Eleanor Schariac

* Human
* Pseudo-Herrscher

**Eleanor Schariac** is part of the Schariac family: a family that is one of the main pillars against the Honkai.

## Appearance

Eleanor has honey blonde hair that goes to her back. When holding Black Abyss her hair began whitening at the ends-- and it seemed to stay like that for the most part. She has emerald colored eyes that are almost always narrowed. Her bangs part on the right side of her face, and she has a wing-like hairpin on the left side. She almost always dons her Schicksal uniform-- which is white with golden accents. The uniform at the time was a white top with long, puffy sleeves, and a high neckline. With a plethora of golden crosses and lining, it makes it stand out against the common clothed civilians. Eleanor wore a black skirt with her top, and black leggings under her thigh high boots. Her dedication to the Schicksal cause is strong-- and it is only when she uses the black box that she changes out of it.

## Personality

Eleanor is very passionate on serving Otto especially after he cured her from the plague, as she always cares about him, and cried lamenting and regretting her death after Otto killed her. However, Eleanor bears hate towards Kallen Kaslana whom she tried to kill twice, believing that she didn't help Schicksal and Otto and is only an obstacle for them, while wondering why Otto gets so protective towards her.

## History

Honkai attacked humanity not with Herrschers, nor with honkai beasts; the Black Plague arose instead. Its toll swept through Europe, taking countless lives in the process. Many children were left as orphans, helpless to the death that awaited them. One of such orphans was Eleanor Schariac.

## Manga Story

#### Elan Palatinus

Schicksal began trying to find a cure for the disease, testing different methods on people in an underground facility. Otto Apocalypse himself oversaw the experiments, and they resulted in many deaths due to the honkai poisoning that ensued. Things were looking grim, but in 1470, Eleanor was the first person to be cured of the plague. Feeling indebted to the man who saved her, Eleanor pledged to become a Valkyrie. Otto then gave her a last name—Schariac.

In 1476, Eleanor was put on the case of stolen gold along with Kallen Kaslana. When Kallen suggests the thief (which was really herself) was protesting against the forced sales of Indulgences, Eleanor becomes enraged, saying that Schicksal has done so much good for the world, and that it’s the citizen’s duty to pay them back for it. Kallen agrees that the citizens should support Schicksal, but says they should not have to pay for her own mistakes in the war. Eleanor still disagrees, but she lets the argument slide. She walks away angrily, thinking to herself that Kallen is a fool and blaming her for the loss against the Ming army. She decides to rely on herself to find and destroy the enemies of Schicksal.

Later, when Kallen breaks into the basement of Victor (a priest)’s house, it is revealed to her what Schicksal has been doing. To open the black box and use its powers, they have been experimenting yet again with innocents. While Kallen is in shock, Eleanor and a group of valkyries approach her. Eleanor calls her a disgrace to the Valkyrie order. She attacks and Kallen tries to reason with her, saying it’s wrong to kidnap girls and experiment on them. Kallen easily defeats Eleanor, but insists she doesn’t want to fight her. Eleanor then says that Otto “gave her the powers to deal with heresy”, as she summons the Black Abyss (Abyss Flower) and attacks Kallen again. Eleanor immobilizes Kallen, and promises her a swift end as she brings the lance down—only for Otto to grab the blade and stop it. Immediately, Eleanor apologizes to Otto, saying she didn’t mean to hurt him. Kallen is taken away by Eleanor’s Valkyries and Otto collapses.

Using Black Abyss, Eleanor opens up the black box. When Kallen restrains her, Eleanor grabs the gem and absorbs it, turning herself into a psuedo-herrscher. After being restrained by Judah, Eleanor decides that Kallen is a threat to Otto and must be destroyed. Before she can, Otto shoots Eleanor with a Judgment of Shamash mimicry, exposing her gem and allowing Kallen to defeat her. Eleanor disintegrates, questioning why Otto did this, as “she could do so much more”.

#### Post-Elan Palatinus

In 1447, Otto uses Eleanor’s remains to create a serum that gives people strength. It also allows them to wield the Abyss Flower. However, everyone he tested it on went insane and died.

Eventually, he found those compatible with the serum and they were given the name Schariac.
