We know nothing of her true character because everything's been easy for her. No struggle, no real resistance, no real challenges.
She's a Disney Princess.

How do you know that was the first time she faced danger? She'd been living alone for most of her life and, based on the way she fought, i thought it was pretty clear she'd been facing danger for most of it and has learned how to defend and take care of herself - the hard way.
Everybody alludes imperial soldiers. It's the oldest star wars joke in the book
Luke was a farmer, yet successfully fought off fully trained tie pilots and used the force to successfully target a improbable hole in the deathstar with about 12 seconds of training.
Star Wars hasn't changed, you have.
