Wallace is a major character of the We Bare Bears franchise, being a supporting character in the 2015 Cartoon Network original series of the same name, and its 2020 series finale film adaption, We Bare Bears: The Movie.
Wallace is the shortest, yet strongest-willed and most reliable leader of the Poppy Rangers. Wallace is an amazonic and adventurous little girl scout/park ranger and troop who has a close friendship with Ranger Tabes and the three titular bears, more especially Grizzly Bear. In a similar vein to Ice Bear, Wallace is shown to be the most capable in several methods and scenarios thanks to her sheer valor and hyperawareness, as well as her skill in kickball. As such, Wallace has the combination of being the strongest, the cleverest and the most reliable of the Poppy Rangers, but his maturity is mediocre despite being the leader. Wallace shows high commitment to her aforementioned fellow Poppy Rangers. Additionally, reflecting her leadership, Wallace is shown to be the most sophisticated and bravest of the Poppy Rangers, but there are occasions where Wallace still shows signs of paranoia nonetheless. Not only is she a genius and strong leader, she is also essential and virtually resourceful to the Poppy Rangers' childhood and teamwork. Outside of her career as a park ranger like Ranger Tabes, Wallace is typically seen casually playing with the other Poppy Rangers and having fun, more especially by flying kites.
Wallace is voiced by Cate Gragnani.
What Makes Her A Shojo Hero?[]
- Heroic/Honorable: Wallace works with the other Poppies as a heroic team in We Bare Bears in several scenarios, such as assisting Grizz, Panda and Ice Bear into defeating Agent Trout, their arch-nemesis, leading to the latter's deserved incarceration and getting his public reputation and image permanently and ultimately destroyed for unlawfully imprisoning and torturing the bears, along with indirectly saving the lives of Ice Bear and Chloe Park from a Subway Train by getting her kite flown away into Charlie's "house" with Panda in it, which led the latter into crashing into an electrical tower, causing a chain reaction that triggered a city-wide blackout, stopping the train and saving Ice Bear and Chloe's lives. Additionally, Wallace and the Poppies have defeated their arch-rivals, the Ivy Rangers, in the annual Peewee Ranger Games, who were known for their disrespectful, juvenile, abusive and spoiled behavior and even xenophobic behavior towards Grizz.
- Kind/Gentle: Wallace is very kind and affable to whoever they meet and/or interact with, especially to Grizz, whom she affectionately calls him, "Bear Guy," and Ranger Tabes, whom she often calls her "sir," and always follow Tabes and Grizz's commands regardless of the severity of danger that awaits from them.
- Bubbly: Wallace is extremely bubbly, shown when she and the Poppies take legitimate enjoyment of Grizz getting attacked by bats while embarking through the Howling Mountain Cave, Wallace and the Poppies investigate Grizz's supplies out of both enthusiasm and interest, and Wallace and the Poppies sprint out of the Ranger Station in excitement to fly their kites before the Hurricane Hal strikes, but Wallace isn't necessarily hyperactive.
- Absent-Minded: Wallace flew her kite outside in the Hurricane Hal, being oblivious of how dangerous the hurricane is, until the hurricane blew her kite and almost herself away.
- Optimistic: Wallace is a relentlessly optimistic kid who is always happy to help and reassure other people if required. Even during the most dangerous and darkest moments, Wallace still attempts to find a way out of it and offer other people hope, such as reassuring Ranger Tabes that she is still an excellent forest ranger, saying that she would "lose her other eye for her," despite getting the Poppies, Grizz and herself stranded in the Howling Mountain Cave and offering Grizz a positive influence by cheerleading for him in the Peewee Ranger Games in order to motivate himself from his lack of skill in kickball to defeat the Ivy Rangers and Ranger Zhao.
- Determined: Wallace is determined to help other people or save those from danger.
- Youthful: Being a kid, Wallace has a zest for living life to the fullest by going on exciting adventures, exploration and doing whatever she wants, as long as if it does not cause harm.
- Idealistic: Wallace believes that the power of teamwork with the other Poppies and being the fearless leader of the Poppy Rangers is powerful enough to take down any threats, which is no wonder she has a pure bond with the other Poppies. Additionally, Wallace and the Poppies plan on how to motivate Grizz from his lack of kickball skill in the Peewee Ranger Games to defeat the Ivy Rangers, that is through cheerleading. In her character portrait, Wallace is directly described as a "strong and fearless leader."
- Believes in the Power of Friendship: Wallace is best friends with not only the Poppies, but is close friends with her superior commander, Ranger Tabes, and the three bears, more especially Grizzly. No matter how much trouble and danger Grizz and Tabes got themselves and the Poppies into (along with Wallace herself), Wallace still desires to continue bonding with them and motivate them, especially in the darkest and most unpleasant moments.
- Has a Sweet Tooth: Wallace likes eating pizza, and once starvation took over them in Lord of the Poppies, Wallace attempts to crave on eating Grizz as she hallucinates the latter as a delicious hamburger.
- Short-Tempered: Wallace is quick to anger, such as when Grizz's incompetence hits Wallace and the Poppies' patience and when Wallace argues with the Poppies. In Lord of the Poppies, Wallace and the Poppies have a heated and toxic quarrel with each other that outright escalates into a brutal Ranger War.
- Is a Cutie: Wallace is extremely cute, among the cutest characters in the We Bare Bears franchise, being almost young and adorable as the Baby Bears.
