Elenei was always a somber girl, even from a young age, there was always a certain reserved cloudiness behind her eyes, contemplative of something that would upset lesser men to a greater degree than the slight sadness that seemed to be a permanent feature of her face. almond-shaped eyes, piercing, dark and somber all rolled into one, rest between a frame of windswept, but chic and trimmed brunette hair. She keeps her hair clearly longer than a pixie cut or a bob-- but also shorter than a typical shoulder length hair cut-- when it grows much longer than this she tends to braid and pony tail before cutting to this 'in-betweener' length.

She keeps her ears hidden-- yet spending a few minutes with her will reveal that she is a woman who listens far more than she ever speaks. Her stony face reveals little beside the mere reality that she is thinking-- although scarcely will her expression ever give away that she is thinking of other people. She isn't a serious woman, often quick to smile. Though, she keeps her cards close to her chest, she may laugh-- but she wants you to wonder "Why did she like that joke?" Her lips, in their default state, are very subtly turned downward, just a tick, it's difficult to tell whether this from a general displeasure, or a simple force of habit. Regardless, her lips themselves are pert, caught somewhere in-between being thin and heart-shaped, and they are of a pale salmon shade-- it is very clear that her lips are abnormally pale, furthering a powdered, regal appearance of her face.

While not quite gaunt, her cheeks reveal that she has missed more meals than she should-- it can be said that her dimples do contour with the concave nature of her cheeks, and give her a very bright and pleasant smile. It is rare for her to do so, however, as previously mentioned. However, to those who know her intimately, this simply means that her rare smiles are completely genuine. Her nose is perfectly sculpted and roman, and almost serves as a pillar for the frame that is Mel's 'long' face.

That is how one would describe it, typically-- her face is long both metaphorically and quite literally, when she was younger she found a common nickname of her's to be horseface-- however as she's come into womanhood it has become something that sets her apart, giving her the air of a tragic noble, sharp facial features within a soft, long frame, and a distant, solemn personality give her a Byronesque Romantic visage. Clearly responsible for this is her multi-cultural background-- her father was a human male of Chinese and Vietnamese ancestry, and her mother is a Spanish-French Monegasque Witch.

However, certain large factors of her appearance, such as her androgynous hairstyle, often dyed with streaks of blue, her well maintained eyebrows, her pale complexion, and her single, black wing-- come from more than genetics.

Years spent training at night with her coven, hiding in shadows and huddled over fires in the pale moonlight have changed what should have been a Mediterranean olive-tan skin tone, reminiscent of the early sunset, to a skin tone that is much milkier in color-- it is even, save for the occasional blemish, and very soft to the touch.

After years of ingesting potions imbued with her own magical energy, she has managed to physically maintain features of the animals she specializes in. Her right wing has grown large to compensate for the her difficulty in ever growing a permanent left one-- she can't fly, but the wing is strong enough to propel her jumps by a little over her own height-- 5'8"-- can move upwards of 100 lbs of weight, can lighten falls and generally act as a third, muffled limb. The wing is 8'6" at it's longest, and is slick like a raven or a crow's.

She's thin, all around-- often to the point of causing confusion to her sex from a distance. Having the skinny, well-maintained body of an athlete-- albeit one eats much less than they should, and drinks more potions than intended for any one person. Due to this, she can appear to be much frailer than she actually is-- she's fast, and has quite a bit of endurance and flexibility to boot.
