Descendants of Light
Introduction[edit]
The Descendants of Light are those who ancestors played a pivotal role in the wars between Elthlead, Rigüler, and Velzeria. The men and women who are there descendants are able to wield the Sacred Sword, Langrisser. They are collectively known as the Descendants of Light.
Many of these Descendants would play important roles in the events surrounding the continent of El Sallia as had their ancestors. They would also been seen as a threat by the demons of Velzeria and as such, the Prince of Darkness, Böser has sought to eliminate them time and time again. As such it appears that there many eras in which there are very few men and women who can trace their lineage to the legendary heroes of Elthlead.
If there is a time in which the use of Langrisser is needed, but no Descendant of Light is around to wield the blade than Langrisser may choose a temporary bearer. Which happened in the case of Landius it is possible because the soul of Sieghart was used when Langrisser was forged.
The Ancestors of Light[edit]
Langrisser III The Descendants of Light ancestors appear to be those who were either present when Langrisser was forged or those who helped Elthlead in the reign of Lewin and Tiaris[1]

Sigma | Kalxath or Kleist | Altemüller and Luna | Was Werner von Eigil a Descendant of the Light because he is cousin to Kalxath's Queen or because his ancestor was Altemüller? |
Omega | Unknown | Ancestors Never Established | Omega's ability to use Langrisser is made clear in V, but all we know of his past is that he was an orphan who Gizarof took in. Making uncertain how he's a Descendant of Light. One answer maybe that's his ability to use Langrisser stems more from Gizarof's experimentation.
Omega dies as the end of V so there is no line for him. |

Licorice | Kleist | Digos | Langrisser Re:Incarnation indicates that Licorice is a descendant of Digos and ultimately a descendant of the Böser bloodline, this wiki takes that to mean the Kleist Family. |
Julian | Kalxath | Julian was Kalxath's Prince, this is clearly stated, but not any specific ancestors. | |

References[edit]
- ↑ This is based in part on the fact that some characters such as Altemüller were not present at Langrisser's creation, but did play an impact on Ethlead's early years. However, much of this remains speculative.
- ↑ Technically her abilities concerning Langrisser appear to be more based on the fact that she is the Avatar of the Goddess
- ↑ Never stated in-game, however Digos uses Langrisser in the PCE version, and he uses it in the Langrisser I Novel, in the novel Jessica on page 103 states that he is a distant descendant. In Langrisser Reincarnation his descendant, Ares is called a descendant of light
- ↑ Named as as such since Fauvel was the Warden of the Eastern Lushiris Gate
- ↑ Langrisser V indicates Sigma's ancestor is Altemüller while Langrisser Re:Incarnation indicates that Ares is a descendant of Digos and ultimately a descendant of the Böser bloodline, this wiki therefore takes that to mean the Kleist Family, particularly Paul's First cousin Altemüller (the son of Kleist III).
- ↑ while no ancestors are given, the Langrisser I novel, page 210 states she is not a descendant from the Maidens of Light and Darkness
- ↑ PC Engine remake he is equipped with Langrisser and Re:Incarnation futher establish that he is a DOL, and that his line is connected to Böser
