Hrathen was a graduate of [[Ghajan Monastery]],{{book ref|Elantris|36}} and rose quickly in the ranks of the priesthood. His talent for public speaking made him an invaluable tool of [[Wyrn (title)|Wyrn]] [[Wulfden the Fourth]] in his attempt to conquer the world through the spread of the Derethi religion. Hrathen's particular talent lay in destroying the kingdoms of those who did not convert, and he had a hand in both the destruction of the [[Duladel Republic]],{{book ref|Elantris|9}} and the simultaneous invasion of [[Arelon]] and [[Teod]]. During the invasion of Teod, he came to a full awareness of Wyrn's corruption of Shu-Dereth, and was instrumental in stopping the complete destruction of both kingdoms. Unfortunately, his efforts to save Princess [[Sarene]] resulted in his death at the hands of [[Dilaf]] and [[Fjon]].{{book ref|Elantris|62}} For his efforts, he was buried with the rest of the heroes of the battle just outside of [[Elantris (city)|Elantris]].{{book ref|Elantris|epilogue}}
 
== Attributes & Abilites ==
Due to his training in various monasteries, Hrathen is a skilled unarmed combatant, capable of disarming a seasoned soldier and disabling several attackers with ease. His official gyorn's set of full plate armor, unlike that of many of his colleagues, was fully functional, and since he wore it at all times he was in public--most of his waking hours--he was in excellent physical condition.
 
Hrathen is also a talented speaker and strategist, capable of winning people to his cause and accurately predicting his opponents’ motives and creating potent counters to such moves.
 
Hrathen's only power linked to the Dor is a bone in his forearm, the only remnant of being trained at the Dakhor monastery, although the abilities of this bone are not extensively revealed, it was shown to be practically indestructible and granted him the strength to break the neck of a full Dakhor monk.{{book ref|Elantris|62}}
 
== History ==
=== Legacy ===
Hrathen's body was ferried back to Elantris and buried in the memorial barrows for heroes who fell during Fjordell's invasion. He was buried alongside Eondel, Karata, Saolin and Roial with his bloodred armour stacked alongside it and his cape draped over his sword. His funeral was performed last. Sarene speaks at his funeral saying that she thought she understood the man as her enemy by his sense of duty, his powerful will and his determination to save people through religion but she had no knowledge of his internal conflict or that he'd place the lives of everyone else over his own ambitions and how if it hadn't been for him then Dilaf would have killed both her and Raoden. She implores the people to remember Hrathen not as their enemy but as their saviour.
