Goldscorn Bank

Goldscorn Bank is said to be the most secure in the world - a reputation it well deserves, as all gold deposited is (temporarily) considered to be part of the hoard of Aurixidar, an ancient red dragon. Goldscorn is famous for its draconian loan rates and for employing as many debt collectors as tellers.

Aurixidar
Aurixidar fulfills most of the standbys of red dragon personality - he is arrogant, violent, and imperious to the extreme. Aurixidar is, shockingly, more or less satisfied with his hoard. Perhaps merely seeing it grow as a result of the exorbitant rents of Goldscorn Bank is enough to satisfy his lust for more gold. At any rate, Aurixidar was fairly dormant until the Heist of 683.

At 1,100 years old, Aurixidar is one of the few mortal beings that is certain to have knowledge of the Cataclysm. However, he has kept silent about the subject for reasons he shares with no one. Aurixidar has given few audiences in the last few centuries. Most of these audiences have been with the Efreet of the Elemental Plane of Fire, who have been a staunch ally of Aurixidar.

History of the Bank
Goldscorn was established in the year 221 by Aurixidar. The half-breed dragon Drevabaorn, then only a few decades old, is said to have been instrumental in this process.

In the year 683, over 400 years after the banks creation, Goldscorn Bank suffered its first robbery. An unknown group of thieves managed to sneak into the hoard and escape alive. Although the exact details of what they stole is still uncertain, it is confirmed that they managed to steal a jar containing the Djinn sultana Nefertiri Al-Balil Ben Shalam, She Who Freed the Winds, Daughter of Hurricanes, Caliph of Clouds, etc., etc. The thieves then managed to escape to the Elemental Plane of Air, where they were sheltered by the grateful djinn.

Enraged, Aurixidar rallied his allies among the Efreet and waged war upon the Djinn. While the djinn were hard pressed on offense, the allies of Aurixidar were outmatched when on the Djinn's home plane.

News of the heist got out quickly leading to a large number of withdrawals before Aurixidar froze all of the assets of Goldscorn Bank. In response to this, Drevabaorn split off from Goldscorn, forming his own organization called the Silver Room.
