Telrii is a nobleman in Arelon on Sel. He made a deal with Fjorden to become King of Arelon, but was killed shortly after ascending to the throne.

Appearance and Personality

Telrii is lean and has a strong posture and a stately air. He is bald, and a massive purple birthmark sits across the left side of his face and neck. He might have been handsome, but he wore a plethora of jewelry and garish clothing (often decorated with embroidery or gemstones), making him look pompous.

He is quite a frivolous spender with poor financial sense. He prefers to have servants do his work for him, and enjoys lounging about while surrounded by exotic foods and goods. He is known to be thirsty for power, and people generally assume that money is his largest motivator. However, he is not quite as single minded as he seems. He is unpredictable and just wily enough to conceal his true intentions, although he may not be quite smart enough to understand all of the repercussions of his actions.

History

The only reason he managed to attain such a high rank of duke and a great amount of personal wealth in the first place is due to inheriting his brother's estate upon the latter's death, his brother having been a much better merchant.

He had one daughter, Soine, who had never grown out any hair and thus he had a blonde wig made for her. When the Shaod took her over two years before Sarene's arrival in Arelon, he covered it up, instead claiming that she had died due to an illness known as dionia.

Raoden never cared much for Telrii, having once invited him to join his group of conspirators only for Telrii to yawn casually and ask him how much he was willing to pay for his support.

He ascended to the Arelene throne after King Iadon's death, and conspired with the Derethi for monetary support in exchange for his support in converting Arelon.

When Sarene began her incursions into Elantris to hand out food, Telrii joined but made no effort to do any work himself, instead bringing along a manservant.

By the Time of Iadon's death, Telrii had become the second richest man in Arleon through Hrathen's financial aid, and would there by become the next King. To prevent this, Princess Sarene and Duke Roial wanted to marry in order to unite their fortunes and surpass Telrii's own. But their plan was foiled by Hrathen, who administered a poison to Sarene that mimicked the effects of the Shaod. Thus Sarene was tossed into Elantris and Telrii became King of Arleon.

However upon taking the throne, Telrii decided to renege on the deal with Hrathen, refusing to officially convert to Shu-Dereth unless made into a gyorn; otherwise he would be under the whims of any Derethi priest, and he knew a gyorn would be considered higher than even a monarch. At that time Count Ahan made Telrii an offer to betray his fellow conspirators. Telrii led his soldiers to Kiin's house and planned to kill everyone inside, even though he had promised Ahan that he would only imprison them. The soldiers killed Roial, but then Raoden, who was believed dead, intervened and caused Telrii and his men to flee.

Telrii was killed by Eondel just before the invasion of Arelon, in retaliation for the death of Roial.
