[[File:TeriarchSeal.jpg|thumb|290px|Seal of Teriarch, inspired by [[:File:Ryokabanner by Raoul Solomon.png|Ryoka's banner]] by Raoul Solomon.]]Teriarch is highly arrogant, greedy, and protective of his possessions, which are personality traits that appear to be shared by most Dragons shown in the story. He is incredibly world-weary, having lived for countless millennia, been everywhere, and done everything, only to see all his efforts inevitably come to dust. This has understandably caused him to become a recluse in the present-day, preferring to spend years sleeping in his sanctum rather than become entangled with the affairs of the world once again. While Teriarch often seems like a grumpy old man, his gruff countenance hides a kind heart, with a particular soft spot for headstrong young women.
