'''[A master swordsman who excels at close range combat]'''

The "Way of the Sword" ability enables him to utilize the energy gained through attacks and skills into 2 types of auras: Aura of Vitality and Aura of Destruction. Aura of Vitality helps Elsword to recover mana faster by 200% (150% in PvP) through certain commands and allows Elsword to use skills labeled as "Vitality skills" at a lower MP cost, allowing Elsword to make the most out of his MP pool. Aura of Destruction helps Elsword to do more damage by increasing the damage of his heavy attacks and skills labeled as "Destruction skills" by 100% and 50%, respectively.  

=== Background ===

|NA=

Elsword trained hard from a young age to be strong like his sister, learning his sword techniques from a knight of Velder.

He began his adventure when he received a mission to restore the El as a member of the El Search Party.

열혈남아 스타일로, 때로는 단순 무식해 보일 정도로 어떤 일에든 열정적이다.<br>

엘소드의 누나 엘리시스는 벨더 왕국 “붉은 기사단”의 초대 단장이었는데,<br>

He's a hot-blooded boy, and he's passionate about anything he does, to the point that he sometimes seems simply ignorant.

He has a strong self-esteem and cannot afford to lose.

Elsword has admired his older sister since his childhood and trained hard to become as strong as his older sister.

He is now a member of the <El Search Party> that gathers and restores <El> scattered on each continent.

He prepares an adventure to find El from all over.

== Trivia ==

*'''Elsword''' has the unparalleled unique ability to resonate with the El, so much so that [[Solace]] labels '''Elsword''' as the "Guardian of El".

**This ability was first seen in '''Elsword''''s tutorial, where he used the El's power to ward off [[Berthe]] before [[Aisha]] intervened.

**Due to his unique resonance with the El, '''Elsword''' actually has an almost instinctive desire to restore the El, even if he doesn't realize it.

**The forced use of this ability is the basis for the [[Genesis]] path, which explores how excessive use of it could affect '''Elsword''', as opposed to the [[Knight Emperor]] path who displays the ability naturally.

*'''Elsword''' is the youngest person to have ever been officially admitted into the actual El Search Party program from [[Ruben]].

*While '''Elsword''' has an affinity for the fire element just like his sister [[Elesis]], he's initially unaware of this ability and never consciously uses it outside of the [[Rune Master]] path, where he accidentally released some of it and then had [[Aisha]] teach him how to control it.

**In the past, it was [[Echo (NPC)|Echo]] who performed a ritual on Elsword that allowed the [[Magic Knight]] to use fire magic.

**While skills like [[Flame Geyser]], [[Mortal Blow]] and [[Grand Cross]], from base and the [[Knight Emperor]] path may look like fire magic at first glance, their descriptions all specifically refer to just slamming the ground hard enough for rocks and flames to shoot out. While this may be aided by his affinity towards the element, he does not control it.

*'''Elsword''''s backstory is similar in concept to [http://grandchase.wikia.com/wiki/Elesis Elesis Sieghart], a character in a separate MMO created by KoG called [http://grandchase.wikia.com/wiki/Grand_Chase Grand Chase].

**In the beta, '''Elsword''' was voiced by the same voice actor of Lass in Grand Chase.

*'''Elsword''''s Promotional Sword will change form while in Awakening Mode, a trait which is only shared by the other original characters, [[Aisha]] and [[Rena]].

*'''Elsword''' wrote the [[Skill Notes|Skill Note]] "Stronger the better!" for Pyro Knight's [[Burst Wave]] skill.

**'''Elsword''' was also influential in the making of the skill note [[Dynamo Configuration - Dissolver|Particle Converter]].

*In very early versions of the game, [[Elsword]] actually had unique skill cut-ins for specific skills, such as a unique cut-in for [[Flame Geyser]] and [[Unlimited Blade]].

*'''Elsword''''s canon birthday is the same as the release date for [[Elsword (game)|Elsword]] in Korea. He also shares his birthday with [[Aisha]].

*In the side story [[Story/Side Story/Elsword's Story 1|Resolution 3]], it is revealed that '''Elsword''''s father's name is [[Elkashu]].

*'''Elsword''': ''Gotta hustle and get the power of El back!''

*'''Elsword''': ''Gotta keep going and do Sis proud. Bring it on, bad guys!''

*'''Elsword''': ''Was that supposed to stop me? I'm just gonna keep getting stronger!''
