Laetannian

"Clad in heavy armor from head to toe and blessed by the Goddess of Prophecy herself, these courageous and selfless Knights are the final guardians of Humanity and Athrunial, they are our saviors of our last resort." 
- A Grail nun to a traveler
The Laetannians commonly called "High Imperials" is a sub race of augmented and blessed humans whom were originally created and bred carefully by the Divine Being, Lendira with the very intention of preparing Athrunial for the next Deadra invasion with her Knights of Laetannia at the front. After the Dark Ages had finally ended with the resealing of the portals to Oblivion, Lendira began her preparations for when the portals would open once more, Athrunial would be ready to face such danger. Using her first Grail Knight whom battled Necris to save Athrunial as her inspiration, Lendira used her divine power to create the first set of augmented humans that would later be known as Laetannians. These humans that Lendira had created were almost superhuman in nature, having been blessed by Lendira to have secondary sets of organs, their bones became strong as steel as well as other blessing however the most important note was that Lendira had indoctrinated these humans to have the mindset to have the ideals and beliefs of the very first Grail Knight. After their creation, Lendira aided the first Laetannians in the founding of "The Holy Kingdom of Laetannia" and took her place as it's guardian's and it's true ruler from above to carefully groom the Laetannians into the ultimate soldiers for humanity.
== Biology and appearance ==
=== Physiology and Diversity ===
As with other sub species of human, Laetannian looked identical to a baseline human with similar features however unlike baseline humans and Rominians, Laetannians always had pale skin and were thin, it was nearly impossible to find a Laetannian with dark skin or overweight unless it was a mutation or caused by corruption. Interior wise however was a completely different story, while it was true Laetannians do have the same basic anatomy of a baseline human, Laetannians were created with the sole intention of battling and slaying the Deadra in battle, because of this, a Laetannian had a number of unique features amongst their race including a
* Secondary Heart - in the case of the original failing in a situation, the secondary heart would take it's place as well as pumping adrenaline into the original, allowing a Laetannian a rush of temporary energy on the battlefield. 
* Bones of Steel - the skeleton or the bones within the Laetannian become incredibly strong, so strong they are comparable to the strength of steel. The rib cage will become fused as a solid bone/steel plate to grant the Laetannian to take far greater amounts of damage than any other human could possibly hope for.
* Nacelle Gland - Located somewhere in the Cerebral cortex of the brain, The Nacelle Gland allows Laetannian to function normally for far longer than any human without sleep. Through the use of this gland, half the mind of a Laetannian can rest while the other half continues to function however the downside that while a Laetannian can go without sleep for a week and function normally, Laetannians require far more sleep than regular humans after staying awake for long period of times to the point a Laetannian may have to sleep for a week afterwards after staying awake for so long.
* Grail Gland - Another gland located within the brain, this gland allows for a Laetannian suppress certain emotions such as fear and jealously for clarity of the mind before battle. With this, a Laetannian knight will never flee from battle from fear.
* Secondary Lungs - similar to the secondary heart, a Laetannian has a second set of lungs in case the original fails then this set can take over. These secondary Lungs work in congestion with the original lungs, allowing a Laetannian to gasp for more air and allowing for one to hold their breath far longer than regular humans.
=== Life cycle and reproduction ===
Due to a Laetannian having a far more advanced body than regular humans, it takes a Laetannian far longer to give birth with the gestation period taking anywhere from a year to two years before the infant is fully developed. Once the Laetannian is born, it will take twenty five years for the infant to fully develop into an adult. Those whom are not part of the noble class such as merchants and commoners are freely permitted by Lendira to reproduce whenever and with anyone not of the Noble or Divine Class they want however one must be married and have a stable income. Those of the Noble class are highly encouraged to only marry and reproduce with the strongest, most skilled and most intelligent in an attempt to produce the next generation of Laetannia Knights whom will be far stronger than the last and hopefully a few can become Grail Knights.
== Personality and Traits ==
As expected of a Laetannian, it is almost impossible for a Laetannian to not be not of a noble nature due to them receiving this mindset upon birth and eventual their uprising as well. Laetannians are noble beings whom are fanatical in nature, upholding the codes of chivalry and justice above all else, even at the risk of death. Laetannians are so fanatical to their beliefs implanted into them at birth, such beliefs have made them proud, unyielding and prideful to the point of stubbornness where it is impossible to persuade a Laetannian of it's ideals and beliefs.
== Powers and abilities ==
Laetannians in general are quite similar to baseline humans and other sub-race humans in powers in abilities. Being human, Laetannians are capable of learning of any trade or any method of battle however due to their bodies anatomy having second sets of organs, stronger bones within their body and having a far more advanced mind than baseline humans, Laetannians are capable of suppressing emotions to allow one to not be effect by emotions such as fear and sorrow, there advanced mind also allows a Laetannian to operate far longer than any regular human without sleep. Their biggest blessing however is their second set of organs which allows most Laetannians to live much longer than other humans and contribute to the operation of their body. With second sets of organs and bones comparable to steel in strength, Laetannians make excellent soldiers, able to charge into battle and take far more damage than any mortal. They are able to receive wounds that would kill lesser men and women and continue to battle as if they weren't wounded at all. Such blessing come at a steep cost however as Laetannians have almost no potential to unlock the usage of energy and magic to the point only one in a hundred thousand will have the potential to wield magic and even If they do, they will never be as powerful as other magic users of other races since their body does not generate as much spiritual and physical energy.
== Society and culture ==
Laetannians were a warrior like race like many other human races however unlike other sub-races of humans like the Rominians whom were violent and uncivilized in their society, Laetannians lived to an extremely strict code of chivalry, every Laetannian was expected to be honorable in their every day life,to be selflessness to oneself, to others and their duty, be courageous and vigilant on and off the battlefield, to bring justice and order to all places and to show humility. Due to their origins and creation, all Laetannians are born to have the same ideals and beliefs, fanatically believing in working together in harmony for the "Greater Good" for their society and Athrunial itself whether it be in Leatannia or some other place. Their ideals and beliefs make them excellent Knights and the most loyal and honest servants one could find since doing the opposite would be against their very being as a Laetannian.
Besides their martial strength and ideals whom they cling onto tightly, all Laetannians are known to be highly religious beings, reserving a great amount of time to paying homage and respect to the Goddess of Prophecy and to pay respect to fallen Laetannia Heroes whom demand respect. It should be noted that Laetannia only worship Lendira due to her being their true master and creator, hence why you never see a Laetannia worship another Divine Being, even Aeadra. Their worship of Lendira is so important to a Laetannian, Laetannians appear as fanatic's to her worship. This dedication is often looked at by other races as brainwashing however to a Laetannia, this is the complete opposite and doesn't expect someone who isn't one of their own or doesn't live in Laetannian society to understand how they function and why they do the things they do.

== Notable Laetannians ==
=== The Nameless Warrior ===
Known widely as "The Hero of Time" and to those whom know the truth as "The Nameless One", Was the legendary warrior whom became the First Grail Knight to have ever existed and did battle with Necris to save the world from destruction. The legendary tale of a mighty knight cladded in shining armor doing battle with the God of Creation and Destruction, Necris had became a tale of legend since the both of their presumed deaths and is common knowledge to the people of Athrunial however most consider it nothing more than an old myth of old rather than a tale having any truth to it. Although this warrior was not technically a Laetannian, all Laetannians, especially Laetannian Knights and those knights whom aspire to follow in his footsteps worship him highly as the "Father of the Grail" and as the "Arch Saint of Laetannia" for the ideals he stood and presumably died for. Almost no one living or dead today on Athrunial knows the true fate of the First Grail Knight whom was transformed by Necris into the very first Vyreadra and became a Dark Lord after his battle with Necris and lives to this day as the King of the Vyreadra within Aklator, at the center of the world.
=== Asselyna ===
Known as "Saint Asselyna", "The Maiden of Avondance" and as "The First Lady of Cinder", was the first Female woman of Laetannia to have served Lendira as a Grail Knight. In the most ancient of sacred texts, it was said that Asselyna was the only child of the Laetannia Duke, Gauchier le Cler of Avondance yet however due to the reason she was a daughter and not the son her father wanted, Asselyna was never groomed to take her father's position as ruler of the city and their noble house. This all changed during the opening stages of the Storm of Darkness when her father was called upon by High King Naudin to serve in his army against the Vyreadra threat. Shortly after her father had departed, her father and the majority of High King's Naudin's army was massacred at the battle of Albrade, leaving Laetannia completely defenseless for a time. When the Vyreadra on the horizon, Asselyna was given no choice but to take command of Avondance and her remaining Knights in it's defense when the Vyreadra finally besieged the city. Through her actions during the battle, choosing to lead her people through her example, Asselyna managed to inspire the people of Avondance and her Knights to great feats of courage and sacrifice and through such sacrifices, Asselyna was able to save her home and those who lived there however now a Knight in her own right with the surviving Knights pledging their allegiance to her sword, Asselyna firmly believed it was her duty to defend Laetannia now against the Vyreadra even at the stake of her own life. The years that followed proved Asselyna eventually proved she was a true daughter of Laetannia when she and her small army of Knights almost single handily held off the entire Vyreadra advance at Lalier pass long enough until she was eventually she was reinforced by the High King's forces. Soon afterwards, Asselyna became famed for leading her Knights of Avondance into battle where victory was thought to be impossible yet through all odds, Asselyna not only brought victory after victory for Laetannia, she was even able to push the Vyreadra back into Aklator for a time before being forced to make a tactical withdraw after her forces had become exhausted. It was said Asselyna was made into a Grail Knight by Lendira during the siege of Busseroux when the Laetannia force was outnumbered one to hundred however despite the hopeless situation, Asselyna showed no fear in her eyes nor any urge to falter the battle to the Vyreadra. Her selfless and courage convinced Lendira to offer her the Holy Grail, to make her into one of the Legendary Grail Knights. Asselyna accepted Lendira's offer and through her new demi-god like power, she along with her newly inspired Knights were able to smash through the Vyreadra force where Asselyna slew Lynnesha, the Nameless One's Arch Deadra in single combat albeit being mortally wounded. Although she could no longer properly fight due to her mortal wound inflicted on her by Glaia, Asselyna continued to lead her Knights in battle for many more years until finally the Storm of Darkness had came to a close. Following this great conflict, Asselyna gave up her position as Duchess of Avondance to fulfill her duties as a Grail Knight. When word was finally reached the present Lord of Cinder's soul had been finally absorbed by the First Flame, Asselyna choose to voluntarily sacrifice her own soul to the flame to keep the planet together, becoming the next Lord of Cinder and the First Lady of Cinder.
=== Avenel ===
Known widely throughout Athrunial as "The Dragon Knight of Laetannia", for riding his Dragon, Qupien Broken Scales into battle. Avenel was a famed Grail Knight who had lived for over two hundred years, participating in the The Bermon War as a Knight of the Round under High King Naudin to the The Storm of Darkness where he served as a Grail Knight of Lendira and adviser to the Knight Asselyna before her ascension to Grailhood herself. Avenel's last appearance was during The War of the Embers where he spent several years chasing after Qupien Broken Scales in an attempt to slay him before nearly doing so, only to be stopped when it was revealed Qupien Broken Scales was actually being controlled by the Nameless One through vile dark magic. It is unknown how but by either taming or companionship, Avenel managed to befriend the Dragon and make it his personal mount. Some years following this final battle, Avenel and Qupien were never seen again.
=== Danaus ===
Known as "Onyx Grail Knight of Vauvre", Danaus was a Grail Knight of unknown origin and one whom spook and fought in silence whom appeared during the reign of the traitor High King, Heinrich II and slew the traitor High King in single combat during the ending stages of the same crusade made in the High King's name. Following the traitor High King's death, Danaus was selected by Lendira herself to succeed Heinrich II as High King of Leatannia however Danaus refused such an honour, breaking his silence for the first and only time to give what would later be called one of Laetannia's greatest enigmas in it's history.
"Such an honor to picked by my Goddess and Creator to be the one, true ruler of my homeland.....yet I cannot.....I walk a different path from the rest of my brothers and sisters......I must walk down this dark path alone, such darkness does not allow me to hold the crown nor will I corrupt such a position with said darkness. What I must do and commit myself too requires me to walk in the darkness alone....It may result in my death but death is nothing compared to the salvation that awaits me at the end."
After Danaus had spoken his words, the Onyx Grail Knight seemingly disappeared as quick as he came after he left Villede 'la desse. To this day, no one knows the truth or why Danaus spoke such words or lived the way he did however many believe Danaus was the brother of Heinrich II and was made into a Vyreadra himself, seeing it as the ultimate shame and dishonor while others believe he had done something else in his life to bring shame to himself and the title of Grail Knight. To this day, Danaus has been the only Grail Knight to decline the title of High King.
=== Asterion ===
known as "Saint Asterion", "Asterion the Godslayer" and as "Asterion, The Abyss Walker" was a Legendary Grail Knight whom met a heartbroken end. This heroic Grail Knight was known to have first appeared during the Storm of Darkness where he ventured forth into battle by himself with the legendary blade, Chrysaur and slew countless Vyreadra as well as a number of Greater Deadra. His martial prowers became so renown, Asterion was considered a Godslayer after he slew the lesser Dark Lords, Redraphus and Lirsas in single combat. Acquiring their power for his own, Asterion became a planewalker, able to pass through dimensions and was said to even be able to pass through time through some means. Asterion continued to appear countless times after the first Storm of Darkness such as the The Aklator Crusades and even the The Second Storm of Darkness. Asterion met his end when he voluntarily choose to sacrifice himself after he had learned the seals to the portals of Oblivion were weakening to where sometime in the near future, the Deadra would be able to invade Athrunial once more. To halt their advance, it was said Asterion ventured forth into the realms of Oblivion alone and slew as many Deadra as he could, slaying many Greater Deadra and Arch Deadra in his way until his fabled battle with the Arch Deadra, Glaia. During this final battle, after a long and bloody battle, Asterion now mortally wounded and his sword, the Chrysaur now shattered, he was left with no other choice but to give in to Redraphus and Lirsas darkness. Such a power corrupted his body and soul but not his mind., Granted the full power of two Dark Lords, with the last of his sanity, Asterion slew Glaia in single combat before he presumable died from his mortal wounds or had committed suicide to prevent himself from being used by the Dark Lords.
=== Orderic ===
Known by many names such as "Orderic the Great" and as "Orderic the Uniter" was the first Grail Knight of Athrunial after the passing of the Nameless One and was the first High King of Laetannia. Unlike his successors that would come after him, Orderic was not a Laetannian or a High Imperial, in fact Orderic was a Thrymiran or a regular Imperial whom had gained Lendira's favor during the closing days of the Dark Ages and was made into a Grail Knight. In the most ancient of texts, it was said Orderic was a member of the dying knight Order of Riyuthaa of the then, the destroyed Holy Ruvelia Empire whom were absorbed into the united mortal forces during the closing days of the Dark Ages to combat the Deadra. Orderic's early life is completely unknown, having been lost to time however after the Riythaa Knights were absorbed into the united mortal forces, Orderic quickly became famed for his feats in battle after he slew the Wyvern, Yugnandi nearly single handily. Such a feat made him a Commander of his own force and with it, became a famed Commander as well, winning many battles for the mortal forces until the battle of Aldheria. On the eve of the battle, Orderic's most trusted friend and adviser, Eohric had sided with the Deadra after he had gave into temptations of power and allowed himself to be corrupted. Once this occurred, Eohric willing told the Deadra of Orderic's battle plans. allowing them to outmaneuver Orderic's forces from escaping or allow them to be reinforced as well as cutting off any supply lines they had. 
Orderic had not discovered Eohric's treachery until it was too late however Orderic refused to abandon the elven city and it's people or leave his troops to their certain death to save his own life despite the fact he fully knew he would die. As dawn broke and the Deadra were within sight of the elven city, Orderic stood at the walls, eagerly waiting for the battle to begin when, out of the heavens, came an Aeadra of a white cloak and godly beauty. Appearing before Orderic, Lendira offered him her chalice of blood and told him to drink from it If he firmly believed it was his duty to save Athrunial from the Deadra. Orderic hesitated for a moment but once Orderic stood forward and drank the blood of the Goddess of Prophecy, his body was granted unearthly strength and purity where the light flowed effortlessly through his body. Knowing the Deadra would be at the city gates at any moment, Lendira gifted Orderic the legendary sword, Chrsaur to use against the Deadra but warned him to only use it's power for the most purest of intent before she seemingly vanished from his sight. Blessed by the heavens and wielding Chrsaur, Orderic was able to inspire the men and women under his command to such great feats of battle, they managed to save the elven city and slay the Dark Lord, Susheir in battle at the cost of Orderic's army being wiped out to the last man with Orderic himself being mortally wounded himself. Although Orderic survived the battle with a few others, Orderic chose to gave up his position in the mortal forces in order to fulfill his role as a Champion of Lendira and as a Grail Knight. In the final years of the Dark Ages, Orderic ventured forth across Arthunial and saved any he could, battling the Deadra whenever he could with his companions. During the final battle of the Dark Ages to seal the Deadra back into the realms of Oblivion once more, Orderic and his companions battled alongside Sigismund the Valiant and his Rominian army and aided them greatly in forcing the Dark Lord, Valaso to flee back into the realms of Oblivion.
Following some time after the end of the Dark Ages, Lendira had summoned Orderic before her and tasked him with guiding the people of Laetannia under the guidance of the Grail Knights in preparation for the coming darkness that would came again in the future. Without any hesitation, Orderic accepted this role, thus Lendira made her Grail Knight the first High King of Laetannia. Under Orderic's rule, Orderic lead numerous crusades against the Orc tribes within the Bremon forests and after nearly a hundred years in an effort to drive out the beasts, Orderic succeeded finally, allowing Laetannia to expand without consequence. After ten years of the Orc's defeated, Orderic died peacefully while preying in the Grail Cathedral in the capital. His body was laid to rest where he had died but only days after his passing, his body disintegrated into a white light, leaving only his armor behind.
=== Odin ===
known as "Odin the Bold" Was the fabled son of Laetannian's first High King, Orderic and second High King of Laetannia once his father's passing. Although Odin was cherished by his father for holding the same ideals as himself, Odin was simply a young warrior and nothing else at the time of his father's passing and was an inexperienced one at that. When Odin took the throne, it took almost no time to reveal he was a poor ruler to the sole fact he held no experience and along with holding his father's stubbornness, unwilling to listen to his advisers and take their advice. This only became worse when the he Bermon War broke out due to his indecisiveness and inability to control his people, resulting in them expanding into the Wood Elve's land. On the battlefield, due to his inexperience and eagerness to prove himself, Odin became widely known for his impulsiveness and impatience, often taking to the front to lead his men directly in many direct confrontations rather than bidding his team and organizing a strategy, leading to the deaths of many. His own death came during the Battle of Gideon Valley where Odin and his knights seemingly rushed into the valley after he was given intelligence the Wood Elves's Commander made camp in the midst of the valley. Odin being impatience and demanding glory, lead his Knights into the valley, not knowing the intelligence he had received was fake. By the time Odin reached the where the Camp was supposedly, he was instead met by a rather prepared force. While Odin and his Knights seemingly fought this Wood Elves force despite knowing the best option was to retreat, Odin and his force of Knights were caught off when the Wood Elves had surrounded them and had caught them off from retreating. Taking volley fire from the Wood Elves archers in all directions and forced into a melee with their ground forced, Odin and his Knights were put into a battle of attrition until eventually, they were wiped out to the last with Odin himself being crippled by his captures before slowly tortured to death. A few weeks later, Odin's beheaded head was delivered to the Laetannian's as a show of strength. Although his body was never recovered, Odin's head was put to rest in a crypt outside the Grail Cathedral in Villede 'la desse. Despite his short coming as a Knight and as a Ruler, Odin was still considered a true Laetannian, pure of heart and wanting to do his duty. Odin is used widely by Laetannian Knights as an example when one wishes to rush things for great feats.
=== Lavena Cervini ===
Known as "Saint Lavena" was originally one of Orderic's companions who had survived the battle of Aldheria, Lavena Cervini became the first Arch Priestess of Laetannia and Grailism after never waving in her devotion to the Goddess of Prophecy. Many aspects of Lavena's life is not known, it is theorized she was of elven origins due to her usage of advanced magic to heal those in need as well as having a striking appearance of an elven. It was common knowledge that Lavena and Orderic were incredibly close yet it is unknown If Lavena was romantically involved with Orderic which would bring up If Lavena's was Odin's mother. No matter what the truth was, Lavena performed her spiritual duties well through the ages and worked closely with the four kings during her time, Orderic, Odin, Naudin and Tryloc. After her passing of old age, Lavena was put to rest in the Grail Cathedral and was declared a Saint by High King Tryloc of Laetannia.
=== Naudin ===
Known as "Naudin The Preserver", was a Grail Knight and the third High King of Laetannia. Naudin is best remembered for saving Laetannia from complete destruction during The Bermon War where the Wood Elves had thrown Laetannia into chaos after the second High King of Laetannia, Odin had been killed in battle with his beheaded head being delivered to the capital. After a few years of political infighting, the Arch Priestess, Lavena Cervini had crowned the Grail Knight, Naudin as High King of Laetannia and through a number of quick, decisive battles that were won by Laetannia, Naudin was able to drive the Wood Elves out of Laetannia before singing the treaty of Bertelis where Laetannia wouldn't be able to colonize past the Ryreva river in the Bermon Forests but would allow Laetannia to traverse through their lands without consequences as long as they had no I'll intentions. Following these events, Naudin ruled Laetannia for one hundred and thirty years, using his time rebuilding and developing Laetannia into a powerful medieval kingdom. In 5E 300, Laetannia was caught completely off guard when the Vyreadra were able to bypass the mountain fortress city of Rothley through unknown means and laid sieges to the countrysides of Laetannia. Naudin was forced to quickly put together a force of Knights to combat this new threat by drafting many Knights from the Dukedoms however soon after he was able to form a force of Knights to combat this new threat, Naudin's force was completely massacred at the battle of the Crimson mountains where the majority of his force were comprised of young, inexperienced and eager Knights wishing to prove themselves. Breaking rank to charge into the enemy lines in hoping of gaining glory, many of Naudin's Knights died and the ones who followed orders were soon slaughtered as well since Naudin and his force wasn't able to maneuver well in the mountain pass due to the pass being narrow. Due to these actions, Naudin's force of Knights were almost completely destroyed to the last with Naudin himself almost dying in the chaos. Naudin was forced to retreat back into Laetannia and recover as well as begin to strategize his next move while he was forced to watch Laetannia be destroyed from the inside out. The next four years turned into a Guerrilla war for Laetannia as they were forced to perform hit and run tactics to hold off the Vyreadra however this only delayed the inevitable and Terashec. Naudin was forced into a confrontational battle with a Vyreadra or allow the capital to burn. The end result was a long and bloody battle but in the end, High King Naudin was slain in battle against by the Vyreadra Lord, Hendina.
=== Tyrloc ===
Was a Grail Knight and was the fourth High King of Laetannia after High King Naudin had been slain in battle at the battle of Terashec. High King Tyrloc was responsible for saving Laetannia from complete destruction from the Vyreadra Invasion at the cost of Villede 'la desse, Lajaumont and Coussia being sacrificed for the necessary time he needed to organize a new military force High King Naudin had gotten killed at the battle of Terashec High King Tyrloc had led a number of successful campaigns against the Vyreadra using unconventional warfare by Laetannian standards where High King Tyrloc employed large amounts of longbowmen and elven mages from Renneon to whither down the enemy from elevated and secluded positions before using his reserves of footmen to finish the job. High King Tyrloc's method of warfare made him unpopular amongst the Knights for Laetannia since they viewed him often relying too much on dishonorable methods to win the battles instead relying on the Knights of Laetannia for honorable combat however they could not argue with his results which arguably won the war for Laetannia after many years of fighting defensive battles. Despite High King Tyrloc saving Laetannia from complete destruction, he was widely overshadowed by the Laetannian General and later Grail Knight, Asselyna whom was widely popular and cherished by Laetannia as it's true savior and Hero, so much so many Laetannian's wished to the High King to vacate his position for Asselyna however luckily for him, Asselyna refused. High King Tyrloc's later rule after the Storm of Darkness was minor at best and was noted for doing nearly nothing during The War of the Embers.
=== Crispian ===
Known as "Crispian the Crusader" and "Lionhardt" was a Grail Knight and was fifth High King of Laetannia after the demise of High King Tyrloc. High King Crispian was responsible for the Aklator Crusade some thirty years into his rule, where he had begun a sixty three year crusade against the Vyreadra within Aklator in hoping of destroying the Vyreadra once and for all in an effort to save Laetannia and all of Athrunial from the coming darkness that lurked in it's mountains. High King Crispian was also known to have continued many of High King Tyrloc's polices in reconstruction of Laetannia far after his death in an effort to prepare for Laetannia for Crispian's grand crusade the darkness. During the Aklator Crusade, High King Crispian became widely renowned for leading many Laetannian Knights personally into battle and fighting on the front lines, earning him much praise and recognition from his Laetannian brothers and sisters however his this way of life eventually led him to his death some forty seven years later when his force assaulted the Vyreadra capital within Aklator. During the massive siege of the Vyreadra's capital, High King Crispian led a number of Grail Knights into battle a number of times before eventually being forced to do battle with the Vyreadra King and the Supreme Being known simply as the Nameless One when his slumber was disturbed. The result was a short yet fierce battle between two warrior gods however in the end, the High King of Laetannia proved no match for a Supreme Being whom was originally the first Grail Knight. High King Crispian's death forced the Laetannia forces to withdraw to the battle due unrest and confusion as well as the higher hierarchy in shambles.
=== Theudis ===
Known as "Theudis the Vigilant" was the son of High King of Laetannia, Crispian and was the sixth High King of Laetannia after his father had been killed at the Siege of Aklator by the Nameless One. High King Theudis is noted for being the only Laetannian High King in the history of Laetannia to have never achieved the status of becoming a Grail Knight yet was successful at ruling his people and leading the Knights of Leatannia in battle unlike Odin whom was inexperienced and native. Unlike Odin, Theudis had already became a Knight of the realm of Laetannia and had fought numerous battles alongside his father during much of the Aklator Crusade. After the Siege of Aklator had failed with the death of High King, Crispian and the Laetannian forces had managed to fall back to the entry way into the Aklator mountains, Theudis was chosen to lead his people by the remaining nobles of Laetannia after the surviving Grail Knights of the Aklator Crusade could not be found. Shortly afterwards, High King Theudis proved himself to be a capable commander, able to hold off the Vyreadra in Aklator long enough for Laetannia to prepare itself once more for another Vyreadra invasion. Once High King Theudis and his forces were forced to withdraw from Aklator, High King Theudis fought a number of defensive battles within Leatannia and after some years manage to push the Vyreadra back into Aklator. For nearly fifty years, High King Theudis would do battle with the Vyreadra in a war of tug of war where both sides would be able to gain a significant amount of new territory before being pushed back. Such a ever changing war nearly bankrupted Laetannia by the time High King Theudis had been killed in battle, defending Vauvre during his seventy fifth year of ruling. High King Theudis fully knew he had drained Laetannia of most of it's resources by the time he had died however due to his father's wishes and honor, High King Theudis refused to abandon his father's crusade in hoping he could destroy the Vyreadra threat once and for all.
=== Marianne Leoncoeur ===
Known widely renowned as "Saint Marianne" , "Second Lady of Cinder" , "Queen of Sorrows" and as "Marianne the Flash" for her god like reflexes and agility, even for the abilities of a Grail Knight, Marianne Leoncoeur was a Countess of  Avondance and descendant of the Legendary female Grail Knight, Asselyna. Marianne Leoncoeur herself became a legendary female Grail Knight during the Aklator Crusade where it was said, that with her god like reflexes and agility, she was able to effortlessly slay countless Vyreadra Lords on the battlefield and even able to defeat a Arch Deadra in single combat. It was believed Lendira through some means, granted Marianne the Aeadra's ability "Awakening" to use in battle which made her far more ferocious on the battlefield. Following High King Theudis death at the Battle of Vauvre, Marianne was quickly crowned as the first High Queen of Laetannia. Upon becoming High Queen, she wished to end the Aklator Crusade in hoping of rebuilding Laetannia after decades of intense fighting however due to the opinion of the nobles and their knights wanting to fulfill High King Crispian's and High King Theudis wishes, she was forced to continue the Aklator Crusade for the first ten years of her rule for the sake of honor. Eventually High Queen Marianne was able to abandon the Aklator crusade when the entire Laetannian force under the command of Knight Commander and Duke Lothar Kalb of Boutancourt was completely decimated at the battle of Seyning by the Nameless One himself. After this massacre, the Vyreadra seemingly disappeared back into Aklator, leaving Laetannia safe at the moment. High Queen Marianne spent the next seventy years rebuilding and redeveloping Laetannia until the  Arisen Crisis broke out in 5E 700 where the undead all over Laetannia began to awaken from their slumber in Laetannia's many cemeteries. Before any force could be gathered, within days of the undead awakening, entire villages and towns were destroyed or outright consumed with the majority of Leatannian's cities caught under siege by the hordes of the undead. Due to communications being near non existent, almost every city of Laetannia was forced to fight for it's own survival alone due to travel being near impossible. With constant death, lack of food and proper hygiene, it seemed Laetannia was destined to fail until five mysterious Grail Knights from Rothley accompanied by a force of Holy Knights from Thrymir managed to force back the undead hordes in 5E 702 long enough for Laetannia and the Kingdoms of Thrymir to make an official military alliance. For a year under the leadership of High Queen Marianne, Laetannia was able to push the undead hordes nearly out of Leatannia when the Canine Red Pox disease breaks out nearly a year later. Unable to stop the spread of the disease since it transmitted with a bite from the undead and Laetannia lacked adequate amounts of alchemist to research and make a cure, within two years of the outbreak, the disease killed nearly seventy five percent of the populace of Leatannia.
It was only after this horrendous loss of life did the Kingdoms of Thrymir finally mobilize their entire armies to combat the undead legions within Laetannia to destroy the possible threat to their counties. This resulted in a twenty four year crusade before the armies of Thrymir managed to finally destroy the undead legions and save Laetannia from complete destruction. It was due to this foreigner aid that Laetannia was forced into a permanent alliance where Laetannia had to pay reparations to the Kingdoms of Thrymir for the loss of life they had lost during their crusade to save Laetannia from complete destruction. Having no choice, High Queen Marianne was forced to sign the papers to form the alliance with the Thrymir Kingdoms. The remaining people and especially the Knights of Laetannia were outraged they were forced to submit themselves to a united collection of weak medieval kingdoms in Thrymir and resented the treaty greatly since Leatannians firmly believed they were above such things since they were created to be Athrunial's protectors and spent every day fighting the evil's of the world so that the rest of Athrunial wouldn't be consumed by the darkness. Many foreigner powers criticized High Queen Marianne for allowing her country to being nearly destroyed and forced to do the bidding of the Kingdoms of Laetannia however to the Laetannians and her Knights, they did not hold High Queen Marianne at fault as she had performed her duties the best she could with the circumstances that had occurred. Despite her people believing in their High Queen, High Queen Marianne herself firmly believed she was guilt and blamed herself for allowing the events that nearly destroyed her country to occur as well as believing she had failed in her duties as a Grail Knight. Having believed she had failed her duties and believed she was irredeemable, High Queen Marianne abandoned the throne of Laetannia only after a year of signing the treaty with the Kingdoms of Thrymir and traveled to the Temple of the Sacred Flame, there she voluntarily became a Lady of Cinders in an effort to repent for her failures.
=== Mathilde ===
Was the Arch Priestess of the Grail during High Queen Marianne's rule. Once High Queen Marianne abandoned her throne to repent, Mathilde took control of Laetannia for nearly a century and rebuilt Laetannia from the ground up until the son of a fallen Grail Knight by the name of Heinrich II was crowed High King of Leatannia.
=== Heinrich II ===
Known as the "Black Knight of Vauvre" and as the "Arch Traitor of Leatannia", Heinrich the Second was the Duke of Vauvre and was the seventh High King of Laetannia ninety eight years after High Queen Marianne had voluntarily became a Lady of Cinder and after Laetannia's society had recovered. Heinrich II ruled Laetannia for nearly forty one years, ruling with an Iron fist and became renowned for his ruthless tactics as well as almost starting with a war with the Kingdoms of Thrymir since Heinrich II had always had a severe hatred for Thrymir from an early age where his father, Heinrich I whom was a Grail Knight, was assassinated by Thrymir assassins. when it was discovered by the Arch Priestess, Alicia Ehrhard in 5E 870 whom discovered the High King in the middle of the catacombs under the castle drenched in blood, feasting on the countless corpses that were littered about, resulted in a climatic battle between a Laetannian Vyreadra Knight doing battle with an Arch Priestess of the Grail. After a long battle, the former High King managed to escape relatively unscathed. Immediately, the Arch Priestess calls for a crusade to kill Heinrich II and leads the Laetannian forces to combat the former High King. It took nearly a decade to kill the former High King since he had fled to his come city, Vauvre and took control, once he had corruped all it's nobles and Knights in power. The next ten years became a slow battle of attrition as the forces of Laetannia had troubling eliminating Laetannians empowered by the power of the Vyreadra. The Forces under Arch Priestess, Alicia Ehrhard suffered horrendous losses on countless battlefields until the Grail Knight named Danaus appeared as one of Lendira's Champions and slew the former High King in single combat, ending the Heinrich Crusade. 
=== Alicia Ehrhard ===
Known as "The First inquisitor of Darkness" was the Arch Priestess of the Grail whom was Mathilde's successor. Alice Ehrhard became renowned for discovering the High King of Leatannia, Heinrich II as a Vyreadra and and ruthlessly hunted down the former High King after taking control of Laetannia and beginning a crusade to hunt down the former High King. 
=== Lisseut ===
Known as "The Lioness of Leatannia" and as "Saint Lisseut", Lisseut was a Grail Knight whom became the second High Queen of Laetannia five years after the Heinrich Crusade had ended. High Queen Lisseut rules Leatannia for one hundred and fifteen years, using her time as High Queen, she issued many minor crusades to destroy any remaining Vyreadra holdings left over from Heinrich's time than proceeded to develop Laetannia once more until 5E 1000 when the Kingdoms of Thrymir were invaded by the Vyreadra, beginning the Second Storm of Darkness. Due to Laetannia's fate being saved by the Kingdoms of Thrymir nearly three hundred years ago and forced into a permanent alliance, High Queen Lisseut had no choice but mobilize her forces for the coming war to save Thrymir. For nearly a hundred and twenty years, High Queen Lisseut lead her Knights into many battles, eventually earning her the title of "Lioness" for her ferocity in battle and commitment in protecting Laetannia and it's people from harm. In 5E 1120, High Queen Lisseut became ill after a long march from Laetannia. She was taken back to  Villede 'la desse and after being bed stricken for a week, she passed away.
=== Guilliman ===
Known as "The Protector of the Lioness" was the Duke of Etreux and was a fabled Grail Knight whom served alongside High Queen Lisseut as her bodyguard and as her closest adviser for nearly a century. After High Queen Lisseut had died of illness, Guiliman was immediately selected to become the eighth High King of Leatannia whom was honoured to receive such an honour. For forty years, High King Guiliman lead a brilliant crusade into Thrymir and almost single handily saved Thrymir from complete destruction with his Knightly alone and even managed to push the Vyreadra back into the mountains of Aklator for a number a years until 5E 1160 where he ambushed in his camp and was mortally wounded and poisoned by a Vyreadra Lord whom would later be known as Kaltil. Despite the best efforts of his Elven healer, the poison within Guiliman's body was not treatable and within days of being poisoned. When Guiliman was near death, he used the last of his strength to make Nilus, Abbergenien, a young Grail Knight whom he had taken under his wing as High King of Laetannia before passing away
=== Nilus Abbergenien ===
Widely known as "The Hero of Laetannia", "The Grail Knight of Destiny", "The Prodigy Child" , "Nilus the Honoured" and as the "The Sword Saint of Laetannia", is the Duke of Cailouet and is one of the most favored of Lendira's Champions as well as the ninth and current High King of Laetannia whom became legendary for almost driving the Vyreadra back into Aklator and bringing them to near extinction, only to be stopped by the Nameless One whom battled Nilus Abbergenien in a titanic battle. In the end, Nilus Abbergenien was defeated however the Nameless One was so impressed by the Laetannian King's bravery and skill in battle that he decided to spare the High King's life and gave the young High King his word he would stop his Vyreadra from invading the mortal world so that he could prepare for what would come next. After this battle, Nilus Abbergenien was widely considered to be the Greatest Grail Knight of his age and one of the most powerful Grail Knights to have ever existed, since the First Grail Knight whom battled and defeated Necris.
Nilus Abbergenien origins and early life are unknown however it was widely believed by the former High King, Guiliman that he is the direct descendant of Saint Tryanna's Champion, Athruis Abbergenien. The earliest reports of Nilus Abbergenien existence only goes back to 5E 1120 where the young man had defeated and killed the corrupted Duke Gisbert Schaumer of Caillouet in an honour duel whom gained the attention of the now High King, Guiliman. Impressed by his skill in battle and his commitment to the ideals of the Grail, The High King took Nilus as his personal squire and took it upon himself to train this young man into the ultimate warrior of the Gods whom he believed would take his place one day. Nilus traveled everywhere with Guiliman for countless years, learning everything he could from mastering all forms of battle to strategy and politics and even fought alongside him in countless battles during the Second Storm of Darkness. Their relationship became so close, Guiliman even adopted Nilus as his son on the day he was finally Knighted as a Laetannian Knight of the Realm. His time as a Knight of the realm is considered legendary with him taking taking on the mantle of a Laetannian Champion, a Laetannian Knight whom sacrifices everything and enters the thickest of battles to challenge the most skilled enemies to a duel to the death. Nilus quickly became famous throughout Laetannia and Thrymir as he charged head first into the thickest of battles and slew every Vyreadra Lord in single combat in an honor duel to the death. It was said his second feat at the time was during The Battle of Aldeburgh where the Laetannian army was destroyed and the Thrymir army fled, Nilus and a few others including Alessia stayed behind to defend the city. Despite the overwhelming odds, Nilus and Alessia knew they were going to die but they refused to allow the people of Aldeburgh to die while they were still able. Lendira was so touched by their determination and conviction that she appeared before the two and blessed the two in their time of need, making Nilus into a Grail Knight of legend and turning Alessia into her Arch Priestess. With the powers of the gods at their disposal, Nilus charged into the Vyreadra horde, ripping his way into the heart of the horde to do battle with the Arch Deadra, Wraxerrith while Alessia used the power of the Aeadra to defend the city and to support Nilus in any way she could while he battled Wraxerrith in single combat. In the end, Nilus killed Wraxerrith after a long and bloody battle before he died of his mortal wounds and Alessia choose to sacrifice herself when she used all her power to keep the Vyreadra at bay.
Once More, Lendira was so touch by their sacrifice and conviction, she could not permit them to join her yet in Aelthuan so yet again, she appeared before their lifeless bodies with her Valkyrie's and revived the two with her holy magic before telling them they are the ones whom will lead Laetannia when the portals of Oblivion open once more. When Nilus and Alessia return back to Laetannia and their exploits became known, the two became heroes of legend and were honoured by the High King of Laetannia for their commitment to their duty and to their Goddess. Following this, Nilus accomplished by Alessia continued to travel with the High King of Laetannia until his unfortunate death in 5E 1160. Almost immediately after Guiliman's death, Nilus was nominated by all the Dukes of Laetannia to be the next High King of Laetannia with even Lendira herself appearing before all her Knights to confirm Nilus would become the next High King of Laetannia. With Lendira's blessing and nominated by all the Dukes of Laetannia, Nilus Abbergenien became the ninth High King of Laetannia with Alessia Vesalius as his Arch Priestess. Now High King, Nilus spent the next ten years leading his Knights into battle whom were blessed by Lendira's and with Alessia's magic, Nilus and his blessed Knights were able to smash through the Vyreadra and push them back into Aklator, almost to the point of extinction until Nilus grabbed the attention of the Nameless One. During the final battle, the two met on the battlefield and after what could only be described as a battle amongst gods, Nilus laid defeated however the Nameless was so impressed with Nilus bravery and skill in arms, he decided to not only allow him to live but healed as well. The Supreme Being told the High King of Laetannia he would end the Second Storm of Darkness if he agreed to leave Aklator immediately. The High King agreed and thus the Second Storm of Darkness ended at the cost of the Vyreadra surviving but Laetannia and Thrymir survived and were now safe. 
High King Nilus and Alessia with their blessed Knights returned to Laetannia and began redeveloping and preparing Laetannia once more for when the day the seals that hold the Gates of Oblivion close will fail and the Deadra will be free. 
=== Alessia Vesalius ===
Known as "Saint Alessia" , "The Divine Enchantress" and unofficially as the "Queen of Laetannia" and as the "Grail Queen", is the current Arch Priestess of the Grail and is the close companion of High King, Nilus of Laetannia. Due to her time with Nilus, Alessia Vesalius is considered the most favored and most powerful Arch Priestess of the Grail despite her young age. Along with High King Nilus, she became renowned as one of Lendira's most favored servants after the battle of Aldeburgh within Thrymir whom displayed incredible determination and conviction so much so, even for a Leatannia, both her and Nilus were blessed by their Goddess and were told they were to lead their people in preparation for when the Deadra invade once more. She continued to fight alongside Nilus and her people for many years until the Second Storm of Darkness ended when the High King battled the Nameless Once. Since the end of the Second Storm of Darkness, she has lead Laetannia as it's Arch Priestess as she prepares Laetannia for the coming darkness as well. It is theorized and widely believed by many Laetannian's that Alessia and Nilus are married or at least lovers however both have denied such claims, saying their duty to Laetannia and to their Goddess is far more important than any emotions they have for each other.
