General Summary:

As the heir to her family's lucrative potion company, Loraine has spent her life conforming to her parents strict standards. She has built herself into the perfect golden child, which is reflected in her signature spell, "Golden Mirror." At NRC she takes her studies very seriously. Though her dedication alienates her from her more lax classmates, she refuses to relax. Her parents have contacts within the school who report back to them her behavior, friends, and reputation. Slipping up means incurring their wrath.

She was very creative as a child and loved theatre, music, and especially art. However, her parents thought that it was a waste of time and forced her into more business focused hobbies as she grew up. At NRC she thinks she finally has the opportunity to be herself outside of her parents' watchful eyes, but she soon learns that is not the case. Still, being in the same dorm as the beautiful Vil inspires her to start drawing again, even if its only in the safety of isolation.

Relationship with Rook:

Loraine first gained Rook's attention when he saw her drawing Vil. Loraine usually keeps such tight control on her behavior that not even Rook knew she could draw, a skill she had vocally looked down on in the past.

Rook wants to know why she disregards the arts when it appears she herself can draw. He starts interacting with her on a regular basis, much to her annoyance. It takes a while but she slowly starts letting her guard down.

They become unlikely friends and eventually something more. But its still a rough friendship in the beginning since Loraine tries to maintain her parents standards while Rook wants her to break out of them and discover herself. Likewise, Loraine has spent enough time around her parents' colleagues to recognize Rook's misdirection when it comes to his personal life, and Rook isn't used to someone actually pushing him for his personal life.

Signature Spell:

When she casts Golden Mirror on someone, it transports Loraine to a pocket dimension outside of time. In this dimension, she see's illusions of herself as the person's ideal version of herself. When she casts it on her parents, she sees illusions of herself running the business, pursuing studious hobbies such as alchemy, and looking professional with no self-expression.

While the inspiration for this is from "What Else Can I Do?" ('I make perfect, practiced poses'), the scene where Elsa dies in Frozen 2 is a much better reference for what it looks like. Just instead of being made out of snow, the illusions of Loraine look real, just slightly transparent.
