History Characters / Sunstone

* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Narrator Lisa is quick to call Story Lisa an idiot, particularly when calling Story Lisa out on being mean to Valerie for petty reasons, I.E. she's blond.

** FieryRedhead: She can get pretty emotionally excited, though this does lead to Foot-in-Mouth disease. And you DON'T want to mess with her when she gets angry!

* GamerChick: Given her job, it's to be expected.

* [[WhereDoesHeGetAllThoseWonderfulToys Where Does She Get All Those Wonderful Toys?]]: Ally has a staggeringly impressive collection of toys, including an entire wardrobe of custom-made outfits for both of her subs and herself, cuffs, chains, restraints and suspension rigs, a custom-made ''mermaid outfit'', the infamous "see-saw," a made-to-order bed just for sex and, last but certainly not least, an ''actual chariot''. We are shown that Alan and Chris make a living out of making these things for people and that Ally is really quite well-off, but WordOfGod states that [[CrackIsCheaper Ally has spent]] ''[[CrackIsCheaper forty grand]]'' [[CrackIsCheaper on this collection]]. Lampshaded somewhat in a strip:
-->'''Lisa:''' Okay, I tried avoiding this question... but, yeah... How much did you spend on all this stuff?
-->'''Ally:''' Yeahhh... um, quite a bit... so... really... don't ask.

* HiddenDepths: Ally, at first, seems like a confident and successful person, but it becomes clear that she is terribly lonely and has some regrets she can't manage to overcome.

* TheLoad: After some soul searching, Lisa realizes she is this when it comes to relationships. She is always expecting her partner to understand her needs and wants without needing to be told and basically placing all the work to keep the relationship going at their feet.

The main protagonist of ''{{Webcomic/Sunstone}}'' and its primary narrator. She plays the "sub" in her and Ally's relationship, and initially met her face-to-face after months of interaction via the Internet to meet those desires. What follows is a blossoming romance between the two, which she is seen chronicling post-TimeSkip.

* AggressiveSubmissive: Outside the bedroom, Lisa tends to be the more active one in her and Ally's relationship. Inside the bedroom she is a complete sub.

* HiddenDepths: Despite being a complete sub in the bedroom, Lisa everywhere else is a confident, level-headed and assertive person. However, Lisa's biggest flaw is that when it comes to relationships, she only acts when she feels it is emotionally safe to act, which among other things cost her her relationship with David [[spoiler:and very nearly costs her her relationship with Ally as well]].

* AggressiveSubmissive: Outside the bedroom, Lisa tends to be the more active one in her and Ally's relationship. Inside, she is a complete sub.

* ExperimentedInCollege: Back when Ally and Alan were in their relationship together, they tried out the ropes of BDSM, but since both of them were dominants, it was always a competition between the two of them, and they always tried to outdo each other, which didn't really end well.

Ally's ex-boyfriend turned best friend. He designs BDSM gear and paraphernalia for clubs and clients, and is Ally's primary supplier. Oh yeah--he's also a quite skilled dominant, comparable to Ally herself. Becomes one of the leads as of the ''Mercy'' arc.

* AmicableExes / BetterAsFriends: He and Ally.

* OutnumberedSibling The only girl among two brothers.

* BrainsAndBondage: Highly intelligent programmer? Check. SexySpectacles? Check. Crazy amount of BDSM gear? CHECK.

* SexySpectacles: Ally wears a pair of these. In her Domme persona, they make her look insanely hot, but in her more awkward real persona, they just make her look adorable.

* SafeSaneAndConsensual: Marion violates all three principles in her self-bondage attempt. It nearly kills her via tightening of ropes around wrists enough to cut off circulation and develop deadly blood clots (very much unsafe); she's in such a passionate state when she does it that she doesn't notice she's doing it wrong (not sane at all); and she's doing it despite Alan already telling her he doesn't want this kind of relationship (anything but consensual).

* MulticoloredHair: Black on one side, white on the other.
** SkunkStripe: When she's first introduced it's mentioned her hair has a natural large white patch which caused Marion to decide to dye her hair.

** Goes even further when we meet her ShadowArchetype, the green-skinned manifestation of her self-loathing, who has the FanNickname of "Lisux" after her t-shirt.
