Personality: Anne Shirley is a girl of great emotional extremes; mostly, this is because she feels things rather intensely. When she first arrives in Avonlea at the age of eleven, her joy and elation at finally finding a home bubbles over as she latches onto Matthew Cuthbert and tell him how wonderful it will be to "live with you and belong to you". Just as dramatically, she falls into the "depths of despair" upon learning that the Cuthberts had originally asked for a male orphan to help around the farm and that her arrival was a mistake. In keeping with this behaviour, there is rarely a middle ground with Anne. Things are either the very, very best or the very, very worst. A great motivator for this kind of behaviour comes from her love of the fictional. An avid reader, she is keen to parrot back the kinds of dramatic phrasing she experiences through literature. This also means that she (mistakenly) expects a certain amount of parallelism between fiction and reality that simply does exist. For this reason, she tends to "supplement"

Despite her impulsive annoyances, Anne proves to be a very loyal ally once she approves of someone. She is forever in search of more "kindred spirits" -- which is what she calls those who become her closer friends -- and while her tastes are not exactly discerning, she at least demands a sense of courtesy and camaraderie from those she befriends. From planning picnics to hosting tea parties, she does love a social event and will love them all the more if she can be surrounded by those she cares about. She becomes a loyal daughter-figure to Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert and as such she feels the their pains -- such as Matthew's death -- more keenly than tragedies that have befallen her long deceased biological family. Beyond a loyal ally, she can be a fierce competitor. Anne Shirley loves to win -- especially within academic competition -- and is not accustomed to losing, given that her usual peer sample is a rather small one-room school house of Avonlea kids; however, she finds a rival in Gilbert Blythe whose wit and popularity becomes

Strengths: PHYSICAL - Anne has been raised on a farm at the turn of the century in a rural Canadian province. As such, she exhibits the predictable benefits. She is in considerable shape, as she uses walking as her made method of transport combined with a healthy recreational life outside and around the village. Through out canon she proves to be in excellent physical health. MENTAL - Anne is incredibly smart for her peer group, being the one student in her year in all of Prince Edward Island to be awarded the Avery Scholarship ($250, for a full education at Queen's University). Despite the fact that she turns this scholarship down, Anne continues her studies in order to keep her mind sharp. EMOTIONAL - She has a very forceful but genuine optimism for life's larger tragedies. She is exceptionally up-beat for a girl who has been bandied around from ill-equipped guardian to ill-equipped guardian for most of her life. This is evidenced by her ability to look ahead with hope to her placement with the Cuthberts and be truly joyous to meet
