Personality: An experienced ER nurse, Claire is strong-willed, almost by default. She has to be, to go through any and every single shift at Hell's Kitchen's Metro-General. At this point, she knows most low level gang members kicking around Hell’s Kitchen, and she’s stitched most of them back up at one point or another; she has a knack for talking to them, and they respect her for her bluntness and honesty.
When she meets Daredevil, he is passed out in her building’s dumpster. She saves his life, patching his multiple stab wounds and giving him an emergency pneumothorax - she doesn’t call the police nor an ambulance, instead deciding to take care of him herself, as she recognized him to be a vigilante. This was the start of her relationship with Matt Murdock; a complicated one that would put her life in danger and lead her to question many of her ethics.
She thinks of herself as a person with strong morals; she wants to do good, and to help people, to help her city be a better place to live in. But she can also be judgmental - she is with Matt when she pointedly tells him he put someone in a coma. Part of it is to cover her fears; fear that Matt will lose himself and start killing people, fear that her city will become unlivable, fear that her connection to Matt will just end up hurting her.
Despite some spitefulness, her need to do good tends to take over any pettiness. When Ranskahov was about to die, despite having been abducted and hurt by him, she helped Daredevil save him. Still, when a thug attacks them and Daredevil keeps him tied up, Claire helps him, giving him instructions on where to stab the thug to hurt him the most. She’ll break rules and laws when she believes it right, which is also how she manages to get herself a sturdy first-aid kit, taking resources from the hospital without authorization.
She can be brash to her patients, but it is more about keeping them safe than real anger or annoyance. She can also be sassy, with a quick wit that shows she’s not afraid of pushing back, even against gangsters and criminals.
Part of her morals also come from her upbringing. Raised in a Cuban, religious family, Claire was held to high standards, and wanted to make them proud every single day. She attended church, sunday school and confession, and has maintained her faith through the years, even if she isn't as devout as she was as a child. She still relies on her faith when times get tough - she leaned on it when she was kidnapped, and trusted that Daredevil would save her.
She trusts few things in her life; her own skill, her family, her faith and the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen. Even if she doesn’t always believe in his methods and sometimes his motives, even when she worries that he will lose himself, she believes that he’s doing it to help Hell’s Kitchen’s people, and that’s why she sticks by him and promises she will keep helping him if he needs her.
Claire is a strong, independent woman who’s made her own path in a city riddled with crime and gang wars. Every day she fights to make her neighborhood a better place, while never leaving anyone behind. She adapts; speaking fluent Spanish when necessary, pulling out all sorts of pop culture references, from comics to video games, when she’s dealing with kids in the ER, gathering supplies to help whoever she has to.
Abilities/Skills: Expert Physician: Claire is considered to be Metro-General Hospital's best nurse, and possesses more advanced Emergency Medicine training than most nurses. She was able to quickly save Matt Murdock's life in her own apartment without any advanced procedures. When interrogating a thug, she demonstrates her in-depth knowledge of human anatomy by coaching Murdock on where in the head to stab their captive to cause the greatest amount of pain without killing him. Temple is also imaginative enough to find unorthodox ways to help enhanced individuals.
Multilingualism: Clairespeaks fluently in Spanish, talking to Santino, and then Elena Cardenas in her own language in order to calm her down when she was injured during the Bombing of Hell's Kitchen.
Hand to hand combat: It is revealed later (in Luke Cage) that Claire has trained with her uncle in the past to acquire some hand-to-hand, self-defense skills.
