Malina is very open at seeing new things, seeing their differences but respect them as she thinks all things/beings complement each other.
Printing the Academy's news scroll and being enthusiastic at adventures, her curiosity at discovering the truth of the events is one of her main traits, sometimes leading her to commit daring actions that require considerable bravery. Malina is a very smart person who usually acts calm, smart, reasonable, and somewhat serious, the latter sometimes scaring Kuzco and Kronk. After her graduation, Malina becomes a reporter at Kuzconian Times. She is one of Kuzco and Kronk's best friends and Kuzco's love interest, as well as Kuzco Academy's school council president and one of their cheerleaders.
Malina is the deuteragonist in The Emperor's New School.
