Elsa

Elsa is the main love interest (LI) in Dreaming with Elsa (2015), the first game ever set in the Elsaverse, which is named after her. She also appears in several other titles, either as a protagonist of some short stories or as a side character. Elsa is the current owner of a bookstore in Sangrive named Elysian Books, and also a "Dream Master". She is in a relationship with Jason.

Personal
Elsa (her last name remains unknown) is a young woman who runs Elysian Books, an independent bookstore in Sangrive that has belonged to her family for generations. In Dreaming with Elsa, the Elsaverse foundational title, she's introduced as a shy and insecure woman, with a very limited and unsatisfying experience in love, and who enjoys reading and connecting people with their desired books. It's also said that she lives alone with her cat, Tora, in an apartment above her bookstore, and never leaves the building. Apparently, and despite having had a happy and sheltered childhood, now Elsa has no friends or relatives, and sometimes she feels trapped in her gilded cage. Events in DwE will change all of that.

Elsa is also the zealous keeper of the "Morpheus", a legendary book of dreams that has been passed from father to son in her family for many generations under the admonishment to never open it again due to the problems it caused in the past. The short story Dream Master (2017) explains the origins of that book, which comes from a parallel universe; Elsa's family origins can be traced back to that universe too (and most likely thanks to the events depicted on that story), as Paul's power confirms in Saving Chloe (2018) that Elsa is a descendant from someone from that world, although she's not officially aware of this. Due to that family warning, when a girl named Chloe came into her bookstore looking for the "Morpheus", Elsa convinced her to give up her search, offering her a job in the store instead. Chloe gladly accepted; however, it turned out that she never stopped searching for the book (it can be inferred that getting it was a Morland's request), and started to plot against Elsa to steal the copy she was hiding at home. But her attempts backfired: not only did Elsa find real love in Jason, the guy Chloe tried to use to lure her out of her home, but she also gained enough confidence to start reading the magical book and overcome Chloe's limited knowledge about dream spells, catching her and forcing her to get out of her life forever. Some time later, though, Chloe will redeem herself in Saving Chloe and both girls will befriend again, with Elsa forgiving Chloe and even thanking her for being the catalyst of her own personal growth.

An immense growth, indeed; maybe too much for her lover. While learning her dream control skills to become a powerful Dream Master, and despite the love they feel for each other, her relationship with Jason started to crumble due to his insecurities and her renewed attitude: she's now a strong, confident woman, and not that shy bookworm he fell in love with. After becoming a key part of Xara's Angels and defeating Morland, Elsa's Nightmares (2019-2020) shows how an inner force within Elsa, named Raven, came out to demand her to take an even bigger step and start to use her power for a greater good. She physically abused Jason in the process, and their relationship suffered severe damage; finally, in Elsaverse: Transitions (2020-2021), during an Elsa's lengthy absence from Sangrive, Jason ends up succumbing to Trisha's charming power and cheats on her, getting the "Morpheus" stolen as a result.

At the current state of events in the Elsaverse, Elsa is in Switzerland, helping Miranda with her health condition and still unaware of her boyfriend's infidelity and the "Morpheus" stealing.

Powers
When Elsa acts as Dream Master, waving her hand is all she needs to execute her wishes on a dream. However, it's not explicitly mentioned whether Elsa has any real power as those that other characters in the Elsaverse have: even though her skills are often labeled as a 'power', especially in Elsa's Nightmares, the way she acquires and develops those skills doesn't match the usual pattern, as she learns spells by reading the "Morpheus", a book that other people can read and learn spells from, too. What is confirmed is that being a direct descendant of someone from the parallel universe allows her to read and understand this book, and thanks (at the very least) to all the knowledge she has acquired from the "Morpheus" full copy she owns, her skills make her one of the most powerful people in Sangrive.

During the games and short stories, Elsa is seen entering other people's dreams at will and effectively communicating with them or spying on them, as well as summoning others into her dreams; she can also recreate different and high-detailed settings in those dreams, and even create real people's facsimiles and interact with them with or without the original person being aware of what's going on. In Finding Miranda (2016) she also makes Karen, who's dead, appear in Lucas dreams, allowing them to talk to each other, although it's not clear whether that's Karen's actual spirit or just a facsimile Elsa made thanks to Lucas' memories of his late wife. In all those cases, whenever her subjects are conscious of the dream they are experiencing, the events in those dreams will be vividly remembered by said subjects after waking up. Precisely, waking people up by entering their dreams, even if those people are sedated, is yet another ability Elsa seems to have.

From the Elsaverse's lore, it's also known that a Dream Master can inflict a punishing dream on people, forcing them to have daily, vivid and unavoidable nightmares, or even to hurt them physically in their dreams. Dream Masters can also help to heal themselves while dreaming, and even fully teach other people a language during a dream.

Miscellaneous

 * Elsa's model was the first render Mortze sent to Tlaero when he offered himself to be her artist and she requested a beautiful and sexy girl as proof of his abilities. Upon seeing Mortze's beauty canon, Tlaero decided not only to accept his offer and take him as her new artist but also to honor that model's quality by designing a whole fictional universe around her.


 * To emphasize Elsa's initial characterization in DwE as a book lover who never goes out, during one of her dream dates with Jason she gets an obscure Star Wars reference and then admits that she has never watched the film, but read the book instead.
