Like many, I wondered what's up with Krosis. A masked Priest yet sealed completely unceremoniously alone, abandoned, no temple, no background, nothing.

And I propose a reason.

-His name is an apology word in Dragon.

-Word Wall for "Throw Voice" shout, which includes lines like "Hey Sheever butt" "Hey cheese brain!".

-Left to be forgotten and alone.

My theory is, while alive during the Dragon war, Krosis was an unserious Priest. He was granted power in the form of the mask, but his personality was a more joker type. Basically like the Dragon version of Cicero.

He was subsequently outcasted or shunned by his fellow cultists and priests alike, for being such an embarrassment to their image of control and power.

And so he was just dumped alone on a mountain, with his word wall of immature humor, and now he's "krosis" for his actions.

Being a priest of one element but using a staff of a different element is unique to him. Perhaps he was a "chill" person, a laidback joker, and didn't have the fiery passion of tyranny and control, so he had to use a staff of fireballs to actually exhibit some power.
