Kairn Calithil, also called "The Bronze Tyrant" or "The Usurper", was a prominent Wood Elf politician, general, and philosopher. He rose to prominence as a Prince during the Bronze Rebellion in the waning years of Axios, and became instrumental in the Dominion of Malin's reconstruction during Atlas. He served as the General (Elven: Annilir) of the Wood Elven militaries the Elberun'cinhir and the Order of Virarim, and was a decorated Veteran of the Order of Sirame.
History
Kairn Calithil was born in a village within Varendoz, Aeldin in 1425. When his mother died in 1442 amidst the Elven pogroms that characterized the era, he crossed the sea as an indentured servant and emigrated to Athera. A Heartlander named John Anders purchased his debt, and Kairn was put to work as a ledger keeper in Oren during the final days of the Carrion Dynasty. He tended to John Anders' banking, records, and estate until the aging merchant's death in 1450. In the merchant's will, the remainder of Kairn's debt was annulled so he was emancipated from his job.
Kairn took up work as a mercenary during the Schism War as a soldier of the Canonist League. Eventually, after an incident where a Canonist priest refused to baptize him on account of his Elven heritage, he journeyed to Laureh'lin to discover more about his ethnic background.
