Baurii

(Pronounced Boor-ee)

M Turtle (Flame-Touched)

Spent much of his life avoiding being predated upon by the various creatures of the swamps while watching his kin suffer that fate. Inspired by seeing the Dragon-Frog he decided to make the long trek to try to be similarly transformed by Keraunoss. Along the way he met Matthias and Sierra-Michi, which he told of his destination and reasons. Since they were going to the same place they brought him along. They departed when Keraunoss (in human form) was bringing him into a cave for some soup.

It turned out that the thunder dragon did decide to both spare and transform the turtle. Baurii also convinced to change some of his fellows, beginning with his friend Tokka, who was the first of several made into humanoid turtles.
