Elena Othonos is an Earther from Greece,[2] who was teleported to Innworld.
Appearance[edit | edit source]
She is stunningly beautiful, thanks to her [Beautician] Skills. Her hair is dyed platinum mint green,[3] and trails of it float as if affected by static.[4]
Personality[edit | edit source]
Smart and level-headed, Elena is one of the leaders of the Earther group in Wistram, or at least takes it upon herself to manage them, ensuring that none of them leaks dangerous Earth technology to the mages. She dislikes Wistram for keeping the Earthers captive, though she admits that it isn't that bad.[5]
Elena is argumentative, often losing her temper when dealing with those she considers idiots. However, she has displayed a kinder side while sympathizing with the Earthers who endured traumas, and volunteering to help Malia with therapy sessions. While she is naturally suspicious, she completely trusts Cara O'Sullivan and greatly admires her.
Background[edit | edit source]
Elena was born and raised in Greece. It is implied that Elena grew up poor, as she was forced to drop out of high school to work at a beauty parlor. Despite this setback, she still managed to put herself through university and graduate from a two-year program.[6] She has a dog.[7]
Chronology[edit | edit source]
Huntsong[edit | edit source]
In 2018 Elena was teleported from Earth to the streets of Meronome, Noelictus's capital. She found work at a rental service called "Helpful Servants," who were known for being hard-working, cheap, and happy. Unfortunately, the service was run by Belavierr the Stitch-Witch. All the Helpful Servants, including Elena, were prisoners in their own minds and being used like puppets to harvest emotions from people.
Elena is found by Cara who employs her. Knowing that something is wrong with Elena, the [Singer] tricks her into pushing her out of a second-story building. The incident summons Belavierr, who heals Cara's injuries and permanently loans Elena to the Singer's service, still as a Helpful Servant.
At some point, Elena was freed by Cara, and marched with her against Belavierr at a "village out of hell," forcing the [Witch] to flee Terandria. She traveled as a part of Cara's entourage as they toured through the continent. At some point, Wistram [Mages] tracked them down and offered them sanctuary. Elena volunteered to go to make sure it was a safe place for them.[2]
Volume 7[edit | edit source]
Elena and Aaron are talking about the shock glove he is working on while waiting in line at the buffet when they notice that none of the Golems in the dining hall are moving. Although the Golems soon return to normal, Elena and Aaron are unnerved by this.
While Cara and her group are in Pheislant, they receive a letter from Elena that discreetly confirms that Wistram is not a safe haven.[8]
Elena gives a lecture about the Earth being round, which goes poorly due to the [Mages'] skepticism and belief that their world is flat. Later, she is attending one of the Earthers' therapy sessions, when [High Mage] Telim barges in and offers them Calming Tonics and sleeping draughts. She and Aaron have an argument about whether Wistram could be trusted or not. That night, the Earthers have a secret meeting, where Aarons reveals a potential ally named Emerrhain.
She acts as a spokeperson when most of the Wistram Earthers who confront Archmages Feor and Viltach about Sir Relz and Noass spreading misinformation about Yellow Rivers Plague.[9]
With the help of Palt and the Ullsinoi faction, Ryoka is able to communicate with Elena, who tells her about the Earther situation in Wistram, while also warning that most of the scrying orbs are being bugged by Wistram [Mages].[10][5] Later, she witnesses Ryoka, Saliss, and Maviola's run to save Hethon and Sammial Veltras from the Circle of Thorns.[11]
Volume 8[edit | edit source]
Elena, Aaron, Telim, and Sa'la have a conversation about an upcoming banquet for all the incoming [Mages]. It is revealed that Elena saw Aaron's text message about the Gods, though she does not know who sent it. Later that night, she is one of the onlookers as Grand Magus Eldavin challenges the Archmages.[12]
When everyone is teasing Trey about getting worms, Elena is one of the few who are kind to him. Later, she gives him a tour of the Earther rooms. When Aaron shows them his Iron Man glove, Elena is taken aback by Trey's offer to try it on him.[7]
When nations and organizations are inspired by Joseph and Pallass to broadcast football exhibitions on Wistram News Network, Elena is able to convince the [Diviner] in charge to broadcast some of Cara's music as background.[13]
She is one of the Earthers to meet the Silver Swords and Leon when they arrive to Wistram. Aaron, George, and Elena are unnerved to see Cognita interacting with Cortana on one of the laptops.[14] Later, she becomes worried when Eldavin begins examining some of Aaron's inventions and speculates on potential upgrades.[15]
On the day of Eldavin's confirmation as Archmage, Trey gives Elena a camera filled with recordings of Ac'telios Salash, which horrifies her. She is also shocked when Eldavin unveils his newest innovation, armored suits based on Aaron's design and operated by sixteen Earthers.[16] A few days later, she and the other Earthers listen to Trey's proposal to leave Wistram. She backs him up, offering to take them to Cara in Terandria, confident that they could be free there, though she becomes uncertain when Leon claims that nowhere is safe, having witnessed someone's death despite being high-level. Despite his confession, Elena is determined to go. However, on the day of their escape, they are startled by the announcement that Trey was working for the King of Destruction. While they are unsure of the hopes of escaping, the Silver Swords offer them a chance.[17] However, they are ambushed by several members of the Centrist faction and Golems, with Elena accidentally being struck in the back by friendly fire. At some point, she is accompanying Shadeward Dorumata, when they run into Rasea Zecrew and her crew. Rasea later kidnaps her with some of the Earthers, bringing them on the Illuminary,[18] where she engages in a conversation with the Quarass.[19]
