Elon

Elon is one of the three main characters of Cat Ghost, first introduced in CatGhost 1 Birthday.
==Description==
Elon is introduced as a white cat with cream ears, legs and tail, and light blue eyes.
In her human form, Elon has long bright red hair and blue eyes, usually dressed in a grey dress with a light blue apron.
Her bat form retains the same colour scheme as her cat form.
Elon's skeleton form has a red skull and a bloodstained brown dress.
In CatGhost 3 Window, while having a demonic voice, she transforms into a snake-like horned creature.
==Personality==
Elon is usually rather calm, but can quickly get mad at others, namely Gideon. When angered, her eyes will start to glow red and her voice becomes a deep demonic rumble. She says that she also misses having a body, but seems to be happy with now looking "adorable" and in fact, appears to be rather vain. She is, however, not happy with her bat form, and shows great dislike towards it.
While she apparently cares a lot about Naarah, and is "worried sick" about her when she flies off into a mysterious portal, she is also shown to be ruthless and brutal. One example is her murder of Robert D. in CatGhost 5 Banana, whom she also cuts up and makes into pancakes to silence him. Another case is her reaction to seeing the frog in CatGhost 9 Welcome Home, since her first reaction is to try to murder it.
==Abilities==
Elon can conjure fire from her paws. It was also mentioned and seen that she can curse others, such as Gideon. In some instances, she has used teleportation powers.
Elon also transforms into a snake-like monster (referred to as her 'demonic' form by fans) when angry. When asked why she transforms, she acts defensive and says "you would too if you went through what I went through. You feel a certain way, you're gonna be a certain way".
==Appearances ==
===In Episodes===
Like the other main two characters, Elon has appeared in almost every episode of CatGhost.
In CatGhost 1 Birthday, Elon and Naarah celebrate Gideon's birthday. The two constantly annoy Gideon throughout the episode and the episode after.
In CatGhost 3 Window, Elon receives a pocket mirror as a surprise gift from Naarah. Upon looking into the mirror, Elon encounters The Watcher. Elon gets frightened and blames Gideon it, not knowing that the gift was from Naarah. She reveals her demonic form when scaring Gideon.
In CatGhost 4 Circle, Elon tries to exorcise Naarah after Gideon accidentally disturbed the ritual she and Naarah were trying to complete.
In CatGhost 5 Banana, Elon gets nervous when Robert D. notices and recognizes her. She tells Gideon and Naarah that she will "get the help he needs". The next day, Elon serves Gideon and Naarah banana pancakes, implying that Elon killed Robert instead of helping him. Elon also climbs up to the Attic, revealing her cages for the first time.
In CatGhost 6 Hole, Elon wakes up to find a portal outside the Cabin. Later on, she helps Naarah in returning back from the Void.
In CatGhost 7 Key, Elon gets concerned about the snowing occurring around the area. She enters the portal and finds Key. Elon asks Key several questions until she is warped back to the Cliff, where she informs Naarah that the world will be ending soon and that there is nothing they can do about it.
Elon appears in Void 02 having a short conversation with Malone in the Dark Forest.
In CatGhost 8 Judgement, she appears along with the rest of the cast in a strange smoke-like form, and answers questions from viewers, until the question "Why did you run away" causes her to panic.
From CatGhost 9 Welcome Home onwards, Elon appears in her new bat form. She is seemingly quite upset about this change.
In the same episode, Elon encounters Malone. She gets incredibly furious once she meets Malone, but slowly gets more frightened as their conservation goes on.
In CatGhost 11 Confrontation, Elon digs up a hole with Malone watching. While digging, she rants about Malone not helping her in the task. Elon is seen at the end of the episode leaving Malone.
In CatGhost 12 Resistance, Elon manages to capture Bethany in one of her cages. She soon gets in a fight with Naarah, which ends in Naarah leaving Elon and disintegrating. Elon becomes frustrated and exclaims that she will still be fine even without the assistance of Naarah.
In CatGhost 13 Acceptance, Elon gets tormented by the Watcher and the Skinwalker after having a showdown with Malone. After some time, she finally breaks down after coming to realize what she has done. She apologizes to Naarah and admits that she is alone. Elon then disintegrates like Naarah soon after. Later on the episode, she joins Gideon and Naarah in the Throne fusion. In the last scene, Malone asks what she will do now that she has the world in her hands. She responds with saying that she will do nothing with it.
This marks the last appearance of Elon.
===In Games===
====Happybirthday====
Elon appears in skeletal form in the Dark Forest in Happybirthday. When talked to, she will usually say “It burns! I can’t feel my skin.” although sometimes she will mention that she is trapped in a jar like a fly or that she has “taken on her new form”.
====Window====
Her skeleton also appears in Window in form of a jumpscare when the player types the word "murder".
====Unholy Circle====
Elon's human form is a possible player character in Unholy Circle.
====Banana====
Elon hunts the player in the game Banana, seen stalking the player in cat form and ending the game with a jumpscare of her demonic form if the player is caught.
====Dark Cavern====
While Elon never directly appears in Dark Cavern, the "wheel poem" seems to reference her running away from the wagon and her family.
====Leak====
Elon is seen in human form with Naarah in Leak, in which both characters are chased by Busts. Elon also appears in several of the endings in Leak. A young (human) Elon appears in the Circle ending with Malone, Key, and an unknown crowd of people. She appears hunched over the cake with Naarah in the "Libation" ending. In the "Fate" ending she appears as a child laying at Malone's feet.
====Pertinence====
The game Pertinence shows Elon running from the wagon and meeting Malone as a child.
===Exit===
There are a total of eleven images of Elon that can appear in Exit, more than any other character or object. Most of them show her in her normal human form, one is of her skeleton, one shows her together with Naarah, one shows Malone holding her as a child, and one appears to show her as a child with her family.
==Relationships==
===Naarah===
Elon and Naarah appear to be good friends and are often seen teasing Gideon together. In CatGhost 4, they even perform a ritual together to stop "bowels of evil from leaking into the sanctuary", before being interrupted. A picture drawn by Naarah shows that she considers Elon to be her "bestest best friend". Elon comments on the picture only saying "that crazy kid...", showing that she might also feel some kind of affection for her. In CatGhost 6 she saves Naarah from the hole and tells her that she was worried sick about her.
When Naarah questions Elon's ways in CatGhost 12, they have a heavy argument, which results in a sad Naarah telling Elon that she can no longer follow her. Elon acts with defiance, saying that she does not need her anyway.
In CatGhost 13, Malone accuses Elon of only using Naarah, and "cast[ing] her away like a tool". Elon appears unapologetic at first, but after her realization that she is completely alone, finally apologizes to Naarah.
According to Naarah the two met in a campsite in a forest, where they became best friends right away. Elon, however, remarks that she very much wanted her to leave, and almost killed Naarah.
===Gideon===
There appears to be a kind of love/hate relationship between Elon and Gideon. While she does want to celebrate Gideon's birthday with a surprise party, Elon appears to be using the party mostly as a way of tormenting him for her and Naarah's amusement. Elon does not take Gideon seriously and is often very disrespectful towards him, although he seems to do the same on several occasions. Elon describes Gideon as "nosy".
===Bethany===
Bethany has on multiple occasions expressed great dislike of Elon and tried to save Naarah by pushing all the blame for her actions onto her. Elon has only been seen interacting with Bethany once, in CatGhost 12, where she traps Beth in a cage, saying that she finally gets "what she deserves [...] after everything she put [Elon and Naarah] through".
===Malone===
Elon and Malone seem to have a complicated history and relationship. Malone found Elon, starving, sick, and dying, and took her in, as seen in the Fate and Circle endings of Leak, as well as in the game Pertinence. However, after some time, Elon left Malone due to unspecified reasons, as also seen in CatGhost 11.
In CatGhost 13, Malone says that she took Elon in because she saw "a beautiful heart that had been bruised", and thought that it could be "restored" with enough care. She then admits that she was apparently wrong. When she explains to her the truth about the universe, the argument escalates.
According to Elon, Malone is also the reason she is "trapped" in the first place, although details are unknown.
Elon advises that Malone should be feared, and that nothing she says can be trusted.
===The Watcher ===
Elon seems to be afraid of The Watcher, running from her when she sees her in the pocket mirror. When asked who 'the girl in the mirror' is in CatGhost 8, Elon hurries to say that she is "nobody important". She reacts with suspicion whenever she is asked about the Watcher or whenever the Watcher is mentioned. When she is finally forced to confronted with the Watcher in CatGhost 13, she just tells it to stop judging her.
===Skinwalker===
Elon also seems to be afraid of the Skinwalker. In CatGhost 13, the Skinwalker seemingly possesses the Watcher and torments Elon. Elon becomes frightened and breaks down. The Skinwalker explains that she was the one that created it, when she and Naarah failed to perform a ritual correctly.
Elon does not have any other interaction with the Skinwalker, but was twice seen being possessed by it.
==Fate==
===Early life and death===
Desperate to take control of her life and the world around her, Elon ran away from her family's wagon as a young girl for unknown reasons. Malone, who found her in a very poor state, raised her and was presumably the one to teach her about witchcraft. At some point, Elon met Naarah, whom she tried to kill at first, but later warmed up to. Naarah eventually promised her to help with a ritual, which she then tried to back out of because "it hurts too much". Elon convinced her to do it anyway. This was likely the ritual that is responsible for the creation of the Skinwalker & the one where Naarah sacrificed Azure.
At some point, Elon was judged by the council and executed via burning at a stake. The stake that Elon was burned at can be seen twice: knocking the word "Excruciate” as seen for a single frame in CatGhost 2 on the door in the game Joke reveals a picture of the stake, and what appears to be Elon's ashes next to the stake appear in the Tony Crynight Speedpainting Video. A purple jar in Banana will give Elon's birth and death dates as 1631 and 1650 respectively, meaning that she died at the age of 18 or 19, depending on whether she died before or after her birthday that year.
Upon being asked about Elon, Key will mention that she “vanished” and is currently “in a jar”. it will also give her the title of “Temptress” and confirm that she, like Naarah, died in 1650 at the hands of the Council. In one of the Live Sessions it called Elon a thief. Another short scene in CatGhost 2 shows a picture of a jar that appears to be filled with ash, possibly the jar referenced by Key and the red skeleton form of Elon in the Dark Forest. This could mean that she is still aware that she is trapped in a jar.
Several Jar Messages in Banana also seem to reference Elon's death:
*Up in smoke. Down in flames.
*The screaming continued. Until sunrise. Ash smeared the ground of which a soul had once existed.
*Bury her ashes and prevent the spread of her evil ways.
The jar "The fires rage hot, and documents burn." may also be related to Elon's fate, though what 'documents' are referred to is unknown.
=== Events of CatGhost===
When and how Elon ended up in the world of CatGhost, along with Naarah and Gideon, is unknown.
After capturing Bethany and burning bridges with Naarah, Elon thinks she is in control of her situation, until the true nature of her and the universe is explained to her by Malone. Being then forced to confront her actions by the Watcher and the Skinwalker, she breaks down, and realizes that she is alone. Feeling the guilt and the weight of her actions, she admits that she is a monster, and wants to change. Elon apologizes to Naarah, after which she is somehow "absorbed" into Key along with Naarah and Gideon.
==Trivia==
*Elon appeared in the Cat Ghost Youtube channel's first, second, and fifth icons.
*Elon appears in both her cat and skeleton forms on the Cat Ghost Advertisement.
*In is revealed in CatGhost 5 that she keeps an attic full of cages, some of which have creatures inside them.
*The light brown part of the clothes on her skeletal version have a few pixels that are a slightly different color (hex number 7A6B5E instead of 7C6B5E). These pixels spell out the letter "C".
*The image that leads to the download of Unholy Circle at the end of CatGhost 4, when unscrambled, shows Elon's human form.
*One of the playable characters in Unholy Circle appears to be based on Elon.
* Elon is Irish.
*Elon's favourite pizza topping is "small flightless birds".
* According to Naarah, the symbol that appears in the Tony Crynight Speedpainting Video "belongs to Elon".
*it is possible that Elon might have murdered her parents while running away from the wagon.
**The evidence of this is in Pertinence where in Elon's starting sprite she can be seen holding what appears to be a knife in hand.
**Further more, where Elon cuddles up in the wagon, we can see corpses of what is presumed to be her parents, albeit in a lifeless, frozen state.
**To add more evidence to this theory, one of the flashing images in the last episode, is her walking away from the wagon during a blizzard with blood splattered near it.
**In episode 13, Acceptance, the Skinwalker calls Elon a "murderer".
