Thanh

Atop the highest peak in Xiang Feng, the tallest mountain the world, stands the Golden Palace. A great structure that resembles the golden cities of Xhalandar. It is here that roosts Thanh, the oldest dragon in the world.

Background
Not much is known of Thanh's background, most don't even know he exists beyond more than a rumor. Born long before the Invaders came, he is a creature from another time and place, a remnant of the old world.

It is he who took in the people of Xiang Feng, and maintains their beautiful mountains. It is he who made sure they knew the truth of their place in the world. Of the sins of their ancestors. He is their greatest secret, and their greatest protector.

Should one talk to him, he will lament the state of the world, and give hints at times long since forgotten. One could say he has the greatest hoard of all: the last remnants of a nearly extinct race.

Personality
Thanh is a reclusive creature that sits atop the highest point in the world. When he acts, he usually does it threw intermediary champions like Andra.

To speak to him is to speak to a lover of a world now gone. He is sickened by the entropy that has taken root in the world. Despite this, he still cares for its denizens. Humans have proven to him they are not all bad, and he seeks to protect them like any other.

Once an enemy of the Amukreen, and all children of Khapri-Amun, he now considers them nothing more than fools, clinging to the promise of the Absolute Record after even fate has been broken.

While the Amukreen are the children of order, Dragons are the creatures of chaos. But that does not mean he is an entity who wishes others ill will. Rather, he wishes them freedom.

Abilities and Notable Equipment
Thanh's abilities are largely unknown. He does not resemble the normal breeds of Dragon, having a crystalline appearance. Like other Dragons, he can bestow a Geas upon mortals.

He possesses some ability to perceive the cycle of reincarnation, as his champions are those who have served him in the past. Also he seems to posses an ability similar to the Fey Courts to preserve a section of the world.

Scholars who believe in such things take him to be an Avatar of Phanez.

Trivia
