	~~Elena is starting to figure out that she~~ is more ~~capable of the adventuring life~~ than she ~~first believed~~. ~~With her problems with Wisp (apparently) resolved at least for now, she~~'s ~~focusing more on what she~~ can ~~do to be helpful than avoiding being a hindrance~~. ~~She's taken it on herself~~ to ~~see that everyone~~ is ~~fed properly~~, ~~even if Tyroth~~ is ~~proving a challenge~~ to ~~figure out exactly what that entails. While nowhere near the team Mom, she does~~ her ~~best to keep the peace when merited~~.		Recent revelations about what Wisp is have her more concerned than she lets on. It's not every day you find out you're the only thing standing between a creature that can unmake reality and the oblivion of most everything you know and love.

			The last thing she wants to do is unintentionally hurt anyone, so her primary goal is to bring her currently misbehaving skill set under control.

	~~Elena has grown quite adept at summoning various weapons/kitchen utensils when needed. Her~~ aim ~~is impeccable, the impressive skill she showed~~ with throwing knives ~~before her death only having improved through Wisp. Her melee skills have grown as well, following her mother's love of swords but not limiting herself~~ to ~~them. She possesses Sonia's fighting instincts~~, ~~yet~~ she is ~~still untrained in many respects~~. ~~In contrast to Elias, her style~~ has ~~more finesse, but her inexperience counters her natural ability. Between the two Elias is still the stronger brawler~~.		'''Natural''':
			A combination of impeccable aim with anything from throwing knives to claymores to battleaxes and burgeoning skill with close combat, she is very much turning into a force to be reckoned with. Her natural skill has been honed further under [[Melog]]'s "tutelage".

	~~The minor healing Wisp showed has carried over to Elena, but~~ seems to have ~~grown~~ in ~~ability~~. ~~It has managed to heal significantly~~ more ~~damage~~ than ~~before, though with a noticeable drain on Elena~~'s ~~body in return~~.		She also seems to have a silver tongue in certain matters. Shop owners rarely know what hit them, and more than once she's managed to drag others into doing what she wants them to cough[[Mihail]]cough.

	~~She has so far used~~ it ~~only once~~ and ~~only when Wisp, but somewhere within~~ the ~~W.I.S.P. programming is~~ a ~~means to generate a defensive energy field. Elias is so far~~ the ~~only one to witness this~~, ~~as Elena has no recollection of it happening~~.		Given her parentage, it is entirely possible her recent signs of unusual strength are entirely natural in origin. Given she was able to easily wield weaponry nearly her size and scale the side of a building carrying two of the heavier team members through pure rage even before the introduction of her terrorbeast core, she may be more her mother's daughter than anyone guessed.

	~~Since the battle with [[Vera Craft\|Vera]] she has also begun manifesting a curious ability to mimic powers used against her. As~~ of ~~now it~~ has ~~only happened when she slips into her Wisp persona~~ or ~~through accidental (perhaps instinctual) use. It so far~~ has ~~only happened when around large sources of energy, and has paired itself with Elena growing more energetic and possibly erratic~~. ~~It was severe overexposure to the energy generated by the Magical Girl curse that caused a breakdown~~ and ~~necessitated a reboot. So far TIME has not encountered anything to trigger~~ this ~~ability again, so how it will effect her now is unknown~~.		'''Wisp Added''':
			Most of these Elena has either not mastered or has no idea she even possesses them. The notable exceptions are healing and weapon summons at this time.

	~~The reboot also seemed to solve her energy issues. It~~'s ~~possible~~ the ~~massive overdose of Love and Justice~~(TM) ~~only gave her a large reservoir to pull from~~. ~~She remains without a primary~~ power source, but ~~between what~~ her ~~body supplies~~ and ~~part~~ of ~~the W~~.~~I.S.P. redesign involving absorbing ambient sources of energy she seems~~ to ~~have her power needs met~~.		As revealed on [[Yuutsume]]'s world, Project W.I.S.P. was actually intended to house a manifested terrorbeast in such a way that the shell (Wisp) would remain intact rather than shatter or be driven completely mad. What, exactly, the purpose of this power source is is unclear, but [[Vicar]] has referred to her as Slayer. In addition to her ability to summon various weapons/cooking utensils and her quick healing, she also possesses some form of energy shield and her mother's signature attack: A Hundred Thousand Blades to Break. An attack so stupidly overpowered that Sonia decided it was a great way to one-shot dragons.

	~~Recently~~ she has ~~started showing signs she isn't as even tempered as she thought she was. She may, in fact~~, ~~possess~~ a ~~strong dose~~ of ~~Dragonslayer~~ blood ~~after all~~. ~~Flying off~~ the ~~handle and succeeding at stupidly dangerous things isn't normal~~. ~~But on Dragonslayer~~ it is.		It seems her mimicry was actually a rapid analysis of various narrative affecting powers by Wisp, recorded for later use and possible neutralization. So far she has shown powers used by [[Vera Craft]], a multitude of parody Magical Girls, flight, and blood magic via [[Demer]]. She has also been introduced to several dozen completely useless powers by [[Winters]].

			What the introduction of the new core means for her is not yet certain. Her abilities are apparently unstable, anything from her knife throwing to her knitting suddenly showing erratic behavior. One can only imagine what it will do to her mood swings.

	Elena is the moral backbone of the Snark family. Her responsible streak led to her to take on the role of caretaker for not just her brother but their father as well, trying to fill in for their absent mother. Most often this took the form of things like making sure they didn't eat week old leftovers or wear clothes that hadn't been washed in three months. She is very good at most household activities (cooking, cleaning, etc.) after years of practice, and is probably the sole reason the male members of the Snark household aren't dead of food poisoning or suffocation by their own filth.

Clothing she makes may actually qualify as a torture device in most cultures. Elias wears what she makes for him without a fuss. Recent events binding her to a terrorbeast may have upped this to an entirely new level.

	Since her transformation into Wisp and the restoration of her soul, Elena has slid back into "Wisp mode" on several occasions, normally when involving significant danger to herself or those around her. It has so far been brief, with Wisp appearing long enough to counter or avoid whatever life threatening situation arises before Elena regains herself. Though initially some incompatibility between the two sides of herself caused memory loss, the events while on Thelmessia resulted in a reconfiguration of the interface with some help from [[Melog]]. Since then Wisp has not resurfaced, possibly because Wisp no longer has to force control to follow her directives.

Elena is starting to figure out that she is more capable of the adventuring life than she first believed. With her problems with Wisp (apparently) resolved at least for now, she's focusing more on what she can do to be helpful than avoiding being a hindrance.
