Pearlie

Synopsis

Pearlie is a park fairy appointed by Fairy Headquarters to keep Jubilee Park in order. She is full of over-the-top plans for parties and events for the park and its residents, and as she puts it, "everything has to be perfect" for whatever it is she's planning. She is assisted by Jasper, an elf who prefers to not do any real work. There is also Opal, an outback fairy from Australia sent to learn the ropes of park management from Pearlie.

Pearlie’s cousin Sapphire is jealous of Pearlie’s popularity in the fairy world and desperately wants her to be fired. With her assistant Ludwig, a common bat, Saphira sets out to spoil perky Pearlie’s day any way she can. Pearlie remains oblivious—always thinking the best of her cousin—while Opal and Jasper are aware of Sapphire's plans.

Pearlie

Appointed by Fairy Headquarters, Pearlie is a park fairy who keeps Jubilee Park in sparkling order. Her eyes are green, she has freckles, and her hair is light blonde with light turquoise highlights.

She is the protagonist of the series and she appears in all episodes. Pearlie is a do-gooder with a lot of compassion, kindness with a bubbly personality that is well liked amongst the inhabitants of Jublilee Park. She knows the Fairy Rules and follows them while warning others of "big persons" (humans) as fairies and elves cannot and shouldn't be seen by humans.

Pearlie is well meaning and has fun but of over-the-top plans and parties for the park and its residents and sometimes doesn't listen to her clients needs. Once she does slow down and listen, Pearlie sincerely apologizes changes the plans happily. Some of Pearlie's catchphrases are "stars and moonbeams", "hurley burley", "roots and twigs", and "buds and blossoms!"

She also loves singing and dancing and she always weara a pearly tiara with two colors; causally blue and pink during fancy events. Pearlie has no idea of her cousin's evil plans, always thinking the best of her. She has a crush on an autumn fairy named Leaf, and he likes her as well which is shown in the series. Pearlie's magic wand has a snowflake made of pearls on the tip (hence, the pearl is her namesake).

Opal

Opal is an Australian Outback fairy sent to America by the Fairy Council to learn Advanced Potion Making. Opal does not use a wand, instead she has a magic lasso. Opal lives in a hollow log at the edge of the desert garden within the park. A bit of a tomboy, Opal loves to dance, boots are her favorite footwear and she is also a bug rodeo champion.

Opal knows that Sapphire is mean and has a very conceited attitude which shows that she is always up to no good. Opal makes it known that she dislikes Sapphire and does her best to defend anyone from Sapphire's wrath. Opal can be impatient but she has a big heart who is always there to help her friends and other animals. Opal sometimes gets really irritated at Pearlie who at times gets in over her head when it comes to getting tasks done. Every now and then Opal doesn't think before she does something, but she admits her mistakes and works on them.

Some of her catchphrases are "Look out, bugs! Here comes Lasso Girl!" "Oh, no!" "pay no attention to her, Jasp!" and "I fear that Sapphire is up to no good." She loves bugs and reptiles as they are indigenous to Australia. Opal owns a pet frilled lizard called Ned.

Sapphire

Sapphire (pronounced Sapphira in the TV show). Her name is commonly misspelled because of how it is said on the show - even though the books clearly writes her name as Sapphire. She is Pearlie's vain, lazy, evil cousin and the main antagonist of the series. She calls herself the Queen of Darkness, as all she wears is sapphire blue (the same color as her eyes) and black that thinks she can overrule everyone else. Sapphire has been thwarted many times.

She lives in the Jubilee Park greenhouse within Jubilee Park and runs it as a successful, well maintained and gorgeous exclusive spa. Sapphire is jealous of her cousin's cheerful disposition, being on top of things who is well liked, and wants Pearlie fired. Sapphire spends her days plotting new and dastardly ways to sabotage Pearlie at every turn who is totally oblivious to her cousin's motives, but they often lead to Sapphire's own undoing. On very rare occasions, she helps Pearlie and her friends.

Sapphire has two ready and willing assistants to do her bidding: one is Ludwig who is a common bat, and the park’s Fairy HQ representative goblin Gobsmack, who will do anything for her. She often berates Ludwig: "shut up, you [insert bad name for Ludwig]!", and there has been times Sapphire was rude to Gobsmack and he didn't notice or care because of his infatuation for her.

In one episode Sapphire fired Ludwig and they were both happy to be away from each other...for a short time. When Pearlie went to check on Sapphire, her hair and clothes were in a disarray, she was bumbling, the greenhouse spa and her room was extremely messy and utterly disorganized. Ludwig was bored and missed Sapphire. Pearlie, Jasper and Opal did their best to get Sapphire to rehire Ludwig which worked.

Some of her catchphrases are "stop fooling around with me!" and "I'll trick them for sure!". She is named after the sapphire gemstone.
