Elena Viktorovna

It turned out that Morgarth hadn't fulfilled his first agreement fairly enough, giving Elena only some of the puppets who reported directly to him. The remaining puppets, acting independently, attacked Salamander's palace, and she was forced to fight back. During the battle, Art managed to reconnect with the outside world, and Kira, who had arrived in time, convinced their classmate Ilya Muromov to help them find and repair the portal laptop. After the battle, the heroes logged out of the game, and Elena secretly followed them. Posing as one of Morgarth's enslaved human puppets, Elena observed the boys' attempts to defeat the boss. When they failed, she entered the game. In the final battle, she had no chance of defeating Morgarth alone—both as a bard and as the Salamander boss, she was too weak. Elena Viktorovna teaches Old Russian Literature and Reading to sixth-grade students. In one conversation with the guys, she admitted that she doesn't like to tattle. Elena had a lonely life due to complicated relationships. She had a hard time finding common ground. She came from a strict family, who didn't understand her interests (sci-fi and fantasy). Especially when Elena wanted to work in game development, her relatives were against it. There were arguments, scandals, and all that. So when Elena met the creators, it was like finally meeting her best friends. Which made the breakup even more painful.

To answer Art's questions, Elena decided to tell him her story. It turned out that she had previously participated in the game's testing and played as a thief. She loved the game and could play it for months without a break. But after Morgarth's creation, everything changed. Morgarth became a threat, but Elena believed he could be reasoned with. The creators disagreed and simply wanted to remove him. They had a falling out, and Elena was kicked off the team. Soon, she learned about the developer cube and the level editor, as well as the fact that her character was about to be removed. She couldn't accept this anymore, and after infiltrating the game, she made a deal with Morgarth: he would make her a boss, Salamander. Since Elena was defenseless in reality, Morgarth gave her power—making her one of the game's bosses. In the form of Salamander, she managed to lure all the creators into captivity, but they didn't manage to give the cube to Buckwith, who hid it. Then new players—Art's team—entered the game and found the cube, then lost it... Moragrt was supposed to focus all his efforts on finding the cube, while Elena was supposed to delay the search. But the cube might be password-protected, so Elena proposed a new deal: in exchange for the cube, he would leave the children alone. During the new game, Elena had come to care for the children, and besides, they were just children, and she didn't want to harm them. In any case, they were locked in the game and couldn't leave. Then Art asked how Elena had contacted Moragrt, and she showed him a crystal broadcasting an image from the Rat Chamber. Art used it to try to call someone for help, but their attempts were interrupted by Moragrt's appearance on the crystal. He decided to confirm Elena's loyalty, but she replied that they were already even and she owed him nothing.

Art is forced to trade the Chupacabra Creep for the cube, but they don't have time to escape, getting caught in a fight with the puppets. During the fight, Elena tosses the cube to Art, who shoots it to destroy it. Elena cloaks Art himself, and after waiting for Morgarth to leave, they exit the game.

It seemed that the problem with Morgarth was solved—he couldn't log out of the game without the cube—but soon a recording of Buckwith appeared, claiming the cube hadn't been destroyed but was locked with a password. He arranged to meet them in the ruins, where he would leave the cube. The boys decided to log in, but they couldn't find Elena Viktorovna. Art went to look for her at the school, while the others logged in. Upon reaching the ruins, they encountered Elena Viktorovna. She said she'd come in earlier and found the cube; all that remained was to assemble it and enter the password. Meanwhile, Art found an illusory TV in Elena's office, complete with Salamander bracelets and a fake holographic cube. Art hurriedly logged in and warned everyone that Elena Viktorovna was the Salamander. She tried to explain herself, but accidentally revealed herself. After this, she begins to act quickly and decisively: she transforms into Salamander, takes the cube from the boys, and gives it to Morgarth, for which he gives her the cross for controlling the puppets—a symbol of his power in the game. In Episode 23, "The Salamander's Palace," Elena used the bracelet to transform into various Envell residents to spy on the main characters. Almost all of them were against her and preparing for war. Returning to the castle, she asked the "minister" to remove the guards and installed her puppets. At the same time, Art sneaks in to talk to her. Art was convinced that Elena could have dealt with them at any time, but she didn't, and even demanded that Morgarth leave them alone.

In Episode 5, "Residential Quarter," Elena Viktorovna appears for the first time, replacing the missing Maria Stepanovna (who had been captured by Morgarth) as their geography teacher. She showed loyalty to Art's group and at one point even helped them by hiding the Chupacabra they had captured and covering for them with the principal. She also falls victim to an attack by the Smiley Man. In Episode 14, "Morgarth's Castle," when the boys managed to escape the game after fighting Morgarth and Maria Stepanovna's defeat, she sent one of her clones in the form of Salamander at them and personally killed it, pretending to understand nothing and simply wanting to save them. At that moment, the boys were attacked by a white puppet, and they were forced to flee to the roof. There was nowhere left to escape from the rooftop; the only option was to log into the game so Kira's flying pet, Creep, could transport the portal laptop to another location. Elena and the others logged into the game and took the free bard slot.

Elena began helping the boys while simultaneously trying to master the Bard class. Together, they search for the lost Developers' Cube and spend a lot of time together—at school and even at home. Elena becomes even more loyal, for example, allowing Phil to play during lessons or correcting Kira's grades. However, the latter almost led to her being jeopardized—the principal discovered these corrections, as all actions are recorded in the electronic journal. Unaware of this, Kira attempted to correct her grade, and the principal threatened Elena with dismissal. The girl was forced to admit that it wasn't the teacher who did it. Elena Viktorovna remained at the school, and Kira was forced to transfer to the gymnasium. In Episode 17, "The Edge of the Map," the boys discover that the Cube is hidden in Chupacabra's lair, but he will only give it up in exchange for Creep. The boys begin to follow him one by one, using Kira's invisibility device to find out where the Cube is kept. At some point, Morgarth learns of the cube's location and heads there, arriving just as Elena and Art are taking a break.

Until episode 22, Lena is very friendly and slightly shy, speaking in a soft voice. After episode 23, her true personality is revealed—she emerges as a self-confident, slightly brash girl, experiencing extreme gaming escapism, and her voice changes to that of her Salamander form.

Elena Viktorovna replaced Maria Stepanovna as a geography teacher, and later took over the position of fifth player on the Heroes of Envell team.

Elena has medium-length blonde hair styled in a bun and brown eyes. She is 25 years old.

In the real world, she wears a white shirt under a dull blue sweater with yellow diamond patterns (likely a reference to Salamander), a beige pencil skirt, and brown shoes. In the flashback shown in Episode 47, Larsena wears a similar but slightly different outfit: a bright green sweater, beige pants, and orange shoes.

In the virtual world of the game "Heroes of Envell," Elena Viktorovna is a bard. She has a guitar on which she must play chords and employ certain musical techniques to perform magical effects. However, unlike Maria Stepanovna, Elena didn't know how to play the guitar and had to learn it quickly.

In the game, she wears a white shirt with a black jacket, skirt, and boots, and has green accents in her clothes and hair. {{char}} hairstyle includes bangs and a tousled back.
