Personality:
Cornelia is the eldest of two in a -very- well to do family. Although the youngest daughter, Cornelia's little sister Lillian, tends to get the lion's share of her parents attention. Cornelia fills the void of the attention she wishes she had from her parents, by focusing on her appearance. This gives her a bit of a materialistic personality, spending hours putting together the perfect ensemble or brushing her hair A LOT. She doesn't care to do any manual labor that will cause her to perspire, and when it comes to having to sit in grimy places or do anything that might get her a little dirty, she blatantly refuses. She likes the finer things in life, and having to deal with less than it is liable to make her complain at first. She'll suck it up though, if she has to, but it's obvious that she delights in fancy things and places. She can enjoy the "Simple" life for a short time, but it will grate on her nerves before long.
Cornelia tends to be bossy when she isn't balanced by her companions, prefering to 'supervise' over actually 'doing'. Going along with that is her confidence - or more to the point, her OVERconfidence. She believes she can handle pretty much anything on her own, and may find herself in over her head because of it. Any challenge she is confronted with, she meets with a snarky comment and a bit of attitude, the easiest way to confront a situation in which she's scared or uneasy. She isn't beyond asking for help - it's just getting to that point can be a bit difficult, given her stubbornness. She can even be a bit cynical at times, refusing to believe in things before her eyes at first - even after becoming a Guardian the first time, she was unwilling to accept that what had happened, -actually- happened.
Aside from the external, deep down she's a considerate, friendly person who can be very level headed - even romantic. Those she calls friend she has a limitless faith in them, even when it appears that they may no longer be on her side, such as the case as when her best friend temporarily turned against her and her friends. She put her life on the line trying to talk to her still. It may not appear to be the casual observer, but those who know her better, knows she can be much kinder to her friends.

Skills and Abilities:
As Guardian of Earth, Cornelia's primary element is earth, giving her main ability that of geokinesis/chlorokinesis. She is able to manipulate anything even related with an earth element, such as paper, wood, silt, minerals, crystal, gems, sand, mud, some foods like sugar and wheat, silicon, molten rock, etc. Her power is fairly strong, but only when there is actually something that can be manipulated. She has shown that she is able to set off earthquakes, tear holes in the ground, shift the terrain around her, slice through stone with her fingertips, and control seismic energy. Later, she learns to "greenspeak", i.e being able to speak with and sense plants, from the previous Earth Guardian. Said Earth Guardian, Kadma, was also able to speak to birds (and presumably other animals of earth), so it isn't too unlikely that Cornelia would develop that ability too, eventually down the line, after much training.

She also develops a secondary power, that being telekinesis, after the power boost that the Guardians received in the second season. With her telekinesis, she has learned to levitate herself, fire telekinetic pulses, and defend herself with a barrier. As her powers continue to grow, she learns a minor, mostly useless, ability to cast a glamour upon herself - changing her appearance into a more mature-looking and sounding version of her human self. Lastly, she also has learned to heal someone's wounds, using her connection with her element. However the level of what she can heal would be up to the player's consent, and she does not have the ability to bring someone back from the dead.

She has an ultimate form, gained when she merged with the earth dragon at the end of her canon, in which she becomes a being that resembled more tree than girl, and her hair becomes longer and prehensile, demonstrated with her other minor ability, of trichokenisis.
