Star Butterfly

"I'm a magical princess from another dimension!"

- Star introducing herself to Marco Star Butterfly is the protagonist of the Disney Channel and Disney XD animated series Star vs. the Forces of Evil. She is voiced by Eden Sher.

Background
Star Butterfly is an intergalactic princess from the Kingdom of Mewni, who has been sent to Earth by her parents to live a normal life, after many years of fighting evil in space. While on earth, she lives with the Diaz family, and takes Marco Diaz on adventures in other dimensions, and in battles with monsters.

Personality
Star is extremely energetic and friendly. She loves having fun, and she usually has an optimistic outlook on life. She loves to help others and whenever she sees that someone is upset, she does her best to cheer them up. She is a bit reckless, as she enjoys fighting monsters and doing wild things. Strangers, in her eyes, are just friends she hasn't met yet, and she feels bad if she hurts someone's feelings, whether intentionally or not. However, Star can be egocentric, wanting attention and getting frustrated with things that bother her. Thus, she gets jealous very easily. Star has a happy-go-lucky attitude and always puts a smile on everyone's faces. She also works very hard towards her goals, so much that she'll sometimes go sleep-deprived.
