Early Years
Elzar-Zehros Rezuraia is a descendent of a proud noble family that hails from the mountainous and icy region of central Anglunia named Yirsaad. Based in Rezuraia, which has remained the families home and estate for many generations, they are one of the oldest noble houses in the nation. Zehros recieved his upbringing and education amongst the Rezuraian Holy Order and from his older family members.

Being heir to the Rezuraian dynasty Zehros' education was focused upon leadership, religion and law, being groomed to assume his Father's rule as his eldest born child. Zehros proved to be an adept pupil taking well to his studies, at the age of 16 his Father sent Zehros North to the Golden Belt, (namely Rannikko) in order for him to experience wider Anglunian culture and enable him to have some life experience. Once the summer had arrived and the rivers of Yirsaad had unfrozen he embarked on his venture Northwards on his boat The Endeavour. Zehros upon his arrival met with the Lord of Rannikko Prinobots and a house was given to accommodate the young noble. Zehros, took well to Rannikko enjoying participating in local culture and building projects, working hard to construct the quarry and forge built in the Northern sector. Eventually Zehros met Bittykia whom he shared a joint business venture and construct Kia-Comet Kelp Industries. Zehros also partook in the adventure guild where he met people such as Hatchet the Entalar,  Sidja Foryel-Goldnyr and Foxstatik, whom also shared a love for exploring the world. Zehros himself was frustrated at the poor mapping of the kingdom and set about making some of the first detailed and complete maps of Anglunia, visiting each region within the nation and providing his results to the Chancellor Yinower Delas-Nuwan.

LARP Rebellion
Following the events of the 6am LARP Dinner and the massacre of Anglunian nobles, the cities of Khaz'Ausdunn and Shallowpeak in Austonia rebelled against the Great Lords. This event was known as the  LARP Rebellion. The fighting forces of Anglunia and it's allies were called to arms and marched to Austonia to crush the treacherous citizens. Serving in the regiment of Chancellor Yinower, Zehros breached the walls of Khaz'Ausdunn and participated in the engagement that followed. The Anglunian army met little resistance and the war concluded successfully and profitably for those that were involved.

Times of Reform, from Senator to Lord
In the times that followed, Zehros climbed the ladders of society, Anglunia held its first elections and he was elected as a member of the Progressive Party of Anglunia, subsequently becoming an active and outspoken member of the senate. Zehros even acted as a transitionary Great Lord upon the death of Queen Elyani Taygen-Blizun and the abdication of the other Great Lords. It was following this crisis that the Nuwan dynasty under Yinower Delas-Nuwan assumed the title of King and thus became the second royal family of Anglunia. It was not long after the stabilisation of the new dynasty on the throne that Zehros' Mother passed away and he assumed his role as Lord of Rezuraia and Protector of the Holy Tree. As landed nobility his position in the senate was permanently secured, albeit under saddening circumstances. Nonetheless, Zehros emerged as a proactive Lord, constructing improvements and repairs to the Citadel and Holy Order, strengthening it in numbers and size, whilst continuing his role in the Anglunian senate.

The Valorant War
Disagreements in the East between The Uraki Imperium and The Pirate State of Barbossa had ended in an all out declaration of war between the two Great Powers. This conflict, which would be known as the Valorant War had both sides call in their allies and resulted in a significant clash between the two forces. Anglunia being a close ally of Uraka due to family ties with the King, responded to the call and sent a force to aid the anti-Barbossa coalition. Zehros took up arms donning his newly acquired armour from blacksmiths in Yaszuma, and marched to the East with his cohorts, following an impassioned speech from the King. The Uraki warband would meet South of the Isle of Krakens first sweeping through the small settlements of Western Barbossa, then descending on the Isle itself. With odds in their favour Uraki forces swarmed the capital, the Barbossan forces fighting fiercely albeit in vein.

Winterfrost Wedding
Zehros attended the wedding between the King Yinower Delas-Nuwan and his wife Sarai Lovesong inside the great cathedral of Winterfrost. Giving gifts of high quality alcohol to the King he took seat in the audience alongside his partner Bittykia. A rather pleasant and joyous affair at first the wedding proceeded well, with the vows being proceeded over by Hatchet the Entalar and many people in attendance. Festivities began and after much consumption of alcohol and cheese the party moved outside the cathedral. It was at the attendees horror that they looked upwards and saw their King atop the cathedral standing on the high roof. Unbeknown to most the King had been corrupted by the Neihernspried a fungal virus that corrupted the minds of those it claimed. King Yinower, to everyone's alarm had been corrupted and upon uttering his final words jumped from the cathedral his demise. There was much confusion following the King's death amongst the nobility as to who would ascend to the throne with Queen Yirsidani Eliyawin Yinower-Nuwan emerging as the successor and current monarch.

Battle of Agora
Following the suicide of the late King, Zehros joined the Resistance against the Neihernspried, building a base within the resistance headquarters and started actively contributing to the elimination and destruction of the infection whenever it was found throughout the kingdom. Following various confrontations, agreements and skirmishes, it was eventually decided by resistance leader, Sidja Foryel-Goldnyr that the fight would be taken to Agora where the root of the infection could be found. Zehros and other resistance members assembled and made there was to the accursed island, landing upon the shore in boats and fighting the fungus head on. In this battle Zehros would claim two kills, injuring the enemy leader Cab Varen. The resistance emerged victorious and several corrupted members of the spried were cured of their plight.

Infrastructure Developer and Road Builder
Zehros has recently been contracted to improve the road networks of Anglunia, outdated, slow or non-existing in there current state, he has headed the project to modernise, improve and upgrade existing roads as well as constructing many new ones. A project that has been divided into several phases, it's intention if to vastly improve the infrastructure of the Kingdom. This road building endeavour has resulted in the construction of a road that spans from Norstaeyya to Krosvallad crossing nearly the entirety of Mirau.

Foreign Minister
Zehros was selected as the succesor to the role of Athavaryi (Foreign Minister) following the promotion of Hatchet_Doctor to the role of Chancellor. In his first few days of the role, Zehros finalised negotiations between Kingdom of Visio and The Pale establishing the creation of the Silver League, a defensive alliance spanning some of the major powers of the continent of Onthukhan.

Following the abdication of the Azardom of Abaddon, Zehros helped negotiate a territorial settlement with the Grand Republic of Aristios to decide the future of the region. Zehros, communicating with Inverse and SirLad, he formulated a mutually beneficial outcome in which the previously non-sensical border between Aristios and Anglunia followed new boundaries and resulted in a land trade between both nations and each to gain increased territory.

Zehros, has orchestrated the signing of several treaties, including alliances with the nations of Aurlûnor Velande, Vulperium, Mosir-Sumari and the renewal of relations with Soolia, following it's independence once more from Plagatea.

Vulperium Coronation
Zehros was invited amongst the Anglunian delegation to the Vulperium alongside Hatchet, to attend the coronation of BeastlyBrock as the Grand Valar of the Vulperium at Tildivul in Aroforn. Brock himself was a former Anglunian and has maintained a friendly relationship with his former nation since his departure, signified by the strong mutual defence agreement.

Eliyawin's Wedding
Zehros also attended the wedding between Yirsidani Eliyawin Yinower-Nuwan and Zeronia, Ento of Abal at the Myrtle Meadhall.

Battle of Perria
Following the declaration of independence by Lafros, Anglunia was called to arms by it's allies in the Silver League to defend The Pale and Visio as part of the greater Othukhan Defence Force (ODF). Zehros fought in the Battle of Perria against the Volksrepublik of Merconis as part of the Second Sand War. Assigned to the B Team which was tasked with the defence of Perria, Zehros was placed under the command of BlueArbiter in Blue Team and was tasked with the defence of the North Wall. Alongside his fellow nationals Kenshi, Sidja, BattleMoose and cousin Fume Elzar-Rezuraia they fought as part of the Anglunian squad to repel the invaders from above from the busiest section of the wall. The defense of the city prevailed and the battle resulted in a win for the coalition forces and eventually the annexation of Merconis into The Pale. For his service in the war Zehros was granted the medal: Foreign Peacekeeper by Local Tomboy for aiding Lutum and it's allies during the war.

Ascension to the Throne
Following the abdication of Queen Eliyawin Yinower-Nuwan, Zehros was selected by the Vindyi of Anglunia to be the new monarch of the nation. In his first acts as monarch two friendship and trade treaties were announced between the Vulperium and Falholt. His coronation was conducted in the newly constructed Isaz castle where he was officialised as the Yirsidan.

Ice highways
Having come to the throne, Zehros decided to help coordinate, perhaps the biggest infrastructural development in Anglunian history. After generations of dealing with banditry and theft in the nether dimension, a great Anglunian ice highway system began construction, with lines intended to be constructed between every settlement in the country alongside terminals leading to neighbouring countries.

Augurs of Unity Festival
Zehros attended and coordinated the Augurs of Unity Festival which took place on the summer of 152 SMP in the town of Norstaeyya. Having listened to the Soleviel and Solonist priests, he led the Arternaian preaching himself. Where he recounted each of the Arterna, describing their power and influence, and with each he prepared a sacrifice befitting of their purpose.

However, this festival was much more special than those that had come before. Having finished the sacrifices, the Yirsidan climbed to the top of the bonfire and beseeched the Gods to show his people a sign to demonstrate their love for Anglunia. There the young monarch seemed to be taken by a strange force, gripping him suddenly and elevating him a couple of feet off of the ground. From his body a huge dragon emerged, taking control of the Yirsidan in front of all in attendance. The love of the great god Azeras demonstrated in full sight of the Anglunian people. The whole spectacle lasted but a couple of minutes but many in attendance were reduced to tears of joy having seen the holy dragon of Azeras first-hand.

Having been released from the grip of the God, Zehros fell off of the pyre, stumbling for a few moments until he got his bearings. Unsure what had happened the people around him looked in awe, confused at first he asked the people, "why did they look at him so?." A moment of silence ensued until the Onsyr of Rannikko Seryn Goldnyr spoke up, "my liege the spirit of Azeras possessed you", she exclaimed, "he showed himself to us through you." Taken aback by the notion Zehros composed himself, looking broadly to the people of his great nation, he shed silent tears, "to all of you, my people whom I care for so deeply, to this country that I would sacrifice all for, we are blessed, and all here on this day have been shown the love of our Gods, we shall remember this day for eternity." A great roar erupted amongst the people in attendance, Arternaian and alike, even those who did not follow the Aterna shared in one another's humility having been visited by such a great being in the flesh.

It was here that Zehros given the epithet 'the Dragon', making his full title Yirsidan Zehros Elzar-Rezuraia 'the dragon' of Anglunia.

Tenure as Yirsidan
Zehros' tenure as Yirsidan is generally seen as a time of stability and growth for Anglunia lasting 56 years until its dramatic conclusion. Anglunia's population grew to new heights as reflected in census demographics. Its global influence increased considerably with the nation taking on new vassals of the Bel-Ismer, Novastonia, Farania and the Pale. Additionally Anglunia's infrastructure was world leading with considerable ice highways and roads spanning every town in the nation.

Personality
Zehros Elzar-Rezuraia's personality is very logical minded, often seeing issues as black and white or right and wrong, he can be quite vocal about his misconceptions or grievances often confronting his problems through dialogue or debate.

His temperament is generally calm and collected, much preferring argument or debate through reasoned, polite and well thought out discussion rather than through emotive, aggressive or personal medium's of communication. Whilst Zehros thinks about thing's often in a straightforward and logical manner, he can sometimes demonstrate his nobility in his approach and can come off to some that do not known him as arrogant. Nonetheless, this perception is not intended to be interpreted as such and although sometimes too blunt, it is a reflection of his black and white thinking and not a greater feeling of superiority in his character.
