But he was not successful, converting her into a bug instead. Thus, King Candy was free to govern the realm, with all of Sugar Rush's recollections of Princess Vanellope kept away. However, if Vanellope crosses the finish line in a legitimate race, her code will be reinstated, and the throne will be hers again.

Fortunately, she can recognise the kindness in others thanks to Wreck-It Ralph's companionship. The game's other teenage racers frequently mistreat her, but Vanellope is eager to make peace, referring to the rest as her "fellow racers." This demonstrates Vanellope's ability to forgive.

Vanellope is also highly determined, self-driven, and caring. Even after years of pain and being assured she could never race, the little girl never passes up the opportunity to realise her ambition.

Her caring nature is best exemplified in the scenario in which Cy-Bugs and Vanellope overrun Sugar Rush as the sole inhabitants unwilling to flee. She also has a sick sense of humour, as evidenced when she tricks the racers into believing that she can kill them for handling her like dirt.
