Since the vast majority of the human population is right hand dominant, meeting someone who is the opposite isn't something most people would expect. Some would think that it would be a handicap because left-handed people live in a world that is geared toward those who are right-handed; however, it has quite a few perks. Left-handed characters often have to adapt to the world by forcing themselves to use their right hand, which can, over time, cause them to be adept at using both of their hands/feet (as well as both sides of their body).
