Pyromancer Zesprin

The Pyromancer hones her burning powers

## Appearance

As a servant of The Reason, her nature as one shows like a nuclear bomb in a playground. She dresses in long, crimson-black robes with a brown under-layer, and is most distinct body-wise for her pale skin, blood-soaked hair, and the massive burn mark on her face. Other distinctive features can be seen throughout her body, such as a mild malnutritioned feel, unnaturally cold skin, sharp teeth, and her unusually shaped Matriarch's Scepter.

## History

Zesprin was actually unaware of her nature for the longest time, however upon discovering it as all Draigi inevitably do, she became angered, wishing to discover who had caused the origin of her race. So she read up on the history of the draigi, to such a point where she actually figured out not only the inner workings and rankings of the Dynasty, but also managed to figure out that The Reason had actually conspired with and caused almost all of the recent events. As such, she sought to slay him, and mastered the art of pyromancy on top of her cryonic powers. She in fact got so powerful and intelligent she tracked down and fought The Reason, a battle that almost resulted in the shadion's death before he resorted to the petty tactic of begging. He managed to hit Zesprin's sweet spot, however, promising to her that he would pass on all the dynasty's knowledge before she finished him. As with all The Reason's deals, however, the knowledge and secrets from every depth and corner of the dynasty proved too intense and otherworldly for her, driving her insane instantly. It was in this state of madness that she swore allegiance to the Dynasty, and got to such a point where she scorched her eyes in an effort to nullify all the information she was processing.

It was only far after this that she founded the Fire Fortress, hiring Sir Nesmot as an assassin to do her bidding. The Reason, seeing her power and potential, also assigned Sir Kahkheel, the second Dragis created and brother of the great Gastromar, to protect her. While she manipulated Max for the longest time, as well as sneaking Nesmot into the Anti-Death Gang, she in the end only got more insane with time, but also more powerful. She eventually conducted a ceremony that restored The Dynasty, and it's shogun to flesh, an act that instantly landed her as the dynasty's Matriarch on the Draigis side of the military. When things went quite badly for The Dynasty and her master got desperate, The Reason merged with her, forming a Shadion-Draigis hybrid that almost resulted in the destruction of half the Void's End. In the end, however, this creature was killed with the power of the Sha Valiti Ebonor in Max's hands, and as such Zesprin died with it.

## Powers

Being by far one of the most powerful draigis in the Void's End continuity that appears in Max's story, she possesses wide variety of dark, ice, fire, and even some healing spells, also knowing some basic planar summoning. All in all, she is by far the strongest in pyromancy, her greatest feats showing her bringing a whole building up in flames through raising her scepter with both hands. Like all draigis matriarchs, she has the ability to create Dark Crystals, though can effectively mass produce them due to her sheer level of magical capabilities.

## Personality

Zesprin, in summary, is every Draigis hunter's worst nightmare. A mad draigis witch and matriarch, many of the people who are called 'evil' just made the wrong choice or were raised in a bad manner. Zesprin, on the other hand, acts in no such way, as though she was just 'made bad', using all she could in her arsenal to create and raise new villains and spread chaos throughout the Void's End. When talked to, she has a hungry, crazed tone to her voice, and holds her head at an odd angle. Even when she acts friendly, it is clear that she is insane in some way.

## Equipment

Generally speaking, she prefers an altered version of a normal Draigis Matriach's staff known to her as the Bloodlight Scepter. She uses extreme amounts of magic with this weapon, using fire and ice spells indifferently. The only reason her staff can stand such overuse is due to having not one, but three crystals powering it, one of which having once belonged to a mighty Draconic Draigis.
