She often can't hold a steady conversation, but what she speaks about, she seems to consider deeply, even if it's a meaningless conversation. Although, when something or someone catches her interest, she considers them hers. As her toy to drag around and control. She doesn’t to this personally, but more like she doesn't consider it to be impolite or controlling.

  Description of home, home life, and economic status: Her family was never poor, but never wealthy they were always somewhere in the middle. Her homes usually were single floor houses, but that wasn't really the result of finances. That was just how her family liked it. Everyone got along well, but her brother has moved out to go to college, and comes home often. Her parents still work, and aren't home all of the time. Her father is usually the one home, since her mother's schedule is based off of her client's needs.
  
  Brief family history:
  
  Most painful experiences in their past: At the age of nine, she ran away from home. Not really really as a result of wanting to leave, but more because she was confused. She started puberty a bit early, so she was confused of who she was as a a person. She questioned herself, who she was. During her four days away from home, living in the streets and parks, she lost herself, and has never been able to recover it. The assults and rapes damaged her mind, and she struggles to try to repair it. She hasn't even told her family what happened to her on the streets.
  
  Character’s goals: She strives for her to play exactly what she sees in her mind, which she has never been able to do before, and to play her father's piano piece just as it was written to be played as.
  
  Character’s motivation: She craves to find herself.
  
  Character’s conflict: Due to her lack of a steady motivation, and since her true goal is the same as her motivation, she's unable to make progress.
  
  Summarize character’s Fatal Flaw: She refuses to admit that she can never play exactly what she intends, what she feels, and that the music can only be interpreted as what others feel. She can't admit that it will never be good enough for her.
