BIOGRAPHY.

tw : mentions of abuse, alcoholism, hospitalization at a young age, medical diagnosis, assumed parental death, slight nsfw content

elle celina woods was born in a low-kept, hole in the wall kind of hospital in california during a rare summer stormy night on june 15th. her existence came into play in an act of passion and not much more - well, at least that’s what she was told by one of her nasty foster mothers. in fact, she was rudely and offhandedly told that one-night stands were common where she was conceived, but she felt rather unlucky that she had been a result of one, nevertheless. after she was born, on the advice of her maternal grandmother, her mother put her up for adoption, unaware of the fact she had a congestive heart condition (atrial septal defect, a hole in the heart). this meant she had to go through a lot of expensive surgeries in her childhood, making her seemingly ‘unadoptable’ because "the hospital bed isn’t really a great selling point.” as elle would often describe it.

by the age of three, elle finally became ‘adoptable’, but wasn’t adopted because most families were looking for infants. because of this she was bounced around foster homes her whole life, and many times the family was just looking for a paycheck from the foster care system and didn’t really care anything for elle.

in some homes, she even had to fight off physical abuse from some of the foster mothers, including being slammed into a wall at age five and the foster mother lying about it to a social worker by saying elle fell off a swing. elle’s hard life in foster care and eight very terrible foster homes, made her completely self-reliant. when she wasn’t fostered out, she lived in a group home, where the children in the foster care system lived until they were again fostered out or adopted. elle described it as "a holding cell until we were wanted.“

despite her growing up in unloved foster homes, elle had always had it in her head that love was something everybody should strive for, so knowing she was born out of a possible drunken mistake and not an act of love and adoration weighed on her. she didn’t know much about her biological parents at all, and she wasn’t too keen on asking her various foster parents about them either.

however, for many years up until she was adopted at aged eleven, she had tried to find out who they were, even though she wasn’t entirely sure why she wanted to know so badly. she had no interest in meeting them or even getting closure from them, but somehow it made her remarkably sad that she didn’t know who they were. she had yet to figure out why she was so eager to meet the people that had abandoned her surely, but they must have had a reasonable reason, at least that’s what she told herself for all the lonely years.

as one of the oldest, loneliest, and more imaginative children in her group home one can only imagine her absolute boredom when it came to making her life livelier in a home that stifled such imagination. elle, having such creativity, wittiness, and wonder, lived more in her own dream world than out in the real world. which is why when the group home mother and father went to bed, she would tell the younger children a ‘bedtime story’ of sorts about her parents’ ‘love story’ to make her feel better about her shitty situation. she would go on about how her biological parents had been madly in love to only end in tragedy; meaning they must’ve died sometime after she was born but had hoped she was loved by them regardless.

but of course, her high tales of her parents’ love adventure didn’t faze everyone as some of the older girls and boys, who could sense she was lying, would bully her relentlessly about how she’s a lowly orphan that no one cared about. the older ‘leader’ girl would frequently lead other girls at the group home in acts of physical and psychological abuse towards elle.

as a result of her upbringing, elle developed c-ptsd. more than anything, she wanted to believe her parents wanted her as much as she thought they did in her story, but as she grew up and her childlike mind faded into other important matters, she kind of given up on telling that story to those who would listen. she found herself searching for them in crowds even though she didn’t know what they looked like, but luckily, she knew where she descended from. ancestry had come in incredibly helpful from her somehow smuggling a dna test. it had helped her figure out she was of palestinian and lebanese descent.

her wish for a good home finally came to fortune with liam and marigold woods. liam, who was raised in ireland was an executive producer and director for a very large network, and her mother marigold was a real estate agent from america. she was lucky to end up with such amazing parents and as she grew in their care, she never forgot just how blessed she was to be adopted by them. she found it annoying that their star signs contradicted hers so much though. she mentioned being a gemini whenever she could but living in a home with an aries and a scorpio was pure torture for such a vibrant soul!

despite their differences, her parents encouraged elle’s belief in extraordinary things and hoped she had carried it throughout her life growing up. her parents had always made her promise to have courage and be kind to others, for—as they explained to her—kindness has power, and that they would see her through all the trials that life could offer, in life and death.

as she went through middle school and high school at pacific prep, she dealt with bullying from her peers. she tried to keep up her hard resolve but sometimes it got too much for her to handle. she lost count of how many times she ran home crying her eyes out, tears streaming down her cheeks. she had friends, there was no denying that, but she was anything but popular.

she’s also a very loveable person. her entire personality shone with a beautiful golden glow. however, her sweet nature should not be taken as a sign that she was weak. she was one of the most determined people that walked the earth. she was energetic and outgoing, always ready to try something new and strive for her ambitions, but this didn’t mean she couldn’t be vulnerable when she needed to.

she had always been a very head strong individual, she had one wish and that was to help the people she cared about reach their potential to the maximum. she was a natural born leader, which she showed perfectly to her fellow law students in school. her passion and charisma, mixed with her sheer beauty made it easy for her to inspire others in a number of ways. she was always in a party mood, but her introverted side appeared at the most inconvenient times.

pink was her middle name, wearing it and making it look as good as she did was a personality trait at this point. even if the dress attire was all black, she would whack on some pink heels or put some neon rose earrings into her ears.

elle had faced many changes in her life, but possibly the biggest one of all was coming to terms with her gender and her sexuality. for as long as she could remember, she knew exactly who she was supposed to be. she despised her deadname, a name that had been given to her by an abusive, horrible woman who didn’t care for her or the other foster children. often times, elle had daydreamed about changing it to something else whenever she thought about it.

when she hit twelve years old, she came out to her parents and began helping them understand where her mind was. they were nothing but loving and supportive towards her. she finally felt like she should have all along, finally everything was beginning to make a lot more sense. her feelings of happiness and joy mixed with confusion were laborious for her to go through, but once she figured out who she was meant to be, she felt completely free. as she grew older, she found herself wearing whatever she wanted that was in trend, especially pink outfits.

when she was born, elle didn’t have a given name when she was dropped off at the adoption centre, so she was given one when her foster mom took her in when she was born. when she turned fourteen – a two years after she got adopted into the woods family – she legally changed her name to elle, and that was all that mattered now. as elle began to come to terms with her gender identity and sexuality, she gravitated towards the name elle. she didn’t have much meaning behind the name other than the fact that she was obsessed with the magazine at the time and two, thought it looked positively stunning in her handwriting.

when she joined her college, she fell into a sorority called delta gamma and she joined in her freshman year, but by senior year she was president! it was a huge accomplishment; she had dreamt of being in such a position of power for years. she graduated with a degree in socio-political jewellery design. she studied, partied, had the time of her life, but she couldn’t pretend that she wasn’t excited to see where life took her next.

the next part of her journey was possibly the most exciting when she was accepted to the university of stanford; which was yet another achievement she was remarkably proud of herself for. if she was being honest then, the only reason she wanted to attend the university was to win back her ex-boyfriend warner, but after a week of self-love and a lot of love from her sorority friends, time had passed and she became more engrossed in her studies, she realised that she didn’t need him to prove herself. she was fully capable of getting the law degree she had gone after, as well as proving everyone around her that they had underestimated her. she would show everyone how valuable elle woods could be.

..— VERSE 001 / MAIN [ UCLA ARC ] . .. two years after graduating from pacific prep, traveling the world, and taking some much needed time to decide what she wanted to do after high school — elle eventually applied to university of los angeles to major in sociopolitical jewelry design.

❖ IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT THIS VERSE: firstly, this verse specifically follows elle’s undergrad at ucla ( she goes to ucla in the novel ), so please be specific of which year you want to write in. she’s also in between the ages of twenty to twenty four years old, as well. secondly, warner does exist in this verse and will be mentioned in passing as elle’s boyfriend, however, if we have previously plotted about writing romantic intentions between our characters, warner will be mentioned as an ex to keep the flow of things easily managed.

MAIN VERSES.

..— VERSE 002 / MAIN [ STANFORD ARC ] . .. after being cruelly dumped by her ex-boyfriend warner, elle believed the best possible way of getting him back was to show him how much of a ‘jackie’ she could be by following him to law school herself.

but after much consideration over the summer, time to process the breakup, and some realistic advice from her supportive parents, elle decided that war ner just wasn’t worth the overly expensive mascara-filled tears she was clearly wasting on him. she was brilliant after all (she’s a 4.0 GPA student) and no one seemed to understand that except for her parents or herself, so she decided to take everyone’s underestimation of her in her own pedicured hands and applied to stanford law school to prove to everyone how valuable elle woods can be.

❖ IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT THIS VERSE: firstly, unless i’m writing with an emmett muse in our own thread, he doesn’t exist in elle’s space in this verse. secondly, in my headcanon and also in the novel, elle goes to stanford law rather than harvard law.

❖ IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT THIS VERSE: firstly, while i don’t necessarily follow all of the movie sequel for my canon, what i took from it was that elle did move to dc after getting fired and is now fighting to outlaw animal testing after finding out her dog’s mother is being used for cosmetics testing. secondly, she practices family law full time at a new law firm as an associate which is my own headcanon.
