Both her social and practical intelligence; managed to see through Roland's acts, and that they were in order for him to ascend through the social food chain

Weakness - Lack of trust
Struggles to trust Connor and Lev even more so, due to her time in StaHo where she was told she was good and valued, only for her to later be sent for unwinding.]]> 2022-09-01 01:30:46 UTC https://padlet.com/joanne_orr/uboss9cbr0t6/wish/2278543991 https://padlet.com/joanne_orr/uboss9cbr0t6/wish/2278545519 Strength.

"What can I say. I'm an artist- it's like playing the piano; you just have to know which keys to strike in people" pg55

Weakness: She can't trust others. This is because of her past at stay ho. Having to fend for herself ever since she was born pushes her away from trusting people. ]]> 2022-09-01 01:31:54 UTC https://padlet.com/joanne_orr/uboss9cbr0t6/wish/2278545568 https://padlet.com/joanne_orr/uboss9cbr0t6/wish/2278555516 Strength:
Her ability to adapt under pressure. When they were on the run, Risa put her mind into thinking and took over the situation, she knocked on stranger's door to request food and resources for the runaway group.

Weakness:
She doesn't have much hope. After she found out that she's going to be an unwind, she fell down in the hole of hopelessness. Because she's always been a realist, she won't divert herself to believe in hope when there's none and has always been prepared for the worst. Later on the book on page 183, the quote "Only now does Risa allow herself the luxury of hope" shows that Risa didn't expect that she would survive until then.]]> 2022-09-01 01:39:47 UTC https://padlet.com/joanne_orr/uboss9cbr0t6/wish/2278555516 https://padlet.com/joanne_orr/uboss9cbr0t6/wish/2278559517 Briarna, Bailey, Charlotte, Cadence, Isabella

Weakness-
At the start of the novel, Risa is too closed off with her personality and emotions. Although we can see Risa is protecting herself due to her upbringing in the state home, if Risa allowed others in she would be able to have a purpose, a sense of belonging and a sense of community. this is shown by the quote- "touch me again and your arm gets ripped off"

Strength- 
Risa has an impeccable sense of awareness, her ability to read a situation and act responsively and selflessly towards a situation helps keep everyone safe. this makes her a good decision maker. this is demonstrated by this quote- "Risa has been right about a lot of thins- her clarity of thought has saved them more than once- her take on Roland's power structure is right on target."]]> 2022-09-01 01:43:02 UTC https://padlet.com/joanne_orr/uboss9cbr0t6/wish/2278559517
