Elsword
The Swordsman
Story
A fiery and determined boy, Elsword wields a massive two-handed sword with unmatched skill. Inspired by his sister Elesis, captain of the Red Knights, he joins the El Search Party to restore the scattered El and grow stronger.
Sword Knight
Just like his sister, who wielded her sword to protect the kingdom, Elsword took up arms and vowed to stand against all evil as a defender of Velder. He swore to uphold his duty and fight until the end.
As a Sword Knight, one of Velder’s elites, he faces every challenge head-on, yielding to no threat that stands before him.
Lord Knight
Elsword, now a Lord Knight, is always at the heart of the battlefield, charging ahead to defeat his enemies. The title of Lord Knight is reserved for only the best, knights who have proven their might, endurance, and skill through countless battles.
His strength and courage inspire those who fight beside him, as he embodies the true spirit of a warrior.
Knight Emperor
Driven by his desire to grow stronger, Elsword always compared himself to his sister, Elesis. When they met again and he saw that she was still stronger, he felt discouraged. But when his friends stood by him, risking everything to save him, Elsword understood the true value of friendship.
He realized that strength wasn’t just about power—it was about believing in himself and trusting in those who fought by his side.
Magic Knight
Elsword discovers his natural affinity for fire magic and decides to incorporate this talent into his combat style. He recognizes that few can master both magic and swordsmanship, as it requires an inherent understanding of magic alongside great sword technique.
With his new abilities, Elsword can manipulate fire magic and create sword illusions, allowing him to use a wide range of tactical strategies in battle.
Rune Slayer
Mastering both sword aura and magic is no easy feat, as they rely on two completely different types of mana. To overcome the inefficiency of balancing two energies,Elsword devises a way to imbue magic directly into his sword, combining the two forces into one.
This breakthrough earns him the title of Rune Slayer, a magic swordsman capable of blending magic and swordsmanship seamlessly.
Rune Master
After restoring the El, Elsword notices a shift in the way mana flows through his body. Rather than suppress this newfound power, he chooses to release it fully.
With explosive mana coursing through both his body and blade, Elsword unlocks abilities no other magic swordsman could achieve, becoming a Rune Master, unmatched in his mastery of magic and sword.
Sheath Knight
Elsword wields the magical sheath, Conwell, which allows him to summon swords at will.
Mastering both traditional dual-sword techniques and the ability to control multiple summoned blades, he uses a variety of strategies to dominate his enemies with precision and force.
Infinity Sword
During his battles with demons, Elsword uncovers a hidden power within Conwell—the ability to channel demonic energy, amplifying its destructive capabilities. Though wielding such power threatens to awaken a darker side within him, Elsword resolves to embrace it for the sake of becoming stronger. With sheer willpower and unwavering determination, Elsword keeps the darkness at bay, allowing him to control the demonic energy without losing himself.
As the Infinity Sword, he pushes Conwell to its limits, accepting both light and dark in his quest for even greater strength.
Immortal
After coming into contact with the El, Elsword taps into the immense power of the Dark El and claims it as his own. His once-reliable sword now feels too light to channel the full extent of his newfound strength.
Rather than seek a new weapon, Elsword chooses to forge one himself by combining his summoned swords into a single, massive blade. The result is a sword as black as night, far heavier than he anticipated, but perfectly suited for unleashing his true potential. Though the weight is immense, Elsword knows that this weapon will help him reach new heights of power.
As the Immortal, he wields the blade with unrelenting force, ready to conquer any foe that stands in his way.
Root Knight
Frustrated with the limits of his strength, Elsword recalls how he once subconsciously resonated with the El to draw upon its power in Ruben. Using the magic stones found in Bethma, he creates the support equipment ‘Sephira’ to enhance his ability to resonate with the El.
With the help of Sephira, Elsword successfully harnesses the power of the El and continues his journey. Now, with a newfound method to resonate with the El, he protects his friends while seeking the stolen El.
Sacred Templar
As Elsword continues to use the El’s power, his resonance grows stronger, but with it, a sense of duty that is not his own begins to overwhelm him. The more he draws upon the El, the more he loses pieces of himself. Yet, even as he feels part of himself slipping away, he remains determined not to let anyone down.
This power is to protect the El and the world, and with the holy sword in his hand, Elsword, the holy knight, marches resolutely toward the battlefield.
Genesis
After restoring the El, Elsword thought his mission was over. However, when he comes to his senses, he finds himself separated from the El, already in the midst of battle. It was his choice to protect the El, the world, and his friends by eliminating those who threatened them, but it seems his role is far from finished.
Now, Elsword accepts that everything will follow according to fate, and he continues to fulfill his purpose.
