Archon, Mystaran
by John Walter BilesMystaran Archons are champions of Law, rather than of the Elemental Planes. They seek to find sources of evil and then either push adventurers towards the problem or find adventurers to aid against them. They may voluntarily serve as mounts. They form mated pairs with 1d3 young, but their young are rarely encountered by adventurers.
