Legend Lore: Ordovich'airth, the Ghostswain of Ghoraii

Ordovich, the first of his name, is a hulking, brutish White Dragon. Having been brewed lies from birth about his birthright to usurp the Palladium King of Ghoraii, Ordovich began his plague of death. He haunted the mountain region near Ghoraii, slaying mercilessly. Beasts, humanoids, even dragons such as himself. He grew with every heart eaten, every ghost conjured, every soul taken.   Ordovich was one of the Five Lords of Strife, ancient Draconic Despots of the ancient Draconic Kingdoms that spanned Idriell long, long ago. Under their leadership, Evil and Tyranny ruled.   It is unknown what removed Ordovich from power. Some say Pikyr organised a coup agains the Kings of Life, the Metallic Dragons that ruled before the Lords of Strife before them - just to have the world in a weakened state to claim for their own hoard. Ordovich was eventually sequestered within a magic sword, one which Pikyr used to hide all other seals behind; ‘{LuQnJpFdRwN'SxL} Seal of Ordovich’airth’. {LuQnJpFdRwN'SxL} translates to ‘Pikyr’s Gleaming’, a technology Pikyr pilfered from Ril-Annon Ost / Rigis Il.   Draconic Seers over the ages have often weaved rumours, prophecies, dark omens, about an unstoppable Ghostswain Dragon plaguing the land once more.
