Avari Elves

Modern History
The tribes of the Avari elves were un-united or had unnamed small leaders and lords for most of the known history of the server, until not that long ago a young Avari elf named “Taitron” stumbled upon a dwarf named “Fox” who had just discovered what looked to be an ancient hall of some sort, in the middle of the forest west of the red mountains. The two of them started talking, became friends and decided to build a base in the trees and ground here, for the soon discovered a ravine nearby in which they later started building their halls. After some early incidents between the Iron Hills king and another Avari elf who joined the cause of Taitron and Fox, named “Hestaphos”, Taitron cleared the tension between the Iron Hills and the growing Avari tribe and he declared to his companions that he would like to become the king of the Avari Elves. After a bit of commotion and discussion, his companions agreed to this, and after a short time of intensive building, the capital was done and Taitron was named king of the Avari Elves.

Taitron’s reign was, to say the least, an interesting one. It was filled with reforms, conflicts, wars, loss of companions, founding of orders, surrenders, betrayals, parties but mostly, a whole lot of building. For at heart Taitron was a builder king, not a war hungry king. Yet war came upon him nonetheless.

Taitron had many wars but came out worse than he went in, as if the odds were stacked against him in every battle.

After isolating his kingdom from all realms of men, a long period of peace and quiet ensued. Taitron slowly started to creep towards darkness, for even though he was an elf, he was susceptible to corruption. One day Taitron dissapeared entirely, leaving the kingdom of Avari to rot and dwindle, the kingdom once again splitting into the 7 tribes they where before. Some say Taitron was always a follower of Sauron or potentially Sauron himself, some say he turned to the Beornings and now roams the vales of Anduin in the shape of a giant bear, however no one truly knows.

A few months later a new elf rose to power quite quickly by gaining the trust of his fellow lords and ladies, this elf is known as Voultronix. Voultronix was crowned the new king of the Avari-elves and promised his fellow elves that he would restore the faction to the strength it once was under Taitron.

Wars
Under Taitron's rule, the Avari Elves had a fun war with Umbar, at the time ruled by Ship-Queen Nemu.

Diplomacy
In the lore of Age of Sauron, there are two types of Avari Elves: Due to the devided tribes of the Avari Elves, the diplomatic actions of the rulers can be very different based on whether the said ruler is a Minuial or a Hïste Avari elf.
 * Hïste (dusk/night/evil): Due to the isolation from their western kin, they turned to the evil side. They despise the race of men and use enslaved Easterling or Umbar troops in war. They wear a black uruk set with a wood-elven scout hood.
 * Minuial (dawn/morning/good): They are the true, pure hearted kin of the Woodland Elves. They use wood-elven troops in war and are wearing a woodland warrior set with ithiliën ranger boots and hood.

Alliances
Under King Taitron's rule, the Avari Elves were allied with good factions, but also tolerated the evil side by signing non-agression pacts. Voultronix allied with Dorwinion to form the Eastern Elven alliance to ensure Avari would be supported in any wars. King Pip started out as a Minuial Avari and therefore allied with the corresponding good factions, but then suddenly turned to the evil side. He broke all ties with his previous allies, became part of The Solar Federation and allied with Mordor.

Builds
Due to the fact that Pip's, Taitron's and Delta's (Lady under Voultronix) avari towns were built close to each other, the three began the Road Project. They built a road connecting the three villages and some additional structures alongside it.
