History: Elros was born in 1430, in the middle of Anthos. He lived an ordinary life until 1475, when his parents died during the battles with Halenor and the beginning of Laurelin. He joined the Ivory Order, which was Laurelin's military. At this time, when he was only 45. He spent his days guarding the gate and city, scouting the dreaded undead fortress of Embermore, and training. His first real battle occurred when the Ivory Order attacked Embermore after one of the townspeople was kidnapped. They attacked and defeated the undead and the cultists, secured the imprisoned man, and went back to the city. A month or two after this he killed a litch by shooting it with a aurum arrow, an achievement he still looks upon with pride. Shortly afterwords the war with the High Elves begins. He helped with the raids and sieges on Halenor. He remained a guard in Ceruin after the war. At first he hated the idea of the subjection of his home to the Valah of Oren, but he warmed up to the idea a bit when he found how much freedom they got, though he still prefers the old alliance with the dwarves to the current arrangement. He made the transition to Valior somewhat hardly, as he loved Athera.

Then, his life went sour as, after 40 years of service, El'Annil Kairn kicked Elros out of the Sirame for questioning his actions in wanting to kick a man who had done no wrong out of the city and when he was being coarse to a new recruit. He now searches for a new purpose and feels as if 40 years of his life have been wasted. After this event he became reclusive for many years.

However, in Axios he has resurfaced several times, rejoining the guards, where he still is now.

Personality: He is fiercely loyal to his country and people. He is witty, intelligent, and likes to debate, especially on politics. He is not very nice to purist high elves, as he still begrudges them from the war. To friends, colleagues, and citizens he if fairly kind, respectful, trusting, and attentive. Despite this, he is introverted and tends to not star conversations and rather wait for others to start them with him.

Religion: Aspectisim

Alignment: Chaotic Good - He respects the law of his people, however even if he receives orders from a superior he will not break his own moral code, such as if ordered to hurt the not guilty or throw people out for no reason.

Skills: He is good at fighting with the sword and bow. He uses his wits and intelligence to try to see through claims he thinks are untrue, and is fairly good at it. He can guard the gate fairly wisely and impartially. He is diligent and gets the job done. He has a good memory.

Weaknesses: He is sometimes too serious when on the job. When he gets suspicious, unless he gets some proof that your claim is true he will keep on trying to catch you as a liar. He can be taken by surprise if he is distracted with a debate or a call for help. He is stubborn, and impulsive and aggressive to raiders, thieves, and other enemies, even if it would be wiser to fulfill their demands.

Goals: To rise in rank and respect in the guard and defend his city faithfully, get married, and live a long, full life defending his people, and possibly other jobs in the future.
