tanding at 5'11" and weighing roughly 153 lbs, Erenthril sports soft tresses of chocolate brown hair that hints of Nimalni heritage, almond-shaped emerald eyes, a scarlet smile to pace his quick wit and fair-toned skin to even it all out. He has lean, taut muscles from courses in wilderness survival and gallivanting across the empire. One must approach his personality with a degree of warranted caution and a few shots of tequila, as his word of the day is spontaneous and quite frankly not enough to keep up with his unpredictably impulsive personality. Past the mires, murky water, and bog-like jumble of emotions lies a profound intellectual figure, charming, eloquent, and clever beyond all means necessary.
House in Paxia - located in a Northern poorer district of the city. One-room, with small amount of land surrounding it.
Manor in Mystique - "We be possessing this beauty o' a grand house. It be possessing a low stonewall o' stones that were once in the crop areas. The Surrounding lawn holds ten little gardens; The Lawn also has a private pond supplied by a spring. The grand house has a large wooden tower on it that holds water and a tube that guides water coming through a second spring. There is a little entryway in the house. Then a grand ball place, There is a dining place and a kitchen with a walk in larder. There is an area used as a reading place, and There is places to allow three people to be in solitude as well as a little area below the top part o' the grand house. It also has a place to bathe and dispose o' wastes. The wooden tower lets water fall through tubes that go to other areas o' the house. The cost is listed at 20,000 crowns. The place is in excellent condition though it is not planted but should posses a little bit o' perennials that will pop up in the spring. The gardens were used to decorate. I posses a sketch o' the place dated at last dry season."
Cottage in Natura - Located within the Northern Wilderness of Natura, in the 'Meadowweeds' neighborhood, Eren owns a cozy two-room cottage and the surrounding four-acres in all directions, making for a very comfortable, secretive retreat.

Enchantments + Magical Items
Secrets :
Circular Magical Orb - Detonation will can only be used once. And when it is used, the aftermath will be similar to a handfull of atomic bombs going off. It can be activated via the apprentice-level technique OR using the phrase: “Mae undlin.”Passed on to Milo L'Evienne here lol!
Cold Snap Enchanted Diamond - can be used up to three times per brightening and needs a total of 28 candlemarks to recharge before it can be used again. It cannot be used until it is fully charged.
Effects: The spell will immediately produce a blast of intensely cold air, freezing everything within a radius of 100 yards around Erenthril's immediate position in place. If he is not protected from this spell (Immune) he will become frozen as well and probably die. Targets will most likely die due to suffocation and general heart / organ failure.
Elemental Shield Enchanted Diamond - centerpiece of House Mael'tharias signet ring that marks Erenthril as Lord; it can be used up to three times per brightening and needs a total of 28 candlemarks to recharge before it can be used again. It cannot be used until it is fully charged.
Effect: it produces an instant protective barrier around Erenthril (think skin-tight) that renders him immune to Water, Air, Earth, and Fire for a duration of thirty minutes. Each charge protects one person.

Secrets :
Elementalism Erenthril Mael'tharias is an Archmage Elementalist naturally inclined towards the essence of Air. Although not a major advantage, he is slightly more proficient in casting with that element as compared to others. Thus, this will leave him 'average' persay in Fire and Water, with a noticeable difference in casting spells involving the essence of Earth. Just to clarify.
Quiescence - a simple Initiate spell, afflicted upon oneself or another. At higher proficiencies, it can be cast over several persons. In plain terms, the Elementalist alters a cage of Mana, then proceeding to dispell the essence of Air back into the Elemental Plane. Essentially creating a vacuum, the Elementalist then casts the spell within or atop of a person's mouth. Sound does not travel through vacuums, and thus the spell works well to silence annoying passerby.
Construct - An Initiate-tiered spell, by siphoning the essence of Earth and simply altering the unadulterated substance of stone, the Elementalist is capable of constructing objects. This can be expanded at later levels, with the capability of constructing items ranging from stone blocks, to sculptures, to even stone walls with enough proficiency.

Unique Apprentice Spells/Techniques...
Quote:
Elemental Manipulation -- a technique in which the Elementalist, by manipulating elements on the Material Plane using Mana, can slightly decrease the drain on his/her Vis. Instead of siphoning the essences from their respective Planes, the Elementalist can instead draw from their existance within the Material Plane to fuel their spells.
Squall -- a spell imparted to Erenthril by Mistress Aranel Carnesîr of Paxia. Much similar to the Project Element spell, Squall varies in slight differences. Its basis lies in his custom technique, Elemental Manipulation, but can be completed almost as easily by using an Elemental Orb. By manipulating the essence of Air (which...most cases, typicalyl surrounds the caster), the Elementalist can weave the Mana in such a way that he encases himself with the essence through the technique alteration. Within this encasing the Elementalist manipulates the air into a vertical channel of wind, much like a funnel. Further, the Elementalist evokes the wind upwards with such a force to propel his body into the sky.
Sometimes, the spell can be used in conjunction to a Circle of Magic, which allows the Elementalist to gain more control of the direction of the wind by lessening the possibility of it stretching out horizontally. After having been propelled upwards into the sky, the Elementalist can control the flow of the wind with enough efficiency to place him back down upon the ground in any desired location. Though not able to land exactly where he chooses, as he gains proficiency he will have more control over the area in which he lands.
Whirlwind - A mishap brought about in the Ahm'ronasti library, the Elementalist is capable of utilizing the elemental manipulation technique to take control of the existing ara around him, namely in the form of air. With the option of siphoning even more of the essence from its respective plane, the Elementalist further solidifies the spell by utilizing hard air. Unleashing it in a triad of movement about him in an elliptical nature, the solidified air is pushed away from said Elementalist as a means of defense.
Nimbus - The Elementalist is able to alter and manipulate the essence of air enshrouding him into the shape of a small cloud. Combining both the essences of Air and Earth, the Elementalist is thereby creating a stable platform on which to stand, sit, dance, whatever. By manipulating the currents of air about this platform, either in short bursts or however he sees fit, the Elementalist thus controls the movement of his 'nimbus', awarded with having a miniature cloud in which to zoom around in. It should be noted, however, that this spell does not rule out gravity...merely counters it with careful control over wind and air to keep itself afloat. At higher profiencies, the Elementalist can conjure highly charged electrical particles to produce more interesting effects rather than a means for transportation...
Soft Stone - Using an Apprentice's worth of Vis to create an Arcalysis to produce Mana, the Elementalist is capable of altering a stone object's normal properties enough to loosen the vis structure of the object and thus change the matter of the material. Could potentially work on wood as well. Approved by GD Aqua here.
Warp Metal - Much like the Druidism spell Warp Wood, the Elementalist is capable of calling upon the powers of fire and air to smelt targeted piece of metal into a predestined shape. Using fire to melt and air to bellow through sheer force and tension the Elementalist forces the metal to take a certain shape.
Masterpiece: Napalm - Erenthril Mael'tharias's Masterpiece, he is capable of sky-rocketing (quite literally) at extremely fast speeds much like a cruising missile. The means of transportation has three different steps that lead to it's ultimate success:
Alteration - Erenthril alters the weave by creating a shield of pressure and stream of air. The barrier prevents atmospheric pressure from crushing Erenthril's slender physique, and creates a channel of air to waft inwards directly to his mouth and nose, much akin to a breathing mask (of sorts.)
Conjuration - Erenthril proceeds to conjure energy by chanelling from the Plane of Fire, summoning a vast amount of energy to propel his spell. Although this produces a means of deteriorating a portion of his Vis quickly compared to other spells, it is an essential process for creating the explosion of momentum to propel the force forwards.
Abjuration - As the last step, Erenthril quickly abjures the essence of fire into a directable source of current and means of navigating his spell. By directing the flow of energy, he's capable of altering the speed of the spell as well as the direction he travels in.
*Spell (with abjuration) travels him roughly 8 m/s [For all the American blokes: 201 seconds per mile, or 3.35 minutes per mile]. First used in Opulence of Arrogance. *At a Master-tiered spell, with the added technique of evocation, Eren travelled approximately forty feet in three 'heartbeats,' just to give you a rough idea (I'm tired so I'll do the mileage and whatnot later...)
Glass Storm - Using the Apprentice spell 'Sandstorm,' the Elementalist is capable of using a third technique of conjuration to introduce the essence of fire as a modification to the spell, melting the sand into tiny shards of razor sharp glass. Over practice and proficiency, the size and intensity of the storm may increase.
Tsunami - Capable of forming the most majestic of entities through the world's elements, the Elementalist is also capable of forming the most horrifying. By creating a three-step process of alteration, evocation, and one more alteration the Elementalist is capable of producing a lage flow of waves that, with the final alteration, build up into a gigantic tsunami with smashing potential. Quite literally.
Shrapnel - Manipulating a lesser version of the Master Spell 'Crushing Boulder', the Elementalist can either uplift a large portion of already-existing earth or conjure up the essence, manifesting it into a large boulder. Abjuring the rock towards a group of enemies, the Elementalist then with a burst of energy evokes it apart, rending it to shreds as tiny sharp pieces implode outwards and into the environment.
Dissonance - By mirroring some of the other spheres, Elementalism can contrive spells that produce similar effects. Some of the more useful spells, like Mysticism’s ‘Awareness’ can be accomplished to this effect. For this particular spell, the Elementalist creates an aura about himself with the supplied Mana by altering the weave at first. Allowing the aura to expand around him to the desired area of effect, the Elementalist then proceeds to shape the weave with the techniques of abjuration and divination. Although divination is rarely seen in most of the mechanics found within Elementalism, this is one of the few instances where divining the weave can relay the movements shifted through the abjuration back to the caster.
Embezzlement -- One of the finer testaments to his Mastery over Elementalism, Eren duplicates the spell 'Elemental Scion' by creating a talisman tethered to a respective essence plane. Equipping this talisman to an Elemental's shell enables a consistent renewal of the elemental's respective element. With a gateway established between the essence plane and the elemental, the elemental's shell should never fully 'deteriorate' itself to the point of breaking or causing the elemental to be unsummoned.
Transmute - At this level of proficiency, the 'ordinary' Master Elementalist is expected to come up with self-sufficient spells drawing both intrigue and originality (lol.) Through a complicated, exquisite weave of alterations, conjuration, abjuration, and evocation the Elementalist is capable of encasing any part of his body in a shield of pure stone. What's more, not only does this thick layer of rock provide an extra means of physical defense and offense, it can also mend and reproduce enough of the element to replace and mend chips, cracks, or even whole-scale chunks that are destroyed or damaged during the spell's manifestation on the Physical Plane.
Rhapsody – Technically two spells morphed into one, in addition to Dissonance the Elementalist casts in cantrips multiple Elemental Shocks that are released when the strands of the weave encounter living organisms, effectively terminating them or at the very least disabling them for some time.
Essence Portal - The Elementalist is capable of replicating a portal spell by fashioning two Essence Gates. Altering the spell about one's body, the Elementalist abjures a pair of gates at the same time - one within the altered Aura itself and another within the boundary. The Elementalist then conjures the links of the aura and the gates themselves together so that the Mage is swept out of the Physical Plane at one point and replaced in the Physical Plane at the Exit Gate at the other end of the spell. Evocation is necessary for safety purposes, seeing as it evokes the caster through the Plane and to the other end of the spell. Approved by GM Nimh here.
Vaporization - The Elementalist casts a field of lightning around him, conjuring the essence of air in sharp bursts for the spell before evoking it with knife-like precision throughout the altered aura of pulsing energy around him. Constant control is maintained through abjuration for proximity purposes - effectively modeling an EMP wave of vaporizing energy meant to eradicate any living thing it touches.

-Detonation
-Electric Fury
-Elemental Scion
-Elemental Wall
-Mandate of Ioannes
-Meteor Storm
Create Diamond - The Elementalist can create one of the most rarest minerals of the earth through the manipulation of the essence of earth, air and fire. The general rule of thumb being that earth, plus intense heat, plus intense pressure, equals compressing thousands of eras into a single diamond. The elementalist performs this by conjuring the essence of earth while simultaneously altering pressurized air around the aforementioned earth, and also evoking and abjuring the essence of fire into the molten earth to combust it into a diamond. The amount of raw power needed for the intensity of heat and pressure allots this an Archmage’s vis. Time frame for creating a successful large diamond is roughly one cycle.
Improved Voice Enchant – Erenthril has redefined the way to make voice enchants, and I’m not telling. =P

Erenthril Mael'tharias is Lord of Kard en' Te'l Arrna.
House History: Pending...
House NPCs:
Ely’sanya Del’thurl – Relation: Cousin Description: Personal Advisor. Curvaceous and shapely, Ely’sanya Del’thurl is Erenthril’s elder cousin and his only one reputedly alive after the Vysstichi invasion. With streaking blonde locks and cerulean blue eyes, she is quite beautiful and attractive, her beauty exemplified by her elegant manner of dressing. After House Mael’tharias fell from prominence, she was forced to substitute as a housekeeper much to his disgruntlement. Skills: Journeyman Mysticism,
Basic Dagger,
Basic Housekeeping,
Intermediate Cooking.
Ghastr Del’thurl – Relation: Uncle Description: His once-handsome face has been stricken with age, newly-formed wrinkles beginning to wither his pale skin. Ghastr definitely constitutes the most elderly of the staff, a wizened figure of 531 patterns. Fortunately, his reflexes and intuition are still as sharp as ever, as is his mind. He sports hazelnut brown hair, luminescent black eyes, and a slender frame coupled with taut muscles from patterns within the military.
Ghastr is the Commander of the House Mael'tharias Guard within Kard en' Tel' Arrna, and is responsible for all of the information that is filtered through to Erenthril. He has formidable experience with the Barch and military lifestyle as a whole; Ghastr is a retired Captain from the Shining Host. He is the utmost authority figure when Erenthril is away, and is practically the second-in-command when it comes to authorative decisions around the House. He is primairly nocturnal, sleeping during Noon and the afternoon so that he may patrol during the Night with his Guards. Manages the shifts in patrols and dispatches a letter to House Firesong every brightening an darkening in order to keep updated on the situation within the Barch.
The Wind Whisperers - Relation: Placed under Erenthril's control for his temporary protection. They belong jointly to the Shining Host Phalanx and Mage Corps in Silrosia.
Senti'lious - As he stepped out of the Barch, Erenthril cast a look to his guardsman, Senti’lious. The man was apparently a Syl'rosyian Elf, sporting cascading golden-blonde hair and uncanny silver eyes. They rivaled the intensity and hue of that of the Gil’daes, though the guard had prudently remained low key enough to be sure to avoid such discussions. He knew better than to mention the word around his Heru, especially after the recent events concerning the Arwen Gil’dae. The cousin, not the alleged wife. Erenthril took note of the Elf’s light frame, broad shoulders, slender torso, and unwavering accountability. His guard was equipped in Elven mesh armor, dulled with a black alloy of some sorts that had refused to give the armor the light of day to shine off of. An emerald cloak matching Erenthril’s oak concealed the expensive equipment, and latched to his girdle was the nefarious long sword that had been entrusted to Senti’lious by the Shining Host. Slouching off his shoulders was a metal shield, leather latch fitted for an arm, emblazoned with the insignia of a tall oak tree with spread branches. Skills: Advanced Longsword,
Intermediate Shield,
Gil'dan - Originally from Medonia, his appearance differs from Senti'lious' in few aspects. He, too, sports the golden blonde locks, but usually ties his hair neatly with the aid of a crimson ribbon. His frame is slightly more heavy than his counterpart's, but he makes up for that by sheer force and power. Rumored to have been trained by the Black Rose, his history with the Shining Host is shrouded in mystery to Erenthril. Skills: Advanced Longsword
Basic Tracking
Leadership: (C)
Mae'lyane - Ever the enigmatic young Elf, she volunteered willingly to help defend House Mael'tharias from the evils within the Blackbarch. Ever bright, her mood seems to lighten as the day goes on. Quite beautiful, though innocent to the extreme, she has a deep auburn hue of hair, most unusual for an Elf, and sapphire blue eyes. Skills: Apprentice Thaumaturgy
Intermediate Healing
Basic Calligraphy
Rha'serith - Rha'serith is the most unusual member of the small patrol assigned to House Mael'tharias. An Ikos practicioner, his words are spoken in riddles and his presence unwarranted by all but the most keenest of sight. He has short, brown hair and is the only Human of the group. Of course, one could argue that only a Human would be stupid enough to become an Ikonomancer. However, House Firesong insists that his services are the most valuable against the powers lurking in the Forest. Skills: Apprentice Ikonomancy
Intermediate Arcanomechanics

tanding at 5'11" and weighing roughly 153 lbs, Erenthril sports soft tresses of chocolate brown hair that hints of Nimalni heritage, almond-shaped emerald eyes, a scarlet smile to pace his quick wit and fair-toned skin to even it all out. He has lean, taut muscles from courses in wilderness survival and gallivanting across the empire. One must approach his personality with a degree of warranted caution and a few shots of tequila, as his word of the day is spontaneous and quite frankly not enough to keep up with his unpredictably impulsive personality. Past the mires, murky water, and bog-like jumble of emotions lies a profound intellectual figure, charming, eloquent, and clever beyond all means necessary.
