• Special Notes •

Elana Drake is an Anima-Powered Templar agent of quiet repute, living in small-time for the past couple of years, especially after her likeness began circulating in QBL Media stations. Previous roles include research as an Occult Gerontologist, and counseling agents at Temple Hall as an occupation to hone her psychoempathic skills in an organized setting.

Unique powers/abilities: Chaos Magic and heightened psychoempathic senses. Possesses the enhanced physiology and revival factors of typical Bees.

Combat skills: Chaos Magic applied through martial arts of varying styles with temporary Doppelganger summoning. Minor handguns. Blood Magic, but only on a macro, imprecise scale.

Other skills: Psychoempathy has practical uses in tracking, interviewing and counseling, and pacifying dysregulated colleagues and civilians. Limited telepathy forcibly acquired after her Original's first encounter with John Copley and the Evolved Filth many years ago permeated across her Selves--use sparingly: causes migraines, nausea and confusion if used for a long period of time.

Languages spoken: English (native language), French (from Canadian schooling system, and to speak with Guernsey locals).

As a practitioner of Chaos Magic, the shift to SWL affected her greatly, especially as doppelgangers made their appearance in this reality.

It is of multifactional knowledge that Elana Drake has been replaced at least twice by other Selves, first when Agartha changed and shifted into its current form with a visible Seed of Life, and second after a lengthy, 'successful' venture into the New Dawn camp in South Africa--making great risks in advancing her Faction's knowledge, at the expense of depersonalization from long-term brainwashing.

"Elana Drake", in any given encounter, retains the general knowledge and temperament of the Original, but significant, exponential complexities across realities mean that any previous relationships, romantic or companionate, are erased.

She carries herself in an easygoing way when off duty, her mind often scattered and daydreaming of the lives her other Selves are simultaneously living--she admits she could never tend the bar at the Horned God with how poor her short-term memory can be.

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.

As of January 2019, has served 5 years within her faction, across all Chaotic summations of Her in this reality.

Elana Drake was previously affiliated with Hollow Earth Consulting, a multifactional agency. She operates either at her Faction's behest or more often independently, most notably keeping ties and completing 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 of Russian descent.

Elana lives in a single detached residence on the island of Guernsey--close enough to London when needed, but far away from the business of big city living, where the crowded, daily emotional resonance of bystanders weigh too heavily on her senses for a reasonable quality of life.

Thanks for reading this bio.

Elana is monogamous and married. This character does not engage in ERP, and does not remember or recall any previous relationships in TSW. Please respect that. Trying to send me old TSW screenshots or otherwise convince my character of the past will be ignored and deemed abusive activity.

Elana's FC is actor Kristin Kreuk. Robert's FC is actor Michiel Huisman.

I enjoy taking portrait screenshots of other PCs. If you are interested, send me a DM over Twitter only, where a time and date can be agreed upon to meet. Please provide ideas of what your character would like to be seen doing/posing and in-game locations you would like your character to be posed; the only mental heavy lifting I should be doing with you is taking your pictures. Please note that it can take over an hour for me to take screenshots, filter through hundreds of them, tweak them, and upload the best ones to your viewing, so come with the expectation to take things slow.
