Physical Description

Adamant Dragon is a colossal man, even by exalted standards, he stands 6'8" and weighs nearly 300 lbs. of solid muscle. However, his massive frame is not his most distinct and recognizable feature. The 25 year old western native is most notorious for his unique gray-blue skin color, a color associated with the water surrounding the Darkmist Shadowland. This gives him the reputation of being demon blooded, though there is no truth to the rumor, his dark hair and sharp features contribute to the intimidating appearance. Adamant Dragon's apparel is unlike most native westerners, wearing trousers and boots along with a black, high collared buff jacket even through the hot summer months. Slung across his back rests his mighty grand daiklave, the blade is typically covered by a thin white cloth to hide its true nature from anyone educated well enough to recognize it.

Background

A wealthy merchant and trader had made his way too far west and drifted his boat into the depths of the Wyld where the turbulent ocean water turns to blood and cries out for the mortal lives foolish enough to find themselves there. When they came across the remains of a destroyed ship, they did not expect to find any survivors, rather they expected they too would soon be another ship that went missing in the Wyld. However, much to their surprise they found an infant boy floating among the shipwreck, the human looking boy seemed to be just fine except for one feature, his skin had been turned gray-blue in color. Feeling they couldn't abandon the boy to the Wyld, even if he was part of it, they took him aboard the ship and gave him medical care; all this despite still believing they would never return to the stable lands of creation. Defying the odds the ship and its crew sailed out of the Wyld lands before nightfall hit, they thought of leaving the boy behind but the captain insisted he had been a sign of good fortune so the merchant took the boy in to become one of his slaves.

The boy went unnamed for many years after that, serving his master diligently as he had always been told how the master had sparred his life. The wealthy merchant and slave owner treated his slaves well and most of all took care of the boy, who had always had an aura of magnificence about him despite whispers of his cursed appearance. As he grew into adolescence Adamant Dragon's natural strength started to become evident and after a scuffle in the yard with a much older man the wealthy merchant decided that Adamant Dragon would be best served as a gladiator. After several months of combat training Adamant Dragon began to compete in organized pit fighting, at first only as a side responsibility to his other duties, but as he showed his promise fighting started to become his only purpose. Over a time of several years Adamant Dragon started to make a name for himself among Coral pit fighters, a 'sport' that was incredibly popular in this region. Adamant Dragon began to become known as Danna'd's Wrath among the people of Coral who said that the great elemental dragon himself had possessed him, little did they know this couldn't have been further from the truth.

After many years of fighting Adamant Dragon had grown to have a mutual respect with his merchant owner who served more like his agent than his slave owner, however most if not all of his winnings still went to the merchant. As he became famous Adamant Dragon started to travel about the west, fighting in big events all across the region, even fighting a single high profile fight in The Realm. While on a trip through the Isles of the west the ship was blown astray by a strong storm, pushing the ship and its crew westward into the Wyld. While in the bordermarches of the Wyld the ship was attacked by raiding fairfolk, the crew tried to fight off the marauders , but it was not until Adamant Dragon joined the fight and suddenly exalted that they were able to defeat the fae. After his exaltation Adamant Dragon was taken with new purpose, one that could no longer be accomplished as a slave. He spoke with his owner who was now in his debt for saving his life and his ship, not to mention fearful that he would incur the wrath mighty solar gladiator. They reached an agreement and Adamant Dragon was dropped off in one of the protectorates of Coral, now a free man.
