Tiberian Arelius, the Storm King, Patriarch of House Arelius, was a Monarch on the Path of the Raging Sky and ruler of over half of the Rosegold continent. Approximately eight years before the 18th Uncrowned King Tournament Tiberian was slain in battle by the most-proximal ruler, Reigan Shen. In the aftermath, most of the Rosegold continent was devastated and House Arelius was left in ruins. Tiberian’s Remnant still remains, intact.

Appearance

A man with short, blond hair and a cropped golden beard sat behind a desk, speaking to the person leaving the memory. There were few thoughts attached to it, only his appearance and his words. -Reaper, Chapter 2

Personality

As a young sacred artist, Tiberian was known for his hard work and diligence mastering his techniques. Simultaneously humble to his superiors, and merciful to his inferiors, Tiberian grew into his power to become a wise and beneficent ruler of his half of the Rosegold continent. He was also a learner throughout life. His research led to a treatment for healing a mangled spirit, The Pure Storm Baptism.

Death

More than 6 years before Wei Shi Lindon Arelius left Sacred Valley with Yerin Arelius, Tiberian had in his employ a young prodigy of his family, Eithan Arelius. Impressed after Eithan successfully infiltrated the Arelius progenitor's tomb, Tiberian made the young Arelius one of his most trusted advisors. Upon being convinced that the threat of the Dreadgods needed to be eliminated once and for all, Tiberian approached his primary neighbor and rival Monarch of the Rosegold continent, Reigan Shen (against Eithan’s advice). Shen killed Tiberian.

Tiberian’s dream was to rid the world of the Dreadgods.” Yerin’s eyebrows raised, but Lindon wasn’t too surprised. He suspected she wasn’t either. The Arelius crest on the sealed hand implied as much. “We found a method of doing so, and I encouraged him to pursue the cooperation of the other Monarchs,” Eithan said with a sigh. “He insisted on starting with Reigan Shen. Against my advice, might I add. You can usually count on Monarchs to avoid open conflict, both because there is rarely a definitive winner and because there are usually several million definitive losers. “Reigan Shen struck back almost immediately. In the end, Tiberian was not his match.” (Reaper, ch 16)
