History
Morell Thule is known as the Lord of Dreams. He is one of two children created by the strange combination of power between
Quellious the Tranquil and
Cazic-Thule the Faceless. It is said that Quellious and Cazic-Thule battled for eons over the realm of dreams. Neither ever gained any advantage over the other, so each sacrificed a portion of their power in an attempt to claim the realm. Morell Thule, much like his mother, seeks peace in the dream world. His sister, Terris-Thule, is known as the Dream Scorcher and seeks to torment the unconcious mortals as her father would through fear and terror.
Morell Thule's animosity towards his father led to his friendship with
Mithaniel Marr and the origin of the
Barbarians and
Frogloks. The ancient texts speak of a time before
Humans when the Marr Twins walked across the lands of
Norrath searching for a cause to champion and embrace with their divinity.
Innoruuk, already having
corrupted the
Elves and Kedge, sought to do the same with
Tarew Marr's children. This time Innoruuk employed the help of the god of fear,
Cazic-Thule.
Erollisi Marr saw through Innoruuk's deceptions and escaped the
Teir'Dal armies, fleeing to
Tunare's children in the Eldarr Forest. Cazic-Thule sent
serpents,
ghosts, and various frightful creatures to capture Mithaniel Marr. He was too strong of will, and could not be terrorized by the Faceless'
minions. They were successful, however, in luring Mithaniel to the
swamps of Norrath where an army of
Trolls,
lizard men, and creatures of forgotten history were able to subdue him.
Terris Thule, seeking approval of her father, was able to enter Mithaniel's dreams and steal the gift of life from his body.
Morell Thule was able to steal the gift of life from his sister, infuriating his father as well as the Prince of Hate. Knowing that his father and sister would soon find him, he divided the gift of life in half and scattered one portion across the
swamps of southern Tunaria, which gave life to the
Frogloks of the world. He then visited
Erollisi Marr in her dreams and supplanted the second half within her. The
Elves quickly realized that the daughter of the
god among them was pregnant. The Elves escorted her to an uninhabited area of the frozen north were they could hide and protect her. Meanwhile, Morell Thule visited the growing Frogloks in their dreams giving them visions of their imprisoned creator, therefore instilling the sense of honor and valor that would lead the young race to take up weapons and learn the magic necessary to assault
Cazic-Thule's realm and free
Mithaniel Marr. For many years, the Frogloks battled the Faceless' minions, but they were unable to reach their father. Eventually, a new army arrived on the borders of swamps to aid the Frogloks. They were the Northmen,
Barbarians, the children of Erollisi Marr, guided by visions from Morell Thule as well. Together they were successful in freeing Mithaniel Marr after defeating the Avatar of Fear. So, without Morell Thule, it is entirely possible that the Frogloks, Barbarians,
Humans, and
Erudites would never have existed.
Appearance
In most lore, the Lord of Dreams is a seven foot tall, white
centaur with a youthful
Elf-like face and flowing white mane. His silver hooves sparkle as they hit the ground he walks upon and a
unicorn-like horn of pure light grows from his forehead. It is said his eyes shine like emeralds.
Among the Pantheon
Morell Thule makes his home in the Plane of Dreams. He is the son of
Quellious and
Cazic-Thule, and is the brother of
Terris-Thule. Morell is one of many
gods who have yet to return to
Norrath during the
Age of Turmoil.
