ELLIANA ALLON... was seven years old when her daddy left her. She never understood the reality of the situation, not when her mother would explain it one way when she was seven and another when eleven. She felt as if she'd never get to the truth of what happened.

AS SHE GREW... Elliana began to piece together what she believe might've happened to her father and finally made the connection when she turned fifteen years old. Due to this, she decided she wanted to spend her life bringing justice to people who needed it and deserved it, finally sparking an interest when she heard of the FBI's Behavioural Analysis Unit, determined to get there. She decided forensic psychology and sociology would be the way to go.

AS SHE JOINED THE ACADEMY... her mother passed away and left her completely alone. She put all of her work into the academy, trying her best to become the absolute best agent she hoped to be, especially when she knew it could be a pathway into the BAU. She worked tirelessly and consistently overachieved in the academy due to her hard work and her previously mentioned need to bring justice after she'd discovered why her father had left her and her mother.

WHEN SHE TURNED 24... she had completed her training at the FBI academy and began as a rookie agent, working hard and being one fo the best newbies the FBI had ever seen, as it was said when she was offered a higher up position yet it wasn't the one she wanted; she wanted the BAU.

AND AFTER A YEAR OF SERVICE... the BAU section chief, Erin Strauss, approached Elliana and offered her a role in the BAU as a supervisory special agent. She remembered feeling giddy as she whispered the words SSA Allon to herself but the fear of meeting a new team began to eat her up. She knew she'd push past it though, she was used to doing so. Her comfort zone was a restrictive box and she no longer felt love for it like she used to.

AND NOW... she had her dream job. She just had to figure out how to stomach it.
