- Elsa Inverno

Elsa Inverno is a graduate of Haven Academy and a member of the specialist unit of the Atlesian Military leading her own division. She was once a member of Team RBIE and later apart of Isaac Scorch's Group to combat the Lower Cabal for Ironwood while he worked with Ozpin. Her weapon of choice is a sword call Vilhelm.

Early Years
Little is known about Elsa's early years other than she was born and raised in Atlas and had a love of the military. She wanted to join Atlas Academy but was sent to Haven due to her parents desire to send her there.

Haven Academy
Similar to Team AMER, little is known about the team's time at Haven. During initiation, Elsa became partners with Bazaar Hiltzaile and later a member of Team RBIE lead by Roz Quarzo. The four seemed to form a stable friendship with one another and however, Elsa views on the Faunus and White Fang made her relationship with the group seemed strained.

Following her graduation, Elsa joined the Specialist Unit of the Atlesian Military and soon earned the title of commander of her specialist division. One day, General Ironwood called her to Vale with him. The two left and met with Isaac, Bazaar and Qrow and entered Ozpin's Office. Ozpin, Qrow and Ironwood informed the three of the Lower Cabal as well as Salem. Elsa then joined Isaac and became a part of Isaac's sub-group of Ozpin's.

Mission to Ivory
Elsa was assigned to oversee a team of first year students at Atlas Academy named Team SSMR. Elsa went to the outskirts of the town and awaited the team. When the team arrived at the drop point, they began to move through the icy tundra surrounding them and bordering the village. As the team moved through the area, they were greeted by Elsa. The five then entered the village only to find it abandoned and almost entirely destroyed. While Solomon and Regen continued deeper into the town, Magnus took to a high rise in order to get a feel for the terrain while Elsa debriefed Stonewall.

After receiving a call from Solomon, the rest of the group rushed over and saw a series of dead bodies scattered along the ground with claw marks and stab wounds left and right. Though SSMR initially thought of Grimm, Elsa stated it was bandits and nomads, using the bandits attack in order to steel food and supplies. The team pressed onward and located a massive cliff overlooking a small valley. While Magnus and Stonewall were overlooking the area, they noticed several groups of people and were told they were nomads by Elsa.

As they watched, a group of bandits emerged and attacked the nomads, killing them all and taking their supplies. Elsa ordered an attack and so Stonewall took action. While he and Magnus would cut the bandits off, Solomon and Regen were to drive them towards Stonewall and Magnus. The four put the plan into motion and Elsa assisted both parts of the plan. As the bandits entered a retreat, Stonewall and Magnus attacked the retreating foes and cut them off. A few then scattered into the wilderness, leaving only a few others to be arrested. Stonewall then interrogated one of the prisoners along with Elsa who reviled a much larger camp further north. Elsa then ordered the camp to be destroyed.

Battle of Frost Bane
The five then came across the town of Frost Bane, a bandit city and a nomad trading center for those who lived outside the kingdom and attacked bordering cities such as Ivory. While Elsa had a plan, she let Stonewall take command of the situation. Stonewall order Regen to infiltrate the city as a spy for a few hours and survey the area. After Regen returned from 3 hours of a scouting mission, Stonewall was given the intel and that there were prisoners. Stonewall then had Solomon and Magnus lead a distraction to lead the outside guards away from the permitter.

While Solomon and Magnus lead the distraction, Stonewall and Regen infiltrated the city and began freeing the prisoners and lead them outside the walls. The two then attacked the wall guards while Elsa then infiltrated the city and began to clear out some of the bandits. Stonewall called Solomon and Magnus back and had Regen cover their track back. Stonewall then joined Elsa in clearing out the city from bandits. Stonewall then encountered their leader and they began to duel.

Stonewall ducked the sword swing from the leader and kicked him in the stomach knocking back the leader. Stonewall then used his semblance and blocked another sword swing and rapidly punch the leader in the face over again, knocking him out. Stonewall then removed the leader's sword and stopped using his semblance and was extremely weakened. The leader was arrested and brought into a prison within Atlas Academy.

Following the mission, Elsa recommended that SSMR be made apart of her division with Ironwood agreeing to her request. Therefore she gave the rank of Lieutenant to Stonewall, Sergeant to Solomon and Private to both Magnus and Regen.

Vytal Festival Tournament
When Elsa arrived at Beacon, she was greeted by Frederic Scorch and Ember Ignis homed seem to welcome her with open arms. The three exchanged some words, but she seemed to be more interested in Leia and May. While Fred and Ember left, the three girls walked down the main avenue and talked until they were interrupted by Isaac Scorch himself. Though Leia comes to her defense, Isaac simply pushes her out of the way and continues to verbally attack Elsa. He then insults Ironwood and openly states via screaming that Ironwood was trying to conquer Vale.

Elsa then draws her sword and attacks Isaac, who dodges all her swings and stabs. He then bows before her and she makes downward strike is blocked by the base of Isaac's sword, right before he tosses it in the air and proceeds to kick her in the face and catches his sword and goes on the offensive. Isaac then begins to push Elsa back with her retaliating only in slight strikes that do almost nothing to stop Isaac. He then launches Elsa behind a pole and throws his sword cutting the pole in two. Elsa then blindly launches at Isaac who dodges her strike, mocking winks at her and throws her back on the avenue with a kick to her back.

Isaac then landed on his sword and shot the ground to propel himself back to Elsa whom he launched up and onto a railing. He then fired at Elsa who jumped and dodged the blast onto a wall. The two the shared a smile with one another before Elsa ran up the wall and Isaac opened fire at her. Isaac then jumped onto Beacon's archway and chased after her, firing blast from his shotgun. He then used his semblance to launch lava at Elsa who proceeded to freeze. Isaac then searches for Elsa as he sees a cloud of white steam consume her, narrowing his gaze. Suddenly, Elsa flies towards him, with Isaac pulling up his hair and smiling at her. He blocks the attack and the two get launched down onto the ground where they resume their fight. Elsa then uses her semblance and pushes Isaac back and then unleashes a flurry of ice at him, with Isaac only slightly blocking the attack.

Isaac then launches a wave of fire at Elsa, forcing her to stop the attack. Elsa then prepares to strike with her semblance with Isaac doing the same. He then taunts her before she strikes, however before their blades could met, they are stopped by Qrow and Ironwood. Elsa simply obeys Ironwood and returns to her ship to await orders from Ironwood and Isaac.

Once Isaac and Elsa made their way to Beacon, Isaac called in a meeting for the three to update everyone on the current status of the world. Bazaar stated the latest intel he had on Roz and that her forces moved to Forever Fall and the Emerald Forest. When Elsa suggested an attack on the forest with Atlas' military as well as her specialist division. Bazaar and Isaac voted against this act and agreed with Isaac for staying to their plan rather than attack in full force.Bazaar and Isaac continued to look over Fred and Ember throughout the Tournament and Bazaar became more confident in Fred's abilities.

Later during the tournament, Elsa joins Isaac and Bazaar in stoping Nolan Runderen and Lavender Kristal from breaking out Shadow Ombre from prison. While Isaac dealt with Shadow, and Elsa, Lavender, Bazaar took on Nolan. Elsa quickly charged Lavender with the latter blocking her strike but was caught off guard by an ice blast to her face and feet, sliding her across the prison yard. Elsa lounged at Lavender and pinned her to the ground, with Lavender responding by a kick to her stomach. Elsa was then throw across across the yard and tasered on her neck by Nolan before he was tackled by Bazaar.

The next day, Leia is training with Elsa to improve her swordplay. Elsa says that Leia is quite adept with her skill and can progress further onward. Leia agrees and for the next few hours, Elsa and Leia train to become better.

Battle of Beacon
When Beacon was attacked, Bazaar, Elsa and Isaac worked in the defense of the school from the Grimm. Bazaar was the first of the three to attack the Grimm with several arrows and sword slashes through the Grimm and allowed Isaac to finish off the group. Following the pack of Grimm died, Isaac ordered Bazaar to back his way to the north to defend it and Elsa to the south. He then continued with the already existing Grimm pack.

After the order of evacuation was given by Peter Port and Bartholomew Oobleck, Bazaar and Elsa left the school without Isaac.

Post-Fall of Beacon
Following the Battle of Beacon,Elsa continued to serve Isaac and joined him in continuing their plans for protection of Fred and FLME. She also joined Isaac in Menagerie observing Fred's progress in the defense of Fumi Cove with March Fumi.

Psych-Interviews
"Your sword-play is impressive I must say. If you do need a mentor, similar to Isaac and Frederic please feel free to ask."

- Elsa Inverno to Leia Burns on being a mentor.

Personality
Elsa is described as cold, indifferent and highly opinionated individual who seems to to keep her emotions in check rather than her actions be based on them. However, when speaking with those she can call allies, she smilies and does show some actual emotion. She does however, seem to care very little about Fred and Ember and focused more on Leia, due to her needing to train Leia to protect Fred from the Lower Cabal. She appears to be interested in Leia's development and cares about her as she is willing to train her and even embrace her for a short period of time.

Despite this, Elsa does have strong negative views of the Faunus and White Fang believing them to be monsters. However, this does not apply to all Faunus as she trust March and April Fumi with her life as she openly stated. She can be harsh and defensive about her views as seen when she attacks Isaac Scorch for insulting Atlas. She is also very loyal to her kingdom as she views Atlas in a positive light, but is never afraid to state its failures, including the Schnee Dust Company. However, it is possible for her to become rash and arrogant as she desires to attack Forever Fall to whip out Roz Quarzo despite the possible civilian casualties.

She does support a humorous side as she openly mocks and poke fun at Isaac during the Battle of Beacon. She is also fiercely loyal to Isaac and his group as she followers orders without question. However, she can still openly disagree if something does not go her way.

Physical Appearance
Elsa Inverno is a tall women with a pale white complexion and blonde hair with teal eyes. She also wears white shoulder and upper body armor along with white robe like armor. Elsa also has large black gloves with light black armor and a sash along her back hip, almost like a long coat. Elsa also has white pants which lead down into her black colored boots.

Weapon
Elsa's weapon of choice is a sword called Vilhelm which is a black bladed sword. She shows great skills with her weapon, displaying above-average speed, agility and reflexes in combat. She is able to both start moving and stop in an instant, as shown when she aborted her final attack on Isaac at the last second upon hearing Ironwood's voice. Her skills with her weapon are impressive, and although she was unable to land any serious blows on Isaac, she was able to parry and match all of his attacks for the duration of their fight.

Fighting Style
Elsa's fighting style is very formal and yet also spasmodic in her movements. She can easily fight with sword swings and swift movements such as kicks or a lunge attack. Her fighting style is heavily reliant on quick movements and outmaneuvering opponents with grace and tenacity. Her movements allow her to easily accomplish this task by moving behind her opponents for a strike. She also uses her semblance in combat, either blinding foes or making them slide across the field of battle.

Semblance
Elsa's semblance is ice manipulation. She does use it proficiently enough to were she can create a flurry of ice and can use it for transportation purposes. She can also use it to push foes into walls knocking them un-conscience or to even freeze opponents in pure ice. She can then break this ice and control is smaller pieces and manipulate it into other beings to tear them apart from the inside.
