  • Drax Stormborne The Iron Law

    Drax Stormborne The Iron Law

    Where Taranis is the storm,
    Drax is the stone that stands against it.

    He is the brother who holds the line,
    who builds the wall. Who refuses to bend even when the world does.

    Drax does not raise his voice.
    He does not need to.

    Order gathers around him.
    People follow him without understanding why.
    He is the structure that holds chaos back from devouring everything.

    Identity & Role

    Archetype: The Law / The Shield / The Foundation

    What he symbolizes: Structure and justice

    His purpose: To keep balance when the world fractures

    His burden: To stay steady, even when it costs him his heart

    Drax is not the hero in stories.
    He is the reason stories do not end in ruin.

    Strengths

    Unshakeable discipline

    Sharp strategic mind

    The ability to command through presence alone

    A deep instinct for justice, fairness, and responsibility

    When battles break, men look for Taranis.
    When kingdoms break, they look for Drax.

    Wound

    There is a weight to being the one who holds everything together.

    Drax watches people he protects:

    Betray themselves

    Destroy what they’ve built

    Choose chaos over peace

    He sees the worst of human nature and still stands guard.

    His tragedy is simple:

    He can’t save everyone.
    But he tries anyway.

    This is why he does not smile often.

    Whispers Across History

    Drax is not remembered in songs.
    He is remembered in:

    Law codes no one knows the author of

    Fortified walls that should not have held

    Villages that somehow survived raids untouched

    Court records where a “quiet advisor” influenced kings

    He has stood as:

    A commander of Roman cohorts

    A border warden in the Dark Ages

    An advisor to English lords

    A sheriff, judge, and peacekeeper

    A detective in the early industrial cities

    And later, a founder of something hidden

    Where order needed restoring, Drax appeared.
    Then vanished when the work was done.

    How Others Speak of Him

    “He is not kind, but he is fair.”

    “If you are innocent, stand behind him.
    If you are guilty, run.”

    “The world holds because he holds it.”

    This Is Only the Beginning

    Drax’s path crosses:

    Crowns

    Courts

    Armies

    Rebellions

    And the silent spaces between wars

    His story is not written in history books.
    It is etched into the way the world still works.

    But the full tale is not told here.

  • Taranis Stormborne The Storm

    Taranis Stormborne The Storm

    There are some men who are born to stand with kings. There are some who are born to stand against them.

    Taranis Stormborne was born to be the storm that breaks empires.

    He is the brother who takes the front line, who holds the shield, who rises when others fall.


    He carries the old fire of the tribes the wild courage of a world that refuses to surrender.

    He has walked through ages of blood and frost. He has seen kingdoms rise and collapse into dust. He has fought under a hundred banners, yet swears loyalty to none.

    Because Taranis does not protect rulers.

    He protects people.

    Identity & Role

    Archetype: The Blade / The Storm / The Protector

    What he stands for: Courage, defiance, resistance

    His purpose: To stand where others can’t

    His burden: He feels every loss. Even after centuries, he remembers every face.

    Taranis is not a hero — he is the cost of heroism.

    Strengths

    Unbreakable will

    Fierce loyalty to those who can’t defend themselves

    Instinctive battlefield intuition

    The ability to endure and return when others would break

    Wound

    He can save many but never enough.
    He carries grief the way others carry scars.

    No matter what age he walks through, war finds him. Or, he is what war is searching for.

    Whispers Across History

    Taranis is never officially recorded but his shadow is.

    There are stories of:

    The lone warrior who held a bridge against an army and vanished into the woods.

    The man in the Perry Woods who supplied gunpowder to rebels and walked away unseen.

    The shieldwall breaker whose roar turned battles.

    The wandering guardian who frees the enslaved and disappears before dawn.

    The soldier who dies, and then is seen again years later unchanged.

    Sometimes he is called a king.
    Sometimes a demon.
    Sometimes a ghost.

    But he is always Stormborne.

    How Others Speak of Him

    “When the world is burning, look for the thunder.
    He will be there.”

    “He does not lead armies.
    He ignites them.”

    “If you hear the storm, it is already too late to run.”

    This Is Only the Beginning

    Taranis’s story is not told in a single lifetime.
    or a single kingdom
    or a single war.

    His path crosses:

    empires,

    rebellions,

    oceans,

    and centuries.

    But those stories are not kept here.

    They are found in the fragments
    the tales, the memories, the scars, the songs,
    scattered across StormborneLore.

    Piece by piece.
    Age by age.
    Storm by storm.
