Her appearance is very similar to [[Ana]] from ''[[EarthBound Beginnings]]'', and according to Itoi, this was done intentionally to allow the player to decide if they were the same character or not.

===Personality and other characteristics===
Paula is a very kind and helpful young girl. The children at Polestar Preschool look up to her like a mother. She appears to be fond of teddy bears as she has one in a present in her room, and she carried one while locked up in her cell in Happy Happy Village.
In the Japanese release of Mother 2 she is depicted as also being weak and passive, to the point where she would have cried if Ness hadn't come to rescue her when she was locked up in the cell. In the English release of EarthBound, however, her stronger side is further shown as the line saying she almost cried was changed to say she would have tried to bust her way out if Ness didn't come. According to the English script writer Marcus Lindblom, he changed it intentionally as the original line made her seem very weak and sensitive, and he instead wanted to potray her as a forceful American girl with a "willing to destroy" personality.
