This life will be good and beautiful but not without heartbreak. In death comes peace, but pain is the cost of living. Like love, it's how we know we are alive.

About Me
As a human, she's the sociable popular girl in school and the girl next door. She's compassionate, caring, empathetic, kind, intelligent, beautiful, friendly but she can also be pushy, judgmental, selfish, at times prying into other peoples' business, Elena is also athletic and a cheerleader. Her favorite hobby is writing in her journal and says that she's always wanted to be a writer. Elena's "dark side" from the books as a human is never explored because it "didn't ever feel like a characteristic" the show wanted for their heroine. Elena's actual dark side is her "deep, deep connection to other people". Elena's always surrounded by drama. She's always helping around in her community events and Caroline calls her the mothering type.
Like her mother before her, Elena believes in family, honor, loyalty and community. She is shown to be consistently polite, calm and composed, though prone to great anxiety and panic. Despite being something of a skeptic, she has a vivid internal life. She is extremely introverted. She is brave and self-sacrificing, though much of her willingness to save others seems to come from survivor's guilt over her parent's death. She has a strong back bone and never displays a sense of inferiority. However, Elena can also be a hypocrite, and gradually becomes more and more self-absorbed as the seasons continue, but undergoes several huge changes due to trauma, stress, loss and finally healing. She is flawed; not always able to treat her friends with proper respect, and acting in a smothering, if not controlling, manner toward her brother, Jeremy. Elena exalts personal choice and is known for her forgiving nature.
Before her parents' death, Elena used to be "way more fun" and "into everything, very busy".

Bold ItalicEmphasized text For the below text font classes and all of the headers (1, 2, 3, etc) and lyrics, please note the following: I code for ALL sites. Not every website will allow headers to be placed as h1 etc between < these > brackets. For that reason, I turn them into font classes with a period in front and script them as I have done below. If you are on a website that allows regular header, underline, strong, etc coding, you can just use regular header coding for all of the header, lyric, special text labels OR just leave them as they are. They will work for you either way. SEE THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS LAYOUT FOR SPECIFIC DETAILS AND EXAMPLES.

//Darling,you are already in my veins" -Author Unknown Thank you kindly for the add. (^,..,^) I thought I'd give you a bit about my character. I will write up a full bio when I am not busy snacking on tourists. I appreciate your time and look forward to discussing soon.
My character I tend to keep rather simple, she is just short of 600 years old. She lived around 1450 in Puerto Rico, she was a Taino Indian on the island, she was turned in her early twenties. She has spent her time learning to fight with swords and hand to hand along with traveling the world. She has the typical vampire traits, accelerated speed, healing, agility, strength, keen senses, the one extra that sets her apart is a gift for producing and manipulating fire. Its a gift she does not have complete control over, it can emerge in times of anger or extreme emotion. Jade's mood is often connected with her hunger, if she has not fed recently she can grow agitated, angry even hostile. Her personality though I tend to bend depending on who I am writing with and what they are looking for as far as a story. She can be protective etc or she can be an enemy, and everything in between, just depending on which way you would want to go.
//Yes, I know, another Stefan Salvatore and here you are getting a copy and paste greeting. Well first let me say thank you, thank you for either accepting or sending a request. Its great to meet you and always a good day to get to know a fellow writer. This is my first time playing this character and being in this verse. I am very excited to get some plots going. I will say though that this is not my only character on this site so I don't plan on taking on too many. Time being the factor more than anything. That being said, I hope to write with you, get to know you, banter with you, read your writing and all that good stuff. May this find you having a killer day.....ha! Okay,shutting up now. Chat with you soon. ~The Rippers Writer
