Lucille "Lucy" van Pelt is the female protagonist of the Peanuts comic strip and franchise, however, she is reduced to the tritagonist in Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown, as her grandmother is the secondary antagonist of the movie and the main protagonist of the New Year's Day special For Auld Lang Syne and Lucy’s School. She is the elder sister of Linus and Rerun, who she bullies and belittles.

In the 2015 film The Peanuts Movie, she is voiced by Hadley Belle Miller.

Appearance

Lucy has short black hair in two minibuns and a light skin tone she wears a blue dress with buttons and black and white shoes her bow is coloured blue the same colour as her dress.

Personality

Her personality would be characterized as stubborn, crabby, vain, loud, temperamental and even violent, turning her into the most antagonistic character in the strip. Most of the strips she appears in show her threatening, complaining and/or taunting. She is easy to anger when she does not get what she wants. Occasionally, she is shown doing something selfless and caring to others when she is calmer, especially to Linus, the keyword being occasionally. However, she has her moments of real tenderness, such as when Linus replies to her despondency over the unfairness of life by saying "Well, for one thing, you have a little brother who loves you." Whereupon Lucy hugs her little brother and bursts into tears.

Lucy is rather creative at throwing insults that are completely uncalled for in both subtle and outright offensive ways, usually to Charlie Brown, but her general knowledge and common sense remained at the bottom of the ocean after her personality change: she is dumb enough to say things like "I hate it when I'm not around!" and "Snow comes up from the ground!". She also lost her baseball skills (she was initially a good player) and turned into the weak, terrible baseball player she would remain as for the rest of the strip's run, but would still show up for almost every game just because Schroeder does the same.

Lucy often prefers to do things in brute force ways, attempting to cure Linus' need for his security blanket by simply taking it from him, and giving nothing but brutal and obvious advice from her psychiatry booth. Like Charlie Brown, Lucy does not tend to quit, especially when it comes to her unrequited love for Schroeder, whom she is very confident and openly flirtatious around without realizing or caring much that she is rudely interrupting his piano practice.

In the later years of the strip, after the birth of Rerun van Pelt, Lucy begins to soften up and become nicer, without completely abandoning her tendency to moan.

Trivia

• Lucy has a crush on Schroeder, but it is a one-sided crush on Lucy side. Since Schroeder never showed any interest in Lucy.
