Appearance : Elias is fairly tall, standing at 6’ 3”, sporting stern but grizzled features. He is of a medium build, weighing 155lbs. The ageing mage is somewhat balding with thin white hair that is neatly combed back along with an equally white beard that he keeps neatly trimmed. Elias’s eyes are a dark violet due to the Rupturers Gleam Witchmark.

Personality : As a hermit, Elias speaks to few people on Faldrass. He hides away on the mountain in order to avoid being targeted by anti-mage oriented individuals and especially Etzori military personnel. Elias was a deserter arcs ago and is deeply concerned that he will be hunted down and punished for his crime. Sephira only knows that her master was once in a mage serving in a military somewhere in Idalos, and that he feels betrayed by the people he once served. His mannerisms can seem stern on the outside but Elias can be quite insightful and kind when he gets to know a person. He can seem a bit paranoid from the perspective of a stranger; avoiding conversation with those he does not feel he can trust.

Recent History: Elias faked his death soon after Sephira's character creation in order to protect her from her father a man known as The Beast. Elias apparently knew that her father was making his way back to Faldrass in order to target him as well as his allies. For months Sephira searched for her mentor after joining the Elements, eventually running into Liam and several dead ends. Eventually the story resolved here: Black Ships Invasion Event when The Beast came to Scalvoris with his forces in order to destabilize the Fracture on Immortal's Tongue and destroy Scalvoris. It was here that Elias revealed himself again and fought off the Beast. Sephira and her team managed to make it to Faldrass before her father could kill her mentor and they and others stopped the invasion. She and Rey'na also faced the Beast and killed him, only shortly before Sephira was told who he was.

Elias has remained in Scalvoris with Baron Smooglenuff ever since along with Sephira's mother. As has Liam as far as I'm aware. They are Sephira's family and a large part of the reason that she is so loyal to Scalvoris and the Elements.

Relationship to Sephira: Elias is Sephira’s teacher and initiator into the disciplines of Rupturing and Attunement. He also has instructed her in the art of swordplay. They met when she was a young teenager on Faldrass and she spent over an arc visiting him before realizing that he was a mage. He was something of a father figure to Sephira
