[ Personality ]

• [natural positive] Protective- Willow is very protective of her younger sister, even though she is only younger by a few minutes. She is terrified that her baby sister will be hurt by someone or something, so she always took it upon herself to protect her since her father wouldn't. She was the one that had to make sure she was fed, and when their father got abusive, she took most of the abuse so that Violet didn't. She always made sure, to the best of her ability, that she wasn't hurt by anyone and she had everything she needed, even if that meant going without food or warmer clothes for her. She likes to think that her loving and mothering side came out with her protective side and her taking care of her sister side. She still protects her sister, and even her father, from peacekeepers and from abuse. She makes sure that she isn't taken from her sister and that their father isn't hurting her like she is being hurt.
  
  
• [produced positive] Street-Smart- Growing up in a house where she wasn't taken care of, Willow had to learn how to take care of herself and her little sister. That meant becoming street smart. She learned how to know when people were out to get her and how to make it so people always thought she was innocent. She learned lots of things about the world and learned how to do so many things: lying, stealing, cheating, pick-pocketing. She doesn't have much of a formal education, but she knows how to read for the most part and how to handle things around the streets and that's really all she feels like she needs. She knows how to get what she needs and that is all that is important.
  
  
• [natural negative] Stubborn- Willow is a very stubborn girl. She will not leave or back down until she gets what she wants and needs. She has yelled at her father before for coming after Violet and then sat down and taken the abuse to stop him from hurting her sister. She often isn't stubborn for things for herself; it ends up that she will need something to keep she and her sister alive and she won't stop until she gets it. Her views on the world are not up for discussion and neither is what she knows she needs. She is often mistaken for loud, overbearing, and bad, because she is stubborn and doesn't know when to put down her weapons and just stop. She doesn't know when to keep her mouth shut and her head down, except when she is taking something she shouldn't be taking.
  
  
• [produced negative] Cautious- Despite being stubborn and not knowing when to back away, she is very cautious and weary of strangers. She knows that people can hurt her and take her away from her family so she is careful. Her father is a large part in her weariness, years of abuse at his hands has caused her to know more pain then any nine-year old should have to know. She knows the pain of physical and mental abuse; she also knows the pain of hunger and starvation and being on the verge of death. She makes sure she is careful not to get caught or be able to be kidnapped by a random man that decided he liked her looks and her personality.
  
  
• ["wild-card" trait] Sticky-Fingers- Willow has been called many things in her lifetime- thief, bitch, lying scum, pick-pocketer, ignorant child- but the one thing that always struck was sticky-fingers. That is what she is though. She doesn't mind being called that, only when people talk badly of her using the term does she get upset. She steals to keep her family alive. She only takes what she and her sister needs and doesn't even steal for her father. She only takes bits of food here or there and maybe a new dress if one was falling apart. Most people would look at that name and say she is bad and evil, but honestly she is only doing what she needs to to keep herself and her sister there. Sticky-fingers is a strong term for what Willow does, but she doesn't care.
