Personality/backstory:
Rue is a very difficult character to read. When the tale begins, she is in a relationship with Mytho more just because than anything else, yet once Mytho is threatened from being taken away from her by gaining his heart, she finds that she does indeed care. As her feelings are revealed to herself, and Mytho is pulled farther and farther away from her into Princess Tutu's arms another side of her appears.
In all actuality, her other side is Princess Kraehe who is the Raven's daughter. Constantly, she is told that the only people who can love her is her father and the Prince. So, in an effort to gain love and self-worth, she acts out against Princess Tutu. Many times, she makes it more challenging for Ahiru to give back the pieces of Mytho's heart. Other times, she kidnaps the Prince to lure Ahiru into traps. Her motives are only to gain a sense of worth; regardless, she is not a weak villain and is very much a threat to the rest of the cast.
Rue is the most advanced ballet student at Kinkan Academy, but her aloofness isolates her from her peers. So despite the fact that she is greatly admired, she doesn't have many friends. The manga and anime versions of her are almost completely different, as in the anime she's snooty but seems to have a good heart, and in the manga she's cruel and cold. In the anime, she and Mytho seem to be the ideal couple, but as he doesn't have emotions, the term "couple" seems to be stretching it a bit. In the anime, Ahiru considers her to be a friend. Like Ahiru, she also has a magical princess
Like as Princess Tutu is to Ahiru, Princess Kraehe is another side to Rue - and a not too nice one. Unlike Tutu, she uses force to retrieve heart pieces so that she may destroy them. In this anime, it would seem that Princess Kraehe loves the prince greatly, but the love she has for him is bittersweet. Perhaps because she suspects that if the prince gets all his heart pieces he won't choose her, Princess Kraehe tries desperately to prevent Princess Tutu from getting the heart pieces and returning the prince to his true self. In anime terms, she is one of the most complex characters ever. She acts out of loneliness and fear, but is not outwardly as weak as such character's generally are. She genuinely does love Mytho, having been aided by him at an early age, as he gave her a refuge from her Raven monster father, who she also yet loves. She stands constantly in the balance between her own, Mytho's, and her father's futures, each of which seem murky and incompatible from the start.
