Personality: She has always had a great fascination with Human culture. Her respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to her, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, she tolerates in varying degrees.

As a young adult she joined a group advocating for an improvement in Human conditions. When she grew older, she became a bit more civilized, usually hanging around bars and taverns.
