Life was spent mostly on studying plants and Grass pokemon in the safety of her family's estate, as well as meeting with various important individuals in social gatherings that were mostly dull and uninteresting. She felt her environment at the estate very stifling and did not offer her much chance at growing, and jumped at the chance of signing up when word of a new Colony being founded was looking for men and women to help set it up.<br/><br/>Her parents were surprisingly fine with her decision, allowing the girl to get a firsthand experience at life outside the confines of the estate. With necessities for a life in the frontier packed in a few luggage together with the basic tools for study of plants, Haruka was off into life without any idea of what to expect save for freedom from doting eyes.<br/><br/>Haruka enjoys spending time under the sun as well as dips in fresh water. She is also skilled at making sketches of still life from her experience drawing various plants and pokemon, and has done illustrations to help with her parents' works. She dresses in a manner similar to a Liligant in the hopes people would think of her as a mature woman. Haruka has been taught that one should always help others in need, but ends up getting roped into situation that end up outside of her expectations. She has a tendency to be a little air-headed, and is slow when it comes to matters most people know.<br/><br/>Haruka is cautious of approaching Pokemon individuals possessing the types Fire, Flying, Poison, Ice, and Bug, but would be able to get over this caution if she knows them better. She steers well away from Bellsprouts and their kin, due to what she simply calls The Bellsprout Incident. She also tends to shed a good amount of Stun Spore in her immediate vicinity when she gets too agitated.
