She's a cold bitch because she had a hard life growing up. The end.
Can anyone tell me anything about Lightning? I've never played FFXIII so I don't know anything about her. What is she like (personality, character traits, etc) and what's her background story pretty much. All I know is that she's like a female version of Cloud? (might be wrong)
The reason I'm curious is because I'm interested in potentially writing a story in the future using her character.
Thanks.

You want to write a story using her character, but have never played the game in which she is a character?
First of all, how do you know you want to use her character, if you've never seen her character?
Second, that's plagiarism and is unimaginative.
Well, it's not like there's an issue with doing that for fun. Not at all. But personally, if I were to write a story, I'd get more enjoyment from creating my own characters.
But I still find it odd that you want to emulate something you have never seen the original of.
She is a soldier, so she leaves her emotions out of the battlefield. She may seem cold and calculating, but this is because she rationalizes each situation before making a decision. If things are not going as planned or if there are unexpected snags within the group, she is not above leaving people behind, since she is all about finding a way to survive after the l'cie incident. I think since she joined the military at a young age and the lack of peers after joining, she has a difficult time relating and communicating to others, which is evidenced by her slapping a couple of teammates, and by her sister keeping her l'cie brand a secret from Lightning out of fear of what she would think. Other than that, I think she's pretty direct in her motives, once she makes a decision she sticks with it.
Regarding her friends, though she may be a tough bitch, she really is like the concerned mother of the group and will do whaterver it takes to protect them. She keeps a strong front to keep her team's morale up, but she does admit moments of weakness at times (Snow/Lightning scene right before Taejin's tower comes to mind).
From anyone else who played, did I cover most of the basics? Anything I should of added?

I know this may sound a little off kilter to what you are asking for but even if you don't have the game you can always youtube clips of her and make up your own perspective on how you think she is.
This way you don't have to use other peoples opinions on the issue, you can use your own.
Then again, Rocky could be spot on with his interpretation of the character, I myself have yet to play XIII.

Crao Porr Cock8! Need I say more!?My awards:
Actually, it was a pretty good idea. I was watching a FFXIII walkthrough on YouTube (the person pretty much had everything including cutscenes) so it was like I was experiencing the game without even playing it.
I still appreciate the help though; I guess I just wanted multiple opinions on the subject.
HOW CAN YOU WRITE SEXY FANFIC IF YOU DONT KNOW A CHARACTER'S MOTIVATION FOR BONING?
This is very important to me as I need good character motivations when I jerk off to fanfic.
Let's go into the "archives" in "Washington D.C." and find out how people "masturbated" in the "roaring 20's."
Crao Porr Cock8. Bitch.
