Elbreech Antrati

== Overview ==
Elbreech Antrati is the first retinue of Valentine Marudas, along with being one of the first citizens of Crielia. Elbreech's escape from Albrack was facilitated by Valentine's regularly opened magical gates, which transported him to the Crielian shoreline in Lazzeatir. 
Elbreech seldom, if ever, shows his face as he always wears his mask and armor during any occasion. 
== Character History ==
=== Salvation from Albrack ===
Darkness, pitch black, starry void.
He trudged along the desert of gray, barely able to even make out his hands in front of him. Is this the afterlife? He thought to himself.
Ahead of him loomed a spire of screeching flesh, its form stuck out like a sour thumb against the vastness of the dark desert. The moving tower seemed to have roots which anchor it into the ground, each trunk pulsating in some weird rhythm. Many sets of sapphire eyes gazed out from the soaring pillar, each scanning the landscape like searchlights, surveying its surroundings as if it was the overseer of this horrid realm. Multiple protrusions of limbs, ranging from tentacles the size of dark-oak trees to arms grasping for the air reached out from the main mass at seemingly random points.
Any normal person would be petrified at this sight, but perhaps due to some unknown nature of this world, he felt compelled to carry forward.
Then suddenly, light.
It was as if someone had shone a spotlight on him. Panic and fear raced past his thoughts; had one of the eyes seen him? No, the light that was blinding him was pure white, and left him feeling comforted and tranquil. He could feel his body getting lighter by the second, he could feel the light carrying him up, away from the endless abyss that was the desert.
=== Awakening ===
He woke up to the night sky, the ocean breeze, the baaing of sheep. His head throbbed with pain, and as he lifts up his hand, he froze. What are these creatures, what are these sensations, what is this world? New sights, smells, and sounds bombarded his senses. The salty breeze of the ocean wind, the chirping of cicadas, the grainy sand and clay at his fingertips. These all seemed so unreal yet here he is, experiencing them firsthand.
A figure of a person stood next to a house and a small farm in the distance, their shadows casted by a tiny campfire. It waved at Elbreech and called out in a friendly voice.
"You there! Welcome to Canalos!"
=== Canalos ===
Fortunately, there was a settlement near where he had awoken. It was simply a humble hut along with a small farm, and in that hut was a man by the name of Valentine Marudas.
Valentine was very accepting of Elbreech. They quicky became close allies through shared hardships, stories, and experiences. Valentine gave Elbreech a roof and bedding, while Elbreech provided labor in mining and building. Over time, Elbreech became a close aide to Valentine, returning the favor by pledging their loyalty to this new nation that he had formed: Crielia.
Elbreech was responsible for many advancements in the nation. He dug quarries and mineshafts; hebuilt houses and shops; he also gathered various resources to farm such as sugarcane, cactus, and netherwart.
