Jane "El" Hopper (born as Jane Ives), better known as Eleven, is one of the main protagonists of the Stranger Things Arc. Her character is portrayed by young actress Millie Bobby Brown.

## Backstory

Eleven was kidnapped and raised in Hawkins National Laboratory, where she was experimented on for her inherited telekinetic abilities.

## Biography

After escaping the lab, she was found by Mike, Lucas, and Dustin, who were currently searching the woods for Will Byers, who had gone missing around that time. Upon discovering her abilities, Mike believed that she could use her powers to help them find Will. During their time together, she and Mike formed a strong bond and quickly grew to like each other. She also developed friendships with Mike's friends as well as Hulk and Wanda Maximoff, who also tagged along in their quest to find Will.

It was ultimately revealed that during a lab experiment, she made contact with a powerful creature from another dimension that Dustin dubs as a Demogorgon. The Demogorgon arrived in Hawkins when Eleven accidentally opened an inter-dimensional gateway, allowing it to enter our world.

In an attempt to protect her friends, Eleven eventually faced and destroyed the Demogorgon in a showdown with Hulk while Wanda distracted Hawkins' Labs' forces at Hawkins Middle School, but Eleven mysteriously vanished in the process.

## Personality

As she was raised in Hawkins Labs and completely deprived of socialization for a majority of her youth, Eleven is shown to be timid, socially withdrawn, and extremely cautious of other people that she meets, such has her reluctance to speak upon meeting Mike and his friends. She eventually became fiercely protective and showed unyielding loyalty towards those who cared for her, especially to Mike whom she fell in love with, and went as far as to fight the Demogorgon with Hulk by her side when it threatened to harm her new friends.

Eleven would be locked in a cramped room as punishment at Hawkins Labs, potentially for hours on end. These painful experiences lead her to develop severe claustrophobia. She also showed some signs of post-traumatic stress disorder, frequently remembering her harrowing experiences at the lab following her escape. Luckily, Hulk helped Eleven get over her trauma, as he had experience with abusive parent figures.

Due to a very limited vocabulary, she could not effectively communicate her thoughts and emotions and had little to no understanding of simple concepts such as friendships or promises. These difficulties communicating often lead to misunderstandings with her friends. Despite this, she was a quick learner and now understands most social cues.

After nearly an entire year of being free from Hawkins Labs, Eleven's vocabulary expanded significantly due to help from her friends, especially Wanda, who also helped Eleven amplify her powers, as they both had telekinetic powers.
