## **enorax, The Red-Eyes Dragon**

Venorax is medium size dragon (about 8-9 meters from nose to tail, wing span about 15 meters) with black scales, red wings, glowing red eyes, black teeth and a god complex.

Venorax hates other intelligent races of Greavesoyl (mainly humans) much more than most dragons do. He thinks about them as lesser entities that don't deserve to live and should serve him, and takes great pleasure in killing humans in brutal ways. He even hates other dragons, calling them weak and worthless. Venorax considers himself to be the ultimate dragon, perfect live form who should rule the world. Losing an eye to "subcreature" made him hate everything but himself even more and now finding and killing Eleya is his #1 priority.

## **Story**

In ancient times, before magic had a name and mankind feared to step outside caves the world was ruled by reptiles. Giant herbivores and agile apex predators, flying nightmares and underground terrors. Over centuries state of the food chain on Greavesoyl changed a lot and all species of giant ancient reptiles went extinct, all expect one, the most dangerous and most intelligent - dragons.

Today only few hundred dragons are still alive. Most of them settled in desolate mountains called Drake Peaks and avoid any trouble as they understand that nowadays these little bipedal monkeys can and will kill them, yet, some of them choose different way.

For as long as the elders could remember little nameless village somewhere between Rohoim and Drake Peaks was ruled by cruel beast whose name was only whispered in fear - Venorax the Red-Eyes Black Dragon. Nobody could stand up against him and people of the village couldn't hope for outside help as not many even remembered that the village exists. Dragon took away their valuables, livestock and if anyone tried to fight him or escape the village - their lives.

But then on one rainy day pair of wandering adventurers came to the village looking for shelter. Swordsman and huntress had no idea what was happening in this forgotten place and did something they shouldn't - started asking questions. People of the village wanted them to flee so they wouldn't be trapped with them, even Venorax wanted to let them go so their disappearance wouldn't be suspicious for the rest of the world but the truth was discovered. And the same night for the first time in many decades flying tyrant would face the opponents who could fight him back. Arrow right in the eye forced him to retread and when he came back the village was empty. Man, woman, children and elders, even the livestock - all gone. In just few hours every building, every fence and even innocent scarecrow were razed by furious drake. He abandoned his lair and ventured into the world that already knew about his war crimes.

All he wants now is to find her, the woman who took his eye. To show her what "dragon rage" really means.

## **In-game**

Venorax can burn down his target from safe distance. His Flight is one of the best escape tools in the game, but high cooldown and cast time leaves him vulnerable for quick assassination.
