Ouroboros

The Metamorphosis Maw

Ouroboros is a predatory Doom Spirit of the Doom Triad, willing to use both bodies and pride to pursue power. He says expansionist Ice Elves surrendered their flesh to become layers of his body while he sought a vessel against Light. He also wants the Hero’s skin. Having experienced the rebellion of servants who resented taking orders, he advises Apophis to call the Camlan High Elves allies in their presence.

His loyalty to Apophis and Eos is more personal than that treatment of followers. He and Apophis know Eos is not truly a Doom Spirit, and he recognizes her worsening pain. Apophis’s rescue of him from Astero is answered by his willingness to offer the Hero a truce when Apophis goes missing. He saves Eos despite her consumption of sleeping Carcossans, insisting that being Eos is enough. Before dying, he asks Eos, Apophis and Dryden to finish what they began. Sigrid says his sacrifice protected Dryden as well.
