Kaerithon - The Pegasus

Kaerithon - The Pegasus

In the silence before the storm breaks, you might see him β€” hooves sparking like struck flint, wings trailing thunder. If your heart holds falsehood, he will not carry you. If it holds fear, he may.

Role in Its Society:

Pegasi are often seen as symbols of purity and freedom β€” sacred steeds tied to sky-bound deities. But Kaerithon is more than sacred transport. He is the manifestation of skyborn wrath, a celestial creature bound not to temples, but to storms that think.

He is unbridled judgment in equine form, called not by prayer but by imbalance β€” unnatural war, tyranny, or elemental upheaval. Where skies are chained or storms are silenced by mortal hubris, Kaerithon arrives β€” not with permission, but with lightning’s right.

No saddle has touched him. No bridle has lasted. Those who seek to ride Kaerithon must be chosen by the storm itself.

Appearance Description:

A stallion of alabaster muscle, streaked subtly with glowing veins of amethyst energy, Kaerithon’s mane and tail seem woven from starlit stormcloud. His wings are vast and feathered in storm-touched indigo, shimmering with traces of silver.

His eyes burn violet-blue, flickering with static, and every hoofstep leaves a spark on the air. When he gallops through the clouds, lightning coils behind him like a wake. At rest, thunder rumbles in the distance β€” even if the skies are clear.

Backstory:

Kaerithon was born from a bolt of divine lightning cast during a war between the gods of sky and sea β€” not created by hands or womb, but by conflict itself. His earliest memory is flight, his first instinct resistance.

He first appeared in the Tempest Peaks of Eldervast, where an ancient dragon had dammed the sky itself to build a hoarded, stormless empire. Kaerithon shattered that stillness with hoof and wing, and every year since, a new "wild storm" strikes the mountain β€” always at the same time.

Some say Kaerithon is still guided by the will of the storm god who sired him. Others believe he is that will β€” storm-shaped and given direction.
