Elizabeth Mendel (Mysticverse)

For other uses of "Elizabeth Mendel", see Elizabeth Mendel (disambiguation). "'This damn necklace apparently does have powers because it made the snow that night somehow give my partner powers.'" ~Elizabeth reveals what happened to her and Lorelai that night.

Elizabeth Mendel is a detective at the CCPD and the partner of Lorelai Snart. She believed she was a normal human being until Dr. Harrison Wells reveals to her she is actually a Drakonian.

Early Life
Elizabeth was conceived in Drakonia and, as an egg, traveled to Earth where she was born as a Draglet and subsequently lived with Thomas and Chloe Mendel until adulthood. It is believed that her scales, tail, and other dragon-like features shed as she aged, but her bright blue eyes remained. Sometime before the pilot, she met Cisco Ramon and became best friends with him to the point of them living together.

Birth of the Drakonian
Elizabeth becomes Lorelai Snart's partner at the CCPD and the two are tasked with their first case together, taking down robbers Clyde and Mark Mardon. Elizabeth breathed fire for the first time, protecting Lorelai and they later use their abilities to take down Clyde together. Elizabeth agrees to help Dr. Harrison Wells and Cisco obtain the Zodiac Gems.

Personality
Elizabeth comes off as cocky and careless and also has a fiery personality, but overall she cares for people she grows close to. For example, when she first met Lorelai, she appeared to dislike her on the spot, but the two quickly bonded after their first case together. She also immediately snapped at Hartley Rathaway upon meeting him, but for some reason, immediately took a liking to Harrison Wells despite calling him 'crazy' momentarily after he told her she was a Drakonian going as far as hugging him after her first mission which Cisco and Lorelai believed to be 'out of character' for her.
