Character Sheet for Lisbeth Barlow
Character Description
Lisbeth is positively crippled by OCD. Her love for order and obedience can instantly rub people the wrong way but in a way she's as much a victim as the people she orders around. She finds it very difficult to cope with the chaotic nature of everyday life and copes by ordering people to do as she asks. she's the patron of the orphanage and despite having a rough start to life has found herself in a very comfortable role in life. She loves her family but doesn't really show it outwardly and expects others to be as reserved with their emotions as her. She can be a real control freak but she does get things done even if she has to do it herself. To be honest she's confused by her own thoughts and feeling as much as anyone else and tries to do right but her condition is often crippling at best.
Personality
Lisbeth is a no nonsense sort of person with a busy attitude. She's ruthlessly efficient in the workplace and expects everything else to be just as orderly. She often bosses others around and she has a stern temper when order is not followed. She's not a very loving sort of person and it can be difficult to see any humanity in her but deep down she does care about her family even if it comes out in strange ways. She's very intelligent and hard working but intolerant of others who don't match her in this respect. She believes everything has a set place, even loved ones, and is a strict follower of rules and authority. Her idea of fun tends to be very restricted and others would call it boring and if you wanna see her cry then just make a chaotic mess. Vlad is her rock and helps her cope with her OCD and Timmy breaks the mold sometimes and breaks her out of her shell. As much as others suffer from her strict behavior so does she and she's a lot more unstable than she lets on.

Lisbeth has been the patron of the orphanage ever since it opened its doors. She may have a hard exterior but she's dedicated to looking after the children there. She met Vladimir at a fund raising party and the two of them got along very well. After meeting up a few times they decided to date and soon found it going a lot further than just protocol. Lisbeth's mother didn't approve but Lizzy didn't give a hoot for that old bag and married Vlad anyway against her wishes.
