Beliefs

Western: Leo; Chinese: Dog
She tends to fit both eerily well, particularly her Chinese zodiac sign.

More spiritual, I'd think? But it's not a particularly important part of her life.
3. Does this character have a personal code of morals or ethics? If so, how did that begin? What would it take to compromise it?
Yes. It begins in the 12th century with kung fu flicks and really strong moral upbringing. Her sense of justice is through the roof. It would take a serious moral dilemma to compromise it.
4. How does she regard beliefs that differ from hers? Is she tolerant, intolerant, curious, indifferent?
Curious and tolerant, unless we're talking about aberrant behavior.
5. What prejudices does she hold? Are they irrational or does she have a good reason for them?
She doesn't really? idk, whatever is normal for a Japanese teenage girl.
Daily Life
1. What is the character's financial situation? Is she rich, poor, comfortable, in debt?
C...omfortable, really. She's got a good job right now and doesn't buy a whole lot besides food.
2. What is her social status? Has this changed over time, and if so, how has the change affected her?
...Middle class? The only serious change was going from being a dependent on her parents and being forced to live on her own in the Thor. Which has done good things for her self-esteem, thank you.
3. Where does she live? House, apartment, trailer? Is her home her castle or just a place to crash? What condition is it in? Does she share it with others?
Stowaways, hahahaha. Place to crash and wrap gifts, really. It's slightly messy, always, and the room is shared with one other person.
4. Besides the basic necessities, what does she spend her money on?
Food, martial arts stuff... occasionally a gift or two.
5. What does she do for a living? Is she good at it? Does she enjoy it, or would she rather be doing something else?
Right now, she's a primary school teacher. She's good at it, and having fun, but she'd really rather be on the police force.

KUNG FU. FOREVER. She spends her free time training.
