===== Legend =====

Khathandor was purported to be capable of visiting the dreams of others;

>//“He wasn’t just a warrior, he was also a prophet. According to legend, he had the ability to travel into the dreams of others, even those who lived in the past or the future. Descriptions of those dreams have been passed down through the generations. This [[books|book]] is considered by many [[kobold|Kobolds]] to be a sacred text.”// - [[armaund_ra|Armaund Ra]], Deathmatch at the Colosseum of Ashes (RPA-SQ1)

One such dream, recorded in //The Dreams of Khathandor// is particularly noteworthy;

>//Khathandor describes reliving a famous battle with a hero from the future — someone who was once a member of the [[king_s_guard|King’s Guard]], but would later be known as the King’s Assassin.// - Deathmatch at the Colosseum of Ashes (RPA-SQ1)

It is told by the Kobolds that Khathandor bested the [[immortal_knight|Immortal Knight]] in the [[colosseum_of_ashes|Colosseum of Ashes]];

>//“The [[immortal_knight|Immortal Knight]] was defeated in the [[colosseum_of_ashes|Colosseum]] by my great ancestor, Khathandor,” he explains. “At least, that is what is said in the stories of my people. Khathandor was the greatest [[kobold|Kobold]] warrior to ever live. No Human was ever his equal.”// - [[armaund_ra|Armaund Ra]], Deathmatch at the Colosseum of Ashes (RPA-SQ1)

==== The Dreams of Khathandor ====

//The Dreams of Khathandor// is a journal of the [[dragul|Dragul]] commander's sleeping visions.

One notable excerpt is recorded below:

>//Tonight’s vision offered nothing but despair. I saw the Immortal Knightturn his back on [[azema|Azema’s]] cause and lead the armies of Nalos against us, driving us north, beyond the gate. I watched helplessly as the few [[dragul|Dragul]] that remained behind were dragged off in chains. I saw further into the future than I ever have before. I wandered aimlessly through a prison and cried for my people to rise up against their oppressors, but they could not hear me; they could not see me. I sounded my horn to rally them to my side, but the call to war fell on deaf ears.// - Crack in Kulbak (RPA-ADV5)

There are many spirits here, but one in particular catches your eye: a [[kobold|Kobold]] Warrior holding a magical [[khathandor_s_horn|horn]] of white bone.// - Tome of Encounters (RPA-ADV5)

You take the [[khathandor_s_horn|horn]] from Khathandor’s hands, but his body clings to it even in death. You are forced to rip it from his grasp.// - Crack in Kulbak (RPA-ADV5)

  * Overcome the spirit of Khathandor in battle.
