Background
A former member of the Guardian Corps, Lightning is impulsive, demanding of herself and others, and often quick to show anger. She had one objective: to rescue her sister, Serah, who had been branded as a l'Cie by the godlike fal'Cie who governed the world. She would stop at nothing to achieve this end, even if it meant exile from her own homeland.
Ultimately, she failed to save Serah, was branded as a l'Cie herself, and swore to take revenge by destroying both the fal'Cie and the Sanctum. Lightning's resentment for the fal'Cie was shared by a young man named Hope, who joined her quest to destroy the Sanctum.
Eventually, however, Lightning realized that their lofty ambitions were nothing more than a vain attempt to escape their problems. After this revelation, Lightning dedicated herself to protecting Hope and bringing back Serah. With this newfound knowledge of her own flaws, she learned to empathize with those she previously held nothing but contempt for.
The pendant she wears was a gift from Serah.
