**High King Elandoris Tavore**, known as Elandoris the Great, or the Warrior King of Suldura, was the first king of the unified Suldura. He is remembered as one of history's greatest generals, best known for working together with his brother-in-law Cassius Falkenried to conquer the human kingdoms.

## Early Life

Elandoris was born in a war camp in 400 AC when his father, King Keldoran Tavore, rode to the aid of King Aurelius Falkenried in the First Borderlands War against the armies of Arzak-Nath, and Queen Petra Tavore accompanied her husband as the administrator and chief quartermaster of his war camp.

## Sulduran Unification

*See the main article on Sulduran Unification for more information.*

In 418 AC, King Keldoran died suddenly, leaving Elandoris to take the throne of the Tavore Kingdom. The young king, however, set his sights higher. In 421 AC, King Cassius Falkenried, Aurelius' son, was wed to Elandoris' elder sister Mylaina, sealing the alliance that Keldoran and Aurelius had begun to forge. Shortly after the wedding, Elandoris and his brother-in-law began plans to reunify the human kingdoms under the name *Suldura*, a bastardization of the original *Silduras*. Cassius agreed to give up his crown and become the Margrave of Falkenried in exchange for an expansion of the Falkenried borders.

In 422 AC, Elandoris and Cassius began their campaign of conquest. Together, the two conquered the Blackmont, Hale, Seaspire, and Letharr Kingdoms over the next four years. Three of the vanquished kings surrendered and were allowed to remain in power as Graves beneath Elandoris. King Daemon Letharr, however, was unwilling to surrender his crown, and so was executed and his daughter Meshayle married to General Danvar Malkin.

## Later Campaigns

For a time there was peace in the newly forged Suldura. In 429 AC, King Elandoris returned to war, engaging in a six-year campaign that would come to be known as the Crimson Campaign. Fighting once more alongside his friend and brother the Margrave of Falkenried, Elandoris led his armies in a series of small-scale conflicts across Suldura, putting down minor rebellions, wiping out marauding bands of mercenaries-turned-bandits left over from the War of Unification, and instilling order in the new nation. In 443 the two rode side by side for a third and final time, joining forces again against Arzak-Nath in the two-year Second Borderlands War.

The last of the human kingdoms to join Suldura was brought in peacefully, in the 451 AC Corlester Pact. While Elandoris was still king at the time, the pact is generally credited to his son, Maxidan, who arranged a marriage between King Morden Corlester and Maxidan's sister, Roselle, convincing Morden to join the kingdom as the Grave of Corlester in exchange.

## Marriage and Family

In 427 AC, Elandoris married Xandria Westerreach, and they had three children: Maxidan in 433 AC, Roselle in 436 AC, and Fredrin in 437 AC. In 465 AC, Elandoris died at the age of 65. Three of his seven grandchildren were born before his death: Sadeas and Petra Corlester in 452 AC and Artorin Tavore in 458 AC.
