ATHALEUS

Athaleus was a human champion who fought primarily for House Donrim during the latter half of the War of Kings. His exceptional talent in battle led many to consider him the greatest warrior in Anim's history.

Birth and Early Life
Athaleus was born in 6019 to Athandos and Evelyn. Athandos, an aspiring warrior, left his family on his own resolve to seek glory in war; he would never return and was presumed dead. Evelyn, however, remained a faithful mother all her days and raised Athaleus on the farmlands of House Donrim.

In his youth, Athaleus would send hours in the fields each day, playing with wooden swords and tending to his mother's horses. He loved to compete against the other boys from nearby farms in games of various kinds; it seemed he won nearly every time they played, for he was a very gifted athlete from a young age.
