Velomachus Lorehold is one of the five elder dragons from Arcavios that founded Strixhaven.[1] The Lorehold College is named in her honor.[2] She is a master of the magic of order and chaos.[3]
History
At the birth of the plane, as the mana of two planes overlapped in conflicting ways, many forms of life adapted to the new structure, and many new forms of life were spawned.[4] Five particularly powerful vortices of overlapping mana became luminous spheres, from which were hatched five dragons. These dragons have become emblems of the magic of the plane, living symbols of the clashing forces of the five dichotomies.
The Founder Dragons were the first to master the magic of the five opposing combinations.[4] When the humanoid races arose, the dragons were at first angered that mortals would try to harness the wild forces of magic, but they came to realize that only through disciplined study would magic be in safe hands. So, centuries ago, the dragons founded an institution devoted to the study of the five mana dichotomies, and that institution is now known as Strixhaven. The five colleges were based around the magic mastered by each of those dragons.
It is said she was once cured of a secret illness by Dean Lisette of Witherbloom College.[5]
