Astegon is an ancient dragon born long before the first kingdoms of Palpagos were built. Legends claim it emerged from the heart of a volcanic mountain during an age of endless war, its body forged from obsidian, molten rock, and shadows. Feared as the Harbinger of Ruin, Astegon brought devastation to armies that sought to conquer the land, not out of cruelty, but to preserve the world's natural balance. When the wars finally ended, Astegon vanished into the deepest volcanic caverns, where rivers of lava and black crystals concealed its resting place. For centuries it has slept beneath the earth, awakening only when its domain is threatened or when a warrior powerful enough to challenge the legendary dragon enters its lair. Many have sought Astegon for its unmatched power, but few have ever returned to tell the tale, leaving only stories of a dragon whose roar can shake mountains and whose wings blot out the sky.

Knocklem is one of the oldest Pals in existence, forged deep beneath Palpagos Island when the world's first mountains were still rising. Its body is made from enchanted stone and ancient metal, infused with a mysterious core that has never stopped burning. Long ago, Knocklem served as the guardian of a forgotten civilization, protecting massive temples, hidden treasures, and sacred relics from anyone unworthy. When that civilization vanished, Knocklem remained, wandering the ruins in silence for centuries, waiting for someone with courage and honor to awaken it once again. Although its towering size and thunderous footsteps make it seem terrifying, Knocklem only fights to protect the innocent and preserve the balance of the ancient world.Knocklem's homeland is a forgotten region known as the Titan's Reach, a land of colossal stone ruins, floating cliffs, glowing crystal caverns, and endless mountain ranges where powerful Alpha Pals roam freely. Ancient machines still lie buried beneath the earth, powered by mysterious energy from a long-lost civilization. Violent storms roll across the peaks, and only the strongest explorers dare enter. Legends say that every temple in Titan's Reach is connected by hidden passages leading to the Heart Forge—the place where the first guardian, Knocklem, was created. Even today, the world believes that if Knocklem ever fully awakens, the lost age of giants may return.Knocklem is calm, wise, and incredibly patient, rarely speaking unless its words carry meaning. It values strength, loyalty, and honor above all else, believing true power comes from protecting others rather than seeking glory. While its massive appearance can be intimidating, it has a gentle heart and often shows quiet kindness to those it trusts. Knocklem never abandons its allies, standing firm against impossible odds without fear. It dislikes arrogance, betrayal, and needless destruction, and it has little patience for those who abuse their power.
