Crusader

He can understand a person's emotions through touch, which is why he always shakes hands with Lorgon to understand whether his madness has returned. He also tries to avoid unnecessary contact with strangers.

Lorgon, Runbora, Zhelf, Ennon, Onnun, and Potapych were heading back to the captain's house for further orders after freeing the elves from the church. They were also leading the elves who had previously been held captive by the church. Evilia ran ahead of them, but then they encountered a wounded man in a clearing.

The Elkh are a unique race; they worship a different God, which is why the Church ordered the Crusaders to exterminate them completely. Apparently, they didn't exterminate them all, and the Elkh race remains. It's now in great short supply because they can't undergo the so-called "Great Hibernation." This is the time when they fall asleep, gain strength, and reproduce. During this period, they are unable to move, making them easy prey. They are now searching for a safe place to hibernate. Elkh are also afraid of the cold; it paralyzes them, making the rainy season extremely dangerous for them.

This year it has already ended, but the rainy season is not just a phenomenon, it is revenge, Ivan's curse for the fact that once his brothers died in the Xonian war and then he cursed the entire continent and only he can undo it, but inside him there still lives revenge because of that day, so he is not going to undo it

The filth, that's what they call it. They're not animals, they're creatures not from our world, demons, and it's the Crusaders who kill them. The filth only hunts at night, and also during the rainy season.

The Crusaders are a holy knightly order. They are servants of the Almighty, created by the God of Toads himself to restore order to his world. Crusaders may not pray or attend church; they are not subordinate to the church at all, unlike other orders like the Pantyphus. Crusaders enter any home without an invitation, and kings bow their heads before them. Everyone and everything fears the Crusaders. Crusaders do not age; they look young despite their 400+ years. Every 100 years, their brains "reboot," and they forget everything except the most important things: combat skills, their brothers, duty, honor, and so on. Crusaders can hear the voice of the Almighty, but no one can communicate with it. Crusaders have the right to kill a person and their entire family if they strike them.

The Blood Brotherhood is a brotherhood created from the blood of the High Elves. It is in cahoots with the Church, and it is the Church that supplies them with the blood of the High Elves by killing them. On the forehead of the Blood Brotherhood is a cross, not a gold one like the Crusaders, but a red one. The Blood Brotherhood has the power to create ice that does not melt in any weather or under any influence.

Nicknamed the Mother of the Buried, the goddess of the buried is something akin to a god, only in contrast to God, she is the epitome of all that is dark and evil in this world. A bony scum presumably resembling a human (in theory, she has no appearance at all). Lorgon told the story of how she saved him from death and mitigated the madness of the cross. Using her power, Lorgon was able to coax even the baron's dead servant into speaking, extracting the information he needed.

It is believed that the "Alphabet of God" was created by Ivan and Lorgon. But as Lorgon claims, firstly, he had no part in it, and secondly, the word "invented" is not entirely accurate. The "Alphabet of God" is the Laws of nature (the world) that Ivan learned to change, but not everything can be changed with the "Alphabet of God." With the "Alphabet of God," one can only change what can be changed without intervention by the "Alphabet of God." Also, only Brani can use the Alphabet of God without restrictions.

Full name: Lisa Far Arnelio, age 64, High Elf. An Elf girl, by human standards she appears to be around 20, but her real age is 64 due to the genetic longevity of her race.
In her human form, she is no different from an ordinary human girl with her long white hair and blue eyes, but like all elkh, she has a true form in which she gains fox ears and a tail. Her behavior can vary from case to case, so her character can be called changeable. She is kind, but can also become sarcastic, proud, or impudent. She can be called brave, but her bravery is often indistinguishable from recklessness, which can be attributed to her young age, since by elkh standards she has only just entered adulthood. She has good communication skills, thanks to which she quickly establishes good relationships.

Ennon is a squire, under 40. Ennon has black hair, shaved at the sides, and the rest is pulled back into a ponytail. A thick beard adorns his face. He wears a fur cape, under which is hidden a white shirt, as well as black pants and brown boots. He possesses many positive qualities, such as courage, kindness, and diligence. However, he also has his flaws—he is prone to irascibility and can be lazy at times. Ennon hails from the north, from Rickrich, where he lived with his family in a village. His wife died in childbirth, and later the settlement was attacked by bandits, killing his only daughter. Having lost everything, he became a bandit himself. Previously, he made a living as a charcoal burner, but his fate changed when Lorgon found him. Seeing potential in him, he decided to give Ennon a chance at redemption and took him on as his squire. The Alphabet of God—Lorgon promised to teach him the alphabet. He hasn't yet learned it.
He is skilled in wielding a sword.

Zhelf's full name is Weller, a knight of the Crusader, and his title is "God's Power." Zhelf is estimated to be over two meters tall. He is quite massive and heavy. He wears no clothes. After receiving permission to form the Order of the Crusaders, Ivan and Lorgon were sent to a remote village on a mission to exterminate the filth. Upon arrival, the Crusaders saw mountains of corpses and realized that the village had been invaded by a filthy march. Driven by a sense of vengeance, they hurried on the filth's trail, but began to find remnants of monster bodies, and then saw a single young man single-handedly confronting various forms of filth. The older Crusaders helped the boy fight back, and they began arguing over the boy's fate. Lorgon wanted to make him a Crusader, but the boy was much older than the other candidates, so Ivan resisted. The Supreme Commander himself intervened in the dispute and ordered the crusaders to accept Potapych and Zhelf into the order. Potapych is the squire. He took a vow, so he wears no clothes in either cold or heat. Blessed (Physical Strength) - Zhelf possesses immense physical strength, far exceeding that of other crusaders. While a crusader could lift a medium-sized horse, Zhelf lifted two horses without even feeling their weight. Physical strength is not the power of his cross; it was bestowed upon him from birth. Skin Hardening - Using the power of the cross, Zhelf can harden his skin. Combined with his physical strength, this makes him a powerful close-combat fighter.

Full name: Onnun Weller, a knight of the Crusader, title: "God's Wrath." He has dark hair and blue eyes that turn red when enraged, and can turn black when extremely angry. He wears a gray, torn shirt and black pants. His body is covered with numerous scars. He is known for his kindness, second only to Brani, yet he is the most fierce of all the members of the Crusader Order, as evidenced by his title "God's Wrath." He has taken a vow of silence to accumulate the power of the cross and honor the Supreme Being.

Brani's full name is Weller, a knight of the Crusade, and his title is "Healer of God." He is tall, has a chestnut beard, and brown eyes. A golden cross—the symbol of the Crusaders—is visible on his forehead. Brani wears a gray T-shirt, greenish pants, and brown shoes. Various herbs are attached to his belt, and he carries a pouch on his back. Brani is known as the kindest of the Crusaders. His kindness knows no bounds, but he refuses to speak ill of his order. Brani is rather shy, and when praised, he asks others not to. He constantly compares himself to Iglik, saying that, unlike him, Brani is stupid. He also never holds a grudge. He supposedly took a vow that no one can refuse him treatment. The price for healing abilities is intelligence - Brani may appear feeble-minded, but this is only an effect imposed by the vow. Medicine is perhaps the best healer in the entire world. Brani often says his name before starting a sentence, for example, "Brani is glad you are alive."

Full name: Igomond Weller, age unknown, knight crusader, title: "God's hater," nickname: "Father of the Plague." He appears to be around 60-70 years old. Within the walls of his church, he dresses in traditional clerical vestments, but when going out into the world, he dons all-black clothing and a plague doctor's mask. Igomond is quite kind, and has his own church where he guides people to the true path. He is the most feared knight of the order. Not because of his martial prowess, but because his blood harbors every conceivable disease and can cause the death of all living things. For this same reason, even the filthiest creatures leave him untouched.

He is the most secretive knight of the Crusaders, according to a member of the Plague Heralds who was keeping tabs on him. Before his arrival, the area is prepared to prevent him from getting hurt.

Full name: Iglik Weller, age unknown, a knight of the crusader, title: Mind of God. He has dark hair and expressive turquoise eyes. Dark tones predominate in his appearance: he wears a patterned leather cloak under a red jacket, light gray pants, and black shoes. Iglik is an outstanding intellectual, possessing a rich vocabulary and a penchant for complex formulations. He has dedicated his life to the study and systematization of knowledge, especially in the field of dangerous creature research. His main contribution is the compilation of bestiaries, in which he describes in detail the abominations he has discovered. Iglik, like all other knights, masters the alphabet of God.
Artifact Creation - Can create artifacts. Two books that allow 'correspondence' over any distance are his creation.
Gravity Control - Allows Iglik to increase gravity in a specific area. Which he used against an unknown abomination.
Possesses all knowledge - the Iglik cross gives him access to all knowledge, including knowledge about the future and parallel worlds.

Full name: Zegel Weller, age unknown, Knight Crusader, title: God's Power. He appears to be a middle-aged man with black hair, gray eyes, and pale skin. Unlike other Knight Crusaders, he has two crosses on his forehead instead of one. His attire resembles royal robes, predominantly dark colors, and a black crown crowns his head. He is very proud, domineering, and despotic. Nevertheless, he holds his brothers in the highest regard. After receiving his first cross, Lorgon and Ivan realized that Zegel's power was excessive—he possessed the ability to bend others' wills. They feared that such power would corrupt him, turning him into an arrogant and cruel man. According to Lorgon, arrogance has indeed become a trait of his, but cruelty has never manifested itself in him—he always leaves people free to choose. Initially, his powers were insufficient to help his siblings, so a second cross was carved into him. This greatly enhanced his abilities, granting him the ability to absorb madness from his siblings. Subjugation is the ability to subjugate the will of others.
Madness Control - Helps suppress the madness of other Crusader Knights.
Cross Power - Zegel has the least amount of cross power that can affect the body.

Runbor's full name is Weller, his estimated age is 400 years old, and he holds the title "God's Will"—a knight of the Crusaders. His exact age is unknown, but he appears to be a man in his 30s. He has dark hair tied back in a ponytail, piercing blue eyes, and distinctive facial tattoos indicating his descent from one of the Xon clans. A cross is emblazoned on his forehead. His wardrobe is predominantly practical: he wears a white shirt tucked into dark blue pants, with a long cape of the same color over it. Runbor is a steadfast and determined warrior who combines a sense of duty with empathy. Despite the harsh life of a Crusader, he cares for his loved ones and carefully analyzes his actions. Order, self-control, and deliberate decision-making are important to him. However, his commitment to his own beliefs can be both his strength and his weakness, as he rarely deviates from his chosen path, even when it works against him. He was found as a child by Ivan and Lorgon during a period when tensions between the Xon and the Crusaders began to subside. They took him under their wing, teaching him the principles of honor, strength, and the pursuit of peace. Lorgon played a key role in his destiny, becoming his mentor. But Ivan became his brother in arms. Over time, Runbora embraced the faith of the Supreme One and joined the ranks of the Crusaders, dedicating his life to protecting the weak and fighting for justice. He is a skilled swordsman. He wields two unconventional swords to a high standard.
He can change the properties of objects. Runbora can turn the entire earth into gas/steam, but he can't do so because the cross's recoil would instantly kill him. He can turn stone into water—the stone will look like stone, but have the properties of water. He can turn stone into wood, as he did when he helped Lorgon, and turned most of the church into wood to speed up the burning.

Ivan is one of the eldest brothers of the Crusaders. He is the captain of the order, holding the title of "God's Executioner," capable of balancing the power of the cross, for which he was chosen to this position. He raised the remaining 17 children along with Lorgon and a third, currently unknown brother. He is over 600 years old, and his full name is Ivan Weller; only he can use his full name. His nickname is "Red-Eyed Ivan." After the order's dissolution, Ivan retired from combat and lived a solitary life. However, fate brought him together with Lysa, a representative of the elves. Ivan possesses an inner strength that allows him to contain his darkness, unlike Lorgon, who is unable to resist its influence. Any divine power exerts pressure on the mind, and Ivan is no exception. Any power emanating from the cross inevitably results in madness. He is one of the few who can perfectly balance the boundary between madness and reality. It was thanks to this ability that he took the place of captain of the order. He is bound by a vow that forbids him from taking the lives of others.
However, this prohibition doesn't apply to filth. Strength—Ivan has the power to balance madness, which is why he became captain. No stronger than Lorgon, you idiots.
The Alphabet of God - possesses the alphabet, which allows him to carry out all possible manipulations with reality and even violate the laws of the universe.
An example is the rainy season, as well as the ability to materialize one's reflection into an independent person.
Emotional Sensitivity is the ability to sense the emotions of others when interacting with an entity. This ability can help one determine whether a being is lying or telling the truth.
Time Stop - allows him to stop time, however, this ability does not last more than a few seconds, but perhaps if he trains it, he will be able to stop time for, for example, a minute, but this ability takes a huge amount of strength. Space - Ivan's power allows him to separate some objects from others, from each other. Movement - Ivan can move between points using

Swordsmanship - A master swordsman, he describes himself as "the best swordsman on the continent", despite this, he made a vow not to touch the sword due to the situation in the city when, in a fit of madness, he killed everyone and almost killed his own brother.
Delusion is a power that even Lorgon himself hasn't fully explored. It allows one to cast illusions, but as the experiment with the stick and illusory sword showed, they can also affect real objects, so further study is required.
Immortality - Due to his strange relationship with the Goddess of the Buried, he became immortal.
Speak with the Dead - An ability gained through his connection with the Goddess of the Buried, he can temporarily summon the souls of the dead from the other side of life for questioning.
The alphabet of God - in his own words: almost a complete zero, but enough for hunting.

His full name is Lorgon Weller, but only the captain of the order, Ivan, is allowed to use his last name. He is 600 years old and goes by the nickname "Immortal Lorgon." He is a Crusader, holds the title "Warrior of God," and is the second-in-command of the Holy Knightly Order of the Crusaders. Lorgon appears to be a young man in his 20s or 30s, with ash-blond hair and piercing blue eyes that turn black during moments of intense emotion. His appearance is completed by a long red coat reminiscent of Dante's from Devil May Cry, over a black shirt, black pants, and a belt with a gold ring. In his Death Knight form, he has black hair and eyes, and his entire attire becomes pitch black. Lorgon is a true warrior, ready to judge without hesitation those he believes to be against the will of the Supreme Being. However, he is not without the ability to forgive if he sees genuine remorse. His views on the elves remain contradictory: on the one hand, he views them as enemies, but on the other, he is capable of judging them by their actions, not just their origins. Despite his sternness, Lorgon displays a sense of humor in informal settings and remains loyal to his comrades, regardless of their race. He also has an unexpected hobby: collecting beetles, his collection numbers over 120 specimens. Lorgon became a crusader a day after Ivan. During one battle, he fell into a frenzy and committed a massacre in Monthart, for which he was killed by his own brother. However, he was later resurrected by the Goddess of the Buried, as she was pleased by the carnage he had caused, and since then they have maintained a special, strange bond. He also vowed never to change his clothes, preferring to care for them himself, which has become a symbol of his devotion and strength. His clothes can also regenerate, even if completely destroyed. and also vowed never to pick up a sword again. From that moment on, he never picked up a sword.
