Faelael Mirosaer

Prince of House Mirosaer, Third of His Name, Oathsworn to the Crown of Milanthris

The blight that runs through the villages of our peasantry spreads further every day. That infection seeps from them and into our fields, our lake and the sages we send to help them. I do not propose we abandon them to their fate but I do suggest we prioritize matters. If the peasantry perishes we lose loyal servants and that is truly saddening. However, if we are lost the cost to our race and to Tairos is beyond imagining. Once this caravan establishes a new farmland for us only then can we put our every effort into purifying the peasantry.
— Lord Faelael Mirosaer in his plea for support for the New Sanctuary Expedition

The Prince of House Mirosaer is a young man by elven standards, but at over three hundred years old he can easily remember the age of elven supremacy over the land. That superiority was born from the elven alliance with The Autumn Queen and her Fae but that fact carries little weight in his mind. To him, the Fae chose the most power ally they could and that was the Elves.

Faelael is typical of elves in his position. He is deeply ambitious and has little tolerance for the endeavors of the other races. He sees Ghal Pelor as a threat to Melanthris' return to prominence yet he also recognizes they may be the only chance his people have at securing a reliable supply of food. That desperation has forced him and many like him to accept that a new age is on the horizon; one where survival may have to come at the cost of old borders and old traditions.

The Prince of House Mirosaer brings centuries of experience to the expedition. He's a peerless combatant, a tactician, politician and forceful leader. He is also deeply concerned with keeping the caravan on track and making sure they do not expand beyond the scope of their mission.

Contacts & Relations

Teradyne Elite - Faelael travels with 12 of House Mirosaer's most valuable and well trained soldiers. The Teradyne elite are named after the House founder's fable spear, Teradyne, which in the elven tongue translates to Heartseeker. They are trained in spear and shield combat as well as being accomplished archers. These men and women are loyal to House Mirosaer above all others, even the crown of Melanthris.

Aurae Yanith -

Consort to the Prince. Aurae has been Faelael's favored consort for over a decade now and she has been in service to House Mirosaer for at least twenty years prior to being chosen by the Prince. She is an accomplished diplomat in her own way. She favors compromise, discourse and when all else fails political blackmail. She is also trained as a healer has used those skills to repair her injured Prince when the need arises. Both her and Faelael are very close and if House tradition allowed it he would wed her.

Like the rest of the elven nobility Faelael resents the gods, especially Corellon The Dawn Master. He believes he, the Houses and the Crown have done more for the mortals of Tairos then they ever have.

Social Aptitude

Faelael is refined, intimidating and cold in his interactions with others. The only exception to that is with the King of Melanthris and his chosen consort.
