Elora's Theme: "Ephemeral Emotion"

Real Name: Róisín Whelton (pronounced ROW-sheen)

Age: 21 (Joined at 19)

Sex: Female

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Height: 5'7

Weight: 140lbs

Build: Pear-shaped body

Eye Color: Light blue

Hair Color: Light green

General Appearance: Elora doesn't change her appearance often since she'd rather not undergo the process of committing to a different look. Low-maintenance styling that she's already familiar with makes up the bulk of her physical appearance and her wardrobe. The back of her hair rests at shoulder length while the front of her hair is usually tied off to prevent it from interfering with her vision. 

Attire: Elora can typically be seen wearing cuffed shorts and a high-necked tank top that she dresses up or down depending on the weather. Sometimes she wears leggings beneath her trousers and gloves over her hands while her shoulders are covered with an insulated cape. She sports a pair of thigh-high leather boots which are surprisingly light and sturdy, considering their height. The belongings she travels with are typically stored in a pouch at her hip.

Speech Characteristics: Elora speaks with a faint Irish accent that becomes more pronounced the faster she talks. She tends to have an air of exhaustion to her voice, as if she has already lost or just never developed interest in a topic of discussion.  

Quirks: Has an impeccable memory for recalling directions, suffers from excessive slouching 

Likes: Gravitating to people who know what they're doing, the flavor of mint, distractions

Dislikes: Over-achievers, repetitive sounds, touchy people, people who ramble

Fears: Emotional disassociation, snake-like creatures

Goals: To befriend others who will value her for the things that she has accomplished.

Profession: Alchemist

FLAWS

Unmotivated/Nihilistic - Elora often has a difficult time seeing the point to many activities, especially ones that she doesn't excel in right away. Even though she wants to achieve her goals, her temperament usually leaves her feeling listless, trapping her in a constant loop of starting and stopping various tasks. Sometimes described as a nihilist, Elora may occasionally downplay certain events or skills as not mattering in the grand scheme of things, no matter how impressive they may be.

Easily Discouraged - Elora is the kind of person who wants to try everything at least once. However, attempting to gain expertise in many activities at once usually spreads her energy and her focus too thin. Rather than investing large sums of time into failing and retrying any one thing, she will simply drop whatever she isn't grasping to move on to a new pursuit. Sometimes these decisions can prevent her from trying out new things on her own, even when she is eager to leave her comfort zone.

anime-high-elf-archer-goblin-slayer.thumb.jpg.c64708622116644db23087d50873f900.jpgProjecting - She has a bad tendency to project the fears and insecurities she experiences on other people. Unable to recognize or come to terms with some of her emotional baggage, she instead claims to see the same manifesting in the individuals she interacts with. This inclination usually arises when she is communicating with people she dislikes, since 'their' flaws are easier to notice.

Imposter Syndrome - Because she is unsuccessful in her attempts to learn new skills quickly, Elora usually finds herself struggling to accept that she is truly qualified to handle anything. She feels that many of her successes can be attributed to luck and fears that her facade of self-confidence will fall apart when others are watching. Although she tries her best to convince herself that mastery will come easily to her, deep down, she worries that she'll exhaust herself of opportunities to excel.

 

VIRTUES

Exploratory - When she isn't feeling disheartened, Elora is the kind of person who wants to try everything at least once. Leaving her comfort zone re-energizes her and gives her new goals to accomplish. Her passion for learning can motivate her to set out on journeys of self-discovery or to perform tasks in the hopes of bettering her skillset. 

Dedicated - One of Elora's biggest redeeming qualities is that she invests large sums of energy into any task that she deems as rewarding. This can translate to anything from growing a plant in the hopes of eating it or to making life-long commitments to the people that she values. She may not make many commitments, but she won't fall back on the promises she's choosen to make. 

Problem-Solver  - Preferring things that have clear resolutions, Elora often tries to solve her problems quickly and efficiently. Sometimes she will do this by coming up with easy, sometimes rudimentary, solutions to the obstacles that she encounters. Other times, she will evade responsibilities completely to avoid undertaking a role of leadership.

 

BIOGRAPHY

Elora graduated high school at the top of her class. From the bottom of the roster. Grades didn't come easily for her, and neither did socializing with peers. With no prospects of attending a distinguished college, why would she bother trying to enroll in one at all? After all, it was just a big waste of time and money. Elora wouldn't be fooled by the system. She would learn how to develop a skill and get an occupation doing something she loved. There were just...so many options... She researched what she could do to begin a creative pursuit or to train herself to solve problems with logic. 

The following year came and went so quickly that Elora felt she had no achievements to show for her endeavours. It was becoming increasingly harder to justify the time she committed to trying out any one skill in the hopes it would be 'the one' for her. The motivation she had possessed after graduating was nothing more than an arbitrary expectation at this point. Slipping into a deep depression, she switched on the NerveGear and left all of her fears and failures far, far behind her.

FAMILIAR

Spoiler


Borris.png.50cc21a9e666f1faee6aa1e7d9ea6c6e.pngElora's familiar, affectionately referred to as "Borris", is a small assembly of misshapen magnetic stones. Although their relationship was rocky at first, they soon started to become close companions. Both share a determined spirit, expressed in opposing ways. While Elora tends to be more spontaneous, Borris seems grounded in his demeanor.

It is not uncommon for this little dude to be found scuttling or rolling around in search of loot -- especially crumbs. He loves to consume whatever spare morsels fall from the hands of players above.

I could always rely on Liam until he moved away for university. He was the only one who didn't give up on me no matter how much I screwed up. Now that I'm stuck here, I can only hope that he has. I don't want to be a distraction to his studies or the destruction of his success.

Freyd has this thing about him that makes me feel like I can't let him down. His belief in me succeeding is honestly almost as stressful as it is reassuring. I'm worried that one day he'll realize I'm a lost cause, and that I'm not capable of becoming even half as good a player as he is. There isn't any way he'd be able to read this, is there?

 

Sinbad_full.747956.jpg.da3f32f56677817ca859007a09238512.jpgJackpot: Acquaintance

So far he seems like a half-decent guy. I wish he would have a little bit more of a back-bone and own up to the fact that he enjoys hanging out with me.

I feel sorry for Warren. It seems like he tries really hard but has trouble finding things to show for his effort. Hopefully he'll have better luck advocating for himself in the future. 

 

 

Tsurumaru-Kuninaga-WT4yxwmlI-b.jpg.6a3652d021e746bd1211049cd6fd90d6.jpgKiluia: Buddy

Didn't he promise me that he would cook me a mint dessert? He seems confident enough to have perfected his culinary skills by now. Maybe he's just been distracted with other things. 

 

1718061095_Asirpa_full.2302811copy.png.9ccbb5d0793ba5b9c55cc2264af8edc9.pngAsmura: Acquaintance 

Everyone seems to worry about her because she's a kid, but I think she can probably handle herself. After all, she hasn't been killed here yet. 

 

 

Gudako_full.2506351.png.00040e41225bf24497d23e663d169306.pngVie: Acquaintance

Vie is one of those people who cares about Asmura too much. She's basically a helicopter mom. Probably just misplaces her concern because she has trouble dealing with her own problems.

Katoka is nice but seems really unsure of her potential. I think she needs to learn how to stick up for herself when other people won't be around to help her. I know that she can handle a fight, but I don't think she realizes that that same confidence can apply to other areas of her life.

A sage-tinted silver spear with a long and twisted staff resembling vines.
