“We are all godspawn, but I am Ura. And I am far stronger than my stock.
Ura, the Steamshrieker is a titan imperatrix who is respected by both Decima, the Stormsinger and Greer, the Blightbringer. She is the third and final boss of the Mount Balrior raid. Ura's spheres of influence are geysers, rage, and boiling steam.[1] She claims to be far stronger than her stock. She is willing to reason with her enemies and is able to command her weaker godspawn brethren to obey her.
Biography[edit]
Early years[edit]
After being unleashed on Janthir Syntri, Ura's fellow titans Greer, the Blightbringer and Decima, the Stormsinger began spreading their corruption across the island and even began to influence Lowland Shore while Ura remained out of sight elsewhere.
Janthir Wilds[edit]
Act 2[edit]
In 1337 AE, members from both the Lowland Kodan and the Tyrian Alliance began taking a foothold of Janthir Syntri to combat the titans' spreading corruption that was also manifesting as the troubling Mistburn phenomenon infecting local flora and fauna. While their allies were busy preventing Decima and Greer's continued drainings of the island's remaining bloodstone shards to empower themselves, the Pact Commander's party decided to use the knowledge gained from their bloodstone shard experimentation to neutralize many of the shards with the Heart of the Obscure and defeat the titan pair at the same time in their lair.
Before the party could deal the finishing blow against the weakened pair, however, they were forced to stand down when Ura made herself known via both commanding the titans to retreat to her and raising a steam wall between the fleeing titans and the pursuers. She addressed the Commander, claiming to be more powerful than the two titans, and offered the party a chance to retreat as long they let the titan pair go as she believed the Commander would listen to reason and not risk the exhausted party's lives in battle. After the Commander reluctantly backed down, Ura kept her end of the bargain and allowed the party to flee, while the heavily injured Greer and Decima retreated to her side at Mount Balrior.[2]
In a discussion that followed in the Wizard's Tower, the wizard lord Isgarren was surprised to learn of Ura's involvement while identifying her as the titan imperatrix.[3]
