Elfina used to live on an Isle popullated by fairies, known as "Twinkwell Isle". But unlike the rest of the fairies she was born without any wings and was always teased because of that, making Elfina feel she didn't belong and have an existencial crisis, wondering if she really was born to be a fairy.
One particular day Elfina saw a bunch of guards throwing out a mysterious man with a dice for a head (King Dice) from the palace gates that lead to the castle. Infurated, the King dice said that their Kings and people would pay For what they did and that his boss would make sure about that before making his escape.
At first the guards thought he was just bluffing about it but Elfina who had witnessed everything and Heard from one of the guards about what happened told them to take this matter seriously as it is their work to protect otherwise it would have disastrous consequences. Agreeing the guards asked Elfina to spread the Word around For an incoming danger, and everyone (minus the bullries) believed Elfina.
After returning the captain of the royal guards gave Elfina a reward as a thank you For her hard work and cooperation; her very own magic wand! A gift that is considered as very rare item and that is not something all fairies get. Elfina started to practice with her Magic wand and slowly became a pro, becoming good with it at things like gardening and baking, however as many fairies started to respect her because of that, this also woke up the envy of the bullries who said she only got it by lying and their methods of bullying escalated from insults to physical abuse and trying taking her wand away.
However, one day the isle was attacked by a mysterious force... The skies darkened and a mysterious evil voice (the devil) boomed from above the stormy skies, an evil laughter echoing:
"Good Pixies of Twinkwell Isle! I'm afraid something has being happening between your dear King and Queen here, and i as man of my word it is My duty to punish them For their big mistake. But first Let me entertain myself with a game that I called: Get the SOULS!!!"
Then suddenly thunder and lighting started to rain down from the sky, many fairies scattered while running For their lifes. Some were caught by those lightning, vanishing into thin air as if they never even existed and the island started to caught on flames. Most of the fairies evacuated the Isle in the life boats around the docks, watching in sadness at their homeland was destroyed.
After some weeks of floating adrift in the ocean, a storm hit them boat that Elfina was in and she fell overboard and lost counciousness after being hit by a giant wave.
When she woke up she was at an unknown isle, she was found by a nurse called Rima who let her stay with her, during this time Elfina decided to put her powers to good use, while also working as a nurse in the same hospital Rima worked at. She started to get recognized by her abilities as time went on and many people respected her (and admired) but many other people she told her story thought that she was crazy since the magic isle was thought as a myth and many others didn't belived in the magic.
After sometime everything was fine until there was a financial struggle, everyone went bankrupt and many people lost their jobs along with Rima and Elfina. The place soon fell into poverty and many people began to leave the Isle, only a few remained but the place was literally going into ruins.
Rima eventually decided to Let go Elfina in order For her to find a better place to live and a good chance of finding a job. And so, the two parted ways after thanking eachother For what they did For eachother and Elfina sailed away on a raft toward her new destiny, a place where she could find a true home and with a goal in mind: Make magic be believed again.
And now her story began...
* Here's some trivia facts about Elfina:
*Elfina's white body has a "moonlight glow". Whenever she is underneath the light of the full moon, her body gains a magical glow which gives her and even more ethereal appearence (but this only happens when she's under the moonlight). In fact, he skin Is very expressive when it comes to her emotions (if she is happy her skin stays a radiant white, if she is in love her cheeks get a pink glow, and if she is sick, sad or depressed her skin loses her natural whiteness and becomes a bit greyish).
*Her passion for gardening and reading was inherited by her mother, who was known for talking to the flora of her garden, as for her father she inherited his adventurous curiosity and love For animals.
* She read a book from Betty Boop ("how to Boop your Boop-woop-a- doop") and how to sing and dance like Jessica Rabbit, which she follows by heart.
*She believes in the survival of good and bad things to exist. Without the evilness, good would be nothing. And that goodness needs the evil for living. So if she had the time to get rid of the Devil or King Dice, instead of that she would just leave them in a deep slumber, cuz she believes that even though the Devil destroyed her homeland she wouldn't be capable of destroying something that is important for the balance of the good and evil. Besides she dosen't hate King Dice so much as the Devil, but still dislikes him.
*Elfina is mainly inspired by the disney princesses and some other Disney characters; Cinderella (Cinderella), Tinkerbell and Wendy (Peter Pan), Alice (Alice in Wonderland), the blue fairy (Pinnochio), Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), Ariel (The little mermaid), Belle (Beauty and the Beast) and Rapunzel (Tangled). She's also based around Elina (Barbie: Fairytopia), Mariposa (Barbie Mariposa), Clara (Barbie and the nutcracker), Betty Boop, Red hot ridding hood (from Tex Avery), Odette (The swan princess) and Princess Peach (from the Mario games). But mainly her inspiration is Cala Maria from the Cuphead game.
* She can't swim unless she wears her special mermaid suit.
*She enjoys playing the flute, violin and piano. But can't play the guitar nor the trumpet.
*She can perform ballet while gardening or cooking.
* She has thalasophobia (fear of the oceans)
*Cuphead and Mugman are apparently in love with her.
*Despite her "rubberhose" appearence (in which Cuphead Is based on) she has fluent movements and her manerism are reminicent to that of the rotoscope era of the old cartoons (like how they animated the movements of the disney princesses) Making her different from the rest of the characters.
*She dosen't have wings because she was born outside of the Magic circle (the barrier that protects the archipelago of Twinkwell)
The reason Is this; it turns out that a long time ago before Oberon was king he was on a diplomatic visit to another Isles, playing gambling with some people, a mysterious man made a bet with him (double or nothing): if Oberon won, then he would multiply the riches of his land so his people wouldn't suffer but if he loses, he Will not only have to owe him His soul but also the ones of his kingdom and Even the ones that would come in the future during His reing. Feeling like this man was just bluffing and feeling lucky He accepted the bet but he lost and the man then revealed himself to be the Devil. Oberon fearing For his life he begged him to hold the deal For now, the devil told him that he Will give him 20 years until he becomes king but if he goes back on his Word the consequences would be severe not only For him but to His people too.
The King fearing For his and His people safety fled back to Twinkwell, keeping the secret away from His people. Once he was crowned King he decided to create what is known as the "Magic circle" a magical barrier that would keep His land (and the rest of the isles around the archipelago) safe from any attacks and forbidding the entrance of non magical creatures to the Isle. This also served to lock the Magic of Twinkwell away from the world and keep their location a secret, the island Is sentient and can change locations from time to time in order to prevent detection.
The reason Why Elfina dosen't have any wings Is because her dad (who was a knight in training and a swordman) knew about this debt when eavesdropping the king and fearing For his future child's safety he And his wife fled the Isle in order For his wife to have a safe birth outside Twinkwell, where the reing of Oberon didn't reach so the soul of Elfina wouldn't be tainted. Since she was born without Magic, Elfina dosen't have any wings like the others but this also meant that her soul Is intact by the debt of the King and the Devil.
Actually, the soul of a magical creatures Is double the powerful then a regular soul, which Is why he Made the deal with the King Oberon (and made him lose it), he's secretly harvesting the souls of the fairies he gathered from this debt and Is gonna use them to power himself up along with the rest of his subordinates.
The devil has the fairies souls in a twisted garden like the garden of souls of Ursula from the Little Mermaid.
