Saviour has a certain Naivete about her, enhance that. The world is full of Unicorns, Gum drops, and rainbows and she needs to know that. Also, she has no wants. Wants promote greed and jealousy, but is very human at the same time. Finally, give her a brick wall, something to climb over (metaphorically). Barricades to certain desires are constant, and therefore need to be climbed. But remember not to overdo them, because then you get some really surreal kinda situations. Just a couple of suggestions. Remember, the Mary Sue formula can be broken.
