Go ahead. Be honest.

You know you want to.

Apologies for that, Sockpuppeteer--about the fact that you felt it necessary to create a sockpuppet journal for this, that anon wasn't enabled, and the amount of time since you've posted this. Anon has been fixed now.

Anyway, moving along, the reason I chose to describe her as introverted is pretty simple. In game, the characters don't have any lines that aren't related to each other other than the... kind of required ones. Level up, reviving each other, kills while using their ability, badass or a badmutha kill, headshot kill, spawn a Catch-a-Ride, want to trade places in the car, dueling challenge.... They're all things that tell the people you're playing with or the player that something has happened. And while it was a choice that the designers made, I chose to include it as part of her character. Even then, however, I didn't mean to say that she is a traditionally quiet girl. She isn't shy or timid. I just wanted to say that--unless she felt it necessary--she doesn't speak. She won't waste the words to tell you she thinks you're a fucking idiot if it's that painfully obvious. And that doesn't mean that she'll be slow to give input either. Honestly, I'm not quite sure where you got that from in her personality, or in the way I play her, so if you have anything in specific in mind, I'd like to know what problems you have.

As for the choice to use the word introverted to describe her, it's true that that is how I see her. A bounty hunter isn't exactly going to be an extroverted person, and though there are extroverted bounty hunters out there, I'm sure, she went to a deserted planet to seek her treasure where her only interaction with people was either to work together to reach their goal, or to get a new mission. It's a kind of lifestyle choice that struck me as something an introvert would choose. Plus, the fact that you're chaotic, sadistic and self-assured does not necessarily mean you're extroverted. An extrovert is a person who is outgoing or, if you listen to psychology, a person who is concerned with objective things and external influences, and that didn't seem like the type of thing Lilith would be.

I hope this clears up my choices for you, and... Well, honestly, it's a shame that those two words from her information have been bothering you this entire time.
