Conquest
If you choose Nohr, Elise and her siblings will join the Avatar. She is the first sibling to join your army in that route. After the revealing of Garon's true form, she, along with the other siblings, is reluctant in killing him, as she has difficulties reconciling said true form with the memories of the father she knew.
Revelation
She is the second of her siblings to join your army, starting in the Chapter 14. Having overheard Iago and Hans mention Camilla has joined the Avatar's army, she realizes she is not a traitor as Xander and Leo believe and slips out of Castle Krakenburg to join the Avatar. Camilla attempts to convince her to rejoin Leo and Xander for her own safety, but she insists on staying with the Avatar even if it means coming to blows with her brothers.
Personality
The youngest of the Nohrian siblings, Elise's personality is defined by a pronounced lack of jadedness or cynicism, and is instead imbued with traits that are common to a child: juvenile, innocent and pure. Tenderly loving her siblings, she does not hesitate to be generous in her displays of affection for them, which is particularly pronounced in her treatment of the Avatar; right when she is first introduced in Chapter 1, she hurls herself into their arms and tightly embraces them in response to their professing their love for her. Yet another example illustrating this fact is that of her choice to dye specific strands of her hair purple in order to match the hair color sported by Camilla. Elise became extremely close to the Avatar despite the fact that they are an adopted sibling, and she truly sees the Avatar as an integral part of the family.
Despite her childish antics, Elise is known to be immensely astute in her observations of the situations that she finds herself involved in, adeptly adjusting her behavior to suit the occasion. Despite her often childish mannerisms and behaviors, Elise has demonstrated herself to be strongly selfless and courageous in the face of danger, especially when protecting those she dearly loves. This side of her is demonstrated in her largely in the later chapters, where she put herself in great peril to protect her brother.
Through her supports with Sakura, it is revealed that Elise is proficient at playing the violin, a fact that later sees the pair strengthening their friendship by performing duets alongside Sakura's koto. Her birthday is March 19th.

- Following her trials during the war, Elise returned to Nohr a wiser and more refined lady. People across the world grew to adore her for her kindness, and she was applauded as being a perfect princess.

Trivia
- Elise is the only one of the Nohrian Royalty Siblings to start out in a base class.
- She is the only Nohr royal sibling who is not a commander on any map in the Birthright path, in addition to not having a character from Awakening being one of her retainers.
- Elise placed 4th in the official character popularity poll held on the game's official site for the females.
- Elise was the 6th most popular character in the popularity poll issued by Famitsu.
- Elise placed 5th in the character popularity poll issued by Nintendo Dream. She was the highest ranked female character on the list, excluding the Avatar who placed 3rd.
- Elise, Sakura, Azama, and Laura are the only named characters who are staff-locked and can't be recruited in chapters they appear as enemies. Of the four characters, Elise is the only one who is only fought once on a single playthrough.
- Elise's official artwork and portrait depicts her with a Heal Staff.
- Elise has four fingers on her right hand on her official art; this might be an uncaught error.
- According to her supports with Azura, Elise was born after Azura was kidnapped by Hoshido, and in Azura's support with Arthur, he said it has been more than 10 years since he had last seen her. This could possibly mean that Elise is at least over 10 years old at the start of the game. However, Elise is also a marriage candidate in the game, so she would have to be at least 13-14 years old since noblewomen in Medieval/Renaissance ages would marry at such age. (for example, Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet puts Juliet's age as thirteen and implies that her mother, Lady Capulet, was in a similar age bracket when she married and had her). Leo also states "Elise, when do you intend to behave like the adult that you technically are?" at the end of chapter 1, further proving that she is at the very least 13 years old.
- Note that this is only in the localized versions of the game, in the Japanese version of the game, Leo said "Good grief, you're a kid as usual", and many characters in the Japanese version, including herself when depressed, call her a child, with both her height, and childish behavior enforcing this fact. This suggests that the localization team most likely increased her age to technical adult status in order to ease worries of a young girl being a marriage candidate in the game.
- In the her second conversation with Sakura, in the Nohrian Festival of Bonds DLC, Elsie said that the two of them, were girls of marriageable age, meaning that Elise is of age, with her short height and childish personality, belittling her actual age.
- Elise shares her critical quote "No more holding back" with her retainers Arthur and Effie.
