Editing RWBYTD:Elissa Ithakos (section)

==Personality==
Elissa’s hyper-competitiveness is made more tolerable by not being as fundamentally selfish as it could be.  On a team, she’ll pull the weight of two, just to make sure everyone else is properly supported.  She’ll make the bully give back all the lunch money, and twist his arm until he writes out a receipt for interest owed.  She’ll go all out to get a smile out of a friend having a bad day, even if she has to look the fool to do so.  And while she’s quite happy to threaten otherworldly retribution upon people making moves on her mother for the family fortune, she’s generous to anyone who isn’t working an angle on her.

It’s only when she has nothing left to go charging after that she lets the strain and weariness show.  Or when someone reminds her of her father.


She seems able to read her hawk's reactions with unusual acuity for a human, and often uses him as a scout.

Though this may be because there's often a camera hidden in his harness.
