Eliza

Eliza Crawford (Full name: Eliza Louise Crawford), better known as Eliza, is the Speaker of the Sea for Neryana and she is a part of a god group called the Sacred Six. Eliza is the daughter of Waza and Penelope. She is half siblings with both William and Jaymes. Sally is her sister-in-law. Eliza is most often seen with Tommy or Philip. Before moving to Neryana in August 9th, Eliza was seen with William and Sally. Eliza is 17 years old.
Eliza's main goal is to bridge the gap between mortals and gods, hoping to find a way the two can go hand-in-hand like they did many, many centuries ago. Since the War Between Realms, her vision has shifted to helping mortals understand that not all the gods are evil and to help her god friends be remembered again.
During the Wither Sickness Wipe, Eliza was working towards getting her memories back and rebuilding her relations with those she once had. She thought that Tommy is a little crazy but with the fact that she does not remember anything after her transformation to a demigod, she believes Tommy.
Eliza's domain is the water of the Terra. She is not in charge of anything because she is a demigod.
==Appearance==

Eliza had long van dyke brown hair, usually in braids. She had celadon green eyes. Her most notable features were her dark cyan fin ears and her gills on her neck. It is unknown how she got the fish features but she likes to think that one of her parents or relative was a fish.

==History==
===Childhood ===
Eliza was born in Wistarea on June 7th, making her a Gemini. At the age of 9, Eliza and William found an uninhabited island not too far from the coast of Wistarea, They jokingly claim the island and would play on it for hours at a time. One day, a ship of pirates came and invaded our island. In her anger, she activated her powers and created a giant wave that almost made the pirates sink. The gods didn't like that and have cursed her. The night after driving the pirates away. Eliza woke up in a dream-like state, with a table of 9 gods and goddesses. To this day, she do not know who was seated at that table and she may never learn. They told her that they have unanimously decided that she should not have this power and become cursed, causing her transformation. All that Eliza remembers about the meeting was a name, Jaymes, she assumes it is one of the children of the gods seated at that table.
===Early Teens===
Later, William and Eliza met Sally at a tavern. William and Sally fell in love with each other at first sight, Eliza also fell in love with Sally. On that day, William and Sally were drinking and dancing like tomorrow was just a daydream. Every day, Sally and William would dance together while Eliza was left on the sideline, hoping her feelings for Sally would die. She never told anyone her feelings for Sally. On their wedding day, Eliza was Sally's Maid of Honor and that hurt Eliza the most but she was happy that Sally was at least in the best hands she could be so, those feelings died that night.
Months later, Sally gave birth to Damen and on that night Eliza ran away. Eliza didn't run away because she was hurt by Sally and William, it was the complete opposite. Eliza ran away because she didn't want to be a bother to the newly mother and father. Ever since then, she had been to many countries and many waters, but nothing felt like home to her, until she came onto the shores of Neryana for the first time.
==Relationships==
Name 	Relation 	Notes
Calix 	Neutral 	Eliza and Calix have a rough start to their bond since Eliza interrogated Calix, believing he was working on dark arts and possibly a god in disguise. Then when finding out that Calix was either of those things, Eliza left quickly, telling Calix if he had questions to ask Philip and Tommy.
Chayanne 	Positive 	Chayanne is Eliza's second favorite child, although she will never tell a soul. Chayanne asked her if she was his sister because of the way she acts around Tommy, and Eliza avoids the whole conversation.
Council of Gods	Neutral 	At first, Eliza hated the Council because they had cursed her and she felt unjust in their judgement. But since the War Between Realms, her viewing of them changed. When she came to them asking for their assistance in stopping the Dark Gods, they helped her and even fought and healed her and her friends. She still doesn't fully trust them but they have changed which Eliza appreciated.
Damen 	Positive 	When Damen and Eliza met, Damen wasn't old enough to remember and was a baby. She gave him the nickname 'Tidelet' and he giggled which brought joy into Eliza's heart. Eliza will sometimes worry about Damen and think about him from time to time, even writing letters to him, although they are never sent out.
Espa 	Positive 	Eliza helped name a few constellations for Espa like Cygnus and Cetus. Besides that, the two haven't interacted much.
Heon 	Neutral 	Eliza and Heon have a neutral relationship. They never really interacted with each other and if they have it was very minor or with their group.
Jaymes 	Neutral/Negative	Eliza and Jaymes have never met but despite this, Eliza is a little salty towards Jaymes because of what his dad did to her.
Kristin 	Very Positive 	Eliza and Kristin seemed to have formed a mother-daughter bond. Even before meeting each other, Kristin and Eliza talked to each other without knowing it. Kristin had sent crows to Eliza. During the War Between Realms, Kristin and Eliza were very close and helped each other out by convincing the Council of Gods to help the mortals, and during the fighting in the war.
Luxifer 	Very Negative 	Luxifer and Eliza, though never met face to face, hated each other. They fought on opposite sides of the war. He almost killed Philip and Tommy, and then made the God of the Undead shoot her, causing her to have her memory erased. Luxifer had killed many people which caused the gods to have a bad name, which makes it harder for Eliza to prove not all gods are bad.
Michael 	Very Positive 	This is Eliza's favorite child and if anything were to happen to him she kill everyone in the room and then herself.
Philip 	Positive 	Despite their first time meeting Eliza was holding Philip's son's body, the two of them have formed a father-daughter type of bond. Both sharing the same friends, Tommy and Kristin, they bonded over them and how much they would protect them. Eliza heard a lot about Philip from Kristen.
Sally 	Positive 	Despite the fact Eliza had feelings for her, they were very close, almost like they had been sisters in a past life. Haven't interacted much in the story.
Tallulah 	Neutral 	Despite being her aunt, Eliza has never met Tallulah nor has she heard about Tallulah.
Tiea 	Positive 	Eliza and Tiea act like they are twins since Eliza, before becoming a Demigod, looked like the twin of Tiea. Tiea is very friendly towards Eliza and Eliza reflects that back to Tiea. Whenever it was just Tiea and Eliza alone, they usually are causing mischief somewhere in the clubhouse.
Toby 	Neutral/Positive	Toby and Eliza don't have much of a bond since they have only met once but they seemed that they would become good friends.
Tommy 	Very Positive 	Eliza and Tommy are very, very close. Since the very beginning of meeting each other, they do not like leaving each other's side. Eliza has wondered what would have happened if she had never met Tommy and vise-versa. They are often seen together and some of the citizens even thought they were dating. When Eliza returned to Tommy after leaving him for weeks, they hugged each other and immediately started talking to each other as if they were long-time best friends. Both of them were curious about each other and their pasts and bonded over them. Tommy introduced Eliza to many of the people she would call her friends and helped her be reintroduced to William. The two of them went on a "date" to the lake. They often act very childish with each other and teased each other a lot. Eliza and Tommy danced and sang together. Eliza helped Tommy with many of his panic attacks. They cuddled on the couch before Eliza lost her memory. Tommy helped her with the panic attack she had when she couldn't remember anything, and he helped her with remembering everything.
Vodes 	Neutral 	Eliza and Vodes have a neutral relationship. They never really interacted with each other and if they have it was very minor or with their group.
Waza 	Neutral/Positive	Eliza sees Waza as her boss and also sort of the reason why she was cursed. At first, Eliza doesn't like Waza because of the curse that was given to her, but as she learns more from him and talks to him, she learns that he isn't that bad.
William 	Positive 	William was the very first person Eliza ever trusted and will trust. William stopped Eliza from leaving Neryana even after hurting Tommy.
