Sh'kial (sometimes written Sh'kiel)

In Life

Sh'kial was the first known leader of the Dragon Priest around the year 255 BV. At the time the Priests that worshipped the Dragon did so by peaceful offerings. Sh'Kial brought with him, the idea that the dragon dwells in the heart of their very world.(Book:hrrwlwd).

His most avid student was a woman named Dzree, she was very close to Sh'Kial, but in time, she grew restless with the peaceful offerings and the talk of an age of Peace.

In the year 205 BV, Sh'Kial was murdered by his student, Dzree and thus the Dragon Priest Empire began and two factions of Dragon Priests began to roam the land. One in secret, one in warfare.

In contrast to Dzree, his religious teachings were far more mild.

Mentioned in The Legend of the World Dragon.
