Title: The Storm Herald of Talos
Race: Blue Dragon (Disguised as a Humanoid)
Affiliation: Cult of Talos
Status: Deceased
Overview
Lady Myrana was a powerful and enigmatic figure who ruled over a serene keep surrounded by wildflower fields—a deceptive oasis masking the wrath of Talos.
Myrana’s keep served as a haven for her followers, who revered her as a near-divine protector. Beneath her calm and regal demeanor lay a deep, unwavering faith in Talos, and an absolute conviction that only his dominion could prepare the world for the storms to come.
Appearance
Appearing as a striking woman with deep black skin, graying curls streaked with electric blue, and eyes crackling with stormlight, she concealed her true nature as a blue dragon and a chosen servant of Talos, the god of storms and destruction.
Encounter with the Arcane Vanguard
Myrana welcomed the Arcane Vanguard into her keep, offering them rest but speaking with an ominous weight in her words. She privately counseled Sayah and Romark, delivering cryptic warnings and gauging their loyalties.
When pressed by Romark, Myrana revealed a terrifying vision:
- A floating city adrift in the sky.
- A shimmering sea stretching endlessly below.
- A robed man called Karsus, standing on the precipice of creation.
She warned that Karsus’ creation held the power to end the weave.
She demanded that Romark renounce his faiths and swear fealty to the Storm Lord—or face annihilation.
When the party refused, Myrana revealed her true form, transforming into a mighty blue dragon and calling upon Talos’ fury.
The Battle at the Keep
The ensuing battle was ferocious and devastating. Myrana wielded her silver staff, crackling with divine lightning, and summoned the storm itself to strike down her foes. Thunder roared through the keep as the Arcane Vanguard struggled against her immense power.
Despite her overwhelming might, the party stood firm. In a climactic clash, they brought down the Storm Herald.
Aftermath
With Myrana slain, the people of the keep emerged, stunned by the revelation that their leader had been a dragon all along. They witnessed Romark denounce Talos as a false god and proclaim Lathander’s light. Some of Myrana’s followers, shaken by the truth, knelt before him in reverence.
Tyr, ever the opportunist, harvested materials from Myrana’s fallen form—a reminder of the dragon’s might and the party’s victory.
