the excavation of the ancient Roman city of Londinium.  Importing massive numbers of slaves from the orient, the red dragons used the construction of the London Underground as cover for their massive efforts, creating a city for their own underneath the gleaming lights of the crystal palace.  In the closing years of the 19th century, the wars between the septs of dragonkind cleared the halls of Londinium, and it became a lonely, haunted place, gutted by fires of Rinn's creation.  Now, it is a dark, haunted place, accessible only by a few entrances deep in the forgotten sub basements of London, and a plugged up drain deep inside a cesspool in the London sewer.<br/><br/>By the dawn of the 20th century, Rinn's strength had grown to unparalleled heights, even as she hid her barrenness.  The next great high for her came in 1941, when all of England burned in the blitz.  Even as the flames satisfied her, the vicious Wyvern engineered the burning of Dresden in retaliation, bragging that the flames from her mouth consume entire cities.  Ironically, the most beautiful thing that Rinn has ever encountered, the atomic bomb, proved to be what kept the flames at bay, forcing her to let the American invaders create their own empire.  In frustration, Rinn allowed the British Empire to collapse like a bunch of dominoes, laughing as the entire world went into the painful anarchy of decolonization, wrapping herself up more deeply in her warrens in Londinium, in her fallen empire.<br/><br/>Every 70 years or so, Rinn takes a new human as her host, completely wiping his or her mind and using the victim as an extension of her will.  Her current host is a man named Kent Relian, a prominent member of the defense lobby.  Unknown to others, he is also a savant with firearms, thanks to Rinn's intense training program.  Unknown to himself, he is an arsonist.  Rinn is careful to engineer fires that can be easily put out before they spread, so as not to alarm the increasingly skittish humans, but she still cannot deny her greatest ambition; to see the world burn.
