Tyrseos

== History ==
An Ancient White Dragon who lives in the most inhospitable mountain in Jotunheim. Many centuries ago, a band of warriors a dragonslayer named Markus Lofgren came to kill him and take his loot. Tyrseos killed Lofgren and demanded that his followers submit to him. Lofgren's eldest son, who was amongst them, swore fealty to the dragon. Tyrseos demanded that his newfound followers - christened the Pale Dragon Warriors - bring him slaves and loot. For generations, they have done so, and the descendants of Markus Lofgren still command the Pale Dragon Warriors to this day. 
A hundred years after the death of Markus Lofgren, the ruling Lord of the Pale Dragon Warriors died with only a daughter as his heir. The daughter was permitted to bear the children of Tyrseos, and so the ruler of the Pale Dragon Warriors has been a Dragonborn ever since. 
During the Winter War, Tyrseos took to the battlefield for the first time in centuries against the Cult of the Windwalker. 
== Personality ==
Avaricious, cunning, and domineering. Tyrseos has an animal cunning but little ambition besides power and wealth. He has little interest in company, and prays upon mammoths and whales. He has an eidetic memory, and knows the identity of every Pale Dragon Warrior who has ever served him. When a Pale Dragon Warrior dies, he demands that their corpse be brought to him. He freezes the body and has assembled an army of ice statues that he believes will follow him as an honor guard into the afterlife. 
== War of the Philosopher-Kings ==
During the War of the Philosopher-Kings, Tyrseos told King Ymir that he would refuse to allow the Pale Dragon Warriors to fight for him unless he was provided with a great tribute. Ymir acquiesced, and the Pale Dragon Warriors went to war. 
== After the War ==
Tyrseos is mindful of the encroaching madness spreading from the Northern Dome, and is warily preparing for the eventuality that he might need to move his lair.
