Chrysos

The god of honor and loyalty, he is the penultimate gold dragon, and he is loyal to Aedrem.

History
Chrysos was born from the same egg as the god Malum. They are twins, but they could not be more different.

Depiction
Often appears polymorphed as a middle aged man, with brilliant blue eyes and a large, grey beard. In his dragon form, he appears as a gargantuan gold dragon, and is unique in the world by being the only dragon without feathers. Instead, he is covered in shining scales.

Symbolism
The symbol of Chrysos is a gold dragon’s head, usually surrounded by fire or holy light.

Temples
Temples to Chrysos are typically made of white stone, and are long and rectangular. They have many tall pillars, which support decorative marble carvings, and the sloped ceiling. There are very little solid walls- the structure relies on the support of the columns- and much open space. There is typically a statue of Chrysos in the center of the temple. Temples to Chrysos can usually be found nearby, if not directly adjacent to temples to Aedrem and they often occupy the same hill.

Zevgari
The Zevgari are loyal followers of Chrysos. They wander the world, attempting to find someone worthy of their protection, typically nobles or young warriors they believe can be shaped into good, honorable men or women. When they find this person, they vow to protect them for the rest of their lives. Zevgari always operate in pairs that consist of an older, battle hardened Zevgari called a spathalos, who is training and raising a younger Zevgari, called a kataneos. The spathalos wields a longsword with a blade made of a material that appears as gold, but is seemingly unbreakable. When the spathalos dies or retires, the sword is passed on to the kataneos, and he finds a new person to begin training.
