Biography
During his youth, he spent lots of time studying and training as his father destined him to be the next Grand Prince. In his early twenties, he decided to leave Fenn and his people however to pursue a life as a mercenary. Not much is known of his early youth other than fighting in any wars/skirmishes he could find. He was reported as a mercenary under a human Lord, he was then later on found guarding royal houses in the human lands. During all that fighting, he discovered his passion for smithing and that's what drove him to join the dwarves of Holm for a year to learn more. During the Coalition War of 1660, he was in the front lines until he was wounded and left for dead.
The Lands of Axios Not much is known for what happened after but he eventually re-appeared in Fenn after 20 years as he heard that his people were getting attacked by the Renatian forces. On one of the many patrols around Fenn, he spotted some warhorses and with the help of the Bilok’Thuln, more and more warhorses were added to the Ivae’Fenn, making their military one of the best of Axios. After helping his people fight off the raiders, his father named him the Crown Prince for his valour in combat and also gave him the Grand Chancellor position within the Council, to serve as the right hand of the Grand Prince. After many reforms, Fenn finally thrived to the point of being the main powerhouse of the Elves.
The lands of Atlas In Atlas, with the help of his people, he founded the city of Tahu’Lareh (High Rock in Elven) and then constructed a few additional forts to protect the Fennic people from attacks. As time passed, he met the love of his life, Alenia Atmorice; on the 12th of The First Seed, 1710, him and Alenia began their forever bonding. Later on he then helped establish the EU (Elven Union) in an attempt to stop the advancing Renatian humans from attacking another elven settlement. After a long ceasefire between the Renatians and the EU, he was one of the first to join the Marnan Rebellion (later known as the Holy Orenian Empire) and thus he was rewarded with the title “First Snow Elf of the Empire” and the Imperial Marshal rank. He was one of the Commanders during the fight of Upper Rodenburg where the Orenian and Allied forces won a massive victory against the Renatian forces. During the Siege of Helena, he was one of the trebuchet crew members. On the 8th of The First Seed, 1720 - the coronation of a new grand prince took place; Aelthos Tundrak III, took the place of his father, Aelthir Tundrak II, after he had passed shortly after the birth of his daughter, Lydienne Tundrak. During those times, he signed a full alliance with the Kingdom of Urguan, honouring the old times. He would then do massive reforms in order for Fenn to thrive. After reforming the Grand Council of Fenn, he focused on reforming the Ivae’Fenn. On 1727, The Grand Prince Aelthos ordered the Ivae’Fenn to march on the Spider Elves caves as they were constantly attacking the Princedom. The Ivae’Fenn under Marshal Aesilonth then approached the borders of the Cultists but realised that they were in Llyrian territory. After a few denouncements and missives, the council of Llyria accepted the terms but then decided not to give the land and instead offer some minas. While Llyria was doing all that, early on 1728, Aelthos signed a defensive pact with the leader of the High Elves. Aelthos then rallied all his troops and summoned his allies. The war against Llyria started on 1728, with Fenn, Urguan, Haelunor, Aegrothond and some other minor factions marching together to purge the Llyrian dark mages and cultists. After two years of constant raids on Llyrian lands, the Llyrian council decided to simply pay 40,000 minas as tribute for the hostilities to cease. Aelthos, not wanting to continue as the Llyrian put minimun to non ressistance, accepted the tribute and marched home on 1730. On 1733, Aelthos and the High Chieftain of Irrinor Lyemar started the contruction of the railway between Irrinor and Fenn. A year later, on 1734, the railway was finished. While celebrating the new railway, Aelthos falls sick and passes his crown to his son Aldred(1735). He remained in the Citadel, battling the sickness however, with the loss of his wife Alenia, he becomes depressed until Aroiia Elena Drakon and him develop feelings for each other. On 1741, he assumes the role of Grand Prince once more until 1742.
