Dragon-kin

# *Synopsis:*

* Dragonkin, either a full-blooded or half-blooded draconic mix. possess an innate ability to perform the arcane to an unimaginable limit. Most dragonkin are humanoid in nature, unable to sport a full dragon form until they are Ancient and have gone through the trials. However, they do sport many draconic features like horns, fangs, and occasionally spikes and a tail. They are one of the oldest races in this world, first stemming from the dragons themselves before they evolved to adapt more to the more-modernized world.

# *Culture:*

* Dragonkin culture can differ based on the type of dragon they are, with some being more benevolent yet egotistical and others being ferocious and power-hungry. They all share one common trait: their love for shiny-things and the instinct to make a hoard. All dragons are led by the “Seven Ancients” who consist of one ancient dragon from each tribe.

# *Civilization:*

### Red Ancient Lamvee –

* The Red Ancient, Lamvee, resides within the fiery mountain of Knife’s Edge, slumbering until his kin need him again. Though he slumbers, none dare to threaten his rule and his rage.

### Blue Ancient Heytho –

* You will find the Blue Ancient, Heytho, intermingling with others of their kind within Knife’s Edge. Unlike other dragons, Heytho doesn’t see the goal in segregating their species- all he cares about is the innate arcane energy within his kind and teaching those (dragon or not) the way to master the arcane.

### Yellow Ancient Balor –

* In the cloudy billow above, the Yellow Ancient, Balor, resides in her roost, unknown to those that live below. She has little interest in the other tribes, however, she does assume the title of “Protector of the Sky”.

### Green Ancient Vaara –

* Within the depths of Gaia’s Forest lies the Green Ancient, Vaara. She is one of the beings blessed by Gaia herself and, in turn, Vaara protects Gaia’s lands. The Elves respect the dragon and work alongside Vaara to protect that which Gaia has gifted them.

### Violet Ancient Malignant –

* Malignant, the Violet Ancient and rival to Balor, also roosts within the sky– mainly within the more electrifying clouds. She has little to no interest in other tribes however does have a slight hatred of the Yellow Ancient and her tribe.

### White Ancient Lumos –

* Where the sun rises you will find Lumos, the White Ancient. When this dragon flies it’s almost like a light show in the sky as the light glistens off his scales. He is one of the more benevolent dragons, a complete opposite to Vastra. He resides in the wintery lands of the Ice Giants, granting them his strength in their time of need.

### Black Ancient Vastra –

* Vastra, the Black Ancient, hasn’t been seen on this plane of existence for a while– after taking major losses of her kin she retreated to a place unknown to try to regain their strength and repopulate. Currently, only Heytho knows how to summon her and will summon her if necessary.
* While she and her kin are known as one of the most vicious out of the dragons, they have a strange sense of loyalty to the other tribes and will direct their animosity to anyone who dares mess with them. (Though, that was before Vastra lost most of her kin.)
