Zargothrax
Zargothrax
Zargothrax
With his help, Fort Dundee was raised at the end of the pass, and
armies placed to hold the nightmares there, and it held. The fort
was strong and so were its protectors, who Zargothrax emboldened
with his knowledge and spells against the creatures, and for
years Anthrax was powerless to break through the fort, which not
even flying beasts could go past, while the kingdoms of Fife
trained new heroes to fight Anthrax himself…
The heroes failed, year after year, decade after decade, and a
hundred years passed after Fife had given up on fighting, only
defending itself at the pass, tossing more soldiers into the meat
grinder. But Zargothrax, forgotten as a hero, stood forever
stalwart against Anthrax’s army of nightmares, and one final day
came to face him again, just like he wished as a young man. His
old and scarred body, alive through magic, faced the largest army
Anthrax had ever amassed, and was forced back into the fort,
where the defending soldiers were cut down one by one.
Both sides lost countless fighters, but the nightmares just kept
coming, and Zargothrax was soon pinned in the fort’s main hall,
where surrounded by nightmares held back by his soldiers, he and
Anthrax faced each other, sword in hand… The battle was swift,
both fell to their knees.
This magic instead cut the control Anthrax had over the nightmare
creatures and fused the worlds, bringing nightmare into the real
world, but now Zargothrax had created what he searched so far
for. His body crystallized and with his last thoughts, he became
the one thing that gives life to the nightmares, and so another
hero would one day destroy it and rid the world of fear…
Proletius, Zargothrax II
Terror Shifter, Hero of Nightmare
But he is 18 now…
That means it is time to go, and the memory of his birth returns
to him, the call of God is strong again. He set out for the
Grand Cathedral in the remnants of a dead empire, he could not
refuse God's summons…
It is also time for a new name, one he chooses from his past
life. He is Zargothrax II, but normally goes by Proletius, the
name of his best friend as the first Zargothrax. He will honor
the name.
