[ Personality ] :
This flighty broad is a particularly cynic character, who finds it hard to believe the acts of kindness done for her by others are actually as sincere as they're meant to be. In particular the interest her mother shows in what she likes and is attracted to. While her mother may actually be genuine with her interest, Rose hardly takes it that way and is often trying to 'one up' her mother's facetious signs of affection. When offering gifts to others, she does her best to make sure the receiver understands that it is simply a flippant return of a previous gesture they had shown to her at one point or another, or simply out of common courtesy due to whatever relation they may have.
If the act is not serious in nature, it is not to be taken seriously. Simple as that. This lends to her very stern and sometimes almost callous view and stand on most topics. This includes the practical jokes her friend John Egbert adores playing, which she often finds childish if not completely pointless. In her opinion, jokes and pranks are ridiculous wastes of time, even if she might joke around a little herself. However, her joking is usually made up of more mocking sarcasm than anything, making it difficult to pick out when she's teasing from her normal conversations, as sarcasm plays in a large amount of what she says.
Miss Lalonde is straightforward and unafraid to be truthful when it's needed, even if it may hurt the others feelings. Her interest in psycho-analogy takes a large role in this, and she is often found breaking apart the actions and behaviors of others, presenting it to them without regard to if they want this information or not. This attitude also leaves her realizing mistakes she's made or accepting when others point it out to her, owning up to them, whether or not the action was justified.
Despite this fact, however, she tends to be stubborn and headstrong when it comes to her decisions and following through with them. If an idea presents itself to her that has sound, legitimate reasoning and a high chance of achieving the desired outcome, she will often follow through with it in spite of what dangers she may face. If it is for the good of her friends, even more so, though she will likely keep that tidbit from them in favor of keeping up the masquerade of being facetious.
All of this is wrapped up into one little intelligent package, her intelligence demonstrated by her elegant use of vocabulary, even if it does leave her with a tendency of sounding rambly at times.
[ Strengths/Weaknesses ] :
Well, magic is definitely one thing going for her. Alchemizing a pair of knitting needles with a wizard statue, and then with the Grimoire for Summoning the Zoologically Dubious, she possesses the Thorns of Oglogoth, a pair of needles capable of wielding powerful dark magic. This does not, however, come without consequences. As the series progresses, Rose becomes more stoic and cynical, sometimes viewed as emotionless and non-caring. Because this behavior only seemed to start when she created the Thorns, it hints towards the Thorns having an adverse affect on her.
Her intelligence is also a strong point, even if the long-winded nature of it can be seen as a problem. She has superb problem solving skills, allowing her to not only pick apart her friends and those that contact her, but puzzles and cryptic information as well come with ease for her.
As for weaknesses, one of her greatest may be her cynicism. Because of this, as stated, acts of kindness and general interest are seemed as facetious, and only taken at face value. When she tries to look into the reasoning behind them, she can only figure personal gain or some other ulterior motive are involved. This may also put strain on relationships, as she insists her own acts of kindness are nothing more than friendly gestures, and that's where they end.
Being headstrong is also another downfall she has, as this leads her to do things her way, even if they are reckless. One such example of this is her plans on destroying the Green Sun, in which her dream self would likely not return from and she does not expect it to.
