Starling Grove tends her grove.

Overview

Starling Grove (Enchiridian, Furytongue: Kashaduru \ˈkɑʃəˌduːru\, meaning fragrant circle), also known as The Coin Bearer, 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

  • Realm Form: An endless forest with features based on core traits:
    • Fragrant winds from orchids that cover the colorful trees
    • Rivers of ink that run into black lakes
    • Silver coins that grow like fruit on the trees
  • Avatar Form: A massive humanoid form with the head of an owl with black feathers and deep black eyes. The head has curving black horns like a ram. Its arms and legs are long and thin bundles of black vines. It wears a cloak that flows like inky liquid. It wears a giant silver coin as a medallion.

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.
