I am not is a position to write much , everyone's points are well written. But would congratulate you for putting the characters and fitting them into Maslow's table. :)
Just try for a post with Cognitive Evaluation Model, too. I would like to see how you put Ruqs into that, and judge her based on intrinsic motivators and extrinsic causatives. :-P
Interestingly, intrinsic motivators tend to be higher on the Maslow hierarchy table also. :)
Abhay,
I am posting this here like I mentioned, I have been using the
characters as case study for Academic purpose.
And Ruky interest me most in that direction and I have
come to the diagnostic conclusion that she is showing signs of Borderline
Personality Disorder (BPD) I am still evaluating though as the Serial goes on
to see if am right.
The Key features of this disorder are:
Problems with regulating emotions and thoughts.
Impulsive and reckless behavior.
Unstable relationships with other people.
Marked Symptoms are varying but the few this character has shown
so far to me are the following.
Extreme rage or frantic actions.
Stormy relationships with family and loved ones (extreme dislike / anger).
Distorted and unstable self-image or sense of self ( which
can result in sudden changes in feelings, opinions values or plans and goals).
Impulsive behavior
Substance Abuse
Chronic feelings of emptiness (May feel angry and distressed
over minor separations of people to whom they feel close to)
With a lot more am waiting to see if this character will
show all of them then I can say hmm I got it right.
