Legends passed down in Soumercan tribes speak of the Drallmauth--a creature said to despise life, taking the form of what it faces in mockery as it thrashes about. Only the strongest of silver chains can weaken it, yet it cannot hold the Drallmauth forever, as the metal weakens with time, starting a fresh cycle of destruction in the continent. The most recent defeat was at the hands of an echidna silversmith, who was able to reforge new chains and whittle it down to be reheld. The creature has recently broke free once more, ready to level the forests of Soumerca into a desolate wasteland.
The name given to him comes from ancient tribes in the region, referring to the snake-like behavior of his markings and such--the name references an ancient basilisk god.
