This is Mothrabro for Drew's House of Horrors: Holiday Havoc with the star of Dreamworks' Ruby Gillman Teenage Kraken being a gift wrapped mummy girl.
Ruby Gillman is the titular main protagonist of the movie. She’s a sweet, awkward 16-year-old kraken who is a junior at Oceanside High School. She is also a direct descendant of the Kraken royal lineage, and is destined to inherit the throne from Grandmamah, the Warrior Queen of the Seven Seas.
She might not be the coolest girl in school, but she is loved by her mega-selling realtor mom and laid-back supportive dad; even her little "annoying" brother thinks she’s OK. What’s more, her three closest friends Margot, Bliss and Trevin adore her, and their squad always sticks together. Even Ruby’s crush, the skater boy Connor, seems to recognize that there’s something special about the shy, winsome girl.
Ruby is a quiet, shy and awkward kraken who lives in the seaside town of Oceanside. Just like the rest of her family, she lives her life pretending to be a human. She feels occasionally embarrassed by her parents and sees her younger brother as annoying, but overall loves them all greatly. Being a junior at Oceanside High School, she tries her best to fit in with the other students, attempting to act as normal as possible. However, her awkwardness gets thrown at the forefront whenever she speaks to her beloved crush Connor.
Despite her persona, she had feelings of resentment towards her mother after she found out that her mom knew about her heritage but didn’t tell her. She also feels betrayed by “Chelsea” after she reveals herself as Nerissa, though she quickly bounces back after a heartfelt conversation with her uncle.
She has a reserved nature resulted in a lack of self-confidence and insecurity, which made many situations Ruby had to endure much worse for her. She was prone to heavy bouts of anxiety and some moments even led to panic attacks, such as when meeting the “new girl” in school, Chelsea, for the first time. Throughout the film, she starts to develop a sense of confidence, and by the end is able to become a brave and confident individual, someone who is inspiring to those around her.
Her interest in the ocean is an interesting one, and something that is seen all throughout the film. Even though she had never entered it, the ocean had always endeared her, appearing to be well-drawn to it. Her bedroom is filled with ocean-related knickknacks, and she reads a quarterly-released magazine called The Marine Biologist Quarterly, even if her mother expressed her objections. Despite this fixation, she was deathly afraid of the ocean, never wanting to be confronted by it in a situation, which stemmed from her mom’s anti-ocean rule. Her thalassophobia was severe when faced with trying to save a drowning Connor, she had a panic attack before accidentally falling in. This phobia was overcome after having a talk with Brill, deciding to take a leap of faith that would change her life forever.
Ruby, to put it mildly, is a math nerd. So much so that she originally decided to ask Connor, who she tutors in the subject, to prom with an advanced quadratic equation. She’s even a champion mathlete at her school, geeking out about the subject with her friends, even if they think it’s not very cool. Due to her ability to apply the steps of an equation to real life, she was able to evaluate the severity of the underwater volcanic area known as The Well of Seas by tossing a discarded ship into one of the currents. On top of this, she also figured out how to destroy the Trident of Oceanus by making use of the exponential growth formula using the three giant krakens’ laser eye abilities. This skill allows her to use her smarts to her advantage, making her more calculating.
