Asmorium, Abyssal Archivist and Wyrmgod of Knowledge

Return to previous page.

Asmorium was the fourth Wyrmgod to awaken, and is often referred to as the Wyrmgod of Knowledge because of its strong desire to gain more information about the world. Within its domain of Agradath lies a massive, living structure, Asmorium archives all knowledge it obtains in the many brains of this "library". Some of this knowledge is simply related to Talveria and Varakai, while other parts of it are gained through various experiments it conducts using its Wyrms. The most infamous result of this experimentation is the Deadmouth, Asmorium created this Wyrm as a way to see if it was possible to turn physical matter into nonphysical matter.

While it would usually rather spend its time seeking out what Wyrms really are and why they exist, it has spent the last several decades researching ways it could stabilize Draalskot. Asmorium was approached by it as it was desperate to continue existing without having to actively maintain itself through spreading destruction.

Notes

Asmorium was originally designed around 2017-18 (I'll update this once I find the exact year) and has probably been through the most design changes of all the Wyrmgods. Before I made it a part of Talveria, it was simply a normal, if somewhat bizarre dragon. Once it became a part of Talveria, it didn't take me long to give it this intense need to know things, this originally manifested in it simply collecting knowledge in a vast, living "library", but now it also experiments with its Wyrms in order to discover the extent of what Ichor and sorcery can do.
