Pretty sure Tamara is noted for having a British accent and being African American. Maybe they couldn’t come up with the PC term for a Brit of African descent? Or the character needs to be capable of faking the accent…
I never really think of Wendy as being mischievous – Naive and compassionate yes (and a natural maternal/ care taker). My mind goes to Alice for this role. As much as I was expecting Alice to be Grace’s mom this sounds like Alice’s description so far.
But, age wise, I’d say it’s more likely Wendy. Alice was 7 and 7 1/2 during her times in Wonderland. Clearly, they could age her up in this show…but Wendy was facing growing up, moving out of the Nursery: most media seem to have Wendy being 12 to 13. I guess tomorrow we’ll know how truthful the ‘not seeing Peter Pan’ this season was. If Nealfire is the Peter Pan – and not just a Lost Boy – I’d wager this is Wendy and we’ll be getting an adventurer Wendy/Peter backstory. They’re going to have to do the Dylan Schmid/ Bae backstory soon before he grows too much! 😆
Ironically, Alice and Wendy are both voiced by the same actress (Kathryn Beaumont) in the Disney films. Still going with Alice based on both the description and the fact that the name “Heidi” has the exact same meaning as the name Alice.
