Nidhoggr

Nidhoggr or Nidhogg is a Dragon villain from Norse mythology that first appeared in the book the Autistic Hero 2: Worlds Clashing. It is one of the dragon children of Orochiuchus that betrayed him and became evil on his own after figuring out he could get stronger by biting the roots of Yggdrasil, The Tree of Life. During the events of the story Nidhoggr is shown to be guarding the The Supreme Cosmos Spellcaster with the intention of one day using it to take over the tree and chew all of it and the damned souls from the rest of the norse realm. It is one of the strongest villainous dragons that isn't under influence and much like the Red Dragon of Revelations it is acting on purpose to do evil.

## Biology

The Nidhoggr is a black dragon which is seemingly a Serpentine dragon with horns similar to tree roots which grow bigger every time it bites the tree of life. Nidhoggr has a forked tongue in its mouth and sharp teeth which are enchanted to be able to chew the souls of the damned which he uses to help him master magics. The creature also has green eyes and glowing green insides which glow brighter every soul it chews. The creature also is able to maneuver around the tree's roots as fast as flying dragons and to support its weight has four back legs which the claws of the back feet are shaped like roots so it can stay in place while nibbling upside down tree roots. The creature also has a set of dark green tethered wings which ravel up like that of a kite and expand in an instant. The creature is pretty much intelligent because it chews the souls of "Sinners" without mercy and it reaches a length of 210 meters long and its wings are 180 meters in length. The creature also weighs 330,000 metric tons.

## History

Nidhoggr was one of the ancient sons of Orochiuchus the dragon god that instead of becoming a good dragon became a vile betrayer whenever It discovered the nine realms and the powerful sap from the tree of life. This dragon because of its arrogance and evil deed was not possessed by the Primordial Anger and instead took pride in biting sinners that weren't so much as sinners. Eventually he discovered The Supreme Cosmos Spellcaster in the dead center of the tree's roots which was when its evil heart went blacker and began to dedicate itself to controlling it. Years pass and the dragon is seeing the goblet get taken by biblically accurate angels and he manages to kill 2 but the others take the goblet and he is sealed but he continues to chew on those angels souls. Years pass and the christian god is forced to surrender in 4050 by the hands of the earth's heroes and it is awoken after God lifts the sealing in an attempt of humans fearing too much. Nidhoggr of course goes back to chewing the souls of the damned angels until hero Xenith Stephenson obtains the Dragon God's pearl and it tells him that there are some souls being held hostage and chewed on by his son Nidhoggr and Xenith sets out to find and help those tortured souls. He manages to get whereabouts on the location by the now reincarnated Cain and Able and unexpectedly is lead to a portal to the nine realms by Ultimalonyx The Dominion after he had recently freed her from mind slavery. He encounters Nidhoggr and at first Nidhoggr thinks he is a demon because of his horns but the second that the dragon saw him eyeing the goblet it roared at him and attacked, the roar was a mixture of both a dragons roar and souls screaming. The dragon attacks him since it momentarily disabled Xenith since he hates loud noises and its claw quickly slashes a chunk of flesh off his chest. Xenith counterattacked with A finger star pointed at its eyes but it darted around the holes and gaps in the roots to avoid him, occasionally it snaps at him from random angles and also sprays him with a Soul Beam of flames which screaming souls can be seen in the beam. The dragon would have subdued xenith if Ultimalonyx didn't burst through the roots and bite down on its neck with all its heads. The two goods defeated Nidhoggr after Xenith Sends his Titan Slaying Sword into its neck and then drags it from its chin to its tail which makes souls and its insides flee in relief. Nidhoggr is killed and the souls of those who it had chewed had successfully gotten to earth and now were reincarnating.
