[He has to forcibly shake himself out of his trance. Coran wanted descriptions...right! Descriptions!]
[Never to be outdone in showmanship, Darin clears his throat.]
Yes, yes...of course! The descriptions of the fabled paladins.
Now, some say that their noble visages have been lost to history...information creep and the like often distorting what is true and what is simply embellished. However, I have quite the discerning eye...and I can tell between fact and faction. I'll tell you now, what the legends say...
[He clears his throat once more.]
The first paladin, clad in verdant green, who casts a disdainful eye on those deemed unfit. This paladin, though short in stature, values intelligence over brute strength. Cross this warrior, and the last thing you see will be the glint of light reflected in her owlish eyes.
The second paladin, cloaked in blue, allows the universe to carry him as if by water but does not get swept up in its current. He may seem aloof, but he has a keen eye...especially for the finer things in this life.
The third paladin, armored in yellow, is a hulking mass of power and fortitude. But don't let his size fool you, for his heart is just as big. Enemies are often met with a disarming smile, for it is to that smile that they fall.
The fourth paladin, engulfed in red, with a mighty mane billowing out from the back of his head like fire being fed by the winds of change, casts a steely and intense gaze on his foes. Be on your guard, lest you be consumed and burned to ash!
And the fifth paladin, shrouded in black, leader of the group. His stoic facade almost impossible to crack...though legends say that there is a way to make the fearsome warrior smile. Only through what is known as 'patriarchal frivolities' can one truly disarm this leader amongst leaders. But be warned, should one attempt to do so, the result is something most unwelcoming.
[He pauses for a moment...then continues.]
But that's not all, dear friend. It is said that these five warriors are commanded by an even greater presence. A beautiful princess, hair as radiant as starlight guides their actions. However, this princess has a dark secret. Anger her, and she transforms into a hulking Archdragon whose deadly fire breath is known to burn the very sky and boil the seas away to nothing! Truly, she is a ruiner of worlds!

But, I digress.
