Elanz

Princess of Arokath (a.k.a. The Golden Daughter)

You asked me once why I pray over the orcs we kill while out on patrol. You asked me once why I prayed over the man that was executed by the crown for selling Arokath artifacts to the other nations. Some of you even asked me why I pray over the soldiers that come from the Calderian Empire, with blood on their hands, dying in our hospitals. Let me ask you, should I pray for you?

Should I pray for you when an orc spear pierces your heart? Should I pray for you when you lie in your bed after a long and dutiful life? I can tell you that I will. I do not pray for the wicked to be unpunished or for those different than me to be in chains. I pray for the safe guarding of their souls and memories. So that their life may not be forgotten by those they touched.

Whether good or evil, all life and death serves as a lesson to those still living. I ask her to guide them on their journey and to remember the lessons that they have taught so that one day we may learn from them as well.

AND more than half of you can't say anything to me anyway! I have more kills than you on this patrol. It's time to get moving. I fear something is on the horizon. For us and Aroa.

Elanz speaking to her soldiers on a patrol

A fierce warrior might not be the first thought one might have hearing of Elanz. Listening to her speak one can her a calm cadence to her voice. Smooth and comforting. Caring and understanding. She loves her people and treats every commoner and noble alike. A devote follower of the Raven Queen - Greater Deity of Death one might think her a passive diminutive creature. See her one could agree.  That is if you weren't intimidated by her nearly seven foot muscular frame, her monstrous great sword of shining steel, or the fey-like hound always at her side. She is the visual image of a badass warrior maiden. Shining golden scales brilliantly reflect the light around her. Giving an image of statuesque likeness.

Favored daughter of the King she sits on the royal council actively trying to better society for all citizens. That is when she's not leading a group of scouts killing monsters in The Barrier Mountains.
