PERSONALITY
Despite her early-in-life insecurities about her powers, Elsa has come to embrace her gifts and learn to control them. She is still learning on this front, and it is quite common to see her struggling with them every now and again-- something she is easily embarrassed over. Rather than show her weaknesses, Elsa is prone to shutting people out of her life or locking herself away for short periods of time (a byproduct of how she grew up and learned to cope). In more ways than one she could be considered a ticking time bomb. She strives hard to be the ideal queen her people deserve, and worries endlessly over the impression she gives off. She never wants to be seen as the monster she still secretly thinks she is, or can be.
Her tendency to push people out aside, she is still very loving and caring. She would do nearly anything for her sister, whom she loves more than anyone (including herself). In contrast to her sister's bubbly nature, Elsa is definitely more laid back and observant. She has a quiet intelligence that is only brought forward when needed rather than flaunted about for all to see. This is due in part to her down-to-earth and peaceful nature, and part to her hidden insecurities. She does not like to be judged, and yet she feels that everything she does-- especially using her powers-- is.
A side most people don't get to see in the Snow Queen is how artistic and playful she is. Under all the uptight airs is still a young woman who loves to impress and entertain her little sister. She wants desperately to be the best role model for Anna and to show her that regardless of their beginnings, the two will be close again. Although her powers are based in snow and ice, and she has been known to come off cold, the Queen of Arendelle continues to have a warm and open heart.

Strengths and Weaknesses of Her Abilities:
"Elsa is most iconic being the Snow Queen, and as such, she has complete and total control over cold temperatures and the element of ice and snow (also known as cryokinesis and frigokinesis). With her abilities (that she was apparently born with), Elsa can conjure up and shape various things from snow flurries to blizzards. Most of her powers are unleashed via her hands, and controlled by her emotions. If she's happy and at peace, her powers would be under her complete control, but if she's stressed or fearful, she will lose control and cause great harm to those around her.
In the beginning, she was able to turn the entire castle's ball room into a winter wonderland. She is also able to create enchanted snowmen (both large and small), ice structures such as her ice palace, deadly blizzards as mentioned above, and more. She's also been seen being able to move ice structures at will. It also appears that her control extends to almost all forms of winter weather, as she was able to create a snow cloud for Olaf at the end of the film, and manipulate windstreams to some degree. Interestingly, it would seem that nearly her entire being can conjure ice and snow, as seen when she flees across the fjord - the water immediately starts to freeze the moment her foot touches it.
It also appears that her powers depend on which emotion she feels; if she is in sorrow, all the snow particles in the air stand still as if in a state of suspended animation, while anger creates a similar effect to fear but with an offensive direction instead of chaotic versatility. It is shown that if she casts her magic on a living being directly, the victim will not only freeze to death, but slowly transform into an ice statue, and the process only hastens if they are in cold conditions. While the curse can be removed if the magic affects the mind, the heart is the most vulnerable and if this is the case, the victim can only be cured by an act of true love. While Elsa had thought she cannot undo the frosty effects she creates, it is revealed that that she is capable of removing such curses through her love for others, as it is the warmest emotion of all. She can use her powers to create precise effects other than manifesting ice and snow, as she made several color changes to her and Anna's dresses, using flowers that were in the room at the time, and integrated them into their gowns using crystalline ice. She was also shown to create ice sculptures out of thin air and reshape them in any way she wanted."

RECENT HISTORY
Elsa grew up as an isolated child, emotionally abused by her parents and ostracized from her kingdom because she was different. She was taught to fear her powers by her parents from a very young age. It was not until she was 22 that her parents met an untimely end, and subsequently freed the now Queen. Unused to so many people, and after her sister tried to marry a stranger, Elsa accidentally revealed her powers. She fled from her kingdom, afraid and ashamed - effectively freezing over the entire city. Thanks to her sister Anna, she was able to find peace with herself and her powers, and returned home to rule for two years in peace as an independent Queen. Now 24, her advisers are insisting that she marry-- for the kingdom needs an heir and her sister Anna is already married! Rebelling once again, the Queen of Arendelle has run off once more from her fears and taken shelter in a strange little town where she heard she could be her true self without being judged.
She has opened up an ice cream shop in the heart of town and resides in the studio apartment above it on Main Street. Knowing that she is across an ocean in a remote location, she is confident that no one from home could possibly find her here. In this new town she is testing out what it is like to live among regular people with powers. She has decided to take a gamble and be open and honest about who she is for once in her life. If she has to go home and marry for the kingdom, she wants to at least experience what life is like being herself, by herself first. Away from the palace, her sister, and the weight of her crown... she is excited to see who she can be now that she is finally free to be herself.

Theme Song
"Let it Go"
The snow glows white on the mountain tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom of isolation,
And it looks like I'm the queen.
The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried!
Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good girl you always have to be
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
Well, now they know!
Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn away and slam the door!
I don't care
What they're going to say
Let the storm rage on,
The cold never bothered me anyway!
It's funny how some distance
Makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me
Can't get to me at all!
It's time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me I'm free!
Let it go, let it go
I am one with the wind and sky
Let it go, let it go
You'll never see me cry!
Here I stand
And here I'll stay
Let the storm rage on!
My power flurries through the air into the ground
My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast
I'm never going back,
The past is in the past!
Let it go, let it go
When I'll rise like the break of dawn
Let it go, let it go
That perfect girl is gone!
Here I stand
In the light of day
Let the storm rage on,
The cold never bothered me anyway!
