	~~===Appearance===~~		Vyre are taller and slimmer than humans in build, however they do not match the Eldar in that regard. The vyre average height is 1.85 meters in men, 1.78 in women. The most prominent feature of the vyre are their unusual eyes and teeth. The pupil is constructed like a cat or lizard for better reaction time and night vision. Eyes also have a nictitating membrane which can filter in or out infrared radiation, allowing for heat sensitive vision. The iris and sclera are very differently coloured to similar mortal races; in young vyre the sclera and iris are wine red and yellow-orange, changing to indigo and white at around 3000 years and then to black scelera with ice blue iris after approximately 10000 years (this has led to the term Red-eye referring to a young adult, particularly ones who frequently make rash decisions or get into trouble, in Vyrran slang. Conversely, calling someone "blue eyed" would parallel to calling them wise, calculating or of good social standing). The mandible is a stem cell bed, meaning that teeth always regrow

	Several thousand years after the rise of Vyrra, a sixteen year old human by the name of Elijah Crane was attacked by a dog carrying the Black Blood virus. A good chunk of his stomach and left side was eaten by the dog, who then left the boy bleeding to death. When Eli awoke, his heightened senses overloaded and knocked him back out again. When he came to the second time he met Michael Belaire, a man who would ultimately become his firmest friend and greatest ally. Normally turned Vyre, while powerful for humans, are impotent compared to their pure-blooded counterparts; not even a tenth as strong, and barely able to wield the most basic of energies. However, even by pure blood standards, Eli was a prodigy the likes of which are only seen once in a millennium, under the tutelage of Michael, he mastered his natural talent for manipulating electricity at the age of eighteen, by which time he was also proficient with fire and ice techniques. Eli rose quickly in the ranks of the Vyrran military, achieving the rank of Knight Commander in the legions of the Baliqa clan at the age of thirty nine. After this stellar rise in the military, the Patrician of the Baliqua had become quite suspicious of Eli; he believed that being turned, there was no possible way that Eli was as powerful as he was purported to be. Thus the clan head promoted Eli to the rank of Vyre lord, in the employ of his nephew, Michael Belaire. while Eli was delighted to be once again working with his old friend and superior, he felt that he would be a poor statesman and applied immediately for his appointment to be redacted. the request was, of course, denied, so Eli halfheartedly applied himself to his new job, at which point the whole of the empire was thrown into an extremely violent civil war, started by the demise of the emperor. The war concerned the Baliqua and Volkiskreb clans, who tried to oust the currently ruling Vijaya clan. ~~Eli was appalled at the behavior of his adopted clan and immediately joined the loyalist faction of the war. at~~ the climax of the war, Eli faced down the entire ruling courts of the ~~Baliqua and Volkiskreb clans~~.

	after several hundred years of mostly peaceful rule, when Eli was aged approximately thirteen thousand years a small industrial system named Balmorra started a surprisingly strong rebellion against the crown.
