Personality[]
Dorothy is rather reserved. She often comes off as shy and nervous and has trouble thinking of what to say to people. She also has the odd tendency to talk to herself, as can be seen in her Support Conversations with Sin. She also tends to doubt herself, in her abilities and intelligence.
Dorothy is also greatly devoted to the St. Elimine Church, which is why she agreed to escort Saul. In her Support Conversations with Bishop Yoder she will express an overwhelming desire to want to be able to use healing staves to help heal people. She asks Yoder why it is that no matter how hard she prays she cannot use staves. Yoder replies to her questions with a story involving Saint Elimine, an Eagle, and an Owl, the basis of the story being that everyone has different skills that they can use to contribute and help others with.
Dorothy also has problems with being feminine. In her Support Conversations with Clarine, Clarine first approaches her exclaiming: "Why are you dressing yourself in men's clothes?". Clarine then spends a considerable amount of time trying to train Dorothy to be 'a lady' by teaching her etiquette and whatnot. However, Dorothy eventually decides that she just is not good at any of it and that she should give up, but Clarine suggests that the biggest thing Dorothy must fix is her confidence, and that a lady must be confident. In the process, the two become friends.
Dorothy also takes her obligation to guard Saul very seriously. She also constantly pesters him about how he tends to flirt with women. In their Support Conversations, she does just that and Saul in turn eventually provides 'a good excuse' as she had said he should have. In the final conversation however, Saul ends up having to flee after aggravating Dorothy thoroughly.

Subjective: The following part of this article is based upon the editor's personal experiences and opinions, and therefore may not be applicable for all readers.
Dorothy can see use during chapter 7 if using trade chains between her, Wolt and Sue with Bows to kill the two Wyvern Riders, but other than that, and her free deployment in chapter 6, there is little time she will see use unless the player wants to use her.
Her promotion bonuses are quite useful, but her low level in conjunction with the fact that she still cannot counter at 1 range and her infantry movement leave her with little redeeming her. Also, she competes with Sue and Shin for the first two Orion's Bolts, and they get both Swords and have higher movement upon promoting. Dorothy's growth rates are decent, but it will take quite a long time to salvage her low bases with them.

Devoted Archer Dorothy
Dorothy is a faithful servant of the Elimine Church who lives in the kingdom of Etruria in Elibe. She's an expert sharpshooter who was chosen to serve as Saul's bodyguard on his journey!
Eventually, Dorothy and Saul both joined the Lycian League's army. There, she got some tips from her new allies as she further perfected her skills with a bow!
Dorothy is a very serious person, so it concerns her that Saul goes missing whenever a woman catches his eye!
