Kaida Welsh is slow, patient, peaceful, and romantic. She has dreams of being a great poet and donating millions of Neopoints to the Soup Kitchen and the Money Tree. But she has a temper that sometimes even her deep breaths and meditation can't hide. She can be bossy, trying to force her inner peace on others; she is resentful of people who cannot seem to see her side of things. She is a hippie. She was recently dumped by her boyfriend, Tim Dickinson, and is pretty upset about it; she writes poetry about him.

One of Kaida's problems is that she thinks that her bossiness is just because she wants to help people, and she really does, but other people just see it as rudeness and she doesn't know how to help. She feels very pressured by her parents, who have always stressed hippy ideals without realizing that they just want her to find her own path in her life and do her own thing. She is opinionated and somewhat moody; she tries to control her moods with meditation, and she tries to be intuitive.
