Amy is a bright optimist, an attitude which was greatly encouraged by her father, especially after the loss of her mother when she was five. Amy was born in her parents' farmhouse, but grew up mostly in the city, when her father moved what remained of his family in favor of his daughter learning a respectable trade (potion-making, or chemistry, depending on the setting). She greatly resented the change in scenery at first, and would prefer to ditch her lessons whenever possible. She has a passion for singing and dancing, although she finds herself too shy to perform for anyone besides her closest friends, and she eventually gives in and completes her crafting lessons after she meets her quartet. Her goal then becomes to find her place in life, while helping the others loosen up and have some fun. She eventually begins dating, and marries Lars.
While she's extremely good at listening to others, and perceiving emotions, Amy isn't particularly skilled at communicating her own emotions, if they fall anywhere short of "Mostly Happy". She's faked many a smile in her life, and there are times when she hides away to mope, rather than telling anyone what's bothering her. This behavior has lead to a few arguments between herself and her father, but for the most part, she manages to handle herself. She just wants to see everyone happy.
A song I associate with her is "Mr. Blue Sky", by Electric Light Orchestra
