Story:Kings of Strife/Eternal

The Eternal Corps is a specialized group of Nolstuvainia Sestrum's army, established by Gin Taoris and lead by Tlerius Rin. There are initially nine members of the group, although their numbers fluctuate during the course of the story. They are distinguishable from the normal khaki-uniformed Shorican soldiers because they wear exclusive silver cloaks.

First
The first formation of the Eternal Corps revolves around the ideal of a small special ops squad. Tlerius=
 * Name: Tlerius Rin
 * Gender: Male
 * Age: 40s
 * Race: Shorican
 * Weapon:
 * Appearance: Very tall and large. Has a square jaw with a black beard and unruly gray hair. As the Leader of the Corps, his silver cloak has a distinctive fur collar.
 * Personality: A very stalwart and determined man who fights for righteousness.
 * Bio: First Leader of the Eternal Corps. Originally a Shorican sailor, he loses most of his naval wealth after an Inusian weapon test destroys his boat 'accidentally'. He joins the Shorican military then, and becomes startled and jaded in seeing how the Shorican military coddles Inusian interests and doesn't guard its borders at all. When Vainia usurps the nation and claims her antagonism towards Inusia and her interests in bringing Shorica to power, he gladly joins her cause.


 * After meeting Vik and Jutenas in Chapter 36, he fights on Vainia's flagship in the Battle of Icarun (Chapter 38) and subsequently flees with her, along with Baron of War Tasshon el Divrus and fellow Eternal Corps members Azur and Hrevi.

Azur=
 * Name: Azur Atrai
 * Gender: Male
 * Age: Late 20s
 * Race: Native Norzavish
 * Weapon:
 * Appearance: Tall and dark-skinned with short white hair, Azur is an image of the typical Native Norzavish person.
 * Personality: Very up-front and aggressive. The only people he listens to when told to calm down are Lady Vainia and Leader Rin. Although he loves a fight, he has a good head on his shoulders, and is actually tactically sound when it comes to strategy, if a bit rash.
 * Bio: A Native Norzavish who spent his years on pirating ships since he was a child. After years of plundering and battling, he loses a lot of his crew in an Inusian government ambush for his group's constant plunder of coastal Inusian towns. Developing a hatred for Inusians because of this, he joins the Shorican navy, which is the next best thing to his own profession. The years in much less violent servitude are good for his temper, but when Vainia hosts her takeover and declares war on Inusia, he doesn't bat an eye in joining what he sees as his dream group. His strength and experience make him a shoe-in for the Eternal Corps.


 * After meeting Vik and Jutenas in Chapter 36, he fights on Vainia's flagship in the Battle of Icarun (Chapter 38) and subsequently flees with her, along with Baron of War Tasshon el Divrus and fellow Eternal Corps members Azur and Leader Tlerius Rin.

Moritaka=
 * Name: Moritaka Posmos
 * Gender: Male
 * Age: Appears to be around 17~18
 * Race:
 * Weapon:
 * Appearance: A skinny blond youth with piercing eyes with unnatural red coloration. His hair is unkempt and he wears a dingy multicolored hat/scarf atop his head that he found when he woke up in the damaged city of Shorekeep.
 * Personality:
 * Bio: An amnesiac boy who awakens after the Shorekeep riots next to Vikcent Hyusei. After hearing of the man's goals and seeing the destroyed city around him, Moritaka decides to take his life into his own hands and fight for a cause he believes in, which so happens to be Vainia's. In his training to be part of her militia, he shines with incredible skills and peak physical ability, so he ends up in her Eternal Corps.


 * He meets Vik and Jutenas in Chapter 36 when they return from Nneoh, and he stays in Shorekeep to guard the castle during the Battle of Icarun (Chapter 38).



Dolfh= Ghreck= Hris= Wensty=
 * Name: Dolfh Rveld
 * Gender: Male
 * Age: Early 20s
 * Race: Shorican
 * Weapon:
 * Appearance: A man of average height and fair skin. He has long black hair usually pulled back into a bun and a grizzled beard. Although he looks distinguished and experienced, he is actually quite young and reckless.
 * Personality: A confident soldier born with an ax in his hand and a chip on his shoulder. He is selfish and argumentative, but quick to defend those he loves and cares for. Probably the Corps member most likely to serve because of his attraction to Vainia.
 * Bio: He meets Vik and Jutenas in Chapter 36 when they return from Nneoh, and he stays in Shorekeep to guard the city during the Battle of Icarun (Chapter 38).
 * Name: Ghreck Khantranteirn
 * Gender: Male
 * Age: Early 30s
 * Race: Shorican
 * Weapon:
 * Appearance: Very tall, and with a mop of red hair. Wears glasses and likes to tighten his jaw; very prominent cheekbones. In general he looks much younger than he really is.
 * Personality: Prideful and confident, Ghreck was one of the first applicants for the Eternal Corps. He believes no other is better than him in most fields he is proficient in, which isn't usually wrong; he is clever, and quick to master something. However, he is quite stubborn and prone to mistakes when his confidence leads him astray.
 * Bio: He fights under Vik's command at the Battle of Icarun (Chapter 38), and rejects the ambassador commander's intuition to flee. When Vainia's ship retreats and Vik abandons the battle, Ghreck takes command of his ship and leads it to the battle; ultimately he is killed in action, along with most of the other remaining soldiers.
 * Name: Hris Mneumon
 * Gender: Male
 * Age:
 * Race: Shorican
 * Weapon:
 * Appearance:
 * Personality:
 * Bio: He fights in the Battle of Icarun (Chapter 38) and takes command of a ship. He does not fight on Vainia's flagship, and is killed in action when the tables turn.

 * Bio: A runaway Inusian soldier who deserted upon seeing the disaster at Phenicks and losing in the riots of Shorekeep. She quickly switches sides to the Shorican militia to stay alive, and her considerable skill with firearms lands her a part in the Eternal Corps.


 * She is one of the Corps members most content with guarding important characters, so she is the one guarding Vainia and the Barons in a meeting in Chapter 36, where she is introduced. She stays in Shorekeep during the Battle of Icarun (Chapter 38) to guard the remaining Barons.

Hrevi=
 * Name: Hrevi Charicus

Third
Formed after the Great Separation, the third incarnation of the Eternal Corps is much larger in scope, and is mostly independent from Vainia's army. The two organizations do work together with civility, and some veteran Eternal Corps members guard/accompany Vainia and her Barons just as the original squad did.
