The Voice of the Ages

The Voice of the Ages is a fiction oneshot ran by Darrell.  

Deep beneath the barren wastes of the world rests one of its oldest creatures—so old, in fact, that he has forgotten his own name. This storm dragon has come to be known simply as the Voice of the Ages or Xaantikorijek in draconic. Once every few centuries, however, Xaantikorijek remembers a detail about his lost history. It is said that when this happens, his voice resounds worldwide as he relays the fact to all dragonkin. Recently, Xaantikorijek’s voice has begun to reverberate through dragonkind across the timescape, signaling the elder dragon’s recovery of a new memory. This has resulted in more frequent and vicious dragon attacks everywhere. Nations have pooled their resources, offering your party 200,000 gp to find the Voice of the Ages in his lair and learn what prompted the attacks.

Important NPCs

Xaantikorijek - the voice of the ages, a master of thunder and lightning, and as part of the first brood to hatch on the Mundane World, he predates most of his surviving kin. Legend holds that the Voice of the Ages once knew a secret that could remake the Mundane World in whatever form they choose—but the aging wyrm remembers very little of his own past. Whether this was the cost of surviving the doom that befell the Dragons of old, a self-imposed condition, or some other magical malady, is unknown even to Xaantikorijek. Once every few centuries, however, Xaantikorijek remembers a detail about his lost history. It is said that when this happens, his voice resounds worldwide as he relays the fact to all dragonkin. The dragons eagerly hope he may someday remember how to reforge the world with dragons as rulers.   Sunlight Legion - a group of fire giants. They believe that assisting Xaanitikorijek in recovering his memories will allow them to find the secrets to enlightenment.  

Important Locations

The Glass Cavern - Xaanitikorijek’s lair made from sand superheated into glass. Miles beneath the deserts at the edge of the world these caverns serve as a monument to his extensive and forgotten past. Colorful striations in the glass walls chronicle deep, seismic changes in the desert’s composition as the Mundane World took shape, and various notes, drawings, and runes scrawled by Xaantikorijek over the eons document his pursuit of his lost memories
