Praline and her twin brother Coco were born to a happy couple living in Magix - a renowned candy maker, Montblanc (another connoisseur, incidentally), and his wife, Caramel (a witch with a propensity for fire). She and her brother grew up with the smells of cinnamon, mint and fruit permeated into their clothes and hair and were always the first to try a new candy their parents made.

Praline was eager to learn about the family business, enticed by the alchemy of her parents' craft, and attempted to self-educate herself. The fruits of her labors were sugarbombs, little candy explosives that created a thick pink smoke (drawing from the Anarchist Cookbook, no doubt) and the lollipop staves she and Coco currently use.

Eventually, Caramel began to teach Praline and her brother the same magic she taught their father. Coco was better at the art, but Praline still made wonderful progress. Unfortunately, these times came to an end.

The Fairy Tale book - a powerful relic that dictated the lives of the Fairy Tales within - was stolen and vandalized. The Fairy Tales, now threats, and black magic users, now suspects, were hunted down and picked off one by one.

Caramel, knowing that her family was no longer safe due to what she taught them, sent Coco and Praline away with their father, but she was almost too late; the hunters were almost upon them. Knowing they would chase her family, she stayed behind and held them off. Unfortunately, she was subdued and burned to death with the flames she herself conjured. All that remains of her efforts is a partially burnt town and a grave (even in their frenzy, they still had the respect to bury her; she was well liked by everyone until that point, after all).

Montblanc fled with his children in tow and found a warm welcome in Fudge Winkles, where he set up shop a second time, now alone in his craft. Coco and Praline were quick to adapt, but wondered where Caramel was; all Montblanc did when they asked him was cringe and leave the room. One day, Praline proposed that they go look for her; they would go and find Mommy and bring her home! Wouldn't Daddy be surprised?

Throwing caution into the wind, they set off for Magix, unaware of the absolute suicide the journey was. Their father, however, knew Caramel was dead and was rather concerned when Coco and Praline didn't return for dinner that night. He asked around and found that they had left town, intent on going somewhere far away. Horrified, Montblanc ran off in pursuit of them; all he knows is that he let his kids go out to play and he hasn't seen them since!

Praline is innocent, outgoing, adventurous and the scrappier of the two, somewhat stronger compared to her "squishy wizard" of a brother. She can take a and hit brush it off like it's nothing. However, she takes scolding very badly, reduced to tears when she's snapped at. She tries to "be strong," however, and tries to hide this. Praline is something of a Leroy Jenkins, rushing onto a conflict with little thought.
