Biography

This section has been marked as astub. Please help improve the page by adding information.

In his youth, Sombron was banished from another world toElyos. He was accompanied by anEmblem that has since left him. Supposedly, he learned from that Emblem that solitude was the path to power, a lesson he took to heart.

A millennium before the events ofEngage, Sombron fought with theDivine Dragons, notablyLumera, in a bloody war. Sombron wished to conquer Elyos and move on to other worlds. Lumera states that Sombron wished to conquer these worlds as well, while Sombron instead claimed he wished to find his lost Emblem and return home, though it is possible these were ultimately the same goals in the end. He used his numerousFell Dragon children, that he deliberately bred for this purpose, as pawns of war. Despite his defeat, he injured Alear grievously as a result of their battle.

Even with his defeat,Elusia maintained a religious sect that held him as their patron god.

Personality

This section has been marked as astub. Please help improve the page by adding information.

Sombron is generally subdued and evenly spoken. He has little regard for those around him, including his own spawn, which he consider to be fodder for war and naught else. Sombron considers bonds such as friendship and family to be symptoms of weakness. Contrary to this, one of his only goals is to reunite with hisEmblem, the Emblem of Foundations.

His production of children seems to have been entirely contractual, and he holds no affections-romantic or otherwise-for any of the mothers of his children. One ofZephia's motivations for serving was to have the chance of producing a child with him, which he seemed intent to fulfill as a transactional gesture, but otherwise he did not have a personal investment in the idea.
