Golias

Article written by Uziel


Golias (? - 352 AC) was a general in the Dragonarmies. Late in the War of the Lance, with the death of Highmaster Zanark Kreiss, the ambitious General Golias was given his opportunity and promoted to the role of Highmaster. With the defeat of the dragonarmies in Neraka, Golias increasingly became vocal about Lucien of Takar's failures and questioned his ability to lead. Not daring to openly attack or challenge the Highlord, instead Golias formed a faction within the Black Dragonarmy, of those loyal to him who would stand against Lucien. Golias then had the Highlord murdered and prepared to take his place. However Highmaster Marcus Cadrio, enraged with the death of his friend and master, had his own loyal soldiers openly attack and kill Golias. With the death of the traitor, his loyalists vanished and Cadrio assumed full control of the army.
