Ivan Weiler

Description: • The Order of the Crusaders is an elite and powerful military-religious organization of humanity, subordinate to the Holy Church. Composition and structure: • The order has about 200 servants, but there are significantly fewer full-fledged knights-crusaders. -> Captain - Ivan Weller, leader of the order. -> Deputy captain - Lorgon (there were two, but the second is already dead). -> Knights - Onnun, Patifar, Liaf (and +14 knights). -> Squires are young apprentices undergoing training (for example, Ennon is Lorgon's squire). Strength and features: • Sacred Blood: The Crusaders draw their fighting power from the blood of the god of men, the Supreme. It grants them superhuman endurance, regeneration, and the ability to use the "power of the cross" against creatures. • Blind Devotion: Initially, members of the order fanatically and ruthlessly carried out any orders of the Church, including the complete destruction of other peaceful races (such as the elves). They no longer do this. Influence: • Each member of the order has enormous influence, despite the fact that they were disbanded. Kings bow their heads before them.

Main races: • Xons: -> Appearance: They look very similar to humans. -> Main difference: Colored tattoos on the faces. -> Culture: Pagans, worship idols and ancestor cults. -> Clans: The color of the facial tattoo directly indicates the Xon's affiliation with a particular clan. • Trash (Creatures) -> Nature: Monsters and dangerous beasts. -> Behavior: Aggressive creatures that fear holy powers. -> Record-keeping: Each creature has its own name and is entered into a special bestiary by the knights to study its weak points. -> Enemies: Primary target for destruction by the Crusaders, Dawnguard and Dawn Knights orders. • People -> Role: The dominant and most aggressive race in the known world. -> Religion: Worship a deity known as the Supreme. -> Power: Use the sacred blood of their god to imbue chosen warriors with the power of the cross and transform them into Crusaders (no longer practiced) -> Politics: Through the institutions of the Holy Church, they wage a total war against evil spirits and exterminate other races (for example, the elves).

Definition: • The Elhi are an ancient, half-beast race of beings closely connected to the forces of nature and the forest. Main features of the race: • Origin and connection with nature: According to the lore of the universe, the elves arose in the very "heart of the forest." They are highly sensitive, have a proud disposition, and are capable of deep empathy with the world around them. • Appearance and biology: These are humanoids with distinct animal-like features (for example, fox ears or a tail). They have innate longevity. By human standards, a representative of the race may look like a young man or woman of 20 years old, but their real age may exceed 60–70 years. • Edge of Extinction: By the time the films take place, the elven population has been nearly wiped out. The main culprits behind their disappearance were humans—particularly the Holy Church, which relentlessly hunted, persecuted, and exterminated them as "impure-blooded" creatures.

Spatial abilities: • Tree Teleport: Enters the trunk of one tree and instantly exits another anywhere in the world through a shared root system. • Full Flight: Completely defies gravity, capable of high-speed flight and aerial maneuvering. Physical parameters: • Colossal Durability: Withstands critical damage that would be fatal to an ordinary person or mob. • Superhuman Strength: Easily defeats groups of strong opponents in close combat. Combat potential: • Absolute Dominance: Possesses the power of an elder Child of God, making him biologically stronger than the other Crusaders. • Master of Genocide: Physiologically adapted for war, capable of single-handedly exterminating entire hostile races.

Storage system and "junk": • Piles of Chests and Barrels: The main interior detail. Chests are stacked on top of each other, in rows along the walls and in corners. They are filled with household resources, tools, old boards, leather, coal, torches, and the remains of camping gear. • Scattered Items: Blocks of rough wood, cobblestone, and crafting items can be found along the walls and on the floor. The passages between them are quite narrow. Architecture and light: • Materials: The walls and floor are made of solid wood blocks (spruce and dark oak), and the area around the stove is reinforced with stone for safety. • Lighting: Rough and sparse. Single torches or lanterns suspended from the ceiling beams illuminate the mountains of crates, which always casts deep shadows in the corners of the floor. • Upstairs: A massive wooden staircase leads to a cleaner and more comfortable second floor, where the sleeping area and kitchen are located. • There is a storage room in which Ivan does not remember what is there and what he used it for.

Kitchen area: • Furnishings: A compact hermit's culinary nook. It contains barrels and chests for storing provisions (dried meat, bread, roots) and a workbench adapted for a cutting table. • Stove: The kitchen's focal point is a stone stove or regular stove. It's mounted against the wall and serves two functions: it cooks modest meals and heats the entire attic house on cold nights. A decorative chimney extends from it, extending through the sloping roof to the outside. Sleeping area: • Furnishings: Ivan's personal resting space. The center of the area is a single bed covered with a wool blanket. Nearby stands an armor rack (or chest), where he keeps his clothing during quiet moments, as well as a small stand with a light source (torch or lantern). • The bedroom and the rest of the room are separated by white curtains. Near the stove there is a hidden room that can be entered if you know the password. The entrance to the hidden room is under the cross. Hidden room: • The hidden room is quite small. Inside, the walls are made of stone, and the floor and ceiling are wooden. On the wall farthest from the entrance, there are nine symbols. In front of these symbols is a small stone, above which floats Ivan's sword.

• Ivan's house resembles a medieval watchtower from the outside, built of dark oak and cobblestone. The walls are rough, with exposed beams, and covered in ivy here and there. The roof is peaked, made of dark boards, with a small chimney from which a light smoke curls. • On the first floor is a massive oak door with iron hinges, next to a pair of loophole windows. The second floor is slightly wider than the first, overhanging it, with wooden supports. At eye level is a small window with shutters. • The house is surrounded by stunted grass and a few bushes. It sits on a hill, next to a forest. It looks rugged and substantial, but without any frills—pure medieval survival.

To friends and associates: • Towards his subordinates and knights: Ivan treats them as a strict, demanding commander. He keeps his distance, does not tolerate weakness, and demands perfect discipline, but he sincerely cares for their lives and deeply honors the memory of the fallen. • To Lorgon: This is the most complex and close relationship of his life. Ivan sees Lorgon not only as a loyal deputy, but also as an equal in strength. Despite frequent conflicts, disagreements, and harshness in communication, Ivan feels a deep hidden affection for him. To Elham: • In the past - as enemies and cattle: During the protracted war, Ivan treated the elves solely as a demonic threat and pests. He mercilessly exterminated them in order to protect human lands, almost completely wiping this race off the face of the earth. • In the present - repentance and compassion: After the war ended, his views changed. Realizing the cruelty of his past actions, he went into seclusion.

• Outerwear: Ivan wears a sturdy leather jacket of a dark (black or brown) color. It serves as protection for him during travel and combat. Base: Underneath the jacket, he wears a simple white country t-shirt (or loose shirt). This emphasizes his humble lifestyle in the forest after the Order's disbandment. • Bottom: The character wears practical black pants. • Footwear: The look is completed with chunky black boots, suitable for long journeys and combat conditions.

Key points: • Hair: Ivan has black hair, but some gray is showing through. • Eyes: Bright orange • Headdress: The main distinguishing detail is the bright red headband, under which a cross is hidden. • Scars: Unlike the ordinary knights of the Order, whose wounds heal without leaving a trace thanks to divine regeneration, Ivan (like Lorgon) intentionally left scars on his body. They serve as a sign of respect for fallen comrades and a reminder of past battles.

Key points: • Devotion to Duty: Duty to the gods and the Order always comes first for him. He is willing to sacrifice personal desires and peace for the sake of protecting his world. • Strictness and authority: As captain, Ivan demands iron discipline from his subordinates. He can be stern and does not forgive weaknesses, as lives depend on the actions of the knights. • Cool-headed and decisive: In moments of danger, he does not panic. He is capable of making tough, but necessary tactical decisions right on the battlefield. • Hidden Emotionality: Behind the exterior of a steadfast and cold warrior lies a strong attachment to his comrades. This is especially evident in his complex relationship with Lorgon. Ivan takes losses hard, though he tries not to show it. • Pride and Faith in Righteousness: Due to his immense strength and divine blessing, Ivan is absolutely certain that he is right. This belief sometimes makes him overly stubborn in his judgments.
