The Four Swords of Elegos, as legend calls them, are Sacred Blades forged by the Legendary Celestial Guardians, and empowered with the Will of the World. They are without a doubt the most powerful Weapons in the World. Some speculate that if the legend of the Swords Blessing by Elegos is true, the Swords themselves are alive in some way. This goes in hand with other legends speaking of the Swords as choosing its next wielder, and that none other than the chosens can even lift the blades.

Gideon Academy​

Official Designation:
Gideon Academy
Location: Tyre Island Nation
Organized Centers:
Skyloft Island
Tower of the Ancients
Training Period: At least 10 years

Historical Description:
Close to 2000 years ago, a great Island nation, the Kingdom of Tyre was decimated by invading forces of the Western Empire. From there they launched their campaign of conquest of the remaining free Kingdoms of the North and conquest of the Eastern Union. However before they could do more damage and destroy the balance in the world, The Four Sword Masters of Elegos stepped in and halted their near unstoppable conquest. Thus concluded this war between the 4 lands.

The Great divide was established between the Empire and the Republic, Magdalen Island Country remained in the possession of the Empire and became known as Lhasa Province, and Tyre Island Country was abandoned to both the Kingdoms and the Empire. So complete was the devastation upon that Land that no one dare return to it. It was then that a miracle took place.

It is said Five individuals walked along it's shores, across its land and climbed its mountains. As they did life returned to it, until it's re-invigoration was completed allowing for creatures and plant-life to flourish. This event was only downplayed by the fact that those responsible for this were members of the great Races of old.

The Great Races of Old were the Guardians and Keepers of the World of Elegos before and during the Great War against the Spirit Forces of Heaven and Hell. There numbers dwindled greatly throughout the course of that great war until its End. These Keepers had decided that after the war, they would cut off their ties to the Humans of Elegos for reasons of their own. One belief is held that they believed Humankind was ready to lead the World to prosperity, but none can say for certain.

The Five, each from a different Keeper Race, claimed Tyre as their own, and thus this land became the final means of contact with the great ones of lore. They soon after founded the Gideon Academy and became the Master Instructors headed by the HeadMaster of this school. Warriors of all sorts were welcomed to this school to train and hone their skills, learn from the masters of the elements and lead a life that superseded their individual differences.

  Treants are said to be the oldest of the Guardian Clans. Although they are said to live no longer than 500 years when they die, a new Treant is born from its dead corpse.

In that way they may seem to be immortal, however with each cycle, the new entity is wholly different than the previous one or the next one. After the great war they repopulated the planet with trees, a task that took 1000 years to accomplish. Soon after they went into these deeply covered forests and jungles to live in seclusion as they had done before the great war. Even among the Guardian Clans, they are seldom seen. Not many humans know or acknowledge their existence but an old proverb states: "Never shall you be lost in the forest shepherded by the Treant. "
  
  
  
  Physical Appearance

  
  Treants appear no different than other trees when not in motion. But when they do move what seem to look like hands and feet become visible and from the trunk a face is clearly distinguishable.

  History:
  The Ferus are a proud and noble Clan. Modern day agriculture and hunting techniques have been developed from the principles taught to humans by this Guardian Clan. Although combative in nature, it is not their way to War much less take a life for many of the reasons humankind does. Because of this they also entered into the Pact of Segregation like the Elves. Unlike the Elves however, much of the different Ferus Clans were nomadic and had to follow sources of food and thus with the help of the Elves developed Artes that would mask their appearance so as to travel freely around the world, though they would do so as secretly as possible.

  The Ferus are likened to humanoid animals. They can walk on two legs and have arms like humans. The head areas specifically are what is most different, as they take on the shape and features akin to their standard animal counterparts.

Around the time the Pact of Segregation was formed, the Elves had given this arte of transformation to the Mermaids. In doing so they would be able to hide in plain sight and observe humans.

  Title: Guardian of the Deep
  LifeSpan: 50 years
  
  History:
  During the Great War, the Crustallieans proved to be the mightiest of Warriors and Defenders of their Domain. Because their lives are shorter lived than most other intelligent entities, their ideologies can change quickly within a generation, and that proved to be so after the war, as they put aside their war-like nature in favor of cultivating the ocean. As the Water sprites and Mermaids cleansed the waterways, the Crustallieans cultivated underwater plantlife and protected creatures that were endanger of extinction. As time went on, they did not see the need to agree upon the Pact of Segregation as human societies and underwater communities would never clash as they were fundamentally different. However as humans took to the waters with their great sail ships, encroachment was visible and many felt their duty to protect the oceans rise anew against humans. Skirmishes here and there have occured but none of them can confirm it was the work of Crustallieans.
  
  
  
  Physical Appearance

  
  - They are larger than the average human, with an adult measuring no shorter than 2m, some are even 3m tall.
  - They are covered from head to toe with armor fashioned from their own molts and hardened shells and rocks of the sea.

  Race Name: Gargoyle
  Title: Guardian DarkSky
  LifeSpan: 300 Years
  
  History:
  During the Great War it is said the Gargoyles faced a mountain sized Monster and had to fight day and night to prevent it from reaching a mountain range that was their home. It was then that they developed what is known as the Rejuvenation Cycle. This allowed the gargoyles to turn to stone according to the cycle of day and night. In doing, when awakened they could fight with twice the power they normally had, and when at rest as stone, they could rejuvenate twice as fast. As such after the Great War, the Gargoyles continued as they were and eventually became 2 groups. Although most stay away from humans, a few deviants and outcasts have sought shelter with humans, becoming statues atop various buildings and castles for protection and in exchange servants of vengeance during the night.

HalfLings of Elegos
HALFLING PICTURES

The Halflings of Elegos are the forgotten race of the World. For centuries after the Great War, When the Keepers vanished from this world and the Guardians and Humans lived together for a time, there was born between the unison of these peoples, the race known as the Halflings. For a Era, this was the normality. However as humans began to war against each other more and more, dragging the Guardians into their conflicts, the Elves, representing the Guardian Clans, formed what is now called the Pact of Segregation. This Pact, mostly adhered to by the Guardians, serve to distance them away from the Human population and their destructive nature. While it was originally started by the Elves, the other clans soon joined this Pact out of necessity, others saw no need to join as their nature or environment, meant they had limited contact with the human world in the first place.

In the early years, this had created strife and animosity between the races, and those caught in the middle, were the Halflings, children born of mixed race from humans and guardians, and their parents. Once they had found a home within each others peoples, now, they were outcasts. It was in this time they began to form the Gemini Society. The Society comprised of Halflings, their parents, and moderates from all races who shared in their views of tolerance and inclusion. Today, they live in secret, hidden away from the societies of humans and claners alike.

• The Dwarun
• The Demi-beasts

  Race Name: Half-Elves
  Required Races: Elf and Human
  LifeSpan: 1000 years
  
  History:
  In the past, Half-Elves were the most common of Halflings after the Great War. Most notably, relationships were between Human Men and Elven Women. There were usually 7 female half-elves to 1 male half-elf. After the Pact of Segregation was put in place, Half-elves were no longer welcome in human towns or elven colonies. Because of this, many were forced to find settlements elsewhere. Their parents, full-bloods and other moderates were welcome to join them in these small secluded towns.
  
  Human Wars and other atrocities brought about by human made it that Half-Elves needed to stay hidden and away from these events. Soon enough, human prejudice lead to the treatment of half-elves as pariahs and outcasts. They along with other halflings were to be hunted and slaughtered, branded as unnatural beings. Although the Guardian Clans did not share their mindset, they were bound by the Pact of Segregation. Settlements and Colonies burned to the ground until very few half-elves remain.
  
  More than 1000 years after the formation of the Pact, Half-elves witnessed the clash of human superpowers in the Continental Wars. These wars, took the attention away from Halflings, leaving the Half-elves to secretly form the Gemini Society, an organization that links the peoples of Half-kind and their supporters. The organization starts from a single region to becoming a secret, but worldwide force dedicated to the protection and preservation of the Halflings of Elegos.
