Personality:

Strengths
♫ Musical Genius. Elliot has all the signs of a musical genius. He's extremely talented at music, being able to play many different instruments (his main ones are violin and piano). But beyond that, he's capable of memorizing rhythms after hearing them once and master new musical concepts in a very short amount of time.

♫ Hardworking. He recognizes that natural talent only gets you so far, so he's also extremely devoted to mastering things he deems relevant. He'll practice for hours on end, whether it be with music or with magic or something else. He's something of a perfectionist, so he holds himself to an incredibly high standard, and won't settle for anything less.

♫ Gentle. Elliot is a gentle, empathetic and kind person. He's thoughtful to the feelings of others and does his best to help wherever he can. While he's not above the occasional snarky remark, he's usually the nicest of Class VII. Forgiveness comes easy to him as well, such as when he welcomed Crow back with open arms despite everything that happened. He has no deep reason for being so kind, in fact he even admits that he likes helping people because "that's just who I am".

♫ Willpower. As gentle and anxious as Elliot is, beneath the surface lies an iron will that's only hardened as time's gone by. Despite being a musician that'd rather be on a stage than a battlefield, Elliot always rises to the call to fight for what's right. Once he figured out the path he wanted for himself, he refuses to let anyone take it from him. And even though he's from a violent world full of constant battles, he's determined to to heal hearts and bring peace with music.

Weaknesses:
♫ Anxiety. It's safe to say that Elliot is almost constantly feels some level of anxiety. The list of things he's scared of would go for a very long time, and it's likely he suffers from some anxiety disorder. While he's gotten better at managing it as he's gotten older, the feelings haven't gone away. Under enough stress, it can still get the better of him.

♫ Non-Confrontational. Elliot dislikes conflict and tries to avoid it where he can. This can be from fights or telling someone that they're annoying him. This can be a problem as it'll lead to problems getting prolonged. He has gotten a little better at that, recognizing that sometimes he does have to fight for what he wants- but his first reflex is still to avoid conflict where he can.

♫ Perfectionist. Elliot is an extreme perfectionist when it comes to crafts he's invested in. This can lead him to do things like overwork himself if allowed. According to his sister, he'll stay up all night working on music if you let him. This can also impact his working relationship with others if they aren't willing to put in the same level of commitment. To give you an idea, friends who worked with him have described him as a "drill sergeant" and many seemed a little scarred by the whole experience. He truly is his father's son.

♫ Low Self-Esteem. Unsurprisingly for someone who is affected by anxiety and a perfectionist streak, Elliot has really low self-esteem when it comes to his own skills. He is quick to degrade himself, and very slow to sincerely accept praise. He is extremely talented, but you'd never know it by talking to him. Thanks to his friends, he's been working on this the past few years so he's more confident than he's ever been -- which means he sounds very modest rather than just outright tearing himself apart. Yeah. It's still a work in progress.


Greatest Motivations
As an adult, Elliot wants to heal hearts and bring peace to his world with the power of music. Traveling all over Erebonia and fighting in two wars, Elliot's seen a lot of suffering. All these experiences left a strong impact on him, forcing him to grow up much faster than most. But instead of letting it break him, it caused him to find and strengthen his resolve. Music has a power of its own, and he understands it can change the world in ways weapons never could.

Mundane Interests
Music is his main passion, and also his main activity. Besides practicing and performing, he enjoys giving music lessons to children and learning new instruments. Outside of his music obsession, Elliot likes playing bar games such as cards and pool, cooking, traveling, and gossiping.

New Situations
Step one, of course, is to internally scream.

After that vital step is taken, Elliot likes to get a handle on the situation by interacting with others! He'll do this by seeking out people that are different than him and seeing if he can get along with them. If this succeeds, it'll help him feel less nervous about the situation. If it doesn't, well I suppose he repeats step one.

Powers:

♫ Orbal Arts. Using a device called an orbment, Elliot can use elemental magic from seven different elements (earth, fire, water, wind, time aka dark, space aka light, and mirage aka whatever doesn't fit in the others). What types of magic he can use depends on his orbment's set up and the quartz he has. Technically you can set him up to use almost any spell but his element specialties are water and space, and his default set-up is usually geared towards healing.

♫ Orbal Staff. His staff works basically like a catalyst where it shoots magic projectiles (bubbles in his case). These projectiles will ignore physical defense. His staff has a special feature to turn into a violin.

♫ Other Magic. Elliot has a few other magic tricks that don't really fit into the orbal art categories. His music can be used for healing purposes and curing curses (if it's not too entrenched anyway). He can also do a soundproofing spell and trap people in a deep sleep or nightmares. How? I don't know. Bards are mysterious, as always.

Inventory:
- Violin
- Orbal Staff (depowered)
- ARCUS II (aka his orbment, depowered) with the Canon Master quartz (which is a healing/water quartz - also depowered). As for the lesser quartz idk we'll cross that bridge later they're all depowered anyway.

Vision: Anemo
Reason: Elliot is a bard that has dreams for a gentler future for his world, so you don't get a clearer reason than that. Besides that, Elliot has a love for freedom. He likes being able to choose his path, and can get resentful of anyone who forces him a different way. He'd fit right in with Mondstat honestly.

Role: Healer/Support
