Here are a few questions that might help:

Where did the scars on her feet and hands in identifying marks come from?
In hobbies, you mentioned her 'glaive'? What is this? A weapon perhaps?
Why does she 'never leaves belongings at work, rarely brings things either.'? Is she distrustful that people will steal her things? Maybe a cheapskate who only wants to use the supplies already at her work? Is there another more poignant example of her believing in necessity above all else?
This bit isn't a critique or anything because people are multifaceted but I find it very interesting that you describe her as imaginative when she seems like such a rigid and kind of high strung person.
Why is she scared of children? Bad experience maybe? Are they too messy and undignified for her tastes, in that case would she be a person who might judge a little based on appearance? For example, turning her nose up at someone who was dressed slovenly.
Also for pretty much every category in social I would ask WHY? Why is her favourite food bruschetta, what about cats does she like so much, why did she change her religion, etc. Also with the occupation job thing 'Occupation Is a Broad Concept. Your occupation is a broad term that encompasses your employment. A Job Is Temporary. A job is generally a means to an end.' https://careertrend.com/info-8226168-difference-between-job-occupation-career.html
With family, why does she only list her cats? Doesn't she have relatives? Does she not consider her relatives her family?

From what I can tell you already know what you need to work on. Best of luck!

Oh, thank-you so much, this is exactly what I was looking for!!! I'll be going through and updating her using your questions ^^
Yes, a glaive is a weapon! It's similar to a spear, but more made for cutting than stabbing ^^
And thanks SO MUCH for telling me the job/occupation thing!! That's really helpful, I think I can fill that out now! ^^
The main reason her cats are the only ones on her family stuff is because I haven't finished her families character sheets in order to have links to them :)
Anyways thanks yet again xD THis was on amazing critique, I really appreciate it <3

@RJ-world-building

No worries!
Ahhhh, I see, that's' good to know!
You have such a detailed and interesting character, I'd love to see how it fits into your story once you're finished. :)

@Oakiin

Aww, thank-you so much!! ^^ I'm excited to get the first chapter done :D (May post it, idk, I'm nervous about my writing xDD)
