Nickname: Eleanor will answer to just about anything.
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Personality: In most matters, Eleanor is dispassionate and calculating, analyzing details and drawing conclusions rather than relying on emotion or impulse. This objectivity can, at times make it difficult for her to empathize with others, or properly express herself, though she does still try. Despite her usually rather stoic and mature demeanor, Eleanor actually can be rather shy and easily flustered under the right circumstances, partly due to her lack of firsthand experience in the field of socialization. Finally, Eleanor is curious to a fault, and, once a mystery has been presented, is unable to move on until she has found the answer. That isn't to say that she won't drop the conversation if someone really doesn't want to talk about something, but she most certainly won't give up on getting answers.
Crush: It's unlikely, though not entirely impossible, she'll start out with one, but she might develop one later on.
Skills: Put bluntly, Eleanor is brilliant. Between her naturally analytical mind, eidetic memory, and countless hours upon hours of reading in the library there are very few problems she can't figure out, given the required information to do so. She is also highly adaptable. Her lack of physical strength can make it rather difficult to actually correct those problems though, should they need to be resolved through those means.
Other: Eleanor has no surviving family, and doesn't even remember them. From what she is told, her mother died giving birth to her shortly after arriving. What she was not told was that her father was with her, and tried to leave the hotel with the newborn almost immediately afterward, having not yet been there long enough for the poison to have affected him. This was not met with approval. Since then she has been looked after by Margret, a member of the cleaning staff.
The moment Eleanor learned to read, she was off to the library, and hasn't left the place much since. The place does have every book known to man, after all. Of course, the fact that it contains every book known to man means that nearly every one of them refer to the outside. This raised the question as to why no-one ever left the hotel. Clearly there was a world outside that could, and at one point did, support human life, so why were they all here? These questions resulted in half-answers at best, virtually stonewalling any further inquiries. Even questioning Margret proved fruitless, and Eleanor was told to drop the subject. Quite frankly, she was lucky that that was all that happened. Eventually, as she read more, Eleanor realized that they were being kept here by someone or something, for purposes unknown. Unlike many of the others her age who have discovered this truth, Eleanor's main priority is not escape, but rather, finding out who is going to all this trouble and why.
