[edit] Elie
Elie is one very lively, bubbly, optimistic girl whose usual outfit is a tight fitting midriff top and a mini skirt. She first met Haru Glory at the dog races where she was betting on Plue. She ends up joining them after Haru saves her. When she revealed to Haru that she was actually looking for her memories and is in search of someone who can tell her what her name is, when her birthday is, or who her parents are, Haru promised her that they will find it together. Elie has an undying love for casinos and always drag the group to the casino when there is one. She closely resembles Resha Valentine, the creator of Rave.
Later in the manga, Elie starts to develop romantic feelings for Haru just as Haru does as well. But Elie soon finds out that she needs to leaves Haru and her friends too. She gets very depressed but then quickly snaps out of it at the dance contest.
[edit] Power
Elie has this remarkable power called "Etherion". As quoted from Sieg Hart, this power is
"used to turn nothing into something, and everything to nothing"
Elie, as Resha Valentine, uses this power to create Rave. However, before Elie got her memories of Resha, she uses dual Tonfa Guns as her weapon and continues to use it even though she remembers how to control Etherion and use it. Elie does not do well in hand to hand combat.
In Volume 24 she uses a Time-Space staff she finds to defeat Koala. She does not remember what it is when she's Elie, but she can use it when she's Resha.
[edit] Character history
One year ago, Elie awoke to discover a scene of devastation in the distance and no memories. Then, she was attacked by a mysterious blue-haired man (who turns out to be Sieg Hart). She however survives his attacks, and eventually named herself by the tattoo that was on her left arm, which reads "Elie" not realizing at the time that she had been reading it upside-down. She thought she had read ELIE when in fact it was 3173. Elie soon learns her true name is Experiment #3173 ("3173" in block numbers upside-down is "Elie"), and that she was modeled after Resha Valentine, the genius girl who supposedly gave her life using the power of Etherion in her to create the Rave and the Ravestones.
In Volume 31, it is revealed that Elie actually is Resha. Contrary to history, Resha did not die of Etherion poisoning, instead, her death was staged in order to preserve her power to combat the future coming of Etherion 50 years later. This plan was unknown to everyone but the king of Symphonia, Haru's grandfather, who went by the name of Kaim. Elie was in a magic-induced sleep preserving her youth until a year before Rave Master began, waking only when Sieg destroyed the lab.
[edit] Resha Valentine
Resha is a famous dancer from Symphonia. She can use the highest magic-Etherion to create Holy Bring (Rave). The name 'Rave' came from the first and the last letter from the first and last name of Resha Valentine. In the story of Knights of the Blue Sky, Resha died after she finished creating the Holy Bring. But the truth is, she pretended to die and became a girl named 'Elie' after hearing an advice from Saga Pendragon.
