'''Molossus''' was an acclaimed [[Corumm]]ese operatic tenor and theater actor who is renowned for introducing the [[Corumm]]ese public to opera and popularizing theater with plays such as ''Gromeluta'' and ''Tyranno'', were he played Engelfärt the Flatulent and the [[Caphirian]] [[Imperator]] [[Magasevetus]], respectively. He was a prolific recorder of both entire operas and single arias, releasing some twenty opera albums. In 1997 he was awarded the Meritorious Golden Crane medal for his extensive work in the musical arts.  

Born in obscurity and of uncertain parentage, Molossus was raised by nuns in a [[Democratic Christian Church of Corumm and the East|church]] and named after a breed of dog from [[Sarpedon]]. Notable for his large size (he stood at 2.4 meters), bloated appearance and bulging eyes; Molossus suffered from a form of gigantism. His booming tenor voice was in large part thanks to his barrel sized chest and in his later years he suffered from morbid obesity, gout, diabetes and the odd extra vestigial limb. He died in during a vacation in [[Trossera]] from diabetic complications.
