Dracanthro

Dracanthro are a dragon-esque species inhabiting Raxus. They speak Veptimese.
==Physiology==
Dracanthro are a dragon-esque species, but they have a bipedal humaniod body. A dragon's head of smaller size is attached to a neck twice the length of a humans'. Due to its structure it can move like a snake. The snipes along the back of it are an easy way to tell whether the Dracanthro you're looking at is male or female, though it is impossible to tell as an Elf or a human.
The body of a Dracanthro is covered in scales as it is closely related to a Kos Dragon. Their tongue is thin like a viper's and it splits in two. Using their tongues, Dracanthro can taste the air as they are lacking in nostril's. Any potent smell aside the smell of decaying things will stun a Dracanthro completely if they stick out their tongue. Due to being dragon related, Dracanthro are all magical and because of this, they can taste emotions. They have a love of fear, rage is good, pity is passable and happiness is awful once they become an adult.
They have a total of 66 teeth. There are five frontal ones on each half of the mouth. The first three frontal ones (central and lateral incisors), loosen up the food for the back ones (molars) to grind it into bits, while the third teeth from the middle of the front are canines which literally tear the food into bits to help the back ones.
==Religion==
The Dracanthro worshiped their own unique faith until they were conquered by the Veptims and forced to learn the ways of their faith: The Doctrine. The ways of their previous religion were lost, though a minor cult has sprung up around a small part of their original religion that managed to be saved. An edited version is as follows: "We worship the Final Battle, when titans in dragon form will clash. Lighting will light up the skies as dragons the size of continents clash in the middle of a swirling maelstrom. One dragon will be gold while the other will be black."
==Alliance==
The Dracanthro hate the Veptims, but they hate the other species of Dawn even more. They are a part of the ever expanding Veptim Legion into Emria.
