Journal Entry: Malkius

            Malkius is a Chaos Elf, but this once you must not believe that he fits the Chaos Elf mold.  If Malkius got anything from his elven family it would be his brooding.  Beyond that, Malkius is nothing like his people.  Some may think he is a normal Chaos Elf, but that is in part due to the fact that he is the Master of Weapons.  As the Head of the Fighters Klan Malkius has felt that he must be two different people.  Those who truly know him understand him and know his kindness, goodness, hate of his elven family and all they stand for, and his drive to improve the world.  Those who only know him as the Master of Weapons see a hard, well disciplined, goal oriented machine.  That may not sound like a Chaos Elf, but when you have preconceived notions it is easy to fit those characteristics into the ruthless mold of a Chaos Elf if you don’t know any better.

            Malkius has always struggled to keep his personal life away from his position as Master of Weapons.  Because of this he spends as much time as he can away from Klan Gorod.  His time away is restricted by his requirement to be in his Klan Home for certain periods of time, or he would lose his title. 

It may appear that I do not give much information about Malkius, but that is because I am not one of those whom he calls friend.  Malkius is very adept at hiding information from those he does not wish to find it.  I believe that I am one of the few who knows where he goes and what he does, despite the fact that I do not know him well personally.  If I were to leave my seclusion and secrecy and reveal myself to the world, I believe my strongest ally would be Malkius because he and I fight for the same cause.  What better compliment could I pay him than to say we hold the same ideals and goals?

Journal Entry: Kaelus

            Kaelus is a Chaos Elf and he is Magius’ twin brother.  As I stated when I wrote about Magius, Kaelus is a member of the Fighter’s Klan.  While his family and elven family do not have much respect for any type of warrior, I must say that Kaelus is very good at what he does.  Perhaps a driving factor in his physical excellence and skill with almost any weapon are the distaste and lack of respect he was always shown by his own people.  Whatever the case may be, I only know of one person more skilled with weapons and more physically disciplined than Kaelus, and that is Malkius.  Malkius is the Master of Weapons, the Head of the Fighter’s Klan.

            Chaos Elves as a general rule are greedy and selfish.  Kaelus is somewhat of an oddity among his own kind.  These traits are present in him, but not to the normal extent.  Kaelus has many of the attributes of a good leader.  Among any other people this would be a good thing.  His mother and brother seem to latch on to some of these characteristics to use against him.  Mallaga and Magius dispose of anyone who is no longer useful to them and have even been known to kill on a whim.  While Mallaga and Magius use this knowledge to rule by fear, Kaelus does not.  He has been known to kill some of his fellow Chaos Elves, but not without reason.  This ability to stay his hand when killing is not necessary has earned him a sort of respect among his people. 

Kaelus truly is an oddity among his people.  A Chaos Elf would never be called just or fair, but I would be tempted at times to call Kaelus both.  Sometimes I wonder what he must think of his own people, but at other times he seems to fit in perfectly with the blackened souls that call themselves Chaos Elves.
