also known as "Lena"
Female

straight
Med Student at NYU
Appearance
Elena is 5'5" with brown hair and has blonde highlights throughout. She has brown eyes that have hazel specks throughout her iris. She has olive skin that tends to tan in the summer which she doesn't typically complain about. It often makes her friends jealous of her. She recently got a tattoo on the back of her neck of a butterfly representing hope, change and life. She also recently got her belly button pierced, something she's been dying to do for the longest time.
Personality
Growing up in school, Elena was always the one to get straight A's. Sure she had to work for the grades but when she put forth the effort, she usually succeeded. Elena is a very compassionate person. She wears her heart on her sleeve and tends to try and see the good in people. It often can get her in trouble, in the sense that she is often heart broken, or at the end of a broken heart. Being that she is compassionate, she is also very loyal, to her friends, family and especially her significant other. She would rather try and work through her issues then break things off with her significant other.
Background
Elena was born to Miranda and Grayson Gilbert on May 18th in Mystic Falls, Virginia. She and her parents lived there until she was about 6 years old and then her parents decided they wanted a change of scenery, and her dad got a new job, so they decided to move to New York City, also known as the city that never sleeps. She adjusted quite well to the move, considering she barely had time to make friends in Mystic Falls due to her being so young and not in school.
When Elena was in elementary school, she met her best friend Bonnie Bennett. The two were as thick as thieves and they typically did everything together. Somehow they were always in the same classes and even if they weren't, they would find each other at lunch and at recess and they would often go off on their own. The two quickly went from best friends to practically sisters.
In middle school, Caroline Forbes moved in to town along with Stefan ---. Caroline quickly became friends with Elena but she had to win Bonnie over, which didn't take long. When Stefan was introduced to Elena, the pair quickly became the "IT" couple. He was always to attentive to her and she honestly needed it.
When she was in 8th grade, she and her parents were in a horrific car accident. Both her parents were somehow ejected from the car and she survived. She didn't know what happened until she woke up in the hospital a week later with her Aunt Jenna by her side. She was told that her parents had died in a car accident and that Jenna would be moving to New York in order to take care of her. Elena wasn't the same after that. She wasn't as happy, or as willing to do fun things with her friends. But Stefan remained by her side and honestly he was the one who helped her through everything.
When Elena was in high school, she joined the cheer team with Bonnie and Caroline. Stefan was quick to join the football team as well and he made Quarterback which looked good for Elena because she ended up becoming cheer captain.
When she was a senior in high school, and she got to thinking of what she wanted to do when she grew up, she realized she wanted to become a nurse or a doctor. She also realized that she needed to break things off with Stefan in order to make sure that she could focus 100% on her school work. It broke her heart and she took a while to bounce back from it but she managed to focus on her school work and she got into pre-med at New York University which was her first choice of schooling.
