Eliana is based off a sunrise. They have always been associated with the sun arriving; they are spectacularly warm, amiable, genuine and honest. They are corporeal all which people associate with morning, with summer, with clear, empty skies. Eliana is quite a soft-spoken individual, unlikely to raise their voice no matter what the situation, reluctant to fight. They have a knack for finding friends far pushier than they, and end up being presented in conversation for their unique, clever theories. Eliana is a diurnal creature; they become sleepy the moment the sun slips below the horizon, when the sky goes purple and gold, and they sleep heavily until the sun returns. Then they are, between one breath and another, awake and extraordinarily happy to be so. They tend to sing to keep themselves company as they get ready for the day, with the sun still distant and the morning air cool.
Also to the note of a sunrise, Eliana is all about change. While they dislike tremendous change in their own life they encourage their friends to be open to it; they understand that some good things may come only when certain doors are open, and that sometimes you have to open the door yourself. They resist change in their daily schedule but can be slowly acclimated to it, if precaution is taken. They love learning new things, the one easy exception they will make to change. They are easily led about by a more dominant personality, such as the sun circling the moon, and don't mind being told what to do. In fact they quite like it; their life is more stable if someone else has taken charge, and they appreciate the methodical pace of everyday living.
What many people don't understand about Eliana is that their name is not a simple coincidence but that Eliana is in fact the child of a sun deity, an immortal star stuffed into a mortal body for the sake of curiosity and learning. They fall asleep so quickly when the sun sets for they share their energy with their solar guardian; and when the sun slinks below the horizon they are so immediately exhausted that they curl up to sleep. They rise with the sun for the same purpose, revitalized with their reunion, bursting with the easy happiness of seeing their parent and feeling the warmth they shed.

Despite being the heir to the sun, Eliana has no special powers or abilities. They hide what they are only for fear of alienating their mortal friends, not to secret some amazing power. The exception to this is that Eliana is as immortal as their fellow stars are; they will not die, but rather return to their home when they grow tired of the mortal realm. So far their curiosity has found no end, and they chase the mortal's stories eagerly and with great satisfaction. The sun fears losing them here; they fret over their child's love for the mortals, and watches Eliana closely. But so far, after a few happy years in their present body, they remain with their feet firmly on the ground.
