Eloise Marcella Myrmorn is the princess of Atharia. She is the younger sister of the Emperor.

She is a synthetic human created by Lilith Yohan. Her existence is cause for great speculation and controversy amongst the masses.

She is one of the POV characters in A Song for Storms.

Appearance

Eloise has a near-uncanny resemblance to her creator. She has long, dark blue hair and navy eyes. She’s usually seen wearing makeup similar to her creator’s: red eyeshadow and a dark liner under her eyes.

Despite being a synthetic human, Eloise is in possession of sharp ears characteristic of elves or vampires.

Eloise is usually seen smiling, ‘as if there is a joke that only she is aware of.’

Despite her famed beauty throughout the realm, most view her personality as far too off-putting to truly view her as someone attractive.

Personality

Eloise is rather proud and spoiled. Her brother describes her to be infuriating and destructive, and says that everyone in the palace is under the mercy of her whims. Lilith calls Eloise troublesome.

Despite the less-than-pleasant descriptions of Eloise, she proves herself to be competent and trustworthy. She is frequently compared to her elder brother; while Mikaela was buckwild and irresponsible during his youth, Eloise was simply mischievous. Much to Mikaela’s chagrin, Eloise was seen as someone far more charming than he was during youth.

Eloise has a tendency to tease. She held an interest in magic and would use it to trick and play jokes on others. She loved to parade her power around and would summon entities to do her work.

According to Aisha, Eloise is frequently seen ‘sharing intel’ with the cautious and calculating crown prince YiChen Wei of Xueke. Lilith corrects Aisha, claiming it is simply ‘trading gossip.’

History

Background

Having been created and raised by Lilith, Eloise learned to mostly rely on magic and never perform physical labor.

Due to being created with Lilith’s magic, she inherited a great portion of it as well. As a child, she was unintentionally incredibly destructive; both a cry and a laugh from her would cause windows to shatter. Her emotion ruled over her abilities, causing great trouble for her creator.

While Lilith and Aisha had their hands full dealing with the damage little Eloise did, Mikaela would try to discipline Eloise the same way he was disciplined. He would lecture the girl how to become a ‘proper lady’ and would punish her for being destructive by taking away her toys. Eloise would only reply by fighting her older brother over a hundred years her senior. The siblings would then wrestle— Eloise would use her abilities to attack her brother, and Mikaela would restrain his younger sister.

Once Eloise grew to be a teen, she preferred to spend her time networking rather than getting into fights with her older brother. She befriended the Xueken prince YiChen Wei, and the two quickly grew close. Many, however, liken their relationship to one of a cat and their owner; Eloise would get into trouble and YiChen would pull her out of the situation.

Abilities

  • Superhuman strength — As Lilith's creation, Eloise inherited the witch's 'skin of iron'.
  • Pyromancy, Hydromancy, Anemancy, Geomancy — Eloise is able to control basic elements to her will.
  • Sorcery — Eloise holds control over various magical fields.
