personality
compassionate;
Anna is a kind soul who can get along with and find the good in just about anyone. She genuinely cares for nearly every being that she meets.
adaptable;
Anna has a knack for being able to be whoever or whatever she needs to be to get through any given situation.
silver-tongued;
Anna has a way with words. Usually only those close to her will hear it, as when she meets new people she tends to stutter nervously- but even then, she has her moments.
cheery;
Anna has dark moments just like everyone else- but for the most part, she managed to remain remarkably cheery and optimistic about life.
loyal;
Anna is extremely loyal to those who she considers friends- which, let's face it, is more than actually deserve to be called such. She'd go to the ends of the earth for a person she just met, if they did so much as smiled at her.
motivated;
Anna can be very well motivated, but only if she believes the cause is just.
timid;
Anna is terribly shy and nervous when it comes to new people and new situations.
insecure;
Anna does not have an overabundance of confidence. Quite the opposite, actually, she is always doubting herself and her abilities.
gullible;
Anna is very easily manipulated and can't tell a liar from a saint.
emotional;
Anna is over-sensitive and over-emotional, and this will often get in the way of logical, critical thinking and decision-making. She even has a temper, though she is usually good at keeping it in check.
dependent;
Anna depends on others way too much, and one of her greatest fears is of ending up alone. This makes her very clingy.
weak;
More of a physical trait that a personality trait- Anna is quite wimpy. Arms like noodles.
history
then;
Anna grew up in a very mixed family; her mother, father, step mother, step father, all have been married more than once, with children from each marriage. Anna is the oldest of all of the children- the final tally of siblings comes to eight, and she loves each and every one with her whole heart.
She was raised in Hespera, mostly by her mother and step-father, who were both hardworking but very poor. Despite this, she considers her childhood to have been full and happy, and she enjoyed most all of her time spent with her mother, step-father, five siblings and the family Pokemon (Purugly and Granbull) all under one (small) roof.
Anna's benevolence and compassion developed early, and did not go unnoticed by anyone; however, she never seemed to have much motivation. She cared deeply about those around her, but wasn't sure how to put herself to good use.
now;
When the Scourge hit, devastating though it was, Anna finally found her purpose. She and her family cared for the refugees from the overridden towns. When the panic and mayhem had mostly subsided, her step-father suggested that she apply for Eos.
Anna was hesitant- did she really want to leave everything that she had ever known? She pushed the thought aside at first, but the spark of that idea quickly caught and turned into a wildfire. She was scared, yes- terrified, in fact- but she suddenly knew what the next step was for her.
