* [[Characterization Marches On]]: Elf started out as a short-tempered tomboy grunt who was intimidated by intelligence and who abused stims to manage grief. Around the end of book 7 / beginning of book 8, she began to reveal the [[Hidden Depths]] of intelligence, wit, and responsibility that define her today. "Coincidentally," this happened not long after two in-universe [[Fan Service Pack]]s and just before she started dating Kevyn.
* [[Drowning My Sorrows]]: [http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2003-12-18 Early on], she was [http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2005-12-08 abusing] [[Bottled Heroic Resolve|combat stimmies]] to cope with her various troubles. Which didn't make things better, between addiction, mood swings being much worse and [http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2006-01-30 restlessness] helping her to walk into troubles she could have skipped otherwise.
* [[Huge Guy, Tiny Girl]]: At first, Elf was much, much smaller than the male members of the group, especially Brad. But the addition of giant prosthetic legs fixed that eventually. Later she gets a body upgrade during one of her regrowths.
* [[Lady of War]]: After kicking her stim habit and getting her current body, Elf eventually matured into this.
