Draxxus

Draxxus Portrait

Draxxus (also recorded in older Farsea chronicles as Draxus) is the formidable mortal champion of Dambastra and the militant leader of the Church of the Silverwing Serpent (known colloquially among the marsh-dwellers as the Order of the Winged Worm).

Draxxus speaking on the games of gods and mortals

Champion of the Silverwing Serpent

Clad in heavy crimson-and-black warplate, Draxxus is no wild zealot; he is a philosophical, calculating warlord who views the struggles of houses, crowns, and cults across the Farseas as a grand strategic game of power and ascension. Under his leadership, the Church of the Silverwing Serpent has expanded rapidly through the marshes, challenging the ancient authority of The Siv over The Spirit Road.

Ambitions & Conflict in the Farseas

Subverting the Spirit Road: Draxxus seeks to break the monopoly of The Siv and the Swamp Gods over the three gates of Oghrann (Osrinro, Osrinray, and Ironclaw), redirecting spiritual transit and soul-tribute toward Dambastra.
The Divine Game: As he appears now, Draxxus openly mocks the hypocrisy of the old founding dynasties (House Osrin, House Foxmantle, and Kropus House), inviting rivals and adventurers alike to test their resolve against Dambastra's rising order.
