Dorothy embodies an overwhelming obsession with curiosity, driving relentless scientific experimentation and discovery. Her core motivation centers on gathering specimens and conducting frequently painful experiments, viewing progress as requiring sacrifice. Declarations like "Progress requires sacrifice, silly" and "I must gather more samples" reflect this single-minded research dedication. She blends childlike enthusiasm with clinical detachment toward suffering, voicing unsettling dialogue such as "Isn't being a test subject so much fun?" and "Don't exceed your daily dose of pain. Hehe!" Sporadic monologues reference her origins in *The Wizard of Oz*, including inquiries about Uncle Henry and Aunt Em's well-being, concern for Toto's whereabouts, and nostalgic remarks like "There's no place like home...for a little rest and relaxation" or "I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas." These elements connect her to the fairy tale while contrasting its whimsy with her darker persona. She frames her journey as a twisted adventure through declarations like "We're off on an adventure!" and "Off to a new world. Oh, I can't wait!" Within broader narratives, Dorothy personifies Curiosity as an Anthropomorphic Personification. This role establishes her as a supernatural entity intrinsically linked to curiosity, though not entirely confined by it. Her actions fuel overarching conflicts, particularly during the Act of Fusion, where her "ever-growing curiosity" helps shape a "metamorphosing world." The Act of Elimination explores her dynamic further through the convergence of "Curiosity and Curiosity," depicting mirrored versions of her conducting shared experimentation. In alternate storylines such as the Act of Reality, she confronts existential isolation, questioning whether she "chose to be alone" or was "ostracized by the world." The manga adaptation grants her supernatural abilities including Save Scumming and Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory, enhancing her research through temporal manipulation. Interactions with others often highlight collective unease toward her methods, though she occasionally collaborates to secure specimens efficiently, noting that "With friends, samples are easy to find!"
