Therragorn is the last surviving white dragon. Like the rest of her kind, who were hunted to extinction for their hides, Therragorn's children and mate included, she is capable of travelling between worlds and isn't as aggressive as conventional dragons. She bears a deep grudge against Kerapac and his fellow Dragonkin for discarding the white dragons as failed experiments and abandoning them.

History

Early history

Like the other white dragons, Therragorn was created by the Dactyl by modifying the Queen Black Dragon's eggs. Although they were not bound by Jas' curse, the white dragons were deemed too weak and thus failures. Therefore, the Dragonkin abandoned them.

During the God Wars, the white dragons would live solitarily, rarely communicating with one another. This would prove ultimately fatal to them; they were hunted and skinned continually, for white dragonhide creates extremely durable armour for archers. Due to their lack of communication, the remaining dragons discovered the fate of their kin too late, when the race had already been driven to near-extinction. Eventually, Therragorn was the only white dragon remaining.

In despair, she went to Shakorexis, the three-headed King Black Dragon, for help. He agreed to save her, bringing her to a secluded cave beneath old ruins in the north-east of the Wilderness, where she was sealed. Therragorn would remain there for several thousands of years.

Discovery and Journey to Iaia

Therragorn has visitors.

In the first year of the Sixth Age, Shakorexis granted his old rider Hannibus and his human friend access to Therragorn's cave because they were looking for a way to return Hannibus to his homeworld Iaia and had learnt that white dragons were able to travel between dimensions effortlessly. As the two met with Therragorn, she was initially hostile and distrustful, especially towards the human adventurer, but calmed down upon learning of Hannibus' identity, for he was held in revere by the dragon race.

Therragorn explained that she could bring Hannibus home but would not leave her cave, being the last of her kind. At that moment, three dragon hunters entered the cave, having secretly trailed the adventurer and Hannibus. Their leader expressed desire to kill Therragorn for her skin, and was even more inclined to do so after being informed that she was the last white dragon, stating her hide would be worth even more. The adventurer attacked him and his two cronies, killing the three hunters. Therragorn, however, was furious at her location being exposed and realised she had no choice but to leave her sanctuary and help her visitors.

Hannibus and the adventurer mounted Therragorn as she exited the cave and together they flew to the south. However, dragonfire hit the trio when flying over Daemonheim and Therragorn had to crash-land. She sustained minor injuries, while the grievously wounded Hannibus and his better-off friend, both unconscious, were taken by none other than Kerapac, who brought them to his laboratory underneath the castle.

Therragorn flew to Iaia, the Ilujanka's realm, and informed if anyone knew Hannibus. His great great great great granddaughter Sharrigan responded and flew to Gielinor on Therragorn's back.

Meanwhile, the adventurer woke up and was forced to help Kerapac with his research in exchange for the Dragonkin healing Hannibus. Kerapac proceeded to offer Hannibus to attempt and cure his infertility for the benefit of both races, although he emphasised it may take a very long time and there might not be a cure at all.

As Hannibus and the adventurer returned to the surface to think, they met with Therragorn and Sharrigan, who were happy to see the two alive. Sharrigan informed her kinsman of the Ilujanka's persistent infertility and how they had begun planning the race's extinction. She said they would be honoured if he would return home and be with them, being old and weary himself. Kerapac then arrived, pleasantly surprised that Therragorn had survived the crash, and reminded the Ilujanka of his offer. Therragorn stated that the Dragonkin was an egotistic liar but that the offer was tempting nonetheless. Hannibus turned to his friend for help, who offered their advice, which Hannibus heeded. Therragorn was then invited to return to Iaia to live with the Ilujanka until the end, which she gladly accepted. She travelled there with Sharrigan and, depending on the adventurer's choice, Hannibus, presumably never to return.
