Allegiance: Whide Axis


Description:

The High Elves are a race of Rossnes light elves who lived in Ushaenor, Zarhuy, Aels and Hieyoks. Frequently tall and large relative to other elf types, hence the name. Even so, some are taller than others, many being not much taller than other elves of other types. Often very light skinned with light hair, but skin and hair color could be quite variable.

They where divided in two main ethnic groups in northern Ushaenor: the Golden Elves, from the northwest, who often had light hair, and the Silver Elves of the Southwest, who often had darker hair.

History:


The origin of the High elves is in the prehistoric migrations from Rossnes tribes from the original elven homelands in Polforia -Aels- to Ushaenor: Once there, the rossnes, who settled on the continent of Ushaenor began to be called light or high elves, in comparison to the Hake dark elves.

When
the rossnes arrived and settled in Ushaenor, most of the lands were already under dominion of the Hake Empire, but the civilized dark elves, worried about the arrival of hordes of barbarians, they gave the Rossnes Elves lands in North Ushaenor, mostly unpopulated, making the rossnes elves their vassals and mercenaries.

However, as the Hake empire's power began to decay, and the "High elves" began to rise -they began calling themselves in such a way because of a physical trait, being that they were much taller than the Hakes and other elves- and finally, after centuries of problems, what will become the "elven war", between the light and Dark elves.

In the end, the High Elves emerged weakened, but victorious. After a short of struggle of power between the High Elf Kingdoms, the Empire of Whide Axis surged from the crisis as a federation with only a nominal authority -the emperor- of high elf states.

The High Elves, having achieved the hegemony during the middle and late ages of elf-kind, began then an imperialist age of expansion to show that they were still in their golden age, which meant the settlement of high elf colonies and kingdoms on the continents of Zarhuy, Aels and Hieyoks, following what they thought was their divine destiny to rule the world, bringing civilization to the barbarian (other elves) and rule to the monsters (non-elves).

However, the continuous wars had weakened their forces, and after the Apparition of Humanity and the Age of Invasions most of their territories held in Hieyoks, Aels and Zarhuy will be lost.

The Kingdom of the Hidden Valley of Rohnion

The Kingdom of the Hidden Valley of Rohnion was one of the few High elven kingdoms that remained in Zarhuy after the Age of Invasions -along with Vanilion, Thilien and Nortolon-. In part, the continuty of the existence of Rohnion was thanks to the isolated location in a large valley, surrounded by high mountain ranges with few, difficult mountain passes. The defense and fortification of these paths and a politic of isolation -as well, distance from the main trade routes of Zarhuy-, resulted in a kingdom cut from the rest of Aiers, with only sporadic relations with Nortolon, their inmediate neighbours that watched the more accesible, eastern mountain paths.

Bored in classes, and I remembered some kind of armor I see, somewhere in DeviantArt, thought I can't remember where :P

...


EDIT
1: AH! Thanks to a comment of Sordcooper2, now everything makes sense!

I meet in DeviantART severly pics of a game -unknow for me [then]- called "Dragon Age", or something like that, and so, I bassed this concept of armor from the sketches and images I see across DeviantART

-thought I failed to remember that-

So, since is from a game, and now I know the source, I can say:

"Dragon Age: Origins Awakening is © Bioware & EA (Edmonton Studio)"

So the armor heavily inspirated in said pics is of them -I think, I never truly understand how these things legally go, and I studied laws :P-

About the elf, who know, I made a rather generic Elf-lady design, so I don't know if is similar to a character of the game or not :P

sucks to have my memory

Edit 17.05.2015: Edited and coloured the old pic from 2010!!

Edit 18.12.2022: Saw a mistake I had to fix!
