![[ShiverfangPic.png]] # Shiverfang _Ancient White Dracolich | [[Dominion]] | Location Unknown_ ## Summary Winter's End—the most brutal member of the [[Dominion]], their instrument of annihilation. Embraces undeath as the ultimate expression of her philosophy: cold endures while warmth dies. While [[Vulkazar]] plots and [[Azurigon]] prophesies, Shiverfang simply kills. %% ## At a Glance Massive draconic skeleton of frosted bone, smaller than other Dominion members but radiating menace. Ice crystals form constantly on her bones only to shatter with each movement. Empty eye sockets burn with pale blue hatred. Frozen gore often dangles from her teeth mid-battle. Speaks in short, brutal sentences with a voice like cracking glaciers. Often howls wordlessly during combat despite no longer needing breath. Shows no patience for conversation beyond threats. Savage enforcer, utterly without mercy, finds joy only in freezing and shattering. ## Personality The Dominion's blunt instrument—no subtlety, just violence. Collects frozen heads of heroes who challenged the Dominion. Eats frozen corpses mid-battle to terrify enemies. First to volunteer for slaughter missions. Other Dominion members view her as their attack dog. She doesn't care. Her breath weapon flash-freezes from inside out—victims shatter when they fall. ## Quote _"Warm things die. Cold things serve. Choose."_ ## Background In life, ruled a domain she mockingly called the "Thawlands," having slain the elven druids and elemental spirits meant to bring spring to her frozen valley. She would freeze rivers to trap villages in isolation, breaking their spirits before her teeth did. Her philosophy was simple: cold endures, warmth dies, and she was cold incarnate. At [[Novularond]], she led the ground assault with savage efficiency, freezing defenders solid before shattering them. Death in that final battle only convinced her she was right—flesh failed, but frozen bone endured. Now resurrected by the Cult of the Dragon, she serves with even greater brutality. She views undeath as the perfection of her philosophy and eagerly awaits the world Vulkazar promises—eternal winter where only the frozen dead remain. ## Stats **Ancient White Dracolich.** Uses own frozen bones as weapons (can snap off ribs for ranged attacks). Breath weapon causes internal freezing—creatures killed shatter on impact. Lair actions focus on brutal ice formations rather than weather control. %%
