Archdragons

 Seemed as if it turned to night, it did. Bloody thing was so huge not a single beam of the sun could reach the earth. It 's wings created hurricanes and storms with each flap. It's voice thundered across nations. It's wrath wreaked havoc upon all the lands under the sun. Never before have I seen such a thing of size and power. It was like a flying mountain with a breath of fire. Where ever it went, death and chaos closely followed. 

-Baine Athelmyr, writer of Egririyon, the last seen Archdragon

Archdragons are without a doubt the most powerful dragons to have ever existed. They are hailed as divine beings by some due to their size and power. An Archdragon is said to cover the sun with his body and to tower over mountains. It is also said that not a single being on Gelduran is more intelligent than an Archdragon. Elven legends say that these beings live on the clouds, and that they are living representations of the Bright Ones.

The last Archdragon was Egririyon the Calamity of Gelduran, who wreaked havoc upon the lands during a century long period of fire and blood. Egririyon was finally 'defeated' by a coalition of all Civil Races, who then managed to entrap Egririyon in a gigantic underground cave known as the Prison of Errasant.

Egririyon is not the last Archdragon. Few still remain, roaming the forgotten fringes of Gelduran and perhaps beyond.
