The tome before you belongs to Jerava (Ithiltari) and Elena. There is a seal surrounding the book, one that allows you to leaf through the pages but prevents you from adding anything. The enchantment is strong and cannot be broken so easily, if at all. So just sit back and enjoy the Tall Tale that is unfolding before you. You can visit the Stationery Store to find out how you can write your own Tall Tale.

Curious about what Elena was like prior to growing? Check her website for more information.


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.The Basics:

Name: Elena [eh-lee-nah]
Name origin and meaning: Quenya; of the stars
Nicknames: Lena, Princess, Mistress
Font Color: Blue
Age: Embellished (Between 9 and 11)
Birthday: May 23rd, 2005
Eye Color: Light Blue
Hair Color: Blue-black, with blue-white markings
Family: Jerava (mum); Anarya, Melissa, Raime, Naice (sisters); 30+ Tahnee (cousins)
Distinguishing Marks: Hair marked with constellations that glow; elaborate tatoos on her hands, arms, and back; pointed ears

Special Abilities:

Hair: Elena is able to control the glow of her hair; most of the time she leaves it 'off', except for her favorite, the constellation the Big Dipper. When she's extremely upset, this control slips and the glow comes back full force, even if it's not dark out.
Skin Temperature/Cold Tolerence: Much like Anarya, Elena has a different normal body temperature than most people. However, Elena's is sharply canted towards being colder, rather than warmer like Arya or her friend Ilistala. If she lets her control over this slip, frost forms on her arms and spreads the longer she neglects to rein it in. The cold and frost don't bother her at all, and she enjoys being out in cold weather. Hot weather or heated temperatures make her ill.
Tattoos: Elena's tattoos, much like her hair, glow when she is upset. It seems to be related to her frost creating abilities; they glow even more when the frost starts forming.
Ice Formation: Elena has recently discovered that if she gets really angry or upset, the frost will become ice. It appears to be reactive; when Tybalt threatened to cut her arm off, the ice flowed up her arm to protect her. It also, unfortunately, stuck the two of them together. In order to reverse the effect, Elena needs to calm down.

Personality:

Elena is well-mannered and generally well-behaved. She's not above throwing a tantrum when she feels it's neccessary; however, this doesn't happen very often anymore, and Elena's switched tactics to manipulation through her charm. Elena typically only likes people on a surface level and so far doesn't have any deep or true friends. Certainly there are those who she'd be hesitant about manipulating or lying to, but it's unknown how deep that trust really goes.

When extremely irritated, she drops the 'pretty pretty princess' facade, and is instead rather cold and haughty. Elena attempts to keep that under control, as she's learned that it's easier to get people to pay attention to you when you're being cordial. This may be another layer to Elena, however, and not a reflection on who she really is.

Elena is typically very confident and sure of herself, but it is possible to make her flustered and throw her off balance. She's shyer and more vulnerable like this, unable to toss back insults and seemingly unwilling or unable to be mean. When thrown completely off balance, Elena tends to be nicer and more genuine, as if wanting the other person to like her and for things to go back to normal.

She enjoys recieving gifts and tends to view them as an expression of how much people love/adore/worship her. Of course, Elena holds her family members to higher standards in this area than anyone else, but does expect things from certain people on important gift-giving holidays.

Currently: In a coma. D:

Likes: Stars, the night sky, night time, astronomy, being alone, temperatures below 70 degrees, ice, the colors blue, grey, black, purple, and white, certain people, her pets, shinies, sapphires, jewelry, gifts, her mum, Rasalus, Dyran, chocolate, strawberries, Italian food, nice clothes, dresses, skirts, fancy shirts, soft things, Aislin, books about princesses, stars, or astronomy, astrology, constellations, Luthe?, Christmas, her birthday, Naice, cell phones

Dislikes: Anarya, being in large groups of people, hot weather, the sun, being ignored, Laure, Luthe, Rasalus, siblings, Liana, Tiwaz, school, stairs, headaches, most small children, being sick

This listing includes only those Tahnee that Elena interacts with on a regular basis, as well as all of her various siblings.


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Alec (TANT): Alec is grumpy and fun to tease. I think he's a bit scared of me; I can't imagine why. It's not like I'd ever actually do anything to hurt him or the other Tant. Maybe he's just wary of girls in general? When he's not, um, hiding from me, Alec is pretty sarcastic and mean. I like him better then.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Allie (Tahnee Mini): Allie is my first lady in waiting. She's my second favorite of mum's Tahnee, and likes to help me perfect my manners and I think she said she was going to teach me embroidery, instead of 'nasty, messy pottery,' which she says is unfit for a proper lady to do. I like pottery though, it's very relaxing.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Anarya (Shattered, Child): The beginning of the end. :/ I don't like Arya. She's way too warm, and she's not real bright...I mean smart, since she is really bright, which is another thing I don't like about her. I never wanted a sister, and I hope mum stops finding or bringing home new siblings.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Anarya (Shattered, Pre-Teen): Now she's bigger. D: She's a bit better company now, since she can have a coherent conversation without devolving into a drooling idiot. I still don't like her, and I still wish Mum hadn't kept that stupid shard. Hopefully going to school will teach her better behavior.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Anli (Tahnee Mouse): Anli's been with mum for a long time, even before they moved into the House or Miss Nima's house. She's super nice, and loves to cook and she's real good at it too. She runs the kitchen, and tends to boss people around when it gets close to meal time. I don't mind, since I don't do things where she'd need to boss me around.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Aurion (Tahnee): Mum has quite a few Tahnee who's names start with A, doesn't she. Anyway, Aurion is very nice, and quiet, and mostly stays to himself out in the woods. He lives out there in a cottage mum made him when he first arrived or something. He's the poor person who has to take care of that twerp Arya, so I feel sorry for him.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Daren (Tahnee Mini): Daren is a lot like Dyran, except more awkward and less refined. I think he needs more practice at being a vampire. He's fun to talk to, though, since Dyran can be so incredibly stuffy sometimes. Daren's definently among my favorite of the Tahnee, probably because he's like Dyran but my age.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Dyran (Tahnee Vampire): Dyran! Dyran is my favorite Tahnee. He's really smart and teaches me a lot of things. He got me interested in pottery (although I suspect it was at first a way to keep me quiet), and he likes astronomy too. He takes care of me and is responsible for me whenever Mum's too busy to do something.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Ellania (Tahnee Mini): Out of all the 'new' Tahnee, I like Ella the best. She spends a lot of time in the kitchen with Anli, but Ella does all the baking now. I guess she's the dessert chef? She's really good, and Anli doesn't mind having someone to do all of that now. Ella's pretty good about saving me bits of dessert, which is why I like her.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Hecile (Pae'il): Hecile freaks me out. She came from a plush doll Miss Nimaina gave Mum for Christmas, which I guess isn't really that unusual. She's pretty quiet, for a baby, and tends to stay away from me. I have no idea what she is, although I have seen a few others that look a little like her at Miss Nimaina's house.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Hecile (Pae'il): Well, now she grew up. I guess. She's still pretty little, but isn't quite as creepy anymore. She is more annoying, though, since she's started to be more vocal and demanding. I hope that one of the Tahnee volunteers to take care of her soon so Hecile learns some manners.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Hecile: (Pae'il): She's such a brat. Her and Malira get along really well. They both like to play pranks, especially on me, and it's really annoying. I wish she'd just go back to the stupid island she says she's supposed to be from and leave me alone.


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Jared (TANT): Jared's pretty awesome. He's way more relaxed and easy going than Alec is. He's interested in astronomy too, so he and I spend a lot of time on the roof looking at constellations. Jared's smart too, and doesn't mind helping me with my stupid math homework. He even makes it easier to understand than the teacher does at school.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Laira (Tahnee Santa): Laira is one of my favorite Tahnee that aren't 'mine'. She's the seamstress, although I'm not entirely sure how many of the other people in the House take advantage of her services. All I know for sure is that I spend a lot of time down there at least once a week with Allie, designing dresses and outfits for Laira to make.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Laure (Fandangle Armature): Oh, ick, Laure. She was there when Mum got me, and we've never really gotten along since. Even after she got her memory wiped, we've still been at odds. Not that I really care; I tolerate sharing Mum with her because Laure was here first, but I'm the oldest daughter and obviously take precedance over a mechanical familiar.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Liana (Tahnee Mini): Liana is a brat. She's a cat based Tahnee, and likes to bother me a lot of the time. She's pushy and demanding and always thinks everything has to be about her. She's manipulative, and I think I'm the only one who can see her for what she really is. She can't trick me, I know all her tricks. It's too bad no one takes me seriously about it.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. Malira (Tahnee Mouse): Malira really confuses me. She's really helpful and stuff when I ask her about my garden, but then she goes and does things like drop a paint filled balloon on my head. I want to like her, I really do, but she can be so annoying! I wish she'd just make up her mind if she wants to be nice or mean.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Naice (Eden, Leaf): I'm telling you, a kid is going to pop out of the leaf and I KNEW I should have been keeping a closer eye on what Mum brought inside.


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Naice (Eden, Potted Leaf): Stupid flame head tried to set the leaf on fire, but I stopped her! Of course, now Mum is making Arya keep more of an eye on the leaf, especially now that it's planted and can't escape so easily.
...I hope it's another sister. ._.;;

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Lance (Simple Truth): Lance is a knight and a dragon. He's really smart, and told me about princesses and said I could be a good one. So I have to try my hardest to be a great princess so I don't let him down.


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Lance (Embellished): I didn't get to see Lance for very long at the Lake, but he's grown too. He looked really tired, but I think we all were. I hope I can see him again soon, maybe when we're not half-dead from lack of sleep.


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Mehiyal (Simple Truth): Miss Nimaina brought him over one day while she talked with Mum about something. He's quiet, and a little boring, since it takes a lot of effort to get him to have a conversation. I hear he's grown and started going to school; maybe now would be a better time to see him.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Chailyn (Simple Truth): Chai's pretty and nice. ^o^ She called me smart, and she's smart too. Pretty colors, all soft like a sunset. Chai got me two koi, and I got her a bracelet that kinda has the same colors she does. I want to see her again pretty soon and show her that I've grown up.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Vidya (Embellished): I've seen Vidya twice now. She's nice! I first met her in a bookstore and she said she'd make me hair clips that look like wings. We talked about books for a while too. The second time I saw her was when I met Tybalt and saw Lance had grown too. We were all pretty exhausted, so it wasn't nearly as fun.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Ilistala (Toddler): Stala is nice enough, I suppose, although she's a bit messy. She has pretty wings and these tatoos on her arm that are warm to the touch. I should see her again now that I have tatoos too.
Well, she's still messy, but a little better mannered. I feel sorry for her, if her birthday cake was any indication of her mum's cooking skills.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Ilistala (Pre-Teen): In Progress~



User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Adonis (Simple Truth): Donny. What to say? He's shiny, and has big wings that look like my hair. We didn't get to talk for very long, and he was confused by Rasalus. I really want to see him again.


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Adonis: (Embellished): RP is still in progress.



User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Shauna (Pre-Teen): RP is still in progress



User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Tybalt (Embellished): Again, I didn't really see much of him at the Lake. I don't know what to make of him. He says he's a pirate, and Lance doesn't like him at all. I don't know if I want to see him again.
No thanks~I don't like him either, and I understand why Lance doesn't. He's so...abrasive and uncivilized. I don't know how Viddy puts up with him.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Khalindra (Simple Truth): RP still in progress



User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Kaimana (Potted Leaf): Kai is a leaf, but can move around. It's pretty weird, but she was friendly and her mum was nice, even if she was dead. I don't know how that works, but I guess it does. I wonder what she's going to look like when she gets out of the leaf. I didn't get a chance to give her mum one of my cards, so hopefully we'll run into each other another time.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Jocelyn (Pre-Teen): RP still in progress



User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Sylvester (Embellished): I thought he was part of a dream when I first saw him. Didn't get to talk to him much after I realized I was, in fact, awake. Might be worthwhile to see him again.


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Tiwaz (Simple Truth): Okay, I really don't like her. I might act high and mighty, but I'm a princess and it's expected. She's annoying and rude and if I never see her again, it'll be too soon.


User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Armel (Embellished): RP is still in progress



User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.Brimstone (Toddler): Wow, Brimstone is not very well-mannered at all. I met him at Stala's birthday party, and he's just a big spoiled brat. It was Stala's birthday and okay, the cake was terrible, but it was her day and he just wanted everyone to pay attention to him. I don't like him at all, and I hope that Stala doesn't spend more time with him. I don't want her to backslide, now that I'm working on training her.

OOC Note: Redoing the memories to include links to posts, and the summary is now going to be from the point of view of whoever I feel like making it. xD Typically, it'll be Jerava or Elena. :3!
Jer
Elena
Rasalus
Dyran

May 23rd, 2005: Went to go buy paper, got a little girl named Elena instead.
May 23rd, 2005: Laure and I walked home with Elena, who wasn't happy about how long it took. When we got home, the sprockets swarmed her. The Celestials seemed particularly taken with her.
July 6th, 2005: Elena and I spend some quality time together designing her room.
August 9th, 2005: I finally bought Elena some sprockets - a pair of Celestials. She named them Siri and Sa, which makes sense to her and them.
September 11th, 2005: Went to the Forge, reality had some issues, met Seso again, my hair grew, and Elena made a new friend. Yay.
September 24th, 2005: Alright, what the hell is going on here? Laure's lost her memory, changed shape, and Elena claims to have found some golden string that no one else can see. No wonder I have bad dreams.
Um, how about finishing this one. Sounds like a good idea. -.-
September 25th, 2005: Forge's grand reopening. Joy of joys, Luthe is there, gets freaked out by Laure's non-existant personality, and flees to go hunt. Elena finds a package with her name on it and gets her very own Fandangle that she names Rasalus. Seso's there too, and we all go back to my house. What fun!
Still in progress. D:
October 2nd, 2005: Beach. In the backyard. What? Sa, of course, manages to find a shard of glass and I have to remove it. Yay me.
October 7th, 2005: Went to a park, did some reading, got a good idea. o.o!
My Mistress met another one of her kind, a dragon knight named Lance. We shall see if he proves worthy of her attentions.
October 25th, 2005: Nima came to visit and brought her own Tall Tale along.
Boring boy came over.
There have got to be female Tales, surely. Why can't my Mistress meet one of them?
In progress. DDD:

December 12th, 2005: Ordered some gifts for Chai and Mehi and Lance and, um, someone named Aurora.
Laure and Rasalus think they're so clever - adding a gift or two of their own to Elena's order, hoping I wouldn't see. Hah!

January 25th, 2006: Donny is very shiny, and has wings like my hair!
January 31st, 2006: Cer is a flying thing that looks like a cross between a cat and a mouse of some sort. He's soft!

For more detailed information regarding the House, please check out this thread.


The House is two stories tall, and depending on my mood, is either a Victorian manor or a Roman villa on the outside. The outer appearance doesn't really matter - it's only accurate as to the general shape of the place. Off to one side, almost seperate from the main house, is Luthenep's wing. It's outer appearance usually matches what the rest of the House looks like, but not always.

The landscaping is variable, but it's usually well-kept in the front. Out back, there's a beach area with a pool attached, several greenhouses, and a forest. Additionally, there are several balconies and decks attached to bedrooms on the second floor. Elena's is of particular note, as her deck has stairs that descend into a walled garden.

Hey, I just live here, I don't design it. Anymore, that is.

The interior is mostly constant. The first floor is infinitely more changable than the second, which is where the bedrooms are located. Rooms of note on the first floor are the kitchen, dining room, chemistry labs, library, airlock, and mailroom.

The kitchen and dining room are Anli's domain, and never move around. As the kitchen was designed to accomadate Anli, the counters, appliances, and cupboards are variable in height, depending on who's using them. The dining room is large, spacious, and filled with tables, much like a cafeteria. For more formal meals, this is changed and the tables are instead a couple of pretty long ones.

Stay away from the chemistry labs. They might have the best sheilds I can deisgn, but I'd stay away just to be safe. The sprockets and certain of the Tahnee enjoy watching things blow up, which may or may not include you.

The library is probably my favorite room on this floor; it's probably best if you stay out of here too. Not that you can get lost - think of the exit and there you are - it's just that the system I use for finding books is incredibly disorienting unless you've had training. And I'm far too busy to train you. Laure can always get a book you need.

The airlock is probably where you came in. It looks different depending on who's key you're using; my airlock is fairly simple looking. Elena and Laure have more complexly decorated rooms, and I haven't gotten around to letting Arya key hers in yet.

Another room to stay away from is the mailroom, unless you're a pyro. Generally speaking, all mail is incinerated upon arrival. Every morning Laure goes down to make sure that nothing important gets burned. So far, she hasn't made any mistakes.

Like I said earlier, the second floor is stable and relatively unchanging. The only major changes are when new people move in, and a room has to be added. Not even the layout changes often, except to put the kids close to my room. Now, the staircase to get up the second floor (and the elevator) has been known to move around, so you do have to watch out for that.

One place you'll probably never see is my lab. You can't get to it unless I let you (family members are automatically included, so they can let you in sometimes), and it never looks the same, except for my office in the middle of it. But, like I said, you'll probably never see it.

Remember, the House is a lot like my lab: you can't get in unless someone lets you.


Mum's so funny. >.> I haven't handed out any of my keys yet, but I'll keep a list here when I do. ^.^
