Elise "Ellie" Hart
╚══════════════╝
"I just want to know all there is to know."
[ Age 18 | Height 5'4 | Caucasion | Pronouns She/Her | Weight 118 lbs.
[Inquisitive]
APPEARANCE
"Looks? Do they really matter? I guess I'm not ugly, if that answers your question."
Elise isn't very tall, standing at 5 feet 4 inches. She has a thin frame, and doesn't seem to have much muscle to her. She has straight long, brown hair that hangs loosely down her back. Her eyes are a deep blue, piercing and curious. She has sharp features in her face, with defined cheek bones and jaw. She isn't exactly what anyone would call curvy, and most people might call her a plain sort of pretty.
When it comes to style, Ellie will wear whatever's comfortable. A pair of jeans, a t-shirt, maybe a sweater while in her room where she blasts the AC all seasons. However her clothing is never baggy or trashy. It fits her well, it just doesn't stand out as a fashion piece. She does tend to accessorize though, often wearing a jacket or long sleeve shirt over her t-shirts.

PSYCHOLOGY
"Some people call me nosy, I say I'm just smart."
MAIN GOAL ⫻ Ellie loves to learn, and wants to be a college professor some day. She also has aspirations to be an author.
WHAT THEY WANT OUT OF THE COVEN ⫻ More information. There's a vast amount of things she wants to learn about the supernatural. Where better to learn than a place where people have these strange abilities.
PHILOSOPHY ⫻ Everything is a puzzle to be solved.
SECRETS ⫻ She hides away her abusive past. She also hides a desire to be liked. She knows she isn't well liked, but doesn't really understand what she's doing wrong.
SEXUALITY ⫻ Pansexual
FEARS ⫻ The unknown. Committment. Her Parents. Total Isolation. Tight places. Strangulation.
REPUTATION ⫻ Ellie has a reputation as an insufferable know-it-all in the coven. She often is seen reading, but when talking she just spouts facts and annoys people. She has a condescending tone when giving out facts, talking to people as if they should have known this all along. She is also known as the Hart Slave Girl.
FLAWS ⫻ She gets too focused on discovering new things. She often has trouble associating with people, stating facts and "did you knows" far more than any meaningful conversation. She hates going into public, and the Coven is easily the largest group she's willingly been a part of. She is distant and can appear cold to those who are not close to her, and there aren't many who are close to her.

BACKSTORY
"I really don't like thinking about the past. Unless you mean history, I could go on for days about the social norms of ancient cultures. Interested?"
Ellie was born 18 years ago to Michael Hart and Isabelle Hart. Unfortunately for Ellie, her parents were not mentally stable. One might even use the word insane. The first few years of her life were normal enough, but when she began to walk and talk, things changed. She was basically a slave to her parents who would boss her around, control her, and keep her from going outside. She found solace in reading, when she had the chance. She had a few books scattered around her small room.
Ellie was ecstatic when she got to go to school. First Grade, she'd spend as much time as she could in the library. She would even purposely get in trouble during the day to get put in detention. It was a lot better than going home. She'd be punished for detention by being thrown into a closet for extended amounts of time. Her life went in this way for a while. Until seventh grade.
Ellie did a pretty good job hiding her bad home life, of course her parents helped by giving her nice looking clothes for school. What stood out for Ellie's life in 7th grade, was she finally made an actual friend. Her name was Ashley Botein, and she was an outgoing sweet girl. She actually talked to Ellie during lunch, which all Ellie was used to was name-calling. Ashley protected Ellie at school, scaring off the bullies with her spunk. She was curious though why Ellie never got to come and hang out at her house though, or vice versa. Ellie would always simply claim to be busy.
In ninth grade, Ellie was pleased to learn that Ashley would be at the same school, and most of the same classes. The two would talk about books, and Ellie would prattle on about all the things she'd learned. Ashley would patiently listen and smile as her friend rambled on. Ellie discovered that she liked Ashley more than usual. She had had several crushes on boys through-out her life, but now she was falling in love with her best friend. She and Ashley began dating in tenth grade, when the two were fifteen. Ellie continued her trouble making ways in the classroom to get detention, but this baffled teachers who saw her perfect grades as well. Any time that her parents were called in for a meeting, everything seemed normal.
After being friends for 5 years, and beginning to date, Ashley decided it was time to find out why Ellie was always in detention and too busy to have company. Ashley followed her home. She got to the door, knocked, and was quickly greeted by Michael.
"I don't want your girlscout cookies kid, get outta here."
Ashley explained that she wasn't here to sell anything, and that she just wanted to talk to Ellie. Michael's expression got serious as he told her she was busy, so Ashley had better get. He returned inside where Ellie was cooking dinner and slapped her, telling her she never should have brought a friend over, that she wasn't allowed to have friends. Ellie decided to stand up and insist that she needed friends. She needed Ashley. Her father responded by pushing her back into the familiar dark closet.
Now, growing up, Ellie had her good days with her family. There were occasional ups to offset the usual downs, but that changed the next day. This is when Ellie's parents proved their insanity, and when Ellie awakened. Ashley sneaked over to Ellie's house after school, and climbed into her room window. She could see her studying at her desk. Ellie hushedly tried to warn Ashley to leave, but it was too late. Michael and Isabella heard the noise. Michael burst into the room, and shouted what sounded like a battle-cry when he saw Ashley.
"I TOLD YOU NOT TO COME HERE!"
Isabelle was right behind him, adding her screeching to the noise. Ashley tried to make for the window, but Michael grabbed her long black hair and pulled. He grabbed her by the throat and slowly strangled her to death. Ellie tried to stop him but her large mother held her back, smacking her in the face and neck while her father took the life out of her girlfriend. After Ashley lay motionless, he turned on Ellie, fire in his eyes. Before he could make a move, Ellie was gone.
Ellie was suddenly in the library at school. She sobbed loudly, screaming and hitting the floor. A janitor came in and learned what happened between her sobs. The police were called, and her parents were arrested. She claimed that she ran to the library, not admitting that she seemingly teleported there. After the incident, Ellie was put into a foster home. She learned that being able to teleport wasn't her only ability she gained that awful day, but also the ability to see places she's been before in her mind from a distance.
The rest of her High school days were uneventful. She was much quieter now and would not respond to well meaning students who attempted to make friends with her. She pushed away from them, and even kept her new parents at a distant, despite them being pleasant people. She graduated when she was 17, got a job at a convenience store, and soon moved out. Her foster-parents helped her with the down payment on a small apartment. After everything she had gone through, Ellie still loved to escape into books and information. She learned of the coven, and joined, after careful consideration.

Well that took longer than I thought. Hope she works!
