Hi all, I recently saw /u/thekingbobe's post on reddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Berserk/comments/621vv0/s_skeleknight_question/
While I certainly don't think his speculation of SK being the Sovereign of the Flower Storm has any credence it did make me carefully rethink the connections between SK and the elves.
I did a quick search on sk.net and found these threads:
http://www.skullknight.net/forum/index.php?topic=14647.0 (SK is a Half-Elf )
http://www.skullknight.net/forum/index.php?topic=14759.0 (Peekaf the elf king)
http://www.skullknight.net/forum/index.php?topic=13895 (Skull Knight = The Flower Storm King)
The above threads basically dismiss the possibility of SK being a half-elf or the Sovereign of the Flower Storm. However, I think it is obvious there is some strong connection between the elves and SK.
I believe there has been a few occasions where SK has been likened to an elf. Notably:
From episode 142
Walter also pointed out that SK's emblem happens to be a flower, which while it doesn't prove much may suggest a deeper connection between him and the Sovereign of the Flower Storm.
Do we have any ideas about this connection yet?
Based on the following assumptions:
My first thought was that perhaps that when SK was consumed by the berserker armor the Sovereign of the Flower Storm performed some ritual that transferred his essence into it's current form and in doing so left a distinctly elven aura on him.
This could be another reason that SK seemed so familiar with the SotFS's powers and thus told guts that upon his arrival to Skellig SotFS would be able to help Casca.
So I ask those who are likely more informed than I:
[list type=decimal]
[*]Do we have any theories about the relationship between Gaeseric and the elves.
[*]Do we have any information about the dwarves that might relate the armor with the elves
[*]Do we have anything relating Flora to the elves other than a) she had an elf living with her and b) elfhelm seems to be a haven for magic-users

Based on the following assumptions:
- SK is/was Gaeseric
- Gaeseric was human (no part-elf here!)
- SK was the former wearer of the berserker armor that "died"
- SK/Flora had a substantial relationship with SotFS
