## Biography

### Early Life

Ljósálfar was born over one-thousand and two-hundred years ago during the times of the ancient Ayleid Empire in the distant continent of Heimalandi within the bloodline of the Empire's royal family, raised to become the next rule of the Empire. As he was raised in the art of arcane combat and martial arts, he lead the Forráðamaður, the guardians of the Ayleids against hostile actions from beasts or neighbouring small countries that also shared the continent of Heimalandi.

Ljósálfar then began to find suitable candiates for his Forráðamaður, otherwise translated as "Guardians" to help him defend and support the Empire's defenses and to protect the citizens of the Empire.

Before the War for the One began, Ljósálfar was tasked to investigate suspecious activity towards the south of the continent, towards the more dried areas of Heimalandi as citizens reported mysterious creatures began to appear all over the region. Leading an contigent of elite units, he along with his unit journeyed to the south towards the port, where they spoken with the local guard on the sightings. The guard described strange winged beings of black and green in the sky, circling the area before heading towards the westernmost, towards the island of Avalon. Shocked at the revelation, he lead his unit towards Avalon where they were able to catch up to the strange creature, one one of the long-distance fighters in his unit fired an magical arcane blast at it and it fell from the sky. Information revealed it as an demonic hybrid between an local species and an unnatural existence, believed to be aforementioned demon. As one of the Guardians inspected further, an cry was heard, which an nearby town was being attacked by deformed beasts and wildlife. He then quickly ordered his Guardians to town and fight back against the beasts, and to rescue as many citizens as possible. Asa they defended, the local guard at the port, arrived, lending assistence to him and killing all of the corrupted beasts.

Ljósálfar thanked the local guard as they heard the loud cry also and wanted to lend assistence. He'd would have the guard post rangers across the town's borders and lend aid to the people as he ventured towards Avalon, fearing for the worse to the Well of Eternity. As he arrived to Avalon, he saw it was being attacked by the same corrupted beasts, and ordered the Guardians to help defend the Well of Eternity. Upon arrival, the sentry captain informed Ljósálfar on the situation and is awaiting further orders. He'd ordered the captain to defend the exterior along with the Guardians as he checked on the Well. Entering inside, he was reliefed to see the Well untouched and well fortified and defended by the best of the Ayleid's magic casters and warriors. Soon the beasts were slain, he stayed at the Well for the next three months to be certain no abrasive attack occured.

However at some point, an invasion of an hostile nation declared war on the Ayleids and every country, showing shared powers of the Demon World and the beginnings of the War for the One. He'd lead the Forráðamaður throughout the conflict alongside other military Ayleid units against their demonic-empowered invaders, that was revealed the true goal was the Well of Eternity. Some of tghe Ayleids however were swayed by the demonic power and joined forces with the demons, gaining their power and breaching the capital's defenses. Ljósálfar desperately defended the Eternal Well from demonic corrupted but was futile upon realizing it has been corrupted due to one of the councilers being the true culprit behind the war, as well the ones that revealed sensitive information the enemy. With the Well corrupted, it began to cause unprecendented natural disasters to occur, forcing the remaining Ayleids off the continent upon an supoervolacano erupting, terroforming the land.

Having escaped their home continent that was terrformed into an barren, heat-filled and demonically radiated lanscape, Ljósálfar soon became the new leader of the remaining Ayleids as they traveled across unknown oceans into unknown shores to find a new place to call home. Eventually encountering an distant cousins of their brethren of elves, they decided to merge with these new elven cousins and together created the Elf Country after having taken it from beastmen, who also took it from humans and had them enslaved. Both surviving humans and the elves elected Ljósálfar as their first king, who lead them for 1000 years before deciding to give the reigns to his brother. However his brother wished for Ljósálfar to have an special title, being granted the title of Taliodor'rei of the Elf Country, "High Lord of the elves" and became the commander-in-chief of the country's main branch of the military, as well as advisor. He'd be the central advisor and opposition towards the Eight Greed Kings after their emergence, not allowing the kings to enter their territory and defended it from them til their infighting and destruction. He also fought and became onen of the original Thirteen Heroes against the Evil Deities, praised for his prowess by the Nine Goddesses as he fought alongside them against the Deities.

### Tirisfal

After the fall of the Eight Greed Kings, Ljósálfar has taken over one of the Kings fortresses on the land known as Tirisfal which appeared to been one of their "vaults" containing YGGDRASIL items as well as resources and wealth. Trisifal then became the Elf Country's capital city and was restructured for use as the capital. During his restricting of the fortress, he also also formed the Tirisgarde, the city's guard aimed in the defense from external and internal threats lead by him.

### War against the Theocracy

Ljósálfar in the current era of the New World leads the military as the esteemed Taliodor'rei and was often tasked in the respecting of neighbouring nations, despite the Theocracy's prejudices against most demihuman andd entire non-human races. However that was until he was informed after a month of negotiations with the Theocracy what the current Elf King, who he already held in low regard and planned to educate him on proper leadership, had kidnapped the ace of the Black Scripture, which caused all forms of peace to collapse instantly. As Ljósálfar spoke with the Elf King on his abrasive and insulting actions taken against the Theocracy and only found out the King even raped the ace against her will, the Elf Country's capital was attack by the Theocracy's Black Scripture, igniting an battle. Ljósálfar understood their reasons but will not allow this attack to go unpunished and began to defend himself. He was confronted by the Scripture's most powerful magic caster, Merlinus Ambrosius and engaged Ljósálfar in an battle. Understanding Merlin as an formidable foe, utilized Felo'melorn against the Archmage. After 10 minutes of clashing, Merlin ceased his attack as their ace was rescued, and Merlin explained that the Theocracy has officially declared war on the Elf Country before teleporting himself and the Scripture from the country.

After the ensuring battle, Ljósálfar then called out on the Elf King and would be wise to heed his warnings on the Theocracy's strength and might and if anything happens, is on the king's head. However in his arrogance, the Elf King argued against his ancestral founding king, and stated that the Theocracy is vain as well as Ljósálfar himself. If Ljósálfar interferred with the Elf King, he would be declared traitor and be executed. Having nothing to say to the abhorrent behaviour of his brother's descendent, Ljósálfar left the royal hall and back to his quarters where he spoken with his few Ayleid remaining.

The war continued however when the Theocracy began to enter the Great Forest of Evasha. Not allowing this to happen, he commanded the Elven Ranger Corps, the Elven Assassin Order along with the Tamer Beast Corps to drive the Theocracy out of the forest using guerrilla warfare tactics, assassination techniques and the use of the many dangerous monsters to tame their home country. However he began to question the tactics as they had a Archmage with immense power and not use him to invade, leading to the theory something may had happened to the elderly Archmage.

## Powers & Abilities

Ljósálfar is seen as one of the world's most powerful leading authority and among the world's top 10 most powerful individuals, ranked as one of the top 5 among four others excluding the Five Northern Kings and the Apostles. He has demonstrated vast capability well beyond most beings out there, including being able to utilize 7th-tier magic thanks to his arcane sword, the Felo'melorn which originated as an *Artifact*-class Item from YGGDRASIL. As the founding king as well one of the original members of the Ayleids, he can combat almost everything in the world, tackling the most powerful demihumans to undead such as true vampires.

Despite his advanced age being well over 1200 years ago, Ljósálfar is still physically strong individual which allows him to physically overcome any obstacles in his way, his reflexes and agile form allows him to get close to perform close-range arcane or fire-based spells, or use an melee weapon. His has been noted to have an title of "Sword Saint" (if he has the job class is into question), making him an well known swordsman in the New World.

Another to note is the fact for his Talent that came to be known as **Equality** (平等, *Byōdō*?); this talent is believed to be the source of his power, where his physical conditioning equalizes to the foe he's combating, making it an equal battleground. The talent is only activated on the enemy that strikes first, as such can become a double-edged sword. For starters, there is an strong true vampire and a goblin minion, however if the goblin strikes first, his power diminishes to the level of that goblin and this gets outmatched by the true vampire unless he kills the goblin, allowing him to equalize with the vampire.

Ljósálfar as an 1200-year old elven Alyied, he is also vastly intelligent and knowledgeable on the world as well as its long history, from the era of the Great Gods, the Greed Kings and as well being one of the only living core member of the Thirteen Heroes, to which he almost has no equal to level with his knowledge of the world. His an tactical leader and military general and can create fine tuned judgements on conditions on any given situation, thus making him one of the Elf Kingdom's better diplomats. His relationships to the other nations is that reverence and thus he has an "special case" scenario to speak with any nation he requires, even to the Slane Theocracy.
