YOUNG GIRL
Name: Ellinora Day (Ellie)
Color: #f5d139 Sunshine
Age: 9
Nationality: American of German Descent
Home/Financial Status: Middle Class, a small home in the Daisy District.
School: Teufel Elementary
Personality:
Ellinora, who commonly goes by Ellie, is a cheerful and affectionate little girl, the kind of girl to share half of her lunch with you if you didn't have one and hug you if you were sad. The young girl has many friends in school, as she can be very persistent in her insistence to befriend someone and make them feel better. Even though she feels this is selfless on her part, she can come across as bothersome or harassing to someone who would rather be left alone.
Her optimism can be contagious and that's how she likes it! She likes making people happy and is content with just making other people smile. She always tries to think the best of people, even those that might want to tease her.
Ellie's habit of trying to shoulder other people's problems can make her a pretty big doormat sometimes, since she'd be willing to take blame or do someone's work for them if she thought it would make them happy or feel better. It makes her more open to be manipulated or stuck in a bad friendship with someone who would only want to use her.
Ellinora hides her own emotional issues with her over-achieving and kind personality. Her mother Emma suffers from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), and Ellie takes her mother's distance personally. Ellie feels rather guilt-ridden at times, like her mother's depression is somehow her fault or a result of her own inabilities.
She fears abandonment by her mom, as she's attempted suicide before. Despite Ellie's grandmother assuring her that her mother's problems are not her fault and that she is a good girl, Ellie can't help but feel part of the problem.
She has an interest in painting, and spends a lot of time painting pictures for and with her mom. Even when Emma is depressed she'll still paint as part of her therapy, and Ellie likes to do as many things with her mom as she can, like swimming, since her mother works as a lifeguard during the warm summer months. She likes to say she'll be an artist when she grows up!
Appearance: Ellinora is lightly tanned and with freckles from days spent playing outside, with peach-blond hair twined into thick braids that come down past her shoulders and sunny yellow eyes. Her style of dress is fun dresses with bright colors, like yellow and pink and orange. She's an average size for her age, and as a playful young girl can often be skipping and dancing to go places.
History: Ellie's mother Emma was a desperate teenager when she got pregnant at 16. She had been getting almost suicidally depressed at times for reasons she couldn't understand, and thought somehow that having a child would make her not feel so awful and alone. Her child's father was another boy in school she barely knew and didn't bother to keep contact with.
Her parents were disappointed and horrified at first that their daughter was a pregnant teenager, but agreed to support her and her child. When Ellinora was born in January, Emma's depression got worse and she attempted suicide. She was institutionalized briefly and diagnosed with depression, and more specifically, SAD, an apparently hereditary disorder that ran on her father's side. Since then, Emma struggled to be a good mother to her young daughter and had her parents help her take care of her child while she sought treatment and finished high school.
Ellie grew up fairly normally with her mother and grandparents, and formed a close bond with them, as they were like second parents to her. Her grandmother cooked with her and bought her paints, and her grandfather played games with her and took her fishing with him and his work buddies.
She's in 3rd grade now and doing fairly well and making friends, and has a pet cat her grandparents gave her when she turned six. She loves her cat Sunny very much and has him follow her everywhere around the house.
