By the time his father died, Elric had learned a great deal, and took the Ruby Throne as one of the most powerful sorcerers the world had ever seen. Elric's Childhood, while lacking the love of his father, was a time of sorcerous and academic education. His mother died in childbirth and his father, Emperor Sadric the Eighty-Sixth, blamed her death entirely on his sole, thin-blooded son. This changes, for better or worse, when he obtains his sword, Stormbringer.Įlric was born the only heir to the Ruby Throne of Melniboné. Weak and sickly from birth, Elric is forced to subsist on drugs and potions to sustain his strength and health. He carries Stormbringer in a scabbard at his belt, and wears the ancient Ring of Kings on his left hand. When not in armour, Elric favours all-black garb, but has been known to dress as a mercenary, donning wildly clashing barbarian attire. Elric is normally attired in traditional Melnibonéan armour with a signature dragon helm. He is very tall, slender to the point of gauntness, yet elegantly muscled. He was born with albinism, making his flesh pale, his hair white, and his eyes a deep crimson. From the tapering, beautiful head stare two slanting eyes, crimson and moody."Įlric is a Melnibonéan, and as such, he is not exactly human. "It is the colour of a bleached skull, his flesh and the long hair which flows below his shoulders is milk-white.
