Thaldrim Mossback

Thaldrim Mossback, The Voice of Shardmere, is an imposing tortle figure, his shell etched with faint, glowing runes that pulse with restrained arcane energy. Frost gathers along the edges of his form but never seems to melt, even in the presence of his magic. His movements are slow, deliberate, and impossibly controlled.

His voice is low and measured, carrying a quiet intensity that demands attention without ever raising volume. Thaldrim views magic not as a tool, but as a force that must be carefully constrained—much like time itself within Morrowtick. Of all the council members, he is perhaps the most aligned with Cryoveth’s philosophy, believing that power unrestrained is a flaw waiting to fracture the world.
