Bairanax

Bernafahand (Eh. "Bear-hunter")

A winged cold-drake, born sometime during the First Age. His mother was Fúlhilmo. He was nearly slain by a polar bear while making his escape from Angband in the War of Wrath, and consequently harbors an undying hatred (and appetite) for bears. As a result of his depredations, he has earned the equally intense hatred of the Beijabar, who are constantly trying to avenge themselves upon him. His lair is Ovir Hollow. There is no tradition of Bernafahand's death; he was still alive in T.A. 2589.
