Welcome, Larm Hargraven!

And what I mean is that if that's all her characterization is, her importance in these strips should be seen far less than we do already. It'd mean she's either poorly written or written to be a throw-away character.

We won't know more until (if) we meet her. Jeph certainly has a history of taking a while to settle a new character's characterisation satisfactorily (Hanners and Angus are prime examples), so I prefer to withhold judgement for a while.
Tova:
I think after all that discussion, we've all agreed that it's not cool to threaten the person who's just helped your friend with genital mutilation. Okay? Okay, cool. I'm glad that's settled.
Still, I think it's a stretch to imply that she's doing that only because she's an unpleasant person. Maybe there are circumstances that make it forgivable, even. Sure, she's emotional after her best friend was in a fire, she's now being helped by someone she met at a bar entirely unknown to her, and she's not there to protect her friend. Arguably a touch overprotective, but there is almost certainly a relevant history we're ignorant of here as well.
What am I trying to say? Actually, pwhodges stole my line. Maybe withhold judgement for a bit.
In the meantime, I'll just chuck her onto the list of characters who copped hate when introduced.
APersonAmI:
Oh, right.
Dr. Jim. Alanari. RMc. Larm Hargraven.
Welcome!
I hope you will have a good time.

That's pretty much all of them, isn't it?
