Fafnir

'' “Hail, great Uncle, two-blooded monster, born of Frost-giants, who took on our form! Hail son of Unbegotten, dragon-hearted, giant-blooded, slain of Sigurd, now returned! Hail Fafnír, Hriedmar’s son, incarnated by Road-power!” '' ''

--the acclamation of the Dragon-born after the reincarnation of Fafnir. ''

Fafnir, son of Hriedmar the Giant, was one of the two primeval Dragons, having shifted into dragon following the inclination of his fiery heart after acquiring the Nibelung Hoard by slaying his father. He came forth regularly to drink by bending over a thirty-fathom cliff. Sigurd dug a trench in the path, lying in it, then when Fafnir crawled over him Sigurd thrust. Dying Fafnir warned him maliciously about the curse, thus ensuring Sigurd would never heed him.

In December of 2011 the Dragon-born lured Ronnie out of his Burrville house and surrounded him in a ring of dancing dragons, breathing ash which fell in a magic pattern. Ronnie tried to use his earth-power, only for the glyph to steal it. He broke out of the circle and watched as the dragons called Fafnir into life using his Road-power. Fafnir and the dragon-born promptly vanished the second Lara was called by Ronnie, leaving her furious at being called for no reason and initiating the Battle of Burrville between Ronnie and Lara.

Fafnir is currently at large, preparing for Armageddon.
