Description

Garyx symbolizes the sheer power and destructive force of dragonkind. Some argue that Garyx is actually insane.[citation needed]

Worshippers

Garyx pays little or no attention to his clerics and worshippers, but they do not care. Some druids revere the renewing aspect of Garyx, knowing that some devastation is always necessary for rejuvenation to occur.

Creative origins

It is possible that the name Garyx is based on that of Gary Gygax, the co-creator of the Dungeons & Dragons game[original research?].
