Always paying attention to little details and trying her best to help those around her in anyway she can. While her gentle nature can make her seem boring or uptight, she has a spirited attitude. When around those that she's gotten to know and is comfortable with, Mason is actually pretty playful and tends to turn toward teasing as a display of affection.

She had devoted her adolescent years to consuming as much knowledge as she could, opting to travel far and wide to her hearts content.
