Cypress Von Boreas

Cypress is noted for being a founder of Xadia, as for being the Diplomat during the Xadian Restoration. He is considered to be the first great Minister of Xadia after the ancient King Amell.
== Early Life ==
Cypress was the son of two nomadic ice elves, named Kisin Boreas and Colel Nelli.  During his early years he traveled with his parents within InTerra Gloria without settling at any point for a long time, it is during this time that his mother told him the legends of a Unified Continent of Xadia, which is rich in magic derived from six primal sources: The Sun, The Moon, The stars, The Earth, The Sky, and the Sea. This gradually became his mission to create a Modern Xadia state.
The Xadian’s would have suffered from different catastrophes in their homeland, which led to the massive expulsion and their near extinction, this is why it was Cypress’s fascination to collect, read and obtain knowledge about their species and the ancient culture that was established in there land. Thanks to his parents, Cypress obtained basic knowledge about aspects of their culture: The introduction to The Church of the 6 Divines, the religion of the Xadian Kingdom, as well as the traditional values that would lead him to value members of his own species.
At the age of seventeen, he had become a reasonably large name in the eyes of politics in the continent. The prime minister at that time was very corrupt and cruel in his rule, sending bandits to nearby villages and forcing them to pay taxes. Cypress was able to round up people to fight off bandits in this nearby village, which unfortunately gave serious injuries leaving many scars to his body till this day. Since then Cypress vowed to rally his people to prevent more Xadians from suffering in a world run by heartless and immoral people.
== The Beginning of It All ==
Cypress spent most of his time exploring the lands of Gloria, seeking as much knowledge about his culture as possible. Little by little he was able to rewrite the Scrolls of Aternum Nivis for the first time in millennia, just as he gained figurines, stories, and anatomical knowledge as he encountered and spoke with more Xadian people.
In his late twenties and early thirties, Cypress settled in what was the first village. During his journey he met Amell, another Xadian who would soon become the righteous king of Xadia. He would meet other Xadians who shared the goal with Cypress to reestablish the Xadian culture in a nation-state. He was never used to being around people, yet the knowledge he carried with him was what made him something of a Xadian prophet, teaching ancient ways that had been forgotten and preparing his people for a triumphant return. Cypress had become a key figure for the cultural survival of the Xadia and thanks to this he became the de facto undisputed leader around the Xadians. 
Before settling down, Cypress traveled with other unspecified Xadians, including his partner and his newborn baby. His baby had been born strong and healthy a few weeks earlier, with bright glowing snow white hair and beautiful emerald green eyes. Tragedy would come back to Cypress life when bandits attacked his camp during the night, resulting in the loss of several things, but most importantly in the abduction of Cypress baby. 
=== Life as Chief of the Xadia ===
His stay within a city would not be that long, as he was forced to leave his small village to ensure the survival of his people. It is here that Cypress observed what it takes to be a leader, dealing with agents external to his culture which he was not familiar with; this would be a drawback for his entire life. However his migration was fruitful, leading his people to the Emirate of Nnix, where his leader Zakarus von Surgen (former king of Xadia) received them with open arms, initiating a period of prosperity for the people of Xadia.
Cypress would lead a second migration to the Xadia homelands in Serrona. Following Amell’s blessing, Cypress along with Amell, and others managed to migrate and find their way to the original lands of the Xadian race. Upon arriving in Serrona they encountered cold snow-covered forests and vast plains, ideal for the Xadian lifestyle. There they founded small villages near the Mountains where they founded the now capital of Xadia:Glacia. Glacia would become a sanctuary for the Xadian people. The story of Amell and Cypress  would reach the ears of other Xadian’s scattered throughout the world, initiating a period of cultural and national reunification bringing them closer than ever.
However, Cypress was concerned about the internal stability of Xadia, until then they had lived under a decaying oligarchy, which dissolved and unwittingly initiated a period of anarchy within Xadia. It would not take long for Amell to centralize power under King; He then established the first after years of running and being the shadow of the great powers, Amell managed to position himself as a power within Serrona thanks to the efforts of Cypress.
Years after the anointing of King Amell his brother Norman died of an untreatable disease which left Amell in a depressed state. Soon after Amell had killed himself forcing Cypress to be king and to take care of his son Nabu everfrost who was soon to be the heir once he became of age. As 14 years pass his Nabu has come of age at 16 and began his rule over Xadia. Now Cypress is his chief minister and aids in his daily duties.
