BAD HABITS: A certain tendency to brush aside the concerns of others; a sharp tongue & scathing sarcasm - she’s quick to say a hurtful thing or two, this one, quite lacking in delicacy or social etiquette. Money has a tendency to run through her fingers rather faster than she expected. Rumour has it she’s an opportunist, but one thing’s for certain: she values logic and strategy over the regard for others and keeps her heart well-shielded beneath an occasional armour of arrogance and grandeur. Beware of her fiery temper … and her whirlwind coach-driving, as it so happens.

GOOD HABITS: Generosity and an abundance of love to give. Anne is a free spirit, a scientist at heart, very charismatic and in the proud possession of a most winning smile. She values what is hers and remains fiercely protective of her loved ones. Anne is a leader, a care-taker, someone who shoulders pain, responsibility and inconvenience so that others will not have to. She gives as freely and readily as she takes and has a keen, joyful mind.

I love & only love the fairer sex & thus beloved by them in turn, my heart revolts from any other love than theirs.

BIOGRAPHY

Anne is the oldest surviving child of Rebecca Battle and Jeremy Lister. Born in Market Weighton on the 3rd of April in 1791, Anne received a clerical education from a private tutor & reverend. Her exploration of her lesbian tendencies began after the year 1804, when she met her first love at Manor House School in York. To absolutely no one’s surprise, Anne was kicked out of boarding school for her lesbian relationship. She had soon enough begun to make rather a name for herself as an untameable young woman determined to seduce her female companions and break traditional gender roles (and quite a few hearts along the way). Since the academical world was denied to her, she continuously sought out private lessons from leading scientists and teachers. In her adult years, she received a one-on-one education in anatomy and palaeontology on behalf of Georges Cuvier in Paris.

Anne quickly cultivated a passion for �� well, not only lesbianism, but also classical literature, mountaineering, science, and travelling. After her uncle’s death, she inherited his estate, Shibden Hall, though she had been acting as the head of the family for some time, running the coal business and organising the tenancy. She accumulated a fair amount of wealth over the years and has no qualms spending it on her extravagant lifestyle - but can she afford what her heart desires most - a wife? We shall see …

IMPORTANT WOMEN IN ANNE’S PAST & PRESENT

Eliza Raine: Anne’s first lover, whom she shared a room with at boarding school as a teenage girl. Isabella Norcliffe: A former girlfriend of Anne’s, nicknamed “Tib”. They met in 1810 and remained friends throughout Anne’s life, though Anne heavily disapproves of Isabelle’s alcoholism. Mariana Lawton: The woman who caused Anne to wear black, since Mariana’s marriage to a man plunged Anne into deep mourning. They met in 1814 and still uphold frequent contact, occasionally meeting up for a bit of a lesbian romp. Maria Barlow: A widow Anne met in Paris and maintained a relationship with for two years, between 1824 and 1826, before they fell apart and Anne returned to England. Vere Hobart: Another addition to a long list of women who left Anne in favour of becoming a man’s wife. Vere is Anne’s latest love before meeting Ann Walker. She settled down in Hastings with her for the duration of a winter, firmly planning on spending the rest of her life in her company. Until, that is, she met Vere’s groom-to-be. Ann Walker: Wealthy, sweet, kind little Miss Walker. Surely Anne is not in love with her. Surely she cares little about her company. Surely this is all just a game. Surely Anne just courts her for her money and social standing. Certainly. Doubtlessly. Definitely.

ANNE AND RELATIONSHIPS

Frankly speaking, Anne LOVES to flirt - a bit of good-natured, harmless flirtation is one of her favourite pastimes, regardless of her current relationship status. When she’s not committed to another woman, she’s quite ready to take things further & far beyond a mere exchange of charm. Anne is very confident in her sexuality and wastes no time obsessing over the 19th century morality of her conquests. She loves women, she loves being around them, she loves looking at them and courting them, and she loves being intimate with them behind closed doors.

But it is important to note that all of those affairs are private. Due to the nature of the society she lives in, Anne can not let herself be seen openly kissing a woman and confirming the many rumours circulating about her and her female “acquaintances” ( who, by the way, she keeps in close touch with even after years. You physically CAN’T avoid Anne’s exes forever).

When Anne falls for someone, she falls hard and fast. She becomes very attached and demonstrates the deepest care and affection. But even so, she knows how to set boundaries for herself, regardless of what her heart wants. She has been thoroughly educated on looking out for herself in a relationship. If she is hurt beyond a certain point, she’ll be gone. Additionally, she can be calculating in her choice of partners, particularly when it comes to (unofficial) marriage. Anne is the head of her family and the one in charge of running Shibden, so any permanent commitment to a woman depends first and foremost on her lover’s social and financial standing.

( Unless … you manage to change her mind. )

See here for sexual boundaries & preferences.

TL;DR: Anne Lister is best summed up in the words of my girlfriend, who ever so wisely described her as follows: Anne: I’m very calm and classy. Also Anne: STOMP STOMP STOMP TANTRUM TANTRUM TANTRUM STOMP STOMP LESBIAN ROMP STOMP STOMP.
