Elizabeth Kobayashi

Elizabeth (エリザベス, Erisabesu) is one of the main characters in the series Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon.

Eri is a young female dragon, who first came to visit everyone and thank Kobayashi for helping them adjust to human living. She adopts the name Eri Kobayashi (小林 Kobayashi Eri) as her human alias after she begins to live with Kobayashi as her third dragon resident.

Appearance
In her human form, Eri is a small girl with bluish, off-white hair which is parted in the middle of her forehead, almost reaching down to her waist. She has very wide, innocent-looking eyes, which are bright red in color. Her style of clothing has been described as "vintage victorian" (courtesy of Kobayashi). Her usual attire consists of a black dress with a frilled peter pan-collar with three golden buttons down the middle. Under this, she wears a large set of tan boots, and a small dark red messenger bag with the strap sitting over her right shoulder, and a little floral pattern decorating one of its sides.

In her dragon form, she appears as a feathered white dragon with red eyes, whose appearance differs considerably from a traditional Dragon's appearance. She has a white feathered body, rather than scales. The fur extends down the neck and to the upper chest region. Her dragon form has been described as "fox like" as she has fox like horns and three tails.

Like Kanna, she hides her horns, tail and wings when outside.

In the anime, Elizabeth's hair is given an extra shade of pink and purple at the tips. In place of her usual clothing, Eri wears a light blue frock during the summer months, and a pink nightgown to sleep.

After moving to the new house, Eri wears a royal blue dress with a skirt that goes down just below the knees. Long white sleeves and a cape held together by a ribbon. The dress has a white high collar with trimmed borders. A pair of white socks and a pair of brown shoes with darker laces. Accessories include a matching royal blue beret with a with white ribbon.

Personality
Eri is a timid and polite girl. She is soft-spoken and quiet and tends to hide most of her emotions. She's initially portrayed as insecure, doubting her ability to help her allies, however Eri has become more confident and brave as time goes on, and she always tries to be of help wherever she can. She is intelligent and has a very honest personality, is "direct and reserved with her emotions", and is easily swayed by the people around her. She can be spontaneous and "very ditzy". Unlike the other Dragons, Eri doesn't enjoy fighting, preferring to avoid it as much as possible. If, however, it's for the sake of her friends, Eri will fight without hesitation. Despite having a tragic past, Elizabeth behaves no differently from a normal child as she is easily amazed by new things and enjoys playing games. Elizabeth is naturally observant and curious but is confused as to how she should react to the modern world, questioning as to whether or not she gets along with her classmates.

Background
The details on her past are unknown but it is mentioned that she had a tragic past.

Powers and Abilities
Like all dragons, her physical strength is superhuman. She's strong enough to throw Tohru several miles up into the air and was able to stand toe-to-toe against Lucoa and Fafnir in their game of dodgeball. Through her nickname, it is hinted at that she was born a chaos dragon.

Elizabeth has the ability to the ability to manipulate air. Unlike Tohru, who can generate her mana to sustain her frequent magic usage, Elizabeth has to absorb mana from her surroundings. Her Magic also allows her to heal people with the gravest of injuries, even those caused by a Dragon. Her proficiency in healing allows her to use even just a kiss to heal other people and she can counteract other Magic. Her Magic also has support spells, which can increase attack power and speed, to both herself and her others. As stated by Tohru, Elizabeth can eat air to replenish her mana, but can't heal as well in polluted areas. Her Magic also allows her to sense air currents, which can be used to predict the weather.

Unlike Kanna, Elizabeth is skilled in the usage of spells, making her a proficient enchanter.
