Zragar Baltoghlu Maccal
Kabudyan Zhervizar Zragar Baltoghlu Maccal
Zragar Maccal was a Duryadi Fleet Admiral and military general famed for his victories against the Fiongian navy during the Thrakiot war in the Aurixen Dynasty, who became an exemplar of conduct for both the Duryadi and Fiongians. Despite the fact that he had no prior naval training, Fleet Admiral Zragar was never defeated at sea nor lost a single ship under his command to enemy action, and military historians have placed him on par with Admiral Narkul Cralthud as one of the greatest naval commanders in history. His title of Neavol Meagear di wer fogah okarthelic, literally means "Naval Commander of the Three Provinces".
Over the course of his career, Admiral Zragar has fought in at least 23 recorded naval engagements, all against the Fiongians. In most of these battles, he was outnumbered and lacked necessary supplies. His most famous victory occurred at the Battle of Z'ar Rilark , where despite being outnumbered 300 warships against his 140, he managed to disable or destroy 51 of the 300 Fiongians warships without losing a single ship of his own.
Although his successes were often ignored by the Duryad royal court during his early militaty career, after his victory in Thule various honors were bestowed upon him, including the title of Ithdifidavuraryte; Duke of Loyalty and Warfare, an enrollment as a First-class military order of merit during the reign of Haleema. Over time, Admiral Zragar became a national hero in Duryad, and remains so today.

Accomplishments & Achievements
Remembering the boy he captured in the Thulian channel , Zragar decides to adopt Morthos, sympathizing with his loss of family. Over the course of military training, Zragar and Morthos bond. His inquisitiveness in regards to the tymerian philosophy and training to become a navy offical are frequent subjects discussed. When he asks if he can become a captain, Zragar tells him "someday".
One of Zragar's greatest accomplishments was inventing the dragon turtle ship (Draconic: Darastrixtestudi driik). With his creative mind and the support of his subordinates, Zragar was able to devise the Dragonturtle ship, or Turtle Ship.

Mental Trauma
Zragar is haunted by the death of his youngest son Calugar and wife, Darina. The illness and subsequent death of his right-hand-man, Narkul Maccal, leaves him burdened with the responsibility of protecting the empire from all outside threats and makes him responsible for Morthos. Though he believes he can command a ship as well as anyone, his fear that his desire for adventure will lead hm into trouble, prevents him from allowing him to command. Their relationship is built on mutual respect and understanding for one another. Exept for his son eldest Roghar, and his adoptive son Morthos, he is the sole survivor of the Maccal Clan.
Morality & Philosophy
His demeanor as a soldier and former Zarytary allows him to empathize with the responsibility of those under his command, but leaves little room for insubordination and ego. Travis Beacham describes Zragar as " a man who hunts down his enemies, like a shark hunting its prey " with regrets in regards to the lives led by the people around him. Understanding that none of them can merely forget their duty to the world, he refrains from filling his comrades heads with wishes and fantasies of a better life. Zragar sees himself as the "fixed point" that keeps the entire The Tymerian Royal Navy focused on the goal of defeating the Magowanese threat. Zragar commands great respect amongst his soldiers as shown by their reactions to him choosing to lead the charge himself and his rousing speech before The Battle of Z'ar Rilark .
