===Personality Description===
===Personality Description===
Deeply patrician in both her tastes and her approach to life, Alicia Ballentyne bears all the hall marks of a woman of her education and social class. A naturally quiet individual Ballentyne exudes quiet efficiency and competence, which shows through in her ability to take the lead in medication situations. In other scenarios she has a tendency to blend into the background and spectator. She is highly intelligent and possesses a great confidence in her own abilities as a doctor and scientist.
Ethically Ballentyne is a pragmatist and can be surprisingly self-interested for a doctor. She is very unreflective in her thinking, not so much through lack of capacity, but more by natural disposition. Her line of thinking tends to be: ‘X is correct because I say it is’ rather than ‘X is correct and I noticed it is.’
Most behaviours, particularly obvious emotional outbursts, seem to be quite controlled and geared to achieving specific short and long-term outcomes, she is perhaps somewhat manipulative in a passive way. When unimpressed or disinterested Alicia tends to assume an impassive facial expression and has yet to be bested in a staring contest. Her sense of humour is very dry and ironic, it can border on the cruel although she is usually quite restrained in her use of it and her polite manners usually take the edge off her barbs.
