/Arendelle navy (in redemption fics) and spends most of his time blowing up pirates.

** Giving Anna SuperStrength isn't common but isn't unheard of.

* Speaking of connecting Disney universes, a joke theory was that the parents end up surviving their crash... and end up living in the jungle raising who would eventually become {{Disney/Tarzan}}.

* "Agdar" and "Idun" are almost always the names chosen for Anna and Elsa's parents when they do show up in a fanfic, based on translation of the Runic inscriptions on their gravestones. These names have been confirmed in licensed books.

* Some fan works portray Hans as having fire powers to counter Elsa's frost, despite there being nothing supernatural about the character in the canon.
** Some fans use Hans' gloves and him putting out the fires (as in Hans using his hand to put out a candle) as "evidence" for his power or him having powers originally, but them being cut in production, given the entire motif of "the gloves coming off".

* Queen Marisol from the licensed books is AmbiguouslyBrown but fans see her as either Arabic or [[LatinoIsBrown Latina]].
** She has a Spanish name, but all of her subjects have Arabic names. One way of reconciling this is to postulate that her kingdom, Eldora, is an AlternateUniverse version of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Sahara Spanish Sahara]] which is independent of Spain but still has a Spanish-descended monarchy.

* Anna's hair color is [[HairColorDissonance notoriously vague]] however most fans consider her a redhead.

* Anna thought Elsa wore her gloves constantly due to a [[{{hypochondria}} severe fear of germs]].

* Arendelle as a city-state pops up as much in fanworks as it does as a country.

* Other fanfictions frequently tend to pair Elsa with a (usually male) OC, usually someone that's either one of her personal guards or someone that's on the royal council. Some fanfictions can also frequently depict the character as a commoner that fell into Elsa's good graces due to saving either her or Anna's life, and over time develops a relationship with her. If the OC is a woman she is often royalty or high class, though mysterious commoners or adventurers aren't uncommon.

* There are quite a few interpretations of Hans' motives. Some say he truly did it to escape the shadow of his brothers. Others say he was lying, and was actually sent by his brothers to off the young, unexperienced royalty of Arendelle to serve as the stepping stone of their empire. ''Once Upon a Time'' rolls with the latter interpretation.

* Elsa's most popular early design (with the [[ObviouslyEvil spiky black hair]]) is often brought to life in fanon as Elsa's EnemyWithout, SuperpoweredEvilSide, or EvilCounterpart. [[NightmareFuel Such as]] this [[http://akapost.tumblr.com/post/82825732873/what-the-hell-did-i-just-draw-again-okay-never comic]].

* It's generally considered that if Elsa hadn't been [[LockedIntoStrangeness born with powers]] she would have black hair, as seen in several pieces of oficial concept art. Despite this, modern [=AUs=] are almost always "no magic [=AUs=]" but keep the blond hair (probably because Elsa without blond hair looks very different).

* Anna thought Elsa wore her gloves constantly due to a [[{{hypochondria}} severe fear of germs]].

* An overwhelmingly popular reading is that Elsa is somewhere on the LGBTQIA spectrum - most likely a lesbian, with asexual as another possibility. She has no male love interest, and her storyline reads like a ComingOutStory. From early childhood, she knows there's something different about her. She tries to hide this part of her, but suffers miserably for it. The day that she embraces this aspect, and fully owns it, is the day that she becomes comfortable in her own skin and happy with herself. We're... we're talking about the ice powers, right? Many reviewers said that "Let it Go" sounds like a proud and jubilant coming-out anthem, especially with lines like "''That perfect girl is gone!''"

* Rapunzel and Eugene's cameo has led to the opinion that ''Frozen'' and ''Disney/{{Tangled}}'' share the same universe. Additionally, since Idun bore a suspicious resemblance to the Queen of Corona, some fans have concluded that they're sisters, and therefore Rapunzel is Elsa and Anna's cousin. Alternately, some theorize it could be King Agdar who is related to one of the rulers of Corona. This is taken even further with the fanon that Elsa and Anna's parents were going to Germany to attend Rapunzel and Eugene's wedding, but the ship sank outside the coast of Denmark, the shipwreck it left behind being the one [[Disney/TheLittleMermaid Ariel]] explores at the beginning of the film.
** One fan theory even believes that Rapunzel and Elsa were the sisters and that after Gothel took Rapunzel, Elsa was left with Anna's parents for safe keeping. Thus, the explanation for why they shut her out from the world. To keep her safe.

If the OC is a woman she is often royalty or high class, though mysterious commoners or adventurers aren't obscure.

* Virtually nothing about Hans's 12 older brothers are known, but any fan depiction of them is guaranteed to include ''at least'' a pair of [[AlwaysIdenticalTwins identical twins]]. And while the tie-in book ''A Frozen Heart'' later confirmed a pair of twins among the brothers, they were fraternal twins.

* There's a BrokenBase on whether Elsa is [[AmbiguouslyChristian Christian]] or worships Nordic gods though either one is acceptable. You're more likely to see the latter though.

* Even if you don't [[FanPreferredCouple ship Elsa]] and [[BrotherSisterIncest Anna]], a large portion of the fanbase views Elsa as being [=LGBT=] (typically lesbian or {{asexual}}) due to her not having a canon male love interest and that ''Film/XMen'' has taught a generation of film-goers that "a secret power that you are born with but are forced to hide but that you then learn to embrace, making you an happier person in the process" = gay.

* In modern [=AUs=] Elsa is always an introverted, socially incompetent hikikomori.
* "Summers" and "Winter(s)" if the girls are unrelated, "Anderson", and "Arendelle" if they are, are the most common surnames for the girls in modern [=AUs=].

* Sven is almost always a dog in modern [=AUs=]. Olaf is usually either made an adult human who either works for the girls parents, or is friends with them, though fics where Anna and Elsa are a couple but not related often make him their child.
* If you're going to put Hans back in somehow, his job or his first job ''must'' be a stableboy and shovelling horse poop, as that's a fairly good punishment for him. It's [[AscendedFanon canon]] now as of ''Disney/FrozenFever'', though he's still in the Southern Isles.

* Some fan works portray [[spoiler:Hans]] as having fire powers to counter Elsa's frost, despite there being nothing supernatural about the character in the canon.

* If you don't ship Elsa with [[IncestYayShipping Anna]], [[FoeYayShipping Hans]], or your random original character it's quite common for people to write Elsa as simply not marrying. Sometimes she is {{asexual}} and other times it is a conscious choice

* While not the most common fanon, and not as common as with Rapunzel, several fanworks explore the idea that Elsa ages slowly due to her powers or even that she is [[TheAgeless functionally]] [[ImmortalityBeginsAtTwenty immortal]].

* On a more nsfw line of thought, a lot of fanworks portray Elsa as being into some level of dom/sub kink.

** Giving Anna SuperHumanStrength isn't common but isn't unheard of.

* Due to the fact she appears in a short cameo in "For The First Time In Forever," and Anna resembles her to controversial levels, [[Disney/{{Tangled}} Rapunzel]] is often seen as being related to the sisters, most often her cousin.
* Anna having powers, typically earth or fire (or the occasional SuperStrength), is common.
* In modern [=AUs=] Elsa is always an introverted, socially incompetent hikikomori. She's often an architect major in college while Anna is an art or business major.

* In modern AU's the princesses are usually upper middle class though not royalty or politically involved. For [[WeAllLiveInAmerica whatever reason]] they're usually presented as Norwegian-Americans as well.

** It's canon now, as of ''Disney/FrozenFever''.

* Others give Anna fire powers which had been sealed when the trolls removed her memories of Elsa's magic. This is also not supported by canon.
** Some have Anna controlling nature based on several works of concept art.

The Little Mermaid part can't be true, however, considering ''The Little Mermaid'' takes place at about 200 years before ''Tangled'' or ''Frozen''.
