I wrote my "Alakoring Saga" scribble with the image of Volsunga Saga,
Niebelungenlied. Highly Symbolic Structure is the charcter of the typical
feudal europe literature, IIRC on the contrary of realistic description of
Icelandish Saga.

I think it is too clever by half to strictly divert the symbol of "Ring" in
the alchemistic term (Ouroboros = Beyond Eternity) for it, so I used
Ormsword (which derived from Dunsany's Sacnoth) for the substitute of the
Ring which brings unlimited wealth (and power) of Niebelungenlied.

"See what Heort hold in the both of the hands, Armband and Tork! This means
he also supports the creed of Third Council and Ouroboros!"

(See the origin of Infinity sign and Greg's Dragon Pantheon about Infinity
Rune (Ouroboros?) and World Dragon (S-Unfinished Infinity).)

God Learners said that it is related to Arachne Solara, Invisible God,
Ouroboros, and Durapdur (IMHO), but there is no mention in New HW rulebook
for it.
http://www.glorantha.com/library/elder/dragonewts-mythos.html#ouroboros

Origin of Infinity Symbol (Two OO)
http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/1861/arithm11.html#infinity
But some says that it is derived from symbol of Alchemy (Tarot card?) and
Ouroboros, but it is not related to "Infinity" for the original
"spellbooks". (maybe)


And I deleted some of phrases and explanations derived from limited GTA
files like 2nd Age Dragonpass History (I did same in my scribble for
Alakoring), if GTA member needs more complete list.....

And if you have English Edition Copies that I don't have and kindness to teach me about the precise reference
portion and spelling, I'll greatly appreciate you.

Dragons in Glorantha




 Dragons are not separated, independent species but continuum to everything in the Mythological and Magical World of Glorantha.

  It seems as a result that I criticized David Dunham's great work for Heroes List for its arbitrariness. So I try to write down more arbitrary list for their greatest enemies...Dragons in other ordinary Fantasy Worlds.

 First, please read Greg's "Dragon Pantheon" article in WWW (it first appeared in Old Wyrm's Footnote). And mediate about the meaning of hidden secret of "War between Giants and Dragons".

 Some cultures regard Everything Draconic as their taboo. Others tolerated them for a while in their some stage of their history...and later abandoned such "blasphemous" idea and try to forget the period of contamination. (Like Seshnelan Serpent Dynasty or EWF of Heortling)

 Outsiders cannot discern the difference between true dragons and false dragons (maybe serpents, failed dragonewts or dragonspawns, failed EWF or Kralori Mystic) of their short time observation. And on the contrary of other Otherworld Entities with Great Power, Dragons don't show weakness (penalty?) inside of Middle World with physical and magical amount of vastness.

  And the from the point of view of Mysticism, Dragonewts, EWF and Kralori Mystics all seeks to attain (or pretend to do so) Absolute (Immortality without hinder, Transcendence?) So Physical Feature of them doesn't inform the method to the truth or falsehood of their spiritual progression by feature of their serpentine bodies. (But maybe some of them succeed to come to too large to "worry about" entanglement of Temptation.)

 After Sandy Petersen wrote First Test Dragonewt Magic Rule (Personality is their source of power), Greg has added more and more difficulty to comprehend the behavior of Dragonkind from the point of view of player characters.




Incomplete List of Dragons in Glorantha

 The list below includes names derived from the point of view of enemies of Dragonspawn. I agree some of them can be same entity in different names. And many called only by alias. Maybe only few True Powerful Dragons reveal their true Auld Wyrmish (I think this "language" can be used by True Dragons) name....(like Dragons of Earthsea?)

 And as you know, dragons sometimes divide oneself by Utuma, combined (be eaten) to other (see End of Ingolf's Saga and "Wyter" Drang the Diamond Storm) or revive from death without any causation. (See Dragon Sun in Genertela Box: Glorantha and Sh'hakarzeel (Mover of Heaven) in Argrath's Saga)

*Name:
True Name by Auld Wyrmish? (Phonogram is perfectly unsuitable for Dragonewt Language....)
[Name by Outsiders]
<Nickname for purpose>
'Being which has connection to Draconic Force'

Head:
(Used Language Group, Classification (Legend, True, Dragonspawn, Mystic (Succeeded, Failed), Serpent of Nature))

A / B / C / D / E / F / G / H / I / J / K / L / M / N / O / P / Q / R / S / T / U / V / W / X / Y / Z



A
<All Eyes Open But One>: (True) A Friend of Genert, once it was a Dragonewt. {DP}

*[Amuron]: (Pamaltela, Serpent of Nature?) Great Spirit. He was the Creator before Trickster killed him. See Hykim and Korgatsu, Serpent. {RMp. 46, etc}

*[Ana Gor]: Goddess of Human Sacrifice. There was an EWF magical attempt to replace her with less bloodthirsty existence, two mystics, Two Mong Dragon and Green Mong Dragonet tried but failed. {ST p.193}

*[Arangorf]: (Heortling, Legend?) Inner Dragon of Orlanth, Enemy of Orvanshagor. It seems that there is some connection to Beast Tribe and Drolgard (Secret?) Cult. See EWF and Youf. {KOS, TR p.}

*[Argrath]: (Sartari Heortling, Mystic (Failed?)) Means Liberator, later called Dragonfriend. Future Greatest Hero of Hero Wars and Main Character of King of Sartar. In King of Sartar, it seems that he attended himself as a reformer of army structure of Heortling tribes, (EWF Banner of Second Dragon Army, Reaching Storm Temples and Combined Wyters like Lunar Yanafali Vexillum, New Magic Regiments like Eleven Lights and Eagle Brown) In my opinion, he cannot succeed to attain Ultimate if he use his Draconic Power so frequently. See Ingolf and Wyter. {GGB, KOS}

*[Aroka]: (Heortling, True or Serpent of Nature) an Enemy of Orlanth in Mythology and come into a Oslira River by his  Quest (Thunder Rebels). See also Oslira and Sh'hakarzeel. {TR p.145, KODP, KOS, WFp p.72}

*<August Dragon>: (Kralori, Succeeded Mystic?) A Draconic Seer of Kralorela who awake four times since the Dawn. {ES, RM p.87}

*'Auld Wyrmish': Communication? method of dragonewts and other dragospawns and considered some kind of language by humanity. But it requires all five senses and more for humanity and only limited use was available for human without brain surgery (Clavandal) which was frequently done in EWF. {KOS}

B
*[Berneel Arashagern(gorm)]: (Dara Happans, Legend?) One of Six Chips of Yelm. Or simply Snake or Beast. See also Instinct or Sexual Desire, Dragon Sun, Ursturburn.{FS p.74, GROY p.17}

*<Black Dragon>: (True) Dragon of Dragon Pass Board Game Unit. Friend of Cragspider the Firewitch. Maybe the Final Fate of Ingolf inviting him to Kapertine. {DPB, ES, Cragspider Article in WWW} It might be the offspiring or the same as the Storm Dragon Dargabon which was defeated by Orlanth in Conquest Peak {TR p. 135}

*<Black Eel>: (Serpent of Nature?) River of Balazar. See also Murgados? {GM}

*<Brown Dragon>: (True) Dragon of Dragon Pass Board Game Unit. Perhaps New Dragon at early 17C Glorantha. See Jarn, Dragon of and Dara Esklator Boreem {DPB, ES, KOS}

*[Burburstus]: (Dara Happans, Legend?) Throne Dragon of Plentonius Star List, Constellation of Ten Virtues. {GROYp.54-55}

C
*[Can Shu]: (Failed Mystic?) Current Evil Ruler of Chern Durel, he might draw his power from the Amethyst Dragon of Greater Chaos (A chaotic, three-headed dragon inhabiting Chen Durel, the Kingdom of Ignorance.) {GITHW p.185}

*[Clavandal]: Draconic Brain Surgery, this word also means the rather low mountains from north to south in Dragonpass, equal to Dragonspine. {KOS, DPG}

*'Conquest Peak': Orlanthi name for Blackorm Mountains or Skyfall Mountains. It exists both of Heortling Storm Realm and mundane Dragonpass. See Black Dragon head. {TR p. 15 & 135}


D

*Dara Esklator Boreem: (True Dragon) Young Storm Dragon which will rise in the site of New Wind Temple, though I think it was equal to Brown Dragon of Jarn, it seems Greg changed his mind and increases number of active true dragons more than four (Black, Brown, Green, Red (See DPG p.23)...Hail Gregging!.{DPG p.3}

*[Dendrog]: A Vingkotling hero who killed Ice Dragon Shalanvar and made Dendrogi Pass. {UW: TA p. 6}

*[Dogsalu]: (Vithelan, Serpent of Nature?) Husband of Goddess of Love Yothenara and father of Govmeranen. (once Leader of Anti Gods). It was once defeated by Vith and his magical conch. It is said that it was born from Hakka, Doubt. {RMp. 87}

*'Dragonbone Longbow': High-qualified longbow made by dragonewts from their own bones. Some believe that it is dragonewts that taught longbow tactics to Tarshite Twin Dynasty soldiers. {Runequest 3rd Edition: Introduction to Glorantha?}

*Dragonkill: The disastrous incident that True Golden Horde which tried to attack the once the Center of Youf, for they thought it was their chance to destroy dragonewt eggs after Youf leaders had been assassinated by dragonewts and Blue Moon Plateau trolls, but this attempt invoked the attack of dragons. Dragonkill "War" is embellished name of incident from the point of view of the victims massacred.

*'Dragonewts': (Dragonspawn) Subspecies of Dragons born from dragon eggs without maturity. Most "Orthodox" Race of Dragonspawns. Living in Dragonpass, Ryzel, Ormsland, Kralorela, Teleos and one of East Isles.

*'Dragonewt Road': Magical roads which linked by magical statues used only by Dragonewts, some says it is similar to "Shortcut" of heroquest, but dragonnewts can use it with great members. {ES}

*<Dragon's Eye> Greatest "Community" of Dragonewts in the land of dragonpass and maybe it is one of two that Inhuman Kings dominate the regions. Its name is maybe Horshassam. {DPG p.22}

*<Dragon's Head>: (Legend?) Part of Stellar Draconis? Green Star of Orlanth's Ring. {ES, SFAQ}

*'Dragonslayers': Since Orlanth Orvanshagor and Yelm Murharzarm killed Legendary Dragons, there are many Dragon Slayers appeared in the Glorantha History. Though hard to understand, True Dragons can be killed by relatively weak heroes of Middle World. In my opinion, what they can do for it is "find a weakpoint" of them, that is related to hidden desire of Dragonspawns that is called "Utuma". See Utuma.

*'Dragonspawns': Sometimes failed or under the unorthodox way to Draconic Ascension. These Reptalians are Dinosaurs, Dragonewts, Magisaurus, Stoorwyrms, Wyrms, Wyverns. (But some are simply kins of Earthly Guadians or Water Current.) {ES}

*'Dragonspine': The hilly area that divide Dragonpass. It is said that it was the First Dragon which was defeated by Orlanth. It is also called Clavandal (Draconic Anatomy. See Sh'hakarzeel and Aroka {UW: TA p. 6}

*<Dragon Sun>: ((Failed?) Mystic) EWF Enforcer to Dara Happa and rule as an Emperor (Reign 878-910ST?). Killed by Karvanyar. Martin Laurie wrote an interesting story about it. But David Dunham dislike this idea. Later it revived and joined the attack of Dragonkill (1120 ST) and ate Dayzatar Priests in the slaughter. {FS p.39, Tales #17 p.54-56}

*[Drang]: (Failed Mystic?) The Diamond Storm Dragon. Maybe it is a Wyter of Saird EWF. Killed by Alakoring in the Three Armies Battle. See Wyter. [KOS, TR p.152]

*[Drathdaw the Stone Dragon]: A Dragon of Pass killed by Orvanshagor. {DPG p.15 Bone Hills, p. 49 Skull Hill, TR p.226 (Orvanshagor)}

*'Dream Dragon': (Dragonspawn) True Dragon's thought has a great power to affect outside and sometimes take form of minor physical entity, these are called Dream Dragons created from desire of Sleeping Dragons. Once there is a  mass Magico inscrutable Event called Dragonewt Dream (though it was a large scale hallucination mainly occured in Peloria and Dragonpass, and dramatis personae are ghostly dragonewts (1539-1541ST)). Maybe this event and that have common or similar effect and cause.  {FS, River of Cradle, etc...}

*[Drolgard]: The mystical name in Heortling Mythology that taught Orlanth how to talk about dragonspawns, (in that KOS myth fragment, it is said that she was from Beast Tribe, I think she has some relationship to Serpentbeast Brotherhood, see Myth of Yinkin in Issaries Site.) And in Second Age, her Cult taught Nochet college and Vestikos about Auld Wyrmish and Inner Dragon Arangorf. I think it related to Ancient Wild Temple before Youf and so called "Hykimi". (TI: but it is unorthodox idea among Gloranthaphiles)

*<Durgados>: (Serpent of Nature?): Maybe another name is Urnfazan. Though if I remember correctly, the demon Ezkankekko raised was not serpent in the old setting, but Gregged. {DPG p.6, 13, 38}

E
*'Earth Guardian': (Serpent of Nature) Many existences of Magical Earthly Origin took form in the reptilian form, for the Element of Earth is Connected to Reptile by God Learner Definition. Like Earth Shakers of Maran in Dragon Pass. See Froalar and Serpent. {Kings of Seshnela}

*[Engizi]: (Heortling, Serpent of Nature) God of Creekstream River. Sometimes called Sky River Titan or equated with Lorian from the point of view of Watchers to Skyfall Lake . {Troll Gods, ST p.214-215}

*[Enkoshons]:(?, Serpent of Nature) Defeated by Vadrus in Gods Age. Similar to the battle of Aroka and Orlanth. See also Aroka.{WF p.67-68}

*EWF: (Auld Wyrmish?, True?) Of course, "Empire of Wyrm's Friend" is the accurately? translated name by outsiders. See also Youf and Wyrm's Mind Collective. {GITHW, KOS}

*'EWF Battle Banner': See the head of Argrath, it was used by the Invincible Second Dragon Army in EWF. It might be a very strong Artifact. {KoS}

F
*'Factions of EWF':" War Dragons", "Above and Beyond" and "Converters" (Matti Jarvinen taught me the accurate spelling of English terms, thanks!) "Here and Now Dragon" and "Forward Dragon" (King of Sartar), "Pick-Uppers" and "Up-Toppers". I suppose some of these faction names are derogatory of call of another name from other factions. {GGB, KOS}

"The guiding council in Dragon Pass grew acrimonious in its debate over proper methods to handle the crisis of the Old Day Traditionalists. Soon, internal dissent in attempts to maintain what was left destroyed as much as invaders did. Provinces rebelled, and tribes and kingdoms appeared where once unity had throve. One popular group were the War Dragons, whose military successes were constant, but whose terrifying devastations rarely converted the populace back to friendship. Another, called the Above and Beyonds, were all for ignoring the troubles, saying "Even dragons have vermin. Pity them." Another, the Converters, reversed their own increased sanctity to assist the suffering populace. Some went among their nearest followers, hastening them out of physical reality, while others went among the ravaged borderlands to perform miracles and to mock martyrdom."(GGB)
*'Falling Ruin': City Intan of Youf, EWF mystic Dinkat tried to contact Empyreal World through his magical ladder here but failed. {UW: TA p. 7}

*[Froalar]: (Seshnegi, Serpent of Nature) First King of Seshnela and became Seshnelan Guardian of Serpent Dynasty in the reign of Heroic King Saval (729-734 ST). Killed by Herjan the Raider (circa 1045 ST). See Earth Guardian. {Kings of Seshnela}

*<New Dragon Ring>: Five Centers of 2nd Age Conquerors to Kralori Natives, their leader was Gilam de Estau, renamed Emperor Shang Hsa, I think the five centers are soecific cities of Kralorela, but Peter Metcalph has another idea about it. {Genertela Box Set and Glorantha}

*'Serpentbeast Brotherhood': Name of Enemy "Summons of Evil" of Yinkin on rituals, his kin from Animism and beast family of father Fralor and Hykim, it is my assumption that it relates something to Drolgard, beast family later taught Auld Wyrmish to 2nd Age Heortlings. {Issaries Website}

*<Serpent Dynasty>: (Serpent of Nature) Offsprings of Froalar and Seshna Likita. Ruled Seshnegi on early Dawn Age. They used Chthonic Magic and had Serpentine Feature that looks very alien and heretical from the point of view of Hrestolinized Later Malkioni Logicians. See Earth Guardian, Froalar and Serpent. {Kings of Seshnela}

*[Servants of Almighty Dragons]: Greatest Secret Society of Dragon Pass?, (one of its members shuns draconic scholarship of Garstal Shavetop and Tosti Runefriend, and it counts New Wyrmish, Scholar Wyrm, Veevee the Magisaur among its members.)

U
*[Un Lo]: (Kralori, Legend) See Ouroboros. {GITHW p.192}

*<Urnfazan>: (Serpent of Nature?): Maybe another name is Durgados, Leaden Serpent raised by Only Old One against Belintar, but defeated. Its coiled corpse and death convulsion crushed the EWF ruin of Anjoralini.{DPG p.6, 38}

*[Ursturburn]: (Ariri?, Serpent of Nature) Seed of Life in the Early Cycle of the Mythology of Goddesses, in my opinion, it was later equated with Berneel Arashagern of Dara Happa, and EWF took control over Solar Empire for a while through this esoteric association to this Darsen cult. {Ent p.10, GITHW p. 128}

*Utuma: Draconic Self-Sacrifice and Greatest Secret of Draconic Mystery. By that method, Dragons created the World and their offspring aside from laying eggs in Gods Age. {DP, KOS} It is also a type of polearm made from bones dragonewts are accustomed with its use.

*'Wyrm's Mind Collective': Another Name of EWF. Maybe it explains the contradiction of centralised non humans composed from decentralised heortlings. {DPG}

*[Wyter]: (Heortling) term for Guardian Daimon (Spirit?) of Communites. Lunars can unify that's forces of their regiments with the Vexillum Ritual of Yanafal Tarnils.
