Vermithor, the Bronze Fury, whose scales glitter like the richest sun-kissed treasures, once bore King Jaehaerys I across the skies. This dragon’s fierce loyalty and fiery breath have etched their mark upon the annals of history. It was Vermithor who breathed life into the flames of King Aenys I’s funeral pyre—a sight both awe-inspiring and somber.
Now, Vermithor seeks the solace of solitude, residing in the smoky embrace of Dragonmont’s caverns, where the echoes of past glories and the whispers of the mountain intertwine. A legend not lost, but silently watching over his realm from the shadows of his lair.
This Dragon is only available to claim upon entering the campaign: Shadow of the Greens!
Gameplay Details
Vermithor is a Legendary Champion who protects struggling allies while steadily punishing enemy aggression through a mix of Physical and Tactical damage. He excels at absorbing pressure for his team, and reducing the offensive output of enemy Warrior and Hunter threats. As battle continues, Vermithor becomes harder to break through, using layered damage reduction to anchor the fight from the front.
He thrives in armies that benefit from a durable protector and can capitalize on the breathing room he creates, especially against teams that rely heavily on Physical or Fire damage. While primarily defensive, he still contributes meaningful mixed-damage with his command and habits.
