Robert "Solon" Drake is a cybernetically enhanced marksman and hacker associated with the Illuminati.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonAR.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Robert lines up a shot.]]<br />
<br />
Robert's early life was as a young, studious engineer on compulsory military service in a northern Eurasian oblast during the USSR period. When his workplace was seemingly raided by the expected political opponents of the time, Robert was spared and conscripted into an early incarnation of the Manticore Research Group, who sought to keep his mind and expertise intact throughout many R&D cycles. While never subject to the anima-touched conditions to be a candidate for the Mitsubachi or Project Odyssey over time, the first of many experiments were conducted on Robert, as he became an involuntary test subject and consultant among the many human-like droids in Orochi's fleet, from bodyguards to babysitters. <br />
<br />
Decades later, Robert was seized by the Illuminati---after lengthy periods of Q&A and reprogramming, was bestowed the Americanized name "Robert Drake" for the first time, and thrown back into the field as an agent with the know-how to infiltrate Orochi sites across New England, Egypt, and Transylvania.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonOrochiSL.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Liberated from his lifelong captors and creators.]]<br />
<br />
Robert was eventually recaptured by the Orochi Group, but discovered by his future wife, Elana Drake, through a separate Orochi-related venture of her own. Elana assisted Robert in the excruciating removal of the cyborg casing that had rapidly overtaken his body after recapture, and left the facility together with dozens of neutralized Orochi staff lining the corridors of their exit. Married since 2016, Elana and Robert maintain a home in Guernsey financed by her estate, but are often travelling together solving large and small cases--and disseminating their findings to both their factions.<br />
<br />
Robert speaks a pithy, formal dialogue of English through a linguistic implant in his brain, but is known to break into his native Russian when under fire. As a human with various cybernetic enhancements spanning decades, he is capable of incredible accuracy and rapid deduction in combat, with a quick adaptation to both cutting-edge and antiquated technologies of his youth. When his conscious self is heavy and weakened from installing updates to his synthetic neurology, he enjoys playing the electric organ to pass the time.<br />

Robert is a member of Horseman Resources. He is most often caught in the field associating with agents carrying the following names: "Aeryl", "Deodand", "Manifesto", "Mangaspirit", and his wife, [http://wiki.swlrp.com/index.php?title=Elana_Drake "Hestian"].<br />

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.

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.<br />

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.<br />

Robert "Solon" Drake is a cybernetically enhanced marksman associated with the Illuminati.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonAR.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Robert lines up a shot.]]<br />
<br />
Robert's early life was as a young, studious engineer on compulsory military service in a northern Eurasian oblast during the USSR period. When his workplace was seemingly attacked by the expected political opponents of the time, Robert was spared and conscripted into an early incarnation of the Manticore Research Group, who sought to keep his mind and expertise intact throughout many R&D cycles. While never subject to the anima-touched conditions to be a candidate for the Mitsubachi or Project Odyssey over time, Robert was an involuntary consultant among the many human-like droids in Orochi's fleet, from bodyguards to babysitters. <br />
<br />
Decades later, Robert was seized by the Illuminati---after lengthy periods of Q&A and reprogramming, was bestowed the Americanized name "Robert Drake" for the first time, and thrown back into the field as an agent with the know-how to infiltrate Orochi sites across New England, Egypt, and Transylvania.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonOrochiSL.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Liberated from his lifelong captors and creators.]]<br />
<br />
Robert was eventually recaptured by the Orochi Group, but discovered by his future wife, Elana Drake, through a separate Orochi-related venture of her own. Elana assisted Robert in the excruciating removal of the cyborg casing that had rapidly overtaken his body after recapture, and left the facility together with dozens of neutralized Orochi staff lining the corridors of their exit. Married since 2016, Elana and Robert maintain a home in Guernsey financed by her estate, but are often travelling together solving large and small cases--and disseminating their findings to both their factions.<br />
<br />
Robert speaks a pithy, formal dialogue of English through a linguistic implant in his brain, but is known to break into his native Russian when under fire. As a human with various cybernetic enhancements spanning decades, he is capable of incredible accuracy and rapid deduction in combat, with a quick adaptation to both cutting-edge and antiquated technologies of his youth. When his conscious self is heavy and weakened from installing updates to his synthetic neurology, he enjoys playing the electric organ to pass the time.<br />

Robert "Solon" Drake is a cybernetically enhanced marksman associated with the Illuminati.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonAR.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Robert lines up a shot.]]<br />
<br />
Robert's early life was as a young, studious engineer in a northern Eurasian oblast during the USSR period. When his workplace was seemingly attacked by the expected political opponents of the time, Robert was spared and conscripted into an early incarnation of the Manticore Research Group, who sought to keep his mind and expertise intact throughout many R&D cycles. While never subject to the anima-touched conditions to be a candidate for the Mitsubachi or Project Odyssey over time, Robert was an involuntary consultant among the many human-like droids in Orochi's fleet, from bodyguards to babysitters. <br />
<br />
Decades later, Robert was seized by the Illuminati---after lengthy periods of Q&A and reprogramming, was bestowed the Americanized name "Robert Drake" for the first time, and thrown back into the field as an agent with the know-how to infiltrate Orochi sites across New England, Egypt, and Transylvania.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonOrochiSL.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Liberated from his lifelong captors and creators.]]<br />
<br />
Robert was eventually recaptured by the Orochi Group, but discovered by his future wife, Elana Drake, through a separate Orochi-related venture of her own. Elana assisted Robert in the excruciating removal of the cyborg casing that had gradually overtaken his body, and left the facility together with dozens of neutralized Orochi staff lining the corridors of their exit. Married since 2016, Elana and Robert maintain a home in Guernsey financed by her estate, but are often travelling together solving large and small cases--and disseminating their findings to both their factions.<br />
<br />
Robert speaks a pithy, formal dialogue of English through a linguistic implant in his brain, but is known to break into his native Russian when under fire. As a human with various cybernetic enhancements spanning decades, he is capable of incredible accuracy and rapid deduction in combat, with a quick adaptation to both cutting-edge and antiquated technologies. When his conscious self is heavy and weakened from installing updates to his synthetic neurology, he enjoys playing the electric organ to pass the time.<br />

Robert is a member of Horseman Resources. He is most often caught in the field associating with agents carrying the following names: "Aeryl", "Deodand", "Manifesto", "Mangaspirit", and his wife, [http://wiki.swlrp.com/index.php?title=Elana_Drake "Hestian"].<br />

Robert "Solon" Drake is a cybernetically enhanced marksman associated with the Illuminati.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonAR.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Robert lines up a shot.]]<br />
<br />
Robert's origins begin as a scientist in an undisclosed research site and rural town in Russia. When this site was discovered and destroyed, his remains were kept alive and repurposed in various Manticore weapons programs for the Orochi Group, who sought to keep his mind and expertise intact throughout many R&D cycles. While lacking Anima-touched status to be a candidate for the Mitsubachi or Project Odyssey, Robert was slated to operate among the many human-like droids in Orochi's fleet, from bodyguards to babysitters. Robert's body was seized by the Illuminati---after lengthy periods of Q&A, wetwork and reprogramming, was bestowed the Americanized name "Robert Drake", and thrown back into the field as an agent with the know-how to infiltrate Orochi sites across New England, Egypt, and Transylvania.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonOrochiSL.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Liberated from his lifelong captors and creators.]]<br />
<br />
Robert was eventually recaptured by the Orochi Group, but discovered by his future wife, Elana Drake, through a separate Orochi-related venture of her own. Elana assisted Robert in the painful removal of the Orochi-branded cyborg casing that threatened to fully conceal his humanity, and left the facility together with dozens of neutralized Orochi staff lining the corridors of their exit. Married since 2016, Elana and Robert maintain a home in Guernsey financed by her estate, but are often travelling together solving big and small cases--and selectively disseminating their findings to both their factions.<br />
<br />
Robert speaks a pithy, formal dialogue of English through a linguistic implant in his brain, but is known to break into his native Russian when caught under fire. As a human with various cybernetic enhancements spanning decades, he is capable of incredible accuracy and rapid deduction in combat, with a quick adaptation to both cutting-edge and antiquated technologies. When his conscious self is heavy-headed installing cognitive updates, he enjoys playing the electric organ to pass the time.<br />

Elana Drake is an anima-powered Templar agent. <br />
<br />
Previous roles include research as an Occult Gerontologist (concerning the diversity of immortal states in organic and inorganic forms), and counseling agents at Temple Hall with occasional cross-factional referrals.<br />
<br />
[[File:RecursivePrayer.jpg|200px|thumb|right|'']]<br />
<br />
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. She excels in support roles.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

<br />
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--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.<br />

"Elana Drake", in any given encounter, retains the knowledge and temperament of the Original, but exponential complexities across realities mean that any memories of previous relationships are vague or fractured. The whispers of the Buzzing and her given faction Handler are constants that she must re-educate herself with, to avoid a psychotic break outside of Gaia's reach to mend.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

[[File:Crossfactional.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Aeryl, Solon, and Hestian convening at Ealdwic Park.]]<br />
<br />
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. She is affiliated with the Templar faction, but has never sought membership with any specific Templar cabal or company within.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

Elana's characterization is at baseline, the core bee-to-faction agent experience with a few novelties.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Elana's FC is actress Kristin Kreuk.<br />
<br />
Elana was named after Sylvia Engdahl's Elana series, an interstellar anthropologist of ''Enchantress from the Stars'' and ''The Far Side of Evil''.<br />

Robert "Solon" Drake is a cybernetically enhanced marksman associated with the Illuminati.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonAR.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Robert lines up a shot.]]<br />
<br />
Robert's origins begin as a scientist in an undisclosed research site and rural town in Russia. When this site was discovered and destroyed, his remains were kept alive and repurposed in various Manticore weapons programs for the Orochi Group, who sought to keep his mind and expertise intact throughout many R&D cycles. While lacking Anima-touched status to be a candidate for the Mitsubachi or Project Odyssey, Robert was slated to operate among the many human-like droids in Orochi's fleet, from bodyguards to babysitters. Robert's body was seized by the Illuminati---after lengthy periods of Q&A, wetwork and reprogramming, was bestowed the Americanized name "Robert Drake", and thrown back into the field as an agent with the know-how to infiltrate Orochi sites across New England, Egypt, and Transylvania.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonOrochiSL.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Liberated from his lifelong captors and creators.]]<br />
<br />
Robert was eventually recaptured by the Orochi Group, but discovered by his future wife, Elana Drake, through a separate Orochi-related venture of her own. Elana assisted Robert in the painful removal of the Orochi-branded cyborg casing that threatened to fully conceal his humanity, and left the facility together with dozens of neutralized Orochi staff lining the corridors of their exit. Married since 2016, Elana and Robert maintain a home in Guernsey financed by her estate, but are often travelling together solving big and small cases--and selectively disseminating their findings to both their factions.<br />
<br />
Robert speaks a pithy, formal dialogue of English through a linguistic implant in his brain, but is known to break into his native Russian when caught under fire. As a human with various cybernetic enhancements spanning decades, he is capable of incredible accuracy and rapid deduction in combat situations. When his conscious self is heavy-headed installing cognitive updates, he enjoys playing the electric organ to pass the time.<br />
<br />
<br />
=• Known Associates/Affiliations •=<br />
Robert is a member of Horseman Resources. He is most often caught in the field associating with agents carrying the following names: "Aeryl", "Deodand", "Manifesto", "Mangaspirit", and his wife, [http://wiki.swlrp.com/index.php?title=Elana_Drake "Hestian"].<br />

Robert "Solon" Drake is a cybernetically enhanced marksman associated with the Illuminati.<br />
<br />
Robert's origins begin as a scientist in an undisclosed research site and rural town in Russia. When this site was discovered and destroyed, his remains were recycled and repurposed in various Manticore weapons programs for the Orochi Group, who sought to keep his mind and expertise intact throughout many R&D cycles. While lacking Anima-touched status to be a candidate for the Mitsubachi or Project Odyssey, Robert was slated to operate among the many human-like droids in Orochi's fleet, from bodyguards to babysitters. Robert's body was seized by the Illuminati---after lengthy periods of Q&A, wetwork and reprogramming, was bestowed the Americanized name "Robert Drake", and thrown back into the field as an agent with the know-how to infiltrate Orochi sites across New England, Egypt, and Transylvania.<br />
<br />
[[File:SolonAR.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Robert lines up a shot.]]<br />
<br />
Robert was eventually recaptured by the Orochi Group, but discovered by his future wife, Elana Drake, through a separate Orochi-related venture of her own. Elana assisted Robert in the painful removal of the Orochi-branded cyborg casing that threatened to fully conceal his humanity, and left the facility together with dozens of neutralized Orochi staff lining the corridors of their exit. Married since 2016, Elana and Robert maintain a home in Guernsey financed by her estate, but are often travelling together solving big and small cases--and selectively disseminating their findings to both their factions.<br />
<br />
Robert speaks a pithy, formal dialogue of English through a linguistic implant in his brain, but is known to break into his native Russian when caught under fire. As a human with various cybernetic enhancements spanning decades, he is capable of incredible accuracy and rapid deduction in combat situations. When his conscious self is heavy-headed installing cognitive updates, he enjoys playing the electric organ to pass the time.<br />

Robert was a member of Horseman Resources. He is most often caught in the field associating with agents carrying the following names: "Aeryl", "Deodand", "Manifesto", "Mangaspirit", and his wife, [http://wiki.swlrp.com/index.php?title=Elana_Drake "Hestian"].<br />

Elana Drake is an Anima-Powered Templar of quiet repute. Previous roles include research as an Occult Gerontologist (concerning the diversity of immortal states in organic and inorganic forms), and counseling agents at Temple Hall with occasional cross-factional referrals.<br />
<br />
[[File:RecursivePrayer.jpg|200px|thumb|right|'']]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

As a practitioner of Chaos Magic, the shift to SWL affected her greatly, especially as doppelgangers made their appearance in this reality, multiplying her consciousness across dimensions. <br />

<br />
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 a second time 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.<br />

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

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.<br />
<br />
Elana lives in a single detached residence 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.<br />

Elana participates very openly across factions, believing (to her handler's chagrin) that the uncompromising loyalty espoused by Templars is yet another fixed paradigm unsuitable to Chaos practitioners like her--though this has never caused her to change factions entirely.<br />

=• The Secret War •=<br />
Elana Drake is an Anima-Powered Templar of quiet repute. Previous roles include research as an Occult Gerontologist, and counseling agents at Temple Hall with occasional cross-factional referrals.<br />
<br />
[[File:RecursivePrayer.jpg|200px|thumb|right|'']]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

"''Seeking to avoid violence we have made a virtue of suppression of anger. This damages the emotional constitution. Denying oneself anger, one loses all the rapture of love. Be ye men and women of great passions.''" -Peter J. Carroll, Liber Null & Psychonaut: An Introduction to Chaos Magic[https://books.google.ca/books?id=tI90Xz9uY74C&pg=PA81&lpg=PA81&dq=Seeking+to+avoid+violence+we+have+made+a+virtue+of+suppression+of+anger.+This+damages+the+emotional+constitution.+Denying+oneself+anger,+one+loses+all+the+rapture+of+love.+Be+ye+men+and+women+of+great+passions&source=bl&ots=UItAAQY3IO&sig=ACfU3U0X7ajuZ9cRud3RRa9oogKFVQrJ1A&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjf-6aer8fhAhWHrZ4KHQvXCoEQ6AEwAHoECAkQAQ#v=onepage&q=Seeking%20to%20avoid%20violence%20we%20have%20made%20a%20virtue%20of%20suppression%20of%20anger.%20This%20damages%20the%20emotional%20constitution.%20Denying%20oneself%20anger%2C%20one%20loses%20all%20the%20rapture%20of%20love.%20Be%20ye%20men%20and%20women%20of%20great%20passions&f=false]<br />
<br />
=• From TSW to SWL •=<br />
As a practitioner of Chaos Magic, the shift to SWL affected her greatly, especially as doppelgangers made their appearance in this reality, multiplying her consciousness across dimensions. <br />
<br />
[[File:ParadigmShift.jpg|200px|thumb|right|''Within the darkest hallways of Temple Hall, a recursive sacrifice...]]<br />
<br />
'''((''In other words, this character faced a soft reboot post-TSW and her attunement to Chaos informs this.''))'''<br />
<br />
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 a second time 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.<br />
<br />
[[File:5Years.jpg|200px|thumb|left|''5 years of service from naivete to self-actualization.'']]<br />
<br />
"Elana Drake", in any given encounter, retains the knowledge and temperament of the Original, but exponential complexities across realities mean that any memories of previous relationships are vague or fractured. Only the whispers of the Buzzing and her given faction Handler are constants that she must re-educate herself with, to avoid a psychotic break outside of Gaia's reach to mend.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
[[File:Hellscape.jpg|200px|thumb|right|''Warmly devoted yet highly solitary, Elana's attunement across dimensions leaves her apathetic to her own destruction.]]<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
=• Known Associates/Affiliations •=<br />
<br />
[[File:Crossfactional.jpg|200px|thumb|right|]]<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Elana participates very openly across factions, believing (to her handler's chagrin) that the uncompromising loyalty espoused by Templars is yet another fixed paradigm unsuitable to Chaos practitioners like her--though this has never caused her to change factions entirely.<br />
<br />
Elana lives in a single detached residence 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.<br />
=• Special Notes •=<br />
<br />
[[File:FierceCompetition.jpg|200px|thumb|right|''"Strong emotion leaves traces, psychic signals, in the very air..."'']]<br />
<br />
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.<br />

Carroll, Liber Null & Psychonaut: An Introduction to Chaos Magic[https://books.google.ca/books?id=tI90Xz9uY74C&pg=PA81&lpg=PA81&dq=Seeking+to+avoid+violence+we+have+made+a+virtue+of+suppression+of+anger.+This+damages+the+emotional+constitution.+Denying+oneself+anger,+one+loses+all+the+rapture+of+love.+Be+ye+men+and+women+of+great+passions&source=bl&ots=UItAAQY3IO&sig=ACfU3U0X7ajuZ9cRud3RRa9oogKFVQrJ1A&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjf-6aer8fhAhWHrZ4KHQvXCoEQ6AEwAHoECAkQAQ#v=onepage&q=Seeking%20to%20avoid%20violence%20we%20have%20made%20a%20virtue%20of%20suppression%20of%20anger.%20This%20damages%20the%20emotional%20constitution.%20Denying%20oneself%20anger%2C%20one%20loses%20all%20the%20rapture%20of%20love.%20Be%20ye%20men%20and%20women%20of%20great%20passions&f=false]<br />
=• From TSW to SWL •=<br />
As a practitioner of Chaos Magic, the shift to SWL affected her greatly, especially as doppelgangers made their appearance in this reality, multiplying her consciousness across dimensions. <br />
<br />
((''In other words, this character faced a soft reboot post-TSW and her attunement to Chaos informs this.''))<br />
<br />
It is of multifactional knowledge that Elana has been chaotically altered or intervened with at least twice by other doppelgangers, 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.<br />
<br />
"Elana Drake", in any given encounter, retains the knowledge and temperament of the Original, but exponential complexities across realities mean that any previous relationships 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.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
=• Known Associates/Affiliations •=<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Elana is married to Robert Drake, a cybernetically enhanced Illuminati marksman of Russian-American descent.<br />
<br />
Elana lives in a single detached residence on the island of Guernsey with Robert--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.<br />
=• Special Notes •=<br />
<br />
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.<br />

Elana's FC is actor Kristin Kreuk.<br />
Robert's FC is actor Michiel Huisman.<br />

Elana Drake is an Anima-Powered Templar of quiet repute, living in small-time for the past couple of years. Previous roles include research as an Occult Gerontologist, and counseling agents at Temple Hall with occasional multifactional referrals.<br />
<br />
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. Psychoempathy, and the shifting to differing moods and emotions, is not a lone acquired skill, but a necessary paradigm to enter preferred states of mind and body, and a common asset to Chaos practitioners and Western mysticism in general.<br />
<br />
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.<br />

=• The Secret War •=<br />
Elana Drake is an Anima-Powered Templar of quiet repute, living in small-time for the past couple of years. Previous roles include research as an Occult Gerontologist, and counseling agents at Temple Hall with occasional multifactional referrals.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
"''Seeking to avoid violence we have made a virtue of suppression of anger. This damages the emotional constitution. Denying oneself anger, one loses all the rapture of love. Be ye men and women of great passions.''" -Peter J. Carroll, An Introduction to Chaos Magic<br />

=• From TSW to SWL •=<br />
[[File:20190127183340 1.jpg|200px|thumb|right|In an undated still frame, Elana tunes into her extradimensional energy.]]<br />
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 on a cellular level. <br />
<br />
It is of multifactional knowledge that Elana has been chaotically altered at least twice by other Selves, once when Agartha shifted into its current form with a visible Seed of Life, and twice after a lengthy, '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 too established for any Templar magi to rehabilitate her without reaching for older occult texts in the Archives regarding primordial chaos.<br />
<br />
"Elana Drake", in any given encounter, retains the general 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, when this (in extreme circumstances) happens, to avoid a more serious psychotic break outside of Gaia's reach to mend.<br />
<br />
She carries herself in an easygoing way when off duty out of necessity, her mind's background noise scattered and daydreaming in the collective attention of other doppelgangers living in close synchronicity across dimensions, or passively processing mundane emotions around her--she admits she could never tend bar at the Horned God with how self-absorbed, sensitive, and poor her short-term memory can be. A self-isolate, her post-mundane social circles have always run small.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
<br />
=• Known Associates/Affiliations •=<br />
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.<br />
<br />
Elana is married to Robert Drake, a cybernetically enhanced marksman.<br />
<br />
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. The crowded, daily emotional resonance of bystanders in larger cities weigh too heavily on her senses for a reasonable quality of life.<br />
<br />

Thanks for reading this bio.<br />
<br />
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 or otherwise convince my character of the past will be considered a form of godmodding.<br />
