Sro, also known as the Great Sro, is an adult silver dragon who takes a particular interest to the events in Isonhound during the Greedy Green. He has generally been friendly toward adventurers and has a penchant for teaching lessons so they can better protect the realm from the coming of Tiamat. His lair is located high in the mountaintops of central Isonhound. His ward is a paladin of Bahamut named Belle.
Events of the Greedy Green
Sro first appeared in Synara during the festival of Asar Ogalas in 825PR, where he stormed the capital building and used his breath weapon to put soldiers to sleep. He abducted a man claiming to be the mayor and flew away (the real mayor having escaped out a window). The adventurers soon learned that mayors from many other towns across the region had been similarly abducted.
Soon thereafter, a band of adventurers traveled to his lair to retrieve one of the stolen mayors. There, they encountered Belle and Sro, who warned of Tiamat’s return. He said he was stealing mayors as a test of the realm’s strength. To further test the adventurers in his lair, Sro polymorphed Belle into a silver dragon and a battle ensued.
After this battle, Sro provided several lessons for dragon fighting, as many unsavory dragons had returned to the region. Sro’s “Lessons from your Forefathers” read:
- Don’t Fight a Dragon in its own Lair.
- Work together with your allies.
- Elemental Arrows of Dragon Slaying are more useful than Guns and Explosions.
- Pin them down if you need to bring in a bruiser.
- Spiked Armor can prevent being eaten or squeezed to death.
- Above all else, weapons should never need to be drawn when a Dragon can always be stopped with Trickery.
After the challenge, Sro admitted that the world may indeed be ready to fight dragons once more. This is one of several documented cases of Sro transforming Belle into a dragon to “test” adventurers and teach them lessons.
Sro asked adventurers from Isonhound for help with several tasks, including with eliminating the Green Stag. However, his help was short lived, as he caused a cave-in, trapping the adventurers with the dragon in its lair. Fortunately, the Green Stag was defeated, but not without loss of life. On another occasion, Sro ordered a team of adventurers to free a “good” dragon who had been imprisoned by the Wold Order.
Later, Sro equipped several adventurers with the Tears of Sardior, gems capable of holding dragon boons. Sardior, he explained, is a deceased dragon god akin to Tiamat. Many centuries ago, he said, the gem dragon court went their separate ways in their own pursuits. But some have been seeking each other out, perhaps to rejoin and bring forth the return of Sardior. Sro’s efforts appear to support the return of Sardior.
