All Around Lore - Akriloth: A Peer Review

“When I heard of Akriloth’s death, I wasn’t exactly surprised. The Greats have no shortage of pride, but even we were taken aback by his intense hatred for ‘lower lifeforms.’ Akriloth didn’t just want to conquer them. He wanted them to suffer."

“In my younger years…I may have liked…to do certain things that my current close friends generally frown upon. But even back then, I found it unpleasant to be around the Great Dragon of Fire. His desire to make the weak burn and suffer was all he could talk about." - Volgritian

“Your recollection, Volgritian, is selective and uncharitable. Though Akriloth and I have fought on more than one occasion, there was a time when he cherished his Dragonlords. His fall is all the more piteous...and despicable. *sigh* Such is the nature of Fire Dragons.” -Hyonix

Volgritian: You’re one to talk, considering how -

Dekanor: Akriloth’s mate was very ugly.

Volgritian: Oh.

Hyonix: What’s wrong with you?

Dekanor: Why not? It's true. Akriloth had the hots for ugly Dragons. Where are you going? I thought this was the hate-on-Akriloth session.

The Obsidian Remnant

Curious, the text clearly implies that there were other survivors from Akriloth's eruption beside Tipu and Ahisma from Pelekoa. A fact that would run counter to what was laid out in the Jaania's Thorn design note that outlined that the two bodyguards were the last Pelekoans left alive after the calamity that devastated Maar.

Which begs a question: are these revengers potentially still alive or did Akriloth eventually kill them as well prior, or perhaps during, the beginning of the Fire War?

If the reality is the former than perhaps there is still some hope that the culture of Pelekoa can still survive on, although I do wonder if these revengers might eternally be seeking out every incarnation of Akriloth to kill them or not. If the truth is the latter however, then it remains still among the highest tragedies that Tipu and Ahisma were killed.

WE FINALLY HAVE AN ITEM THAT REFERNCES DEKANOR!!!!

Today I was seized by the part of my brain that demands answers, and so I found the sizes for some of DF’s dragons. All sizes are assuming the Hero is 6 ft tall, so feel free to edit based on your individual Hero’s height.

From these pictures, I deduced that Draco is 48 ft tall, 60 ft long, with a 170 ft wingspan.

Think that’s big? You haven’t seen anything yet.

From these, I discovered that Akriloth is very under-sold in our fights with him, as he is actually 210 ft tall, 260 ft long, with a 740 ft wingspan. Absolutely MASSIVE. More than four times Draco’s size.

But that’s nothing.

We unfortunately don’t have any pics of GenoKratos’s full body. But from these pics, we can find that their heads alone, from chin to the very top of what the screenshot lets us see, are 560 ft tall (plant head) and 504ft tall (stone head). Their heads alone are more than twice as tall as Akriloth, and more than ten times taller than Draco. I can only imagine how big their full body must be.

I hope you have enjoyed these little tidbits. I know I did. Because if there is one thing I love more than dragons, it is ridiculously oversized dragons.

[After the Fire War]

Warlic: Well, Akriloth’s dead, but don’t worry. History has shown that that sort of thing almost never leads to massive destabilization or world wars.

Here’s a shitty meme I made in Facebook Messenger in like a minute

[tomixslefttoe]

Galanoth: This is Akriloth we’re talking about. He’s the toughest there is.

The Hero: Well, he’s never fought me.

Yulgar: Yeah, he has.

The Hero: He’s never fought me twice.
