ACTIVE TIMES/PACE: I work early mornings in GMT-6; I tend to be active early afternoon, but I always read tags and can readily answer questions. Not super fast but if I need to focus somewhere I can!
BRACKETS/PROSE: Either is fine! I'm used to brackets by now though.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: N/A!

WARNINGS AND OPT-OUT
CONTENT WARNING: Lisa's somewhat-distant past involves bullying in her middle school days; her more recent affairs can involve parental neglect, homophobia directed at her, and occasional mood swings with rare deep spirals. She's capable of avoiding dangerous topics, but her mood tends to be somewhat brittle; handle with care.
OPT-OUT: Lisa is cagey about her past unless specifically engaged on it, but if you'd like to make sure it doesn't come up, or you'd like her to avoid other topics, please let me know in the comments below. All comments are screened. If you'd prefer not to work over comments or want to discuss further, please see other contact information above.

IN CHARACTER
PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Yes! She's happy to receive it and getting better about giving it. She has a girlfriend though...
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: In the Dream Sphere, assumed - go for it. Outside it, let's talk first; she's not much of a combatant. Weak to shots to her right torso in either case, although it's entirely a mental thing.
RELATIONSHIPS: Happily in a relationship with a nice young lady her own age! Strong tendency to be attracted to personality over physical appearance; likes specific people, not necessarily caring about gender. Easy-ish to befriend, but has a surface personality that's easy to get along with but can mask both her traumas and her desires; getting through that mask tends to make her more willing to share when she's having a bad time.
PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: No powers or special properties. Always anxious about something unless she's in the middle of an activity that requires her full attention, or is having a particularly good day. When she's spiraling, her despair is loud. Let me know if you need more specific information; ask about deeper dives.
MAGICAL INFORMATION: In the waking world, completely normal; possesses a Sandglass containing vaguely salmon-ish starsand that lets her move into the Dream Sphere and transform into Dreamer Rhodonite, who is very, very magical. Please see her info post for more information.
MEDICAL INFORMATION: Nothing in particular; not particularly fit, but working on it. Minor scarring on her hands and arms from burns, which are from cooking accidents, including a noticeable one on the back of her left hand. Rarely clutches her right torso when stressed; this is a psychosomatic response from damage that did not transfer to her waking body. Dark mental states bordering on depression are infrequent. Shows mild signs of dependency on her girlfriend.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Easily surprised and may react mildly violently. Reacts badly to sudden shocks to her worldview and risks spiraling. Strongly protective of her friends, and overprotective of her girlfriend; values the emotional and physical safety of others over herself, and may react badly if someone other than her is threatened around her. Has a minor trigger response to bullying, even if she's not involved. May have unexpected responses if told she's a good person or is popular. Scared of thunder.

OUT OF CHARACTER
BACKTAGGING: Yes! Warn me if I ought drop a thread though.
THREADHOPPING: Generally fine! Be prepared to poke me if I get lost.
FOURTHWALLING: Within her own game, no; she doesn't have any connection to her canon self, so the only thing you can fourth-wall is game conceits. Outside it, ask first.
NOT INTERESTED IN: Can't think of anything in particular? Ask if unsure.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
VISUAL: Below-average height (148cm/5'0"). Long brown hair, greenish-gray eyes, fair skin. Tends toward dresses and shorter skirts, and bright colors, including a number of things she's made herself. Wears her favorite, excessively fluffy red scarf, with a music note embroidered on the end, if it's even remotely in season. Sometimes carries a gig bag containing her ESP BTL bass guitar in fire red the same as her image color; often carries a two-tone canvas tote bag, undyed on top and in the same color as the starsand in her Sandglass, a dull reddish-pink, on the bottom third. That Sandglass is usually clipped to the side of whatever bag she is carrying, usually her tote if there's more than one. Light jewelry, usually understated earrings, a necklace, and a bangle or similar; light makeup, and can sometimes get away without it in a pinch.
AURAL: Voiced by Nakashima Yuki; please see this early Roselia story chapter for an example. This is also her singing voice; here's her canon song with Yukina Promise as an example, as she doesn't have any solo songs I can link to, where she trades vocals with Yukina. More generally, speaks brightly, tending toward simpler, modern words but fully capable of making herself sound smart if she needs to. Her voice carries well and it's easy to pick her out of a crowd. Harmonizes well. Hums when she's in a good mood, easily slips into teasing with people she's familiar with, and laughs brightly when amused; giggles when she's nervous.
OLFACTORY: A mature perfume, in a light floral scent; her shampoo is a fresh, clean scent, but it's usually drowned out by everything else. Butter, sugar and vanilla, especially around the holidays and at hanami; if she's badly frazzled, perhaps burnt hair or skin. Sometimes has the faint scent of another woman and will cheerfully refuse to care.
DEMEANOUR: Bright, cheery outer layer: happy to look out for people, and likes making friends and chatting, though she'll sometimes hide things if she wants to keep conversation light. Enjoys baking, particularly sweets, and knitting and sewing, more the former, and can be heard chattering about all of those. Prefers walking to public transit if she can help it. Prefers spaces with some noise, though not loud spaces. Carries her bass guitar more or less everywhere, and plays in her off-time, though she's conscious not to be too much of a distraction. Occasionally indulges in retail therapy; tends towards clothing or cooking ingredients. Once you get through her surface personality, Lisa is a little jumpier, a little more cautious to respond, and her mood can turn dark a lot more quickly, but she's also significantly more honest, perhaps to a fault. Slow to truly trust; overprotective of those she's let into her circle. Teasing, motherly (or sisterly as appropriate), and always looking out. Once she knows your birthday you will find baked goods on your doorstep even in the middle of a heatwave. Puts others' health and well-being over her own.
