Frozen Corpse

The Frozen Corpse is the lifeless corpse of a dead Titan in Antarctica, preserved excellently due to the extremely low temperatures and the lack of Human (or otherwise) interference. It is situated on the Antarctic Plateau (or Polar Plateau), near to the south pole, which is almost completely barren and experiences some of the lowest natural temperatures on the planet. The Frozen Corpse was discovered by Urilian explorer Dozen fel Ammona on his famous Antarctic expedition. It is the only evidence of the Titans to exist anywhere outside of the continent of Inecuria.

Dozen's description of the Corpse was not particularly detailed given that he did not want to linger in the extremely hostile environment of the Antarctic Plateau - not to mention that the body was covered in snow - but subsequent expeditions and satellite imaging have captured a more accurate picture. The Frozen Corpse is humanoid in shape, with the standard two arms and two legs, and lies on its left side curled up in a foetal position. The Corpse's body is covered in a white segmented exoskeleton, and the slivers of flesh which show between the joints are a dark and deep shade of blue. The Corpse's eyes are shut, and will likely remain so indefinitely, as they are frozen in place and attempting to open them may cause permanent damage. Although there is some deviation in the estimates, the Corpse's body from toe to head is estimated to be approximately 26 metres (85.3 feet).

On the left side of the Corpse's abdomen, the side on which it lays, is a large wound which punctured through the exoskeleton. The interior of this wound has frozen solid and does not allow for investigation of the Corpse's interior. The lack of decomposers in the environment has meant that the blood from this wound has been preserved; digging through the levels of snow which have fallen since the Corpse lay there revealed a vast patch of blood soaked into the ice, covering an area a little under a square mile. The salty trails coming from the Corpse's eyes, and the elevated salt content in the surrounding ice, also means the Corpse was crying profusely when it died.

The Corpse bears two items alongside its body. The first is a straight double-edged sword with a Mageglass blade and a handle made of a material that resembles silver (but is quite clearly not actual silver), which proportional to the Corpse's size could be labelled a longsword (or alternatively hand-and-a-half or bastard sword). The second is a relatively modest but still elaborate crown forming a band around the Corpse's head, made of the same silver-like material found on the handle of the sword, with a large polished star sapphire inlaid at the front.

Most Elvetans are completely convinced that the Frozen Corpse is the body of King Alveron, the ancient co-monarch of the pantheon who was mortally wounded by his brother King Yacela in the War for Heaven, before the latter immediately realised his mistake and begged his brother for forgiveness through tears, which Alveron granted shortly before his death. Alveron was then laid to rest by Yacela in "a place where his royal body could not be defiled" - the fact that the Frozen Corpse is in perhaps the most hostile environment on the entire planet makes perfect sense to the Elvetans. Further enhancing this theory is the fact that the Frozen Corpse wears a crown and carries a sword, which are both things that Alveron were never seen without. However, the existence of blood and tears in the surrounding ice suggests that the battle between them either occurred in Antarctica, or that Alveron remained alive a little longer than the Elvetan scripture suggests, long enough for Yacela to take him to Antarctica before he finally perished. Other religions are more cautious about the narrative that the Frozen Corpse is Alveron, but it is generally agreed that it is entirely possible that the Titan known as Alveron - which they say the Elvetan deity was based upon - is in fact the Frozen Corpse.
