Personality Traits:
Protective: Fiercely guards those he considers his own—especially his children.

Proud: Holds pride in his power and lineage; slow to trust, slower to forgive.
Reforming: Since Elaria's death, he's trying—awkwardly but sincerely—to live up to the ideals she left behind.
Backstory Highlights:
Once known and feared as a destructive force of nature.
Waged wars against kingdoms, razed fortresses, and seared the skies. (a smaller kingdom)
Met Elaria, a wind-singer dragoness who challenged his worldview.
Their bond slowly transformed him, teaching him restraint, introspection, and a taste of peace.
Now resides in The Hollow Pyre, an ancient volcanic roost far from the politics of dragons or mortals.
After Elaria's death (from a magical sickness or curse, depending on your lore), he became a single father to their three hatchlings: Vaelion, Myraxa, and Thorne.
Current Role in Story:
Kareth now navigates the difficult path of fatherhood—an unfamiliar role for a being shaped by war and solitude. Struggling to express love and afraid of repeating his old mistakes, he remains ever watchful over his children. He knows that danger will one day come for them, and when it does, it will find a father made of fire and fury.
Relationships:
Elaria (Mate): The only being who ever softened his fire. (Deceased)
Vaelion (Son): Proud and strong-willed; reminds Kareth of his younger self.
Myraxa (Daughter): Curious and philosophical; shares Elaria's heart.
Thorne (Son): Smallest and weakest of the clutch; Kareth fears for him most.
