Lord Shaaladel
Lord Shaaladel, a middle-aged elf who rose from being a military commander to the nation’s ruler during the ascension of the Acheron Empire. Shahalesti was in danger of being conquered like their other neighbors, and Shaaladel’s aggressive displays of force — including the conquest and destruction of two nearby elvish lands that were hostile to him — are credited as major reasons why Acheron has so far not looked north for conquest.
During Acheron's annexation of its neighbors, Lord Shaaladel lent aid, and he and his trusted aides participated personally in battles at Emperor Coaltongue's side. A canny, charismatic commander, Shaaladel is respected even by the Acheron army, and many expected him to succeed after Coaltongue’s death. Rumors say that the elvish lord had been quite displeased that the Old Dragon was refusing to die of old age.
Ruler of the Shining Land of Shahalesti, Lord Shaaladel stands tall and stern, his blonde hair is long and frames his slender face and high cheeks, the marks of his elvish heritage. His dress lives up to his shining title, with stark goldand bright silver adorning his mithral breastplate, crisp cloak, and hauberk. He wears at his hip a seemingly mundane longsword, and on his left arm a unique bladed shield that covers his forearm, then bends over his hand like the claw of an eagle. Pride gleams in his grey eyes.
