Thirku was born in an ancient, hidden city called Greatspire. This city resided in a gargantuan stalactite in which there are two ways of entering: flying, or walking on the ceiling of the cavern. While that may seem impossible, all of the inhabitants of Greatspire are capable of entering the city by some means.
Greatspire is ruled mostly by Purple dragons, who live in the Underdark, but other dragons have come to know it as their home. Beings known as "Ternocks," which have such a mixture of draconic heritage that they are covered in scales rather than skin. These scales slowly change color based on the Ternocks heritage.
Ternocks do not all look alike, some looking more draconic than others.
Thirku's past can be traced to every type of metallic and chromatic dragon, thus his scales can change into any color of the spectrum. He has "hair," (like what a dragonborn has) and three sets of spikes on his head, and a muzzle topped off with a small horn instead of a mouth. Short claws replace his hands and feet, and a small tail protrudes from the base of his spine. His eyes are that of a dragon, and change in color to match his natural armor.
His father is a gold dragon, his mother a Tournok. Both prepared their son to be strong and dextrous, making sure he would some day join the ranks of the Greatspire army.
Thirku studied under the great purple dragon Houpetorsililosir, who trains most of the Ternock warriors. Those that present themselves as the most capable of fighters get to know the true knowledge that Houpetorsililosir possess. He is able through old, draconic magic to ignite something in a Tournocks mixed heritage that lets them walk on walls and cielings. He cuts a large symbol that covers the entirety of a Tournock's back and chest, and then mixes his own blood into theirs. Doing so mixes his old magic with their blood, giving them the strange ability. Tournock's who possess this mighty scar are often seen as "divine" by otherss of their race.
Most Ternocks who show they are strong enough, like Thirku, then become assigned as assassins, scouts, become leaders of the Greatspire Guard, and are ready to move at Greatspire's leader, Jennucharirdrekim's command. Doing so, though, requires that the Ternocks abandon their families, and vow never to willingly return to their homes.
Thirku is loyal to any willing ally, but above all to Houpetorsililosir and Jennucharirdrekim. He usually prefers silence while on a quest, but will join a conversation if one is of interest to him. He is a brave and bold fighter, but will use his wall crawling ability whenever he can to gain the advantage.
He dons leather armor, the symbol on his chest and back presented on his armor with dragonscales. He uses a large, purple scale, a final gift from his master, as a shoulder plate. He carries a longsword and a few knives, also given to him by Houpetorsililosir.
