Pjirrik the Bronze

Pjirrik the Bronze was a bronze dragon from the Stardragon Sea. He was involved in helping return Undine from the void by using the last magic in his ring of three wishes to locate her obsidian prison sphere.

Pjirrik created the Bronze Navy to counter the threat of the Glavian Empire in Antipode in 2349 LA, eventually taking command of the resistance against Glavian occupation there. Pjirrik was slain by the kraken Seaeater in the final year of the Light Age at the Last Battle of Gold Mountain.

Personality

Pjirrik was noted to be gregarious and eager, even among bronze dragons. He also had a staunch belief in individual freedom, and resented the Glavian Empire's repression of persons and cultures. This noble streak, coupled with his draconic tendencies toward dominance and leadership, caused him to ally with the mortals of Antipode in an effort to resist the Empire.

For a dragon, Pjirrik was unusually impatient and curious. He was said to be "flitting", as Pjirrik's ally and legendary bard Zinrora Tyrros lovingly put it. It was this natural curiosity which got him involved in the affairs of mortals. His nobility, however, could not be denied even at the end, when he covered the escape of refugee ships from the massacre at Gold Mountain. Pjirrik bravely held off the primordial titan Seaeater long enough for several shiploads of refugees to escape, at the cost of his life.
