[[NOT MY ART]]Introduction to Kherrox - 1/3
Kherrox is a red draygas Barbarian who hails from the Drayg Kingdom in the south. Being one of the larger and stronger drayg only helped him stay out of trouble growing up, though, his abusive father contributed to the burning rage that slowly consumed the young Kherrox. To vent that anger, Kherrox participated in the many fight clubs established across the desert city of Abdhulim. There, the draygas learned to channel his fury into his own strength, and by the time he was a young adult, he was the most prominent combatant in the city. It was only natural that Kherrox was given the opportunity to fight in the King's Guard, a prestigious pit fight that occurred every five years and was hosted by King Gorathril himself. The winner of the tournament not only received a lump sum of gold, but also an invitation to join the army.
Kherrox easily beat his opponents into submission with his bare hands, claws, teeth and tail, until his only adversary left was his own father. Engaged in deeply cathartic combat, Kherrox devastated his father's defenses and overwhelmed the one being who had tormented him for so long. The crimson draygas drank deep of his utter revulsion toward the scourge of his childhood, and he threw punch after punch, kick after kick until his father was a mess of blood, shattered scales and broken teeth, claws and horns. Proving himself superior, Kherrox only left his father to die in the arena before pledging his allegiance to Gorathril. Despite being guilty of patricide, there were no laws against killing one's opponent in the tournament, and the king was happy to accept Kherrox into his ranks.
When the Draco Maledicite was ended, unlike other drayg, who returned to their true dragon forms, Kherrox opted to stay only half dragon, walking bipedal, but gaining a tail and wings. In his later years, he learned to better control his rage, and made a living as a mercenary after the end of the Resurgence War. He acted as a mercenary, taking any and all odd jobs offered to him if the pay was sufficient. He liked being able to travel to different countries and experience different foods!
It seems, however, that a certain mage has hired Kherrox as a body guard. While the pair were in a dangerous ruin -- one filled with ancient, magical traps -- the mage who had hired Kherrox up and disappeared on the confused barbarian. The mercenary searched the ancient structure high and low, but found no sign of his employer. With a shrug, Kherrox decided to return to camp, to see if the strange human had made it back before him. After marching around all day, his feet ached, and he found he had an annoying lump in his right boot, right under the ball of his foot. Probably a stupid rock...
A lovely commission I purchased from justmegabenewell -- please be sure to check out his page and give him your love! He definitely deserves it! You can also view the artist's submission here!
This...is definitely a new character, one I've debated getting made for a long while. I'm glad I finally got him realized.

He can carry, you, your supplies, and he can just step on traffic doesn't move out of the way. Though I can imagine he's going to end up snacking on some unfortunate carriages and caravans that are in "bandit" territory
I think he's a wonderful addiction to your roster. He also works so well with Danathius
Mages have to have their body guards! Otherwise, they are monster fodder! ;_;
Oh mrf. Id love to be in his boot too. That would be absolutely wonderful.
I'm positive there is room for more little folk in his boots, haha.
Soooo.... How did you end up in there anyway? Doesn't he wear those boots while sleeping in places that may need a fast escape?
Oh, I'm sure after getting shrunk by a magical trap, Danathius climbed up the side of those boots to try and get Kherrox's attention, only to slip down into them when the big guy started moving around again. ;D
He will take them off from time to time, though, especially when he wants to relax!

Exactly~ Fashionable (and musky) footwear shouldn't be restricted to the mammals! :O

he also gained a tiny furball between his cheeks last time he sat down @.@
Such an handsome dragon ! And those feet >.> ! Wouldn't mind paying him for "some odd kind of job" as well xD !
Hope to see more of him ! °°

Oh, I'm sure lots of him will be showing up on my page in the future. :O
And I'm really glad you like him! He would be happy to help you with anything, as long as you paid him well enough. ;P

Luuuucky pebble! It's amazing he's not paste under that much sexy dragon!
He’s such an interesting character! I love everything from his backstory to his design! I hope he’s able to recover from what his dad did to him; that battle must’ve been cathartic. Looking forward to seeing more of your characters and writing! These make my day!
Definitely capable of squishing tiny mages and keeping them pinned.
In commissions, Kherrox tends to be about 28 years old.
