Tuvalu

Tuvalu, also known by her human name of Elisala Paeniu, is a gentle and very carefree person. She is young compared to many countries, and has not lived through much of the same trauma that her neighbors in Oceania have, and it shows.

Tuvalu rarely thinks of war or conflict and thinks that if she works hard enough, she can find a diplomatic solution to everything. Born in a time of peace and living a peaceful life, she believes that she is strong for trying her best to be gentle and show kindness. Tuvalu is not naive nor easily manipulated, just a gentle person who chooses every day to be kind. It is her choice to be that way.

Tuvalu is also very carefree. She does not worry easily and always finds time to enjoy her life. She loves being able to participate in community events and has very little worry outside of her worries over climate change and her future, which is the one thing that darkens her attitude. This is why she focuses on living in the present–because she knows it is there now, and she wants to make the most of everything and anything she has.
