Elina is a beautiful young woman in her late teens, standing 168 cm (5'6") tall. Her armor bears a feline motif. She wears a metal cat-eared headband and a golden necklace with a sapphire pendant. On her chest, she wears a metal brassiere partly painted blue. She wears a white and black striped vest with high ends, open on her torso but closing and forming front and back tassels as it descends below her navel. She wears a white and black striped full-length glove on her right arm and a metal arm guard on her left arm. She wears black thong panties with an ornate black belt over the tassel, protective and support wrappings on her knees, and white and black striped shoes. Rebellion

Elina's outfit still bears the feline motif, but is now all black. She wears a cat-eared face guard and a breastplate with rubies, along with a black cape. On her left arm, she wears a full-length arm guard with a sapphire at the shoulder, plus a metal wristband on her right arm. She wears black thong panties containing small rubies and metal thigh-length boots. Her hair is pulled into twin tails. Unlimited

Elina now has a more revealing outfit with a white bow around her neck, a blue breastplate, and silver hip armor. On her arms, she has lace sleeves with her right arm unarmored, and lace thigh-highs with silver greaves. Her spear has a large white cloth wrapped around it. Her tiara closely resembles cat ear accessories. Personality

Unlike her more even-tempered sister Leina, Elina suffers from borderline personality disorder (a.k.a. emotionally unstable personality disorder) and sadomasochism. In combat, she curses and mocks opponents to break their concentration. She has a demeaning view of anyone not part of the Vance family, such as commoners, workers, and servitors. Since childhood, Elina has felt deep adoration and libidinous attraction to her sister Leina. In Queen's Blade: Rebellion, she also has sexual desire for her older half-sister Claudette, similar to her feelings toward Leina. In Queen's Blade Unlimited, Elina develops an attachment to Michel Rivaranciel. Abilities

Elina was trained in body and spear skills. She attacks with strong iron claws at close range and uses a wire to bind opponents at long range. She also uses taunts to demoralize opponents, lower their guard, and confuse them, giving her an early advantage in battle. Story Prior to QB

(From the Queen's Blade site)

Elina is the younger sister of the Exiled Warrior Leina and the daughter of Count Vance, the most powerful political figure in the Continent after the Queen.

She excels at martial arts and espionage techniques. Besides being the Count's bodyguard, she is also in charge of gathering intelligence and receives special assassination assignments.

She is a warrior to be feared: trained to specialize in spear and body skills, she has iron claws that can cut through any substance and knows curses to break opponents' concentration.

Unlike her gentle sister, Elina can manifest a mean personality. Since childhood, she has felt deep adoration for Leina.

The Count Vance's family ruled over the Continent before Queen's Blade was instated and are of royal blood. It is a powerful entity that controls the opposing forces to the Queen. The Count tried everything to bring back the daughter who fled from home, since she was the direct successor of the family, but failed at all attempts. It was then that Elina received the order to capture her sister. Prologue

(From her backcover)

“This Leina, what a tomboy! She doesn’t intend to come back home until the end? Until when will she continue that worthless roaming! What does she think her social status is?”

Big sis, this is bad. Father is extremely furious.

“What would you do, Elina? Even your subordinates failed to capture Leina, and there were 5 of them!”

That’s right. It’s just Elina who is allowed to touch big sis. Sorry, big sis. I’ll gouge out the eyes of those guys, to make sure they don’t stand up again.

“The Queen’s dogs, the so-called “Assassins of Fang”, seem to be aiming at my life. Though I’m not worried with you by my side, necessity knows no law. Elina, you’ll bring Leina back.”

Yes! With this I can finally meet big sis.

“Mission acknowledged, Earl. Since my older sister will appear in the Queen’s Blade tournament by all means, I’ll capture her there.”

Father frowned when he heard the words “Queen’s Blade” from my mouth, but it doesn’t matter.

Big sis, Elina has become incredibly strong. You’ll be beautiful even if you’re covered with sweat and dust, big sis. The participants don’t matter because I’ll go kill everyone you meet, wait for me, big sis ♥.

Sure enough, can Elina fulfill her mission?

They won’t know that unless they fight. Rebellion

(From the Queen's Blade site)

The leader of the "Assassins of the Fang", the assassination unit under direct supervision of the present Queen.

Claudette's younger half-sister, she is the former Captain of Count Vance's Royal Guard and was second in line of succession in the family. After the fall of Count Vance, she became a close associate of Claudette, the new Queen.

She has almost abnormal feelings for her other older sister Leina. However, she does not seem inclined to search for the currently missing Leina, which puzzles those who knew about her previous obsession with her sister. However, no one will say anything about it. In a way, angering Elina, known as one of the cruelest leaders of the death squad so far, would be more frightening than going against the Queen herself.
