Xulrad the Behemoth

Xulrad the Behemoth is the largest living dragon in Novisprium.

No one knows where Xulrad began his life, all we know is that one day he appeared in the mountains of Udenham on the 7th of April 2214.

History of Xulrad:

7th April 2214: Xulrad's first appearance in the Haldinor Mountains. He was a rough 107 meters long and had a wingspan of roughly 98 meters when he was first seen.

25th May 2214: Xulrad swooped down on a group of 40 explorers in their all-terrain vehicle, he obliterated it and killed all the explorers except for 2. One of those 2 exploreres would later die from his wounds. The explorer reported that they had taken a blue plant from up in the mountains, and thinks that Xulrad was looking for it judging by the way Xulrad poked his snout around in the All-terrain vehicle and flying off with it.

29th June 2214: Xulrad swooped down on the city of Pathihan, his had grown considerably, he was now 197 meters long and had a wingspan of 200 meters long. He leveled half the city and buried it with flames, before flying away.

5th July 2214: the military officially declared war upon Xulrad and special forces was sent to fight Xulrad. 10,000 AKS T7s were sent, along with 5000 Shriker prototypes.

7th August 2214: Xulrad was found, he was 214 meters in length, and 200 in wingspan still. The military engaged with Xulrad, but Xulrad, being so large, destroying half the fleet, but back up came in the form of the elite vanguard, 5000 Namika 4s were sent, and managed to beat Xulrad back.

9th September 3265: Xulrad emerged from underneath the mountain of Haldinor, he hasnt been seen in nearly a millenia but now he was back, larger than ever. 370 meters in length and with a wingspan of 400 meters. His roar could be heard all over Udenham.

1st January 3266: Xulrad attacked the captiol of Udenham: Taralinor, the attack caused an estimated 1,243,555 loss in lives and a rough 2.3 trillion in property damage. Xulrad made his nest under a couple of fallen buildings. This day is remembered as the new Year's day massacre.

2nd January 3266: from Arkris's sudden flight path change it is clear that he is heading for Udenham

3rd January 3266-7th August 3266: the military kept trying to fight and defeat Xulrad, but they were all thwarted.

1st September 3266: the greatest force ever witnessed by Udenham was gathered to repell Xulrad once and for all, a force of 20 Billion was assembled. they succeeded in trapping Xulrad under the rubbles of Taralinor, but he eventualy broke free and caused enough damage for the military to retreat.

3rd October3266: the great evacuation began, the military planned to ship everyone off the planet.

5th march 3277: the great evacuation was complete, everyone was off the planet, but a rough 0.065% of the population was missing

6th March3277 - 2nd August 3268: Xulrad was given free rein and destroyed many.

3rd August 3267 : Xulrad showed signs of going into hybernation

4th August 3267 -4th March 3268: xulrad in hybernation.

5th March 3268: Arkris landed at the ruins of Taralinor, awakening the slumbering Xulrad. Xulrad was the larger creature but Arkris was more power, he put Xulrad on the defensive. But Xulrad, being so large and old, could hold his own in a fight, and fought Arkris, but after a couple of hours Xulrad had to retreat. But Arkris pursued. Xulrad tried to fly through the atomsphere, he succeeded, but his wing membrane were burnt off so that he can no longer remain airborne, and plummeted towards the earth. Arkris did not finish Xulrad off, instead, after seeing Xulrad fall, he simply flew away. Xulrad, being so heavy and large, his fall caused the tectonic plates to move and cause massive magnitutde 8 earthquakes all over half the planet, causing volcanic eruptions around the planet, shooting millions of tons of volcanic ash into the atomosphere, plunging the planet into a volcanic winter and dropping the tempreture to below freezing point. Xulrad, at this point, was either knocked out or asleep, we do not know for certain, but Xulrad is indeed very much still alive, just not moving, his heartbeat and breathing slowed down and it appears that he either was unconscious or else in a similar state to hybernation.

14th March 3268: The PDP (planetary defence protocol) was put into action, 3 ALT 2B Star Destroyers fly around the planet at all times to prevent Xulrad from re-awakening and bring carnage upon all. The citizens of the planet were evacuated on a couple of Zephyr ships, so the planet is completely abandoned.

25th April 3267: Xulrad still displays signs of life, and his body has been shown to keep growing even while he is in hybernation. scientists deduce that Xulrad may grow up to be 480 meters in length in the next millennia or so.

26th September 3268: Some desperate people returned to Udenham to live there

5th October 3298: Udenham's population grew very slowly, not many people wishes to lvie there, but the few thousands at udenham modestly rebuilt itself in the form of little wood houses amongst the rubble. They dared not mak too ambitious projects for fear of awakening Xulrad.

1st January 4200: Udenham's population reached 10,000. Xulrad showed no signs of awakening.
