{ᴀᴘᴘᴇᴀʀᴀɴᴄᴇ} -ʜᴀɪʀ ᴄᴏʟᴏʀ-To quote Jaimie "Her hair is as blonde as the most beautiful of women. Even wet it shines like the sun -ᴇʏᴇ ᴄᴏʟᴏʀ- Her eyes are in between gray and blue, and are very large, which make her seem innocent. -ʜᴇɪɢʜᴛ- 5 foot and 5.5 inches -ᴍᴀʀᴋɪɴɢs- She has many scars from her cancer treatments, though those are minimal. She has an average sized scar on her thigh from a nasty fall a year ago. She has two tattoos, the words "Good vibes" across her heels. They were her mentor's motto, and are etched in her boots as well. -ғᴀᴄᴇ ᴄʟᴀɪᴍ- Amanda Seyfried

{ᴘᴇʀsᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ} -ʟᴏᴠᴇs ᴍᴏsᴛ- There are only two things on earth she could never live without- skating and Jaimie. While Jaimie is a far more recent addition than her thirteen year skating career, she is just as infatuated with him as she is the sport she loves. They both comprise the premise of her thought and she would be lost without one or the other -ʜᴀᴛᴇs ᴍᴏsᴛ- She cannot, and never will be able to, handle people with over confidence and arrogance. They make her blood boil, as they are almost never deserving of the hero worship and praise they recieve. One could reflect upon the ironic fact that her love Jaimie vanRios is described in professional circles as "the cockiest and most arrogant b------ in snowboarding" -ʙɪɢɢᴇsᴛ ғᴇᴀʀ- As a survivor of a particularly nasty bout of bone cancer, she has a justified fear of dying at the hands of something she can't control and knowing it's coming. She has since been determined to live with no regrets -ʙɪɢɢᴇsᴛ ғᴀᴜʟᴛ- She is, like many skaters, a perfectionist. Chalk it up to her need to compete with her brothers and their prestige or her relocation on her own to a foreign country in search of a career, she never accepts anything short of perfection for herself. ᴘᴇʀsᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ From an early age, Elidh was one to always smile and laugh, and bring joy to those around her. She was, however, an entirely different beast in skating. Expressive, emotional and formidabble, she came onto the world's stage at an early age. She is hard on herself, and practices a great amount of self discipline, working at the resort's restaurant/bar, though she does not need to. The one area where her judgement faulters is anything offered her by Jaimie. For the all her consious and better thoughts seem to diappear. She believes in the natural good of the human soul, and that they are more inclined to do good than evil. It is because of this she first attracted Jaimie, with her unique pattern of thought. She is innocent, bright and youthful in mind, and volunteers much of her free time to helping younger skaters or bettering herself.
