Elsha is a djinn monk from the Jeskai Way on Tarkir.
History
Elsha plays an important role in the Jeskai Way.[1] Her talents were not recognized under Ojutai; her zeal and desire for action caused unending conflicts with her teachers.[2] Frustrated and dissatisfied, she was easily drawn to the passion and purpose the rebels offered and fought alongside them to overthrow Ojutai. In the reformed clan, Elsha, not one for staying in the same place for too long, spends her time traveling between the three major monasteries. A master of all three Jeskai schools, she spends her time training others and encouraging her students to seek new perspectives to truly understand the meaning of unity and the Way. Elsha mentored the aven monk Xho Cai.
Alternate timeline
In the original timeline of Tarkir, Elsha was the first-ever djinni to earn the title of head abbot of the Sage-Eye Stronghold.[3] Elsha was more than capable of leading. Strong, patient, and wise, she was an unparalleled master of martial magic, using her quick reflexes to cast spells in the blink of an eye.
