She is a Chaos magician with heightened psychoempathic senses, possessing the enhanced physiology and revival factors of typical Bees. Elana expresses her Chaos Magic in combat through martial arts of varying styles with temporary Doppelganger summoning. Has some skill in minor handguns, and Blood Magic, but only on a macro, imprecise scale.

She is a Chaos magician with heightened psychoempathic senses, possessing the enhanced physiology and revival factors of typical Bees. Elana expresses her Chaos magic in combat through physical arts of varying styles, from krav maga to capoeira. Has some skill in minor handguns, and Blood magic, but only on a macro, imprecise scale. Her highly sensitive nature has proven versatility in tracking missing persons and pacifying civilians and agents in combat situations, and is a fundamental aspect of working with Chaos, falling into brief fugues from elation to despair when activating sigils or invoking extradimensional doppelgangers.
 
 
Though generally open-minded with a kind temperament, Elana is highly reclusive and self-absorbed from the burden of processing extradimensional emotional energies. Though she would scarcely admit it in person, she relishes the opportunity to experiment with mind-altering substances and therapeutic quackery, or lengthy stays to spas and ashrams, to nurse her sanity.
 
 
Elana loves Greek cuisine after a lengthy research venture in Ikaria, an island known for the incredible longevity of its residents. Her 'callsign' is an obvious reference to the goddess Hestia[https://greekgodsandgoddesses.net/goddesses/hestia/]. Her favourite beverage in the Horned God is Myrrh Ale.

 +
As a practitioner of Chaos Magic, the shift to SWL affected her greatly, especially as doppelgangers, or 'Selves', made their appearance in this reality, multiplying her consciousness across dimensions.
  
 +
It is of multifactional knowledge that Elana has been chaotically altered or intervened with at least twice by other Selves, once when Agartha shifted into its current form with a visible Seed of Life, and twice after a 'successful' undercover mission--advancing her Faction's knowledge over the course of a year, at the expense of depersonalization from long-term isolation and brainwashing.

"Elana Drake", in any given encounter, retains the knowledge and temperament of the Original, but exponential complexities across realities mean that any previous relationships, romantic or companionate, are vague or fractured. Only the whispers of the Buzzing, her handler, and her husband Robert, are constants that she must re-educate herself with, to avoid a psychotic break outside of Gaia's reach to mend.

It is of multifactional knowledge that Elana has been chaotically altered or intervened with at least twice, once when Agartha shifted into its current form with a visible Seed of Life (and thus attuning her to the awareness of innumerable dimensions beyond her own), and a second time after a 'successful' deep undercover mission in an undisclosed location--advancing her Faction's knowledge over the course of a year, at the expense of suffering the behavioral effects of long-term isolation and brainwashing.

Elana is known for taking many pictures, often self portraits--she does this to keep track of her current reality, and to leave a journal for any who may take ''Her'' place.

Elana Drake was previously affiliated with Hollow Earth Consulting, a multifactional agency. She operates either at her Faction's behest or independently, sharing cases with Evelyn DeKorte, a Dragon agent of similar, but differing talents in Chaos Magic and Fist Weapons.

Elana is married to Robert Drake, a cybernetically enhanced marksman.
 
 
Elana Drake was previously affiliated with Hollow Earth Consulting, a multifactional agency. She operates either at her Faction's behest or independently, sharing cases with Evelyn DeKorte, a Dragon agent and fellow Chaos practitioner. She is affiliated with the Templar faction, but has never sought membership with any specific Templar cabal or company within.
 
 
 
Elana lives in a single detached residence with her husband, Robert Drake[http://wiki.swlrp.com/index.php?title=Robert_Drake], on the island of Guernsey--close enough to London when needed, but far from the business of big city living. The crowded, daily emotional resonance of larger cities weigh too heavily on her senses for a reasonable quality of life.

Thanks for reading this bio.

Elana has been monogamous and married for over 2 years of real-time plots. This character does not engage in ERP, and does not remember any previous relationships in TSW. '''Please respect this.''' Trying to send me old TSW screenshots of our characters or otherwise convince my character of the past will be considered a form of godmodding.
 
 
Elana's characterization is at baseline, the core bee-to-faction agent experience with a few novelties.
 
 
 
In the Secret World universe, please enjoy the mission "Fierce Competition" in Kaidan, which informs how Elana detects and senses emotion, minus the colourful ribbons of the Astral Vision buff. Make sure to follow the 'wrong' paths of mission tiers, to listen to extra dialogue from Kan'ami.
 
 
 
Elana's FC is actress Kristin Kreuk.
 
 
 
Elana was named after Sylvia Engdahl's Elana series, an interstellar anthropologist of ''Enchantress from the Stars'' and ''The Far Side of Evil''.
