My main character probably wouldn't (unless she has some substantial plot armor), as she has a habit of following strange noises and other anomalies that she should probably be running away from, and she otherwise has a penchant for being passive when it comes to getting out of bad situations.
We’re at the peak of spooky season!

🚩: She has a habit of distancing herself from the people she loves, both figuratively and in the sense that she keeps leaving them to go to planets lightyears away.
🟩: She has a lot of compassion, even if she doesn't always show it outwardly. (She's trying her best, okay??)
