<p>Sync: new page from Dragonwilds</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{Infobox NPC|name=Karibdos, the Devourer|race=???}}<br /> ==History==<br /> Long before the dwarves arrived in [[Dragonwilds:Ashenfall]], an ancient and monstrous creature lay dormant beneath the [[Dragonwilds:Umbral Sands]], something that by any reasonable account simply shouldn&#039;t exist.{{CiteJournal|journal=Adamant Platebody|quote=It was a great beast that lay within the sands; some dread creature that should never have existed.}} When a dwarven expedition came upon the region&#039;s deposits of [[Dragonwilds:adamant]] and other treasures, their approach roused the slumbering beast, and it surged up in an attempt to swallow the entire party in a single strike.{{CiteJournal|journal=Adamant Platebody|quote=It was buried beneath the region, massive and hungry and, as the expedition approached, it opened wide its maw and attempted to swallow the entire group whole.}} Karibdos attacked by drawing its prey into a churning vortex of sand, and several explorers were lost to it before the rest could escape.{{CiteJournal|journal=Adamant Platebody|quote=With quick thinking and forgotten spells, Malgo summoned vines for the expedition members to grasp. Many failed and were consumed by the great vortex in the sand that was Karibdos.}} The survivors&#039; weapons couldn&#039;t pierce its hide, and the beast withdrew to its slumber to wait for another chance.{{CiteJournal|journal=Adamant Platebody|quote=Though they struck back, their arrows and spells were too weak to pierce its hide and Karibdos simply returned to its slumber, waiting for the expedition to cross its path again.}}<br /> <br /> With Karibdos barring the only way forward, the expedition turned back armed with adamant whose true strength had only just been discovered.{{CiteJournal|journal=Adamant Platelegs|quote=Karibdos was the obstacle between the rest of Ashenfall and a slow, defeated, trudge home.}} When it struck again, its teeth shattered against their armour and its hide tore apart under their blades where nothing else had succeeded.{{CiteJournal|journal=Adamant Platelegs|quote=They fell into the beast&#039;s great maw, but rather than a delicious dwarven meal, Karibdos found its teeth shattering against their armour and its ancient hide torn apart from flashing blades of green metal.}} No trace of a creature like Karibdos has surfaced in Ashenfall since its death, though some who live in the desert suspect that&#039;s only because no one has dug deep enough to find another.{{CiteJournal|journal=Adamant Platelegs|quote=For those who make the desert their home, none have witnessed anything like Karibdos again… though, perhaps, they simply haven&#039;t dug deep enough.}}<br /> ==References==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> [[Category:NPC]]<br /> [[Category:Monsters]]</div>
