Warders

The **Warders** were an old group of individuals who had the ability to command dragons. It was thanks to their efforts long ago that the Realm could finally begin moving towards an age of peace.

The Warders were incredibly powerful, wielding strong nature based magic, and of course, their signature ability to control dragons. This skill largely seems to come from their gauntlets, which are created in some of the most extreme temperatures before being forged and enchanted in a powerful warden's forge. Though these gauntlets grant the user powerful elemental magic and control over dragons, the latter at least is not a given ability. Using this skill comes from the dragon's own willingness to trust and listen to the Warder; if one were to attempt and use the gauntlets without these qualities, the summoned dragon would violently attack and most likely kill the user.

The Warders also had their own island home in the form of Warder's Watch, which contained many different features, from once thriving cities, a large arena used for sport and training, as well as a beacon to be lit in order to resummon the Warders should they ever be needed again.

However, the Warders appear to be largely extinct in the modern day, most having disappeared at an unknown point for similarly unknown reasons; Imani, who claims to be the last of the Warders, the only one to answer the call of the beacon.
