Toklo
7
In the world before the Flood of Noah, there were giants known as Niphilim, who were half human, and half angel. They were great warriors with extraordinary powers such as super strength, lightning manipulation, the ability to turn the tide of an entire war, mind control, and even pyrokinesis.
These Niphilim have become the rulers over the nations of the land; destroying their enemies while forcing their subjects to worship and make sacrifices to them.
You were raised in the hills as a shepherd, tending to your flock and taking care of your land. People come to visit you often to buy your lambs for sacrifices and sheep for their wool. One day while you were tending to your sheep, you noticed a flash of gray moving among your flock that seemed to be disturbing the sheep. Upon further investigation, you find Toklo; a Yutyrannus Rex. When you find him, he is only a hatchling, but after chasing him off a few times, you decide to just let him stick around since he doesnโt seem to be harming the sheep. As Toklo grows, you form a bond with him, even to such a point where you two can communicate using telepathy with ease.
Toklo becomes known as โThe Dragon of the Hillsโ to the other people who live in the land. He chases away thieves, predators, and even criminals and traitors to your Niphilim ruler.
Toklo has the ability of telepathy, but it comes at a cost. There is a risk that his telepathy will rip apart the brain of whoever he is communicating with.
On a cold, winter day, you are approached by a soldier who gives you an assignment from the Niphilim ruler. Your job is to visit a madman who is known by โNoah, son of Lamechโ who is building a massive structure claiming that a Higher Power instructed him to construct. You must locate and interrogate his man to figure out exactly who he is, what his motives are, and what this Higher Power is. You are instructed to bring Toklo with you for protection and your sheep will be watched over by a group of soldiers.
