-The '''Elder Valorîin''' represent the apex of mortal physical and psionic capability within [[Lethurîa]]. Designed by the [[First-Flames]] as the original guardians of [[Yedistren]], they possessed extreme strength, sensory acuity, psionic talent, and near-immortal constitutions. Their feats—including the extermination of trillions of [[Sherok]] during the [[Elder Valorîin Rebellion]]—place them near the highest limits of the Thousandfold Stat Scale.
+The '''Elder Valorîin''' represent the original apex of the [[Valorik (Species Family)|Valorik]] lineage—towering, resilient, psionically-gifted warriors designed by the [[First-Flames]] to repel catastrophic threats. Unlike their descendant species, the Elder Valorîin do not bend reality or exhibit cosmic-tier abilities. They exist firmly in the '''Titanite Tier''', displaying extreme physical and psionic excellence while remaining fully mortal.
-This page provides the canonical stat interpretation of the Elder Valorîin using the Universal 1–1000 Cosmic Scale defined in the [[Universal Stat System]].
+This revised stat profile reflects their intended narrative role: mighty, disciplined, long-lived, and spiritually powerful—yet far below the cosmic capabilities of the [[Sherok]] or the [[Divine]].
-== Canonical Stat Block ==
+== Titanite-Class Stat Profile ==
-The following values reflect the peak biological and psionic performance of Elder Valorîin, grounded in recorded physiological capabilities and historical feats.
+The following values use the universal 1–1000 Thousandfold Scale, calibrated for Titanite-level beings.

-! Stat !! Value !! Notes
+! Stat !! Value !! Description
 |-
-| '''Strength''' || '''950''' || Capable of lifting 6+ tons; musculature six times denser than [[Modern Valorîin]]; designed for cosmic warfare.
+| '''Strength''' || '''350–400''' || Towering musculature; capable of lifting several tons; optimized for large-scale melee combat.
 |-
-| '''Dexterity''' || '''700''' || Despite massive size, Elder Valorîin possessed remarkable agility, balance, and martial precision.
+| '''Dexterity''' || '''150–200''' || Surprisingly graceful for their size; agile, balanced, and elf-like in movement.
 |-
-| '''Senses''' || '''950''' || Eagle vision (3 miles), supersonic hearing (6 miles), advanced olfaction (detect 1 microliter of blood at 10 miles).
+| '''Senses''' || '''250–300''' || Predator-tier vision, hearing, and smell; enhanced psionic awareness, but not cosmic.
 |-
-| '''Intelligence''' || '''850''' || Scholars, strategists, and psionic theoreticians; capable of complex governance and warfare against cosmic beings.
+| '''Intelligence''' || '''140–200''' || Highly educated and tactical; ancient individuals may approach proto-sage insight.
 |-
-| '''Constitution''' || '''980''' || Four lungs, multiple hearts, advanced detoxification systems, extreme stamina. Near-indestructible.
+| '''Constitution''' || '''300–400''' || Multiple redundant organs, extreme stamina, superior healing; can outlast dragons but not eldritch beings.
 |-
-| '''Wit''' || '''700''' || Charismatic, culturally dominant, capable of political and social influence among Spirit Tribes.
+| '''Wit''' || '''80–120''' || Limited charisma outside their species; reliance on the Vistrum Bond reduces adaptability to foreign social structures.
 |-
-| '''Will''' || '''999''' || Psionic fortitude near divine levels; resistant to domination, fear, and corruption; capable of enduring the [[The Curse (Valorîin)|Curse]].
+| '''Will''' || '''450–600''' ('''700''' ancient max) || Their defining trait; immense psionic discipline and emotional resilience.

-== Biological Factors Influencing Stats ==
+== Biological Basis ==
-The extraordinary values above derive from multiple documented traits:
+These stats derive from several documented Elder Valorîin traits:
-* '''Musculature Density''' — Six times the density of modern descendants.
+* '''Redundant organ systems''' — four lungs, dual hearts, dual livers, multiple kidneys.
-* '''Height and Mass''' — 15–20 ft males; 12–18 ft females.
+* '''Dense musculature''' — significantly more compact and stronger than descendant species.
-* '''Enhanced Internal Systems''' — Four lungs; quadruple-chambered hearts; dual livers; quad kidneys.
+* '''Towering height''' — 15–20 ft males; 12–18 ft females.
-* '''Psionic Layering''' — Empathic networks, telekinesis, illusion craft, and psychic persuasion.
+* '''Vistrum Bond''' — psionic empathy network that enhances unity but reduces charisma with outsiders.
-* '''Vistrum Bond''' — Emotional and sensory sharing, increasing group battlefield synergy.
+* '''Psionic capabilities''' — emotional resonance, telekinetic subtlety, mental shielding, illusionary talent.
-These biological and metaphysical enhancements place Elder Valorîin at the threshold of cosmic-tier capability while remaining technically "mortal."
+== Cultural and Role-Based Justification ==
+Elder Valorîin are legendary for:
-== Historical Justification ==
+* Their rebellion against the [[Sherok]], despite not being cosmic beings themselves.
-Elder Valorîin recorded feats include:
+* Their immense willpower and unity through the Vistrum.
+* Their status as ancestral exemplars of Valorik endurance and martial prowess.
+* Their historical misunderstanding of non-Valorik species due to Vistrum-reliant communication.
-* The eradication of trillions of [[Sherok]] in open war.
+These qualities justify a Titanite-tier profile: superior to nearly all mortal races, but far below cosmic classes.
-* Resistance to divine punishment prior to the [[The Curse (Valorîin)|Curse]].
-* Cultural dominance among the [[Volamin]] Spirit Tribe.
-* Serving as lovers, courtesans, and ceremonial attuners to the High Sherok, indicating high psionic affinity and resonance.
-These feats align with their stat values near the upper cosmic scale.
+== Intended DM Usage ==
+Use Elder Valorîin stats when:
+* Presenting ancient ruins, echoes, or genetic memory events.
+* Introducing a legendary ancestor or guardian entity.
+* Depicting Titanite-level threats or allies who do not distort reality.
+* Comparing modern Valorîin weaknesses to their mythic origins.
+For cosmic interactions: Elder Valorîin should be overwhelmed by [[Sherok]] and insignificant beside the [[Divine]].
