Personality: Rorolina, referred to as Rorona by her friends, is a fairly good-natured, yet, ditzy, alchemist in training, who ends up running the workshop she helps Astrid maintain when the kingdom threatens to close it down. Having been working under Astrid so as to pay the senior alchemist back for the medicine she gave Rorona's parents when they fell ill, when Rorona was small, she's more or less been subject to having to do a lot of things for the older woman, including going to answer the summons at the castle for her, because Astrid can't be bothered to go herself. As Rorona doesn't want the workshop to close, or be exiled, as she still has her debt to pay off (and Astrid isn't about to let her go home that easily), the workshop ends up being run in Rorona's name, changing to 'Atelier Rorona', when Astrid decides to leave it in the girl's care.
Given her young age, and her nervousness at running the workshop on her own, Rorona tends to panic easily sometimes, or ramble on accidentally about things. This doesn't necessarily have to be about the workshop, though, but could be about a remark someone made, as Rorona... pretty much gets flustered pretty easily. She also tends to be picked on by her best friend, Cordelia, as well as pretty much half of the cast. Even one of Lionela's puppets, Horohoro, pokes fun at Rorona sometimes.
Rorona, does, however, care for people, and wants to help out. Even if this usually turns into her being dragged into crazy schemes, or even if she initially complains every now and then, generally, if a friend of hers needs help with something, she'll do her best to assist. Of course, there are times where she'll object outright, such as when Pamela wants Rorona's help finding something 'fun' to do.
Despite her ditziness, Rorona tends to be fairly cheerful, though despairs all the same at times, like having to run the workshop on her own, or having to go outside town to hunt alchemy ingredients. She also tends to complain at times to others about Astrid, wishing she had a different master, or at least someone not as lazy as her. Of course, Rorona won't say stuff like this to Astrid's face, though she'll sometimes protest her master's treatment all the same.
She also likes giving everyone nicknames. Everyone. Unless your name is too short.
Abilities: Rorona is an alchemist, or at least an apprentice to one, and thus knows alchemy, which, in the Atelier series, is basically item synthesis.
She also has a set of non-elemental magic skills that are weapon-bound; Angel Shot and Ether Light are known by default, but equipping different staffs give her expansions upon those skills.
Also, with the help of Hom, she knows a skill called Lethal Bomb, which...is just pressing a big button that drops a big basket that explodes onto the enemy.
