THE BASICS!  

FULL NAME: Elsa Wren Llewelyn
NICKNAMES: Zero so far
AGE: 20

APPEARANCE! 
What I'm thinking is simple; I'll sell apples and ice water at the temple

Els is short, barely over five foot, with a mop of curly brown hair. Her hands and feet are very small, even for someone of her stature and she is, by all accounts, adorable. She even gets dimples, it's so sweet. She's cold a lot of the time so she wears a lot of knitwear. Since she's wearing second hand, bulky, too large sweaters and cardigans, this means she looks even smaller. THANKS UNIVERSE whatever whatever.

Of course it's very hard to be taken seriously when you're a total cutie pie. It's even harder when you wear your emotions on your sleeve the way she does. Her body language when she's flustered is very easy to read and her usual facial is expression is 'worried'. She always feels like she's forgetting something important. She's big into bodily contact too. Not obviously so, but if she's sitting next to someone she likes she sits right up against them, so they're touching, pats people's arms a lot- she likes to be reminded that she's still solid every now and again. She's naturally very cold to the touch, though.

A coiled spring of nervous energy, when she's in a group she tends to focus with laser intensity at whoever is doing the talking. Or, she appears to, anyway. Thanks to a combination of dark eyes, a naturally intense stare and a rabbit in headlight's ability to remain perfectly still when being spoken to, she's pretty good at seeming interested and focused. In reality, there's a good chance she's stopped listening and is busy ripping herself to shreds internally for losing the thread of the conversation. When talking herself, she moves around nearly constantly, making wide gestures, raising her eyebrows and almost vibrating on the spot if she has to stay still. She goes so quickly from 0-60 and back again in conversation that it can sometimes be hard to keep up with her, even if she doesn't say all that much.

She smells like old books. Sorry. Sorry.


PERSONALITY! 
I won't make trouble; I'll pull the devil down with me one way or another

Elsa is quiet a lot of the time. Quite often people just don't realise she's there. On first impression she just seems like a quiet kid, rather than the ball of nervous energy she actually is. She's small and socially awkward with anxiety issues. A lot of things fluster her, from making mistakes to outright human interaction, some days. She's probably not the best candidate for medical student, but she's just so darn determined. Also caring. She's extremely caring when it comes to other people. She is one of those people who will look after anyone who walks into their path. She's been known to go out of her way to give directions to the elderly and spend a good deal of time hunting out lost children. Her friends get the full benefit of her caring nature - she'll be at their elbows at a moment's notice if they need something.

For all of her anxieties about people, she does like them. She definitely wants to be one of those super popular people who can hold parties all the time and go clubbing and what have you. But it's just not possible. She's a homebody, first and foremost.

Elsa has a bad memory. As in, extremely bad. There are entire sections of her childhood she can't remember very well or at all. She usually doesn't worry too much about it. Oddly enough, she remembers a great deal of what she's read and she's pretty informed about the history of the local area. She's not Scottish, but she used to come to the castle a lot as a kid.

It's very easy to overrule her since she's so mild and quiet, but if she thinks she's being made a fool of or manipulated or anything like that she can lose her temper. It involves a lot of flustered shouting and then retreating. Retreating far away. Generally speaking she only sticks up for herself after her patience has been completely run dry. She doesn't stick up for her friends at all, preferring to support them privately. The Llew part of Llewelyn means 'lion' but nobody who knows her would describe her as lion hearted. It's difficult to get her into a fight because she's so good at sucking stuff up and dealing.

She doesn't feel much physically - she's got a ridiculously high pain tolerance on top of everything else. About the only thing she is sensitive to is heat and she loves it. Boiling hot baths, wearing wool clothes in the middle of summer, getting hugs, all great.

Elsa doesn't say nearly half of what she thinks and when she does say stuff it tends to come out in one sped-up blur of words. Maybe if she just keeps talking nobody will listen or she can talk herself around stuff when she gets stuck on points. It's awkward, she's awkward. Sorry. (Sorry).
