Personality
Ruby was protective of the children Carla fostered, acting as a supportive sibling figure. She instinctually sought to protect Lulubelle after the goblins kidnapped her, even when faced with precarious and life-threatening obstacles.
She was also comfortable with her abandonment, embracing the term "foundling" upon Davina McCall's usage of the term. However, she did seek out her biological mother, if only to understand the truth behind it all. However, when Davina's search for Ruby's family was in vain, Ruby expressed disappointment in having no other relatives.
