Series: The Vampire Diaries
Timeline: 211 The Descent
Canon Resource Links: Elena Gilbert @ wikia
Personality: Elena's a very calm individual, sometimes making her seem a little reserved. After the death of her parents Elena withdrew, spending her days writing in her journal as she tried to deal and move on from the death of her parents. Although her brother didn't think that her sitting in the cemetery with her journal was a good way of moving on, after she confront him about his delinquency, writing down what she felt was helpful to Elena; it helped remind her of the good things as well as the bad, and reminded her that she would be okay. She uses the strength of others to help her, drawing on comfort from her friends and family - seeing them happy and okay helped Elena through the pain of her parents death and seeing them remain happy and safe helps her despite the dangers that are in Mystic Falls; as long as nothing happens Elena can reassure herself that things will be okay, even as dire and desperate as times may seem.
Elena is a romantic at heart. She loves romance, especially the romantic ideas of the past. When the Miss Mystic Falls pageant started, although Elena found parts of it a little ridiculous she enjoyed the meaning behind it. Elena enjoyed the romance behind the dance - the no contact rules meant that the dance focussed on the romance between the dancers - flirting with their eyes especially. When Stefan wanted to build his strength by slowly ingesting human blood Elena offered her own blood to Stefan, a sign of both her love and trust for him. Earlier in the year when Stefan had drank Elena's blood and was unable to control his thirst for it, Elena trusted that Stefan wouldn't kill her and placed herself in danger in front of him, trying to help him realise that dying wouldn't help him - that she loved him too dearly for that.
For her age Elena is very mature individual - since Stefan and Damon moved to town a lot has happened both to her and in Mystic Falls; it started with a string of 'animal' attacks, leading to Elena later finding that she was the doppelgänger of Katherine Pierce (Katerina Petrova) and adopted - her real parents being Isobel Flemming and John Gilbert, making her a descendent of Katherine but also a relative of the Gilbert's. Despite everything that has happened - the building deaths and dangers in her life Elena has remained strong, her calm and level personality allowing her to see past all that and remain collected; where someone else may have fallen or retreated Elena maturely manages everything, trying to help where she can without getting in too deep or acting out about it. Elena's maturity helped greatly when her aunt Jenna became her and Jeremy's legal guardian. Jenna, a fun loving woman who was clueless over parenting, found Elena's maturity to be a comfort - it meant she didn't have to look after her quite so much and could focus more on Jeremy, but also that Elena's words were comforting, allowing them to bond and talk naturally.
Elena is also both selfless and kind. This, along with her calm personality can make her both reliable but also reckless. If someone that is close to Elena is in danger or has been threatened by someone that is dangerous Elena will risk her own life to keep them safe. Fortunately for Elena there is always someone that cares about her to protect her and stop both herself and the person being threatened from coming to harm. It shouldn't be said that Elena has little regard for her own life - Elena doesn't wish to die, and by that extent doesn't wish to become a vampire, but she doesn't want to see anyone else be hurt either and if she brought the damage on or it is being done to get to her then she would rather have the consequences placed on herself rather than onto anyone else. Elena also has a very strong moral compass, one that she doesn't blur the lines between - or at least won't without a very good reason for doing so. Elena knows in her eyes what is good and bad, what is right and wrong and crossing those lines will cause her trust in you to be lost, something that takes a very long time to be built back - if at all it can be. Elena's moral compass can also make her appear rather judgemental, particularly when she lacks trust in a person or a situation.
Strengths/Weaknesses: Strengths: Kind, caring & selfless: Elena has a caring nature and is often described as a do-gooder. She wishes to protect and keep everyone around her safe, risking herself in order to do it. Caroline said that she's a motherly person and can't see Elena not having children, emphasising her caring nature. She's always trying to help those around her, particularly those closest to her.
Intelligent: Elena is a smart girl and can quickly use clues that people have given her to piece together an answer which doesn't seem obvious, especially when it's outside the box.
Calm: Elena is a very calm individual and it can take a lot to anger her or for her to show her annoyance. She prefers to resolve situations calmly and peacefully rather than resorting to violence.
Mature: Elena's maturity has helped her when she discovered the darker secrets to Mystic Falls, her real parentage and the fact that she needed to die in order to have the Petrova Doppelgänger curse broken. Although her actions became that of a martyr she saw it as the only possible solution of keeping everyone else alive.
Athletic: Elena used to be a cheerleader and built up muscle tone and definition. Although it doesn't help her against vampires due to their heightened strength she is rather athletic and has good stamina through exercise and cheerleading - she's also a fairly good runner.
Weaknesses: Rash/reckless: Elena's wish to not see others be hurt means that she is often reckless with herself and will put herself in danger to protect others.
Emotional: Elena's caring nature and love for others is a weakness in dangerous situations as she doesn't want to see anyone that she cares about being hurt - often meaning that she'll put herself in danger to save them.
Judgemental: Elena has a strong moral compass in regards to what is right and wrong and her unwavering beliefs on this can make her appear judgemental.

Samples
First Person Sample: Okay, so I'm going to go out on a wild limb and say that this isn't Virginia.
[ Especially considering what the brochure said and that the town sign said 'New Bark Town' ]
I've been kidnapped before, usually there's someone guarding you or telling you to shut up, the fact that I've been left alone outside and no one really seems to be around tells me that this is something else. So... not kidnapping, not trapped in a tomb, that's all my ideas gone. And since the book said this is basically my phone, I guess I'm asking you.
[ Yep, she had gotten nosy first, which was the only reason how to knew to work this thing as it was nothing like she'd seen before - nor was anything that was in the bag she'd found on her ]
So phone, weird vials and some balls. Please tell me that Katherine hasn't gotten free and is messing with my mind.
[ There was always Elijah but they'd made a deal and this hadn't been part of it. She sighed... this would be a long day ]
Third Person Sample: An adventure? That wasn't really how she'd wanted to spend her sort of freedom but at least Katherine - or Elijah or especially Klaus - wasn't here to harm her, that at least had to be something. She'd spent her time reading the hand book in her bag after getting off the phone - with the fact that everyone seemed to say the same thing she could at least believe it was the truth, unless it was some kind of mass compelling but that didn't seem to be right.
"Pokemon. I guess it could be crazier." At least they weren't miniature vampires or even werewolves. Following what the book said Elena picked up one of the balls and 'called' the Pokemon inside it, at least that's what it felt like. This would take some time to get her head around.
"Okay. This is either a big dream," The idea that one of the Vampires was behind this was still in the back of her mind but considering how weird this was... she wasn't even sure if they could come up with this. Plus, it wasn't a memory, could they just create something? She'd have to ask Stefan when she got back. "or you're actually real." The fact that her Absol came closer to her, stood beside her and looked up at her - almost protectively - made her want to believe it more.
"So... this is a pretty weird first pet." With the way it looked at her Elena had to smile. "You're starting to remind me of Stefan; dark, brooding, protective." If it could understand her it didn't seem to be offended by what she said. "Stefan it is then."
Looking around her Elena examined the town quickly, remembering what she'd been told about it and what was ahead. "Come on." Standing from the bench she put the book and ball in her bag, waiting for Stefan. "There's nothing here, maybe the next town's close and there might be someone there who can help." She hoped, anyway.
