+ music; plays the guitar, harp, piano, violin, cello, and flute to the surprise of everyone who learns this, and also has a rather nice singing voice; he often plays an instrument or sings to himself when he cannot sleep or has woken due to a nightmare/night terror

Elias has never gotten along with his older brother Stefanos, and tries to warn their father about his intentions for the throne. His warnings go unheeded, but Stefanos knows Elias dislikes him and would make a more popular king. It was always determined that Stefanos would become king, being the eldest after all, and Elias doesnโt mind not becoming king. What he worries about is the distinct possibility that Stefanos would be more totalitarian than previous ancestors, or would become more war-desiring than Stavros, their father. It is clear Elias disapproves of Stefanosโ ideas for leadership, and thus pursues politics in whatever way he can, going so far as to pursue becoming a senator, only to be told he couldnโt because he was a prince.
Elias is incredibly skilled in combat โ hand-to-hand, wrestling, swordfighting, archery, marksmanship, staff-wielding, javelin/spear, etc, even a whip, and can use both hands with equal skill โ and is a gifted strategist. He is very good with knots and ropes, and often uses knots to help release excess tension before sleep or meetings; this is something he picked up after military training
The only person who sees someone other than Elias the military commander is his sister, Dafni. She sees a happy man, one who isnโt afraid to play, to smile, to laugh. Sheโs able to get him to put down the sword and shield and get out the gentle, loving, romantic in him. Elias therefore is closest to his sister, and is concerned Stefanos may decide to kill her or otherwise dispose of her in order to make sure she doesnโt ask too many questions if Stefanos does something to get rid of his younger brother.
He is fluent in several languages, and where he lacks in political strength he makes up for in physical strength. He is often sparring, training, or otherwise practicing his fighting skills, but will also exercise his strategy skills by participating in sports, often training with Dafni. His only friends are soldiers, and most of them are stationed throughout the country or the sons and daughters of council members or senators.
Eliasโ best friend is a general named Emilios, and it is often said Elias is so similar to the man that they are more brothers than Elias is to Stefanos.
There have been numerous instances where Elias has saved Stefanos from assassination; however, almost all these attacks were staged by Stefanos to actually attempt to kill Elias.
He used to be fairly promiscuous, like any young Pรณlemesian man would be, constantly flirting with men and women alike, but after the numerous attacks on his and Stefanosโ lives, he changed, no longer flirting or even dancing. He misses dancing, and used to be quite good at it; this skill and grace came in handy when sparring or otherwise fighting.
