Physical Age: Hard to say, somewhere in the range of 100-200, as far as elves go, relatively young.
Mental Age: Seemingly closer to 6.
Height: Roughly 5'2", 5'4" if you include her hair.
Weight: Light enough to pick up, although doing so is hazardous (she even has a warning label pasted somewhere on her person).
Should You Have True Seeing On
(There's a small warning label on the back of her hat (provided she's wearing it):
WARNING: <Unstable>
Attempts to pick up and carry off the person bearing this label is not recommended as it can result in a tremendous scream. Analysis has shown that frequency of said scream exceeds the capacity of most hearing capable creatures to tolerate. You may experience the following symptoms:
Headache, nausea, lightheadedness, trouble breathing, sudden paralyzation of muscles, blindness, temporary or permanent deafness, involuntary bowel movement, symptoms similar to a narcoleptic attack, inexplicable genital pain, muscle spasms, complete cellular degeneration, loss of surface tension, dehydration, or irrational fear, anger, or confusion.
Should these symptoms persist, please contact your local cleric and refrain from picking up this person in the future.

Glelaclya (or Glee as she prefers), has a past that has largely been shrouded in mystery.
When asked about her parentage and origins, her evasive answers serve only to perplex the mind more - although she is perfectly forthcoming in responses, their vague and usually convoluted references serve only two possibilities: she is either a total idiot, or very good at pretending to be a total idiot. Assuming the former is easy, and most often reinforced by her behavior.
Nevertheless, this typically jovial, if not overly naive, young elf wears surprisingly somber colored garments, cut to fit an almost as surprisingly well-toned body. Her appetite also leaves something to be desired - young Glee is perfectly capable of devouring four to five times her mass in food and whether this is stored in some extra-dimensional space or simply burned off by her exuberance is another mystery that only time (and perhaps a scientific dissection) can tell.
Beneath the Facade (For those who actually read the bios more than once):
Glee's true age is 135, and she is the bearer of a rather interesting curse, which manifests very much like multiple personalities disorder. The basis for this curse is an arm protector locked around her right hand, normally mistaken for an archer's wrist guard. The guard houses a demon, spawned during a ceremony her parents attempted to conduct in order to harness great power for their secluded enclave of elves.
Glee had the misfortune of interrupting said ceremony, which allowed the demon to break free and possess her. What ensued then was the massacre of an entire clan of elves, including all of Glee's family. Her mind broken by the violence, her personality split into fourteen facets, of which the demon has locked away all but five:
The joy child - Glee's main personality is the joy child, the naive and slightly stupid six year old that has no recollection of her life before stumbling into the company of said adventurers. She is gullible, joyful, and energetic, and seems perpetually caught in puberty, eating constantly and of the belief that her hair is in fact a creature which requires her hat to keep it under control. The demon takes great pride in this personality as it is the facade under which he can regenerate himself, consuming nutrients from the food she eats. His most recent excursion using her body was almost 2 decades prior and left him thoroughly exhausted, thus the joy child has been the dominant personality since.
The somber experience - Glee's secondary personality, who manifests during moments when even the joy child cannot bear the moment's tenseness. She is the adult Glee, and speaks solely in fluent Elven, with bouts of short terse common that has been gleaned over the years. She manifests in bursts and is the only personality who recalls Glee's former life, however because she does not associate it with herself, it is a disconnected awareness.
The honorable soldier - A shock absorber personality. When Glee goes through moments of intense emotional shock or disappointment, she reverts to this personality defensively. During this time, she believes she's a male of roughly sixteen years in age in the midst of training and exams for being accepted into the military. This personality is temporary and generally fades back to the joy child. It is believed this is actually the embodiment of one of her elder brothers, who was able to bind the demon into the bracelet to prevent its escape, before he was murdered by Glee.
The brooding death - A personality that is actually a fragment of one of the bound fourteen. It is a personality totally engulfed in rage, and is harnessed by the demon in the bracelet on rare occasions when it requires something of Glee. This personality has never manifested in the view of others, as it is the embodiment of all that is evil within her.
The bullied fetus - This is the true Glee, left unbound in order for the demon to feed upon her doubts and fears. This personality has largely been buried by Glee's subconscious and is impossible to rouse while the demon remains alive. There's largely very little original personality left in this shell, and should it manifest, it would simply be a blank staring creature who cringes and cries at the slightest movement.
