Sphax

Sphax is the God of Diplomacy from the land of Darshan on the planet Troy.

Appearance
Sphax takes the form of a thin white dragon.

Background
Sphax usually accompanies the Darshan emissaries to Eckmul in order to protect them. During one visit to Eckmul under orders from his Pantheon to observe Lanfeust and his connection to the Master of Gods, the young hero accidentally made him manifest. Thinking Sphax to be a dragon he conjured for Cixi, the Darshanide ambassador, Feh-Rehr, already knowing who the dragon was played along with the ruse, though he suggested Cixi name him Sphax. Sphax served as a mount to Cixi and later witnessed the rogue magician Thanos lead a coup against the sages of the land.

After getting them out of the city, maintaining his cover as a dragon he enlisted the help of his countryman Feh-Rehr to give them sanctuary in Darshan.

Later after meeting the Shah of Darshan the Lanfeust and the heroes were given permission to see the gods. The high priests hearing this refused to allow foreigners an audience with the gods. They invited a riot among the people, forcing the Shah to make Lanfeust and his friends to pass through several trials to ensure their worthiness.
