Plot[]

Employment as a Claymore[]

Nothing is known about Elena's past. She joined The Organization at the same time as Clare, who was around the same age, and they comforted each other during their transformation process. It was stated by Elena that she had started work after Clare. Unfortunately, she reached the limits of her human mind earlier than Clare did, and sent her Black Card to her via Rubel.[1]

Death[]

Claymore02 34

Elena is killed by Clare.

Elena came to Mount Shire to wait for Clare, forcing back her yoki to meet with her. When Clare arrived with Raki, Elena says that she only remembers the good times she and Clare had together. As her face begins to distort, she tearfully says that in order to hold back the Yoma within, a strong heart was needed, and she never thought she would be the one retiring first.

She is killed while still human, for which she is grateful, and is buried on the mountain with her sword.[1][2]

Relationships[]

Clare[]

She was very close to Clare, who joined The Organization at the same time. They used to comfort each other during the painful process of hybridization. This simple act of kindness moved Clare to consider Elena to be her only true friend during that time.[1]

Later, when talking to Teresa, Clare admitted she spent the entire night crying after her death.[3]

Behind the Scenes[]

  • Although her rank is never stated, her Organization ratings indicate that she was ranked far below average.
