This was by pure observation.

For watching Jurassic Park a thousand times, and Jurassic World just once I find that Rexy (dispite being a dinosaur) has a very complex personality and character.

Jurassic Park: Rexy presents us with a curious, intelligent, and violent persona.

(Breaking free of her paddock): Rexy was testing the fence with on of her claws indicating that Rexy understood the dangerous volts within the wires, but somehow managed before hand to deduce that the power went out. Upon tearing the fence appart Rexy proceeding through does not go into an inmediate rampage (Showing that her violent nature is by her own control). Instead she shows a curious nature to her as she investigates the tour jeeps first testing them out. It is when the lights appear and the desocvery of people inside them that draws out Rexy's violent nature.

(The jeep chase scene):  In this scene of the movie it shows a perhaps another side of Rexy that would be difficult to understand. Rexy's pursuit of the jeep was of a curious nature because at first one could see it as a creature chasing down its prey, but when the T-rex slams her head against the jeeps side it was not enough force to knock it over. In truth if Rexy truely exerted her effort into that hit the vechile would have easily flipped. This could mean (given by a guess) Rexy's pursuit of the vechile was her own entertainment, and that the slam might mean she was more or less toying with the jeep.

(Galli hunt and T-rex Rescue):  While not so much an oberservation on her personality, but rather her intellect, cunning, and power. Her ability to ambush the Gallimimus flock undetected through the trees without any actual hunting experience what-so ever says volumes on her ability to adapt rapidly to the newly changed enviornment to bring down swift prey. As for the fight with the raptors shows something else entirely. To everyones suprise at the end of the film Rexy managed to move without causing the earth to shake or reveal her gigantic presence until the last possible moment. Given the grand intellect of the raptors especially The Big One. Rexy outsmarted the raptors (with supreme sense of smell, hearing, and sight) by moving unnoticed into a building and catching one in mid air. This single handedly prove Rexy being a highly intellegent animal who was content with her captive life at first, but proved to be highly skilled in survival without her human handlers.

Jurassic World: Reestablish these oberservations and more

(Climax scene of the movie):  Rexy entery into the movie is late, but it is no less amazing even before the fight, show that Rexy not only has a curious persona has a reserved personality, probably developed over time. This reservation comes from the fact that when the gate opened and the flare was presented to her Rexy did not immideatly attack her. In he first film anything that moved was up for grabs for Rexy whether it be human or dinosaur. She showed no hesitation to kill something when her hunger demands it (Ian Malcom can support this), but in this film Rexy leans her face straight at Claire Dearing (while she is actively moving) yet does not even attempt to eat her. When she runs away Rexy fallows at a brisk pace. All this might mean that Rexy curiosity as to her own release as well as the flare, which signals food, shows her reservation for killing things just for the sake of it.

It is only the reveal of the hybrid to her that Rexy understand ths true threat, and shows her violent nature. As for the one on one fight itself many could consider the aspects of Rexy's effort into the battle, and personally I find the idea of a dinosaur with arms as the sole reason for beating a T-rex is radiculous I must acknowledge this maybe the one reason fans will assume her almost defeat from I-rex. That said here is my side of what could have been the event had Blue not been alive to help Rexy. (alternate form of observation) At that last moment Rexy does a curious move that could be taken as acting. Because if you watch her reaction she simply plops down her head like she is dead (her eyes not moving, her mouth open, and showed no signs of breathing) If I had to guess this motive she might have been letting the Hybrid move in close, so that she could get in a fatal blow (end of alternate form of observation). That said here is what we do see. Rexy shows of her ability to compromise with a raptor (a species she has no reason to trust), and works with Blue to take the hybrid down. When the hybrid is kill we see the most incredible part of Rexy's persona that is almost human.

(The exchange with Blue) In this moment there was nothing to keep Rexy from killing Blue. She had dispatched raptors before with ease including the Big One the most fear raptor in history. In this moment we see appreciation from Rexy and a willingness to go her own way without shedding more blood. This aspect is something that not even the T-rexs of the other films were willing to do.

Conclusion:  From all this based on the films it can be said that Rexy is a dinosaur character with a distictive violent nature given by her species with a great amount of intelligence, independence. An ability to be very curious, appreciative, and small amount of unique compassion.

So what do y'all think? agree or disagree? put too much thought into it? Anything you have noticed about her you would like to add?
