Saffron is a con woman. She usually plays the role of the submissive, innocent young woman and tricks a mark (usually a wealthy man, often one who has access to spacecraft, valuable equipment, or high-security information) into marrying her in a ceremony on some backwater planet. She then steals information or objects from her husband and disappears, leaving him to die or convincing him that she has been kidnapped.
In the Firefly 'verse, she first appears on Triumph, and is married to a drunken Mal Reynolds as partial payment for services rendered to a town. She seems to be very traditional, a meek girl who loves to cook for her husband. However, she soon reveals that she is highly skilled and trained, with knowledge of seduction techniques, drugs, spacecraft flight and mechanics, psychology, mythology, and fighting. She locks the controls of Mal's ship and sets it on a course to encounter a salvage net, which will kill the crew and leave the ship intact for selling. She is able to take down the entire crew temporarily, allowing her to steal a shuttle and escape.
She makes another appearance later in the show as the wife of one of Mal's war buddies, this time under the name of Bridget. She is able to talk Mal and the crew into helping her with a scam, the theft of a precious artifact from... you guessed it, another of her husbands (who knows her as Yolanda).
Saffron/Bridget/Yolanda is dead crazy, sexy, untrustworthy, selfish, cunning, brilliant, and highly trained. However, she can be outwitted by a group of people working together because she trusts no one. She is quite bright but occasionally can miss obvious things. (For example, she gives herself away as a liar to Monty by knowing Mal's last name before Monty has said it.) She always sets up heists that will have a high monetary turnover. However, she generally gets her satisfaction not from the major payoff, but from proving that she is better and smarter than her marks.
Most people will not figure this out until after a number of interactions with her.
