Abzun

> "*There are many impressive dragons, many have mountains of gold, ended civilizations and are immortalized at least somewhere across the realms. But none are as impressive as the dragon of all dragons himself, Abzun. Abzun who has planets of riches, Abzun who has ended civilizations that have crossed the stars all by himself, Abzun who is remembered so vividly by all that live before, alongside and after him*"

**Drenak Tura Abzun** (dragon-tongue for *The Dreaded Soulblazer Abzun*) was the dragon of dragons, and dragon emperor of all of Gardkon. His scales were darker than the ocean's depths and his roar has shredded universes. He is also the husband of "main mate" of Timata and the father of the dragon Bakumorix.

He is infamous for his rebellion against Cromwellius and the gods, known as *The Defiance of the Dragons*. He is considered by Cromwellius himself to have been the mightiest dragon to have ever lived.

## The Defiance of the Dragons

Abzun was born in one of Gardkon's many solar pits. He was born in a particular one known as Hell's Eye, a smaller than average solar pit which comprised mostly of low-class dragons and dracokin. When Abzun was born, he was so huge his mother died during his birth, his father was the chief of Hell's Eye and died protecting it from invaders two centuries ago. Abzun suckled off his dead mother's teats and ate her flesh in order to survive.

Abzun would be found by his uncle, who was horrified when he discovered Abzun and decided to slay him. The young Abzun however had a fire in his eyes, ones which roared for blood. The young Abzun would jump at his uncle's throat and kill him as well.

After that not much else is known about Abzun, aside from him growing to such an enormous degree. This is most likely genetics (as he was already born huge) but at the same time the incredible exponential growth of his body seems to be the act of some sort of magic. Hell's Eye during the time of Abzun's reign was already discovered to be defunct, void of both life and flame, so some theorize Abzun grew by absorbing the solar energies.

Abzun would make a name for himself as a warlord in Gardkon, and he would eventually overthrow the reigning dragon emperor and have Timata as his mate.

### The Apostasy of Abzun

A black winter would fall upon Milruar, and soon that black winter became a great ash storm, and down from it would come a powerful dragon. The dragon was one with scales blacker than the darkest depths of the ocean, ones devoid of light. Feelings of dread would ripple across time and space, this was no ordinary dragon, it was the dragon emperor of Gardkon, Abzun. Abzun desired the throne of Cromwellius and envied how Gardkon was much more unpleasant compared to the paradise of Milruar.

Abzun would come with his many fiery dragon warriors, dragons on par with the gods, and demand Cromwellius to step down, for the gods and the dragons to switch realms and that the dragons were to reign supreme or else face his wrath.

Cromwellius did not take the dragon's demand lightly and stand his ground. Abzun would perform his battleroar, deafening the many gods around them and sending a chill up the spine of Fear itself before the dragons and the gods began their mighty battle.

### The Judgement of Abzun

Abzun battled Cromwellius throughout time and space, their battle fracturing reality itself. Abzun however was on the winning side, his strength bore down upon the All-Father and soon the All-Father can endure it no longer. Cromwellius would fire his signature firearm into his chest and send him straight into Urthar. The scent of his wife's blood, a scent so distinct and special to him, filled his nostrils, and from there he was sent into rage.

He would sink his jaws once more into Cromwellius' shoulder, before a chill would suddenly run up his spine. He and the All-Father would stop their fighting for a moment, both to look at a planet light years away, long was the distance but it was the closest one to them, a universeless planet. On it stood Banquolf, and he was casting his judgement. With a bolt of god-lightning as the symbol Abzun's roars of battle would become roars of pain as he was erased from existence.

## Trivia

* Abzun and his wife were named after Semitic gods, with Abzun being named after Abzu, a freshwater god.
* Abzun is a type of dragon known as a Yundri, meaning these dragons are four legged, have a pair of wings, breathe fire but lack venom and perform live-birth instead of laying eggs.
