Kaelan Maeyr'onn, from plains now distant and afar, sends multiple letters back to the mali'thill of Haelun'or. "Karin'ayla dear and esteemed citizenry of our beloved state. The baseless, false accusations made against myself having employed that of a mali'ker assassin to dispatch the realm of this mali'ata are false. Mali'ata will always deliver in factual, false accusations against those who no longer reside. It is, as I have coined many a time before... 'a get out of trouble free' card. Any who know me, know I do not employ the use of assassins. Rather, I employ the use of agents who deliver useful information to the state. Assassination is below me, were an individual hideous to the state, I would simply have them exiled... and not without good reason either. Edgars Ana'sul. Despite my grievances and lack of belief in his ability to lead el'Sillumir in the past, is more than capable of leading this Talonn'ii which has attempted to slander my name on more than one occasion. Your ever loving and faithful servant of lari'hei. Kaelan Maeyr'onn."

Welcome to Haelun’or The National Emblem of Haelun’or _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Karin’ayla lliran! Let this guide serve as your one-stop-shop for both current and new players, or for anyone interested in learning about the High Elves of Haelun’or. From ancient traditions and culture, to the political makeup of modern Haelun’or, to fashion and food preferences of the Mali’thill, this will hopefully provide you with all you need to know to start your Roleplaying adventure in the Silver State! CONTENTS I. Introduction What is Haelun’or? The Origins of the Mali’aheral II. Culture and Society Values The Archetypes Politics Courtship Religion Fashion Colour Architecture Gold and Insults III. Getting Started Getting into the City IV. Epilogue ________________________________________________________________________ Introduction What is Haelun’or? The Silver State of Haelun’or, is the home of the High Elves, more specifically, the Mali’thill, which are a distinct ‘kind’ of High Elf - More on this in a moment! Haelun’or is one of the oldest and most unique nations and communities on Lord of the Craft, coming into existence in January of 2012. In Haelun’or, the sky's the limit in terms of what you can do and achieve, whether you want to join the Sillumiran - Haelun’ors Military Force, or whether you want to invent machines of Metal and Magic in our Laboratories, become a Socialite participating in ‘High’ Society, or become a respected Philosopher, the choice is yours. What fundamentally separates Haelun’or from other Nations, is its strict adherence to ancient tradition and culture, living a particular lifestyle guided by the teachings of Larihei Lohmanih, the first High Elf - the founder of Haelun’or, and this driving Philosophy, is known as Maehr’sae Hiylun’ehya ________________________________________________________________________ The Origins of the Mali’aheral “For all I’ve done for our people, you would censor me, stifle me. Put a gag on my achievements. I ask for no praise, no reward, and no titles. I seek only to better my people, yet you insist on holding us back. For how long, a thousand years, ten thousand?” These are the words spoken by Larihei, the most senior advisor to Malin, the King of the Elves. Displeased with the stagnation that had overtaken Old Malinor, Larihei sought better for her people, and so within the confines of her Great Library, she along with her inner circle, worked on great inventions and the finest of scientific endeavours were undertaken here. Furthermore, they began dabbling with the Void, and it is within this institution that the first voidal magic users emerged. Evocationists, Alterationists, Translocationists, Enchanters - all came to be within this place of learning, making the daily lives of all, that much more enhanced and easier. However, there was one who was not so satisfied with the achievements of Larihei and her people - Malin. He ordered Larihei to cease her experimentation, fearing the potential of the void but Larihei defied this order, moving now, into deep caverns to continue her work, and it is within these caverns, that Larihei discovered what would become the genesis of her people - the Golden Pools. Drawn to the pools by some unknown force, Larihei began to regularly bathe in them, as did her followers. Over decades, their skin grew lighter in complexion, and their hair lightened to softer shades. As time passed, these paler elves were noticeably taller and thinner than their brothers and sisters, and their personalities seemed to change. These pale elves lost interest in the prevailing customs of Old Malinor - Dancing, Singing, Feasting, and took on a keener interest in scholarly arts, of learning, debate, magic. These fair elves became colder, more self-assured, confident, somewhat arrogant even, in their newfound beliefs and ways. These elves would become the first of the Mali’aheral - ‘Blessed Elves’, in Mali’san. ________________________________________________________________________ Culture and Society Values The Mali’thill of Haelun’or, are driven by an ancient creed - the Maehr’sae Hiylun’ehya, which roughly translates from Mali’san - the ancient language of the Elves - to “progress and health” This ideology is the cornerstone of High Elven Society and the phrase itself is taken from old books found within the original College of Haelun’or. Progress (Maehr’sae): This is the belief in constantly striving for the honing of the intellect, by rational debate, endeavours of scientific and magical natures, and the cultivation of the arts et cetera. A good and fulfilling life is one ripe with knowledge and learning. Given this drive for the development of the intellect, the Mali’aheral regularly enjoy debate and engage in rhetoric, hosting grand symposiums where many topics are touched upon and discussed. Health (Hiylun): The other half of this creed relates to keeping one's bloodline pure and untainted, as well as the maintenance of the physical body. The heightened sense of importance regarding physical purity, has led the Mali’aheral to value greatly, keeping their bodies pristine and couth. As such, they are against any form of self-harm or mutilation, including tattooing and piercings or any kind of physical body modifications which inflict harm. Societal Values 1) High Elves tend to dislike other races. Depending on your personal views, this ranges from outright hatred, to mild disdain. Though a disliking is encouraged, and this is due to the superiority which Mali’aheral proclaim to have over other races. 2)High Elves, given their dislike for other races, and their superiority complex, naturally have a disliking and distrust for strangers. Getting into the city will be difficult, you will be quizzed and subjected to trials and tasks. To simply allow a stranger into the city on a whim, will cause upset and is highly frowned upon. 3) High Elves, given their affinity for intellectualism, dislike emotional thinking. They are creatures of logic and reason, and strongly favour this over emotion. As such, public displays of emotion are to be avoided, unless you wish to incur the grimaces of your fellow Mali’thill! (Read on to learn about High Elven Courting!) 4) High Elves do not weigh titles very heavily, and tend to dislike the use of them, save for Government positions and the title of Malaurir, which is afforded to current (though simply ‘Maheral’ is greatly preferred), retired or deceased Maheralan. The Archetypes When I write "archetypes" I refer to common kinds of personalities within the high elf world. For the sake of argument (and because, heaven knows, this guide isn't long enough already) we shall refer to very prominent forms of the high elven mindset. The Puritan ~Kalenz~ "Your existence revolts me, filth. Nothing a sharp knife and a healthy dose of acid cannot fix." -Racist -Arrogant -Supremacist The Magician ~Iatrilemar Elervathar~ “We are beacons in the abyssal dark." -Tolerant -Patient -Perfectionist The Artisian ~Evelon Telperion~ “A mali’thill should dress their best, groom oneself and take much care lest they bring disgrace to the blessed elves of Silver.” -Expressive -Imaginative -Innovative The Diraan ~Thoras Elyrion~ “Those who enforce the law must obey the law.” -Courageous -Loyal -Unyielding The Traditionalist ~Seth Calith~ "We have survived genocide supported by the entire realm in the past. The current situation is hardly the equivalent, the light of our flames will brighten. Maehr'sae hiylun'ehya." -Compassionate -Humble -Advocate The Reformist ~Alaion Miravaris~ "..Upon the grand game, the move is understood; a sacrifice made to attempt to calm the waters, unity at the cost of righteousness and dignity. The preservation and safety of the Silver People is paramount, and diplomacy with neighbours is not unwanted; it is encouraged, in fact." -Placidity -Logic/Rationality -Altruism The Impure (Impure) ~saiko the dediest warior~ "good waters not good when nourishment best come from excellent blood" -Impure -Impure -Impure Remember, these are just examples!. If you want to mix and match (or create some of your own) then you're completely at liberty to! Don't feel pressured to make one exactly like those listed. Courtship High elves seek out a potential partner for their wit, heritage, scholarly works and intellect rather than their dashingly good looks. An individuals intellect and talents often supersede an individuals looks. Once a High elf has identified a potential partner they must then prove their worth, more often than not. This requires the individual to prove their intellect, whether it be through debate, philosophical discussion or art. Individuals who come from great bloodlines may also use their families feats as a way to garner favour from a potential partner. High elves do not believe in public affection, or announce their undying love to a potential partner. Rather, to obtain courtship often means doing so discreetly. Whether it be done through love letters, often in the form of poems or through overheard gossip regarding the potential partners fond thoughts. Once they are content that their potential partner shares the same feelings that they do. They may pluck up the courage to confess to their potential partner that they are seeking to court them. Being a species that does not put stock within religion, high elves often wed in wide open spaces of some significance, typically a library or great hall. Weddings, being significant to the prosperity of hiylun, usually draws a large crowd, with almost all of the cities citizenry within attendance. Individuals from the outside are often sent an invitation, which will grant them access to the city for the duration of the ceremony and ball afterward. Upon a lectern, a respected and prominent Mali'aheral citizen, who knows the individuals to be wed address the crowd with a speech, wherein he would praise the purity of the united couple. The position of "speaker" in such an event is considered a great honour. After the speech is given, the speaker will remain silent so that the populace may speak out against any impurities or foulness surrounding the marriage. It is considered improper of the speaker to mention such a silence, as it would be rude for the couple to have it addressed directly. The speaker, after a period of silence then declares the couple ‘wed’ or ‘joined’. The couple will then receive gifts or words of admiration towards their union. Religion Most citizenry residing within the Silver State of Haelun’or practice Alatrism, which is the recognition of the existence of at least one deity, albeit no worshipping occurs. This is due to their belief of placing faith in an invisible deity to be illogical, mostly due to the fact an invisible deity cannot have a motive or intention. For a high elf to believe in something which may or may not be true is counter productive to progress, as there is no way to confirm the belief of an invisible deity. However, the extreme adherence High Elves have to their attaining of knowledge and wisdom is of no less intensity than the zeal of those that excessively practice religion. Fashion A high elf wears clothing pertaining to their personality. Within their culture, this is done through the colours that their clothes represent. It is common for high elves to opt for long robes and dresses instead of their wood elven counterparts - usually skin baring. A high elf whose clothing represents their personality is considered to be very fashionable. Items such as non-invasive jewellery and cosmetics that compliment said symbolism are encouraged. Purple: Symbolises magic, life (Tanya), and the unknown. Red: Symbolises might, protection (Evarir), and pride. Yellow/Gold: Symbolises wealth, gold (Acal), and prosperity (can also be attributed to curses, but this will be discussed further on). Green: Symbolises harmony, diplomacy, foresight, beauty (Leyun), and affection. Brown: Symbolises art, nurturing, the land (Nor), and festivities. Blue: Symbolises logic, science (Indor), and knowledge, and curiosity. Silver/White: Symbolises purity (Thilln), and the maehr'sae hiylun'ehya. Black: Symbolises guidance, contemplation, and the Maheral (King/Emperor). Pink: Symbolises guidance, purity (Thilln), and protection (Evarir) Architecture High elven architects used to build for beauty rather than practicality. In modern times however, both features are taken into consideration. The architects, or ‘artists’ as many have come to see them, favour towers and buildings that take advantage of vertical space, for efficiency's sake. Thilln’cihi or ‘High Elf cities’ are often found upon a mountain top, due to their strategic advantage. High elves, given their often remote locations, tend to cultivate gardens and flora, in the forms of public parks. Almost always, will one find at least one statue dedicated to Larihei. Gold and Insults A high elf being given gold by another high elf is regarded as an insult of sorts. Due to its affiliation with the elven word for ‘curse’ or ‘acal’. The high elf who is presented with a portion of gold is being questioned on their purity, as well as their ancestry. It is considered the most ultimate of high-elven insults, to insult an individual confirmed to be pure, it is considered a great grievance and a shame upon the high elf presenting it. It is the intent behind giving gold that makes it an insult, not the act of giving gold itself. It is an abstract conception. Some mali’aheral will not even realise they are being insulted. Furthermore, the gravity of the insult is directed at a singular individual's purity and respect within the high elven society. A known thief will not injure the sensibilities of the Maheral with his gift of gold. Sometimes, should aurum weapons be needed for the sake of killing ghosts and such, a high elf might ‘leave’ such instruments to be claimed by another. Or such items are only lent out (for eternity with no intentions of getting it back), to make sure no gold was gifted. This is usually only done in cases of immediate need of such material. There is also a misconception among the unenlightened that the practice of gifting gold is a claim that one’s family did not bathe enough in the golden pools, such is simply misunderstood elven duality. ________________________________________________________________________ Getting Started Getting into the city Due to the high elves general dislike for other races, getting into the city as an outsider tends to be quite difficult, even for those of high elven blood. This is due to their suspicion of outsiders at their gates, who more often than not do not meet their high standards. More often than not, for non high elves, they don’t want you there and will judge those who seek entry closely. This may involve the gatekeeper probing your character with multiple questions, this is designed to test your patience, guice and understanding of their culture. Some key things to bear in mind when trying to gain entry… 1) Look the part - High elves are often devoid of piercings and tattoos, before entering. Cover up and remove your piercings! 2) Be pleasant and polite, answering all questions as efficiently and clearly as possible 3) As a high elf, hold yourself in a higher standard than typically expected with the other races. Some key things to bear in mind if you do not wish to enter… 1) Boast about drinking blood - Foul acts and deeds will almost instantly result in your being denied entry to the city 2) Look abnormal - red eyes, abnormally coloured hair ie: black, pink, purple, green, blue etc or revealing clothes as a high elf will often instantly label you as being mali’ata (impure elf). 3) Be extremely arrogant and rude - individuals simply demanding entry or acting like a menace will be turned away. If you are a new high elf, looking to enter the high elf city, you may be asked the following… “thilln ito nae'leh - Are you pure?” ((often asked of new High Elves. the adequate response would be 'thilln ito kae'leh')) If you are a new high elf, looking to enter the high elf city and are wondering how to best conduct yourself, bear in mind the following…. 1) A pure high elf tends to have lighter tones to their hair--often taking the shade of platinum, grey, blond, or white. 2) Eye-colours tend to be within a green-blue spectrum, but in rare cases they may take on shades of purple. In even rarer cases, gold. 3) Ears are often longer than those of dark elves and wood elves. 4) High elves are almost always devoid of piercings or tattoos. 5) Pure high elves never drink blood. Probably.

None of this would have been possible without the numerous players within our community. Our style of play may not adhere to the way that you wish to play your high elf, to reiterate, this is a rough guide on how the average high elf player conducts themselves. The main thing is to have fun with your character, do what suits you best. However, if you lack the inspiration, or just want a general idea of what high elves are about, refer back to this. We have books, tea, wine, science, and magic! Have fun, sneaky HE's-to-be! Much love, The Haelun’or Community.

TO CHALLENGE; EL'SOHAER Penned 17th Snows Maiden, 97th of the second age. Preamble Blessed Citizenry of elcihi’thilln, I write to you today to discuss the succession of Sohaership. I admit, the matter has been long overlooked. However, the moment has come for us to look forward rather than back. This past century, our people have been tried and tested. Yet, my fellow Okariran have one absolute factor that breeds prosperity: competence. I announce my intention to run for Sohaership. The Pledge I. The Silver News - The introduction of an elven fortnight news letter to include tidings within elcihi’thilln, as well as updates from each Okariran regarding their office, such as employment opportunities, existing projects as well as future projects. The idea of this particular news paper is to show the mali’thill what it is their particular position is currently doing. The Silver Calendar will be incorporated into this Article, to better inform our mali’thill and lliran of upcoming festivities and events within el’cihi. as well as keeping absent mali’thill otherwise indisposed up to date with recent events. II. El’Sillumir - The office of Okarir’tir will fall under direct control of the Sohaer. With this, I intend to absorb the responsibilities until a more suitable option becomes available. Rest assured, there are many prospects existing within the ranks who are perfectly capable of undertake this particular office. It is important however, that the individual who takes charge fully understands the responsibilities and duties that come with it. III. Disbanding of the Medi’ir - For too long have the Medi’ir neglected in their duties to act as diplomats to foreign powers, the rank will be abolished. With all matters of diplomacy falling upon the Okariran. Should foreign powers wish to enter negotiations with ourselves and visa versa, the issue will be brought forth at a council meeting, in which a vote will be held. IV. To flourish trade - Upon our settlement to the Southern lands, our markets appear to lack in trade. With the assistance of the Okarir’nor, I intend to open trade with foreign nations, individuals of a foreign nation seeking trade with ourselves will be granted a ‘pass’, which grants them free entry to restock their stalls. Items of trade must offer some form of advantage to elcihi’thilln. Whether they be books or artefacts. V. Improving productivity - It is evident that as of late, there is little productivity occurring. However, with the assistance of the new Okarir’maehr, once they are announced. We will establish an academy in which citizens of the Silver State and their allies may enrol within classes of their chosen subject, whether it be alchemy, evocation, smithing, philosophy or even bestiary. Progress comes in many forms. I will not overbear you with false promises and complicated statements. A path and course must be set, one with realistic aims and goals that can be completed in order to move forward, together. Upon completion of the above, the next course will be set. Signed, Kaelan Maeyr'onn

"Maehr'sae Hiylun'ehya!" exclaimed Kaelan Maeyr'onn, upon finalising the pact with the Kingdom of Balian!

"ElOkarir'hiylun was appointed as there was no challenger, being that Lunxueri An'asul vanished shortly after nominating himself." Responded to the individuals within the tavern who enquired "The upcoming debate by Valazaer Calith and Alune An'asul should be quite the striking revelation to assure Laurir Usamea that democracy is very much... alive."

A CALL TO TRIAL; EDGARS AN'ASUL Dated 6th of the First Seed, 96th year of the second age. Edgars Ana'sul is summoned to trial for breaching Silver Law, a trial long overdue and thought upon. Due to throwing high density boomsteel within the air of elcihi'thilln during a public gathering. Furthermore, the injury of two blessed citizens as well as the Maheral during a state expedition. As a former Okariran and diraan of the Silver State, such affairs cannot be allowed to go unanswered. For one to put the populace at risk is a grievous act in its own, for one to put the Maherals life at risk is simple folly. The charge is as follows. ARTICLE 1. The Blessed Residents of The Silver State of Haelun’or will not tolerate the ineffable natures of violent beasts Signed, Kaelan Maeyr'onn Okarir'tir

"I endorse this" stated Kaelan Maeyr'onn, upon listening to the same speech Valazaer have given many years ago.

THE SILLUMIRAN THE PROTECTORS OF THE MOTHERLAND Written by Okarir’tir Kaelan Aldin Issued and adopted 5th of The Amber Cold, Year 91 of the Second Age ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION The serious responsibility of the Motherland; her vast woodlands and towering mountain chains, the heart found in Lareh’thilln and the potent Provinces, falls on your shoulders, Sillumir. The philosophy, Larihei’s ancient creeds of maehr’sae hiylun’ehya, guide us onwards, and the safekeeping of these values are imperative for the continuance of State and People. It is the Republic’s Silver Host- the Sillumiran, which make the Eternal Library retain her Eternal nature, and ensure our relevance and permanence in Almaris. Elsillumiran are the army in times of conflict, and the custodians of peace. Since the days of Larihei, these ‘thill have made the daunting decision to burden their lives with the blood they spill in battle. Though with newfound pride and confidence, with the last remnants of the kinslayers swept away, the Sillumiran march now straight in back, shoulder to shoulder. The Sillumiran Oath Larihei, kae'len cruan sulier, ay'kae vallumer'ehya Larihei, Behold my pain, and weep for me Elihnsil, Elberr, kina'ehya, The Spear, The Bow, and death, laean kae wynne myumiereyae. these bring me no joy. ay'nae'leh sirame k' taliiyhe, ay'elcihil k' cruare for your honor I bleed, for the city I suffer il'iylkarim, mirueln thill'ehya ito kae'leh With this day, I am of silver and red. THE COMMANDING STRUCTURE ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ”You hallowed harbingers of harmony.. THE SOHAER serves as Supreme Commander, directing the Sillumiran efforts during both war and peace, battle and home. None may trump their order. THE OKARIR’TIR, appointed by the Blessed Republic to organise and mobilise the Sillumiran in their place. The Okarir’tir promotes and demotes Sillumiran between ranks, as well as observing their training and issuing out assignments ensuring that there is never a moment of chaos or anarchy in the organisation. THE TILRUIR’TIRAN, are responsible for the Sillumir and the Auxillery. They serve as commanding officers and work with their units on a daily basis to complete missions and tasks granted to them by the Okarir’tir. In the absence of the others above, the Tilruir’tiran lead the Sillumiran in battle. THE DIVKINAELAN are officers of the Sillumiran, ensuring that the plans of high command are achieved. They lead training sessions and play part in guiding new Sillumiran to their gradings. ..offer me your sword as Larihei offered us her guidance.” THE UNITS OF THE SILLUMIRAN “Enact the Silver Law with an Iron Fist, our foes forever kept at bay by the authority of the Blessed Republic... THE VIHAI – The Elite Unit. Protectors of Lareh’thilln and the vast woodlands and plains at her feet, the Vihai take upon themselves all more adverse missions required to keep order in our dominion. Similar to the hunter, or ranger, the Vihai move in smaller groups, on lighter feet, armed with the sharpest weapons available to the Mali’thill. As their name suggests, the victims of the extermination will hear no more than a whisper. THE SILLUMIR – Soldiers of the Silver State, the initiate and trained, enacting the Silver Law and orders of high command to defend the High Elven people and her Motherland. The Sillumir is to serve an active period of four years prior to being eligible for promotion to an elite unit of their choice. The Sillumiran may, in addition to their common duties, seek a specialisation. The current options are WALEHIR, the medics of the force, and LOGISTICIAN, who tend to the horses for the cavalry and other equipment the guard may require. THE AUXILIARY – The loyal lesser descendents of the Motherland may serve in the Sillumiran as an auxiliary, aiding the guardforce in upholding Law and meeting victory in battle. Following long enough service, through blessing of the Okarir’tir, the Auxiliary may ascend to becoming a full-fledged Sillumir. ..The Silver Inquisition will continue.” ENLISTMENT Contact Okarir’tir Kaelan Aldin [[Knox213#7718]] for questions, or pin a response to this missive.

This news comes as a shock to all, as the individual in question regularly frequented our city and betrayed our trust. The reason and motive of what drove this individual to commit such a heinous crime are yet to be determined - yet, rest assured. The Sillumiran are investigating tirelessly in obtaining information about the events that transpired, urging all to avoid contact with the individual who attempted the act and implore any who have sighted him to come forth with information that may lead to his arrest and prosecution. I invite Mister Hræthån to defend his actions - if he feels the need to do so. As to better understand the events which had transpired and grant the mali’aheral twenty-four elven hours to return to elcihi’thilln to face judgment for his actions. If my terms are not met, he will be met with steel. Furthermore, to all gate-keepers and Sillumiran, the individual - from this moment forth is banished, with the expectation that any upstanding mali’thill with the power to do so apprehend the individual. For those unsure what this ‘aheral looks like, please see my diagram and description below. Golden eyes, long white hair, black on the left of the tunic, red on the right of the tunic. Grey headband across the forehead with gold trimmings along the outside of the tunic, black trousers. VERY tall elf, right arm is a construct arm. Signed by, The Okarir’tirs Office
