SCARS While her face is untainted and doll-like, her body is scarred all over with many different shapes and textures.
CLOTHES When outside Elayne always wears clothing that conceals her whole body. Only the upper part of her neck and her hands will be visible. Aside from this she will also often wear a heavy layer of make-up. When she is at home, her clothes are simple, not always covering her body and thus showing her scars. She will keep the make-up from the last time she went out until it is completely smudged and ruined.


It is safe to say Elayne lives in her own world, which is caused by her living in captivity and the experiments that were conducted on her. In the beginning it was a safety mechanism to get away from the horrid reality she was in, but her twisted mind is now unable to discern reality from fantasy, making social interaction with strangers quite the challenge. She will see things that aren't there, she will hear things that aren't there and she will talk to them as well. She can be naïve and childlike, depending very heavily on Allison, whom she sees as her caretaker and saviour. Because her social interactions with random people have been very scarce ever since Allison took her in, she has a really hard time reading other people's emotions and responding appropriately. Her own emotions are very raw and badly contained, she will often react very impulsive, not thinking things through but just going by the emotion she feels at the time. This makes her potentially dangerous, as the only one who can calm her down is Allison and there is no telling what she will do in a fit of anger when not contained.


Elayne is a very gifted necromancer and she has become quite skilled with bringing dead things back to life. If in the outside world knew about her powers they would probably mark her as a potential threat, but she does not use those powers to her own benefit in a way that it would actively cause harm to others. No, as Elayne is so frequently surrounded by death, aside from Allison the dead are her only real companions. At first it was just her talking to bodies and skeletons, her mind making them talk back, but eventually she would unintentionally bring these dead things to life with her magic. She finds comfort in them and will only make them cause harm when she feels someone is threatening her in a way.

PRE-FORUM HISTORY
Elayne had a very easy childhood, being the daughter of a wealthy merchant. As she was their only child and they spoiled her with gifts and attention. It is safe to say Elayne always got what she wanted when she was young. She became quite the rebellious teenager, often staying out late and hanging around with shady folk in the harbours of Cois. A lucky girl would in this case fall in love with the wrong guy, get abducted by pirates or be sold as a slave. Elayne however, was taken by Allison as the first experiment of the young woman. At the age of 16, she found herself locked in a basement, behind the bars of a cage. Like she was some kind of animal. She was experimented on in many ways, causing scars all over her body. Only her face and hands were left untainted, in case she would ever need to get out of that basement, she needed to be presentable to others without them suspecting anything. She was terrified. Most of the others that were taken to the basement died soon after and she often wished for death herself.

At some point in time, Elayne already lost all sense of how many days, weeks or months had passed, she took a rare opportunity to escape. She found herself at night Falkreath, without proper clothing and with no knowledge at all about the country or where she should go. Some men with bad intentions found her, a girl should not have wandered around alone at this time of day. Out of the frying pan into the fire. It was Allison who came to her rescue that night, which made something in her mind click. After a little more time spend within the basement, she became oddly attached to the woman. She was not regarded as a monster any more, but instead a saviour. Over the following years this bond only seemed to deepen and she would rely on Allison for everything. This allowed her to see daylight again, although only when she covered up her scars. Allison would do her make-up and she would love it so much she would leave it on after returning to the cellar. Because she became more accustomed to her current life, she also became used to the dead bodies and skeletons that were around. This is where she eventually began unintentionally practising necromancy, her powers and skills growing over the years together with her trust in Allison.  


* Elayne learned how to hunt using a bow and arrow from Allison. Because she treasures everything that Allison gives her, knowledge and skill included, Elayne has become pretty adapt at using the bow and catching her own food.
* Elayne’s best friends are: Victor, Katarina, Eric and Eliza. All of these don’t really exist and only take physical form through Elayne’s necromancy. There are others, but these four will be near her most often.
