Character Information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dresden_Files_characters#Molly_Carpenter

Personality: Molly is -- a bit of an oddball, to say the least. She's a snarky ex-goth (mostly) girl who grew up in a seriously Catholic family. As such, she is extremely devoted to her family -- father, mother, and all six brothers and sisters. Family, friends, and their safety are all very important to her. She will help them in any way she can, even if it means turning to not-exactly legal forms of magic to do so. Sure, she may make sarcastic comments and the like, she learned from one of the best, but she will always be there for someone she cares about, in spite of danger, imminent death, or possible insanity. She's a fighter, and a tenacious one.

Underneath that snarky, multi-colored goth exterior, however, beats the heart of someone who is secretly a giant nerd. It's probably part of the reason why she and Harry get along so well. We are privy to the inner sanctum of her mind at one point in the novels, and it is, apparently, just like the main deck of the Starship Enterprise, except populated with Mollys dressed as Star Trek characters -- yes, the cheesy 1960s versions. This is a girl who calls her teacher Mister Miyagi and Yoda, among other things. She has a good sense of humor, though she usually puts it into use making dry comments at everything and everyone around her, and is reasonably willing to go along with whatever crazy plan Harry may have about something or another. She is desperately in love with Harry, her teacher, and he knows, but tries to pretend that doesn't exist. Her tendency to love so deeply makes her susceptible to doing stupid things like playing with people’s brains (usually unintentionally). It also makes for great guilt complexes, when things get messed up enough.

That's where recent events come in! Due to happenings covered in the setting section, Molly has recently recovered from having a very shaky grip on sanity, with a side of awesome guilt complex. Harry’s death kind of threw her into a tailspin where she was running around Chicago, doing not-entirely-ethical things like using illusions to mess with people’s minds. She has improved, somewhat, with Harry’s return, given time and not having the burden of being the sole protector of Chicago on her shoulders. The whole ‘suddenly becoming the Winter Lady’ thing has not really helped her feeling like she’s not quite sane; she was well acquainted with the doings of the last Winter Lady.. She tries to hide her uncertainty, and tends to be much more lucid around people she is close to, these days. Now that Harry’s back she doesn’t quite feel the need to distance herself, as she did before, but she still feels she has to keep a wide berth from her family. It’s just safer that way, for everyone, really. She’s still very uncertain about what to do with her newfound position, considering this all just happened very recently.
