Arveiaturace

Arveiaturace the White Wyrm "Iceclaws" White Dragon - Served a dead wizard named Meltharond, who also rode her into battle. She speaks to him often. 1,100 years old Better known to Northfolk as Iceclaws, claims Icewind Dale as part of her domain. The characters catch sight of her in the sky overhead. Rarely does she condescend to meddle in the affairs of land dwellers; however, if one or more characters neglect to take cover, she swoops down for a closer look at them (and they at her). The dragon is quite insane, and she wears a saddle to which is strapped the dead, withered corpse of a wizard she once regarded as a great friend. Arveiaturace occasionally calls out to the corpse in Draconic, as though the wizard were still alive. The dragon isn’t hungry or spoiling for a fight. But if one or more characters refuse to cower before her, Arveiaturace might strafe them once with her breath weapon or try to snatch up one of them with her claws, grappling the victim instead of dealing damage on a hit, only to drop the poor fool from a perilous height several rounds later. Before the Dracorage (Flight of the Dragons), she was ridden as a mount by the wizard Meltharond. With her master's death, she continued to live within the ice caverns carved out around the wizard's tower. She was careful with her former master's goods taking care not to cause damage with her bulk. Arveiaturace was on the lookout for another master and patrolled the Sword Coast with a mysterious rider. The dragon avoided the ships near to Waterdeep owing to her relationship with Laeral Silverhand. Other relations included Lashivian and the Cult of the Dragon to unknown extents, and her occasional mate Arauthator, whom she answered when he called Arveiaturace had offspring with Arauthator, including Aurbangras.
