BiographyEdit

Initially a priestess of the Great Mother Goddess, Eleni became pregnant from a temple worshipper she only saw once and refused to give the child up and thus had to leave the temple. Her pregnancy didn't have anything to do with ritual sex, she was probably tired of temple life[3]. She moved to Spindle Lane in the Lower City, where she became a healer, raising her son, George, alone.[1] George introduced her to Alanna of Trebond when Alanna was a page in disguise who needed to hide her menstrual cycle, and Eleni became her ally, taught her ladylike manners and provided her with a pregnancy charm. Eleni was introduced to Myles of Olau (the adoptive father of Alanna of Trebond) by her son George when a rival of his broke the Rogue's code and attacked her (under the code non-combatants are left alone) worrying George enough to place her under Myles' protection. Myles and Eleni subsequently married, making her Baroness of Olau.

After her marriage, Eleni continued to serve as a healer in Olau and Pirate's Swoop. She has three grandchildren by George, and three great-grandchildren by Aly, Rispah is her niece by an unknown sibling, and Beka Cooper is her ancestor.
