Layla has long curly brown hair and dark eyes, and an ever-present smirk on her face. She is intelligent, curious, and eager for new knowledge, and very extroverted. She is driven by her passion for archeology after her father's similar passion, and to honor his memory: while tormented by his memory, she does not show it. She is not a professionally-trained fighter, but she can certainly hold her own in a fight, and has picked up fighting skills over the years.
