Terrano, Keeper of Earth
Terrano is the Great Dragon of Earth, Architecture, Loyalty, History, Tales and Song. He is the largest of the Great Dragons, depicted as mountainous with deep green scales and large shards of emerald protruding from his flesh
"Gaining audience with the Lord of History was no easy task for a Zenon such as myself. He detests our…unpredictability. His size alone was alone dwarfed by the throne chamber carved form him at the deepest depths of Zar'hesh. His scales were greener then the lushest leaves on the surface. A vibrancy I least expected to see.
"You are the Pilgrim my father sent? A pitiful child of my frailest brother? Surely one of my children would be far suited to the task!? My children whom are far more versed in the songs and stories of our people why, this is an egregious insult. But if my father wills it, then so shall it be…
"Very well, I shall tell you the my scope of history but at a price I doubt any frail Zenon could withstand, for each year of history I bequeath to you, you will bear an additional portion of the weight of this world. You will fail…inevitably when your quill slips from your grasp."
My hands tightened around my journal as the Emerald one began to recount the ages…"
"The Pilgrimage of Virnest"
Terrano himself has a mastery of kinetic energy manipulation, a gift he donates to members of his class. He is the keeper of history, as he has documented every act taken by himself and his siblings since the dawn of time. Terrano favors those who teach lessons through stories and song as is believed to be the God who invented music. Which became intrinsic in the formation of Dreagasian battle hymns. Above all else Terrano values loyalty. Loyalty upmost to your god, whether it is him or not. Secondly to your commander. Thirdly, and the greatest taboo, is to your position. Terrano does not tolerate retreat, thusly members of his class are known to embed themselves into their position, holding it up to their kinetic end.
Terrano's Domain is centered in the subterranean city of Zar'hesh. Zar'hesh actually started as the reconstruction of the Terronian city of Zar which was destroyed in the earliest years of (Dreagasian wars). However there is no documented record of the Terrano ever suffering a defeat from a dug in position. Zar'hesh was constructed over the millennia of repeated expansion of subterranean shelters eventually reaching a point that building deep beneath the earth was far more beneficial than building repeatedly destroyed cities on the surface. Zar'hesh is a marvel of architecture, with rotating clockwork buildings and city streets that change layout with the time of day.
