Eating --
One of the very first experiences Lyds had upon arriving on Earth was a kind resident offering her some fresh food. She has been obsessed ever since, and likes to go to restaurants and other eateries in search of things to try. She is known to follow her nose, and if someone has a window open while they are cooking she may poke her head in. She is very unabashedly outgoing, and may well knock on the front door if she smells something too interesting to ignore. She has no concept of what is or is not good, however, and has to learn everything for herself. There were only a few things to eat on her Homeworld, even at the best of times, and only for energy. It served its purpose, like everything else, and thus things like taste and presentation were not important. Whenever she has a moment spare, she will go exploring for food places to try, or she can be found at the library reading cook books and looking at the pictures. She watches a ton of cooking channels online, and on the television when she can.
Experiences --
From martial arts to coloring books: Big Lyds is fascinated by literally every aspect of Earth life. Her world was vastly different, and having hobbies was a rare thing indeed. Everything was task and purpose oriented: no one did anything just because they wanted to, or could. The idea that someone can just have a whim and then follow it, that things like ‘games’ and ‘hobbies’ exist at all, is brand new and overwhelmingly exciting. She will leap feet first into any new experience, and takes notes of all the things she likes in a notebook she carries around with her everywhere. She calls it her Handbook for the Newly Earthed, though it is mostly written for her own eyes and she only shares it with others to brag or to figure out things she has already done and what is new to her. Trying so many things can get a bit confusing, after all, so it is good to have references.
Virtues:
Facilitative --
Having grown up alone on a world of shadows, Lydia is strangely decisive and can easily take charge when it is needed. Big Lyds has a very big personality, and it allows her to be confident in her decisions and, of course, loud enough to have those decisions heard. She might not be the best at making decisions that turn out well, or fixing things that are broken, but the fact remains that she will always be there to make a decision and get things moving in a direction. Up or down. This trait allows her to rally the troops when she needs to, and in more casual settings it helps her to join in on activities that catch her interest. Or perhaps get some humans to join her in something they might not usually want to do. Somehow, she makes even a terrible idea almost sound like a good one, because she is always one hundred percent behind herself when she speaks.
Confident --
Almost aggressively so, as seen above, Lyds is nothing if not self assured. This also translates to her own self image, and she is almost impossible to embarrass. She is capable of taking almost anything in stride, not bound by the more human ideas of what is normal and what is strange. While she does her best to learn and adapt to the society she is living in, she cannot create those feelings and insecurities, nor does she really understand them. She is supportive of others, at least in this way, as she suddenly believes everyone should be able to do whatever they would like to, as that seems to be the way of things on Earth. On her Homeworld, after all, it was not even a choice, so to her it seems like a true shame that not all humans chase their dreams or take risks with wild abandon. She is a very fun being to be around, if one is looking to get into trouble or to do something new and push some boundaries.
Flaws:
Obtrusive --
Lydia has a habit of inserting herself into situations that do not necessarily involve her. It ranges from knocking on random doors in pursuit of food, to jumping into conversations or joining groups at play in the park. She will sometimes ask to join a stranger on their errands, or join in on loud and interesting conversations. Of course, most of the time, this behavior is met negatively and she is either asked to leave or completely ignored, but she does not take offense to it. She knows enough to go and find somewhere else to try, and not keep pushing. Still, the initial intrusion is generally frowned upon, and most barely know what to do about her showing up out of the blue. It gives her a very confusing aura, even though she is, at the end of the day, mostly harmless.
Egotistical --
Always looking out for number one, ultimately, makes Lydia a very selfish person in the scheme of things. She tends to put her own instincts, her wants and needs, before anyone else even enters the equations, and her choices are often of the ‘me first, others later (if at all)’ variety. She has not only been alone for a long time, but was also a part of a society where a being was simply a part of a whole: no one was individual, and thus no one cared for or did anything for anyone else. One’s existence was isolated, and only to serve a purpose. Free of that, Lydia is overwhelmed by the freedom in front of her, and seeks to absorb it all for herself with the vague idea in the back of her that some day it might be taken from her. While she loves to do things with others, it’s more to be seen, and for them to show her what they are doing, and less because she is trying to help them or going out of her way to be useful to anyone.
