	The Silent King is a ~~huge white tiger,~~ one of the ~~four free~~ [[Dreadgod]]s on Cradle. ~~Its [[Dreadgod cult]] are~~ the [[Silent Servants]].		The Silent King is a one of the 5 [[Dreadgod]]s on Cradle. It resembles a white tiger with an ominous halo about its head, and uses Dream madra. Despite being physically the weakest of the dreadgods, it makes up for it through its terrifying ability to enslave the minds of others. It is followed by the [[Silent Servants]]. It is the most subtle and insidious of the dreadgods.

Like the dreadbeasts of the Desolate Wilds, they were warped and twisted by their own powers.. .They're scattered all over the world. They burrow into a secure location and wait for decades...but when they wake up, they're hungry. Fortunately for humanity, no two have woken at the same time in centuries. But the last time they did, they destroyed the original Blackflame Empire.” ([[Skysworn]], ch 7)</blockquote>		<blockquote>“They are...disasters.

The Silent King, like the other Dreadgods, is the result of research and experimentation conducted in the [[Labyrinth]] beneath [[Sacred Valley]], some millennia ago. The Dreadgods are about two or three thousand years old. They developed long after the time that [[Ozmanthus Arelius]] lived. They are a failed research experiment, unintentionally created by a researcher dubbed Subject One. Dreadgods formed as a result of experimentation in hunger aura and [[Dreadbeasts\|dreadbeasts]]. Four of the Dreadgods escaped the supposedly secure underground formation, but Subject One is imprisoned there. <br>
