|quote=When I was a girl, I wanted to be an adventurer. Or go on one. I had a grand dream that out there was everything I wanted. Everything I dreamed of. I suppose that’s childish to you. Today? I would have been happy to grow old without adventure. I feel old now. Somehow, I became a mother. I know I didn’t give birth to [[Mrsha/Gallery|her]], but I would never be anything else. I made great friends. I did something important, more important than my old life.

Since childhood, Lyonette was lazy, spoiled, and rude. She had a sense of entitlement, expecting special treatment by way of her royal status, and had a habit of calling everyone "peon." She was also prejudiced against non-Humans, referring to [[Drakes]] and [[Gnolls]] as "filthy lizards and furry half-breeds" respectively,<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 1.63}}</ref> though she was sympathetic towards the recently orphaned [[Mrsha du Marquin|Mrsha]].<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 2.42}}</ref> 

Having felt useless in her home nation to [[Calanfer]], with her [Princess] class being stuck at Level 5, she ran away to Izril. After being "hired" by [[Erin Solstice|Erin]] (AKA rescued from freezing to death after being exiled for theft and arson), Lyonette was horrified when she gained the [Barmaid] [[Classes|class]] - claiming it to be a "peasant class"- and displayed disgust at the idea of performing menial tasks and serving commoners. However, when Erin was stranded in [[Celum]], Lyonette was left alone in the inn. Facing starvation and loneliness, she changed her attitude for the better, earning coin by feeding Pawn and the [[Painted Antinium]], trying to make amends for the [[Krshia Silverfang|people she hurt]], and finding companionship with Mrsha. By the time of Erin's return, Lyonette became a better person, finding value in work and levelling in her classes.

Lyonette is content in her life in The Wandering Inn, being responsible for managing the inn and staff, and being a mother to Mrsha.<ref>[[Chapter 5.24 L]]</ref> Although she temporarily lost her [Princess] class after no longer feeling like one due to her occupation, but regains the consolidated class [Worldly Princess] instead. Having felt useless for years, Lyonette's self-worth is tied to her helpfulness; amusingly, as the inn grew more successful and the staff more competent, she has grown more purposeless having less work to do.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.42 E}}</ref> She makes an effort to uphold the values of her class whenever she can, teaching Mrsha various Terandrian customs such as cursive and fashion. Lyonette can be prim and proper, displaying horror at the idea of showing skin at the beach, and telling Mrsha and [[Nanette Weishart|Nanette]] to avoid [[Xesci|a visiting [Prostitute]]].

Lyonette has shown great bravery and cleverness, such as single-handedly retrieving honey and bees from the cave of Ashfire Bees using smoke from Erin's [[Faerie Flowers|magical flowers]].<ref name=":1">[[Chapter 3.21 L]]</ref> Responsible for the inn's business and finances, Lyonette can be aggressive when it comes to prices and managing funds, and has been described as being [[Drakes|Drake]]-like in her enjoyment of making money. She is excellent at planning and organization, seen when she was able to coordinate multiple city-wide parties in [[Liscor]] and [[Invrisil]] in less than half a day with a budget of five thousand gold coins.<ref>{{VERef|Chapter 9.21}}</ref> She also excels at politics, having navigated the court scene in [[Oteslia]], and contending with high-level [Ladies] such as [[Magnolia Reinhart]] and [[Bethal Walchaís]].
