Character history: It was during the Great War with the Overlanders that Elias was lost. Queen Alicia Acorn, Elias, and a troop of soldiers from the Royal Guard, led by Sir Ian St. John, were en route to the last save haven on Mobius: Angel Island. Unfortunately as they made their way to the island a patrol of Overlanders attacked their transport. Kind Acorn feared his wife and son were dead and never told Sally the truth to spare her. The truth was Elias had survived and so did the Queen. They were discovered by the Brotherhood of Guardians. The Queen was comatose, Elias was largely unharmed, and the one surviving member of the troop was Colonel Sommersby who had survived.
The Guardians left the Colonel at the Mobian Embassy compound while the Guardians took in Elias and raised him until he was ten. They then send him to live at the compound with the Colonel and his wife. The Queen in the mean time was kept safe in a cryogenic stasis tube in Haven until she could be rejuvenated.
It was after Elias was sent to the compound that King Acorn heard word that Alicia and Elias could still be alive. He dispatched the Secret Service to Angel Island. They met the Brotherhood and Knuckles the Echidna who took them to meet Elias and the Comatose Queen. Elias returned with the Secret Service to discover he was the firstborn male and he would inherit the throne from his Father. He was unsure of his new role in the world and found becoming King really held no interest to him. Instead he decided to concentrate on making up for lost time with his family.
It was during this time he built a strong connection to Sally rather quickly. Elias was then put in charge after his father was injured during an assault on Robotropolis. Inexperienced and desperate, he turned to Geoffrey St. John for advice. Unfortunately, thanks to Geoffrey's biased decisions against the Freedom Fighters and a number of near catastrophes brought on by Elias' hesitant rule during his Father's coma weighed heavily. Luckily they were averted by Sonic and the Freedom Fighters but only just. The young prince felt unworthy to rule and in shame he fled Knothole to start a new life.
It was during this time Elias lived in Feral Forest as a woodsman. He met and married Megan and became the father of her child. Elias' self-imposed exile lasted for a while until it would come to an end when he was once again found by the Secret Service AND the forces of Eggman. He was forced to tell Megan the truth about who he was. Fortunately he and his family were saved by the Freedom Fighters just in time. He was able to at least reconcile with his family after he ran away bur he decided to remain absent from royal affairs due to his feelings of inadequacy. It was over a year later that Sonic came to him and begged for his help after Sally was married by the scheming Patch. Elias returned to claim his birthright. Patch, attempted to poison Elias after his plans were ruined but was stopped and exposed by Sonic. After he assumed his title; King Elias annulled Sally's marriage.
After taking the throne again for their once again incapacitated father, Elias found himself inheriting a number of problems; namely the horde of Metal Sonic Troopers that were build to replace Sonic during the year they believed he was dead. Of course the Metal Sonic Troopers began to rampage through Knothole. After weathering the crisis, Elias took part in Sonic's first birthday following his return and the party was held in the newly refurbished Freedom HQ. The party was unfortunately crashed by Eggman and other disturbances, Elias joined the battle for the Source of All as Mammoth Mogul and Ixis Naugus attempted to lay claim to it. Even though he fought bravely, Elias proved unable to contribute much and even failed to cleanse the Crown of Acorns from Mogul's magical taint.
Elias's first known pleasant duty as King was when he was able to preside over the wedding of Bunny Rabbot and Antoine D'Coolette. Unfortunately after this another blow was struck to Elias' already shaky confidence when Eggman was able to destroy Knothole and captured almost all of its inhabitants. Elias and the others were imprisoned in the Egg Grape Chambers where Eggman proceeded to mock Elias' ability to lead and the Acorn monoarchy. Before he could put the chambers to work however, the Mobians were rescued by Sonic, Knuckles, Amy, Tails, and NICOLE. They then took residence in the city of New Mobotropolis and Elias remained determined to carry on his duties.
Opposition of his rule came again from Amadeus Prower, Tails' Father and general of the Knothole army. After having seen how badly the House of Acorn had preformed in their duties over the past three generations Amadeus and his wife Rosemary decided that it was time for Elias to step down and a new government to be installed. Elias had Amadeus arrested for leading a mob towards the castle but afterward his own doubts began to grow. He confronted the General in his cell and listened to his criticism of his rule and left with even more doubts than before.
Max, having recovered from his poisoning thanks to the powers of a Chaos Emerald, expected Elias to hold rigidly to his own ideals and didn't make things any easier on his son. After being riled up by his Father's stubborn ideals, Elias decided he had to fight for the monarchy his family and friends have given so much for. He allowed Amadeus to reach him after he broke out of prison and challenged him to a duel. The fight lasted only a short time before Sally intervened and convinced her brother and the general there was a peaceful resolution to their problems. They both agreed and together drew up the plans for the Council of Acorn; a new ruling body that would include seven members, the current monarch and six publicly elected representatives. Elias lost some power to the people but the Kingdom retained its traditional monarchy. Max was not pleased with the outcome of the deliberations but Alicia encouraged her son to carry on and hoped her husband would see the wisdom of the idea.
The newly formed Council would be tested with the emergence of the new Enerjak. They recognized Enerjak as a threat but did not wish to act until they had more information. They did give Sally command of the Freedom Fighters, however. Unfortunatey their inaction left New Mobotropolis vulnerable as Enerjak went unopposed on Angel Island. He arrived in the city and easily defeated the defenders.
The Enerjak crisis was soon dealt with thanks to the combined efforts of Super Sonic, Juilie-Su, Locke, and Archimedes. It would only be weeks later that there was another conflict as Scourge arrived with his Suppression Squad took over Freedom HQ. Elias felt strongly that Freedom HQ should be retaken the majority of the council felt dealing with the weakened Eggman Empire was the more pressing matter. Sonic defied this order and Sally took responsibility. Elias took part in the disciplinary hearing held against her. However, thanks to her inspiring words the majority of the Council voted to drop all charges against her. Later elias ws among the first to hear that the Iron Dominion had taking over the Eggman Empire and quickly moved to assemble the Council. The entire group was then treated to a report from Sonic concerning the status of the city and the betrayal of Espio.
New Mobotropolis was taken over by the Iron Queen and the Council captured. Sonic, Sally, and Tails escaped and set out to break the Queen's connections in the Land of Dragons. The were able to do so and returned to defeat the Queen. It was then the Council retook power but the people grew afraid of NICOLE and the Nanomites and it was the opening evil had been looking for.
Thanks to the betrayal and actions of Geoffery St. John, he was able to recover a Chaos Emerald and took it to the less-than-lucis Ixis Naugus and returned him to sanity. Naugus himself then appeared before the Council of Acorn and demanded they make him King as he claimed he had the true right to the crown. He claimed Max had made a deal with him while they were both imprisoned in the Zone of Silence. Elias refused by saying he had inherited the crown when his father was unable to rule and did not intend to turn it over to the being that caused his father much suffering. The arguments were interrupted by Sonic, who faced Naugus in battle with Elias himself giving Sonic the Sword of Light.
During the fight, Naugus gained the upper hand against Sonic and Elias jumped in, taking the Sword of Light and dueled against the Wizard himself. He was able to hold his own for a while before being subdued. Naugus stopped the fight and gently asked Elias to step down and retake his life before the crown. The councilors and Sonic were arguing about the next course of action thanks to Naugus's magic. Elias asked Naugus if he would honor the Council of Acorn should he step down and Naugus agreed he would respect the people's wishes. Sonic interrupted and wanted to finish his battle with Naugus but Elias stopped him, saying they would settle this peacefully. Sonic was in disbelief but before Elias could reprimand him further the ground began to shake and they all witnessed the raise of the new Death Egg.
After the Death Egg retreated thanks to Sonic and Sally's action, Naugus approached Elias and requested the crown. Sonic interrupted again and desperately tried to tell the people that the wizard was a villain. Unfortunately after learning of Sally's recent Robotization, Elias was send into a downward emotional spiral which Naugus capitalized on and used it as an example that Elias was not fit to rule. In that moment of shock and confusion, Geoffrey snatched the crown from Elias' head and placed it on Naugus'. The change of power was instantly accepted by the people and Elias was dethroned.
Elias' power as a council member was in question when the citizens refused to listen to him during the Battle Bird Armada's attack on the city. He was able to retain some power of authority over the Royal Guard as they kept Geoffrey cuffed for trail during the evacuation. Elias turned his attention on rebuilding after the attack and found Councilor Rotor shared his concern about the public's lack of discretion towards their choice of leadership.
Elias soon decided the city was no longer safe for his family now that Naugus was in charge. He could not convince his parent to move to Feral Forest with him and it greatly stressed him. He was at a loss and feeling his family would always be in danger he sought help from Harvey Who to help him reclaim the throne. Harvey at first refused Elias but after Elias proved he was dedicated to his cause, Harvey agreed to help. He was advised to continue his plans to leave while Harvey assembled a covert team of Freedom Fighters to help him once he sneaked back into the city. It was during his farewell Eggman attacked and Antoinie saved Elias and his family by attacking Metal Sonic by himself. The robot self-destructed in his face and was left barely alive. Elias was told to continue on with his escape and not to turn back, though knowing one of his friends had done such a thing for him had wounded him greatly.
Character personality: One of the things that makes Elias himself is his strong moral compass. He has always had a strong feeling of right and wrong and uses it to drive many of his decisions. He isn't one for dishonesty and his drive as a ruler is what is best for his people. He's never been one for the pursuit of power and more the pursuit of justice. It is this compass that has also lead him to want the respect from people, especially his father, and why he is such a harsh judge of himself. He knows what is right but because of his need to be validated as a good ruler it makes him hesitant.
This hesitance is what leads to his lack of self-esteem. He has problems with doubting himself and second guessing his decisions. This lack of confidence in himself leads him to seeking help form outside sources and unfortunately they aren't always in the best places i.e. Geoffrey St. John. This may have been the reason he was able to accept the idea of the council as he did. It allowed him to surround himself with advisers who had the same goals as he did and people to bounce his ideas off of. Unfortunately, with his own power decreased he still found himself and his ideas being hesitant.
While his moral compass he shares with his sister, he also got his father's temper. Elias is quick to anger and once he holds a grudge he isn't one to let it go easily. He is also stubborn and with the quick temper it makes him one to resort to blades rather than discussion, unlike Sally. This part of him has subsided some but it is still there and is obvious in his actions; such as dueling Amadeus and attacking Ixis on his own in the council room.
Overall Elias is a good King because of his lack of want of power and his moral compass but unfortunately due to his anger and his hesitation it keeps him from being a great King. If he could overcome the self-doubts and the anger he could be a very effective leader of his people but until he does he will simply be a good King, not a great one.
Digimon partner personality: PawnChessmon (White) is a quiet calm digimon on the surface. He thinks things through before acting and prefers to think out his moves well before engaging in batte. He is always thinking ahead which hinders him in the here and now. He is a calculating digimon and is always looking for ways to come out on top. This gives him a bit of a gray moral standing overall. He is willing to sacrifice things and even people in his quest for gain. He wants to be powerful, to be a strong piece on the board and with Elias as his partner, he will help lead him in the direction he thinks will be the more beneficial to them both power-wise. To him strength comes first and then one can get the other things in life one wants. Power equals opportunity for this digimon and with an ex-King as a Tamer he sees this is finally his chance to gain the power he's always wanted.
Character abilities: Elias is a good fighter and skilled in martial arts. He can fight hand to hand though his main weapon is a set of exotic daggers with strange handles that run parallel to the blades. His weapon set allows him to fight effectively against longer bladed weapons. He is also able to use standard blades, though not nearly as skilled as his daggers. Elias is an effective melee fighter and can hold his own though he is not nearly as skilled as the Freedom Fighters or the Chaotix. Elias is also an effective tactician and a skilled leader. He can be very charismatic when he wants to be and believes in himself. His leadership skills are unfortunately still inexperienced and could use more sharpening. He is willing to sacrifice things for his people and those he holds charge over. He could lead a small group fairly well as long as his confidence would hold up though when he is fighting by himself he is far more effective thanks to not needing to watch out for others.
