Elen Iliratis

Elen Iliratis is the daughter of the Ili of the Ratis clan during the "clean era" in Gregora. She is a nurse, which she accomplished with the help of talent chips, via cognitive entrainment.

Her paternal given name means "Shiny" and her family name means "greater hospitality." Iliratis is the Ili branch of the Ratis clan.

Elen has an older brother, but her father initially chose her to eventually take his place as the Ili for the Ratis clan. During her protege training, she became disgusted by one of the Ili, Ilimaix. He was seeking more power than even the other Ili had, and making intimate contact with the engineers. She decided to run away while she was very young, and moved in with a distant relative, Piorke. She learned nursing as well as how to drive several vehicles (because she was medical, she was allowed to use fuel and vehicles when other civilians weren't)

Paeku Raba held Elen's father personally responsible for his wife's death.

In the course of the Diamond Spearhead she met Intrex when she treated him at the hospital in Capital City.
