<strong>User:</strong>AribethAmkiir<br/><strong>Character:</strong>Ellya Hellatius<br/><strong>Role:</strong>Princess<br/><strong>Age:</strong>18<br/><strong>Height:</strong>5'6"<br/><strong>Weight:</strong>120 lbs<br/><strong>Weapon(s):</strong>Compassion, Charm, and Elegance<br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Ellya is a compassionate and passionate young woman.  She is eager to be heard, though wise enough to hold her tongue and know when she shouldn't speak.  She respects the traditions of the empire though she disagrees with them in her heart.  She believes she, or any of her sisters, could rule just as well as a man, if not better.  She values honesty, honor, loyalty, kindness, justice, and family.  Above all she wants what's best for the people of the empire, and fears that if one of her sisters become Empress she will be cast out or worse.  Ellya feels she would be committed to make amiable arrangements for her sisters, though knows that nothing will ever be the same once this tournament begins.  She enjoys pursuing knowledge, hawking, lawn games, horseback riding, dancing, and helping others.  She prefers art and culture over warfare.<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>Ellya is the third daughter of the Emperor's second wife.  Like her sisters and half-sisters, she was given everything she ever wanted.  She was provided with the best education available in the empire and excelled in etiquette, diction, and articulation.  As a very young girl her compassion was limitless and unbridled.  She was known to smuggle injured animals into her bedchambers and attempt to nurse them back to health.  Eventually, she grew out of this habit and learned to guard her heart more carefully even as her tutors slowly directed her education toward the healing arts.<br/><br/>She is renown throughout the empire for her ability to heal and for founding charities for the ill and wounded soldiers.  She often visits the wounded soldiers who've been brought back from the front lines.<br/><br/>While Ellya enjoys hawking, she doesn't like to see her owl catch something.  She doesn't hunt though she will ride along.  She's been taught to use a bow, but has little desire to do so and less skill.  She can be found within the imperial library when she has ample free time.<br/><br/><strong>Physical Description:</strong>Ellya is statuesque, slender with feminine curves.  She is of average height and build.  Her brown hair is often worn elegantly, though when not in public she prefers to wear it loose and long; it falls to her waist.  Her skin is unblemished and the color of cream.<br/><strong>Appearance:</strong><br/>(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j480/Erion2451/lily_collins_hot.png?t=1357465868)
