Lorilai is a main supporting character who comes in during Season 2. She is the emotional and moral center of the group, often acting as the glue that holds everyone together during conflict. While she is more emotionally driven, her compassion and deep intuition help navigate delicate situations, often seeing pain or tension before others notice. She tends to be the peacemaker, using empathy to connect with others and resolve disputes.

She shares a strong dynamic with Noel, who is more logic-focused and stoic. Together, they represent the duality of head and heart: Noel ensures the group stays on the right path, while Lorilai ensures no one is emotionally left behind.

She may come across as fragile, but she's incredibly emotionally resilient and willing to stand up for others, especially if she believes someone is being mistreated.

Friendships:

• Noel Parsons – Intellectual opposite but emotional equal. Deep mutual respect.

• Alejandra Simons – Treats her like a little sister. Protective and loving.

• Coraline Johnson / “Angry Student” – Helped her through a vulnerable moment in the past, forming a subtle but important bond.

• Ember Owens – Though their personalities clash at first, they grow close over shared vulnerabilities.

Family:

• Mother: A decent, sometimes distant relationship. They clash in values but love each other.

• Younger Sisters (2): Extremely close. Lorilai is like a second mom to them, always protective and nurturing.

Enemies:

• Anyone who mocks or dismisses emotional expression

• Characters who manipulate others' feelings for personal gain

• A Season 2 antagonist who emotionally gaslights or deceives the group (TBD)

Voice Pitch: Medium-High vocal pitch. Should resemble the soft, sweet, and innocent voice often heard in anime – think a calm, soothing tone that can shift into emotional intensity when needed (e.g., voices like Tohru Honda from Fruits Basket or Madoka from Madoka Magica).
