Thelius Drow is the governing mayor of Ravensridge. He rose through the ranks of government from a young age and has been credited for revitalising the cities once diminishing trade networks. Thelius is a member of The High Court, as all mayors are.

Biography
While Thelius is seen as a descent leader, he harbors the blood of an Elder-Demon and fights each day to maintain control of his body. Eventually he fears the demon will take over and invoke political chaos in the city. Thelius owes his role as leader to the Synod of the High Church, which influenced the outcome of his political campaign greatly.

Thelius is sometimes seen carrying a sword, which many speculate is decorative; Thelius is often regarded behind closed doors as an ill fit man of poor physical stature. Thelius Drow also owns the title of first male mayor in the city for over 150 years.

Influence
Despite his title of mayor, Thelius actually holds little say in the goings on of the city, and instead acts as a figurehead, as most mayors tend to do. He still battles with sexism, as many common folk are convinced a man is incapable of the quick and intelligent decision-making needed to run a city.

Thelius is in somewhat of a tricky situation, as he is obligated to serve the city, which vicariously means serving the Abaddons. But on the other hand, he is now treated as an instrument of the High Church and must do as they say, more or less; he owes them for getting the position as mayor, which was no easy task even with a church behind him.
