Lydia Martin

'''Lydia Martin is Jackson Whittemore's ex girlfriend. in episode three, Pack Mentality, it is implied that their relationship is sexual. She expresses an interest in Scott McCall when it is shown that he is exceptional at lacrosse. Until then she had no idea who he was. Its possible that she makes Jackson jealous by paying attention to Scott, and also uses him to motivate Jackson to better performance.'''

Lydia is the smartest girl in school. Her teacher has said that her GPA is above an A and said that she wants to test her IQ as she believes her to be a genius both academically and socially. Lydia befriends and likes Allison, however she tends to find Allison to be naive. When Allison asks Lydia for advice, Lydia very maturely and correctly tells her to get protection. This is very typical of Lydia as the comment is sexy and playful, but also very smart and responsible.

Unfortunately despite her achievements and obvious ability her parents do not think well of her, expecting her to collapse because of their nasty divorce so that they can blame each other. This shows that they do not know anything about their daughter, and care only for how they can play her as a card against the other parent.

In Lunatic despite being supportive of Allison's descion to break up with scott and telling her she did the right thing--this may have been for her on reasons and benefit despite already having jackson as her boyfriend--she willingly kissed and made out with scott in Coach's office.

Lydia does everything she can to both manipulate, and encourage Jackson, including playing down her amazing intellect, which would likely frighten away many people. She has an intrinsic understanding of psychology and social interaction. She is unusually stylish, and very individualistic in her dress choices. Many of her outfits hint at a dramatic, almost 1950's or film noir influence.
