Age: 21
Lawrence's younger half-sister.
Their mother wasn't the most mentally stable person in the world, and Insomnia was no place for a person like that. Considering how often she brought random men home, it's surprising that she didn't have more children than she did. Both Lawrence and Elsie were more like a pair of dogs that happened to live in the home than actual children, as their mother wasn't much interested in them. Sometimes her boyfriend at any given time would feel sorry for them and give them attention, but it never lasted.
Because of that as well as the age gap, Lawrence raised Elsie himself. The two ended up leaving home when Lawrence was old enough, and their mom didn't particularly care. Because she had been so young, Elsie doesn't remember her mom or those lonely days with her much. Lawrence worked and went to school to keep them both afloat instead, so it wasn't the easiest life, but she scored him and thought he was the coolest person ever.
From a young age it was apparent that Elsie had considerable musical talent. Lawrence paid for her to take whatever lessons she wanted, so she ended up skilled with multiple instruments as well as singing.
Elsie has yet to make it big in the musical world, though she does have a small fan base. She performs at various small venues to make money, and she often sees the same fans at each show. She also does street performances often to make money and self promote.
When she found out that her brother had died sacrificing himself to save others, her heart was broken. It hasn't been long enough for her to mentally recover from it, so at the moment she's been posting on her social media that she is on hiatus while in real life she's considering giving up on music. Her brother was supporting her still since it's hard living as a starving artist, and while she received a life insurance payout it's not enough long term. Maybe it's time to listen to the people who told her to get a real job?
Like her brother, Elsie likes to see the good in people and gives everyone the benefit of the doubt. She is much more soft spoken and not as likely to speak her mind. She is also the sort of person who would give everything away to help a person she doesn't know. It didn't surprise her to hear that her brother had died doing the same. She is the reason why Lawrence was always a nagging older brother type to others in the defense force.
She didn't even get the chance to say goodbye to her brother, who was only supposed to be gone a few weeks. Now she doesn't even have a body to bury.
