Princess Jasmine (Aladdin)

The beautiful and exotic Princess Jasmine is a strong, independent woman, looking for fun and adventure beyond the realms of her royal existence; she more than capable of looking after herself and isn't afraid to show it.

Jasmine is the only child of the wealthy Sultan of Agrabah. Up until her sixteenth birthday she lived a sheltered life in the family's palace and knew very little about the world that lay beyond its walls. She is a kind-hearted and free-spirited princess, with determined intelligence and a cunning streak to her character. Her companion and friend is Rajah the tiger, a furry guardian that is never far from her side.

The Sultan, Jasmine's father, is a strict but loving man who only wants what he thinks is the best for his daughter; he wants her to marry so that she will have someone to take care of her but she wants to marry for true love and experience life beyond the protective walls of a palace.

One night, Princess Jasmine sneaked out of the palace and into the town below, where she met a handsome young man named Aladdin and his monkey companion, Abu.

Aladdin fell deeply in love with the Jasmine and wanted to see her again, but, knowing that she was a Princess and he was just a street urchin, he thought this would be impossible and perhaps it just wasn't meant to be. His luck changed when he found a lamp containing a magical Genie that could grant him three wishes. With the help of the Genie, Aladdin visited Princess Jasmine at the royal palace and took her for a ride on a magnificent flying carpet.

Jasmine began to fall in love with Aladdin, realizing that he was the man she wanted to marry, but Jafar, an evil vizier and sorcerer, who plotted to take over Agrabah, threatened her happiness. Assisted by Aladdin and the Genie, Jasmine thwarts Jafar's treacherous plans and restores order to the Kingdom.

Seeing that his daughter has found true love, the Sultan gives Jasmine and Aladdin his blessing and they live happily ever after.

Together with Aladdin, Jasmine has been on many other fantastical adventures that have seen her ride magic carpets, foil kidnappings and jump pits of molten lava!
