==History==

The Barroth is one of the animals of Guldar with the most history and deepest, confirmed connections to the continent. Originally, they were somewhat larger, and fiercer, similar to the [[Fire-Salamander]], and were likely considered a great threat by the [[Avarr]]. Ancient artwork depicts their battles with Barroth, but also what might be their taming. While the official record holds that the Barroth was tamed by the Eronidas first, some Maquixtl dispute this idea. Regardless, the Barroth’s role in society was truly embraced alongside the Eronidas. It became a beast of war, not of burden like the [[Aaltaar Bok]], and was ridden into many battles by the Eronidas as their cities warred against each other. The Barroth became a symbol of ferocity ~~much like the [[Jakpiriĝ]] did, but unlike it, was more numerous~~. When the time came for the Eronidas Exodus, Barroth were loaded among the fleets, braved the years of travel, and were ultimately scattered across the lands of Aloria upon the arrival of the Eronidas. It appears that during the long passage east, the former limited agricultural uses for Barroth greatly diminished among the Eronidas, and so they became solely creatures of the battlefield or great delicacies rarely eaten among the warrior people. However, soon after the Eronidas arrived, another group went in the opposite direction. The Maquixtl, who ultimately settled in Guldar, had little use for the wild Barroth that remained on the continent, but harvested their Genos and took to taming them instead. Among the Maquixtl, the animal’s agricultural uses flourished, while the adaptations the species provided the Maquixtl were invaluable. The animal thus has a broad reach and occupies different roles among the Eronidas and Maquixtl of Guldar.
