Elsword is an ambitious but hot-headed young swordsman trained by his sister Elesis, the leader of the Red Knights. Elesis left her little brother to lead a mission, never to return. Elsword now searches the land for two things: El, the precious gems that power his kingdom, and his missing sister.
{{Background
<br>
|NA=
Elsword is the younger brother of [[Elesis]], the First Captain of Red Knights of Velder.
 
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.
|KR=
열혈남아 스타일로, 때로는 단순 무식해 보일 정도로 어떤 일에든 열정적이다.<br>
거대한 양손검을 한손과 양손으로 자유롭게 사용하며 검술에 있어서는 타의 추종을 불허하며 벨더 왕실 출신의 스승에게 훈련받아 체계적이고 균형 잡힌 전투 기술을 가지고 있다.
 
자존심이 강하여 지고는 못 사는 성격이다.<br>
엘소드의 누나 엘리시스는 벨더 왕국 “붉은 기사단”의 초대 단장이었는데,<br>

|KRT=
He's a hot-blooded boy, and he's passionate about anything he does, to the point that he sometimes seems simply ignorant.
 
He is to freely use a huge two-handed sword with either one hand or two hands, and is unmatched in swordsmanship. He has been trained by a teacher from the Velder royal family and has systematic and balanced combat skills.
 
He has a strong self-esteem and cannot afford to lose.
 
Elsword's older sister, [[Elesis]], was the first leader of the Velder Kingdom "Red Knights".
 
Elsword has admired his older sister since his childhood and trained hard to become as strong as his older sister.


=== Side Story ===
He is now a member of the <El Search Party> that gathers and restores <El> scattered on each continent.
:''Main Article: [[Story/Side Story/Elsword|Resolution]]''<br>
Elsword and his big sister, [[Elesis]], were enjoying an ordinary day, when an unexpected change came about. Elesis had received a reinforcements request from the Velder Army, which required her immediate departure. Elsword tried to persuade her to let him fight alongside her and [[Elkashu|their father]], but failed. She ensured him that the next time they meet, he will have become much stronger, and reluctantly walked away to fulfill her duty.


Elsword was alone, lamenting about the circumstances as he laid upon his bed, reminiscing about his family. His father was one of the best knights of the kingdom, and his sister a highly desired talent, and there he sat alone, feeling weak and helpless. Wishing he was stronger, he grabbed his sword, and began to train relentlessly, day after day, swearing that he will become strong enough to protect everyone. With every bit of progress he made, his face filled with a smile as he recalled his sister's words of encouragement, knowing that someday he would join his family in battle at last.
He prepares an adventure to find El from all over.

Elsword

[A master swordsman who excels at close range combat]

Special Ability

Main Article: Way of the Sword

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.
