Ancients

The Ancients are a race of giant lizard-like creatures. Born in the older ages of Outhria, they have become powerful forces bolstering heavily powerful magics and tough, durable armor made from a substance known as iron sandstone. Ancients have been seen wandering around Myrnglen assumed to be the "Homeland" of these creatures or location of some kind of hive, and have spread (in the form of scouts and messengers, some warriors) in some areas around Outhrend. There is a wide variety of Ancients, all specializing in a form of ability.

Ancients mainly attack with their large, metallic claws, but can also swipe at them with their tails. Some ancients, like the Sentinel, have the ability to wield weapons, mainly polearms. All Ancients have the ability to fire a special type of magic bolt, depending on what type they are (fire shoots fireballs, storm uses lighting bolt, etc) Alpha and Sentinel can use any type of magic ability. Ancients also adapt to their environment, ice ancients are more of a blue colour, fire is red and orange etc, and therefore take reduced damage from that element, and increased from the opposite.
==Background==
The stoic race of the Ancients have been on Outhria before even events of the Maelstrom War. Their race has always dwelled into ancient powers, mainly of the elements except shadow and light. Without these elements, the Ancients are incredibly more powerful. Mostly, the Ancients are unaffaliated; a member of them, known as Alkindar Blackclaw has taken arms in the form of an Ancient regime. Now he rules over Myrnglen and hopes to expand his influence.
