Talk:Ael'tharaxus

Intro event msgs for clean up later:

An odd-shaped speck drifts throughout the morning sky, high above the Wyvern Mountains and heading towards their eastern end.

The speck in the sky grows larger, plummeting down towards the earth! You are barely able to make out a reddish color to the object, with hints of.. something else.

As the object continues streaking towards the ground, you are soon able to make out its true form. A large, four-legged, red-scaled reptile with slashes of gold through its body, two massive leathern wings are stretched out to either side. As it continues in its dive, two things come to mind in rapid succession: That is a dragon, and it is coming straight towards you!

The dragon's rapid descent towards the base of Wyvern Mountain brings its features into better view. An elongated neck is topped by a fierce snout, vaguely reminiscent of a mainland S'Kra Mur. Four muscular limbs are currently remaining parallel to its body, though even at this distance the presence of large claws at the end of the feet are unmistakable. A tail roughly the length of the rest of its body streams behind it, and the dragon eyes the area below it carefully.

When you are almost convinced the dragon is going to slam into the earth at top speed, it pulls out of the dive and beats its leathern wings fiercely, creating a reverberating roar and currents of wind that whip around your body. Though this effort does not keep the beast airborne, it slows descent speed enough that the impact of its four legs against the ground is only mildly earthshaking.

As the jarring sensation caused by the dragon's landing subsides, fierce grey eyes gaze out from its snout to regard the terrain about it. Folding wings up against its back, the creature rumbles out in a loud and decidedly male voice, "I am Ael'tharaxus. I have come to speak to your Ferdahl as promised."

After its statement, the dragon settles down on his haunches and.. waits. The gathered people seem to be of no concern and hold no attention for him, but a sense of anxiety rises within you at any thought of approaching the large reptile.

(after talks concluded): Rising back up to all fours, Ael'tharaxus takes several quick bounds away from the Ferdahl before leaping into the air with a powerful beating of wings. With less effort than it seems like it ought to take, the dragon quickly soars upward into the sky and back towards the west.
