Overview

Starling Grove (Enchiridian, Furytongue: Kashaduru, meaning fragrant circle) gets its name from its realm form of a silvery forest.

Lore about the Starling Grove is rare and incomplete. It comes primarily from the dragons and immortals who have had interactions with the titan.

History

Starling Grove was a titan in the Lost Age who was subsequently imprisoned by the Founders, like all titans, in the Foundation War during the First Age. It has remained imprisoned ever since.

Description

Starling Grove's realm form is a thick and sprawling forest. Notable features of this forest include silverwood trees, which are dark grey trees with veins of silver and quicksilver sap. Many trees produce flowers with vibrant colors that exude heady and intoxicating fragrances. The water that flows in the forest is ink-black, though it does not stain like ink. Some trees have clusters of coins for leaves.

Starling Grove's avatar is a massive humanoid with the head of an owl. Its owl head has black face feathers and silver head feathers. Silvery curved horns come from its head, from which dangle silver incense burners. Its body is wrapped in an inky black cloak of feathers, from which its extremely long and thin limbs protrude like clusters of vines. Around its neck it wears a necklace of flowers that hold a single silver coin.

Personality

Starling Grove's personality is that of fierce nurturing. Part protector and part predator, it prowls its domain to both tend to its vibrance and viciously attack trespassers.
