Eloise Dulaney

Eloise Dulaney is a supporting character in Locals Only!.

## Personality

Eloise is Ronnie's cousin from the city, and the two couldn't get along worse. That's fine for her though, as she enjoys provoking others. She is characterized by her love for provoking others, her bratty nature, and her enjoyment of fashion. While the other Royals tend to err more on the side of breaking the law for fun, Eloise mostly enjoys harmless pranks and practical jokes. Her preference for simple tricks showcases her mischievous side, as she enjoys light-hearted fun at the expense of others. This can be seen when she is with Ronnie, who usually takes himself so seriously that whenever the rug is pulled from beneath him he almost always looses his temper. Eloise of course finds this hilarious, and knows exactly how to prey on his imperfections, made more insulting by her calm, smug tone and whiny northern accent. She is in fact quite skilled in identifying and exploiting people's vulnerabilities. The other Royals like her enough, and can't deny that making Ronnie angry is funny. Even though she enjoys innocent jokes, Eloise has no ambivalence about committing crimes, and doesn't hold authority or rules with any regard. She possesses a good amount of street-smarts, and is usually apathetic in the face of serious situations. As a result, she fits in seamlessly with the other members of the gang, and perhaps even a little too well. Her well-liked presence ability to be more effective at what The Royals do than Ronnie presents a threat for the mouse, causing him to work twice as hard to prove himself whenever Eloise is around.

## Biography

Eloise's family is comparatively wealthier than Ronnie's, although still poor. They are from the inner-city, which helped develop her streetwise fashion and lack of empathy. She moved in with her cousin and uncle against her wishes when her mother had to start working, where she was expected to spend the year before returning to Vonneville.

## Appearance

Eloise is 5'1", making her an inch taller than her cousin. She has black, curly hair groomed in patternless waves and curls held together with grease. She has gray fur and blue eyes. When in school, like most of the greasers, she wears her uniform with the tie loosened, the collar popped, shirt untucked, and sleeves rolled up. Eloise dresses fashionably, though she doesn't have much of a wardrobe to work with. Her most common outfit outside of school is a marron and gray striped button-up tied in a knot at the bottom, a pink jacket with the sleeves rolled up, a burgundy skirt, and tall black rubber boots. She is also seen chewing on a toothpick most of the time.

## Skills and Abilities

Eloise is easy to get along with and doesn't step on too many toes (aside from with Ronnie). Her fellow greasers find her antics funny, and appreciate having another member of the gang.

## Weaknesses

Being a fish out of water, she has a slightly different attitude towards the Royals' goals. She doesn't really care or have the same convictions they do, nor does she share their attachment for their home. This can lead to her acting in a way or saying things that the other Royals would be offended by.
