However, one of the three good fairies, Merryweather, alters the curse so instead of dying, Aurora will only sleep until she is awakened by a kiss from her true love.
Mulan is without a doubt Disney's most iconic warrior woman. She is the first Disney Warrior princess who started a movement and influenced all the other Disney princess characters who came after her awe-inspiring story.
The only child of an aging war veteran, Mulan disregards both tradition and the law by disguising herself as a man in order to enlist herself in the army in lieu of her feeble father. Mulan as she appears in Mulan (1998).
In Disney's nearly 100-year history, there has been only one Black Disney princess — Princess Tiana in “The Princess and the Frog,” a 2009 animated feature starring Anika Noni Rose.
Moana is not held back in the movie because she is a woman, instead she is treated as an equal and a rightful successor of her father, who is the chief. She does not need a husband in order to become chief one day, unlike other princesses who needed a husband to be queen like in Princess Diaries 2.
Amity and Luz represent Disney's first animated LGBT+ female regular characters. Terrace confirmed Amity as lesbian in a Reddit AMA in September 2020.

Walt Disney Pictures presents The Princess and the Frog. . . . Meet Tiana, Disney's newest princess! When she and the spoiled Prince Naveen are turned into frogs, they find themselves lost in the Louisiana bayou, with no one to turn to but a lovesick Cajun firefly, a trumpet-playing alligator—and each other.
Anna's parents rush her to the sacred realm, where discussions with the trolls reveal that Elsa was born with her powers/ depigmentation and deafness, rather than them being due to illness or accident. Grand Pabbie troll heals Anna but removes her memories of Elsa's magic.
Snow White can be classified as having Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The Princess meets all eight of the criteria listed in the DSM-V to diagnose PTSD (See Appendix A). First, she directly experiences a traumatic event relating to a near death experience (Criterion A1).
Self-isolating, immobilized by the weight of personal expectations, and largely unable to experience joy, Elsa is the Anxious Girl's heroine. The model for Disney princesses has changed over the years, but every one of them has fallen somewhere between aggressively perky and blindly optimistic.

Moana is a Disney princess who does not have (or need) a prince.
Snow White is only 14 years old, making her the youngest. Jasmine, who is supposed to be 15, is the second youngest. Cinderella and Tiana are the oldest, both 19 years old.
