Vardok

Vardok was a black dragon and mate of Ashe. Together the two dragons had created a home for themselves by taking over the Emerald Grove.

Ashe and Vardok were allied with Ulric de Mowbray. Ashe and Vardok were encouraged to hunt down Maia and kill her in order to draw out Gwen, and by extension the rest of the group. Following Ashe’s death, Ulric met with Vardok again, offering him greater powers through the use of a large black rock. Vardok accepted this power and became a black shadow dragon once a spear-like shard of the black rock had been impaled into his chest.

When the party tried to bait Vardok into a battle he instead used their absence to attack the City of Valamer. Vardok managed to kill and raise a significant number of people who were fleeing the city by using his devastating new breath weapon. Upon the arrival of the party, Vardok met them in battle, destroying the Heart of the World and killing many of its residents.

In battle, Gwen was able to remove the black rock spear from Vardok’s chest, significantly weakening the dragon.
