[circumitus]

✘ How intelligent is this character? Is she book-smart or street-smart?

✘ Does she think on her feet, or does she need time to deliberate?

✘ Describe the character's thought process. Is she more logical, or more intuitive? Idealistic or practical?

✘ What kind of education has the character had?

✘ What are her areas of expertise? What, if anything, is she interested in learning more about?

✘ Is she an introvert or an extrovert?

✘ Describe the character's temperament. Is she even-tempered or does she have mood swings? Cheerful or melancholy? Laid-back or driven?
→ Amazingly enough, she's a bit laid back. Rey can't even hold a grudge. At all. It depends on what they've done, but for the average person she can pretty much let the shit they do slide. It's not so much that she DOESN'T CARE, but it's just that she doesn't waste any time or energy on the effort that it takes to carry out long-term grudges against someone. But again, it depends.

✘ How does she respond to new people or situations? Is she suspicious, relaxed, timid, enthusiastic?

✘ Is she more likely to act, or to react?

✘ Which is her default: fight or flight?

✘ Describe the character's sense of humor. Does she appreciate jokes? Puns? Gallows humor? Bathroom humor? Pranks?

✘ Does the character have any diagnosable mental disorders? If yes, how does she deal with them?

✘ What moments in this character's life have defined her as a person?

✘ What does she fear?

✘ What are her hopes or aspirations?

✘ What is something she doesn't want anyone to find out about her?

✘ Does she cry?
→ Yes. Surprisingly. She's only really cried once, and that was in canon after she watched the final aria to Dido And Aeneas.
She also cries when a certain someone is about to die. Obviously she's not really one for breaking out the waterworks, though she is more of a "quiet sobbing" type than SNOT AND TEARS EVERYWHERE.
