 A gentle breeze began to flow,
creating music to one’s ears,
whence it came no one knows,
yet it takes away all our fears.
Possessing such power and might,
as it steadily warms the cool air,
leaves dancing everywhere in sight,
magical essence to those who dare.
A single gift of beauty to behold,
the soft wind felt upon your face,
yet, in it’s fury it can be so bold,
not every moment is satin and lace.
It carries the fragrance of flowers,
blending aroma of Spring so rare,
hard to believe in Winter it devours,
but for now, it’s splendor we share.
The mystical wind is like life itself,
for it contains both good and bad,
never found sitting idle on a shelf,
it can make one happy or forever sad.
[x][x][x][x]- Samuel E Stone

Status: Single
Sexuality: Straight
Personality: Eloise, for the most part, lives her life internally- dealing with things according to how she feels about them and how they fit in with her personal values. Externally, she takes things in with her sense of intuition.
Even as a child, Eloise's main goal in life is to find out the meaning of her life. What is her purpose in life? How can she best serve humanity in her life span? She's an idealist, and a perfectionist, to a fault, and will drive herself hard in her self imposed mission of achieving goals she has set for herself.
As a general rule, Eloise attempts to be thoughtful and considerate. She believes herself to not only to have the ability to be a good listener, but also to put people at ease. Regardless of her self confidence in these fields, Eloise is reserved in expressing emotions, beyond her near crippling shyness for strangers. Still, she is genuinely interested in understanding people and is open and warm with people she knows well.
As with most people, Eloise does not like conflict, and will go to great lengths to avoid it. If she must face it, she will always approach it from the perspective of her feelings, being that they lead her almost every decision. In situations of conflict, Eloise will place little importance on who is right and who is wrong; rather, she will focus on the way that the conflict makes her feel, and wont really care whether or not she is right. She merely doesn't want to feel bad. At times, this will make her appear irrational and illogical when faced with arguments. On the other hand, she fancies herself a good mediator, and typically good at solving other people's conflicts. She would just rather not face any, herself.
When faced with commonplace details of her own life, Eloise is almost always completely unaware. Long periods of time can past without her ever noticing a stain on her blouse, but in situations involving her mistress' home, would carefully and meticulously brush a speck of dust off of a manor-hold knick knack.
She does not like to deal with hard facts and logic. Her focus on her feelings and the conditions of her fellow humans makes it difficult for her to deal with impersonal judgment. She simply doesn't understand, or believe, in the validity of impersonal judgment, which makes her naturally rather ineffective at using it. She will go to several lengths to avoid impersonal analysis. Under stress, it's not uncommon for her to mis-use hard logic in the heat of anger, throwing out fact after (often inaccurate) fact in an emotional outburst.
As far as standards go, Eloise believes in only the highest, and is, thereby, a perfectionist. Consequently, she is unusually hard on herself and rarely, if ever, gives herself credit for anything. This also causes her to have problems working well with others, because they never seem to match her set standards, regardless of the fact that- typically- even she does not reach them. In group situations, she generally has a control problem. Because of her desire to obtain perfection, she has bouts in her life where she becomes very confused and is almost paralyzed about what to do with her life.
Though usually well versed in the form of written words, Eloise tends to be awkward and uncomfortable with expressing herself verbally. Because of this, she tends to feel as if she cannot truly connect with anyone. Most of the time, she is correct in this.
Often, her point of view of herself, and others, are terribly obscured. When insulted, treated poorly, or betrayed, Eloise is more likely to blame herself. When such situations occur, she tends to be hurt tremendously, yet has no way of letting out her frustrations properly, as she lacks a general 'coping' method.
Because of her general inability to connect with people, Eloise will often take a comment the wrong way, or find what another individual is doing to be a direct, and personal, attack on her. If someone treats her with respect, and kindness, and yet are not part of her near and dear, she will convince herself that their intentions are wrong, and harmful to her, regardless of not ever truly knowing their intentions. More often than not, she tends to make up things in her mind about someone to make it seem like they are out to get her, when they are completely innocent.
Physical Description: Standing at 4’10, and weighing in at 100 pounds even, Eloise is the perfect image of a tiny woman. Her petite stature often means she has to look up to people to talk to them. Her pale pallor and dark green eyes almost give her a doll-like appearance. This is only further enhanced by her dark brown, almost black hair, which falls down her back in uncontrollable, and at times messy, waves.
Due to the combination of her position in life as a maid, and her personal beliefs in religion, Eloise tends to clothe herself in full ankle length dresses, or blouses with full length skirts. At times she can be seen with an apron covering her attire- especially when running errands for Lady Sara-Anne and her toes are always covered in non-descript flats. To keep warm during the winter, she has a simple shawl given to her from her mistress herself. Forever accompanying her is her wicker basket in which she keeps Imani’s bottle.
History: Eloise Morrow was an orphan. Nineteen years and some-odd months ago, the baby girl was left to the care of the many priestesses of a temple in Idia. She was raised under their careful and plentiful eyes. Seen as a daughter of the gods, rather than a daughter of any mortal parents, the child was immediately schooled in all manners of religion, her mother Aevah, her father a god of his own, and her protectors the priestesses.
As soon as the girl was old enough to write, she was given the task of hand copying scriptures and chorus books. Ink, quills, and parchment became most of her childhood memories as she was graced with the ability to read and write- so uncommon to many of her future stature in life. She spent her days copying and her nights by candle light, sewing her own clothes and working on stitch work.
When she grew into her teenage years, more tasks began being delegated to the child of the temple. She sought out herbs for the injured and spices for the food. She assisted in the kitchen, learning how to cook for the mass groups that would come into the temples. Her later teenage years saw travels between temples, bringing gifts and prayers. One such travel had her meeting Lady Sara-Anne.
Sara-Anne was the Lady of a manor in Amies who married to a lord often out at work. Accompanied by a small offering for the main temple, the noble woman came to pray for fertility and to be blessed with child. It was there she met Eloise, who was working around the temple. The two found easy conversation but split ways.
On Eloise’s twentieth birthday, their paths collided again. Sara-Anne still had not taken with child and after offering another trinket and prayer, asked Eloise to come home with her. She offered the girl a chance to live on her own, her own wage, a chance to see more of the world, and most important- a chance to spread her knowledge about religion. The appeal was great, and before long Eloise was traveling back with her new mistress to the manor, ready to learn from the world and maybe teach it at the same time.

The manor located in the city of Amies is a testament to the networth of Lady Sara-Anne and her husband.
With a large foyer and ballroom for entertainment, it’s obvious the manor is a house of a social woman.
There are three sitting rooms on the ground floor and it along with the second floor has a vast amount of unused guestrooms.
The garden is an intricate ensemble of flowers, trees, and simple pathways for the occasional traveler.
Eloise has her own room on the second floor.
