Elena Dalton is a monster hunter from Wilaria. She was one of the trio of monster hunts who poisoned the water supply on Crabclaw Island. She was defeated by the Mighty Misfits, but spared.

## Background

Elena Dalton is a monster hunter from Wilaria who had worked previously with an elven alchemist named Nelaeryn She successful enough to own and operate a small sailing ship, the *Silver Arrow*, and had enough connections to later lodge a formal complaint with her nation's ambassador.

## Confrontation on Crabclaw Island

Elena was made aware, most likely by Alestar Tarik, of a colony of werewolves living on the secluded Crabclaw Island. Together with Alestar and Nelaeryn, the trio sailed there on her ship, the *Silver Arrow*, and discovered that Alestar's accusations were true.

With an alchemical concoction brewed by Nelaeryn the trio poisoned the colony's water supply, causing many of the werewolves living there to grow ill. The leader of the colony, and Alestar's brother Marcel, came to investigate the water supply and the trio was able to ambush him and capture him.

When Marcel failed to return, his son Olhas hired sailed to Deena and hired the Mighty Misfits to resolve the illness plaguing the village. In short order they found their way to the water supply and confronted Elena, Alestar and Nelaeryn.

The trio insisted to the Mighty Misfits that the creatures were dangerous and needed to be eradicated. The Misifts responded that the werewolves had sequestered themselves on an uninhabited island and were therefore a danger to no one. Elena and her companions refused to stand down or stop poisoning the water supply, so the Misifts attacked them.

Elena and her companions were defeated, though the Misfits spared their lives. The stripped them of their equipment and took the Silver Arrow, but deposited them in Wilarian territory, warning them to leave the people of Crabclaw Island alone.

## Appealing to Ambassador Janson

After returning home, Elena appealed the treatment of she and her companions to the Wilarian ambassador to Gallerea (where the Mighty Misfits operated). Ambassador Abbe Janson brought the matter to Queen Anne Steward, who agreed to try the Mighty Misfits for assault and theft.

The Mighty Misfits' trial was held publicly, and Elena testified, giving her version of events.The Misfits lied, claiming that Elena and her allies had been poisoning the villagers on Crabclaw Island and had refused to cease and so had to be defeated. The Misfits claimed they had no knowledge of werewolves and simply sought to stop a trio of people poisoning a village.

Queen Anne, visibly disinterested in the proceedings, dismissed the charges, but ordered that the Mighty Misfits should provide recompense for the items they had taken from Elena and her companions. This recompense, never materialized, however, as Ambassador Janson instead sent the mercenaries on a quest to recover a magical sword, instead of forcing them to return the *Silver Arrow* and the other gear they had taken.
