P E R S O N A L I T YStern and motherly are probably the best ways to describe Elmyra. That is, towards those whom she is favorable to. With a cool-headed firmness, she often tries to keep control of her surroundings and those in it with smooth voice and words just biting enough, just kind enough, to coax people into the mindset she wants. Her persona of manipulation wavers as she deals with those she deems lesser than herself, falling from cool to frigid as ice, snapping as a winter's night. She has little patience for humans and the other supernatural beings when they make a nuisance of themselves to her. She is hell in female form when she is made to act on behalf of the Valenwoods, a rage that comes like a rushing avalanche, as anger lurks under the pristine front of level-headed magic woman that bursts free on occasion. She contains this anger mostly to keep trust and influence over others outside her sphere of care, but there are instances where she feels it is deserved. She can be petty, and she loves to seek revenge.
A B I L I T I E SA particularly powerful witch, Elmyra is gifted and known best among her inner circles for her skills in curses and hexes, gaining a reputation for herself as one who has negatively impacted the lives of those who live in Harvester County. Her skills can range from a simple bad luck charm that can last for a short period of time, to influencing someone's health to the point they grow incredibly sick and perish within hours of her completing her spellwork. All of this magic, depending on the severity of it, takes time, patience, and great energy, all of which she wields with the mastery of one who has studied and practiced for decades. She can prepare jinxes to cast on people, which often she does if she ever ventures beyond the Witch Woods. Most of her motivation is personal or influenced by the will of the Coven. Her loyalty is strictly with the Valenwood Coven, and she cares little for the lives of humans and little more for the lives of fellow supernaturals, seeing witches as superior and only tolerating the newfound alliances as it was the will of the Coven.
H I S T O R YMoreno is a name that has long since been associated with the Valenwood Coven. For many generations, the Moreno's have provided their services and loyalty to the Coven and stuck fondly to the traditionalist ways of witchcraft. Their seclusion from the human world has made it very simple to teach their children, grandchildren, and so forth their ideas on all aspects of life, keeping close knit and controlling their offspring in order to see them being raised up in the direction they so please. All who have joined among the Coven, as many of them do, share skills in curses to varying degree. Elmyra was one of few children to have shown advanced magic at a young age, impressing her family to the point that she was inducted into the Coven's service as young as twelve years old. Elmyra served the Coven well, taking a kind of sadistic delight and pride in granting wicked torment upon enemies of the Valenwoods, enacting whatever was asked of her dutifully. She was and continues to be a trust-worthy member of the Coven, one held in high regard for her ability to act with little hesitation and with great force and skill. However, now with alliances that she and her family find unfavorable, tensions have risen and loyalties have begun to slip.
Elmyra finds herself conflicted by her duty to family and to the Coven.
