Viridian

The Ancient is nothing if not pragmatic. And quixotic. A visionary of wisdom. A utilitarian of fools.Viridian, the Quixotic One was an ancient fey dragon of great power. In the modern day, he lived deep beneath the Ławglasqaqquit, the endless barrows and tunnels below Halcyon. 
== The Old One of Verdancy ==
Viridian represented the natural forces and green magic of the world, and held some sway over things such as druidic, dryadic, and fey magic. His mark varied, but was often green-blue in colour, sometimes incorporating natural elements into it.
== The Ancient ==
Viridian was first attested in ancient writing dating to the late Bronze Age, where he was depicted as a small greenish drake or wyrmling. Some legends that were passed on by the Anoquit to the Vreigardt people of the west coast named him, too, in their stories. Compare the name Viridian to the Limba Vrei Węredun or to the Old Gildegran Ławitiun. All of these names stemmed from the Old Gildegran, meaning 'green dragon'. 
Throughout his time in the ancient era, it is possible he bonded with many. However, Grace Eti was likely the first, and definitely the most notable of the ancient times. It was with her that the Anoquit migration occurred, the meteor strike of the -8000s happened, and that the village where future Waterdeep would be was settled. Viridian moved into the Ławglasqaqquit barrows soon after, growing ever larger and more powerful as the millennia rolled on. He granted his power to his Ła:uit (Greenwardens), keepers of the ancient traditions and watchers of the barrows. By the modern era, he was unfathomably large and powerful. He had seen much, and watched it unfold.
