Elamon (ELL-uh-monn)
Archpater of the Seven Elamon Mundros
Born to desperate poverty, Elamon never thought himself destined for anything of consequence. He was raised in the faith of Erastil, but showed little interest in religious matters as a youth. By his own wry admission, the moment he discovered girls he was far more keen to learn about eartly goddesses, rather than study them in books.
Elamon's mother had become seamstress for a wealthy noblewoman, and as a boon for her fashion sense offered young Elamon tuition for school. While reluctant at first, he discovered a passion for learning and a gift for languages. He excelled in his studies before settling on a career in the clergy.
Given his upbringing, his easy way with people, and his compassion for the disadvantaged, Elamon found himself rising through the ranks surprisingly quickly. His ovatus status lasted only four years. His chaplaincy less than ten. He became the youngest provost in recent history, serving eleven years in Tamrivena before becoming Episcopus of XXX. When Archmater Lucilla Varyx died, Elamon was on the short list of replacements. Being the most apolitical candidate secured him the post.
