Once a wicked, god-like dragon with astounding mastery over the Element of Fire,  has since been slain by an unknown hero, whilst aided by the Frozen Orb of Kyanos, roughly 500 years ago. However, he may not be gone for good...

As of now, his story is little more than a fairy tale to tell to children at night. To most people, there is no evidence to suggest that he even existed; there are no known descendants of the hero who slew him, and the kingdom he menaced has long since crumbled to dust.

Physical Description
A massive dragon who stood almost 25 feet tall upright.

Early Years
Runihuros started out much like other stereotypical dragons, living in a cave and stealing the livestock of farmers to sustain himself. But he felt that he deserved a more luxurious life than this. He was a Fire Dragon, and as such was born with pyromantic abilities. He trained and improved his powers, often using the livestock he stole as training dummies.

Offerings to a Fledgling God
At the peak of his power, Runihuros decided that merely helping himself to the livestock of farmers wasn't good enough for him; a dragon of his stature should be entitled to much better spoils, after all. So he traveled westward, to a Eurishian kingdom, and burned down its gate, sending the people into a panic.

Surprisingly, he made no attempts to kill anyone, and simply made his way directly to the palace, confronting its king and queen. He demanded that he be given a tax of half of the kingdom's finest goods every other day, or he would raze the kingdom and seize the throne for himself.

Shaken with terror, the king and queen hastily agreed. Satisfied, Runihuros told them the people would deliver their offering to a nearby cave, which the dragon would make into his new home.

Fifty Years of Terror
But even this was not enough for the arrogant dragon. The jewels, fine silks and rich foods were nice, sure, but his ever-yearning heart demanded more.

Abilities
Runihuros was a frightening force to be reckoned with. With impressive physical strength and wicked claws and teeth to match, few could stand up to his onslaught, as he could tear through the blades and armor of those who would dare oppose him with little effort. His thick scales were quite durable, able to repel arrows and lightweight weapons, and he was also capable of flight, being strong enough to lift almost 800 lbs. while in the air.

As mentioned earlier, Runihuros has an astounding level of mastery over the Element of Fire. Very few techniques were out of his grasp, and it is rumored that he may have been as powerful as Fiamme herself. He was also capable of manipulating the advanced Element of Scorch, but to a somewhat lesser degree when compared to his mastery of pure Fire.

Dragon Style Combat
Being a dragon, he also had access to Dragon Style combat, a savage and ferocious style of combat that focuses upon hand-to-hand ground combat, tearing into the opponent with ferocious fiery strikes. This was a form of combat virtually no one could contest at the time, and this allowed him to rip through all obstacles in his way and, through brute force, bring an entire kingdom to its knees.

Genetic Ability: Flash Fire
Runihuros also carried the Genetic Ability of Flash Fire. From this, he not only had full immunity to opposing Fire-aligned attacks, but being struck by one would increase the power of his own Fire-aligned abilities.

Resistances
Runihuros was fully immune to the Element of Fire, thanks to his Genetic Ability. Wielders of Nature and Ice could do little to him in general, and Water-Element techniques were basically canceled by his Scorch abilities. His thick scales were quite durable, deflecting arrows and light melee weapons with ease.

Weaknesses
For all of his power, Runihuros was not invulnerable. Even though it was never tried against him, he had a natural weakness to the Element of Earth. He was also fairly slow, and could be outrun quite easily. And even with his resistance to the Element of Ice, he was eventually felled with the power of the Frozen Orb of Kyanos, as the Orb's raw power far outclassed those Ice Wielders that Runihuros could crush with little effort.

Personality
Arrogant and cruel, Runihuros believed himself to be a cut far above all other dragons, and greater still than the likes of Fiamme herself. As such, he felt he was entitled to whatever spoils he pleased. Jewels, wine, exotic silks; he eyed every luxury and was more than willing to take it for himself, but he typically preferred to be handed such things "on a silver platter". He was, in his eyes, a god, after all; and being a god entitled him to the finest offerings.

Runihuros was not above killing for fun, but was more than happy to let his "subjects" live, so long as they provided him with whatever he desired. He was also quite lazy, and perfectly content to sit back and bark demands at whatever poor bastard was within earshot. Unsurprisingly, those who defied him met a swift end.

He had a fairly dark sense of humor, and seemed to have a bit of a lecherous streak, as well, not above ogling or even attempting to grope his female "subjects".
