Elena Ichihara

Elena Ichihara is a transfer student at Laie University. Originally from Washington D.C, Elena received her Bachelors in Economics and is currently attending Leia University to finish her final year to gain her Masters. She lives on the outskirts of Leia University in a shared single-family house with her high school friend Mishail, a native of Hawaii.

She currently works part-time as a shopgirl in the new Baby, the Stars Shine Bright boutique and is labled the "Queen" of the Investigation Team by Nuevo Mundo.

Apperence
With pale skin, a classic hourglass figure and a taste for frills, Elena can easily be seen as a doll. Being a lover of Lolita fashion - especially the brand Baby, the Stars Shine Bright - she is always seen in decedent Lolita clothing, Her main style is Old School Sweet and Classic, though she occassionally wears Gothic Lolita. She has long, stright brown hair and brown eyes that she ocassionally changes to blue through the use of colored contacts.

Personality
Depending on whom you ask, Elena can come off as an aloof, somewhat icy person or a very warm and sensative lady. Those who know her personally tend to see the warmer side of her. She is quite intellegent, as shown by her field of work and degree, but tends to only use the knowlege when she is irritated or trying to "one-up" someone.

Elena is also known to have a way with words, both for good and ill and can be slightly manipulative. She posseses a decent knowlege of the occult thanks to a person she only refers to as "Sensei", as well and a great sense of will and stubborness.

History
Born in Washington D.C, Elena receved her Bachalors from George Washington University.

Currently, not much is truely known about Elena's past. In the game, she has mentioned multiple times a mysterious woman who was her mentor before coming the Leia but is now dead. It seems she has also gained her current occult knowlege from the mentor. She also seems to know the current bispecticaled owner of an antique shop in Oahuthat rumors say can grant any wish for a price.

Persona and Abilities
Elena weilds the Persona Atalanta and the Dark Persona Enyo, making her the only non-Fool user to be able to summon more then one Persona. However, both of her current Persona are of the Empress Arcana. She is also one of only two Persona users to be able to summon a Dark Persona sucessfully without loosing control, unlike Adachiin Persona 4. Her Minor Arcana is Cups, thus denoting her element as Ice via game machanics. However, when using her Dark Persona, her element seems to switch to Fire, thus suggesting her Minor Arcana also changes to Swords which represent the element Fire in game mechanics.

Like everyone in the current group, Elena has a tattoo with a crystal in a particular shape and color which she uses to summon her Persona. Elena's normal tattoo looks like a queen made of icy whisps holding an ice-blue butterfly crystal. However, because of the current circumstances, her tattoo has changed to that of a flame upside-down to look like a skirt, a blood-red jewel in the shapre of scimitars as the body and and upside-down crown as the head, giving the apperence of a queen in flames.

The former tatto is located on her outer right thigh while her current tatto is on her outer left thigh.
