Entry:
Pharogrim is believed to be the vengeful spirit of an ancient pharaoh who refused to pass on to the afterlife. According to legend, his soul was bound within a sarcophagus filled with gold and sacred sand meant to protect his power for eternity. When his body crumbled to dust, only the golden armor and his cursed spirit remained, merging into the being known as Pharogrim.
Its body never touches the ground—beneath its golden form swirls a mass of dark sand and spectral energy. Deep within forgotten ruins, its glowing eyes pierce the darkness, and those who meet its gaze are said to be struck by an ancient curse. When angered, Pharogrim can summon colossal sandstorms that bury entire cities beneath the desert’s wrath.
At night, its bandages stir and slither across the sands in search of intruders. Some researchers believe Pharogrim is not truly malevolent, but rather a guardian of the treasures and tombs it once ruled over. Others claim it still waits patiently for the return of its long-lost subjects—who have long since turned to sand themselves.
