POSITIVE TRAITS

• SOCIABLE — Raine loves people and being around them, so she’s the type to seek out company even with individuals of whom she isn’t fond simply for the sake of conversation
  
• INTELLIGENT — She makes fairly good grades in school, though she’s by no means an exemplary student
  
• KIND — The girl’s just old-school nice and rarely asks for anything in return
  
• ENERGETIC — She’s always bouncing or moving about, which can sometimes interfere with her learning
  
• TRUSTWORTHY — She will carry all secrets she knows to the grave unless she feels it is in the person’s best interest for the secret to be spilled
  

NEGATIVE TRAITS

• REBELLIOUS — She doesn’t like being told what to do, and when someone does, she’ll do her best to go against it, even if these things are small and end up being more “the principle of the thing”
  
• IMPATIENT — She hates waiting for anything, and tends to get antsy very quickly when she does have to wait
  
• FORGETFUL — If she promises to do something, she’ll probably forget she promised in the first place, but she’s very bashful of it
  
• UNRELIABLE — Mostly because of how forgetful she is
  
• STUBBORN — Once she sets her mind to something, she’ll get it done one way or another, which usually makes her rebellious streak even worse
  
• PREJUDICED — Raine is more prejudiced against humans than she is against the other elements, but she’s a stickler for the elemental alliances for the most part

WEAKNESSES

• MISINTERPRETS PEOPLE — Just because she has the information doesn’t mean she understands what it means
  
• DOESN’T KNOW WHEN ENOUGH IS ENOUGH — Coming hand in hand with her stubbornness, Raine is too persistent for her own good and tends to get on people’s nerves because of it

BEST MEMORY
Acquiring her abilities. She was over the moon when she found out she wasn’t entirely normal.

WORST MEMORY
Finding out her parents want her to marry Knox—he was her best friend (and still is), but she has no romantic interest in him, nor the desire to pursue a relationship that would be against what she considers his very nature

LONG-TERM GOAL
She wishes she had the right figure to be a ballerina, but she’s ended up abandoning that dream. She plans to go to school for a degree in theater and use that to become a stage manager, seeing as she doesn’t have the nerves to preform on stage.

SIBLINGS

Dorothy Ellison (#25), Secretary.

HISTORY

The Ellison pair already had four daughters when Raine was born and, quite frankly, her father was hoping for a son when she came around. Despite the initial disappointment, the parents adored her as much as the others. Her early childhood was simple. Her older sisters took turns dressing her up and playing with her as her parents watched or worked to keep a rather nice lifestyle at its peak. It was by no means lonely, and having so many siblings who adored her supported Raine into becoming a confident, sociable young lady. She could just as soon have been a beauty queen, had her parents been so cruel or she at all interested. And yet, she wouldn’t have fit into that for the sake of almost tomboy-y energy. She wasn’t afraid to take on the world, even when she was little and skinning her knees on the pavement or getting carpet burn for various schemes. When a pet got out of the house, she was the one who chased after it. She sometimes got her sisters involved, and encouraged the whole group be rowdy for the sake of fun.

As one of her more elegant pursuits, Raine always wanted to be a ballerina after she saw one of her slighter sisters practicing a few steps. Her parents agreed to put her in lessons with the aforementioned sister, but she ended up not having the right figure, which devastated her, and she had to quit. After she met Knox, she’s explored other styles of dance through him and his lessons, though this didn’t occur until high school. He teaches her steps on occasion, and she is the only one with whom he’s able to practice without losing his nerve. The loss of the ballerina hopes, however, also prompted her to try her talents in other fields, which is how she took up acting and drama in her middle school, something she continued to chase throughout her later years in school.

The elemental line was strong in the family, so it was no surprise when Raine came into her powers. All her sisters had either been a wind or a water—the temperaments were oddly similar in that sense—and she fit in with the pair who had become water elementals. She discovered her abilities at the pool, where she caused a tsunami-like wave due to her excitement at going down a new slide. She started at the academy the same year, a place where she thrived because she loved being special so much. It imbued her with a sense of self that she appreciated in the crowded household. And Through a party to which her parents dragged her, she met Knox. The two became quick friends, with trust growing far more quickly than either expected. She found out, and was rather insulted when she did, that their parents wished them to marry. She apologized to Knox and said she couldn’t do so unless she loved him—he spilled his secret, and it pretty much released her from feeling obligated to try anything.

Since then, she has dated and messed around, largely to her parents’ disapproval as they still supported the marriage. She moved through the school without much trouble, thriving when it came to her elemental classes.
