History

The Lost Age

During the Template:Category Lost Age, Everburning Obisidian was a monster among the Titans, having absorbed the power of many others through Dominion.

The First Age

Everburning Obsidian was the first of the Titans to fall to the Template:Category Founders during the Foundation War. Its defeat not only diminished the combined might of the Titans considerably, but also created a power vacuum that heightened their in-fighting for the Contest Supreme.

Like a few of the most powerful Titans, the Obsidian Titan could not be imprisoned in its whole form. The Founders used a weapon that caused a sort of forced Fragmentation to break the Titan into smaller pieces which could be bound. The more powerful the Titan, the more pieces it required to be broken into. It is said that Everburning Obsidian had to be split into more than 30 parts.

It is in this fractured, bound form that Everburning Obsidian has remained since the end of the Foundation War.

Description

Before fragmentation and binding, Everburning Obsidian had a massive and varied form. It's terrain was jagged hills of sharp stone, flame erupting from fissures. Fierce winds carried sulfur and flecks of iron in terrible storms. Rivers of quicksilver poured from springs, with riverbeds of sharp, black glass. Forests of charred and ashen trees dropped fruits as coal. Boiling swamps, glowed with magma deep beneath the mud.

The Obsidian Titan's Avatar was a behemoth of awesome scale, resembling a wingless dragon with six legs. It's eyes were a deep and molten gold that glowed with an inner fire and swirled like liquid metal. It's body was scales were facets of dark quartz, revealing clouds of smoke roiling beneath. It's breath was like that of the volcanic storms of its realm: filled with flecks of metal, smoke, ash, searing gas, and molten spittle. It's voice was deep like the movement of tectonic plates, resonating with the roar of a fire. It had a long tail with spines like jagged volcanic rock. It's six legs ended with claws of obsidian, matching its black and shining teeth.

In its bound form, Everburning Obsidian appears as nearly three dozen chunks of shiny black metal and glass. It's immense power enables the Titan to change the size and shape of its bound form, often using it to entice creatures to use or wield it's imprisoned form. Such wielders of the Obsidian Titan's pieces are granted immense power, but risk succumbing to its indomitable will.
