Fifth Series - Eleanor Derage

Acting as Emma's unofficial parental guardian, Eleanor Derage is one of the very few people in the world who has still knows about Human history and the wonders of technology, actually hoarding quite a bit of it in her observatory home.

Whilst, for all intents and purposes, she appears to be a kind, sweet old lady, Eleanor was once a prominent member of the Human rebellion, only going into hiding to raise Emma. However her passion never died and she passed on all of knowledge and her sleeping anger, onto her young and impressionable granddaughter. Now some years later, she has come to regret this, seeing as it has turned an innocent child into a bitter fighter.

With regards to the rest of the group, Eleanor acts as a sort of mother figure, often giving advice and calling for calm and order. Whilst she isn't much of a fighter any more, she is most certainly the brains of the organisation.

In a similar way to Emma, I wanted Eleanor to be a very visual part of the Human rebellion. However, she exists as a very different side of the rebellion, often having to reign in her granddaughter. Apart from that as well, she does have secrets of her own. Things that won't be revealed for some time...
