    Facts:
    *Lisa was created in 2005 as a character for a forum-based RPG.
    *The concept of Lisa was to create a wealthy, genius-level female
    character but still with some feminine traits. I also wanted her to
    have interests that are a bit out there and unexpected of a typical
    Pokemon trainer.
    *Lisa's first name comes from Lisa Simpson, my favorite character at
    the time of her creation (2005). Soon after though, I got into anime
    and slowly stopped watching The Simpsons altogether.
    *Lisa's last name comes from the Northwoods Mall in North Charleston,
    South Carolina. I have never personally been to this mall, but naming
    her something like "Lisa Concord Mills" wouldn't make much sense xD

    *Lisa's design is based heavily off Leaf from FR/LG, though with
    unique clothing.
    *Lisa's original design had her wear a green T-shirt under her dress,
    like a jumper-style dress, because it was easier for me to recolor
    the Leaf sprite with that outfit. It has since evolved into Lisa
    wearing a green cardigan-like jacket over her dress.
    *Lisa's trademark blue floral dress has also evolved, gaining lace
    trim, a white stripe on the bottom, and a purple ribbon sash.
    *Lisa almost always wears either skirts or dresses with some type of
    tight-fitting legwear, either leggings or pantyhose. She prefers
    white pantyhose or black lace leggings, though she has been known to
    wear other colors.

    *She is either 15 years old or was born in 1991, depending on who you
    ask. Her original fan fiction story took place in fall of 2006,
    making her 15 years old with a birth date in 1991 at that time.
    *After her Pokemon journey, she bought a house in the Baxter Village
    subdivision in Fort Mill, SC which she officially considers her
    permanent residence. Previously, she had lived with her parents in
    Anderson.
    *Despite the above, she actually spends more time at school, which is
    in a major region with Pokemon.
    *Currently, Lisa has no romantic interests. Therefore I ask that you
    don't try to "ship" her with anyone, particularly the male
    protagonists of the Pokemon games and anime... she'd reject the whole
    lot of 'em xD

    D'aww, this list brings back a lot of memories from reading your fic. Personally, I don't go this detailed with my characters, so I admire the effort! (And I've always been interested in how you came up with her character.)
