Kisonraathiisar was a topaz dragon and the first king of Westgate. He founded Westgate in an effort to build a kingdom that would survive the effects of the King-Killer Star.
History[]
He was slowly destroyed by Saldrinar "of the Seven Spells", a Netherese wizard,[1] in −349 DR.[2] Saldrinar then became the first human king of Westgate.
Kisonraathiisar's corpse was kept in a secret subbasement below Castle Thalavar in Westgate.[1] Early in his reign, Orlak took a large chunk of bone from the skeleton of Kisonraathiisar and from it carved a special chalice. With unholy incantations of necromancy, Orlak enchanted this as the Argraal of Orlak.[3]
Long after his death, a large stature (not to scale), was erected in Westgate to commemorate the creation of the city and its first draconic king. The statue depicted Kisonraathiisar as a fierce red dragon and was placed in the Harbor Loop with a plaque that named the creature, his death date, and his slayer – Saldrinar. As of the late 14th century DR, the stature to Kisonraathiisar stood unvandalized.[4]
