History
The Theodor family have always been on the throne for Keris so there was a lot of pressure on the young Kieran from a young age. To make matters worse the crown fell to him because the rest of his family was murdered during the Age of Dragons by Thordak, Bringer Of Death. He led his people to victory by helping clear the chromatic dragons from Tirra and became the King of Keris. He led his people alone for a few years before he meet his future wife Tana at a party being held for his 25 birthday. They fell in love and brought Sun and Moon elves together, uniting the people under the one banner and bringing the civil war to an end.
Military
They have an army in case of a war, the leader of them is the Lord Commander Lord Almar Elrora who is a Sun Elf.
