ABOUT WRITING A BYRONIC HERO OR HEROINE

I am quite new and I don't know where I could I ask this. I am familiar with most of tropes, but the Byronic hero/heroine still confuses me at times. I have a female character who starts as a plucky comic relief, mouthy kid, deadpan snarker, jerk with a heart of gold, tomboy. As for personality she is friendly, immature, fun-loving, cheerful, impulsive, rebellious, troll, snarky, clever and defiant. She kinda suffers through the story from being a butt-monkey and break the cutie/haughty. After being tortured and nearly killed in a Tragedy by Impulsiveness, she turns into an empty shell due to PTSD, for a time. She still jerkish, defiant , snarky and fun-loving. But she becomes also cynical, jaded, dark-humored, revengeful, spiteful, arrogant, flirty, secretive, manipulative and developes a mama bear side. She still remains more jovial, balanced and friendlier than a classic Byronic Hero (she is a little similar to Alex Russo in behaviour, minus thae lazy slacker part), and while not that brooding, she is still torn apart by her dark and troubled past and has a massive survivor guilt. No to say that also suffers from unrequered love with another character of mine, which really is a byronic hero. She also has some blue and orange morality ( i think), for example, she could totalIy treat a villain very nice if she is in fond of him and his sins arent too repugnant, and be a total ass to a heroic character if the mood takes her. I feel like turning her from plucky comic relief into a lad-ette byronic heroine is an interesting character development, but I need your opinions if you think she can counts as one. P.S. She is also very young when her break the cutie begins (12 years old)
