PERSONALITY

Eli is a very reserved person, and doesn't trust others easily. She's especially wary of other supernaturals. She's never gone out of her way to interact with others, and often avoids human contact altogether. Because of more than one tragedy in her past, Eli has never been open to people, and hardly ever shows how she really feels around others. She's kind of a chameleon in this sense; she observes the behavior of others around her and mimics it, so she blends in more with the crowd. She's even gone to the extent of creating several elaborate back stories so she doesn't have to explain her true past. Eli has only ever revealed her past to one person, and that didn't turn out so well.

Because of the trauma of her parents' murders, as well as her own crime of fratricide, Eli has nervous breakdowns as well as panic attacks. The breakdowns happen when she's alone, because she holds everything in until she can actually get to a 'safe' location to let her emotions out. They panic attacks on the other hand, tend to happen at the least  opportune moments. They can sometimes occur when she's alone, but they are more likely to happen when she's  in large crowds of people. The only thing that keeps her from losing control is the thought that what she did to her brother could happen again, and to more people. She thinks of those peoples' families, and that's enough to keep her stable in those situations.

HISTORY

Elysia was born in a small town in Western Pennsylvania on December 28th. She was the youngest of the two children Jonathan and Echo Reinhardt had. She had a fairly normal infancy and early childhood, They lived in an area of town where no children her age live, though, so she and her brother, Gabriel, would wander off into the woods and play from the early morning until they had to come back home in the evening. Unfortunately, being nine years her senior, Gabriel eventually stopped wanting to play with his sister and started getting into sports and hung out with other boys his age. As he went into high school and eventually college, Eli was left with very little time with her brother. When he left home for university, she had even less to do. She never made friends in school, even then, because she was 'different' than the other children. She slowly started to get into reading books, and found that she loved fantasy books. Her favorite series, 'The Lord of the Rings', even got her interested into languages.

In all, Elysia's life seemed like it'd turn out pretty, despite her reclusive behavior. That, however, was certainly not the case. Around the age of 11, Eli 's life took a strange turn. She'd come home from school on some days and find that her father was having an argument over the phone with someone in a language she didn't know. After about a week of this, the worst incident of her life happened. It was in the middle of the night when there was loud crash of glass breaking on the first floor of her house. That wasn't what woke her up. The screams of her parents were what sent her jumping out of bed. She head downstairs only to find a man covered in hair standing behind a counter, covered in blood. When he finally noticed her, Eli tried to let a scream, a shout; anything. The only sound she could make was a squeak before he attacked her too.

When Eli finally came to, She was in a hospital bed and connected to several machines. A neighbor had heard what happened that night and when they came over, they found Elysia's parents dead and her nearly dead from her wounds. The ambulance was called, and one thing led to another. She was evaluated by several psychologist who said nothing 'appeared' to be wrong with her, aside from the fact that she recovered abnormally fast from her wounds. Her brother dropped out from college to come and take care of her.  Eli thought the worst was over for her... until the next full moon came around.

She didn't even know what was happening until it was too late. She and her brother had been playing a game, and... Well she doesn't even remember what had happened, but she does remember the look on her brother's face when she tore his throat out with her own claws. After the ordeal was over, she stabilized herself enough to call the police and it was only while she was waiting for them to come that she realized she'd have to lie about what happened. Swallowing her fear, she did exactly that, but felt that even doing that, forever changed her.

Some time after that, she was placed with a distant aunt and uncle whom she barely knew, and grew up there. She did research on what was happening on the full moon, and in order to keep herself under control, kept reliving what she did to her brother and what would happen if she ever lost control again. Those memories where the only things keeping her from losing it, and she knew it. She was always afraid of what was stirring inside her, every moment of every day. She started reading those fantasy novels she loved so much to escape the horrors of what she lived with every day. Elysia eventually grew up, and moved as far away as she could from her aunt and uncle. She moved to California; more specifically Beacon Hills. She's always been looking out for his scent though; the scent of the alpha that destroyed her entire life.
