The Elders came from an earlier period in Eternian history and were members of King Grayskull court who ruled his kingdom from Castle Grayskull. They were present in the era when their King fought against the evil Snake Men and later the Evil Horde. In the latter of the two conflicts, King Grayskull was mortally wounded by the hands of Hordak but not before banishing the sorceror to the realm of Despondos. Before his death, King Grayskull transformed his ancient power which was used to magically enchant his closest advisors that became the Council of Elders which would continue to protect Eternia following the death of their lord. Afterwards, the Elders would abandon Castle Grayskull and rule from the Hall of Wisdom where they fought against numerous threats such as the Snake Men. Whilst Hordak was defeated, King Hiss remained at large and the leader of the Snake Men unleashed the dread Snake God Serpos onto Eternia. However, the power of the Elders was used to imprison the giant snake and petrify its body in the Dark Hemisphere which later became known as Snake Mountain.
