character

Elle Mcgib

Elle · the Frost Maiden

The Frost Maiden flies rings around a war god — pelting Grull with icicles and dodging his death-ray breath to save Carl.

Story so far

Elle McGib reveals a stunning turn of speed and flight in the trainyard death match. Piloting the Nightmare up to the yard, she then takes to the air herself, rocketing past the war god Grull to bounce icicles off his head and draw his fury away from Carl. She flies dangerously close, weaving past his swipes and barely dodging his melting heat-breath 'death ray' that slags trains in its path, before landing beside Katia Grim's fake-Carl decoy to sell the misdirection.

Her fearless aerial harassment is one of the three gambits — with Katia's decoy and Li Na's mantaur trick — that let the party banish Grull and save Carl.

Appearance

A Frost Maiden crawler wreathed in cold, capable of high, bullet-fast flight, hurling icicles.

Role

The defense's flying skirmisher, harassing the war god to buy Carl's rescue.

Relationships

grull — The god she pelts with icicles and lures across the yard.
Carl — Whose life her aerial distraction helps save.
Katia Grim — Whose fake-Carl decoy she escorts to complete the trick.
