Scales of Hurguulich

draco-lich

I worked on filling out some background on Syrtis's Deathguard Plate, and of course this took on a life of its own with links to a legendary green dragon named Hurguulich.  This beast didn't originally have such a wicked name, that happened after she was duped into meeting with the primordial Maen Grirngrim. 

You see up until that point, this primordial had been experimenting with younger and weaker dragons, all in the hopes of creating an undead dragon that would serve him.  Once this necromantic magic was perfected, he hoped to then create an army of draco-liches. 

Hurguulich became the first draco-lich.  The dark art of turning a dragon into a draco-lich has been perfected since the time of the primordials.  It no longer needs a legendary dragon for it to work, now it works on just about any dragon.
