## Biography

### Background

Ellis Dreese, son of Robynne Dreese and brother of Taylor Dreese, grew up in the small town of Deepwater. He was a football player in the running back position at Deepwater High, and he continued in this role when he attended Schuyler Adamson University. He was renowned in his home town for becoming an all-state player. It was at SAU that he met one Ms. Darling, a cheerleader whom he would later marry. The two had a son named Robert, with the boy named after his grandmother. Three years after Robert's birth, Ellis and his wife were in a fatal car accident, so Taylor became their son's guardian. Robert played football as a running back like his father throughout middle school and much of high school, and would later attend SAU where his parents had met.

### Week 1

Robert's Spirit Guard transformation forces him into a woman's body, so during the meeting with Kunapipi following the Day LaMode battle, it is decided that it would be unsafe to continue using Rob's birth name. Not wanting to stray away from family names, the newly dubbed Robynne Ellis Darling's middle name is from her father's given name. That evening, Robynne shows photos of her relatives to Vivian to see if they can find where various traits of her new body might originate from. Upon looking at the photo of her parents on their wedding day, Rob notices her mother's hair inexplicably appears as blood red like her own rather than the usual redhead color it had displayed before arriving at Kessia City.

### Week 5

One morning, Tanya comments on the football jersey Robynne is wearing, assuming it to belong to a potential boyfriend of Rob's. In order to embarrass Tanya and axe the idea of a boyfriend, Rob claims the jersey belonged to her late father. In actuality, it is the one Robert wore in high school, with Robynne using the now oversized jersey as sleepwear.

## Relationships

### Robynne Dreese

Ellis's mother Robynne closely followed his football career, having a collection of news stories on the subject that she'd show Robert, who was named after her.

### Taylor Dreese

Ellis was apparently on good terms with his brother Taylor, as after his death, his son Robert was adopted by Taylor.

### Mrs. Dreese

Ellis met his future wife while at SAU, where they were a football player and cheerleader, respectively. They would later marry and have a son named Robert. The two of them died in a car accident three years later.

### Robert Dreese/Robynne Darling

Ellis died when his son Robert was three years old, so Rob only knows of his parents through what his uncle and grandmother would tell him. Rob grew up playing football as a running back and went to attend SAU as ways to connect to his late father, and keeps photos of his parents in his wallet. The Spirit Guard transformation forces Rob to live with a female body, but when prompted to rename herself to protect her identity, she doesn't want to completely lose the connection to her parents her birth name has. Her middle name, Ellis, is chosen in memory of her father.
