Personal History: https://megamitensei.fandom.com/wiki/Elizabeth

Personality: Elizabeth is somewhat alien. She doesn't exactly understand how humanity works and while she knows what things ARE she frequently mistakes how they actually work. Usually things that fascinate her are imagined in the most sinister way possible, given how she viewed an escalator as a punishment and an open sewer grate to be a trap. Things she does understand generally are spiritual or mythological and she tends to go overboard with them, even going so far as to giving a million yen to a fountain just to gain the favor of the "spirit" that lived in it. Elizabeth's biggest issue is she just is beginning to understand how humanity succeeds by coming together. She has MADE the realization but still sometimes defaults to her "Let me handle this!" approach to the world. This is frequently why she meddles in things she's not really wanted in and causes problems as SHE will be the one to fix it! She doesn't know how, but she has lots of heart, and not a whole lot of planning and that will save, well whatever it is she's trying to save. Or at least it will be more interesting than actually trying to figure things out. She did finally come to the understanding that it is the bonds humanity forms with each other which is its greatest strength and ultimately unlocked her wild card ability, but old habits die hard.

While she frequently CAN be aloof about things, if something pings her interest Elizabeth will go in with all her heart and enthusiasm, even if not really wanted there. ESPECIALLY if not wanted there. She crashed a competition to dub the manliest of all men, even though she was a woman, just because it seemed exciting to do so. Her desire to save Minato led her to leave her position in the velvet room and go on a quest to kill Erebus, a monster given life by humanity's desire for self destruction, and she was able to focus her power enough to kill it several times shortly after its resurrection.

Liz doesn't exactly have the highest regard for life, when she was asking for subdual quests she wanted proof of the kills, body parts, when she asked for something to die. While she also asked for curious items from the world outside those were much rarer. When angered Elizabeth's first response is violence, and if she can't solve a problem with violence obviously she isn't using enough of it. Her first attempt at finding herself was to initiate a duel with Minato and her favored tactic of dealing with her brother is threats (ones he probably gives into due to violence in the past but that is never EXACTLY spelled out). That being said she is not quick to anger and tends to believe that when wronged the punishments frequently should match the crime (when her brother framed her for stealing "food" and it was found out her punishment was an implied threat of "he had better make a nice meal for everyone OR ELSE").

Despite all of this Elizabeth is very devoted. While Igor allowed her to see the outside world with Minato, she always returned to being his dutiful attendant and logging the persona that were summoned till the end of both her guest's ordeals. When she was exploring the outside world she knew that doing what she wanted and staying with Minato would lead to him loosing access to her aide in the Velvet Room. When she was Aigis' attendant she did everything she could do to keep Aigis from giving up and falling to her mechanical loss of heart. When those duties were done she stood guard and killed the monster that threatened the soul of Minato twice before setting off to find her own way of killing the monster without killing all of humanity as she viewed the monster grow with power and what she was doing was simply not effective in freeing Minato's soul from the seal. All of this despite her family trying to get her to return home her stubborn devotion to her quest has made her sister realize that the only way she will ever return to the velvet room will be as a "guest" and not a member of it.

Key themes: Preserving the great hero’s work. Why is humanity so self destructive? What are all these fascinating things?

Main Motivation: Returning Erebus to sleep.

Skills: Summon Thanatos: The ability to summon the persona Thanatos, who specializes in debuff magic and direct attack. http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Thanatos Persona Arena version
Read Lost Carcosan: Sure anyone can read the script of the great old ones, but Liz can do it, speak it fluently, and NOT go crazy as well. Note: Singing songs in Lost Carcosan is creepy and may disturb those around her.
Lounge in a Sweet magic chair: Creates a chair made out of magic, chair is invisible but very comfy.
Dance to the Aria of the Soul: So much dancing, screw you and your 8 hour Charleston Cap, Liz’s moves are 1000% Technoier and lightstick raver, all in the low low package of NOT 8 hours, 6 tops. Though she could if she wanted.
Wild Card Persona abilities: The ability to hold more than one persona and train it.
Eat more than a 6 ton trash compactor: She can eat a lot. A LOT.
Identify what is in food from the smell: Self explanatory
Persona Fusion: Elizabeth can take 2 persona and fuse them into a different one. However, she needs access to the Velvet Room to do that, and even with that, she needs many persona to fuse.
Doctor Elizabeth: While her persona generally don’t have too much healing, she manned the doctor’s office in the Q series and knows several potions and such to heal people. Even to bring back from death’s door, just she is not a combat healer.
