At heart she is a kind and caring person, taking care of her grandfather, and putting in effort to help people around her, even at a detriment to herself. However, she is toughened by her experiences, and so can be manipulative and cunning in order to help herself survive.

Pressia, about to turn 16, lives in an old, burned out barbershop with her grandfather, Ozwald Belze, and her pet cicada, Freedle. She scavenges for scrap metal in order to make toys such as butterflies, which she uses to barter with for food.
