Starion Alessarë was the seventh Elven-king of Ectharë; whose murder sparked the War of Wrath.
After the death of his father Ainurion during the War of the Dragons, Starion became King of the Silvar-Elves.
In the year 537/2, he was murdered by Lorynäe Anarivon during her attempt to steal the Eternal Throne.
Many believe Lorynäe was Starion's mistress and greatly desired to be his wife, but Starion spurned her. Others have theorized she may have been influenced by dark spirits, or even demonic forces.
Starion's murder caused complete chaos, with elves slaying each other en masse on the streets of the capital of Elutheria. The loyalist faction was led Starion's son; Ismelian, a fierce warrior who swore vengeance upon Lorynäe and all her followers.
