First Appearance Episode 23


Fafnir is an ancient dragon who lives in Memoria.

Appearance[]

Fáfnir appears under the guise of a spirit: an immense figure composed of fog and opal spark, in blue and purple tones. Erika defines him as "an imposing and graceful [...] white luminous figure" when she meets him. Fáfnir only reveals the top of his body, composed of a translucent mist. Fáfnir has a long neck, two long and imposing half-folded wings, which collapses into the mist. On his head are three pairs of bright horns and dark scales that spread in his neck. His eyes are almond shaped and their luster continues in the air. His face is covered with scales, tapered to the muzzle.

Personality[]

Fáfnir seems to be a calm being and has a great wisdom. He seems to see the good in everyone and ready to bet much on it before allowing himself to judge. He is very fond of his family (other dragons) and seems to be protective, although he is very dedicated to helping the weak and bringing peace. It is easy to understand from the recollections shown to Lance that he was very fond of Tia and is greatly regretted an argument he had with her before she died. Fafnir has sometimes hard time to accept if his kind acts wrongly.

Plot[]

Episode 23[]

The first meeting is on the Cliff of Forgetfulness in Memoria. He informs Erika that she has little time left to pass the final test.

Episode 24[]

Fafnir asks Erika and her friends to find the door to dragons' world, The Eye of the Dragon, before it is closed and then disappears. After discovering the eye of the dragon, she meets Fafnir again who first addresses her in the original language. He introduces himself to her and informs everybody that he is the lord of these places, the chief of the dragons. Fafnir tells that he summoned Erika to pass tests to discover if she is worthy of the trust of the dragons since she is the chosen one of the Oracle and therefore destinied to save Eldarya. He then makes Erika pass the tests, all more complicated emotionally speaking than each other for our heroine. He disappears after having reminded her that she has one last test left after running away from it. Erika and Valkyon, others couldn't enter The Eye of the Dragon, later returns to him and pass the test. It is then revealed that Valkyon is a dragon and Erika is an Aengel. Fafnir asks her to find and destroy Daemon, therefore accepting her as the savior of Eldarya.

Episode 26[]

We meet him again after several attempts on the part of Lance to force the meeting. During this one we learn that there are several types of dragons, although they are all born in the fire, they all have a particular affiliation towards an element: for Fáfnir it is the air. We begin a journey in memory of Tia, the mother of Valkyon and Lance. We discover during these that Tia and Fáfnir seemed close to him, and he cared for her, always regretting after years the arguments he had with her. We also discover that he has been dead for several thousand years, to the point where he does not remember exactly when he died.

Episode 28[]

Trivia[]

  • In Nordic mythology, Fáfnir is one of the sons of the dwarf king Hreidmar and the brother of Regin and Otaro. The brothers are known to be metamorphic and can do what they want. One day, Otaro turned into an otter and Loki, who was hunting, killed him by confusion. The family asked for revenge, so Loki gave them a ring called Andvarinaut, but only after cursing it. Regin and Fafnir killed their father to take possession of the ring. Fáfnir, unwilling to share the treasure with his brother, turned into a dragon and took the treasure to a hideout, where he kept it until his assassination by Regin's adopted son, Siegfried.
  • Fáfnir is also the name of one of the characters of Marvel Comics. Also based on the character of Norse mythology, Fafnir was the king of Nastrond, an extra-dimensional kingdom on the continent of Asgard, but his kingdom and his subjects were destroyed by Odin. Fáfnir was left for dead in the ruins of his old kingdom when he found a puddle with magical properties. While drinking from the puddle, Fáfnir not only survived but was transformed into a dragon.
