DG

DG was a Kansas farm girl, part-time waitress at the Hilltop Cafe and a part-time college student. Her parents were Hank and Emily and despite how much she loved them, she couldn't wait to get as far from Kansas as she could. Guys in black leather trench coats attacked her family and her parents push her into a tornado.

She woke up in a forest and there are two suns in the sky. Munchkins captured her, claiming she was a spy for the Sorceress Azkadellia. She rescued Glitch and he told her she was in the Outer Zone. He tried to lead her to Central City after her parents, but they got lost. They heard screams and saw Longcoats attacking a family. DG charged in to rescue them, and discovered that it was a timeloop projection of an event that had happened in the past. DG realized that an iron suit was set up to watch the projection, and released the man trapped inside.

Wyatt Cain didn't want to have anything to do with either of them, but eventually agreed to lead them to Central City, since he is heading there after Zero. As they crossed the Fields of the Papay, DG made Cain release Raw, who the Papay had trapped to eat later. Raw followed them, and DG remembered an old name for the Brick Route and then remembers the way to Milltown. Before the damaged tiktok residents attacked them, Hank and Emily reunited with DG.

It was not a happy reunion for long with the news they had for her. Father Vue, the leader of Milltown, gave DG the next piece of the puzzle left by her real mother. The quest the group started off on eventually revealed that DG is the younger daughter of the Queen and Ahamo and sister of Azkadellia. Azkadellia killed her and the Queen gave up her magic to bring DG back to life. She whispered the location of the Emerald of the Eclipse before blocking DG's memories with magic and sending her to the Other Side.

The group headed after the Emerald relying on the Queen's scattered clues. In Finaqua, they find the Cave and DG remembers what happened to Azkadellia. When she was between five and seven, she heard the call of a Wicked Witch locked in the cave and unsealed the enchantments. Then she let go of Azkadellia's hand and the witch possessed her sister. Once she learned that, the quest shifts again to saving the O.Z. from permanent darkness and Azkadellia from the witch.

DG is portrayed by Zooey Deschanel.

Answers to Catyuy's Questions

Is there a way for the Queen to unlock the rest of DG’s memories or are they mostly lost forever?

There's nothing there to unlock. The age thing plus the trauma of all of it: the witch possessing Az, then killing her, then parents sending her away. Hank and Emily were damn fine parents. The first few years with DG on the Other Side could not have been easy. And given Hank's line "The creepy cave nightmare again?" I think she never stopped dreaming about it. The pretty images of the O.Z. hanging on the walls were some visual memories, embellished by Hank's fairy tales.

Does DG dive head first into being a princess only to melt down later or does she attempt to pace herself?

I think she dives headfirst into helping rebuild the O.Z. and screw her title. She doesn't give a rat's ass about it and people are hurting. And when there is shock and dismay how she doesn't appreciate her position or how things used to be done, she gets further irritated that people would rather get caught up in the celebrity watch than feed starving children.

Raw spends a lot of time making sure she doesn't work herself into a coma.

Who is going to be Queen of the O.Z.? Will the current Queen remain or will she abdicate to Az or DG?

In Dragons and Ninjas, DG was Queen when she woke back up in the O.Z. In Pirates of the Nonestic, none of the noble class thinks DG can handle the position of Queen given how strange she is but Azkadellia is equally unwanted as Crown Princess. The population would be overjoyed with DG, but she doesn't believe that.
