Ellen is no astounding beauty. Although pretty, her features sit in a natural frown that deters some. Baby fat still clings stubbornly to her cheeks, making her look younger than she is. A light complexion blanketed with freckles provides a distinct contrast on smooth skin, with a seemingly perpetual sunburn kissing her nose and cheeks. Long red hair frames her round features, complimenting mossy hazel eyes with honey colored coronas. Her locks shine with all manner of copper and auburn hues, usually wild and out of control, spilling down her back in curls and waves. She often keeps it pulled out of her face with a variety of braids around her ears and crown, decorated with wooden beads and small trinkets from nature.
Standing 5'2" and weighing in at an intimidating 90 pounds, give or take five, Ellen's diminutive size does little to slow her down. Though seemingly dainty with the lighter bones of an Avriel, she does not shy from hard work and has the firm, toned muscle to prove it, though her physic is softened by the curves of her hips, breasts, and the sway of her step. Both hands and feet are slender and long, each digit ending in a hard, talon-like nail that she keeps trimmed to a more human length and appearance. They quickly become sharp when left unattended, and could be used in self-defense if she had the mind to. When longer, it is impossible to wear closed shoes or gloves. She is particularly light and quick in her movements, often fidgeting subtly whether standing or sitting as if she might take flight without a moment's notice.
Her most striking feature is the pair of wings dominating her back. Similar in color to her hair, the feathers are a mixture of browns, auburn, reds, and other russet hues, with sooty speckles here and there. Closer to her shoulders is a distinct splash of gray-blue along her lesser covert feathers. With a span of approximately 15 feet, they are sleek and angular. Built more for speed and maneuverability than strength, their shape is akin to that of a falcon. They taper with sharper angles as opposed to having the rounder belly of a hawk or eagle, with the tips of the longest primaries dragging the ground behind her.

A good person at heart, Ellen'wyn simply struggles with her dual nature. Still young and inexperienced, she has yet to discover her place in the world. Wanting to be "normal", the mixed-blood battles low self-esteem, self-loathing, and a rollercoaster of depression. Being raised as any Sevir would, her mother attempted to instill in her a spiritual connection to everything around her, and schooled her in meditation to center herself and curb the angry confusion that sometimes boils just below the surface.
She is deeply ashamed of her emotional or angry outbursts, though rarer now that she is grown, wanting nothing more than to be more grounded like the people that raised her. Ellen yearns to make her mother proud, and in doing so shuns the other half of herself, though this creates a internal battle with the baser instincts and desires she does not yet understand. Ellen is drawn to the sky in a way that frustrates and scares her. She tries to reject these feelings out of fear that she might somehow become less of a Sev'ryn, but is finding it more impossible to do so as the cycles pass.
Virtues
Curious: Ellen loves to learn. Different things, places, or the unknown are a temptation that she can't seem to resist, and Ellen's busy mind loves the challenge that comes with all manner of newness.
Dedicated: Throwing in the towel isn't something that comes easy. Giving up never paid off, especially in Ellen's life, and she's used to working harder to prove herself and finish the tasks at hand. Living with what seems to be a continuous disadvantage compared to her peers, notably during her former years in Desnind, Ellen'wyn has had to overcome racism and adversities since the day she was born. It makes the payoff for success that much sweeter.
Bold: It seems that most of Ellen's fears have been focused on cultural and social issues related to her mixed nature, leaving little energy left to be afraid of anything else. Not only that, but her restless nature makes it hard to stand on the sidelines. She finds herself diving headfirst into turbulent waters, not always on purpose but also for moral reasons. Being a generally kind person, Ellen'wyn inadvertently finds herself thrust between the oppressed and their oppressors.
Adventurous: An accumulation of several of her better qualities, Ellen is a true lover for adventure from head to toe. Living in Desnind for most of her life left a lot to be desired; not only because of her inability to truly fit in, but even her Sev'ryn half begged to be released upon the vast world, spurred by years of stories from the Elders. An overwhelming disdain for boredom has her frequently seeking new experiences, people, and places. She suffers at the hand of a restless soul consumed by wanderlust, finding it hard to stay stationary for too long.
Flaws
Reckless: Ellen's inability to be satisfied sometimes drives her to do nonsensical things. She is the type to poke the bear while it's sleeping, so to speak, and while she revels in most of the challenges that it brings, has found herself biting off more than she can chew on more than one occasion. This quality is likely a byproduct of her intense desire to prove herself.
Stubborn: Arguments are hard-won with Ellen, and convincing her to change her mind when it's already been made is a battle. She can rarely be worn down with a verbal round of fists, and although she can see reason, is naive and still immature. Sometimes just on principal she will refuse to change her opinion or actions. One might wonder if she's actually part bull instead of bird.
Feisty: Although raised like a Sev'ryn in Desnind, and no matter how much she might hate it, it has been impossible for Ellen to escape her Avriel nature completely. She feels all emotion strongly and with her entire being, and although she struggles with her identity and image, has high standards and takes insult easily. Ellen is defensive, and in attempting to prove herself in all things, can be very haughty.
Blunt: She struggles with the finer subtlies of social graces despite all of her mother's efforts. Her somewhat harsh demeaner seems yet another byproduct of her father's blood running through her veins. Although Ellen puts forth the effort to play nice, she has a naturally sharp tongue to match her quick wit.
Nosy: Curiosity killed the cat, but Ellen has so far escaped trouble while constantly weaseling her way into things she shouldn't. Drilling people and strangers with questions isn't beyond her, or simply wandering into scenes and places where she doesn't belong.

Ellen'wyn came into the world after a long period of misfortune at the expense of her mother. Marro'wyn had always been a proud example of the Sev'ryn people. Blessed by Moseke, the healer served her people faithfully and was an unwavering steward to her homeland, battling back remaining areas of blight and seeking to bring life back to the region. A very spiritual woman, she began having dreams of her familiar not long after maturity. Like so many others before her, she forged out in search of her other half. It was a long journey north, but they found each other near Volanta, and have never been apart since. The trek back was equally challenging but blissful in the company of her soulmate, until the Hot Lands reared its head, marking a temporary end to their journey back to Desnind.
Set upon by a large group slavers en route to market, Marro'wyn was captured and stripped of her freedom. She spent six uncertain months passing between several different masters of varying tolerability before finding herself in Athart. It was here that her life, although she never could have imaged it being possible, became unbearable. An Avriel by the name of Varydyn took up ownership of the young Sev'ryn and quickly fell in lust with her fierce beauty and demeanor. He strove to break her and make her his. After almost two arcs of physical and mental abuse, Marro'wyn's familiar managed to take physical form for the first time and help her escape. Their struggle at the hands of the cruel Avriel had stunted their abilities and dramatically slowed the progressive powers of their bond, as merely supporting his companion's will to live took most of the spirit's energy.
When finally they returned to Desnind, Marro'wyn was able to begin healing with the help of her people and her faith. As life started to have purpose again, everything shifted and was stripped away once more. Discovering that she was pregnant with the Avriel abomination's spawn filled her with a grief and rage she hadn't yet experienced in life, and she was determined to end the pregnancy altogether if not for the disappointment of a few elder women whom she respected. It was decided that she wound carry the creature to term and give it away, though Marro'wyn often dreamed in the beginning of throwing it into the sea.
As the pregnancy progressed, her demeanor changed incrementally. This final major shift in her life seemed to align the unfortunate events of her formative years into perspective. She understood that the child she carried was innocent undeserving of contempt, and suddenly there was doubt and guilt in her heart. When the mixed-blood was finally born, Marro'wyn saw her life in a new light--that of her child. So overwhelmed with the uncontrollable love she felt for the small thing in her arms, she refused to give her up. Promptly naming her Ellen'wyn, sharing part her own namesake to further claim the child wholly as her own, she vowed to take her revenge on the father by raising the child out of love. Ellen was to be a Sev'ryn through and through, and to serve on the side of life as opposed to death and misery.
Growing up, Ellen's early arcs were fruitful and happy. She learned as any Sevir child would and was a precocious creature, full of energy. It wasn't until closer to her tenth arc that she began to notice important differences between herself and her peers. The physical variance had always been there, but her mother's reassurances had always been enough to keep them out of her mind. It wasn't until her moods began to change erratically that Ellen started to feel like an outsider. While the other children progressed into their teens as productive members of society, the mixed-blood became resigned, angry, and confused.
Unknown to her, she was beginning to experience an average Avriel puberty. Although not as intense and violent as a pure blood, the next few arcs ostracized her somewhat from her people, for she had a hard time controlling herself and was victim of a short fuse, prone to fits of rage at the drop of a hat. It wasn't uncommon for Ellen to tear apart her mother's treehouse and disappear for a few trials before returning, figurative tail between her legs and filled with shame.
As time passed, these mood swings became fewer. Her mother was a constant supporter, patient and ready to give council. She taught Ellen how to meditate in order to center herself and calm the inner turmoil. Eventually, the violence became almost nonexistent. Still, the damage was done and the young woman couldn't seem to find her place anymore. She felt the uncertainty of many of her people dragging her down, no matter how hard she tried to be normal. Ellen knew that time could heal many wounds, and so decided to leave Desnind behind in order to grow as a person and find herself, with the intent of returning one day as a better woman.
She crossed the Ta'langean Erọim to Strosdyn, but only spent a few brief trials there. When her ship landed in Ne'haer, Ellen was dazzled by the culture and people. The mixed-blood spent some time in the city, recuperating from her journey across the ocean and finding her bearings before she set off along the southern coast of the new continent. She next arrived in Foster's Landing, tired and uncertain of the large port, but curious nonetheless. The politics quickly proved themselves to be harsh, and the government merciless. Ellen was quickly targeted not for her Avriel bloodlines, but her Sev'ryn heritage instead. Being a spiritual people, the mixed-blood was an instant suspect as an Immortal sympathizer and was stripped of anything relating to Moseke; specifically the pendant given to her by her mother upon leaving Desnind.
Her extended stay in the greater Eztos area was tumultuous to say the least. Her first acquaintance, Gangui, was a self-proclaimed patriot of the people, and whisked her along on several dangerous adventures that ultimately led up to him re-acquiring her confiscated necklace. The two had developed a close bond, which Ellen now attributes to her prior naivete, since that relationship came to a screeching halt when the man suddenly tried to press her into the role of a mother and wife. Despite her resistance to his affections she was inadvertently pulled into his war between the Sons of Justice and the Al'Angyryl. Initially Ellen was torn between them and the kinship she felt for the Al'Angyryl's leader; another half-blooded Avriel. But when he showed his true colors and murdered her childhood friend Niv, she realized all the mistakes she'd made in judging the characters of those around her.
Heartbroken and angry, yet certainly wiser, she is now returning to Desnind to sort out her thoughts and seek council among her people. Her constant nightmares from misadventures of the recent past have only been interrupted by increasingly frequent dreams of places that are both foreign and familiar. A strange voice haunts these dreams, goading and calling to her. She feels a sense of urgent restlessness now, and hopes that going home may provide her with some answers.

Housing
Ellen is living with her mother again after returning to Desnind, though more often than not she is elsewhere roaming, hunting, or exploring. The treehouse is her childhood home, relatively small, but tidy and comfortable. It is decorated with trinkets from nature that Ellen has collected for her mother over the arcs, pelts and hides to section of living and sleeping areas, and a small porch wraps around the abode.
Prized Possession
A small wooden pendant on a thin leather band, its face carved in the design of an oak tree; a symbol of Moseke and Desnind. Given by her mother before she crossed the Ta'langean Erọim as a reminder and good luck charm, it keeps Ellen motivated to someday return home after bettering herself and growing as a woman. She never removes it, and the piece is immensely comforting. It stays tucked inside her shirt, safely out of sight.
Upon entering Foster's Landing in Vhalar 717, the pendant was confiscated by local military as Immortal paraphernalia. As of Zi'da 717, it has since been returned.
