Further Information

Description

• Yelena descends from a Heroic Lineage.
• She is short, delicate of frame, slightly curvy, and somewhere in her early 30s, with long curly liquid-silver hair.
• She speaks English with a foreign accent; to the untrained ear she sounds a bit like a Russian with an almost elvish lilt, while those who study Linguistics hear predominantly Slavic with some hint of Nordic segment yet also with a peculiar prosody that makes her origins difficult to place.

Rumors

• Yelena is from eastern Europe and she has many secrets, even after her return and Amnesia.
• She was a witch in her previous life.
• She isn’t even a Telos, she’s playing a big brain long con. She’s totally a Shadow Lord.
• Yelena and Aleks fight so hard, it's almost like they're ex-partners. Maybe they were before he was Bitten.
• Weaver-tainted Yelena would in fact make an ideal Shadow Lord.

Quotes

"Home means everything; if not for home and loved ones, what sustains us through this war?"
"I never enter cities. Too much weaver."
"Grateful to find light and open doors here."
--- [Fostern though. That's... unbelievable.] "A hard fought Fostern, I assure you."
--- [But did you die?] "Only momentarily."
"I offered chiminage to spirits of portent and asked to be led where most needed. They led me here."
"Too much time in war form, you start craving war."
"Dying for what you love? Easy. But living for it... much harder."

• If even half of what she endured were done to me, I would not have come out of it alive or sane. - Kyle Spyros
• I don't trust the Telos, but she saved my life, so she has my trust, I will endeavor to repay her. - Truth's Burden
• Telos should not be trusted. But with Yelena . . . there is something about her that is just wrong. More than just being a betrayer of Gaia. She is a danger to all of us. - Aleksey "Aleks" Volkov
• Some would say the Telos betrayed Gaia, and yet they were cleansed and released from Erebus. You don't just pop over there for a weekend, so that tells me their purpose is still to be revealed. Anyone that feels they should automatically be not trusted needs to get control of their fear and paranoia. - Warborn
• "Maybe not a complete waste. Maybe" - Logan Walsh
