Lords of The Red Tower
The lord emperor of the Dragonkin empire is Hurthyric of the Red Tower. Over a century ago, he ascended the throne – delivering, as he proclaimed, the righteousness of Tiamat from the Far Realm – where he had been held in stasis for the past thousand years. Since that time he has rained endless fire and war upon the humans armies of the South. The Front, long entrenched, deep and blanketed in the blood of the fallen, will soon break. So says the prophecies of the Red Court, in fact, it has all unfolded exactly by his plan.
There are five main, noble houses, or Voltain, from the Red Tower of Hurthyric. These five predate the coming of the Tiamat Revelation. Corinthyric is the oldest of the Voltain. Master Onok is the Lord of the Howling Wind and is the only Venerable Fang on the Court. Ablithox is the Lord of The Ferrunok, House of Sword Tooth, and the venerable, maned-dragon, Aergressin is a constant objector to lord Hurthyric’s plans to expand the empire. Babrinilox is lord of the Othymot, House of Obsidian, and is the commander of a large cabal of elementalists – dark and wise, who in turn, command a large army of earth and fire elementals. Malphareneth is the lord of Uthrot, the House of the Fire Heart and the General of the Red Ring – those responsible for training all the soldier gladiators in Tiamat’s Army. HaelRenMeh is lord of ThanMa, the House of the Spearhead and slaving is their purview – with Fire Giants as slaves, this house is responsible for arming the legion with the products of the great forges in their charge.
