"I will show you fear in a handful of sand..."
The sands of the Scintillant Waste are alive and sentient--the whole
vast desert speaks to itself, thinking thoughts only such a vastness can
conceive. But when it needs must find a form to communicate with those
of more limited scope, it frees a fragment of itself, and fills a
carapace of magic armor formed by the cunning Djinn of Qaldin. This
essential identity calls itself Crixalis, meaning 'Soul of the Sand,'
but others know it as Sand King. Sand King takes the form of a huge
arachnid, inspired by the Scintillant Waste's small but ubiquitous
denizens; and this is a true outward expression of his ferocious nature.
Guardian, warrior, ambassador--Sand King is all of these things,
inseparable from the endless desert that gave him life.
