Liborrete's Personality

Habits

While Journeying

When acting as a messenger, she practices what she's been asked to say for the entire journey. She mumbles the message under her breath over and over so she can repeat it exactly as ordered. Overall, she is an attentive listener and she retains information well.

She takes excellent care of her weapons and animal companions. Every night, she cleans and sharpens her sword. Every morning, she grooms her chocobos and sticks the stray feathers in her hair. It's a little ritual she has to feel their support even when they're apart.

She has a terrible sense of direction and needs to keep her map out at all times, even when navigating places she has been before. Rather than ask for help, she'll just wander around lost until she stumbles onto her destination.

She gets so focused on her quests that she forgets to eat and sleep. Anyone else would have dropped dead by now. Probably, it is Hydaelyn's blessing sustaining her. She does drink a lot of water, though, and will stop at clear streams to let her chocobo rest.

She is up at all hours of the day and night with no set schedule. Eventually, she gets so exhausted she nas no choice but to sit down under a tree or inside a cave to take a nap. She wakes up twelve hours later, totally disoriented.

She frequently has nightmares. Heavensward spoilers: When Haurchefant dies, she relives the moment every night. After that, rather than coincidentally deprioritising her needs, she intentionally avoids sleeping.

Preferences

Food

When she remembers to eat or is offered food, she always cleans her plate. She won't leave a single crumb behind! Haurchefant finds it endearing how she literally licks her plate, but asks her to stop when dining with nobles.

She's not picky at all. She'll eat whatever you put in front of her, even if it's yucky. However, her favourite foods are warm, filling, and easy to eat. She really loves soup and gruel. Her go-to recipe is basically "everything stew," where she boils whatever she can hunt and gather in one pot.

While she is a decent culinarian, she prefers to eat others' cooking. She greatly enjoyed everything Medgustl made at Camp Dragonhead. That's where Haurchefant taught her to dip bread in her stew. It absolutely blew her mind!

She likes plain, mild, straightforward sweets. Haurchefant learns this by feeding her assortments of desserts just after her arrival in Foundation.

Environment

She prefers sunny days with puffy white clouds that aren't too windy. Wind, rain, and too much cloud cover makes it harder for her to navigate. Her map gets wet or blows around, or she can't see the stars... She associates rainy days with frustrations while travelling, and may get a bit moody about bad weather even if she's indoors.

Ironically, she loves snow, despite the fact that it's even worse for travel than rain. One winter, she was nearly buried in a Coerthan blizzard. She would have died if Haurchefant hadn't rushed into the storm to rescue her. Or, well, a normal person would have died. Someone like Liborette would just be... uncomfortable. This one event symbolises all the sacrifices Haurchefant made in the name of her comfort, proving she is someone worth caring for. When she sees snow, she thinks of this, of him, and feels a warm ache in her chest.
