Meme!

So there are these two memes going around and I like them both, but for the moment I'm gonna just do one at a time. Seen several places:

Pick a character I've written or roleplayed, and I will give you the top five ideas/concepts/other I keep in mind while writing that character that I believe are essential to depicting them accurately. This includes both original characters and characters about whom I write fanfic.

Any character I've ever written is fair game, but I reserve the right to say "eh, I got nothin'" if I feel I don't really have that firm a grasp of them. A list of my RP characters follows below the cut.

Milliways:
byhisbootstraps William "Bootstrap Bill" Turner (Pirates of the Caribbean)
forewarned_is Kali (Supernatural)
ladyfirestarter Charlie McGee (Firestarter)
simon_doctor Simon Tam (Firefly / Serenity)
stilljustandrew Andrew Wells (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
toxic_perfume Cavilo (Vorkosigan Saga)
veryvorkosigan Cordelia Naismith Vorkosigan(Vorkosigan Saga)

Other:
no_thief Kaya (OC)
nonsomniac Dee Elliot (OC, Heroesverse)
porcupineliz Liz Whitaker (OC, Fireflyverse / orig universe)
Rapunzel (OC, fairytale-based)
Topher Brink (Dollhouse)

Ahahahaha.

1) This is the one I have to keep reminding myself of: Kali just. doesn't. care. about humans for the most part. There are exceptions, but as a rule the death or pain of humans doesn't bother her.

2) She does, however, have a soft spot for infants and small children.

3) Kali kind of despises Western civilization in general and Christianity in particular. (Why does she live in America? Hard to say.)

4) The only real problem Kali has with Hunters is that they have a problem with her kind. She doesn't object to them exorcising ghosts and demons, or slaying vampires -- but they see gods as just another old world monster, and the rightful due of sacrifice as no different from a ghoul feeding on the living. That's intolerable.

5) Kali can manifest her other two arms at will. Generally she doesn't except in combat.
