Dragons

Dragons are said to be as old as the World itself. Mythical creatures, they nowadays reside mostly in the nation of Scorpus.

The breath of a Dragon is known to have magical properties. Many are the folk tales that claim they breathe fire, or that the breath of a Dragon can be told by their color. Truly, the color of a dragon's scales tells one no more than the skin of a human could. In the rare event that someone actually comes face to face with a Dragon, metallic scales are no better a sight than red or white ones.

Here is a list of all the dragons known in the campaign.

Historical Dragons
Dragons that myth, legend, folklore tales or history books talk about.

MalphegorMalphegor_2.jpg
The malign Dragon Malphegor breathed his eldritch breath into the lungs of his captives, turning them into Arcanely charged soldiers. This new race did his bidding for years, ransacking and spreading terror.

Portefex
Portefex, a dragon well-learned in both the arcane and philosophy, wrote several manuscripts in which he argued that Dragons are natural and just rulers, and that the "lesser" races would naturally seek to slay them. He wrote on politics, taught rituals and dark magic, art, and science, but all of it carried a tone of complete Dragon superiority. Very few of these writings still exist today.

Jakal
During the Dragon's Age, Hades approached the High Dragon Jakal, leader of the Red Dragon Cult. Hades offered the sacrifice and servitude of his Human Kingdom for 'protection' from the other dragons cults. Jakal accepted the deal and consumed humans and the lands resources to the point where the kingdom had all but vanished.

Luxaether
Under the flag of the white dragon Luxaether, a wild woman of unparalleled charisma named Hilde led her armies mercilessly across the lands, trampling anyone who dared stand against her and her patron. Luxaether had seen great peril to come from one of the humanoid races, but the vague visions had not revealed which of the lesser ones would be the harbinger of destruction. As it were, the White Dragon could only hope to thin out their numbers so that he could keep an eye on any sort of danger to come.

Luxaether would come to curse the lengthened lifespan he had bestowed on his Commander. Now over a century old and still going strong, Hilde would bring her axe down on the White Dragon's neck, after she found out that the murder of her progeny and the wars among the clans of her people had been orchestrated by Luxaether. This did not come without a price, for as the Dragon gasped its dying breath, the magic that kept Hilde young was lifted, and her body shriveled into nothing but dust and bones.
