Enyalios

**Enyalios**, referred to simply by **En** by close friends, was the male Dremirian that once served as the ambassador of Dremirus to the United Cassiopeian Republic. He represented the Dremirian Council, the ruling polity of the Dreamer Worlds during the Era of Diamond Dust. He was good friends with Crest, the Senator of Galatea in the Cassiopeian Senate.

## Biography

### Early Life

In 5900 ASA, Enyalios was born on the planet Dremirus. Eventually, Enyalios took the position of ambassador of his homeworld to the UCR. He had his own personal ambassadorial aide, a Dremirian named Merion.

### Trial of the Dawns

By the year 5957 ASA, an emissary of the Praeliorian Empire named Gris Véridémi made a statement to the Galactic Embassy, denouncing a group of freedom fighters called the Dawns. Véridémi claimed that the Dawns were responsible for a plethora of abhorrent incidents, including the death of the Borealan governor of Aurora, Deckard Stone.

Such claims were enough for many ambassadors in the Galactic Embassy to revoke the citizenship of members of the Dawns. However, as the Dremirian Dawns Annesidora and Moon were already exiled from Dremirus many decades before out of safety, Enyalios considered their exile to be a non-issue.

As the Dawn hearings continued, Ambassador Percival Hayes of Borealis continued to sway the other UCR ambassadors into granting Gris Véridémi, and as a result Praelior, an observer seat in the Galactic Embassy. Such a political decision on Hayes' behalf led to other politicians like Enyalios and his senatorial friend Crest to become suspicious and rather distasteful of Ambassador Hayes.

#### Growing Tensions

As the hearings regarding the Dawns continued, several politicians grew further in disdain towards Ambassador Hayes, who continued to sway the Galactic Embassy into antagonizing the Dawns and rooting for an observer seat for Praelior. Ambassador Enyalios of Dremirus was among the few who grew frustrated with Hayes' tendency to take over the conversation without letting any opposition try to raise an argument for the Dawns. His close friend and colleague, Senator Crest of Galatea, shared his sentiments. The two Dremirian politicians came to believe that no one would be able to get a word in during the hearings, to which Ambassador Apollo Vopordna of Aethra and Senator Jove Scorzalita of Cascade agreed. Ambassador Annuit Makultra of Proximus joined the conversation an added that while everyone could agree on Percival's behavior, it was a matter of whether or not the embassy cared enough to oppose them.

Enyalios lamented that not many cared about the emissary growing the seeds of power within the UCR. Apollo and Jove proposed a plan for Enyalios to speak out against Percival and against the Praeliorian presence in the UCR. Crest approved on the idea, vouching for Enyalios' passionate speeches whenever he felt strongly on a matter. All five politicians agreed on the plan.

#### Speaking Out Against Nonsense

The next hearing, Ambassador Enyalios made a powerful speech denouncing the Praeliorians that same day, and was there to combat Percival's charismatic rebuttal. While Enyalios made numerous points about how the Praeliorian Empire has stifled the prosperity of Dremirus and how they actively and viciously hunted down Dremirian civilians, Percival contineud to press the Dremirian ambassador, citing the Dremirians themselves to be "the architects of their own demise thanks to their inaction and isolationism", as Percival put it. Despite this, Ambassador Enyalios reiterated that UCR intervention was not something to be taken lightly, and since Praelior was seeking an audience in the Galactic Embassy, he believed that intervention would be necessary as to not kill his people further.

Ultimately, while Enyalios made quite a presence and influence over the Embassy, his other senatorial colleagues felt as if Percival speaking would only continue manipulating the other ambassadors into being more accepting of Praeliorian presence in the Embassy. Having been the first time Enyalios spoke out directly against Ambassador Hayes' pro-imperial drivel, many of his colleagues believed he did a rather successful job speaking up against these fears.

Senator Crest, who was viewing the Embassy hearing along with the other UCR senators, was unable to wrap her head around as to why Ambassador Hayes would so vehemently attempt to defeat Enyalios' points. It was at this moment when Senator Scorzalita and Ambassador Vopordna decided to bring Crest and Enyalios into the fold on their private investigation.

#### Learning About the Truth

Ambassador Enyalios and Senator Crest were informed by Ambassador Apollo and Senator Jove about the ongoing investigation on Borealis and Praelior that was being carried out by the Cascadian Quaestorium. Through the investigation, Enyalios and Crest learned that the Borealans and Praeliorians were in fact working together for several goals, with Sentinel Praelior, who was Empress Esper Aznaré, and Sentinel Borealis, who was Lord Danton Stone, working directly with one another.

One of these goals was obvious: gaining an observer seat for the Praeliorian Empire within the Galactic Embassy, so that the Praeliorians could be more entangled into UCR affairs to strengthen their own interests. A considerably lesser goal was to ruin the reputation of the Dawns, who have previously caused much trouble for both Praelior and Borealis. However, the overarching goal of the Praeliorian-Borealan alliance was to further empower them in the ranks of the UCR, as to strengthen their foundations and cement their place in the galaxy as powerful polities that could not be opposed.

## Personality and Traits

Enyalios was a Dremirian man with red-colored skin, sangria-colored eyes, and iridiscent red and violet-colored hair. He often kept a long goatee and matched his overall color palette with equally red and violet clothing.

As a politician, Enyalios pushed hard to keep Dremirian presence in the Galactic Embassy stable, despite the ongoing attacks against Dremirian Worlds by the Praeliorian Empire that have been occurring for centuries. He recognized that UCR intervention with local Dremirian affairs was riddled with many intricacies, and so he believed that Dremirian affairs were best left within the confines of Dremirian borders; a rather isolationist belief shared by many Dremirian politicians. However, this belief was tested when Praelior pushed for an observer seat on the Galactic Embassy, in which Enyalios adamantly opposed such a decision to be made, believing it would only further hurt the Dremirian people. Enyalios cared deeply for the wellbeing of Dremirus and the Dreamer Worlds, and recognized that Dremirian influenced weakened every day during the Era of Diamond Dust.

## Skills and Abilities

As a Dremirian, Enyalios possessed the innate ability to wield powerful, crystal-based magic. However, he preferred to fight with his words rather than by his magic.
