Canon

Headspace

Aubrey is one of the three younger members of Omori's party, being a cheerful, but often brash, teenage girl. She often gets into squabbles with Kel over the smallest of things, becoming visibly annoyed at times, but holds them back upon both Omori (as both her crush and valiant knight) and Hero, seeing the two as being more trustworthy and understanding than Kel. In battle, she's the second last to act, behind Hero, but is the party's main attacker, as well as bard, utilizing skills that both make use of her joyful personality and her proficiency in wielding bludgeon-type weapons.

Real world

Somewhat unlike her Headspace counterpart, Aubrey has not just matured, but also is much more abrasive and prone to anger at times, oftentimes bringing along her nail-tacked baseball bat whenever she, either alone or with her newfound gang of friends, The Hooligans, goes around Faraway Town. She lives in a now-decrepit home with her negligent mother, one street ahead of Sunny, and Kel and Hero's own, right near the town church. Although she still sees Sunny as her childhood crush to this day, her relationship with her prior friend group crumbled greatly ever since Mari's untimely tragedy four years ago. As for Basil himself, Aubrey's interactions with him haven't gotten any better, with a heated exchange between her and Kel (alongside Sunny) at said church revealing her ever-demeaning attitude towards the former.

Fandom

In general, Aubrey (at least as her real world counterpart is concerned) is seen as embodying a personality that resembles teenage angst, with visual fanworks of her character depicting the visible contrasting hues surrounding her, as well as her outfit, sported in bold colors.

Relationships

Fans, both casual and dedicated, have at least two fan pairings involving her: Sunny/Aubrey (Sunburn in fandom circles) and Aubrey/Basil (Photobomb). Whereas the former is a generally acceptable, and oftentimes endearing, character pairing, owing to official and fan canons' combined preposition of the latter having a crush on Sunny since their childhood days, the latter sees a fair amount of division, owing to her real world counterpart's complicated treatment of Basil; at least some fanworks of said pairing have depicted them in a reconcilatory status, with Aubrey now helping out Basil in his longtime hobby of horticulture and agriculture.
