Nicknames
Elaine.
Role
Everett Sibling 6.
Age
Fifteen.
Gender
Female.
Physical Description
Elaine would consider herself an ordinary girl, with ordinary features. She is a fifteen year old girl of average height and weight. Her wavy brown hair falls down to the middle of her back. She wears her bangs short, letting them fall just above her eyes. Even after her continual time spent outdoors, her skin remains light complected with a hint of pink undertones. Her most distinctive feature would be her eyes. Bright, vibrant, and brown in color. A color that she shares with her mother.
Would she say she was beautiful? It wouldn't matter if she did. Beauty is wasted on a world where love does not exist.
Personality
As a child, Elaine was a free spirit. She was talented, bold, and courageous. Her mother loved that about her and fed into those traits. Her mother taught her to always go after her dreams, no matter where they led her. At the time she didn't understand that her family was different. She assumed that all mothers hugged and kissed their children. She thought it was normal to tell your family that you loved them. So, when the Regulators came to take her mother away she couldn't understand why.
Elaine's free spirit disappeared when her mother died. She soon learned to mask her emotions and to play her role in society. She seemed to be the ideal citizen. She was sensible, bright, and seemingly obedient. She threw her focus on music to fill the huge void in her life. She would perform any music she could get her hands on. She hated the government approved music, but memorized it anyways. At the time, something was better than nothing. One day she caught her sibling listening to illegal music, and for the first time in years she wasn't so sensible. She started to download and listen to illegal music. The music evoked emotions she hadn't felt in years. She knew she was doing something wrong, but didn't understand how something so beautiful could be so wrong.
Thoughts About the Cure
Elaine is well aware what she is expected to believe, but she loved her mother dearly. She couldn't understand how her feelings towards her family could be wrong. She does agree that falling in love is more trouble than it is worth. Love makes people do crazy things, and she is far too sensible to ever let herself get mixed up in that.
Skill(s)/Abilities
Elaine has put all her time and focus into music. She loves to sing and she plays the guitar. She has memorized and performed all of the government approved songs, even though she despises them. Recently, though, she has found a way to listen to illegal music.
History
Elaine was very young when their mother died, but she remembers her vividly. She remembers dancing and singing in the house. She also remembers her mother reading her a story before bed every night. The stories were nothing like the ones in the history books. They were beautiful stories of love and attraction. One story in particular always stood out to Elaine. The story was her mother's favorite love story, and it was also how Elaine got the name 'Helena'. The story was of Helen of Troy, a Queen who fled with a peasant she was in love with. A whole war waged because of her, and she became known as 'the face that launched a thousand ships'. At the time the story seemed terribly romantic, but now Elaine saw it as just another reason why love was unreasonable.
The Deliria
She sees a glimpse of Skylar being led home by Makota sibling 4 one day, and ends up admiring him. She doesn't understand her feelings, but refuses to let curiosity gets the best of her.
Relationships
Being the youngest of six, she has a decent relationship with her entire family, but she often left behind because she is 'too young'. She is very observant of her family and often sees things she isn't suppose to see. For instance, when Skylar was out after curfew and walked home with a boy.
