====== Araray, the Elven King =====
Araray, the elven, ageless patriarch of [[planes:aurius:arethayn:start|Arethayn]] who rules beside the immaculate and empowered elven queen of [[pantheons:deities:diona|Diona]], is one of the original [[pantheons:class:cephareth|Cephareth]] who managed to survive into modernity as a result of his adroitness in the arts of powerful wizardry and the magics practiced by the Cephareth. As a result of his survival, he is praised and acknowledged as the king of Arethayn who has ruled the land upon the event of the deaths of the other Cephareth from these times. He is believed to be a quintessential format of all of the elven peoples as he represents the perfection of the Cephareth that had since become spoiled as the curse of [[pantheons:deities:azratha|Azratha]] was instigated, and which had changed the elven peoples from their more perfect forms in the beginning time which did not have a need for reproduction. Thus, Araray is an artifact from these times, and accordingly, possesses a great wisdom that can only be described to originate from his status as a deified Cephareth that had since ascended to the throne. In addition to this great status observed throughout the peoples of the elven state of Arethayn, he is known to possess far greater powers and deific abilities than those of his underlings and, as a result, is known to instruct those beneath him in the arts of magic which he is so adroit with and those which he had preserved from the previous era of which light knew no limitations among the mortal plane.\\

Because of the believed purity of Araray as the sole survivor of the curse of death which plagued the original powers of the Cephareth, he oftentimes regales his tales of how the Cephareth had formed themselves in the times of [[pantheons:deities:caelarkhe|Caelarkhe’s]] presence, with the underlying indication of these stories being their superiority to the mortal races of man which existed from without Caelarkhe’s blessing.\\

As the ruler of Arethayn, he is known to be admired as a divinely powerful mage, with many coming to him in order to cleanse themselves of their imperfection through the use of his banishing magics. He is also believed to be just to his people and thus, supremely wise and possessing greater advice and patronage, his illustrious power of wizardry not believed to be his only virtue. This advice is oftentimes tinged with a degree of righteousness and arrogance, as noted by the elven peoples that were excommunicated from Arethayn, the advent of his lordship having marked a new era for them to become apart from the land of ever-flowing mana.
