Vashu-Pir was the second leader of the Dragonguard, who, together with Ja'darri was responsible for the defeat of the Black Beast, Laatvulon.[2][3] He was remembered as one of the four greatest Grandmasters the Dragonguard have ever known.[1] He served as the Grandmaster from 1E 2734 to 1E 2758.[4][5]
HistoryEdit
Little is known about Vashu-Pir prior to his ascension as a grandmaster of the Dragonguard. He succeeded the co-founder and the first leader of the organization Ghelin-Brol and became the second leader of the order in history. During Vashu-Pir's time as grandmaster between 1E 2734 - 2758,[4][5] the Dragonguard worked to subdue Laatvulon, the Black Beast within Elsweyr. The grandmaster called to the moon-priests of Pridehome for help to defeat the dragon with the wisdom of Alkosh.[1]
During his tenure Ja'darri was a prominent member of the Dragonguard working in Elsweyr where she formed an unlikely alliance with the red Dragon Nahfahlaar, who grew to respect her enough to give her a Dragon name and grant her a boon in the form of his horn, which was later named after her. Having been tasked by Alkosh to use the Mask of Alkosh to extinguish Laatvulon, Ja'darri petitioned Nahfahlaar to imbue the mask with his power to defeat his ancient foe Laatvulon. In an act he would later regret, he refused, leaving the Dragonguard to fight Laatvulon with limited power. They would ultimately succeed in imprisoning Laatvulon beneath Doomstone Keep, though Ja'darri died in the process.[3]
It is said Grandmaster Vashu-Pir was the one who defeated Laatvulon,[2] and bards still sing about this glorious battle between Reman I's Dragonguard and a "great Black Beast" at Doomstone Keep.[6]
After his death he was buried in Wind Scour Temple in Hammerfell, and honored with a statue,[7] and " fire and prayer".[5]
