Rachel Gardner

Rachel Gardner (Born June 10, 2005) is the main protagonist in The Panic Room.

Backstory
Nothing is known for Rachel's backstory. Although Rachel's psychiatric doctor, Dr. Daniel "Danny" Bright claims to know a lot about her backstory and her own self.

Presonality
Rachel is originally presented as extremely calm and collected, though this likely stems from her desire to die. The other floor masters say that she is ruthless, selfish, and manipulative, and willing to do anything to get what she wants. However, it is a misnomer to consider her an evil or malicious person, as she does not inherently understand human morality and does not have actual cruel impulses.

She is shown to have issues with empathy and difficulty expressing or understanding emotions, and while she has shown fear, anger, compassion, and happiness, these are rare, fleeting, and moderate. She does not, however, fake emotions, and will not pretend to have feelings that are not present. In the later episodes, though, she appears to become more expressive.

Rachel is fixated on the idea of the existence of God. This make her distress when Gray told her God won't accept her oath with Zack and when Zack told her he believes God does not exist in the world. She then became so delusional that she saw Zack as her God.

Only until Zack helped her accepting her actions that she finally come to terms with her warped view. Afterwards, Rachel started to act like a normal person, particularly in regards to Zack whom she grew to genuinely care for.
