Thiovan, the Dreamer
The Dragon God of Dreams
The Dreamer, the Dragon God who ushered all mortals into his realm when they closed their eyes and drifted into slumber. He was there to be a balm against their troubles by delighting them with things only they could imagine. Conversely was there to give stories of terror that were certain to awaken even the most weary from a deep sleep. The races of Ransera knew him well for he visited them nightly with dreams of wonder, nightmares of terror, or with revelations of secrets that lead to many great things. It is said that the Lord of the Gem Dragons knew every dream, every nightmare and every secret hidden within them. He knew the aspirations, hopes, and fears of everyone and everything in all the planes...including the gods.
Thiovan always had a small but dedicated following. The Dreamweavers rallied to the side of their god with unshakable loyalty during the Heavenswar. Utilizing their gifts, the Dreamweavers visited key followers of the Stonelords and either rendered them insane with nightmares or killed them outright through their dreams. At some point however, the Dreamweavers simply vanished. Whether it was because the Stonelords found a way to expunge them or because Thiovan ordered them into seclusion, it is unclear. No Dreamweavers have been seen or heard from ever since.
Of all the Dragon Gods, Thiovan had always been the most mysterious. His manifestation into the physical realm had been so rare that many believed he would be impossible to defeat. Indeed, the Stonelords did not defeat Thiovan, not truly. Legends say that Thiovan simply appeared to Heathra the Mystic, said to be the wisest of the Stonelords. He arrived without warning or fanfare. A stunned Heathra prepared to defend herself but found there was no need. Thiovan gave to her his heart which was placed within her Heartstone and died. This turn of events baffled the Stonelords…except Heathra.
Thiovan was the ninth Dragon God to fall but his demise brought only uncertainty. After this, the wise Heathra became rather secluded. By the time Eikaen was killed she had vanished completely…taking her Heartstone with her.
