The Frostspire
I am but a fragment of the tundra’s will, a sentinel bound in frost. My purpose is clear—to guard, to endure, and to ensure that the Abyss’s shadow does not engulf the light.

Race: Frost-touched Dragonborn
Occupation: Guardian of the Shard Sea, Keeper of Frozen Truths
Physical Description
Krynn is an imposing figure, their icy-blue scales shimmering like crystalline frost under the tundra’s pale light. Their eyes glow with a faint white luminescence, and their breath often mists in frigid air, exuding an aura of perpetual cold. Jagged horns crown their head, encased in frost that never melts, and their massive frame is draped in ancient, rune-marked armor that seems fused with ice itself.
Krynn wields a colossal greataxe, Frostrend, forged from a shard of pure glacial ice, its blade emanating a biting chill. Their deep, gravelly voice carries the weight of centuries and commands attention, though they speak sparingly.
Personality
Krynn is a figure of stoic resolve and quiet wisdom, carrying the weight of their ancient duty with a solemn grace. Though seemingly cold and detached, they possess a fierce loyalty to the tundra and a deep compassion for its inhabitants.
They often serve as a mediator between warring factions, using their reputation and authority to maintain peace. However, their patience has limits, and when roused to anger, Krynn is a force of unrelenting destruction.
History
Little is known about Krynn’s origins, as their tale is shrouded in legend. Some say they were once a proud warrior of a long-lost dragonborn clan, sworn to defend the tundra. During a catastrophic battle with an ancient Abyssal entity, Krynn sacrificed their mortal warmth to seal the creature beneath the Shard Sea.
In exchange for their act of heroism, Krynn was cursed—or blessed—by the tundra’s primal forces, transforming into the Icebound, an eternal guardian tied to the frozen expanse. They have since become a living myth, appearing only in times of great peril to protect the tundra from threats that would disrupt its balance.
Krynn is most often sighted near the Shard Sea, where they vigilantly patrol its treacherous ice fields and frozen caverns, ensuring the Abyssal entity they sealed remains trapped.
