Ella (Matriarch): The only currently surviving ruling council member from the Venmare enclave's founding era, Ella was a clear pick for Matriarch status due to her quick wit and wily attitude, traits that -- combined with her signature verbal coarseness -- led to many important initiatives being quickly enacted from the moment of her instatement onward. She's getting on in years and knows it, but it hasn't stopped her from continuing to provide the entire enclave her guidance and compassion in equal measure.
