Editing Lumineth Realm-Lords (section)

==History==
===Origins/Age of Myth===
Once upon a time, [[Teclis]], [[Tyrion]], and [[Malekith|Malerion]] found a previously assumed dead [[Morathi]] who was very much alive, who then led the odd trio to the morbidly obese [[Slaanesh]] in a cave where they beat the shit out of him until he coughed up all of the Elven souls he had consumed after [[The End Times]]. A good chunk of these souls were given to Teclis, in order to recreate the High Elves of old and bring their race back to their former glory. The initial race that came from Teclis's attempts were the [[Idoneth Deepkin]] and, well... [[FAIL|He tried]].

This new batch of Aelves seem to have come out of the oven much better, far more sane and stable than any other Aelf so far. Given the Idoneth's hostile estrangement from Teclis while the Lumineth worship and fight side-by-side with him, relations between the two are... strange. The Idoneth Deepkin are their only ally option, while in the Allegiance Matrix for multiplayer games in the General's Handbook they are listed as a Desperate Coalition (to put that in perspective, that's worse than the relationship between Khorne/Slaanesh or Tzeentch/Nurgle and is the only Desperate Coalition that isn't between factions from two entirely separate Grand Alliances. Even Drycha the crazy, genocidal racist can act nicer to other factions). Best explanation is that they do utterly despise each other, but realize there are WAY bigger threats to their own societies, so they grudgingly tolerate each other for now.

Anyways after their initial inception they went on to colonize all parts of the realm of Hysh. After learning how to utilize the native realmstone Aetherquartz to help Lumineth society grow into one of if not the most advanced and grand civilization in all the realms, with art, architecture and learning being the envy of many other civilizations. Lumineth society was built on self-improvement, absurdly impractical headgear and the accumulation of wisdom, fueled by the power of collected Aetherquartz crystals to amplify their bodies and minds. They however, in the typical elven arrogance, assumed that because Slaanesh was imprisoned they no longer had to worry about Chaos and decided to abuse the Aetherquartz like [[Skaven]] to [[Warpstone]], leading them to be the butt of many jokes about drugs (especially Crystal Meth).

===Age of Chaos===
Unfortunately for the Lumineth, in conjunction with the elves' own hubris, Tyrion and Teclis were very hands-off about godhood after the civilization was built. As a result, the subtle whispers of the Dark Gods entered their minds, causing envy and bitter rivalry. The subsequent campaigns of defamation and sabotage culminated in a massive civil war called the Ocari Dara, or Spirefall. The entire realm of Hysh was devastated, as the Lumineth had a habit of inventing uber-spells and doomsday devices just to see if they could, justifying it by claiming they were too enlightened to ever use such weapons for evil (which they obviously weren't). To make matters worse, the overflow of passion, pride and obsession from the war became a beacon for Slaaneshi daemons, who then invaded Hysh and would've wiped them out if Tyrion hadn't personally intervened to save the last survivors.

Teclis searched for some way to save his race from themselves, and found it when he managed to commune with Celennar, the spirit of Hysh's moon. He taught the Lumineth a new way of self-discipline, where they would bond with the elemental spirits to gain their power and wisdom. This rearrangement of Lumineth society was called the Reinvention Wars, which lasted the remaining years of the Age of Chaos and is widely credited with preventing them from becoming extinct altogether.

===Age of Sigmar===
The Lumineth were mostly unseen during the Age of Sigmar, being too focused on rebuilding their own realm in order to care about the other races.

During the Time of Tribulations, Teclis predicted the upcoming Necroquake, and ordered the construction of Aetherquartz towers in order to mitigate its effects. While this helped protect the Lumineth cities from undead invasion, Teclis failed to predict the arrival of Endless Spells, which would become a common plague upon the already magically battered landscape of Hysh.

During a meeting between Teclis and the other Aelven gods, Morathi started claiming that Slaanesh will inevitably escape. While the other Aelven gods dismissed this as the rantings of a madwoman, Teclis took this seriously and decided that the Lumineth must end their isolationism in order to purge Chaos from other realms. This hasn't endeared them well with the other races of Order, as they tend to deploy their legions without permission or warning out of the arrogant assumption that the lesser races can't be trusted to solve their own problems (arrogant ''and'' hypocritical coming from the Lumineth, who [[Eldar|nearly caused their own extinction through selfish obsessions]]). Adding to the fact that they have no problem with killing civilians and allies if they view it as necessary to cleanse Chaos, it’s understandable why some people don’t like it when they arrive unannounced. While the Stormcast have also used this approach, unlike them the Lumineth haven't earned a good reputation beforehand, and are a bunch of Johnny-Come-Latelys compared to the Stormcast's Big Damn Heroes.

At some point, Teclis had found the remnants of [[Eltharion]]'s spirit as he was way too badass to be claimed by Nagash. After putting his soul back together, Teclis ordered armor and weapons made in the Yvressian style, found a dude who looked near identical to Eltharion, created a soulless clone of that guy's body and tried to shove our old boy's soul right in. Sadly, [[Arkhan the Black|Arkhan]] evidently cursed Eltharion so bad that any body his soul is put in crumples to dust, starting with the aforementioned souless clone. As Teclis cried like a bitch, he noticed that Eltharion's soul was able to inhabit the armor, turning him into [[Thousand Sons|a hollow suit of armor powered by light]]. Since then, Eltharion became one of the leaders of the Lumineth, as Teclis tries to figure out how to give him a normal body.

===Broken Realms===

As Morathi attempted to gain godhood and accidentally loosened the chains of Slaanesh, Teclis started pushing his army against the forces of the undead and [[Nagash]] as he realized with shit offically starting to hit the fan across the realms the death gods self-centered power-play had offically gone on long enough. He planned on bringing an end to The Soul Wars and clapping Nagash's boney cheeks for unleashing the Necroquake. Of course, bone daddy won't take this laying down...only to take it standing pretty much. Teclis invaded straight into the heart of Shyish and assualted an Ossiarch city. While they put up a pretty good fight even against Teclis the Bonereapers were routed with news spreading across the realms that the forces of the Death God were not invincible. Fermenting rebellion against Nagash in genral. Nagash seeing that his time in the limelight (in-universe and metawise) was coming to an end he went with the bold scheme of trying to suck multiple realms into the Shyish Nadir by having his Mortarchs collape realmgate routes into it and infusing those realms in pure death magic.

Needless to say this did not go well. Manfred and Neferata both failed in their attempts thanks to the intervention of several factions aided by the Lumineth. Though neither was particularly bothered as even they thought Nagash had finally overreached and essentially abandoned him when both their armies were routed (with Manfred basically planning for that to happen). Only Arkhan was left to try his luck in Hysh. Unforatuantely for him his forces ran smack into Eltharion who was set on evening the score with the liche. After confronting eachother near the realms edge Arkhan ultimately lost the battle with his Ossiarch Legions being crushed near the realms edge and Eltharion literally hurling him into the void at the edge of the realms. Finally getting some justice to his undignified end in the End Times.

Nagash, out of servants and patience, finally decided to get off his ass and assault Hysh himself. He intended to strike a mighty blow to the Lumineth by destroying the mountain spirit Avalenor and corrupting the entire continent with Death Magic. Teclis and Celennar engaged Nagash on the peaks of the mountain itself. While both mighty Nagash was at his prime at this point, still empowered by the magics of the Necroquake. Celennar managed to land some critical blows on Nagash before the Death God managed to destroy his avatar body, forcing Celennars spirit to retreat back to his moon. Teclis however kept up the magical barrage as the two strongest mages in the realms did a Mage fight for the ages, with Teclis managing to annilate Nagash's 9 books in the struggle. However as Nagash seemed to be getting the upper hand on the Mage god as Nagashs greater pure combat experience was proving decisive, Teclis sprung his trap. While Nagash was distracted the armies of the nearby city of Settlers Gain had managed to move several Luminarks of Hysh into position and trained directly on Nagash. At that moment as well the moon of Celenar appeared above the skies and he infused as much of his radiance into the Luminarks just as the mages opened fire on him. Even to a being such as Nagash the concentrated beams seered into him that brought even a god to heel. As Nagash stood staggering, Teclis summoned his powers and bound the weakened Nagash to the peaks of Avalenor with pure Light magic. Now bound and helpless, his powers utterly gone from the attack and Teclis's bindings, a horde of Alarith Spirit of the Mountain's entered the frey from every angle and utterly tore into Nagash without mercy. Their hammers smashing Nagashs physical body to literally dust and sending his beaten spirit back to Shyish.

While completely exhausted Teclis conjured a great rune of banishment in the stars of Hysh themselves that sent a great enchantment acoss all the cosmos of the mortal realms. The wild death magics that had caused untold damage since the soul wars began finally subsided. The Necroquake has been undone! Without their leader or the death magics of the Necroquake the hordes of undead found themselves greatly diminished or just stopped completely. Nagash himself was left battered and near-powerless from the wounds the Lumineth did to him and found his shattered spirit bound to his capital of death by Teclis's magic, weakening him further. With their master beaten and broken and their leaders scattered the undead hordes rampage had been blunted and stopped. The Soul Wars was over.


The price? Teclis was cursed by some sort of Death magic that he found was only lessened while in the presence of strong life magic like that of Allarielle. In addition the lumineths armies were left pretty battered basically ending the Soul Wars single handedly. Regardless Teclis gamble ultimately paid off as Nagash was dealt with just in time before a new threat was about to emerge...

===Era of the Beast===

The Lumineth have started to mobilize in Hysh to combat forces of Destruction rising up there. Several of them also want to study the Khrondspire Incarnates and then calm the elemental magic that's summoning them. But not all is going the Lumineth's way. GW decided they went too far jobbing the entire Death faction for the Lumineth in Broken Realms, so Teclis' magic abilities have weakened due to the damage he took fighting Nagash, and the Lumineth Armies have been greatly depleted given they bore the brunt of the fighting against Nagash's forces.
