Personality:
When we first see Rapunzel she appears to be a young girl with a really cheery personality even though for the many years she has been alive, she has lived within a tower, alone with only Pascal and her 'Mother' in pretty much isolation outside of that, so because of the situation she tends to be a bit naive when it comes to things and people from the outside. Since she had never seen anything before she would not know what was good or bad, only what Gothel had been telling her which she believes wholeheartedly to the point that she seems to lack little confidence in herself to even ask to do something she wants to do or have the confidence to go it alone.
Because of this Rapunzel has a lot of curiosity to want to go out into the world and see what is out there, but it took a long time for her to be able to even go as far as to touch the grass for the first time. Requiring her to be brave enough to go out even though she had been warned about what was out there. One factor to her finally being able to gather up the courage she needed to be able to achieve it was being Flynn entering the tower as he was someone who could actually take her to see what she always wanted to. Though even after she leaves the tower she has shown multiple times to switch between showing regret over her choice to defy Gothel and being excited and happy about the choice she made.
She had shown to do a lot of things within a small amount of time such as read books and make things, this is due of course to her being locked in a tower and also because of the amount she has learned during that time as well, since there wasn’t much one could do in a tower alone so she made sure to always keep herself as busy as she can. Another factor about Rapunzel is the fact that if she can if the situation calls for it is resourceful and think of how to deal with a situation should one suddenly happen such as when she first met Flynn/Eugene. While she had never dealt with such a situation before she had managed to knock him out with a frying pan and went about making sure that he was at least tied up before he woke up against. So while naive about what the world is like she is pretty smart when it comes down to it.
For most of her life, she had always wanted to go outside, see the world and experience it, instead of being trapped within the walls of the tower, after all, there is only so much in the tower without longing to go outside. She has only ever grown up with her 'Mother' so given this factor she can find it hard to disobey her, she has raised her, her whole life and therefore she is family in her eyes and just loves her mother, no matter what. Therefore when Mother Gothel tells her not to do something because it's for her own good, she usually agrees not to do it.
Though it took a long time for her to do it, Rapunzel can be determined once she sets her mind on something to then do it. Although it did take a long time for her to get the courage to leave the tower once she is out her determination and excitement grow as she goes along.
Key themes:
I believe the key theme for Rapunzel herself is rather simple. Learning to follow one's dreams no matter how scary or terrifying that might be and when you achieve that dream then figure out what the next one might be.
Another key theme is being able to find the strength in one's self as well be it to follow a dream you want or even if it's to stand up for yourself for the way you are treated.
Main Motivation:
Rapunzel's motivation, for the most part, is being able to see the lanterns that appear on her birthday every year. She wants to know what they are at her point in canon and find out why only that day of the year.
With Void though she gained another motivation and that is to stand up for herself and fight for what she wants.
Skills:
There is a lot Rapunzel can do. When you hear the song 'When will my life begin' it's noted that she can do the following:
- Play Guitar
- Knitting
- Cooking
- Baking
- Paint and Crafts
- Ballet
- Pottery
- Ventriloquy
- Candle making
- Sew Dresses
Her Hair:
There is a reason for Rapunzel's unusual length of hair and that is because of its magical healing qualities. When she sings an incantation her hair glows and can be used to either heal what she wants it to, make a person younger or as later canon showed once bring someone back from the dead. But that was a tear and when she arrives won't be available to do. It's also great to use as a night light.
