I think the obvious ones all run along the lines of shy and timid, though she is also trusting/trustworthy, loyal, dedicated, and appreciative. She also seems to enjoy being involved in many camp activities, at times embracing them eagerly - as though she's actively trying to fit in, and maybe forcing herself into things she wouldn't have tried back home.
So on the one hand, she's shy and maybe a little lonely but she seems to really want to belong so she surpasses those elements. On the other hand, she seems to have relaxed into the idea that people want to help her because she comes off as meek and I don't know if it's intentional or not (or if I've simply missed something - XD) but it's almost as though she's taking advantage of this. I think I mentioned as much in Fllay's relationship meme though, so this is a little redundant. :)
Hah. Between yourself and Fllay, you've hit the things that I'm worried that isn't coming across. :D What I'm trying to do with Kisa is have her consciously think "These people need to be helped and protected" and go out of her way to make sure that her friends are safe. She doesn't however, think to do it for herself. And so, when it's someone else that's getting bullied, she'll stand up for them, because as she's observed at camp, standing up to bullies means that they stand down. However, outside of that, she's not entirely sure what she's supposed to do, and she's trying very, very hard to make a good impression so that they don't reject her. Additionally, when someone turns on her, she backs down pretty quickly, realising that they are just like the people at home and that they don't follow the "Law of Camp".
Just as a question, is that coming across at all? 'Cause I know that it's something I've been worried about. Excuse the lack of sense, work stress has conspired to give me a headache that feels suspiciously like
