Tyrax

General

• Area: The Tower of Despair
• Status: Pacifist

Description

Unflinching against the rains and mists of the swamp, Tyrax maintains
his solemn vigil at the Dark Gate.  His tabard, bearing the mark of a paladin 
of Thoric, is tattered and mudstained.  The well-oiled armor caked with bits
of muck and pieces of leaves.
His face has grown hardened and creased as he stands alone on his watch.  His
gaze remains unflinchingly on Orcus' Dark Tower.

Equipment

• a Silver Sword

Notes

Known responses:

• You say 'Lyrax'

Tyrax nods solemnly.
Tyrax looks off to the east.
Tyrax says 'Lyrax is a druid who has silently watched the woods for longer than I have stood here.  He chose his path for duty to the world.  His calling is true.'
Tyrax scowls angrily.
Tyrax says 'Unlike mine.'

• You say 'Hastur'

Tyrax closes his eyes.
Tyrax says 'Speak not the name of Orcus' lackey.  Twas he that slew
my companions.  Twas he who forced my choice and ruined my life.
Forsaken by my own pride to guard this spot for eternity.  Speak no more
of this to me.  I wish not the memory.
Tyrax' eyes open and fix again on the Tower.

• You say 'Orcus'

Tyrax snarls angrily.
Tyrax says 'If it were not for that foul beast, I would still...
Tyrax glowers with hate brimming in his eyes.
Tyrax says 'This anger cost me much before.  I will learn patience.

• You say 'Blackmote'

Tyrax says 'Poor fool Blackmote.  He does not comprehend that
his Master, whether alive or dead, is gone.  Still he guards the
Tower, maintaining the prison and keeping the experiments contained.'

• You say 'Covenant'

Tyrax shakes its head.
Tyrax says 'Nay, no legend I know of speaks of a Covenant.  Though
some travellers ages back spoke of a beast named the Covenant
Hebredite. It was a beast that ravaged all of Darkhaven, they say.'
Tyrax shrugs helplessly.
Tyrax says 'Some said it had something to do with the Shattering, but
I can not say for certain that is true.'
