Lowren

(a.k.a. The Sun)

Kindness, Charity, Family. The final three pillars that form the basis of Elvish culture and religion. Lowren was the youngest son of The Three sons, slightly separated from his other two brothers as he partially founded Oldtown in addition to Andlis-Harh. He gave his life to helping others and founding what today has become The Ailda-Weir.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

After starting the settlement that would go on to become Oldtown and then meeting with his brothers and building the two settlements up together Lowren stopped being a major leader and began to help the sick, the old and the disabled. It was common that Elves develop issues in their old age due to their long lives. It was not often a happy old age and the Elves were working tirelessly for most of their lives to build the settlements into strong, thriving cities. Lowren saw this sacrifice and vowed to help them, whatever the cost. During his time helping others he began recruiting Elves to help him, those who shared his belief that you should do whatever you can to help no matter the cost to oneself. This later became the formal group of healers known as The Ailda-Weir, which survived the years and even became a part of Human society.   Lowren spent his time healing and he became a master in the art of Restoring Magic. Years passed and Lowren fell in love with another healer, and after a while they were married and had several children. When the news reached him of his brother Gilidriel dying he wanted to go and help his other brother, but his group convinced him to stay and help the outlying villages and continue to heal the sick. It was only after news reached him of Rottria being killed that he left to help keep the peace in Andlis-Harh. He arrived in the capital and was immediately greeted by disorder, he managed to restore the leadership and bring back trade and law to the city, with the help of The Protectors. After a while Lowren was ready to head back to the tribes and villages to help others but something stopped him.   The legend goes that the Agamine approached Lowren disguised as his brother Gilidriel, and told him that his brothers had been greedy, they didn't understand the true meaning of life. He told Lowren that he saw how great a leader he could be and that he would make him the most powerful Elf to have ever live. Lowren however wasn't interested, he asked his 'brother' the last words their father spoke to them, and Agamine was stumped. Lowren told the demon to leave, but the demon was determined to trick the last brother. The first had been obsessed with bringing justice, the second to proving his cunning and outsmarting the demon, but this third brother wanted nothing, he had no motives. The demon followed Lowren for 10 years, trying to convince him to take his offer, to corrupt the innocent Elf. But Lowren never accepted, telling the demon each time he wasn't interested, even trying to befriend the demon at times, offering to try to help him. Agamine was furious, in his anger he kidnapped Lowren's wife and told him he would only release her if Lowren took his offer and seized power in Andlis-Harh, going against all he believed in. Lowren was calm, he told the demon that he would not betray all he believed in, but he also wouldn't let his wife die. He offered the demon another option, he would die in her place and Agamine would have his victory over all three brothers. Agamine was intrigued, but he had to be sure so, the story tells of the demon trapping Lowren's wife the sky itself, locking her away to make sure she could not escape, this created the moon. Then, the demon came to Lowren, apparently the demon could do no harm to any mortal being, and he had only tricked his brothers into their deaths, although he never explained who exactly killed Rottria. Agamine said that he could however keep his wife away from him forever, Lowren told him he understood and was ready to die. Agamine watched as Lowren drank a vial of poison and slowly drifted off. The demon then had to watch as the ground around him glowed, a spell had been cast by Lowren's followers that had bound the demon's life to Lowren's. As Lowren died so did the demon, he writhed and screamed, realising he had been beaten, in his rage he managed to stay bound to the world, with him and Lowren locked together to create the Sun. Lowren always following his lost love each day, Agamine always trying to keep them apart to punish Lowren for defeating him, their eternal struggle causing the raging fire of the sun.
