Kośikarin was born on the ninth day of the sixth lunation, 21148, in Téhama, [[ | Kośikarin was born on the ninth day of the sixth lunation, 21148, in Téhama, [[South Æonara]]. At the time, [[Great Kirav]] was under the rule of the Kirosocialist régime while [[Æonara]] remained under the control of the displaced Kiravian Federal Republic government. The third of four children, Elend was born into a [[Eshavian Coscivians|Eshavian Coscivian]] family with deep roots and (formerly) significant landholdings in [[Kaviska|Kaviska State]]. His father was a military intelligence officer and low-ranking but respected member of the [[Renaissance Party]] who oversaw a training and cryptography installation near Téhama at the time of Elend's birth. Located in the ''thóaśad'' or "cool land" altitudinal zone of the [[Æonara#Geography|Jade Mountains]], Téhama had a long history as a {{wp|hill station}} and during Kośikarin's youth it was booming as a vacation destination for thousands of Federalist loyalists who had fled to Æonara from cold, rainy Great Kirav and had difficulty adjusting to the island's tropical climate. The young Kośikarin worked several different part-time jobs at the city's busy hotels and restaurants before enrolling at the Æonara Agronomic & Mineral University. Kośikarin undertook studies with an eye to becoming a mineral rights agent for the inland oil and gas industry, but instead found himself working for a land development company involved in building many of the ''háskaþóatuonaxerkî'' (Ænglish: "air-conditioning colonies"), the name given to the many residential and vacation-home developments being built on cheap land in the hot, humid lowlands of Æonara at the time. A dogged negotiator, Kośikarin rose quickly in the industry and became a partner in the firm responsible for the successful and now-renowned Ixtapáuma Resort on the southern coast. | ||
Kośikarin had continued his family's tradition of political involvement as treasurer of the Renaissance Party students' union at Æonara A&M and was inducted as a full member of the party at age 21. Shortly after marrying Mitaya Lêkuv, an ethnic [[Ethnic Groups in Kiravia#Umcaran_Coscivians|Umcaran Coscivian]], Kośikarin switched his allegiance to the separate but related Umcaran Renaissance Party with the encouragement of his father-in-law, a party dignitary, and successfully ran for a Talihina County Commission seat on the URP ticket. To date he remains the only non-Umcaran member of the URP to hold elected office. Kośikarin proved himself as an effective fundraiser and political operative for URP nominee F. Yamin Kéovoń during the 2010 South Æonara gubernatorial election, securing himself an appointment as State Affairs Executive and Secretary of State. In South Æonara, the State Affairs Executive is responsible for numerous miscellaneous policy areas and government services, including tourism and trade promotion and the registration of business entities. As State Affairs Executive, Kośikarin pruned and simplified regulations on business licencing and worked closely with industry groups to expand tourism opportunities in the state and aggressively promote South Æonara's attractions abroad. His productive tenure came to an end in 2015 when Governor Kéovoń was narrowly defeated in his bid for reëlection and Kośikarin resigned along with the rest of Kéovoń's cabinet, in accordance with custom. | Kośikarin had continued his family's tradition of political involvement as treasurer of the Renaissance Party students' union at Æonara A&M and was inducted as a full member of the party at age 21.

Through backroom wrangling, Kośikarin was able to have himself put forward as one of the URP's recommendations to serve in Buśra's cabinet and became Chief Tourism Executive after hastily obtaining legal domicile and a [[Passport system in the Kiravian Federacy|domestic passport]] in East Æonara to make himself constitutionally eligible for the role. His appointment was reported on fairly widely across the Federacy, as he became the first person in over a century to serve in the cabinets of two different Kiravian states. | ||
In late 2021 it was announced that Kośikarin had been appointed as Chairman of the League of Nations Tourism & Travel Commission. Upon taking office in 2022, he announced that key priorities for his term would be promotion of ecotourism in the national development strategies of underdeveloped countries, a comprehensive report on global travel safety, a push for regulatory restructuring at the national level to encourage the proliferation of budget {{wp|point-to-point transit|point-to-point}} airline service to provincial airports and outlying destinations of touristic value on the industrialised continents, and a robust reports on the implications of {{wp|geographical indication|geographical indications}} for agritourism and on emerging tourism opportunities in [[Crona]]. | In late 2021 it was announced that Kośikarin had been appointed as Chairman of the League of Nations Tourism & Travel Commission.

Kośikarin's permanent residence is in the seaside town of Lantana, | Kośikarin's permanent residence is in the seaside town of Lantana, East Æonara State. Although he is a polyglot in the sense that he speaks multiple Coscivian languages (Eshavian, Æonaran, Umcaran, Kiravic) and intermediate {{wp|Portuguese language|Lusonic}}, he does not speak Latin or Ænglish. It has been noted that he requires full-time translators to assist him with League of Nations business, and that in moments when translators are unavailable he will often attempt to speak "Latin" by appending Latin suffixes to Lusonic words, and this habit is a source of great amusement to the bartenders of [[Alba Concordia]]. In a 2022 interview for a trade journal, Kośikarin stated that he has never been to Great Kirav except during airport layovers. | ||
In December 2025, Kośikarin resigned as chair of the Tourism & Travel Commission to accept an appointment as the first president of the [[Institute of Cronan Studies]]. | |||
