Compendium - Sources->Dungeons & Dragons->Lorwyn: First Light

Lorwyn counterpart, Eirdu, Isilu avoids interactions with Shadowmoor’s denizens. Those who look carefully might spy Isilu along Shadowmoor’s horizon, its neck rising majestically to showcase a head that

They believe that where there is quiet, there is the moon’s inspiration. To represent Isilu in your game, use the Ancient Black Dragon stat block.
